Each page represents a day in the life of the featured character, given in snippets of time.
- Michelangelo's Day: He wakes at a little after seven a.m. and eats breakfast (Fruity O's). In the middle of the day he's seen playing video games with Ice Cream Kitty, who tries to get a turn but Mikey is on a roll. At six twenty-eight p.m. he's seen getting stomped by Rocksteady. At a little after nine p.m. he's back in the sewers with his brothers and Casey Jones.
- Leonardo's Day: An early riser, he's up at six-fifteen a.m. and goes to meditate, after which he practices until past noon. In the afternoon he hears a news report that mutants have stolen the priceless Bay diamond and orders his brothers to investigate. In the evening he saves Mikey from Rocksteady, then goes home and meditates before bed.
- Casey's Day: He is shown sleeping through every one of his classes at school, much to the amusement and/or annoyance of his classmates. In the evening he helps Leo save Mikey from Rocksteady, then goes home and sleeps through his homework.
- Donatello's: His alarm goes off at 7:00 a.m. and he wakes up. One minute later his alarm clock is busted by Raphael's sai. He then eats breakfast, sharing the Fruity O's with Mikey, and reading as he eats. In the evening he trashes Bebop before he can make off with the stolen diamond. At ten forty-five p.m., Don's in bed with a book when Raphael breaks his bedside lamp with a sai.
- Raphael's Day: The sound of Donatello's alarm wakes him and he throws his sai at Donnie's alarm. He then grumbles through breakfast and in the afternoon plays video games with Mikey (displacing Ice Cream Kitty). In the evening he gets the drop on Bebop and Rocksteady before they can make off with the Bay diamond. When the thieving pair run off, Raph compliments Donnie on trashing Bebop and feigns ignorance as to why Donnie is mad at him (the alarm clock incident). After he goes home, he busts Donnie's lamp so he can get to sleep.
- Bebop's Day: He is awakened by Rocksteady's snoring as a TV news report in the background talks about the diamond exhibit. In the afternoon he and Rocksteady cruise around town and Bebop complains that he can't think of anything to do, despite radio advertisements for the diamond exhibit. When Rocksteady begins to offer a suggestion, Bebop cuts him off. Later he's hit in the face by a flying newspaper and the advertising for an exhibit of the Bay diamond and gets an idea. That evening he gets trashed by the Turtles when he and Rocksteady try to swipe it and runs away.
- Ice Cream Kitty's day: She wakes up and tries to play video games only to have Mikey and the Turtles hog the TV. Angry, she goes out into the city and sees Bebop and Rocksteady drive by. From a rooftop, she throws a newspaper in their faces with an advertisement for the Bay diamond exhibit and then at home later, turns the TV to the news of the Bay diamond robbery. The turtles see the newscast and leave, after which Ice Cream Kitty has the entire evening to play video games while they're gone. When they return home, she goes back to the freezer and goes to bed.
