The Turtles journey into cyberspace in order to retrieve Master Splinter's data bits.

Plot Summary[]


In the lair, Donatello is working at his lab screens while the rest of the Turtles sleep. He locates something on a map of cyberspace and excitedly runs to wake his brothers up. He explains that he traced the source of the transmission he had with Master Splinter. Raphael angrily asks why Splinter isn't talking, so Donnie clarifies that this is only one fragment of Splinter, and that the data containing Splinter's essence is scattered all across cyberspace. He tells the rest of the Turtles that their mission is now to go into cyberspace and collect Splinter's data bits.

Donnie begins putting the finishing touches on the Cyber Portal, and immediately powers it up. The rest of the Turtles are hesitant, but Donnie is determined to head straight into cyberspace to help Master Splinter. He uploads his body into cyberspace, and the others follow. Serling comments on how there's finally peace and quiet, but he can't enjoy it. In cyberspace, Michelangelo comments on how cool everything looks, but Raphael disagrees, describing the place as creepy. Suddenly, an energy surge rapidly approaches the Turtles. Donnie pushes them all out of the way, telling them to stay close. As they walk, Donnie explains how everything around them is what makes up the Internet. Leonardo and Raphael look around in dismay, realizing how large cyberspace really is, but Donnie reassures them he has a solution. He showcases The Code Runner and The Cyber Ripper. Now in their vehicles, the four Turtles decide to race. Donnie tells them to stop messing around and focus on finding Splinter's data bits. As they approach the data, a more dangerous energy surge blocks their path. Mikey skids to a stop, and in front of him, the surge reveals itself to be Cyber Shredder.

The rest of the Turtles catch up, staring in awe and confusion. Donnie says that they're there for Splinter, not to fight, but Cyber Shredder ignores this comment, threatening the Turtles. Cyber Shredder then begins to explain how he came back once more, saying that long ago, he used a mixture of Earth and Utrom technology to upload a backup version of himself to a data vault. This version of himself was locked away up until Viral attempted to break into the vault, which activated its defenses, killing Viral and bringing Cyber Shredder to life. He threatens to destroy the Turtles, so the brothers activate their Cyber Weapons, initiating the battle. The Turtles attempt to fight, but it's clear that Cyber Shredder is much too powerful in the digital realm, so they attempt to flee into a kind of cyberspace transport. Before they can go, Cyber Shredder grabs Mikey's legs, causing Mikey's body to begin to fade away. Donnie closes the doors of the transport on Cyber Shredder's arms, releasing Mikey and allowing his code to go back to normal as they move to another part of cyberspace.

When the doors of the transport open, it's revealed that Donnie brought them to some sort of accounting program, which is the safest place he could find in the spur of the moment. Raph asks why they're still in cyberspace, and Donnie retorts that Splinter's data bits are still here, so they can't leave yet. Mikey recalls how Cyber Shredder just almost dissolved his code altogether, so Leo says that they have to find some way to fight Cyber Shredder if they're going to stay in cyberspace. Donnie agrees, and activates the group's Cybernaut Armor. Once returning to where they were before and making sure there is no sign of Cyber Shredder, the Turtles hop on their Cyber Vehicles and rush to collect the three Splinter data bits. Donnie tells the other three to watch his back while he creates a conduit to collect the data bits. Suddenly, all of the Turtles' Cybernaut armor detects Cyber Shredder's power surges approaching in all different directions. As the surges race forward, they merge to form Cyber Shredder, blasting the Turtles, and the data bits, backwards. Donnie charges after the data bits, while the other three Turtles attack Cyber Shredder to hold him off. Raph realizes they have to think like Cybernauts, and ends up landing a hit on Cyber Shredder, but gets knocked back. Mikey uses his Cybernaut armor to turn invisible, attacking as well. Leo kicks Cyber Shredder over, but his victory is short-lived when Cyber Shredder rises into the air and throws energy blasts at the turtles. Donnie almost loses the data bits, but successfully absorbs them into his Cybernaut armor. Cyber Shredder knocks out Mikey, angering Raph, and he attempts to use his Cybernaut armor to teleport above Cyber Shredder and attack. He is unsuccessful, so Leo hops on his Code Runner and rescues him from Cyber Shredder's grasp. Donnie grabs Mikey, and the Turtles race into the Cyber Portal home, Cyber Shredder hot on their heels.

After passing through the portal, they're launched into Serling, who is unhappy about being used to break their fall. Donnie begins to upload Splinter's data bits into his computer, and says that they are going to find every last one, even if Cyber Shredder tries to stop them. It then cuts back to Cyber Shredder in cyberspace, now knowing that the Turtles can come in and out of cyberspace.
