But since we brought the techno-drome back from dimension x, we've been stuck here.
And all our schemes to return to the surface of the planet have failed.
Because of those accursed teenage mutant ninja turtles.
I am constantly defeated by their prowess at the martial arts.
But no more.
I'll shall turn 2 of my own minions into unbeatable super ninjas.
What? Who? Bebop! Rock steady! Come up here at once.
Not those two.
It would take a miracle.
That's exactly what I had in mind.
What's up, boss? Get in the transport module.
We're heading earthward to the asian/american cultural center.
There's someone there I want you to meet.
Come back here! Oh, I should never have joined forces with a ninja.
Next time I conquer a planet, I'm using an accountant.
I've studied well the ways of our ancient foot clan.
Ha, those two aren't the only ones who can practice.
Hit it, Michelangelo.
Whoa! Check out these moves.
With our ninja fighting skills and superior pizza-making abilities, it's no wonder shredder stays hold up in the center of the earth.
April O'Neill here at the asian/american cultural center, where, among other ancient artifacts, a burial urn is on display.
It's reported to contain the ashes of a noble warrior who lived hundreds of years ago.
His name was shibano sama.
Shibano sama.
We must get there before shredder does.
Shredder? I'll explain on the way.
When shredder stole the leadership of the foot clan from me, he also stole the clan's sacred scrolls.
Now I fear he plans to use those scrolls to gain powers no mortal was meant to have.
What has this to do with the remains of shibano sama? He was the founder of the foot clan.
Heavy duty happening.
Yeah, just like a kung fu movie.
Our only hope is to beat shredder to the remains.
And you have failed as usual.
Shredder.
A little ninja potion of my own devising.
Knock-outGas.
Hurry, you two.
The effects of the gas will only last a few moments.
As leader of the foot clan, I call forth the spirit of its creator, shibano sama.
Shibano sama, come forth.
I beseech you.
Why have you summoned me? That you may teach my two minions the ways of the foot.
And make them invincible super ninjas.
Oh, boy.
On-the-job training.
Only the true leader of the foot clan may make such a request.
I am the true leader.
I have the sacred scrolls.
No way, hosebag.
Master splinter is the leader.
Tell him, master.
Who am I? Who are you? All false claimants to the clan throne must suffer the consequences.
Due to technical problems with master splinter, we're in deep trouble.
The gas gave him amnesia.
I'll hold them off while you get him back to the lair and work on an antidote.
You're the one who knows all about potions an--and antidotes and stuff.
I'll stay here and hold them off.
Boy, am I a glutton for punishment or what? Are you sure that potion will restore his memory? Yes, but it will take time.
Can you, like, remember anything, master? My mind is a complete blank.
We've got to jog his memory.
Your name is splinter, but your real name is hamato yoshi.
You lived in Japan, and you weren't a rat.
There was a ninja clan known as the foot.
You were their shidoshi, teacher of the warrior ways of enlightenment.
You were a quiet man who loved renaissance art.
But one student plotted to overthrow your leadership of the foot clan, oroku saki.
Then one day, a sensei, a master teacher, visited the foot school.
And oroku saki made his move.
Impudent dog.
Bow before our beloved master.
So you plot to kill our honorable sensei.
In disgrace, you fled to America.
Penniless, you were forced to live in the sewers.
Your only friends were the rats.
And then one day, a young boy dropped his pet turtles down the drain.
Meanwhile back in Japan, under oroku saki's evil leadership, the foot clan turned into an army of crime.
Back in New York, you lived happily with your turtles and rats.
But then one day, something else came down the drain, it was a powerful mutagen, it caused whoever touched it to take on the form of whatever animal it had most recently been in contact with.
We turtles started becoming human, because we'd most recently been with you.
But you'd most recently been in contact with the rats.
You named yourself splinter, for obvious reasons.
And you named us after your favorite renaissance painters and trained us in the art of ninjitsu.
I became Leonardo.
And there's Donatello, whose simple wooden Bo can disarm any adversary.
And Michelangelo, who is master of the whirling nunchakus.
And Raphael, who's really thrashed right now.
That right.
We've got to snap this thing up.
Does any of this sound familiar, sensei? I do not know.
I'm so unsure of everything.
What happened to oroku saki? And who poured that mutagen on you? It ties together.
Here, let me try.
See, it started when we met a woman named April O'Neill, April was a reporter covering a series of mysterious thefts at scientific companies by a guy who called himself shredder, and shredder didn't like that one bit.
Sign-off time, April O'Neill.
Chill out, homeboy.
Hey, watch it with that thing, pal.
Oh, whoever you are, you are dead.
Whoa! Weird-looking dudes.
Yeah, and they dress funny, too.
I don't know who you are, but thanks.
You'reNot human! Bingo! Now we're dealing with a real mind here.
You're--you're turtles.
Yep.
So we are.
I can't handle this.
Leonardo, are you sure this is really the time for us to be telling our life story? We've got to help master splinter get his memory back.
Well, yeah, but what about Raphael? Those goons are probably turning him into Sushi right now.
Your minions have great strength.
They'll make the ultimate ninja warriors.
And for practice, they will need a target.
Uh-oh.
How come I get the feeling it's going to be me? Hey! Who turned out the lights? Ohh.
Ha, you couldn't teach those boneheads anything in a million years.
Ah, but I am no ordinary teacher.
In the name of the emperor koneji, son of heaven, I give you the powers of the master ninjas.
We live only to serve our sensei.
What's keeping the guys? Why should I have all the fun? Oh, can you remember anything, master? Perhaps if you told me more.
Who exposed us to that mutagen? It was shredder himself.
See, he was rolling around under the city in this huge fortress called the techno-drome.
In addition to his robots, he also employed a bunch of punks, including a pair named, bebop and rock steady.
Just sit.
I wish I'd brought some comics.
What you doing to us, man? Just relax.
Uh, what do you need them animals for? And he turned them into mutants, just like he did to us.
Is any of this helping, master? A little.
I seem to remember, didn't oroku saki have some connection with shredder? Exactomundo! He was shredder.
But we didn't find that out until he captured you.
All right, buddy, just come along peacefully.
Don't make this any tougher on yourself.
Naturally, we came to your rescue.
Master splinter's walking stick! He's never without it.
He must be in trouble! Indeed, he is.
Ha ha ha.
If you want to see him again, you'll have to come in.
It's got to be a trap! I hate it when he says that.
Splinter! I'll cut you down, master.
I must congratulate you.
It's the guys we fought last night.
You passed your test with flying colors.
Test? What test? Your hairy little friend knows me as oroku saki.
But you may call me The shredder.
A kitchen utensil? You would be wise to lose your flippant ways if you wish to join the honorable foot clan.
Why should we want to do that? Because it was I who made you what you are today.
Don't deny your destiny.
Join me.
Does the phrase, "go suck a lemon" hold any meaning for you? Let's cut him down! Very well.
I have my own mutants.
Bebop! Rock steady! Destroy them! Oh, with great pleasure, master shredder.
Grrr.
Grrr.
Jump for it! You idiots! The mutation didn't up their iqs any.
Come on, splinter.
We're checking out of this dump.
Come on, you fools! I just hope I haven't missed out on the action! Rest here a moment, master.
You know, that was almost too easy.
I really wish you'd stop saying things like that.
Bebop and rock steady were ready to make mince meat out of us.
[GROWLS.]
Say your prayers, turtles.
So bebop and rock steady came after you.
Uh-huh And were they mad.
[GROWLS.]
Well, well, well, lookie what we found.
[SNORTS.]
We've got a score to settle with you little twerps.
[GRUNTING.]
Aw, did I hurt youse? This'll make it better.
We don't like rats in our fair city.
[SNORTS.]
Maybe I should just wring your stinkin' neck.
Not so fast, homeboy.
[SNORTING.]
Drink blazin' electric death, turtles! Ah, the boy likes his work.
'Scuse me, but is any of this stuff jogging your memory, master? Ahh, I'm not sure.
I'm so confused.
Leonardo, even if we do get his memory back, how can he stop shredder? If splinter can prove he is the true leader of the foot clan, shibano sama will turn against shredder.
Yeah, but how? The kur li maneuver.
Oh, I've heard splinter talk about it, but I've never seen him use it.
It's a fighting move known only by the true leader of the foot clan.
If splinter's memory comes back, he can do the kur li maneuver for shibano sama.
And prove that shredder's lying.
Strange that oroku saki now had all this technology.
I seem to recall He was not alone.
No, duh! There was this alien dude from dimension x named krang.
Well, he was this war criminal who'd been banished to earth and had his body take away.
So he was using shredder to built him a new bod.
Excellent.
I want you to add to it this molecular amplification unit.
But why? Saki, you fool, don't waste time.
Your forces are depleted.
The turtles are on their way.
Install the chip now! All right.
I'll do it.
You may feel some disorientation when you revive in your new body.
It's alive! It's alive! Krang's body had a circuit that turned him into this giant economy size.
Holy guacamole! Nothing can stop the almighty krang.
Well, naturally we thought it'd be a mondo notion to bring all of this to a screeching halt.
Oh, where's Godzilla when you really need it? Well, guys, it's been great knowing you.
What the heck? Come on, guys! Welcome aboard the turtle blimp.
Does this thing actually work? Just watch.
Cowabunga! We've got to shrink him down! I am krang, the all-powerful! I have never been defeated! Well, you never tangled with a turtle before, pal.
Let's kick some shell.
Shredder, come quickly.
Uh-oh.
It's that retro-muto thingamabob.
He's gonna use it to turn us back into ordinary turtles.
Well, gang, looks like it's back to the old pet shop for us.
Far from it.
Tonight I dine on turtle soup.
Ahh! No! Master splinter! Climb on my back.
Of course! I remember it all.
Where is Raphael? Ahh! He's trapped in the cultural center.
We haven't a moment to lose.
Excellent.
You have mastered every fighting maneuver known to the foot clan.
All but one, I believe.
Does any of these impostors know The kur li maneuver? Ah, well, only the true leader of the foot clan may know it.
Do you? [MOAN AND GROANS.]
The kur li maneuver! Ah, I can't move.
Whoo whoo whoo.
Whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo nkuk, nkuk, nkuk, nkuk, nkuk.
You impostors! Mama! They got away.
Hey, don't worry.
They always do that.
And surely, it's time you returned to your place in eternity, shibano sama.
Perhaps you're correct.
You have been a wise teacher, hamato yoshi.
And to you students, I say, always follow the noble path of the foot, be faithful to your master, be virtuous and truthful, and Save the last slice of pizza for me.
