[Opening sequence and theme song.]
[Michelangelo enters the lair’s living room. He is wearing an apron and chef’s hat and stirring something in a bowl. On the couch, his three brothers are watching TV. A quick closeup on the screen shows a dinosaur.]
Michelangelo "Whoa. Outstanding monster flick, dudes. [Back to the screen, a pair of dinosaurs menace April O’Neil.] Hey, that Godzilla wannabe's after April."
[April runs until she’s behind a man standing at a computer console. She is then shown holding a microphone.]
April O'Neil "As you can see, these robotic dinosaurs are the most realistic ever built. The Natural History Museum hopes they will increase public awareness about paleontology."
Leonardo "You see, Michelangelo? It's just the new dinosaur display at the museum."
Michelangelo "Man, it's a good thing I didn't see that in person, or I'd be tangling with that enormo robot right now."
Donatello "Well, that's why I don't need to run myself ragged fighting like the rest of you. I use my brains."
[Raphael laughs.]
Raphael "Right. To invent electric pepperoni slicers?"
Donatello "A lot of my inventions actually work, you know."
Leonardo "Sure, Donatello. But face it, high-tech gimmickry is no substitute for ninja skill and cunning."
Donatello "Hey, I could take on Shredder myself if I had to."
Raphael "Ha! Keep dreaming, Donatello."
[A sudden loud warbled beeping fills the lair.]
Michelangelo "What the heck is that?"
Donatello "It's my early-warning system. [He races into his lab and to a machine standing against one wall. He presses some buttons and the sound stops.] The system's detected a vibration under the Earth."
Michelangelo "Dudes, you don't suppose..?"
Donatello "It could be Shredder heading up from the Technodrome."
Raphael "Are you sure this heap of junk isn't pulling our collective legs?"
Donatello "There's only one way to find out. Come on."
[The Turtles race out of the lair. Cut to a government research lab. Inside, Shredder is speaking to a man in a lab coat. Standing nearby are Bebop, Rocksteady and a few Foot soldiers.]
Scientist "There. It's finished. And so am I. I should never have gotten involved with you, Shredder."
Shredder "At last, my Micro Blaster is complete. [He holds up a tiny cylinder.] This tiny weapon is powerful enough to destroy an entire building with a single blast."
Rocksteady "Ooh, goody."
[Bebop picks up the Micro Blaster.]
Bebop "I can hardly wait to play with it. [Rocksteady tries to grab it from him and they struggle.] I wanna play with it!"
Rocksteady "No fair, I saw it first."
[There is a snapping sound and Shredder takes the Micro Blaster away from them. There are sparks coming out of it.]
Shredder "You idiots! You've broken it! [The scientist flees the room.] Get that coward back here."
Bebop "Uh, sure thing, boss."
[Shredder’s comlink beeps. He holds it up and Krang appears on the monitor.]
Krang "So, what's the holdup, Shredder?"
Shredder "I had it within my grasp, but these boneheads bungled it again."
Krang "Oh, yes, blame the help. Just get that thing working or don't come back."
Shredder "All right, all right. I may just have to try to fix it myself. [He mutters.] You mess of ganglia."
Krang "I heard that."
[The scientist runs out of the building. Bebop and Rocksteady exit a moment later.]
Rocksteady "All right! We're hot on his trail now. "
[The Turtles have arrived in an alley across from the research lab.]
Donatello "The vibrations stopped at the government research lab."
[They creep through a hallway inside the building.]
Leonardo "We've searched three floors and we haven't seen any sign of Shredder or anything else, for that matter."
Raphael "Face it, propeller-head, your early-warning system is a bust."
Donatello "No way. I'm telling you, behind one of these doors, we're gonna find… [He looks into a room.] …Shredder."
[Shredder is working with a laser and hears Donatello.]
Shredder "The Turtles! Destroy them!"
[The Foot soldiers run towards the Turtles. They begin fighting and Donatello gets past them to head for Shredder.]
Leonardo "Donatello, no!"
[Donatello kicks Shredder down, but he rises quickly and grapples with the Turtle.]
Shredder "Oh, you fool. Let me go."
[Donatello throws Shredder against a control panel, which activates a pair of lasers that begins shooting all over the room. The other Turtles defeat the Foot soldiers and turn around.]
Raphael "Uh-oh. Incoming!"
[A laser cuts right through one of the Foot soldier robots. Another cuts the lab table in half and the Micro Blaster rolls off onto the floor, and then under a machine cabinet. Donatello continues to fight with Shredder.]
Shredder "My Micro Blaster!"
[Shredder tosses Donatello into an electrified machine, which electrocutes him for several seconds. One of the lasers cuts a hole in the floor in front of him before it stops blasting.]
Leonardo "Donatello!"
[The electricity cuts out leaving Donatello looking woozy.]
Michelangelo "Dude, are you okay?"
[Donatello collapses against him. A pair of security guards enter the room at a run.]
Guard 1 "What's going on here?"
Leonardo "We’ve gotta get him out of here."
[Together he and Michelangelo drag Donatello between them. Shredder runs over to the machine which shocked Donatello and looks under it. The guards run towards him and he jumps down into the hole in the floor. The Turtles push Donatello into an air duct and then enter it as well. Cut to outer space, where three Triceraton Star Cruisers fly towards Earth.]
Triceraton 1 "What an incredibly backward planet."
Triceraton 2 "Conquering it should be no problem, Captain Zorax."
Zorax "And by the time we're finished, there'll be nothing left but a cinder."
[The Turtles have made it back to the lair with Donatello, who lies unconscious on a mat.]
Leonardo "Is he going to be okay, Master Splinter?"
[Splinter squats next to Donatello, examining him.]
Splinter "I'm afraid it's too soon to tell, Leonardo."
Raphael "He should never have tried to take on Shredder alone."
[Donatello’s eyes suddenly snap open. When he speaks, his voice is rougher and deeper.]
Donatello "Shredder? [He jumps up and claps his hands down on Leonardo’s shoulders.] Why did you stop me? I nearly had him."
Raphael "Yeah. Hey, the only thing you had was a warm, iridescent glow from head to foot, pal."
Donatello "I must stop Shredder."
[Donatello pushes past Leonardo and heads for the exit. Leonardo and Raphael run to get in front of him. Michelangelo wraps his arms around Donatello from behind.]
Michelangelo "This dude's gone wackola."
Leonardo "Can you do anything for him, sensei?"
Splinter "Donatello, look at me. Clear your mind of these vicious thoughts, my pupil."
Donatello "Vicious? Shredder's the one who turned you into a rat. Shredder's the one who tries to take over the world every week. [He pulls out of Michelangelo’s arms.] Shredder's responsible for everything evil that ever happens. He's out there somewhere, and I'm going to get him!"
[He runs towards another exit, but Raphael and Michelangelo race to cut him off.]
Raphael "No, you aren't in shape to do anything."
Michelangelo "Yeah, you've had a major shock, dude."
Donatello "Yes, perhaps you're right. I could use a little rest."
[He heads into another room.]
Michelangelo "I'd say the cheese has slipped off our amigo's pizza."
[Donatello looks back and then darts into his lab. He knocks a stack of comics off of a table.]
Donatello "Now to get to work. [He looks at himself in a mirror and yanks off his mask.] I'm sick of these stupid masks. Criminals are a superstitious, cowardly lot. I need a new disguise which will strike utter fear into their hearts. [He looks down at a comic called “Midnight Avenger”. It has a picture of a superhero in a cape and cowl.] Especially Shredder."
[He picks up the comic book. Cut to Shredder, who is standing in the mouth of the alley where the Turtles had been earlier.]
Shredder "I must get back inside that manufacturing plant. [There are four security guards now standing in front of the building.] Thanks to those meddling turtles, the security's been beefed up. I'm going to need some help."
[He walks off. Shift back to the lair. Splinter and three of the Turtles stand at the doorway to Donatello’s room.]
Leonardo "I'm worried, Master Splinter. That shock may have pushed Donatello completely over the edge."
Raphael "Yeah. He's really changed."
[Michelangelo enters the room and walks over to the bed. A blanket is pulled all the way up and there are lumps underneath. He yanks the blanket off and discovers pillows.]
Michelangelo "I'll say. He's turned into a bunch of fluffy pillows."
Raphael "Where'd he go?"
[They run out to another room and then suddenly stop.]
Donatello "Now I'm ready to take on Shredder as the most feared creature of the night: [He steps out of his lab wearing dark tights, a utility belt, and a cape and cowl.] The Dark Turtle."
Michelangelo "Whoa. Way cool entrance, dude."
Leonardo "Donatello, have you lost your mind?"
Donatello "On the contrary. I'm saner than I ever was."
Raphael "Well, you're staying here until it wears off."
Donatello "I don't have time for these games. A little Turtle Smoke will handle you."
[He tosses down a turtle shaped device which spins and throws out smoke. The Turtles and Splinter cough and drop to their knees. Donatello, wearing a gas mask, runs past them.]
Donatello "Shredder's out there somewhere, and I've got to stop him. [He removes the gas mask and races away, leaving the others still coughing as smoke continues to billow.] Shredder, prepare to face the wrath of The Dark Turtle."
[Still coughing, Splinter stands up.]
Splinter "We must get rid of that smoke bomb."
[He covers his nose with his arm and grabs the smoke bomb. Running to a pipe in the wall, he tosses the smoke bomb inside and closes the cover.]
Leonardo "We've gotta stop Donatello before someone gets hurt."
[They run out of the lair and soon locate Donatello, who is walking down the street. The other Turtles stand in his way.]
Donatello "Why are you trying to stop me? You know what a menace Shredder is."
Leonardo "Because you can't take him on alone. You could get hurt."
Donatello "The only one who's going to get hurt… [He jumps at them and knocks all three down.] is Shredder."
[He takes another turtle shaped device, this time a grappling hook, from his belt and throws it upwards. It wraps around a flag pole and he swings up just as his brothers charge at him. Their heads collide and they all grunt in pain.]
Raphael "I think I liked him better when he was the meek, brainy one."
Leonardo "I'd say he's gone totally bats."
Michelangelo "Better not, dude. Could be trademark infringement."
[Michelangelo’s turtlecom beeps and he takes it from his belt.]
Splinter "Turtles, you must return to the lair at once. It's urgent."
Leonardo "But, Donatello…"
Splinter "Hurry, Leonardo."
[Cut to a pier and a building between a warehouse and bait & tackle store. Inside, Shredder meets with a local gangster and some of his men.]
Wolf Jaxon "I don't want anything to do with you, Shredder."
Shredder "If you refuse to help me, I'll… [The sound of a cocking gun stops him.] …have to keep the ridiculously high fee I was going to pay you."
Jaxon "All right, you got my interest."
Shredder "I want a dozen of your best men."
[At an intersection somewhere in the city, the appearance of the Triceraton star cruisers causes drivers to swerve, tires screeching and horns honking. The trio of star cruisers land. The door in the side of one slides open and a gangplank lowers as two armed Triceratons walk out.]
Zorax "I claim this planet in the name of the Triceraton Empire."
[The three Turtles return to the lair to find the loud warbled beeping is once more sounding.]
Michelangelo "What is it dudes?"
Splinter "I believe it is Donatello's early-warning alarm system."
[They enter Donatello’s lab and Leonardo walks over to a machine that shows three red dots blinking on its monitor.]
Leonardo "Whatever it is, the problem seems to be in the midtown area. Let's go."
Raphael "Wait, wait, wait, wait. You mean you're actually gonna trust this thing?"
Leonardo "Why not?"
Raphael "Well, for one thing, the guy who invented it is currently swinging around the city in his underwear."
[A man walks down the street munching on a candy bar. Suddenly a large thief comes up behind him and trains a weapon on his back.]
Wallet Thief "Freeze, buddy. Give me your wallet."
[The man hands over his wallet.]
Donatello "Leave him alone, you insect. [He swings down and kicks the thief in the back, knocking him flat. Donatello then walks over to him.] All right, scuzz bucket, where can I find the Shredder?"
Thief "I don't know what you're talking about."
Donatello "I think you do."
[He pulls a lever on a square box attached to his belt. It causes a round shell, with lasers all around it, to spin. The object sounds like the buzzing of a chainsaw. He uses the saw to cut a lamp post. When it falls, he picks it up and uses the end to snag the thief’s jacket before lifting the man high off the ground.]
Donatello "Now, talk."
Thief "Okay, okay. I heard a couple of Wolf Jaxon's boys say they had a job to do for Shredder. [Donatello leans the thug and the post against the wall, the man still dangling in the air.] Hey, come back. You can't leave me hanging here."
[Shredder and his newly hired goons drive up and park across from the manufacturing plant. They all get out of the car.]
Shredder "We'll have to divert their attention."
Woman "Help! Somebody help me!"
Chief guard "Manny, Moe, Jack, check it out."
[The three guards run around a corner out of sight.]
Man "Hey, chief, give us a hand."
[The chief guard runs to where his men went. He rounds a corner and a trio of goons pull guns on him. The other guards are already tied up.]
Tall thug "Surprise, copper."
[Shredder and his goons run towards the manufacturing plant. Cut to the Triceratons. Zork pushes a large device towards a group of pedestrians standing on a curb. He presses a button and several small ray guns activate to form a cage around the humans.]
Zorax "These mammals aren't putting up any resistance."
[The three ninja turtles climb up to the street through a manhole.]
Leonardo "No, but we turtles are."
Zorax "Normally, I wouldn't fight fellow reptiles, but since you're in league with these humans…"
[The Triceratons surround the turtles and start firing lasers at them. The turtles run to a dumpster and leap behind it to take cover.]
Raphael "Whoever they are, I don't think they came in peace."
[Meanwhile, Bebop and Rocksteady are walking down a street.]
Rocksteady "Mm. I don't think we're gonna find that guy. We've been looking for hours."
Bebop "Yeah. It's way past time for my midnight snack break."
Donatello "I'll give you a break."
[They look up to see a costumed Donatello dangling from a rope.]
Bebop "What are you supposed to be? A trick-or-treat turtle?"
[Both start laughing and then pull their blasters.]
Donatello "Laugh this off, scuzz bombs."
[He holds out his arms and two lines shoot out of his gauntlet. The crane tips on the lines grab the blasters and pulls them out of Bebop and Rocksteady’s hands.]
Bebop "Why, you little creep. [They run at Donatello, but he’s vanished.] Hey, where'd he go?"
[Donatello jumps them from behind, kicking them down. They rise and are both lassoed. Donatello holds one end of the rope that is draped over a traffic light and he pulls them off the ground.]
Donatello "Wolf Jaxon. Where is he?"
Bebop "Who? That gangster who hides out in the big shanty on the wharf?"
Donatello "Thanks for the info."
[He pulls them up higher and their heads hit the traffic light.]
Both "Ouch!"
[Donatello ties the rope around a fire hydrant and leaves.]
Rocksteady "Good thing you don't tell him what he wanted to know. The boss might have gotten mad."
Bebop "Well, yeah, but if we hang around here, we won't know how the rest of the story turns out."
[Back with the Triceratons, Leonardo runs at Zorax and slices the blaster out of his hand. A pair of katar shoot out of Zorax’s wrist gauntlets and he and Leonardo continue battling. Michelangelo twirls his turtle line over and then throws it at a Triceraton, but he ducks and grabs the line and pulls.]
Michelangelo "Cowabun-- [He is yanked off his feet and the Triceraton catches him, spinning him overhead before throwing him.] Whoa!"
[Raphael runs up next to a bus and then Zork charging at him. He leaps and Zork punctures the bus with his horns. Zork pulls loose and turns to see Raphael running away.]
Zork "Come back and fight!"
[Zorax and Leonardo continue exchanging blows.]
Zorax "We Triceratons are the greatest warriors in the universe. We've conquered half the galaxy."
[He slices through Leonardo’s katana and then kicks him down.]
Leonardo "Whoa!"
[He lifts Leonardo overhead.]
Zorax "And you three will never stop us."
[He throws Leonardo. Back together again, the three turtles jump behind a parked car as the Triceratons fire on them.]
Michelangelo "We are seriously outgunned, dudes."
Leonardo "We need the Turtle Van."
Raphael "Are you kidding? Those horn-heads’ll make Swiss cheese out of it."
Leonardo "Have you got a better idea?"
[The Triceratons blast the car to pieces and the turtles run.]
Raphael "Don't go anywhere. We'll be right back."
[Cut to Wolf Jaxon’s hideout.]
Goon "We fixed Shredder up, boss."
Jaxon "Good. I'm sick of dealing with that weirdo."
[Donatello smashes the door into pieces.]
Donatello "Deal with me now, Wolf. [Two goons attack from either side of Donatello, but he punches both, knocking them down.] Out of my way, lowlife scum."
[Jaxon reaches into a desk drawer and grabs a weapon. He stands up to point it at Donatello, but the turtle grabs his hand and pulls the weapon out of it. Donatello tosses the weapon away and grabs the lapel of Jaxon’s jacket.]
Jaxon "Who are you? What do you want?"
[Donatello shoves Jaxon towards a back wall, then grabs his collar before bashing a hole in the wall. Donatello walks Jaxon out onto a pier towards the water.]
Donatello "Shredder. Where is he?"
Jaxon "He's at the government lab. He's working on some gizmo."
Donatello "Thanks for the information, slimeball."
[He drops Jaxon into the water.]
Jaxon "You creep. This was my best suit."
[Meanwhile, the Triceratons have set up a huge machine in the street.]
Zorax "Activate the Star Gate Generator. [A Triceraton does so.] In less than an hour, this entire planet will be ours."
[Tires screech as the Turtle Van turns a corner. It drives towards the Triceratons, the roof mounted lasers firing. Zorax returns fire, blasting a large hole in the pavement. The front end of the Turtle Van falls into it.]
Raphael "Ah, see. I warned you something like this would happen."
Zorax "I suggest you look skyward."
[All three turtles look up to see the Star Gate Generator firing a blue light into the sky.]
Michelangelo "Whoa. Heavy-duty special effects, dudes."
Zorax "It is a stargate. A warp in the fabric of space and time. In one hour, the Earth's orbit will carry it directly into the stargate and the entire planet will be instantly transported across the galaxy to the Triceraton homeworlds, where it will be stripped clean."
Raphael "Oh. Well, it can't get much worse than this."
Michelangelo "Don't be too sure, dude. We still have a whole nother act to go."
Zorax "In one hour, the planet Earth will be instantly transported to our homeworlds. It will be looted of all resources. Humans will be taken as slave labor. Then the planet will be reduced to a charred cinder."
Raphael "Man, that could put a serious crimp in Earth's future."
Leonardo "What we need is some incredibly clever plan to sabotage their equipment."
Michelangelo "Yeah, but that's Donatello's department."
Raphael "And in case you hadn't noticed, our resident brain has a few loose keys on his accordion."
Leonardo "We've got to find him. Come on."
Zorax "You are fellow reptiles. We don't want to fight you. Join us."
Leonardo "Uh, we'll take a rain check on that."
[Raphael puts the Turtle Van in reverse. The tires squeal as the vehicle drives out of the hole and keeps going backwards. At the government lab, Shredder is working to repair the Micro Blaster. His comlink beeps and he answers it.]
Krang "Shredder? What's taking so long?"
Shredder "Calm down. My Micro Blaster is nearly complete, Krang."
Krang "Well, step on it. How long does a fella have to wait to rule the world?"
[Suddenly, Donatello kicks open the door behind Shredder.]
Donatello "All right, Shredder. It's just you and me."
[Shredder laughs and lifts his safety visor to look at Donatello.]
Shredder "And what are you supposed to be?"
Donatello "I'm your worst nightmare."
[He stalks towards Shredder.]
Shredder "You've been watching too much TV, turtle boy."
[He laughs and fires a laser at Donatello. The blast hits the door because Donatello is no longer there.]
Shredder "Where'd he go?"
[Donatello lands behind Shredder and yanks the laser out of his hands.]
Donatello "Now, Shredder, for the final showdown."
[Cut to the Turtle Van.]
Leonardo "I've got a fix on him. Head north."
[Inside the government lab, Donatello throws Shredder against a machine, denting it.]
Donatello "Get on your feet, you sleazebag. Time for my Turtle Cuffs."
[Shredder kicks him away.]
Shredder "That ridiculous outfit hasn't made you any less gullible."
Donatello "You won't fool me twice, you vermin."
[He yanks a laser arm off of a machine and swings it at Shredder, who dodges. Donatello breaks a table and another machine as he continues chasing his foe. Shredder picks up a table and throws it at Donatello. The table breaks as it hits and knocks Donatello down. Shredder begins climbing a ladder.]
Donatello "Turn the tables on me, will you?"
[He launches a grappling hook to the ceiling and swings up to a catwalk to cut off Shredder’s escape. He grabs Shredder by his cape, shoves him over the railing and dangles him above a generator on the floor below.]
Donatello "Now I’ve got you right where I want you."
[The other turtles enter the lab and see their brother.]
Leonardo "Donatello, no!"
Donatello "Ha, ha, ha, ha! At last! The Dark Turtle is triumphant!"
Leonardo "That generator's on wheels."
[He and Raphael run towards the generator. Michelangelo swings and throws his turtle line up to the catwalk.]
Donatello "Farewell, accursed enemy."
[He drops Shredder. Leonardo and Raphael shove the generator back and Shredder lands on them. Leonardo sits up and dumps Shredder off of him.]
Leonardo "You always were a pain in the neck, Shred-Head."
[Michelangelo leaps and tackles Donatello.]
Michelangelo "I got you, dude. [They tussle and Donatello falls over the railing.] They'll catch you, dude!"
[Donatello lands on the generator and receives a shock. Leonardo and Raphael pull him down just as Bebop and Rocksteady arrive.]
Rocksteady "Ooh, ooh, boss, you gotta get out of here. That turtle's gone psycho."
Shredder "I know, I know."
[They run out of the lab. Michelangelo slides down to the ground floor. Donatello sits up and rubs his head.]
Donatello "Uh, what happened? What am I doing in this stupid superhero costume?"
Michelangelo "You had a major gonzo attack, dude."
Donatello "Well, gee, did I miss anything important?"
Raphael "Eh, take a gander out the window."
[Donatello goes to the window and looks out to see the Star Gate Generator warping space.]
Donatello "Uh, I think you'd better tell me about this, guys. [The turtles all gather together. Donatello is holding the Micro Blaster. He pulls off his costume cowl.] Now, this little gizmo of Shredder's should give us plenty of firepower… if I can get it working."
Raphael "Well, it's not as simple as that."
Michelangelo "Yeah, even if we beat those Tricera-creeps, there's probably a scazillion more where they came from."
Donatello "Oh. Then we've gotta convince them to leave Earth alone forever."
Leonardo "Their leader said something about not wanting to fight us because we're reptiles."
Raphael "Hey, maybe they don't attack planets where the reptiles are the dominant species."
Donatello "That's it! We've gotta get to the Natural History Museum. Come on."
[Cut to the Triceratons.]
Zorax "Three more minutes, and this miserable planet will be halfway across the galaxy, where it will become the personal property of the Triceraton Empire. [The ground starts shaking.] What the--?"
[A roaring sound precedes the arrival of a trio of dinosaurs. The Tyrannosaurus stomps on the cage generator, setting the humans free. The Stegosaurus bashes the Triceratons’ ground vehicles with its tail. Pan to the turtles and Leonardo, working the dinosaurs’ controls.]
Leonardo "It's working, Donatello. They think those robot dinosaurs are real."
[Roaring, the Tyrannosaurus chomps a Triceraton vehicle.]
Zorax "Those beasts must be stopped."
[He yanks a blaster rifle out of Zork’s hands.]
Zork "But, Captain, we can't harm fellow dinosaurs."
Zorax "They'll destroy us if we don't."
[He blasts a hole in the Brachiosaurus’ leg, revealing part of the robotic skeleton underneath. The Triceratons open fire, blasting holes in the other two dinosaurs.]
Leonardo "Hurry up, Donatello. Our dinosaurs are starting to look pretty ragged."
[Donatello completes his work on the Micro Blaster.]
Donatello "It's done."
[He replaces the cowl over his head and clips the Micro Blaster to it next to his temple. The dinosaurs roar as the Triceratons continue shooting them.]
Donatello "All right, you geeks. [The Triceratons turn to see him.] How dare you fire at my loyal minions."
Zorax "Who are you?"
Donatello "I am Donatello, ruler of this planet, and the mightiest reptile in the universe."
Zorax "You lie! No reptile is mightier than we Triceratons."
Donatello "Can a Triceraton do this?"
[He turns and fires the Micro Blaster at a nearby tank, causing it to explode into tiny pieces.]
Zorax "I don't believe it."
[As he speaks, Donatello starts blasting Triceraton equipment.]
Donatello "This is my planet, and you aren't taking it anywhere."
[The Micro Blaster destroys the Star Gate Generator.]
Zorax "The Star Gate Generator. No!"
[The space warp vanishes.]
Zork "Captain, we must retreat."
Zorax "Clearly these reptiles are superior to us in every way."
[The Triceratons race back to their Star Cruisers.]
Donatello "Go on, scram before I get really mad."
[The Star Cruisers lift off and disappear into space. The other turtles walk over to Donatello.]
Leonardo "Donatello, you did it."
Raphael "Yeah, I take back every rotten thing I ever said about you, pal."
Michelangelo "You are truly the most awesomest turtle of them all."
Donatello "Hey, all it took was a little brains. And a little help from Shredder."
[Cut to the turtles’ lair. Michelangelo turns on the TV. Raphael and Leonardo stand nearby.]
Michelangelo "Man, the Donster pretty much creamed Shredder single-handedly."
Raphael "I can believe it. He was so crazed he made Casey Jones look like a wallflower."
Leonardo "Well, things should quiet down now that he's back to normal."
[They hear a crash and then Donatello’s voice coming from another room.]
Donatello "Shredder. Where's that shredder?"
Leonardo "Oh, no. Not again."
[They enter the room to find Donatello throwing things.]
Michelangelo "You gotta come to your senses, dude."
[They tackle Donatello to the floor.]
Raphael "We are not gonna let you go after Shredder again."
Donatello "What are you talking about? I'm looking for my electric cheese shredder. [He gets up.] I'm just dying for a pizza."
Turtles "Oh, dude."
