History[]

Touch and Go[]

In the aftermath of the Triceraton invasion, many of New York City's residents wary of aliens. Taking a shortcut during a race with Leonardo, Raphael drops down to the streets and is seen by a mob. Thinking him an alien, they give chase. Trying to stay away from them, Raph inadvertently runs down a dead-end alley. Just before the mob turns down the same alley a door opens, and an elderly woman steps out. The woman, named Mrs. Morrison is blind. She calls out to ask who's there and Raphael answers with his name. Mrs. Morrison thinks he's the boy sent by Mr. Rosetti to help her move and invites Raph inside. He's reluctant but hears the mob growing close and goes into the apartment. When the mob reaches the alley, they ask if she's seen any aliens. Mrs. Morrison laughs and says no. Once Raph is inside the old lady's apartment, he helps her move some large boxes. Raphael learns that she is being forced out of her home by the bank, as she has run out of money since her husband passed away. All she has is her cat, Lucy. After the boxes are moved around, Raph sits down to tea with Mrs. Morrison. Lucy the cat takes a shine to the Turtle and Mrs. Morrison says the cat doesn't like many people.

When Raph prepares to leave, Mrs. Morrison invites him to come again some time. Having already developed a fondness for the woman, Raph is touched by the invitation. Raph gets back to the lair just before Michelangelo and Splinter return from their adventure. When Mikey displays the briefcase filled with money that he took from Hun, it gives Raph an idea. Later, he returns to Mrs. Morrison's apartment with the briefcase. Raph knocks on the door and when the kindly old lady answers the door, the ninja hands her the briefcase filled with cash. He tells her that someone left it on her doorstep, and that she has a guardian angel who wants her to stay right where she belongs.
