VOICE-OVER INTRO | |
---|---|
Donatello | My name is Donatello, and as a turtle of science, I like to investigate things. But I never thought my study of the strange crystals we found in our lair would awaken creatures from the underground, lead us on a search deep below the Earth, or take us to an abandoned Foot Genetic Lab where terrible things were done in the name of the Shredder. |
Foot Scientist | There are some things |
Foot Scientist/ Michelangelo |
man was never meant to tamper with. |
Michelangelo | That’s the one line in a monster movie you don’t want to hear! |
Donatello | As a turtle of science, you wouldn't think i'm the type to believe in monsters but you be wrong, dead wrong. |
{Opening sequence; title song}
The episode continues underground as the monsters gets closer to the turtles as they walk backwards into the lab. | |
Michelangelo | Ah, I think I speak for all of us when I say "Zonks!". |
The turtles threw their backpack aside while the blue monster walks closer and sprays acid at the turtles disseminating the floor. | |
Raphael | That's it As the turtles grab their weapons. |
Michelangelo | OK, you guys take the three on the left. |
Raphael | There ARE only three. |
Michelangelo | there's for each for you and I'll be odd turtle out. |
Raphael | you're telling me. |
the red monster throws an unit at the turtles but miss. Leonardo, Raphael and Donatello engage the monsters while Michelangelo tip-toes in the lab. Donatello engages the red monster, Raphael engages the stone monster and Leonardo fights the blue monster, Raphael helps Donatello while the stone monster climbs and digs itself inside into ceiling for a sneak attack. | |
Raphael & Donatello | WOW!. |
the stone monster digs out for the sneak attack. | |
Raphael | Micky! |
Raphael intercepts the stone monster's attack and succeeds | |
Raphael | Watch your back you oddball! |
Michelangelo | You just called odd didn't you? |
the stone monster jumps on Raphael. | |
Michelangelo | (To himself)I'm not odd, I'm eccentric. (To Donatello) Raph thinks I'm odd. |
Donatello | You're just being sensitive. |
Michelangelo | sensitive? If there's one thing I hate, its when people call me sensitive! |
The turtles continue to fight the monsters. | |
Michelangelo | Hey, I know these monsters are viscous abominations but guys we're not holding our own out there, now lets dig deep. |
As Leonardo continues to fight the blue monster, it sprays acid onto the glass silos cursing them to crack. | |
Blue monster | You will take no more of us!! |
Leonardo | We're not here to take anybody. |
as the silos fall and are about to land on to the Blue monster. | |
Leonardo | Look out (as he jumps in saves the monster) |
Leonardo | Why have you attacked us? |
The blue monster seems puzzled then the red monster attacks Leonardo | |
Leonardo | You know something Micky? They're thinking we're somebody else. |
Michelangelo | Ah man that's just great, we're getting our shells sh-elacted at someone elses fight? |
Donatello | Then I ??? get the shell outta here. |
Raphael | Run away, that ain't my style. |
Leonardo | Call it a tactical retreat lets move. |
Donatello | We're leaving. (as he pushes a button with his Bo-staff which opens a sealed door) |
As the turtles head down the corridor the monsters begin to follow. | |
Raphael | Tactical retreat, I can live with that. |
The turtles enter another room, Donatello tries to open the door at the end but won't open. | |
Donatello | (he grunts) Its sealed tight. |
As the monsters get closer, the turtles close the vault door but the monsters start damaging it. | |
Michelangelo | Somebody gonna answer that? |
The red monster bursts the door as the stone monster emerges from the floor and about to attack the turtles. | |
Blue monster | NO! |
Raphael | Say the word bro. |
Leonardo | Easy Guys, it's ok. |
Blue monster | (it sniffs at the turtles) Who are you? |
Leonardo | Not who you think we are. |
Blue monster | Then why do you carry THOSE?(It points at Doni's bad containing the crystals. |
Leonardo | Whoa! wait a minutes! We found these crystals in a cavern where staying that's all. |
Raphael | Yeah and just what business it of yours anyway? |
Blue monster | (grunts) Those crystals are the embodiment of evil, why have you come here? |
Michelangelo | Cause one of you ogres went sniffing around our place looking for trouble so we're here to(Don covers Micky's mouth) |
Donatello | To just look for some answers, that's all. |
Leonardo | I'm Leonardo and these are my brothers: Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo. |
Blue monster | We were drawn to your habitat, When your crystals were activated. |
Donatello | Gee! Wonder who coulda done that. |
Blue monster | Their energy is a sign of danger to us so we considered you dangerous, thou we usually sense them coming from deeper below . |
Donatello | BELOW? you mean there's more of these crystals down there? We just like to find out where they came from that's all and maybe |
Blue monster | (interrupting Donatello) NO! it is a forbidden place, something unspeakable dwells there amidst the crystals, There are some things man was never meant to tamper with. |
Donatello covers Michelangelo's mouth from saying something. | |
Blue monster | He IS an odd one. |
The turtles and the monsters walk back to the genetics lab. | |
Michelangelo | I don't trust these guys. |
Raphael | Why? |
Michelangelo | Try the fact that they're monsters. |
Donatello | Yeah well, to some people so are WE. |
Michelangelo rubs his head | |
Leonardo | I can’t believe that shredder had you genetically altered as diggers just to search down here for some "enemy". |
Blue monster | Yes, and he did so without remorse, we forced against our will to do his bidding. |
Leonardo | He snatched you at random from where? |
Blue monster | the streets, our offices, our homes anywhere shadow can conceal a foot soldier. We don't know why we were chosen. |
Leonardo | What's your name? |
Blue monster | I am Quarry of tunnel squad 3 the others are Stonebiter and Razorfist. |
Leonardo | No not what the foot called you, your real name. |
Quarry | s. . .si, my memory is (grunts) the experiments performed on us has stripped us of who we are. |
Leonardo | Yes we saw the video log entries. |
Raphael | Well don't worry about shredder he got his doom. |
Michelangelo | Yeah, he made the mistake of messing with the ninja turtles, there's a lesson to be learned that (laughs) if you know what I mean. |
The alarm goes off and they hear monster roars | |
Quarry | Oh no, the others they triped an alarm at the east delta tunnel, hurry, we must activate the energy shield. |
Quarry tries to activate the shield but the crystal loses its glow | |
Quarry | (It tries and again but to no avail) No No |
Michelangelo | Don't do a "No No", I hate "No No"s. |
Quarry | It's no good, the shield will NOT activate we have power no force field and they're heading this way. |
Raphael | Ah yeah, we kinda mentioned force field. |
Michelangelo | And Raph kinda broke. |
They hear monster roars again | |
Leonardo | What is out there? |
Quarry | The others |
Leonardo | Other What? |
Quarry | Test subjects like us, they endlessly prowl the tunnels. |
Leonardo | Why do have to keep them out? |
Quarry | (Quarry breaks off a monitor and crabs the cables inside) Because they attack us they're violent, uncontrollable their minds have deteriorated. |
Leonardo | From the genetic mutation? |
Quarry | Yes |
Leonardo | Then what about you three? |
Quarry | Madness looms in our future as well. |
They their roars again and the Turtles prepare to fight. | |
Quarry | Weapons will do no good, without the force field we won't stand a chance. |
Then the screen turns black for a break |
The monsters get closer to the lab. | |
Quarry | They'll be on us in minutes. |
Michelangelo | You know you're kinda freaking me out here, are you always such a naysayer? |
Donatello picks up the crystal but then it crumbles. | |
Donatello | Huh"? is that the crystals are? power sauces? |
Quarry | Yes but that was our only one, when we found it in the catacombs we paid dearly for it. |
Leonardo | Well, what about one of ours? |
Quarry | They're too small, would not last. |
Donatello | It only has to last until they give up and move on. (He places the crystal but it doesn't glow up, not activating the force field) Come on |
Stonebiter, Razorfist and Raphael closes the heavy door | |
Quarry | There is no spark. |
Donatello | (He taps the crystal with another to activate but to no a veal) For some reason they won’t just power up maybe the connections to these connect nods were charged, |
Quarry breaks offs another screen and looks in at the circuitry. | |
Michelangelo | Or maybe you got the thing upside down. |
Donatello | It is NOT upside down Micky. |
The other underground monsters approach the door and start trying to get in, one of the monsters' claws gets makes a scratch. | |
Donatello | OK let's try it again. |
The other underground monsters knock the doors down started walking into lab. (First a Cyclops Monster then an Insectoid Monster, Spider Monster and King Nail.) Micky looks at Don then he turns the crystal vertically places it the generator and actives. | |
Donatello | It's working. (As the computer turns on and activates the force field) |
The force field shields the turtles and the monsters inside and it expands wider pushing the other monsters back into the tunnels. The monsters to break through but to no avail. | |
Michelangelo | Don't think I didn't see that Donny, It WAS upside-down. |
Quarry | Its overloading. |
Quarry | They're leaving. |
The monsters give up and go back into the tunnels. | |
Quarry | But tomorrow they'll be back, they always come back. |
Leonardo | Then you beta have a bigger crystal. |
Quarry | We will not survive another journey to the forbidden-zone. |
Michelangelo | What makes the place so forbidden? |
Quarry | The ancient catacombs stretch for miles, we were forced to explore it, many of us never returned. |
Michelangelo | Ah, maybe they got lost? |
Quarry | They were taken by a ghostly entity, there is never any sign of a struggle, they're just gone. |
Leonardo | Look I understand why you don't want to go down there but are ain't a lot of options, you need another crystal and fast. |
Raphael | And since we uh, we're the one who kinda fried your security system we'll go with ya, Right guys? |
Leo and Don agreed. | |
Michelangelo | You know the corner hardware store has a sale on generators that would really get this force-field humming, so I'll just go up top and clop the coupon and then, oh . . . |
As Raphael grabs Micky's arm taking him with the others. | |
The turtles and the monsters exit the lab and head deeper into the caves. | |
Quarry | (Talking to Razorfist and Stonebitter) Be brave. |
Leonardo | OK, lets keep our wits about us.(talking to Raph) |
Raphael | Don't Worry Micky, You can share my wits. |
Michelangelo | Oh so now I'm witless? Must by why the only one bothered by the fact were're heading into a place even monsters are afraid of. |
As the turtles roll down a rocky slide. | |
Michelangelo | Shortcut? In what mutated imagination could that be considered a |
Quarry | Oh sorry, we forgot you can't scale rock. |
Raphael | Let's try to avoid that mistake in the future OK? |
Michelangelo | HO! Who cut the cheese? |
Donatello | You're smelling a sulfur pool Micky. |
