When the evil Shredder attacks These turtle boys don't cut him no slack Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Splinter taught them to be ninja teens He's a radical rat.
Leonardo leads, Donatello does machines That's a fact, Jack.
Raphael is cool but rude Gimme a break ! Michelangelo is a party dude Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Heroes in a half shell Turtle power With all the equipment baxter left up there, we could turn that van into a tracking station and hunt down the technodrome but good.
yeah, but how are we gonna get it up there ? hmm.
couldn't we maybe have taken the elevator ? it wouldn't fit in the elevator.
shut up and push ! boy, check out this junk ! i bet old Donatello could whip up some heavyweight turtle gear with all these spare parts, huh ? yeah, but, like, what if baxter comes back ? ha ha.
baxter won't be back for a long time, Michelangelo.
the authorities didn't appreciate when he tried to take over the city with his mouser robots.
and i didn't appreciate it when they ate my apartment ! i wonder if all this work is worth it.
it will be when we hunt the Shredder down.
but why do we have to do it ? it's the humans' problem.
he seems to have it in for you guys, too.
or had you forgotten ? but us--turtles-- outcasts of society.
why do we have to stand alone against the forces of evil ? face it, man.
it's the only job we're qualified for.
oh, yeah.
you're right.
well, back to work.
you addlebrained idiot ! you can't even beat a bunch of miserable turtles ! i refuse to give you one more iota of my technology until you finish building my new body ! your body is but one of many biomechanical experiments i am conducting in the technodrome, Krang.
see ? i'm still refining my mutations on the punks.
this next batch will be infinitely superior to these 2 losers.
hey, what do you mean ? you just give us another shot, pal, and you'll see some squished turtles.
why are you wasting time on mutants ? my stone warriors are amassed in dimension x waiting to overrun this world at my command.
but i cannot let them see me like this.
dimension x of course.
the transdimensional portal is already complete.
your home dimension is a place of total war, is it not ? yes ! a war that's been carried on without me since i was banished here.
then i will get the weaponry i need by pulling it through dimension x ! no ! you can't ! but i must ! i, and i alone, must defeat my ancient enemy Hamato Yoshi and his wretched turtles ! Saki ! don't ! there's no telling what might come through that portal ! finished.
but the roof needs to be at least 3 feet higher, Donatello.
huh ? why ? so i can practice while we're driving.
all this gear, and you left out the pizza oven ! look, guys, i put every weapon i could think of on this crate, all the surveillance gear i could find.
this is as good as it gets.
now, do you want to find the technodrome or not ? yeah ! yeah ! come on, april.
let's rev this baby up and motorvate.
down the stairs ? relax, april.
we'll have gravity on our side.
that's just what scares me.
seat belts, everyone ! pizza time ! cowabunga ! in a moment, the gateway between earth and dimension x will be open for the first time ! all those weapons, guns from beyond our universe, will be mine ! ha ha ha ha ! now to gain the power of dimension x ! yee-haw ! stop them ! after them ! not so fast.
bail out ! boy, and i thought we were weird-looking.
ok, bebop.
let's turn these rock faces into gravel.
ha ha ! ah, this place is dumbsville, man.
let's cut out ! southeast, april.
roger dodger ! he must've stopped the technodrome under the global trade center.
april: that's one way to get a parking space.
wooh-hoo ! hyah-haa ! go, man ! go ! stop ! stop ! stop ! ohh ! we was just startin' to have fun.
shut up ! you are Krang's stone warriors, are you not ? yeah.
so ? there is something i must show you.
we've got to catch those kids.
the technodrome must be right under that tower.
that subway's the only way down.
let's do it ! am i seeing things, or did we just get buzzed by a couple of rocket-powered lowriders ? you aren't seeing things.
what strange plan is the Shredder hatching this time ? i don't know, but we'd better find out.
gun it, april ! those kids must be around here somewhere.
traag ! they couldn't have just vanished.
oh, sorry, lord.
huh ? lord Krang ! don't look at me ! my lord, what has happened to your body ? it's a long story.
i lost it when they banished me to this miserable mud ball.
those 3 youths just blasted their way right out of my technodrome.
the neutrinos have eluded us.
neutrinos ? running loose here on earth ? Saki, you imbecile ! why, i ought to what did i do ? who are these neutrinos ? a gang of juvenile delinquents from dimension x.
they're a threat to everything we stand for.
they hate war.
they refuse to join any armies.
and what's worse, they encourage people to have fun.
uh, they're-- they're heading south.
no, no.
north ! uh, they're heading south and north ! wah-ha-ha-ha ! daddy-o ! this is one unhip primitive society ! yeah, i bet they don't have gyroburgers ! and they probably never even heard of asteroid fizzle.
our only chance is to get ahead of them by analyzing the pattern of where they've been.
you can make a pattern out of all of that ? we can cut 'em off right there.
take the technorover.
it's the most heavily armed vehicle we have.
all right.
let's get those kids.
here they come.
activate turtle-launcher ! cowabunga ! ok, buddies.
pull over.
book 'em, dono.
uhh ! i'm trying.
i'm trying.
split, squares ! scratch one turtle.
hey, watch it.
you're ruining my finish.
uhh ! ok, sister, move to the rear.
let me go, you cube.
we must capture the pilot and force him to land.
yeah.
with what ? with my elbow pad.
hey ! i can't see ! we're crashing ! pull the stick up, Michelangelo.
aww, look what they did to my shell.
aw, keep cool.
a little wax, and it'll shine like new.
Shredder must really be desperate if he's throwing geeks like you at us.
the who ? don't tell us you never heard of the Shredder.
dig, cats-- one minute we're having a blast in dimension x, then suddenly we're in a room with some weirdo in a metal mask.
hold the phone.
i think we're all on the same side.
you got 'em ! who are they ? let's interrogate them.
relax, april.
they're cool.
cool ? daddy-o, we are frozen.
why is it i never understand what's going on ? oh, we sure are getting some weird characters in here, louie.
yeah, what do you expect in this crazy town ? man, oh, man ! this is the swingingest ! ha ha ha ! we didn't think you cats knew how to have fun.
yeah, we thought this was the planet of the squares, man.
will somebody fill me in on what's going on ? what is this dimension x ? it's grimsville.
all the grownups ever do is fight.
us neutrinos are the only ones who like having fun, and most of the time, the grownups won't let us.
they say it gets in the way of their stupid war ! that's how we would up here.
some soldiers were after us just 'cause we were drivin' through their dumb old battlefield.
you don't know what it's like, living in a place where everybody wants to do you in just for the crime of being young.
aw, don't cry, calla.
hey, we won't let anyone hurt you here.
april: i'm worried.
about what, april ? i'm worried about what else might have come to our world from dimension-- all right, you neutrinos, come out fighting.
who are they ? stone warriors from dimension x ! they're bad.
yeah, i guessed that.
you got any weapons on those hot rods ? of course.
they're required by law ! we said we wouldn't let anyone hurt you, and we mean it.
come on.
gun it, april ! ah, look at them run.
activate confirmed kill cannon.
ready, aim eat hot lead, turkeys ! slick driving, april.
now take us alongside it.
rip it up, Leonardo.
we'll take them on foot.
fancy shooting, hepcats.
let's go back and eradicate them.
uh-oh, cats and kittens, you dig what i dig ? find all those creatures and take them down.
ah, some dirty rat must've squealed to the coppers about us.
ah.
don't those squares you're on their side ? nah, humans don't know nothin' when it comes to turtles.
april: ahem ! uh, present company excepted.
has anyone stopped to think why the Shredder has a pipeline to an entirely different dimension ? those stone warriors could just be the beginning.
we must consult with master Splinter before taking further action.
neutrinos, follow us.
sewers, here we come.
we must fight our way through them and find the neutrinos.
this weather satellite will take care of them and the neutrinos.
but we don't need to know what the weather is.
this doesn't report weather, you idiot.
it makes weather ! it's Krang's old design.
aha within 2 hours, the weather it creates will stamp this city flat.
to the technodrome ! we must get back to the technodrome.
those neutrinos could attack lord Krang at any moment ! yes, and the weathermaker will soon tear this place apart.
let us commandeer that ground vehicle.
how do you engage the hyperdrive on this thing ? cop on loudspeaker: ok, you.
out of the truck ! cop: fire ! the bullets aren't stopping them ! we must get to Krang before those brats do.
Splinter: so, tell us more about these stone warriors.
they obey their leader-- a guy named Krang.
who is this Krang ? the supreme warlord of dimension x, man.
only he got exiled to another universe.
and his body got split, man.
and now he's just this way-out brain.
you said you saw some kind of brain when we were fighting the mousers yesterday, Michelangelo.
oh, you bet your sweet shell i did.
so that is where the Shredder has been getting his advanced technology to build a means back to his home dimension.
uh, how many of those stone warriors does Krang have in dimension x ? like, zillions, man.
then he's going bring them here and conquer our universe.
neutrinos, we have got to stop Krang.
turtles, we've gotta help them do it.
great.
but how ? we find this freak and push him through the portal back to dimension x.
don't worry, calla.
we won't let anything happen to you.
all right ! snow ! yeah, but in the middle of june ? uh, we certainly are having a lot of weather.
it's gotta be a stone warrior weathermaker.
look ! let's haul tail over to the technodrome before the monsoon season starts.
we'll never get the van up there.
april, stay here.
oh, again ?! dig, cats, the dimensional portal.
Donatello, try to figure out how to work this thing.
i'll cover you.
just what we needed-- company.
just what you're gonna get- a pounding.
i'm getting some way-out life readings ahead.
there he is ! he's the brains of this operation ! can you hold them off ? there's only 8 of them.
got you, shell-brain.
uhh ! now let's see what this does.
you little creep ! cowabunga ! it's no good ! we'll never get Krang past that force field.
we better scram.
excellent work, traag.
i'm going to pin a medal on you as soon as i get a pair of hands.
let's take them, Leonardo.
the dimensional portal is open.
great ! now to get those rockheads in there.
huh.
uhh ! Michelangelo, there's a barrel of silicone lubricant over there.
use it to give them the slip.
cowabunga ! ok, neutrinos, it's your turn.
b-but we want to stay with you and have fun ! i can't hold this thing open forever.
and it's your only ticket home.
he's right.
we can't stay here.
and we've got to carry on the fight against Krang in dimension x.
good-bye, you crazy turtles.
we'll miss you.
we'll miss you, too.
ok, Shredder.
this is it ! uh, on second thought the weathermaker.
we must head up and stop it.
after we stop the Shredder.
that crummy coward.
he split.
worry about it later.
we gotta save the city.
that thing'll blow this whole city clear to oz unless we stop it.
there it is.
i can't get a clear shot.
i'll handle it.
Leonardo ! nab him ! way to go, Leonardo.
yeah.
everybody complains about the weather, but you actually did something about it.
all right, Krang.
the turtles must be stopped, whatever it takes, so i shall complete your new body.
you must destroy them for me ! i'm glad to see you've finally come to your senses.
"and, as he crossed the finish line, "the tortoise realized "that slow and steady does win the race.
for he had beaten the hare.
" mmm.
i love that story.
oh, read it again, april.
but i've read it oh, just once more.
just a bunch of sleepyheads.
they'll need their rest because tomorrow we're going to find the Shredder and finish him.
They're heroes in the half shell and they're green Hey, get a grip.
