If this happened to any of the others he would say something except for maybe in metal head but donnie was being a cocky ass hole the whole time! Ha! I built the machine! how does feel to be stood up by a toaster raph! Or when he made it beat raphael up! WHAT A JERK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I see your point, and I agree with you. But, on the other hand, it is usually a little hard for them to get on common grounds with Raph, because he is a hot-head. Ever since the 2003 series, Raph has been known as a hothead and somewhat violent. Though in this episode he was a bit more levelheaded, and the other turtles should have sympathized with him, it is usually hard for them, and I don't think they could have readjusted so quickly. Quickly as in, Raph was even more hotheaded at the beginning of the episode, and only in the middle and the end was he was cool.

Let me just say on this particular matter, it's so much easier to judge someone when you're not in their shoes. Let's face it: siblings, and brothers especially, are going to say mean things and hit each other and fight and squabble and be insensitive, and all that lovely stuff. I would find it hard to believe if you told me you had never been mean to a sibling before. Unless you're an only child, of course, for obvious reasons.

These mutant turtles are just experiencing sibling rivalry on a more...intense level. ^-^  Which really isn't that shocking, considering they know martial arts and are in possession of authentic Japanese weapons. Not to mention smoke bombs and high-tech gear. They're not jerks--okay, maybe they are a little bit--they're just being annoying brothers. Which I can definitely relate to. OK I totally get what your saying I will admit to trolling.... sometimes: )
