You know TMNT has a long history of not having perfectly happy endings for story arcs. Kirby King put it best:



As nice as a ton of happy endings would be, we shouldn't expect TMNT to end too happy, or it would be too strange. Even the TV show so far has been riddled with unhappy and bittersweet endings to plot arcs.
 * Leatherhead lost many decades of his lifespan in Dimension X, and is now old and grey.
 * Timothy's storyline has been one long unhappy train wreck.
 * Metalhead died.
 * Raph and Slash were painfully alienated for much of season 2, and even after they reconciled, Slash didn't want to come home again.
 * Irma turned out to be a Kraang spy and major villain, and was never April's friend.
 * The woman April thought to be her mother turned out to be a fake, and April had to kill her.
 * One bad thing after another keeps happening to Karai.
