ah, this waiting is getting on my nerves.
Don't worry. It'll be over soon.
And he'll be here any minute.
And then we do what we do best!
Yeah.
Pizza! Ta-da!
Mmm. Good stuff, Michelangelo.
Uh, master splinter.
I know you don't dig pizza.
So I got you a Sushi tray.
It is thoughtful of you, Michelangelo,
but I'm afraid I'm not hungry.
He didn't want it.
I don't blame him. Raw fish--yecchh!
Splinter's been acting mondo depressed lately.
What do you suppose is bringing him down?
He's probably worried about shredder's next move.
I don't think that's it.
I think master splinter misses being human.
Oh, I think you got it, bro.
Like, wouldn't it be rad if we could grant him his wish?
Yeah, but a chemical that can change a rat into a human
ain't easy to come by,
even in this city.
Hold it, guys.
I think I've got just the thing.
Follow me.
Guess what this is.
Well, it's either a very old pizza
or it's what's left of the wicked witch of the west.
Wrong. This is all that's left of the mutogen
that changed us from ordinary turtles
into the party animals we are now
and changed splinter into a rat.
Aha. So maybe we can use it to change him back.
It's worth a try,
if I can mix up the right chemicals to reactivate it.
Primo concept, bud.
Let's tell master splinter.
So that's the plan, sensei.
Are you agreeable to it?
To be human once more,
to walk the streets,
to feel the sunlight--
how often have I dreamed of this.
Yeah. I know the feeling.
This is a big decision, my pupils.
As a rat, I have abilities
that have aided us in the past--
my night vision and my sense of smell.
Yes, but, as a human,
you could go topside anytime
to see what shredder's up to.
I say go for it!
I will.
Yeah! Ha ha ha!
Hey! Careful with that stuff, donatello.
We get any on us,
and it's back to the glass bowl in the pet shop.
Not to worry. Here goes, master. Good luck.
I am human once again.
It's the least we could do for you, master.
Yeah. Why don't you take your new body out for a road test, huh?
Yes. I believe I will.
Enjoy your walk, master splin--
I mean, master yoshi.
He'll be back.
Are you sure?
I--I--I mean he's human now.
Yeah. Raphael's right.
What if he wants to stay with his own kind?
Maximum bummer, man.
It's his choice.
Ok, April. That's a wrap.
Oh, really, Irma. Public service announcements
for library week?
Have you ever heard of such a boring assignment?!
Well, gee, April.
Maybe those turtle friends of yours
will show up and lend a little excitement.
I'm not that bored.
Rock steady and bebop!
I can't believe it! And the turtles won't either.
I'd better warn them.
Hey, fellas, cheer up.
Master yoshi's gonna come back.
Yeah? I wouldn't bet my shell on it.
[COMMUNICATOR BEEPS]
What is it, April?
I just saw rock steady and bebop
in the public library.
Those strange-oids.
What do you suppose they're doing there?
Well, it's a cinch they're not out to improve their minds.
And where those two mutated morons are,
you're sure to find shredder.
Thanks, April. We'll take it from here.
Good luck. I've gotta get back to channel 6.
All right. Let's find tin-skin and take him out.
Hyah!
So, like, uh,
what you reading, boss?
If I told you cretins,
your feeble brains would fail to comprehend it,
so why bother?
Oh, he's right.
None of these books got no pictures.
This is it! The key to other realms.
What's a key doing in your book?
Ah...Ah-choo!
No, you fool. It's an ancient spell
that will open a portal to whatever dimension I desire.
No longer must I beg that idiot krang's favors.
I now can call forth my warriors
from dimension x on my own.
It's been so long since I've been able to walk among people.
Hey, watch where you're going, Mac!
Perhaps I've walked long enough.
Taxi!
You carrying any money in those pajamas, pal?
Ah. In my excitement, I forgot to bring any.
Then take a hike, deadbeat.
Perhaps a stroll in the park will be more peaceful.
I have what I came for. Let us go.
[WHISPERING] April said she saw them go down this section.
Shh! Try to keep it down to a roar, will ya, donatello?
The turtles. Hide quickly.
Mucho mysterioso, huh, guys?
Shredder's been here. I know it.
Wrong, you wretched reptile. I'm still here.
Aah! No!
What now, boss?
Why, finish them, of course.
Heh heh heh. I was hoping you'd say that.
Yeah. Now comes the fun part.
Ha ha. Yeah, ha ha.
Heh heh heh. [SNORTS]
This is gonna be like shooting turtles in a barrel.
Uh-oh!
Ow! Yeow!
Ow!
Way to go, Leonardo.
You really got 'em steamed!
Uh-oh. They got loose.
That changes everything.
Let's blow this joint.
Whoa! Aah! Oh!
For a rhino and a wart hog they sure are chicken.
Too bad they got away.
We still have no idea of what shredder's up to.
Au contraire, kemo sabe.
According to this, somewhere beneath the city,
there's an old abandoned subway terminal
that was used as a temple by some cultists back in the 1920s.
So what's shredder going to do, huh?
Catch the next train to dimension x?
As a matter of fact, yes.
The temple's located at a nexus--
a point where different dimensions come together.
If shredder recites the proper spell at midnight,
he can open a portal to any dimension he wishes.
We got to stop him before he finds that temple.
But how? There's gotta be Miles of old subway tunnels
under this city.
And, besides, shredder's got a map, and we don't.
Ahh. This is more like it.
Bad move, pops, coming into the park all by yourself.
Yeah, but don't worry.
You won't live long enough to regret it.
The odds are overwhelming,
but I shall acquit myself nobly.
Huh? Wh-what's happening to him?
I--I feel strange.
Ah! The effects of the spray are wearing off!
I must get back underground.
The turtles did what?
Aw, give us a break, boss.
Yeah, anybody can make a mistake.
Yeah. Especially us.
Incompetents.
If I didn't need both of you in the next few hours,
I'd sell you to a freak show!
According to the old book,
the temple is here.
Now I must translate the ancient spell
the cultists used to open the portal.
But first...
What is it this time, shredder?
I have found the key to other realms.
Oh, really?
I'll open a portal to dimension x tonight.
Oh, I'd advise you to be careful.
Unless the spell is spoken precisely right,
it could open a gate to yet another dimension.
And there are dimensions much worse than this one.
If I can just reach that manhole without being seen.
I can delay no longer.
Look at that!
Oh, no!
Hey! Aah!
Stop him!
Hey! Get him!
So, like, where do we start looking?
I wish master yoshi were here so we could ask him.
Yeah, I wonder if he's all right.
It's a jungle up there.
He's a ninja master, Raphael.
He can take care of himself.
Which means if he doesn't come back,
it's because he doesn't want to.
Hey, relax, turtles.
Master yoshi would not desert us.
Listen, we can't worry about it now.
We've got to stop shredder.
Exactamundo. We need a plan.
Anyone know where we can glom onto one?
Come on, April. Tell me.
Have you ever met the turtles in real life?
Irma, give me a break.
I've done a couple of stories on them, that's all.
I don't even-- [COMMUNICATOR BEEPS]
Uh, can I get back to you?
What is it? It's difficult to talk at the office.
Sorry, April, but it's really important.
Didn't you do a documentary on abandoned subway tunnels a few weeks ago?
Yes, I did. Why?
We need a videotape of it, toute suite.
Uh, just checking my makeup.
Hmm, I could use a bit more eye shadow.
Ok. Can do.
Great! Meet us at the Cornelius building.
I'm on my way.
According to this,
the spell has to be cast at midnight.
We don't have that much time.
Don't worry. We'll find it.
Yeah. We're the good guys, remember?
Here. Now you want to tell me what this is all about?
It's kinda complicated. Michelangelo, you explain it
while Raphael and I check out this tape.
Uh, well, it's kind of like...
Well, you see...
Well, if we don't find a certain subway tunnel,
the world's gonna end at midnight.
No biggie.
We're getting close to the temple.
Glad to hear it, boss.
These tunnels give me the creeps.
Yeah, I don't know how the turtles
can live in such substandard housing.
The turtles! I had forgotten that they live in the sewers.
You got me out of the shower.
This had better be good.
I need you to send me the neuro-scrambler I invented.
Why should I?
Because I can set the wavelength to affect only mutants
like the turtles.
Uh, and like us?
It will produce a brain-warping frequency
that will cause them to see each other as enemies.
While the turtles are fighting each other,
I will open the portal to dimension x.
Well, it's against my better judgment, but all right.
Oh, thank you, krang.
You will not regret this.
I had better not.
Crotchety old fool. I'll show him.
When the turtles get here,
they'll have an unpleasant surprise waiting for them.
Why must humans hate everything
that's different from themselves?
I must return to the sewers.
There it is.
He's headed for the subway.
Hey, whatever that thing is, it looks dangerous.
[TRAIN WHISTLE]
Aw. Hey, dudes.
I feel kind of weirded out.
Yeah. Me, too.
My brain hurts.
Aah!
Hey. Watch where you're going, nerd.
Who you calling a nerd, wimp?
Cut it out. We got no time for this.
Butt out, geek.
You're getting too big for your shell.
Oh, yeah?
Maybe you'd like to tangle with this, turtle?
With pleasure.
Why are you doing this? What's happening?
I'll tell you what's happening.
We're talking major rumble, here and now.
[GASPS]
[TRAIN WHISTLE]
He gave us the slip.
Whatever it was.
Yeah, come on. Let's go.
So. Once again yoshi is gone,
and only splinter remains.
So be it.
Hey!
I thought I heard something down here.
This time, he won't get away.
Oh!
Come on. Take your best shot.
Ha! Where'd you learn that move,
off a cereal box?
Have you all gone crazy? Stop it!
What would splinter think if he saw you doing this?
[ELECTRONIC HUMMING]
April's right.
We mustn't--unh!-- Fight each other.
That weird sound.
That must be what's causing it.
[GASPS] I was right. Get it, guys.
Whoa. Mondo nutsiness.
Thanks, April.
Gee. It's like master splinter saved us again,
even though he's no longer part of us.
No matter what our sensei's decided to do with his new life
and no matter what shredder throws at us,
we won't dishonor splinter's memory by failing.
Ok? Let's go.
We've been looking for hours, boss.
Yeah. I don't think we're gonna find this temple.
You were saying?
You two, up there.
I anticipate no interference.
But just in case,
you know how to use those stun lasers.
Uh, we sure do, boss.
It is nearly midnight. Time to begin the spell.
Good.
I've lost them.
[SNIFFS]
What's that? It smells like incense.
[SNIFFS]
Looks like this is it, turtles.
All right. Let's take them.
All right, shredder.
Huh? The turtles.
Your number's up, metal mouth.
On the contrary.
Now.
Uhh! Uhh! Ow!
Congratulations. You're just in time
to witness my hour of triumph.
Too bad it's the last thing you'll ever see.
Ah, ha ha ha ha ha!
Keep your eyes on them.
I must recite the spell exactly right
to open the proper portal.
Gotcha, boss.
"The hour has come.
"By ancient law and powers dark,
"let space and time begin to part.
"Portal now open wide.
"Reveal at last what is inside.
"Key within to my success
bridge the gap to dimension--"
stop! What?
No! The spell has been miscast.
Master splinter, look out.
Hey!
You cretins!
Must I do everything myself?
Aah!
Yeow!
Aah!
What's going on?
He has opened a portal to the wrong dimension.
We've got to stop that thing.
Good thinking.
Any idea how?
The portal will only remain open for a few moments.
Once it closes,
that creature will remain in our world.
We've got to drive it back through the portal.
Turtle power!
Uh-oh. We got double trouble.
Yipe! You can say that again.
Hey. Let go.
Time to retreat, guys.
Aah!
Hey, boss.
Thanks, boss.
I only did it
so I can think of a suitable punishment for you later.
Now run!
Aw! It's through the portal.
You got a mind like a steel trap, you know that?
Uhh! There's only one thing to do.
We have to destroy the entire place.
Easier said than done, fearless leader.
Quick. Lure it towards the column.
Uh-oh.
Time to boogie.
Aah!
Thanks for your help, April.
Oh, don't mention it.
I just love spending a relaxing evening
fighting monsters from another dimension.
Gee, April, where've you been?
Believe me, you don't want to know.
I can't wait to hear.
You're onto a big story involving those turtles, right?
Golly, Irma, there's no fooling you.
Oh, darn it.
You reporters have all the fun.
Oh, sure. It's a million laughs.
And so I merely followed the trail of the incense
to the temple. The rest you know.
Gee, sensei, we're really sorry
your changing back into a human didn't take.
Hmm. I do not regret it.
After seeing how humans treat one another,
I prefer being an animal.
Besides, if I had not turned back into my present form,
I would not have been able to reach you in time,
and shredder would have won.
I never thought of it that way.
And the really neat part is
now that you're a rat again,
it leaves more pizza for us. Ha ha ha!
