Voice-over introduction

Leonardo: Well, here we are. The Shredder's heralds bearing down on us. And their master waiting in the wings. Looking back, I think the Tribunal trained us for the very worst. But I'm not sure even they could have anticipated this. The original Shredder is risen from the dead. The worst evil to ever walk the Earth, walks it again. He and the Mystics blasted their way into Foot headquarters. And his newest victim is destined to be Karai. But she thinks she actually has a chance against him, using some sort of weapons technology based on magic and mysticism that she and her people have been working on. But with the ease that the Shredder infiltrated her stronghold, it is clear she doesn't have a prayer. He's going to wipe her out. And, after that, we're next.

Plot Synopsis

The episode begins with Karai claiming the she is armed with weaponry capable of defeating the Tengu Shredder and the turtles about to face the Foot Mystics. Karai makes the first strike against the Shredder, with her sword being resistant to his magic attacks. Meanwhile, the turtles do very well in their fight with the mystics, that is until the Earth Mystic covers them all in dirt and hardens it, cutting off any chance of escape for the turtles. The Shredder fights back against Karai by using his magic to pick her up and slam her into a support beam, which knocks off her helmet. The mystics thank the turtles for setting them free (see Good Genes, Part 2 for how they set the mystics free.) and reveal to the turtles that they were the same mystics they fought in Return to New York, Part 2. Leonardo uses his super strength obtained from the Ninja Tribunal to break free from his rock prison and breaks the other turtles out as well. Back at the fight between Karai and the Shredder, Karai contacts Dr. Chaplin and requests support from him and his men. Chaplin promises he will be there soon, just after he makes a few final modifications to his latest mystical weapon. Having to wait, Karai is attacked even more by the Shredder and is knocked to the ground. When the Shredder is about to move in for the kill, Karai throws a capsule of mysterious light blue liquid at the Shredder, stunning him for a short time. Karai gets back up on her feet and takes the advantage in the fight by slashing Shredder with her sword and knocking him against the wall. The Shredder begs for mercy, but karai shows none and stabs him in the chest with her sword, causing the Shredder,s helmet to come off. As a last stand tactic, the Shredder uses his magic to disguise himself as the Utrom Shredder, Karai's father. The Shredder's tactic worked and he gets back up and pulls the sword out of his chest, revealing that no damage was done to it. The Shredder then uses his magic to transform Karai's sword into a demon serpent. The serpent attacks Karai, while the Shredder puts his helmet back on. The serpent closes in for the kill, but before he can devour Karai, Michelangelo uses his super speed obtained from the tribunal to save Karai. Mikey is then blown back to the front of the room by the Wind Mystic and the Fire Mystic traps the turtles in a circle of fire. Finally, the Water Mystic creates a wall of ice, blocking the turtles from assisting Karai. Karai continues to avoid the serpent's attacks, while the turtles use their powers obtained from the ninja tribunal to defeat the mystics. The Shredder kicks Karai, and while she's stunned, the serpent wraps itself around her. The Shredder is about to put an end to Karai, but she manages to duck down, causing the Shredder to kill his own serpent with a slash to the throat, resulting in decapitation. The dead serpent's corpse transforms into a broken sword. Karai attempts to attack the Shredder, but he uses his magic to hold Karai in place and strip her of her armor. The turtles break through the ice wall and show the Shredder that his mystics have been defeated and to let Karai go. The Shredder simply laughs and informs the turtles that the mystics were the weakest of his minions. The Shredder then uses his magic to turn the top floor of Foot Headquarters into a graveyard. Seconds later, several zombies and demons begin to burst out of the ground and attack the turtles and Karai. Karai finally puts her hatred for the turtles aside and they begin their battle against the Shredder's minions. At first the turtles and Karai do well against the minions, that is until they find out the Shredder has the power of revival and can keep bringing his minions back. The turtles and Karai are on the brink of defeat, until Dr. Chaplin and a few Foot Ninjas arrive to aid them using ectoplasmic blasters. The Shredder sends even more minions to attack, but Chaplin's new weapons prove to be highly effective against them, as the weapons cause the minions to disintegrate and be unable to be revived by the Shredder. Karai grabs an ectoplasmic sword form Chaplin and makes her way toward the Shredder, eliminating any minions in her way. Despite being able to put down his minions for good, The Shredder claims that the ectoplasmic weapons won't be nearly enough to stop him. The Shredder uses his magic to create a sword of his own and uses it to engage Karai in battle. Karai's ectoplasmic sword proves to actually work against the Shredder, actually damaging him when he is slashed in the chest. Although this effective weapon is destroyed by the Shredder after he takes a hit from it. Karai is pinned down by the Shredder's minions and the Shredder is about to deal the finishing blow against Karai. The Shredder proceeds to finish Karai, but before he can, he gets blasted by Chaplin, this creates a massive gap in the Shredder's chest. The Shredder uses his magic to heal his wounds and slashes Karai with his sword. While not dead, Karai is very injured and falls unconscious after taking the slash. After Karai's defeat, the Shredder has all his minions surround the turtles to cut off any chance of escape. He also has his minions kill the foot ninjas and destroy all the ectoplasmic weaponry, so the turtles have no chance at all against him. Instead of fighting the minions, the turtles fire four mystical blasts out of their weapons at the Shredder. While this does catch the Shredder off guard, he still manages to block the blasts with his magic. The turtles calm down and focus, creating a mystical shield that protects them from the Shredder's attacks. The magical shield then engulfs the turtles in a yellow light, turning them into dragons. As dragons, the turtles defeat all the Shredder's minions and prove to be much tougher against the Shredder, since his magic is now useless against the turtles. Outside foot headquarters, hundreds of people are surrounding the building and wonder what is going on up there. A police officer tells everyone to move out and there is nothing to see here, but that changes when he and the citizens see four dragons flying above the building. The mystics finally get back up and rush to aid their master, but they are too late. The turtles blast the Shredder and his mystics with their fire breaths, sending the demons falling through dozens of floors. The turtles are changed back to normal and pick up the unconscious Karai. The turtles escape via the turtle copter and get Karai to safety. After the turtles leave, the Shredder and his mystics make their way back to the top floor, only to find that the turtles have fled. The Shredder says he has no need for Karai anymore and that his next priority will be to reshape the world in his own dark image. Back in the turtle copter, the turtles look over Karai and wonder what will become of her. The episode end with a nasty storm brewing, possibly foreshadowing the dark future ahead.
