[SCREAMING.]
Come on, alien scum! Make my night! [ANNOUNCER.]
This is Rondo! Oh, man, this is too much! How can you guys watch that big phony? Dude, he's no phony.
Rondo's totally cool! It's only a commercial for his new movie, Raphael.
Yeah, and look what April got us: four tickets to the premier of it.
Rondo VIII: Hit Hardest.
Yeah, I think I'll wait for the home video.
And I need to do my ninja workout.
Don't pass this one up, dudes.
The theater is serving free pizza.
On the other hand It is a unique cultural event.
And we wouldn't want to disappoint April.
Where are you going, Donatello? The movie doesn't start for a couple of hours.
Oh, April arranged for me to use the City College biology lab this week.
There's April now.
This is April O'Neil here at the elegant Bijou Theater for the premier of a new movie.
In a moment, I'll have an exclusive interview with the star, Rondo himself.
Stay tuned to Channel 6.
Ugh, another movie star interview? Why can't I cover some real news? [KRANG.]
Shredder, look at this! What is it, Krang? Have you won the lottery.
Bigger, better.
I have established a computer link to the biology laboratory at City College on Earth.
A student there is working on a substance called a vitalizer.
Is this where I'm supposed to ask what it does? I'll tell you anyway.
A vitalizer can bring inanimate objects to life.
Imagine, Shredder! Limitless armies of zombie-like objects under my command.
The thought sends shivers down my spine.
You don't have a spine.
Always the cheap shot, huh, Shredder? But never mind that.
We must have that vitalizer.
It could give us-- Enough! Enough! We'll leave immediately.
Splendid.
I'll activate the portal.
Boy, this City College lab has some incredible equipment.
Who are you? What are you doing here? [GASPS.]
You're a Ninja Turtle! Well, Donatello to be exact.
I never knew you had an interest in science.
Man does not live by turtle food alone.
I'm Oswald Duran.
I've been working on an experimental substance called a vitalizer.
A vitalizer? Yeah-huh.
It activates the molecules of inanimate objects.
Wow.
That would be a major scientific breakthrough.
Except that someone is tapping into my computer and changing the numbers.
It's as if he's trying to guide my work.
Hmm, I wonder if that's Krang and Shredder's doing.
They'd love to get their hands on a vitalizer.
Krang? Shredder? Who are they? Uh, you're better off not knowing.
[WATCH BEEPS.]
Uh-oh.
I'm off to work.
I'm a part-time projectionist at The Bijou.
Oh, I'm headed there too! We can go together.
Find that vitalizer! Hoo-hoo, look! It's Cheezy and Sleazy.
Ooh, ooh! My favorite show! Stop watching those stupid cartoons and find the vitalizer! [CAT SCREECHING.]
[BEBOP.]
Hey! Cheezy and Sleazy jumped out of the TV! See, I told you they was real.
But how can cartoons come to life, boss? Only one way.
That student must have succeeded in creating the vitalizer! But where is he? Maybe he took it to the movies? To the movies? Yeah.
Look, boss.
Well, well.
We'll give them a show they won't soon forget.
Rondo, I'm sure your many fans want to know: what are you really like? Oh, I'm no different, really, from any other filthy rich, pampered superstar.
Whoa, totally epic.
Rondo in the flesh.
A moment that will be etched in my memory forever.
Now where's the free pizza? From humble beginnings, I worked my way up to where I am today: big, tough, and mean.
[MICHELANGELO.]
The dude is shrimp-sized.
Isn't movie magic wonderful? So long, fans.
Don't miss me in my latest adventure, Rondo VIII: Hit Hardest.
For you, babe.
This is April O'Neil live for Channel 6 News, signing off.
Hi, fellas.
I'm glad you could make it.
Pizza is our pied piper.
See you later, Donatello.
Right, Oswald.
That's Oswald.
He's the film projectionist.
Yo, dudes, if we stand around here any longer, we'll miss the mozzar-- The, uh, movie! Hehheh ha! [MONSTERS GROWLING.]
[SIGHS.]
How much longer is this movie? Too long.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING.]
[RAPHAEL LAUGHING.]
Now this I like! Those shadows look mondo familiar.
It's Shredder and the mutants! They're in the projection booth.
And they're after Oswald.
Let's stop 'em! [SHREDDER.]
Give that to me! [OSWALD.]
No! Donatello told me all about you! You'll never get my vitalizer! The Turtles! The Ninja Turtles! Oh, am I ever glad to see you! Now I have what I need! Rocksteady, deal with those shellbacks.
Right, boss.
This rock is going to roll! [TURTLES YELLING.]
[CHEERING.]
The audience thinks this is part of the show.
Well, I am insulted.
This is better than that movie.
Give me that vitalizer.
Whoa, you've made me spill it.
[GROWLING, SNARLING.]
The vitalizer brought those movie monsters to life! Ah! [PEOPLE SCREAMING.]
This is your movie.
Do something! I am.
I'm getting out of here.
[BEBOP.]
I'm out of here! Oh, no! Look out for that pillar! Oh, no! Thanks for the rescue, you big lug, but put me down! Those creatures are getting away with April.
[SCREAMING.]
[ROARING.]
We've got to save her.
Ho ho, those movie monsters will keep the Turtles busy for a while.
We must take this vitalizer back to Krang.
[APRIL.]
Help! Someone help! They're up there! [APRIL.]
Put me down! [WHISTLES.]
Hey, Big and Ugly, drop that lady now! [SCREAMS.]
Ooh! Oh, thanks a lump, Raphael.
[GROWLING.]
[TURTLES.]
Whoa! Oh, no! [TURTLES.]
Whoa! [MICHELANGELO.]
Take that, alien dudes! Donatello, would you mind explaining how those movie monsters came to life? Me? How should I know? Well, who would know? [OSWALD.]
Oh, I'm sorry, folks.
It's the formula I invented that brought those creatures to life.
Brilliant move.
Well, you've got to figure out a way to put those monsters back on the movie screen where they belong.
Come on, Oswald, let's get back to your lab and see what we can do.
Right, Donatello.
Meanwhile, I'm off to Channel 6 to cover the story.
[RUMBLING.]
What was that? Rondo.
Why were you hiding in that crate.
Uh, who? Me? Wait a minute.
Who are you? We're the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
And you're just the one to help us find those creatures.
Uh, sorry.
Late for a meeting.
[MICHELANGELO.]
Dude, you've got to help.
Us fans are counting on you.
My fans? Well, that's different.
[MELODRAMATICALLY.]
You can count on Rondo! All right, dude! Oh, ow! Oh, oh, ouch! [WHIMPERING.]
Did you have to do that so hard? Yeah, I think we've got big problems.
Oh, what a relief.
We must have scared them off.
[GROWLING.]
Oh, please don't let them hurt me.
Rondo, you're frightened? No, not frightened.
Petrified! Mama! The dude is a total wimp.
[RAPHAEL.]
Hey, those creatures are going after Rondo instead of us.
They must think they're still in the flick.
Come on, Turtles.
We've got a hero to save! [DONATELLO.]
You mean you don't remember how you mixed the vitalizer? Uh, no.
But if that Krang fellow was helping me through this computer link-up, the data should still be in the computer.
I hope you're right.
[MONSTERS ROARING.]
Oh, no.
Stay away, please.
[TIRES SCREECHING.]
Look, you can see those car's headlights right through the creatures.
So what? So, maybe we can use it against them.
It's working! Come on, guys.
Hit the lights! Fantabuloso! They don't dig light.
That means they'll be easier to fight in the daylight.
But there's still a lot of darkness left.
This is all the vitalizer you could find? Don't worry! It's more than enough to terrorize the people of earth.
Oh? And what are you going to terrorize them with? More Cheezy and Sleazy cartoons? Oh, so you heard about that, huh? [ELECTRONIC WARBLING.]
Someone is operating the City College computer.
They must not get the vitalizer formula! You must stop them! [SIZZLING.]
[DONATELLO.]
Well, that formula didn't work either.
Oh, let's not use this footage.
It's the scene where Rondo is trapped in a pit full of poisonous snakes.
That sounds like just the scene I'm looking for.
Shredder! It's turtle-tramplin' time! [RAPHAEL.]
Why are we here, Michelangelo? Did those movie monsters own a condominium? No, but Rondo does.
I saw it on Entertainment Tomorrow.
Oh, yeah? So which condo belongs to Rondo? [LAUGHS.]
I'm sorry.
I just couldn't resist.
Well, actually, it's the penthouse.
We'll take the turtle elevator! I know it's a silly question, but why didn't we just take the regular elevator? I prefer the element of surprise.
[SKIDDING OBJECT.]
[ALL.]
Whoa! [RAPHAEL.]
You're right, Leonardo.
It works every time.
Ugh! Got you, Rondo.
[RONDO.]
Oh, no.
My favorite sofa.
Suddenly, the phrase "on the ropes" takes on a whole new meaning.
Thanks to your vitalizer, the famous monsters of film land will soon be appearing all over the city.
Allow me to give you a preview of coming attractioattractionss.
[SNAKES HISSING.]
Oh, no.
Poisonous snakes! [STRAINING.]
Ugh.
Come on, Oswald.
We've got to get out of here.
[GROANS.]
I'm trying! [HISSING.]
[OSWALD.]
Another Rondo? That's not the real Rondo.
That's the movie Rondo.
Ah-hah! Two people who need my help! Or is it one person and a turtle? Heeyah! Hiyah! So much for those reptiles.
Now, to set you two free.
Gee, thanks, Mr.
Rondo.
Now, if you folks will excuse me, I've got a couple of monsters to stop.
Now that Rondo is brave.
Of course.
Movie heroes are always brave.
Let's go, Oswald.
He'll lead us to the Turtles.
[MONSTERS GROWLING.]
[OSWALD.]
There goes the movie Rondo.
[TURTLES, RONDO.]
Whoa! It's the guys.
They're in trouble.
Never fear.
I, Rondo, will save you! It's another Rondo.
Ha ha! Taste the bitterness of defeat, alien scum! Hurry, Oswald, we've got to save the guys.
[GROANS.]
Prepare to face the wrath of an enraged Rondo! [CAR TIRES SCREECH, HORN BLARES.]
That guy is good.
Well, naturally.
He learned it all from me.
It'll take more than a fall to defeat those evil creatures! I'll go after them, then.
[MICHELANGELO.]
Doesn't the dude ever use an elevator? Hi, guys.
Uh, sorry we missed rescuing you.
No problemo! That Rondo took care of it.
How many Rondos are there? Oh, uh, two-- the movie Rondo and the real one.
Sureit's easy for him to be heroic.
In the movies Rondo always wins.
Shredder plans to unleash all sorts of movie monsters on the city.
We've got to find an antidote to the vitalizer.
Wait! Don't leave me.
Those creatures might come back.
[KRANG.]
Now what is this ingenious plan of yours, Shredder? It's quite simple, Krang.
This is a reel of film clips from a monster movie marathon.
With the help of the vitalizer, I shall bring these film monsters to life.
Splendid, Shredder.
The people of Earth will beg to surrender to me if I promise to remove these monsters from their city.
But of course we have no way of doing that.
Well, I know, but just think of all that wonderful begging.
[DONATELLO.]
Oh, it's not use.
Krang must have erased every bit of data on the vitalizer.
We have no way of making an antidote.
Swell.
That means no way of getting those monsters back into the film.
You mean I have to put up with that overbearing movie Rondo? [TURTLECOM WARBLING.]
Donatello here.
Hi, guys.
I thought you might like to know that Shredder, Bebop, and Rocksteady have been spotted at the Bijou Theater.
Thanks, April.
We're on our way.
Shredder is going to bring the monsters from the horror movie screening to life.
Let's boogey, amigos! I'll stay and try to remember how I made the vitalizer.
I'll, uh, stay and help him.
[ANNOUNCER.]
The monster movie marathon, with your favorite feature creatures starts at midnight at the newly remodeled Bijou Theater.
Be there and be scared.
Whoohahaha [SHREDDER.]
Fools! They're going to see movies, all right.
The premier of the conquest of Earth, starring me! [LAUGHING.]
Gee, boss, can me and Bebop get screen credit too? Have your agent call me.
Now come to the projection booth.
[LEONARDO.]
If we can't stop Shredder from releasing those movie monsters, we've got to get them back on the screen.
Mondo notion, dude.
Uh, but any suggestions as to how? Well, we know they can't stand bright lights.
Great.
I'll file that away in my collection of movie monster fun facts.
[PEOPLE SCREAMING.]
[MICHELANGELO.]
Whoa, my favorite horror flick superstar! Big Slug invades Burbank! We'll never be able to fight off all these monsters.
Never fear! Rondo is here! You guys help Rondo.
I'll be in the projection booth.
Ha ha! The people are in a panic! [KRANG.]
Wonderful, Shredder! Make more monsters.
More! Wait! Those blasted Turtles are here! They're battling the Movie Monsters! The fools! They will be destroyed! [ROCK.]
No! No! Turtle blood is bad for you.
Whoa! Stay in there monster dudes.
It's safer for me! [GROWLING.]
Take that, villainous creatures! I want to enjoy the end of those four meddlesome reptiles.
Wait a minute.
There are only three of them.
[GROANING.]
It's that student boy.
Donatello, this is the last vial of the vitalizer formula.
I destroyed every record of it.
Great! Bring the vial up here! The last vial! We must get it! Yeah.
This reel will be perfect.
Break down the door.
We must have that vitalizer! They'll be in here in a second, [GUNSHOTS.]
and they'll get the vitalizer! That's what I want them to do.
They'll be in for a "reel" surprise.
Give me the vitalizer, now! Help! Help me, someone! Help! I can't turn my back on him for a second.
You can't turn your back on these monsters, either! Is there gonna be an intermission soon? Get that vitalizer! Stay away, you, you-- Got it, Boss! Oh, with this vitalizer and film, Earth will soon be overrun with monsters! Krang, open the portal! [DONATELLO.]
Come on.
We've gotta stop those monsters! There's too many of them.
But they don't like light Come on! Help me aim these searchlights at the monsters.
[MONSTERS GROANING.]
[DONATELLO.]
It's working.
The light is weakening them! [GROWLING, GROANING.]
A battle awaits.
Farewell! Lighten up, Rondude.
One day I'll bet you'll be as brave as that movie Rondo.
[TURTLES.]
Nah.
But Shredder has the vitalizer and the film.
He and Krang can make all the monsters they want.
Uh, don't bet on it.
[KRANG.]
For once, you have done well.
I have, haven't I? The vitalizer poured onto this film will create an army of monsters that no one can stop! Ooh! Ooh! Let me pour it, Boss.
No! I wanna! Stop, you numskulls! [BEBOP.]
Whoa! Now see what you've done! Oh, look.
It's Cheezy and Sleazy.
Ow! [KRANG.]
Shredder, you idiot! [ROCKSTEADY.]
Those Turtles switched the films! [KRANG.]
Stop them! [VILLAINS GRUNTING, GROANING.]

This is a reel of film clips from a monster movie marathon.
With the help of the vitalizer, I shall bring these film monsters to life.
Splendid, Shredder.
The people of Earth will beg to surrender to me if I promise to remove these monsters from their city.
But of course we have no way of doing that.
Well, I know, but just think of all that wonderful begging.
[DONATELLO.]
Oh, it's not use.
Krang must have erased every bit of data on the vitalizer.
We have no way of making an antidote.
Swell.
That means no way of getting those monsters back into the film.
You mean I have to put up with that overbearing movie Rondo? [TURTLECOM WARBLING.]
Donatello here.
Hi, guys.
I thought you might like to know that Shredder, Bebop, and Rocksteady have been spotted at the Bijou Theater.
Thanks, April.
We're on our way.
Shredder is going to bring the monsters from the horror movie screening to life.
Let's boogey, amigos! I'll stay and try to remember how I made the vitalizer.
I'll, uh, stay and help him.
[ANNOUNCER.]
The monster movie marathon, with your favorite feature creatures starts at midnight at the newly remodeled Bijou Theater.
Be there and be scared.
Whoohahaha [SHREDDER.]
Fools! They're going to see movies, all right.
The premier of the conquest of Earth, starring me! [LAUGHING.]
Gee, boss, can me and Bebop get screen credit too? Have your agent call me.
Now come to the projection booth.
[LEONARDO.]
If we can't stop Shredder from releasing those movie monsters, we've got to get them back on the screen.
Mondo notion, dude.
Uh, but any suggestions as to how? Well, we know they can't stand bright lights.
Great.
I'll file that away in my collection of movie monster fun facts.
[PEOPLE SCREAMING.]
[MICHELANGELO.]
Whoa, my favorite horror flick superstar! Big Slug invades Burbank! We'll never be able to fight off all these monsters.
Never fear! Rondo is here! You guys help Rondo.
I'll be in the projection booth.
Ha ha! The people are in a panic! [KRANG.]
Wonderful, Shredder! Make more monsters.
More! Wait! Those blasted Turtles are here! They're battling the Movie Monsters! The fools! They will be destroyed! [ROCK.]
No! No! Turtle blood is bad for you.
Whoa! Stay in there monster dudes.
It's safer for me! [GROWLING.]
Take that, villainous creatures! I want to enjoy the end of those four meddlesome reptiles.
Wait a minute.
There are only three of them.
[GROANING.]
It's that student boy.
Donatello, this is the last vial of the vitalizer formula.
I destroyed every record of it.
Great! Bring the vial up here! The last vial! We must get it! Yeah.
This reel will be perfect.
Break down the door.
We must have that vitalizer! They'll be in here in a second, [GUNSHOTS.]
and they'll get the vitalizer! That's what I want them to do.
They'll be in for a "reel" surprise.
Give me the vitalizer, now! Help! Help me, someone! Help! I can't turn my back on him for a second.
You can't turn your back on these monsters, either! Is there gonna be an intermission soon? Get that vitalizer! Stay away, you, you-- Got it, Boss! Oh, with this vitalizer and film, Earth will soon be overrun with monsters! Krang, open the portal! [DONATELLO.]
Come on.
We've gotta stop those monsters! There's too many of them.
But they don't like light Come on! Help me aim these searchlights at the monsters.
[MONSTERS GROANING.]
[DONATELLO.]
It's working.
The light is weakening them! [GROWLING, GROANING.]
A battle awaits.
Farewell! Lighten up, Rondude.
One day I'll bet you'll be as brave as that movie Rondo.
[TURTLES.]
Nah.
But Shredder has the vitalizer and the film.
He and Krang can make all the monsters they want.
Uh, don't bet on it.
[KRANG.]
For once, you have done well.
I have, haven't I? The vitalizer poured onto this film will create an army of monsters that no one can stop! Ooh! Ooh! Let me pour it, Boss.
No! I wanna! Stop, you numskulls! [BEBOP.]
Whoa! Now see what you've done! Oh, look.
It's Cheezy and Sleazy.
Ow! [KRANG.]
Shredder, you idiot! [ROCKSTEADY.]
Those Turtles switched the films! [KRANG.]
Stop them! [VILLAINS GRUNTING, GROANING.]
