Plot[]

The Cyber Shredder has created his own Cyber Portal and is ready to enter the real world. But he first decides to test it.

Elsewhere, Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael are busy on their cycles, racing in the sewers and the subway tunnels. After Mikey falls into a pool of raw sewage, he is attacked by what looks like a huge mutant rat with multiple legs. After it causes mayhem in the subway station, it is electrocuted by the third rail. They take it back to Donatello, who analyzes it and determines the rat isn't actually organic, but actually a mouse from cyberspace, partially organic, yet still digital, and that it didn't sneak in through their portal. Mikey then tells his brothers that the creature probably didn't come alone. He points to the television, and the news also reports that other cyber animals are rampaging through the city, signaling that the rat came with friends.

Don equips them with Dart Blasters that will turn the creature back into simple digital information. However, the Cyber Shredder is sending out so many of them that they are extremely busy with the animals, such as a cyber octopus and a giant, non-humanoid cyber turtle with three arms. Luckily, the Turtles are able to blend in with the cyber creatures so they could easily defeat them.

Cyber Shredder's using the animals to fine tune his portal, not willing to risk a fraction of his program. His portal is fully completed when a fully real duplicate of Khan materializes down to the last detail. They start looking for the last animal breach and find a non-cyber chipmunk and Mikey calls him George. Don confirms this when they find a non-cyber chipmunk, which has been converted from data to every spec of matter, meaning they can't use the Dart Blasters to stop the Cyber Shredder. Mikey suggests an ingenious plan to sabotage the Cyber Shredder's portal in cyberspace so that he will still be partially data. He and Don go into cyberspace while Leo and Raph go to Foot headquarters, where they fight an elite garrison of Foot Ninja. In cyberspace, Don has little time to sabotage, so he goes inside the portal's multi-phasic core, while Mikey fought off the digital safeguards (Cyber Foot Ninjas), just as the Cyber Shredder is uploaded to the real world. But as he goes to slay Leo and Raph, he mutates, losing control of himself. Leo and Raph fire many darts at him and he explodes. The Cyber Shredder reappears inside cyberspace, angry.

Trivia[]

Raphael states that Donnie has an IQ of 637
Mikey loving on the virtual chipmunk is a reference to the Looney Tunes cartoon The Abominable Snow Rabbit.
