Plot[]
A movie about Jupiter Jim and his partner, Red Fox was being played. At the end of the movie, the Turtles cheered in enjoyment as they were coming out of the movie theater. As they talk about how awesome the movie is, Leo looks up to see a sign up in the sky. That sign belongs to Jupiter Jim who has turn on the spotlight before shutting it off.
Jupiter Jim was glad to see the turtles again and explained that his signal would bring back Red Fox. She had abandoned him ever since an alien arrived on earth. He asked the turtles if they needed to be his sidekick. Leo was overjoyed but Raph told his brothers the last time they met Jupiter Jim, he is a crazy actor who thinks he’s Jupiter Jim. Leo and his two brothers plead with Raph and the snapper finally gives in to join Jupiter Jim.
At his apartment, Jupiter Jim explained that he is tracking an alien named ScorPion spotted at the zoo and bomb factory. He tells them that everyone gets fifty points and first to get more points wins.
The first trial is if ScorPion has weapons they must use tech to defeat him. Leo began to use the Crushasaurus robot until Donnie tricks him by using his phone. Leo could not get his phone because he is controlling the robot.
The second trial is when a sidekick is in danger, Jupiter Jim must save them and the most screams will help find him. Raph laughed at his brothers hanged upside down near a vat of fake acid [soda]. He tossed away a coconut drink which activates the lever and drops the three turtles into the vat of soda which doesn’t burn them.
The third trial is defeating the robots since ScorPion may have minions along with them. They tried to attack but they ended up fighting each other. Later, Jupiter Jim decided that he should take Raph because he is used to red. Leo was shocked and said that Raph wasn’t in the competition. Raph explained to his brothers that it’s a red thing and began to leave.
Later at the alley, Leo, Mikey and Donnie are disaught that Raph is now Jupiter Jim’s side now. Donnie began to guess that Jim was us to keep fighting to be his sidekick and Leo knew what he had to do. They head to a theater and tell his old friend, Red Fox about Jupiter Jim. The red panda explained that he never said thank you and moved on into acting, much to their dismay.
Meanwhile, Raph and Jupiter Jim search around the zoo for ScorPion and ask animals where he is. Finally, they felt like someone was watching us and Jim told Raph to hide in the storage facility. Raph thinks it’s a good idea but they are caught and tied upside near a vat of acid. The figure stepped in the shadows and removed his trench coat to reveal ScorPion. Raph asked him if he’s a real alien but the insect explained that he got mutated in a scorpion pit. Now he is on the plan to terminate his old co-workers as he lowered Raph and Jim toward the acid.
Suddenly, Leo, Mikey and Donnie burst through the wall and saw ScorPion the bombs and acid and thought they’re real. Raph tries to explain that ScorPion is a real mutant but Jupiter Jim thinks he’s a real alien. The insect started to fling his tail at the turtles which they dodged and when Mikey’s helmet fell into the acid and melted, Mikey gets the point that ScorPion is a real mutant and the acid is real. They started to grab the bombs and deactivate them but ScorPion used his tail to cut the ropes that were holding Raph and Jim. Just as they were about to fall into the acid, a large bushy tail saved them. Red Fox had returned. With them saved, the turtles tossed the bombs into the acid and ScorPion retreated.
Jupiter Jim thanked Red Fox for saving his life. The red panda was thrilled that he got to thank her. The man waved the turtles goodbye as they flew out into the sky.
