[Opening sequence and theme song.]
[Open in the Turtle Lair. The Turtles are seated around the kitchen table staring at a puzzle that looks like a pizza.]
Donatello "Okay, which one of you guys ate a piece of the jigsaw puzzle?"
Raphael "Well, don't look at me. Cardboard pizza's not a real heavy favorite of mine."
Leonardo "These things are hard work. Whose idea was this anyway?"
Splinter "Uh, it was mine. Remember, my students, like the body, the mind also needs exercising."
Michelangelo "But, Sensei, this puzzle's a real toughy."
Splinter "The satisfaction one attains from completing a difficult task adds to one's self-esteem."
Leonardo "It says here a child can put this puzzle together."
[Raphael pounds the table with his fist, causing the partially completed puzzle to come apart.]
Raphael "Well, that's one kid I'd like to meet."
[In outer space, a spacecraft shaped like a car flies towards Earth. Two youngsters are griping.]
F-Stop "Are we there yet?"
Saycheez "How come I can't sit in the front seat?"
Millimeter "Children, now don't annoy your father. He's trying to steer. Dear, are you sure you know where you're going? I think we're lost."
Fripp "Oh, don't worry, sweetie pie. We're right on course. See? There's Earth now!"
F-Stop "Aw, who wants to stay in a dumb old sewer with a bunch of slimy green turtles?"
Saycheez "Move over! Mom, F-Stop is on my side!"
F-Stop "And Saycheez is a pest! Can we ditch her on the next asteroid, Dad? Can we, can we? Huh? Can we?"
Fripp "Trust me, this is gonna be oodles of fun. And I'll bet those Ninja Turtles are just gonna love you kids."
[Shift to the Technodrome, in a deep crevasse in the Arctic.]
Shredder "No-ho, Krang! Say you didn't invite that Polarisoid back to Earth."
Krang "But I did! And he thinks the invitation came from those four shellbacks."
Shredder "But what if that alien shutterbug brings his video camera?"
Krang "You mean the video camera that doesn't just take pictures, but traps the subjects on the video tape?"
Shredder "Yes, that video camera."
Krang "I'm counting on it. And I'm going to use him and his family to help me overthrow the city."
Shredder "You've had your share of dumb schemes, but this one may take first prize."
Krang "Well, I wouldn't have to call on outsiders if you were more efficient, Shredder!"
Rocksteady "Watch the three-headed birdie."
Bebop "Smile. You're on Alien Camera."
Krang "And as a special surprise, look at this video cassette the Polarisoid left behind."
Shredder "Keep that away from me! I was trapped inside it with the Turtles. It was a nightmare."
Krang "Then allow me to play it.
I have reversed the Polarisoid's tape process.
It no longer traps the images as it did with this specimen. That was just a sample of the Polarisoid's travel log. This tape is filled with hideous creatures and alien dimensions."
[He places the cassette in a player.]
I have reversed the Polarisoid's tape process.
[Onscreen is a three-headed alien creature.]
It no longer traps the images as it did with this specimen. That was just a sample of the Polarisoid's travel log. This tape is filled with hideous creatures and alien dimensions."
Shredder "I hate looking at vacation pictures."
Krang "But you'll love these. When this tape is placed inside the Polarisoid's camera, the recorded images will come to life. Those creatures will keep those Turtles busy while I use my motherboard to take over every computer in the city. We will control everything. But I must have the Polarisoid camera in order for this process to work."
Shredder "Okay, okay, I'm convinced."
[Krang hands over an object the size and shape of a belt.]
Krang "Put on these magnetic gravity anchors. One of the alien worlds on this tape has no gravity."
[Shredder leads the way into the Transport Module.]
Shredder "Rocksteady, Bebop, let's find those Polarisoid tourists."
[The Polarisoid ship flies over New York City.]
Millimeter "Why, look, kids, there's the Earth city where the Turtles live."
Saycheez "Big deal!"
F-Stop "I'm hungry. What do they eat here anyway?"
Fripp "Something called pizza."
F-Stop "Pizza? Ew, sounds icky!"
