This is April O'Neil
at the Top Notch Scientific Corporation
talking with Dr. Winston Sturdley
about his latest invention,
the Sonic Disintegrator.
Tell us how it works, Doctor.
It uses ultra-high frequency sound waves
to reduce solid metal to powder.
Allow to me demonstrate.
I'll be darned. I know know what--
Oh, dear-- Oh!
Uh-huh. This is April O'Neil
for Channel 6 News, signing off.
A sonic disintegrator?
What would anyone do with that?
What a dweeb.
Building a gizmo that just destroys stuff.
Oops.
I've got a feeling
that we better head over to Top Notch Scientific
and keep on eye on that invention.
What for?
Well, every time April does a report
about some new scientific breakthrough,
Shredder sees it, too, and shows up to steal it.
You know, Raphael's right.
There is something of a pattern there.
And that Sonic Disintegrator is just the sort of thing
they could put to some terrible use.
Come on!
Well, this is a laugh and a half.
All-in-all, dudes, I'd rather be home in a cool sewer
with a warm pizza.
Do you think we over-reacted this time?
I don't think so.
Listen.
[doorknob rattling]
This is it. It's them.
Big Louie and his gang?
Swell. We're here at the right time but it's the wrong guys.
The Turtles.
Nail 'em, boys.
I gotta tell ya, I think I would've preferred Shredder.
You doity toitles, it's coitains for you, see?
Wow, this guy's been watching way too many '30s gangster movies.
Let's get those goofazoids!
I'll take that.
Hey!
Can I quote you on that?
My turn!
Ha! Works every time.
But you never tried that before.
Well, so? Every time I've tried it, it's worked.
Whoa!
Uh-huh. That's what you get for showing off.
Well, don't just stand there, help me!
Nice to be needed.
Uh, excuse me?
Hi. Don't you think it's time you cracked a few books?
Hey, where's Big Louie?
That big chicken. He split.
Those rotten shellbacks.
They'll pay for this.
All right you losers. What does a crook like Big Louie want
with a sonic disintegrator?
Why should we tell you?
I can give you three good reasons.
Hey! In that case,
he wanted to use it to disintegrate the doors on the bank vaults.
Uh, yeah. He said we'd go on a bank robbing spree,
and nothing could stop us.
Except the boys in green.
[distant police siren] Uh-oh.
Here come the boys in blue.
Come on, let's split.
The police can handle these jokers.
[crowd murmuring]
[crowd noises]
[screaming]
[robotic voice] Possible target site located.
Negative contact. Proceeding to next target.
I guess we showed those crooks.
For sure. I say we've earned some well-deserved goof-off time.
Not so fast, Michelangelo.
My intuition tells me Krang and Shredder are behind this.
Let us hope you are incorrect, Leonardo.
Hold on, it's April.
We interrupt for a special report.
A short while ago on this spot,
a strange-looking machine appeared from the sky,
terrorizing the city and causing mass hysteria.
So far, the only damage it's done has been to the entryways of office buildings.
Looks like we're hitting the bricks again, dudes.
I'm telling you, something this weird doesn't happen without
Krang and Shredder being involved.
From the looks of it, I'd say this thing came from outer space.
Not the bottom of the ocean.
Whatever this thing is, it's totally mechanical.
It came here packed like a pickle.
Excuse me.
Not now, Michelangelo.
The question is, why is this, this thing, so interested in business buildings?
Maybe it's looking for office space.
Excuse me.
Not now, Donatello.
Look. A mini-missile.
What did I tell ya?
That has to be Krang and Shredder.
Oh, will you knock it off already?
They're not even in this episode.
Excuse me.
Later, Raphael.
Ah, this is getting boring.
Check it out. Gold!
Did I say boring? Heh-heh. Erase that.
This is absolutely fascinating.
Excuse me.
Not now!
But I believe that is mine.
Kerma! Whoa!
Our little amigo from the planet Shel-ra-la.
That sheet of gold is yours?
Yes. As you know, we turtleoids need
gold's reflected light for energy.
Ahh, that is most refreshing.
Good thing you found that gold sheet.
Oh, no problem. I could easily have made another with my miniature gold machine.
I must have dropped this one when I was looking for your earlier.
I've been seeking you out to ask for your help.
You see, I have a small problem.
Come. We can talk about it in my space ship.
Hey, that's right. I nearly forgot.
Your space ship looks just like one of our office buildings.
Way cool!
We can talk inside.
Kerma, I hate to remind you pal,
but the last time you had a small problem,
it turned out to be a 100-foot tall monster
with two heads, named Herman the Horrible.
Yeah, I still carry a picture of him in my wallet.
I assure you, my problem is not as large this time.
Target in sight.
Target achieved.
Destroy. Destroy.
That's your small problem?
I'm afraid so.
I'd hate to be around when you had a big one.
Destroy. Destroy.
Kerma, you really should try to pick a better class of friends.
Believe me, Raphael, Destructor X is no friend.
Enough talk, let's take him!
Whoa! Shish-kabob city!
So that's why it's been blasting its way into buildings.
It's been looking for Kerma's space ship.
Terrific. Now how about figuring out some way to stop it?
Target locked on. Destroy.
This place can definitely be hazardous to your health.
Kerma, aren't there any weapons on this ship?
I'm afraid not. We turtleoids are a peaceful race.
Don't you remember what happened on Shel-ra-la?
Yeah, these turtleoid dudes
don't have anything to protect them but their shells.
That is why I came to you for help.
Remind us to ask you for a favor some time.
Whoa! I think I found something.
Eat blazing electrons!
Bummer.
It's only a flashlight.
Aargh!
Well, whaddya know? It worked.
Bright lights must interfere with its sensor functions.
Kerma, is there a back way out of this ship?
Yes, this way.
Then let's go.
Keep moving. That thing is sure to be following us.
Okay, we know it has one weakness, bright lights.
Now to get someplace safe until we come up with a way
to defeat that walking arsenal.
Hey dudes, what about Channel 6?
They've got mondo bright lights in the studios.
Lights. What a bright idea.
Hey! I made a funny.
Hi, Vernon.
Nice night, huh? Huh?
I could swear I saw five of those green weirdoes
instead of the usual four.
Must be all that overtime I've been putting in.
Whoa, those stinkin' turtles.
Not only do they keep me from stealing that sonic disintegrator,
but they get two of my best goons tossed in the slammer.
So help me, I'll make those amphibians pay, but good.
Uh, technically, they're not amphibians, boss, they're reptiles.
Who asked ya?
Hold on, it's one of them mugs from Channel 6 who are in tight with them toitles.
What's the meaning of this?
We pedestrians have the right-of-way.
But I'd be happy to vote to have that law changed.
Just don't hurt me, please.
I'm looking for them four slimy turtles.
You know where they are?
Uh, actually,
it may be five slimy turtles.
Never mind the arithmetic lesson,
where are they?
Th-they're at Channel 6.
I just saw them go in.
Kerma, are you saying that thing that's been terrorizing
this city is actually after you?
Yes, it is called Destructor X.
A law enforcement drone designed to track down
the galaxy's most vicious criminals.
Since when is a piece of a little guy like you
a vicious criminal?
Destructor X was programmed to go after
a notorious space pirate named Nurma.
But due to an electronic error,
it came out "Kerma."
You mean that thing is out to blow you away
because of a glitch?
Apparently so.
Another triumph for science.
[loud crashing noise]
Uh-oh. Here it comes again, dudes.
All right toitles, say your prayers.
Oh, not again.
Well, at least it's not Shredder and his mutants.
Yeah, this should be a light workout.
Uh-oh. More like the main event, dudes.
April, hit the lights.
All right!
What's that thing?
Who cares? I'm after those toitles!
Okay, boss. That's one of them.
Hey, what's this?
Gold!
Where did you get this, turtle?
I, uh, uh, I made it myself
with my portable gold machine.
Gold machine?
Forget the turtle,
this thing's worth it's weight in...in... uh...
gold?
Just the word I was looking for.
Come on, boys, let's scram.
Destroy! Destroy!
Man, is there any part of that thing's body that isn't a weapon?
Apparently not.
Guys, at this rate,
we're going to run out of lights in about one minute.
Anybody come up with a plan yet?
Yeah. Let's run for it.
You too, Kerma.
Wait! There's a small problem.
So, would someone explain why Big Louie
was breaking into Channel 6?
Earlier tonight, we stopped him from stealing that sonic disintegrator.
That's it! The sonic disintegrator.
It's the one thing that might stop that metal maniac.
My friend,
I'm afraid there is a little problem.
Oh, Kerma, not again.
Look, is this a "little" little problem, or a "big" little problem?
That nasty person took my gold machine.
And I'm too weak to go on.
I'd call that a humongous problem.
We're going to have to get Kerma to someplace safe. [beep]
Master Splinter.
What is it, Leonardo? We need your help.
Meet us at April's apartment, and please hurry.
Kerma, you better lie down.
You're going to have to guard him, master.
In case that Destructor X shows up again.
I will do my best.
Donatello, you and Michelangelo head over
to Top Notch Scientific
and get that sonic disintegrator.
Raphael and I will take care of Big Louie.
Go green machine!
That'll be five dollars, gents.
Here you go, pal. Keep the change.
Those are Big Louie's men inside.
We can follow them to his hideout.
And Kerma's gold machine.
I'm afraid he's growing weaker.
I have locked all the stairway doors.
That is all we can do for now. [crashing sound]
Uh-oh.
Company.
Those locked doors aren't going to slow that thing down.
We must get Kerma out of here.
Quickly.
Hurry, April.
Come, April. We must do something to defend ourselves.
Defend ourselves? How?
Donatello told me about its one weak spot.
Its eyes.
I have a plan.
Visual field nullified.
Puree Marble Company.
So that's Big Louie's hideout.
Funny, I thought that guy lost his marbles years ago.
Come on.
Aww, what's wrong with this stupid gold machine?
I shoulda made that turtle tell us how it works
before we grabbed it.
I'll get their attention.
You cover me.
Cover you? With what?
With these.
Come on, already.
I wanna be rich beyond the wildest dreams of avarice.
Aw, gee, boss. What a pretty phrase.
What's it mean?
I dunno, I heard it in a movie once.
Don't worry, Big Louie.
You'll have plenty of time to look it up.
In the prison library.
It's one of them Turtles.
Grab him, boys.
Here guys. Catch!
All right, let's go.
They got the gold machine.
My dreams of untold riches have vanished.
Mondo bizarro.
We keep this gizmo from being stolen
just so we can steal it ourselves?
We're not stealing it, Michelangelo.
We're just borrowing it.
Besides, it's for a good cause.
Thanks to that paint, it can't see us.
Why don't we make a break for it?
We must stay and distract it.
It will soon find Kerma on the roof.
Uh-oh.
Look!
Oh! Now what?
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Visibility once again impeded.
Oh, quick thinking, Splinter.
Hurry, April. To the roof.
It found us.
I'll handle it.
Can...not...see.
Error. Target not present.
Target located.
No! No, it's spotted him.
No! Stop!
Commencing destruction sequence.
Not so fast, you chromium creep!
Try this on for size.
Poor guy. He's all shook up.
We got the gold machine back, so Kerma should be okay.
[Yawn]
Oh, sorry. I must've dozed off.
Have I missed anything exciting?
Oh, nothing much.
We'll tell you about it sometime.
Are you sure you can get back to Shel-ra-la with this hole in your ship?
Oh, yes. I'll just seal off this level and navigate
from the upper control room.
My friends, how can I ever thank you
for all you've done for me?
Well, it's nothing we wouldn't do for any fellow turtle, dude.
But from now on,
try to make sure your little problems really are little.
Yeah, like maybe even teensy-weensy micro problems.
Farewell, my friends.
Whoa, for a peaceful little turtle that Kerma sure gets into a lot of trouble.
Yeah, I know.
I mean, we're turtles, too,
and things like that never happen to us. [alarm bell]
[alarm bell continues] Look! A break-in.
Let's get 'em.
Stop, thieves!
Cowabunga!
Freeze, you nerd balls!
Turtle power!
