Plot[]

Leonardo orders something at Run of the Mill Pizza after getting into a fight with Donatello, but keeps annoying Señor Hueso, causing the latter to facepalm in dismay. Suddenly, Capitán Piel enters Run of the Mill Pizza. Furious by seeing his no-good brother, Hueso takes the spoon and angrily tells him to leave, he starts to attack him. Surprised, Leo grabs french bread and eats, asking how's Piel doing, but Hueso thinks that he's here for no good as usual. The fight stops and Piel explains his reason of coming here. He needs Hueso to come with him to the Docks for a mission. Though Hueso is skeptical, Leo accepts Piel's request.

In the Docks, the three are walking down while talking about the mission. Though they can't rent a simurgh, Piel suggests they get a wild simurgh to reach to their destination. Leo and Hueso are inside of the simurgh. Hueso is even more suspicious about his brother, but Leo likes inside of it.

Three are at the Big Mama's auction house. Piel tells them that they must get 38, but when Big Mama says 38, they must get it by themselves. When Hueso presents golden Yōkai god (which was actually Leo), they are inside, thinking that Piel ditched them, Hueso now becomes angry and convinced, when 38 is box, which was screaming, guards attack Leo and Hueso.

They are about to escape on the simurgh, but then Leo bumps into Piel. Both of them angrily confront him, but Piel tells them that he was looking for them. Enraged, Hueso lashes out at Piel for ditching them. Piel explains that the reason he was trying to get back Hueso's pizza cutter, which was a gift from their father. Piel claims that he flew a pirate flag with Hueso's likeness on it, because he loves him. Hueso smiles.

Unfortunately, Big Mama corners them along with her guards. Hueso briefly reminds Piel how the two of them were once like Skin and Bones. Piel guesses Hueso's plan, and the two fuse and merge together into an incredibly handsome Spanish human-looking man named Don Suave. Leo glances at Suave, and is immediately intensely attracted to Suave's good looks, to which Suave tells Leo not to look directly him, and Leo averts his eyes. Suave proceeds to use weaponize his own beauty against Big Mama and her guards, giving them a wink (guiño), a glance (mirada), an expression of charisma (carisma), a sensual look (sensual), a fiery look (fuego), blows them kisses (besito), and finally opens his shirt to bare his manly chest (machismo). By the time Suave is finished, Big Mama has been knocked out and her guards destroyed, and Leo is worshipping at his feet.

Leo and Suave head home on the simurgh. Leo, still completely enamored by his Suave, has crawled into Suave's arms and continually cuddles, nuzzles and coos blissfully against him, though no longer actually looking directly at him. Suave remains completely stoic and does nothing to encourage Leo's affections.

Back at Run of the Mill Pizza, Hueso, once again unfused from Piel, gives Leo a free Hawaiian pizza as thanks for helping Hueso reconcile with his brother. Leo, who has then reconciled with Donnie, invites the other turtle to crawl into the simurgh's joey pouch with him. The episode ends with the simurgh eating the pizza.

Trivia[]

  • This is the first episode in the series in which Big Mama doesn't transform into her true form from her human disguise.
    • She does, however, appear in her true form when descending from her web to the auction stage, but only briefly.
  • Leo shows an interest in men multiple scenes in this episode.
    • Earlier in the episode, there is a discreet (and perhaps ambiguous) scene when Leo, Hueso and Piel were walking down a street in the Hidden City docks. During one animated shot, Leo was shown ogling a particularly brawny male Yōkai pirate walking past in the opposite direction. Appearing awestruck, Leo's eyes locked onto the pirate's form, moved as the pirate moved, and ended with Leo staring at the pirate's rear for a moment. Once the pirate had completely passed by, Leo returned his undivided attention to the unrelated conversation Hueso and Piel were having.
    • Later the episode, when Hueso and Piel had combined into Don Suave, an extremely attractive fused being, Leo gawked at Suave, the pupils of Leo's eyes very noticeably dilated, and Leo uttered, "Wow, you guys are handsome." The transformation into Suave was meant to erode Big Mama's resolve and help them escape, but it also affected Leo just as much, and Suave advised Leo not to stare directly at him. When Suave had finished defeating Big Mama and her soldiers, Leo was shown worshipping at Suave's feet.
    • In the next scene on the simurgh ride home, a completely stoic Don Suave was shown carrying a very visibly enamored Leo in his arms. Leo was clinging to and cuddling against Suave, repeatedly affectionately rubbing the side of his head against the side of Suave's head, and could be heard whining.
  • The last dance move Hueso uses when attracting the simurgh is called the Death Drop.
  • Item number 2 at Big Mama's auction is a painting of Rise of the TMNT executive producer Andy Suriano and his family playing cards.
  • Don Suave says "machismo" during his "fight" scene, a Spanish word with a modern-day negative connotation related to sexism. Fans remarked on this, concerned about framing sexism in an admirable or positive light. In May 2020, Rise of the TMNT staff writer Russ Carney responded to the concern in a Tweet, stating, "A very important tweet, I have seen it, and it registers. I grew up in an era where 'macho' and the concept of 'machismo' was prevalent, and, from my opinion, something to mock retrospectively. Obviously we love women and don't support violence or anti-feminism. Sorry."[1] Carney also stated in a Tweet, "The definition we were going for was 'exaggerated masculinity', (think bull decal on side of pickup truck) but obviously were ignorant to the other potential ways it could be interpreted. I hope the Spanish dub uses smarter language. Sorry everybody!"[2][3][4]

Errors[]

  • When Big Mama appears at the auction in her true form, her cephalothorax is colored the same purple of her jabot instead of dark purple.
  • During Big Mama's line, "Remember, this is all to raise money for my favorite charity: me and my upcoming..." her upper lip is colored red instead of black.
