[Donnie] Previously on

Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles...

My brothers don't understand me at all.

They don't like robotics or anime or monster movies.

So when we get attacked by a mutant snapping turtle,

somehow it's my thing.

I mean, it is kind of cool,

but I've got stuff to do!

Me and Irma are entering Metalhead

into a robotics competition with Wingnut,

who just got kidnapped.

My brothers are who knows where, and now I'm sneaking

into a creepy abandoned factory where I find...

Guess what? Mutant monsters!

Could this day get any worse? Probably!

[static hissing]

Ugh! Hey... new friends.

It's nice to meet you?

I'm sure attacking Ray Fillet and kidnapping Wingnut

was just some kind of wacky misunderstanding.

[growls] We will take her blood.

-[Wingnut] What?! -It's okay! Don't panic!

Don't panic?! They're horrible monsters!

Nope. [laughs nervously] Not monsters.

They are friendly mutants. They're just like us.

Just like us? We are cute and adorable.

Um, me especially?

They want to take my blood!

Maybe they just meant, like,

they were blood relatives, you know?

And they're going to take you for a mutants' weekend or...

Yeah, okay, I got nothing. This, this is bad.

Get me out of here, Donnie!

[grunts]

[grunting]

-[whimpers] -[hissing]

[Donnie grunting]

[growling]

Stop!

They are traitors!

The purple one is the smart one.

-[Donnie] What? -The box said so.

And he can help us.

-[hisses] -[grunts]

Yeah! Sure! I love to help people.

Just tell me how!

Blood.

[growls]

[grunts]

[Donnie screams]

-Uh! -Ew.

Are you chewing me?

[alarm beeping rapidly]

Ugh! Ew!

-[Wingnut] It's wet. -[heavy footsteps stomping]

-[snarling] -[hissing]

Donnie, run! Go, get help! I'll be fine!

-[Wingnut whimpers] -Okay. I'll be back, I promise!

Wait, you agreed to that really quickly.

Shouldn't you try and free me again?!

[Wingnut whimpers]

[roaring]

[grunts]

-No! -[grunts]

[metal clanks]

Did I mention that I have low blood sugar?

I promise, you are not gonna want any of that.

Find him.

[hisses]

[howling]

[howling echoes]

-[siren blaring in distance] -[thunder rumbling]

[Raph] Where's the menu?

No menu. There's only two options here.

You either get pizza

-or you don't. -What? How does that work?

[Mikey] It's whatever they feel like making that day.

It changes all the time.

[Raph] Whoa, hold up. What if it doesn't

have the toppings I want?

Or what if it's got toppings

that I don't want on it?

You could just take them off?

Are you insane?

Hmph.

The flavors seep into the cheese.

You can't mess around with that.

[Mikey] Should we get a slice for Donnie?

[Raph] Why? So he can yell at us some more?

What's his problem, anyway?

I don't know.

Maybe he's just stressed out about his...

Uh, what was his thing again, with the robot?

I honestly can't remember.

Huh. Maybe he's right.

Maybe we don't care about the stuff that's important to him.

Okay, I agreed to give you Turtles free pizza

'cause of what you did, saving the city and all that.

-But this is too much. -Wait, what?

One of you comes in here every day,

freaking everyone out,

and don't get me started about what you did

at the dumpsters out back. I'm done!

-Lousy, freeloading tortoises. -Uh, sir?

We can still get some slices, right? Sir?

Have any of you ever been here before?

-Nah. -Never.

Huh. That's so weird.

[thunder crashing]

* ominous music playing *

[camera shutter clicks]

Please help. Going to die.

Agh!

-[groans in frustration] -[buzzes]

Ugh!

Get more cell towers, Staten Island.

Great. I'm gonna be eaten and late.

Irma's gonna be so mad.

[groans]

Yeah, you get used to it.

They do this all the time.

* suspenseful music playing *

[roaring]

[door opens]

[grunting]

Oh, come on!

-Ah! -[clatters]

* tense musical stinger *

-[powering on] -* old-time music playing *

It's like this place is trying to be creepy.

There's gotta be an exit around here.

Nope, not doing it.

This is clearly a horror movie trope

and I'm gonna go in there

and there's gonna be something horrible waiting for me

with probably an axe or a chainsaw.

-[thunder crashing] -[gasps]

-[powering down] -* music stops *

And now the power is out.

Great.

[whooshing]

Don't be a chainsaw maniac, don't be a chainsaw maniac.

* ominous music playing *

* tense musical stinger *

What the heck?

I think I would have preferred the chainsaw guy.

-[steam hisses] -[yelps]

[screams]

[whimpers]

* discordant music box playing *

* tense musical stinger *

That's super weird.

No!

[Rahzar] Hello, my brother.

Stay away! Stay away!

You're probably very confused right now.

I am so confused.

No, for real, why would he think we've been here before?

It doesn't make any sense.

You know, what doesn't make sense

is this guy refusing to serve us.

Okay, he's a hater.

I mean, a mutant hater.

Maybe Mondo Gecko came here? That dude can eat.

-[roars] -He said it was a Turtle.

-But that can't be. I mean... -[whimpers]

Donnie wouldn't have come on his own.

Unless... No.

I mean, he was a giant monster and he exploded.

Why is everyone looking at us?

We're famous, man, embrace it.

[screaming]

Ugh. Huh. It's him!

You should not be here! It's not fair!

[car alarm blaring]

We shouldn't be here?!

You for real blew up, man! We saw you!

This is ours!

This is where we get the pizza!

You traitors find your own place!

Traitors?! What are you talking about?

Hey, fine, you can have this place, okay?

-The service wasn't great! -[grunts]

[grunting]

[grunting]

[clanging]

Who are you? Where did you come from?

We know you! We saw what you did!

[grunts]

What did we do?

You betrayed us all!

[clangs]

[grunting]

Yah!

-[beeping] -[grunts]

Wait, are you beeping?

I need... the pizza pie!

I have to take it back! [roars]

-He's gonna-- -Wait!

[Leo] Explode. Again.

Oh, come on!

-It got in my nose! -This isn't fair!

They keep popping before we really get into it.

It's like they're chickening out but, you know, forever.

-[growling] -Guys?

[clangs]

[thunder crashing]

I am having the weirdest case of déjà vu right now.

Our name is Rahzar.

Or, if you have a shell covered with spikes,

then your name is Tokka.

None of the others seem smart enough to find this place,

especially the worm.

You are a mutant

created in this lab by the Maker

and destined to expire here as well.

There have been many of us,

going back years as far as we can tell.

I was not the first Rahzar to record this message,

nor will I be the last.

With every new one of us, we learn more.

We learn faster.

I will teach you what was taught to me.

How to help us escape the tubes,

how to use the watches.

And I will teach you of the traitorous Mutanimals.

Find these other mutants,

especially the Turtle known as "Donatello,"

and perhaps we can break this torturous cycle

the Maker has condemned us to

and finally be free.

All we require is the blood of a stable mutant.

What happened?

-Why did it-- -[growls]

You may not touch the box!

-[grunts] -[whimpers]

[grunts]

Stop! You don't have to do this!

-I saw you on the video! -That was not me!

-That was Rahzar! -Then who are you?

Rahzar!

-[whimpers, grunts] -[growls]

[grunting]

[rapid dinging]

[Donnie yelling]

Look! The video said you needed help.

You needed my help.

Rahzar said you could free us.

You were the smart one.

What? Why is it always, "Oh, Donnie's the smart one?"

Why isn't it ever I'm the cool one,

or I'm the one with the great music taste,

or I'm the one who has the coolest--

The box said it was the glasses.

Lots of people have glasses.

That's not just--

Oh!

I get it, you're learning from the video screen.

What else did the box tell you?

That you and your brothers are evil

and would let us rot,

and that we must make you help us!

Oh. Maybe we should just focus on me being smart?

[yelps]

[growling]

[whimpers, growls]

Down, boy!

[roars]

[growls]

[howling]

[thunder crashing]

[hisses]

Sit! Stay! It's just the zoomies!

Okay, think, think, Donnie, think.

What would-- What would smart Donnie do?

[roaring]

[chittering]

[hissing]

[squeaking]

[thunder crashing]

[banging]

* dramatic music playing *

Wait, wait! Just wait! We can talk about--

[screaming]

* tense music playing *

-[screeching] -[grunts]

-[clanks] -[Mikey] Ouch!

This place is giving me the creeps, I...

I think we might have crossed over into Philly or something.

Do you even know where Philly is?

Yeah, well, I heard time and space

work differently on Staten Island.

If Donnie was here, he'd back me up on this.

-Shh! -[thunder rumbling]

[low growling]

He's going inside.

That's probably where his evil lair is.

[Raph muffled] If you don't move your hand,

I'm going to bite it off.

I still don't know how these guys keep showing up

after they've already exploded.

Let's get some answers.

[babbles mockingly]

Yeah, yeah, okay. Just go, man.

[gasps] Ow!

* eerie music playing *

Oh man, Donnie would love this place!

Look, there's science stuff

and big tanks with whatever this is.

There's also a big giant monster in here.

-Think he'd like that? -Probably,

You know, depending on the monster, I guess.

Like, is it more Dracula or more Frankenstein?

Or maybe some anime monster. Those things are weird.

[whispering] What is wrong with you two?

This is clearly the signal for stealth mode!

We've been over this so many times!

Donnie would have known that!

-Donnie's not here, man! -[growling]

What the heck was that?

Honestly, I don't feel any real strong need

to find out more about this place, the giant turtle,

or whatever that slimy thing was...

Sometimes you gotta know when to walk away.

That's wisdom.

Let's follow it!

For real? What is-what is wrong with you?

-[gasps] -[yelps] Raph!

You! Stupid exploding turtle!

* up-tempo rock music plays *

You think I'm afraid of you?!

I'm not afraid of nothing--

-[hisses] -[screams]

Raph! Hang on!

Whoa! [screaming]

What are these things?

[grunts]

[growls]

[chuckles nervously]

Ah!

-[yelps] -[growls]

You are not the smart one.

That hurts.

Like, emotionally.

[growls] But your blood can be useful.

You will be taken to the Maker.

Maker? Someone made you guys?

No! The box says the Maker won't help us!

Are you guys being confusing on purpose?!

What Maker? What box?

[grunts]

-[snarls] -[screams]

-[whimpers] -Mikey!

Guys! This way!

Nope. Never mind, my bad.

Don't mind us. We were just leaving.

[screams]

[snoring]

Wingnut! [groans]

Donnie! Thank goodness you're here!

It's been really boring.

I mean, terrifying, of course,

but the monster mutant things all left.

There's no one to talk to, not to mention I really need

to use the little girls' room, if you know what I mean.

Oh! Or, you could be busy right now.

I can wait, it's okay.

Thanks for understanding.

-[sighs] -Use her blood.

-Fix us! -Fix you?

I don't understand!

Your friend...

-she is a stable mutant. -[whimpers]

What? That is so sweet! Thank you.

A lot of people tell me I can be quite unhinged at times,

-but I think it's just like-- -He means you don't explode

-into a bunch of ooze. -Oh.

You are smart, smart like the Maker.

Take her blood. Fix us.

Just because I wear glasses doesn't mean I know how to do

whatever sciency-adjacent thing you can think of!

Donnie, perhaps we shouldn't yell at the werewolf

-who wants my blood? -[roars]

And besides, this is advanced biology and genetics.

-I'm more of a robotics guy! -[growling]

He's like the Maker.

He will not help us.

We must make him help us.

Guys! What are you guys doing here?

What are we doing here? What are you doing here?

-I'm here too! Hi! -[growling]

[grunting] Hey!

Let us go!

I'm gonna kick your butts!

Ya know, eventually.

You will help us, or your brothers will suffer.

I told you, or him, I actually have no idea.

There's a lot of you and it's really confusing.

But I have no idea how to help you!

So torture my brothers all you want,

it's not going to change anything!

-Donnie! -Hey, thanks a lot, bro!

Yeah, maybe give it a try before you suggest me being in pain.

They call you heroes

for fighting Superfly.

But Superfly would have set us free.

Superfly? You knew him?

Only his legend.

Only that you and the Mutanimals betrayed him.

You destroyed him and any hope for us to live.

Okay, look, one, I still have no idea what you're talking about,

and two, that was a complicated situation. [screams]

-[beeping] -[gasps]

[thunder crashing]

-[beeping continues] -No! No, no, no!

He's coming!

-[yelps] -[beeping rapidly]

-[screams] -[beeping stops]

Ugh! I guess maybe they do blow up!

-Dang, that's bad. -See, I told you, chickens!

-Every single one of 'em. -They are kinda cute though!

"He's coming." Who? Who's coming?

Who cares? Donnie, get us out of here!

[thunder crashing]

* ominous music playing *

[growling]

* music stops *

What are you mediocre, second-rate mutants

doing in my lab? [slurps]

* tense musical stinger *

Wait. Sorry.

Am I supposed to know who you are?
