Synopsis[]

Foot Clan HQ. Fishface grovels before Shredder, telling him they know the Turtles are in the sewer, they just don’t know where. Shredder orders him to find their hideout and Fishface assures him he will. He’s been watching the Turtles and thinks he’s found a weakness. He swears he will not fail and Shredder says he won’t.

Later, in the sewer tunnels, the Turtles are on their skateboards following a shortcut that Leonardo swears will bring them right up by the pizza place. He is in the middle of explaining that it’s at the end of the tunnel, but something brings them all to a screeching halt. It’s Leatherhead, sound asleep.

Donatello urges everyone to go back, though Michelangelo tells him to relax, that Leatherhead is their buddy. Raphael then says no way they’re going back because they’re almost to their destination. Leo feels they can slip past the alligator and Don finally agrees, as long as no one makes a sound because it’s always his face that gets grabbed.

Using an overhead pipe, the Turtles proceed to move silently over Leatherhead. Suddenly Donatello’s T-Phone rings. He quickly answers April’s call, but it’s too late as Leatherhead has been awakened. The alligator grabs Donatello’s face and flings him against a wall. Mikey and Leo pick Don up and Raph takes April’s call as they start to run, telling the girl that Don will have to call her back.

A few minutes later the Turtles are exiting the tunnels via a manhole. Mikey states that he feels sorry for Leatherhead because he must be lonely down there by himself. Raph is unconcerned, as he’s focused on pizza. Right then they spot a scooter riding delivery guy zooming towards them with several boxes strapped to the back of the bike. Leo is surprised because they haven’t even ordered yet, but Don says he doesn’t think he’s delivering…

He's actually escaping. Behind him, on motorcycles, are Fishface and a gang of Foot Soldiers. Leaping onto their skateboards, the Turtles give chase, unsure as to why the gang is after the pizza guy. The skateboards aren’t as fast as the motorized vehicles and Leo is afraid they’re going to lose the group. Don fires a grappling hook, which catches onto the back of a Foot motorcycle. The other Turtles latch onto each other and are pulled along, but are forced to use evasive maneuvers to avoid being hit by passing trucks.

Just when they think they’re safe, they come upon a board stacked against a row of trashcans. The Turtles hit the ramp and go flying, but conveniently come down on the backs of the Foot Soldiers motorcycles. Commandeering the motorcycles by kicking the Foot off of them, the Turtles go after Fishface, who is gaining on the pizza guy.

The pizza guy begs to be left alone and promises to say nothing, but Fishface just laughs. Hearing a crash, Fishface turns and sees the Turtles coming up fast behind him. Raph flings one of his sai into Fishface’s motorcycle wheel, making him wipe out.

Fishface races off on foot, vowing to make the Turtles pay. Raph jokes that he looks like a fish, but runs like a chicken. The Turtles start to leave, but the pizza guy calls for them to wait up because he wants to thank them. Leo is surprised the boy isn’t afraid of them, but is assured they are a better sight than the fish guy. When Leo asks why he was after the guy, he explains that he saw them robbing some place. Though he swore he wouldn’t say anything, they came after him anyway.

As a thank you, the pizza guy offers them pizza, which they gladly accept. He rides off, leaving the happy Turtles behind. Soon though, the pizza guy drives around a corner to where Fishface is waiting. Rather than fleeing, he removes his helmet, revealing himself to be in cahoots with the villain. Fishface displays a tracking device and the little tracker itself is shown to be stuck to the side of the pizza box the Turtles are taking into the sewers with them.

Shortly after, the Turtles are in their lair, recounting the story to Splinter. Since they are also stuffing their mouths, he has a hard time understanding what they’re saying. Unbeknownst to them, the Foot have entered the sewers. Fishface gloats that just around the corner they will find their prey and tells the soldiers to take no prisoners.

A rumbling sound startles Splinter and the Turtles and when they spin around, they spot Mikey returning to the lair on his skateboard. Don greets him, saying he can’t believe he’s given away his last slice. Mikey says it was tough, but he hopes it cheers ‘him’ up.

Meanwhile, Fishface bursts into what he believes is the Turtles’ lair and then comes to a sudden stop. The ‘he’ to whom Mikey referred was Leatherhead, who has the pizza box with it’s tracker. The freshly awakened Leatherhead roars and attacks, sending Foot soldiers flying, and a frantic Fishface shouts for a retreat. Back at the lair, Raph opines that it was a waste of a slice and wonders if alligators even like pizza. Mikey concedes the being an alligator, he might have preferred fish.
