Plot
The episode starts with Fishface bringing some food to Karai. She makes fun of him because he's not in charge and follows Tiger Claw's orders. When he leaves, Karai finally breaks a prison bar and tries to escape. However, Tiger Claw grabs her and they fight. Karai gets knocked out and when Tiger Claw is about to slay her, Shredder enters and orders him to stop. Karai wakes up chained and Shredder tells her that everything he has done was for the clan's honor and calls her daughter. Karai yells that she's not his daughter.
In the lair, the guys try to figure out a plan for saving Karai. However, they don't all agree. Splinter tells Leo that a plan that leads to confrontation with the Shredder is doomed to failure. Leo says that it is worth it to save Karai. Donnie is left in the Shellraiser to monitor the situation and turns of the power for Shredder's tower. Mikey distracts Rahzar and Fishface with his shadow skills and Leo and Raph sneak in from the sewers and free Karai. Tiger Claw appears and he attacks them. While Mikey knocks out Fishface and Rahzar who scratches his arm, Donnie uses a dog whistle to drive Tiger Claw crazy. Leo, Raph and Karai escape and find Mikey. Then, tons of Foot-Bots appear along with Tiger Claw. Donnie uses the dog whistle to distract Tiger Claw and drives over a few Bots and they escape after a chase.
The Turtles and Karai return to the lair and Raph wraps up Mikey's arm. Splinter asks what happened, only to see his daughter again. She hugs him and Leo says that his plan worked. Tiger Claw returns to Shredder and tells him a few Foot-Bots are still searching for them. Shredder says that he counted on Karai's escape and tells Tiger Claw to bring him Baxter Stockman. In the lair, the Turtles are training as Splinter and Karai observe. Mikey easily avoids all of Leo's attacks and throws a water balloon at his face. To impress Karai, he jumps at Mikey and they roll over Donnie and Raph joins them. The Turtles leave and Karai asks Splinter what happened with him, Shredder and her mother.
Splinter tells Karai of the history between both the Hamato and the Foot and that once Oroku Saki discovered his true origins with the Foot, and discovered that Hamato Yoshi and Tang Shen were together, he sought to revive his true clan and kill Hamato Yoshi, killing Tang Shen by accident and then blaming his rival, burning the house to the ground while taking his only daughter with him.
Angered, Karai suggests that they take the fight to the Shredder but Splinter merely states that being reunited is enough for him. That night, Leo catches Karai trying to sneak out to go after the Shredder by herself and says he wants to go with her. Karai knocks Leo out and continues on her own. When Leo wakes up, he tells everyone what happened and Splinter blames himself for telling her too much too soon.
Karai attempts to murder Shredder in his throne room only to discover Chrome Dome waiting instead. Shredder admits that Karai returned sooner than he expected and shortly defeats her in battle before ordering Tiger Claw to bring her to Stockman's lab, the Turtles and Splinter, quietly following behind them.
Stockman finishes mixing some DNA when the Shredder arrives with the foot and Karai, explaining that she would be used as bait in order to capture the Turtles and mutate them into mindless snakes to use against Splinter, breaking his spirit and then his body. Baxter doesn't let Shredder know that he accidentally spilled in an extra chemical during the creation of the mutagen, and states that everything is ready. Splinter and the Turtles arrive and begin battle. Mikey, Raph and Donnie quickly get trapped in spring loaded cages, while Leo uses his sword to break free of his. Leo manages to reach Karai, only for Shredder to swipe at him, missing him and cutting the chain, watching helplessly as Karai falls into the mutagen, transforming her into a mindless mutant snake and unleashes her rage on all around her. Shredder blames Splinter for what happens but gets blocked off by debris as the building catches on fire. Tiger Claw assures him that they will get revenge and the Foot escape.
Karai wraps around the traumatized Splinter intent on killing him but then she stops, calling him father before leaving. Splinter and the Turtles escape the building and watch it burn before Splinter tells them it's time to return home. Elsewhere, Karai changes back into human form with green eyes and fangs.

Trivia
- When Michelangelo is scratched by Rahzar in slow motion, he expresses his pain by saying "TO... KKA..." as a reference to Rahzar's partner in previous incarnations.
- Karai has serpent heads instead of hands, much like the character Scale Tail, a snake-like alien bounty hunter from Dimension X who has an action figure in the Playmates 1987 toyline.
- Michelangelo hums the theme song from the 1987 cartoon on two different occasions in this episode: while distracting Rahzar and Fishface, and after hitting Leonardo with a water balloon.
- Baxter has spikes coming out from his limbs and torso in this episode. This may be an animation error, or a sign that he is still mutating.
- The mouthplate of Shredder's helmet can be detached separately from the rest of the helmet, as Shredder demonstrates at the beginning and end of the episode.
