ladies and gentlemen,

Michelangelo the magnificent!

Thank you, Caitlin.

Whoopie. Hooray.

I will now perform

my famous rabbit-out-of-a-hat trick.

[ALL LAUGHING]

Boy.

As you can see, the hat is empty.

Like your head.

Hee hee. Ha ha.

Oh, not true. That head's got some brains,

only they're not Michelangelo's.

Come on, dudes.

I'm trying to perform some serious magic here.

Abracadabra!

Rabbit, appear.

Whoa! Well, it was here a minute ago.

Here it is, Michelangelo.

Right. Well, that was the famous

rabbit-off-of-my-head trick.

Whoa, dudes, I've got more tricks.

We've seen enough.

Holy smoke! The great boldini show

at the museum is starting soon.

We gotta get going.

We wouldn't miss it, kids.

This boldini is supposed to be a really good magician.

Right. I bet I could do his tricks.

Ha ha. Sure you could.

And not only is tonight the unveiling

of the fabulous tortellini emerald,

but also our city's first look

at an incredible magician,

the great boldini.

I have here the curator of the city museum,

Dr. fishfine.

Tell us about the fabulous

tortellini emerald, doctor.

Uh, yes. Well, it's, uh...Uh, green.

It's, uh, extremely valuable.

That's all?

Uh, well, actually,

my area of expertise is paleontology, miss o'Neil.

I know nothing about gems.

Stay tuned for the great boldini.

Hi, turtles.

How you doin'? ALL: Hey, April!

Hi, Zach. Hey, who's your friend?

This is Caitlin. She wants to be a turtle like me.

Uh-uh. I want to be a turtle like you, miss o'Neil.

Ha ha. Well, I'm not exactly a turtle, Caitlin.

See, April's more of an associate turtle.

If she passes the test,

she gets promoted to second assistant turtle,

ahead of Michelangelo.

Mondo amusing, dude.

ANNOUNCER: And now, ladies and gentlemen,

the great boldini!

[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]

Thank you, thank you.

And now, the great boldini

will perform his greatest illusion.

The museum has a state-of-the-art laser alarm system.

Armed guards are posted at every exit.

And surveillance monitors

cover every corner of the gem room.

Despite this high security,

the great boldini will make

the tortellini emerald vanish

before our very eyes.

[CROWD GASPS]

[CHEERING]

That emerald belonged to my grandfather,

Tony the tickler turtelli.

Then how come they got it, boss?

Because the police caught him coming out of the museum with it.

But it's going to be back in the family again.

Get the van ready, Rodney.

I'm going to the museum.

And now, ladies and gentlemen,

the vanishing emerald.

[GASPING]

And now...Disappear!

Ooh!

The vanishing emerald.

This is April o'Neil,

channel 6 news,

live from the city museum. That concludes the show.

Somebody hit me and tied me up!

I didn't finish my trick!

The tortellini emerald has been...Stolen!

April was wrong. The show isn't over,

it's just beginning.

Now, now. There's no cause for alarm, folks.

But someone here is a dirty rotten thief,

and we're going to search every one of you until we find him.

If they search us, dudes,

they'll find something green,

but it won't be the emerald!

We'll have to find a way out of here

before that happens.

You kids go wait with April in the control room.

Aw, we want to stay with you!

Yeah. We can keep an eye out for suspicious people.

I'm afraid not, kids.

After the police get through here,

April will take you home.

Zach, look.

There goes somebody suspicious.

In my magic book,

there's a trick where you can tie yourself up

and you wind up looking just like boldini did.

Let's follow him.

I don't know. Leonardo said...

What if he's the thief and we help catch him?

We'll be heroes!

He went into that storage room.

Let's go.

He's gone!

Now, that's a magic trick.

Wait a minute.

This grate is loose.

Boldini must have gone in here.

Come on, Caitlin.

I bet he went this way.

Wow! What a big basement.

I wonder where boldini went.

Now, where is it?

[SQUEAK] Uh...

Ah! I have the emerald!

Thank you very much, cousin boldini.

My pleasure, cousin don turtelli.

Don turtelli? The turtles told me about him.

He's a big crook.

O'Flaherty, have half your men secure the perimeter.

Right-o, lieutenant fronski.

I'll put them around the museum, too.

The rest come with me.

We gotta warn the turtles.

This little elevator you installed

under the display case worked good.

Yeah. One of my construction companies did it,

and they dug this escape route through the sewers.

I'm getting out of here.

But you did good, boldini.

Heh heh heh heh.

Tying yourself up really fooled them.

We've got no time to warn the turtles.

He's getting away.

What?

Hey!

Come back with my emerald.

Lieutenant, these men are with me.

You don't need to search them.

Miss o'Neil, we have to search everybody, even you.

Faith and I'm sorry, miss o'Neil.

Is this gonna be a strip search?

I hope not.

This is a family show.

Uh-oh.

Dead end!

Give me that emerald,

you little brats.

Hey, what the...

All right. No more playing hide-and-seek.

Right. Now we play cut-and-run.

The ninja turtles! They must have stolen the emerald!

Arrest them!

Do you dudes realize what this is going to do to our reps?

We can't allow ourselves to get arrested.

You're right.

[THINKING] I look terrible in stripes.

Give me that!

Sure. Catch.

No! Don't throw it!

Run, Zach.

Ouch!

I got you.

Let go of me, you creep.

Hey, kid. Let's make a trade.

You give me the tortellini emerald,

I give you back your girlfriend.

Yecch. She's not my girlfriend.

I ain't got time to discuss your relationships, kid.

Give me that emerald

or she'll suffer the consequences.

Ha ha ha!

Take their weapons and put the cuffs on 'em.

Oh, no. They're arresting the turtles.

You'll come along quietly, my green lads.

What's the matter, dude,

haven't you ever seen 4-foot-tall turtles before?

Faith and begorrah!

The wee ones!

The little people!

Hey. Hey, Sean,

I know we're short, but not that short.

You've got the wrong people here, lieutenant.

They don't need any emerald.

They've got pots o' gold.

What are you talking about o'Flaherty?

They're leprechauns.

You are nuts!

Turtles, now!

Turtle power!

Come back!

Stop! I didn't get my wish!

In an amazing turn of events, police have arrested

the teenage mutant ninja turtles for the theft

of the the tortellini emerald.

So long, April.

Mind if we take your van?

Stop, turtles!

Halt, leprechauns.

Uh, correction.

The teenage mutant ninja turtles

have escaped police custody.

[TIRES SCREECH]

Stop! You're under arrest!

Car 3-9 reporting 4 escaped...Uh... Little green men.

Leprechauns. Now, after them.

All right, kid.

This is your last chance.

Come out now or the girl gets it.

Promise you'll let us go?

Don't do it, Zach!

Where do you want it, blondie?

Under your arm? The soles of your feet?

Oh, I can't watch.

All right, you rats.

Rats?

Did someone call?

Greetings, humans.

I am the rat king.

What's the meaning of this?

The rat king?

And which one of these

is your rat queen, bandage face?

Ha ha ha!

How dare you mock my royal majesty?

[SQUEAKING]

All right, all right,

call off the dogs-- uh, rats.

What do you want?

You have built a tunnel in my royal domain

without my permission.

Your domain is in the sewer?

Because you have trespassed,

you must pay a tax,

and I think that emerald will do very nicely.

Are you kidding? That's my emerald.

I'll never give it to you.

I'd like-a to point out the tortellini emerald

now belongs to the two little kids,

and you've just-a let 'em escape!

The police are catching up!

If we can make it to our sewer entrance, we'll be ok.

I never thought this would happen.

We're fugitives from justice.

Turtles on the lam,

running from the cops,

hunted night and day.

[BEEP]

Donatello here.

Are you guys all right?

We will be if Michelangelo stops pretending

he's in a gangster movie.

I've been looking for Zach and Caitlin.

Have you seen 'em?

We sent them to stay with you.

Then the little dudes must still be inside the museum.

No sign of those brats anywhere.

I'll find them for you, for a price.

Sure, anything. Just get that emerald.

Go, my loyal subjects.

Find those children,

and keep everyone else out of the museum.

[SQUEAKING]

Where are they going?

To the museum's computer room

to make sure we're not disturbed.

[ALARM SOUNDS]

Ho ooh, ooh, ooh!

Rats!

After the rat attack,

something or someone

has reprogrammed the museum's security computers,

closing all doors and windows.

The fugitive teenage mutant ninja turtles are being blamed.

This is April o'Neil for channel 6 news.

What's going on over there?

You guys are on the 10-most-wanted list.

The security system went haywire, and--

DONATELLO: Hey, fellas, check this out.

Turtelli museum remodeling.

Don turtelli.

Right. He must be behind this gem theft.

And chances are he's still in the museum...

With the kids!

CAITLIN: Where are we going?

The front door's just ahead.

MAN: This way.

They're coming!

Ohh, it's locked. Now what?

We gotta hide this emerald...But where?

The last place they'd ever look for it.

Come on.

APRIL: It gets worse, guys.

There's no way into the museum.

And there seems to be an invasion of rats!

Rats?

That means that Zach and Caitlin

are in there with don turtelli

and the rat king!

And we can't get to them!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

You brats are gonna tell me

where you stashed that emerald

or you'll be very sorry.

Ha ha ha!

I--I already am!

Ha ha ha ha!

Oh, sorry! Ha ha ha!

Oh, ha ha ha ha!

MICHELANGELO: I'm worried about those little dudes.

How are we gonna get in?

Don turtelli has to have some way

of getting the tortellini emerald

out of the museum,

and it wouldn't be by the door.

Aha!

He got in through the sewer.

Then he could already be gone!

Uh-uh. He wouldn't leave this truck here.

Let's go, fellas.

O'FLAHERTY: Hold it right there,

you wretched blarney devils.

Wretched...What?

I knew you'd return to the scene of the crime.

You're under arrest, the lot of ya.

Miss o'Neil, I can only hope

you're here against your will.

You're too pretty a lass

to be mixed up with the likes of these.

Sergeant, you've got to believe me.

These turtles did not steal the tortellini emerald.

If you let 'em go, they'll capture the ones who did!

Sergeant, give us an hour.

If we can't catch those crooks, we'll turn ourselves in.

If lieutenant fronski knew I

let ya get away again, he'd...

You've got one hour!

Thanks, sergeant.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Uh, oh, please! Oh, ha ha ha ha ha!

No--no more!

Then tell us where you hid the tortellini emerald.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Never!

I can't stand to watch.

I'm going to pick up some artsy stuff

to decorate my kingdom.

So, what do you think of this one?

[SLOW SQUEAKS]

What about this one?

[FAST SQUEAKS]

Ha ha ha! I thought so.

The rat king!

I thought I smelled a rat.

Ugh! For that you will suffer.

[COUGH COUGH] [COUGH COUGH]

Smoke bomb!

RAPHAEL: I hate it when he does that.

[COUGH] Ahh, he's gone.

[LAUGHTER]

That's the kids!

Hmm. Climate control computer.

Yes, my pets,

give them some weather to talk about.

DONATELLO: Their voices came from this direction.

ALL: Aah!

Whoa!

Uhh! This is outdoor weather, dudes.

Somebody has reprogrammed

the museum's climate controls!

Ha ha ha!

Had enough?

Ha ha! Oh, all right, I'll te--I'll tell.

Where is it?

The tortellini emerald, back in the family again.

Aah! Aah!

Come on, Caitlin! Run!

Come back here, you!

Never mind them. We've got the emerald.

Let's get out of here.

LEONARDO: If we don't get out of this snow,

we're gonna freeze our shells off!

Dudes, if we have to go,

let's at least do it by a picture of Malibu.

Michelangelo! Leonardo!

Hey, that sounded like Zach's voice.

It came from up ahead.

Help! Help!

Caitlin! Zach!

You're all right now.

But don turtelli

and boldini are getting away with the emerald!

MICHELANGELO: The great boldini?

I knew that dude was a crook.

Why?

'Cause he wasn't that great a magician.

We've gotta turn off this weather!

But how?

My school toured this museum.

I know where the computer room is!

I'll show you the secret way down to the basement!

Donatello, you take Caitlin and fix the computer.

We'll catch those crooks.

Where the heck is that opening?

You're the one who put it in the floor-a.

Hey, I wasn't expecting it to snow.

Your weather report just got worse.

Right. Now it's snow with a chance of turtles.

The turtles!

Now what?

Come on, turtles!

Oomph!

Try and get me, shells for brains.

Yeah, come on!

This means war!

Banzai!

Ah, what a mess.

We'll never get this climate control computer working.

Maybe we can link up the climate controls

to one of these other computers.

Hey, it might work.

Say, you're pretty good.

If you're gonna say, "for a girl,"

forget it.

Cowabu-a-a-a-a-unga!

Didn't you, like, ask those guys

to fix the weather?

This must be boldini's magic stuff.

Michelangelo!

Whoa. Maybe we can use these.

There's the opening.

Let's go.

Whoa!

Aah!

Sorry! What's going on?

There. That should do it.

Ok. I've got the climate circuit set.

Let's try it.

Caitlin and Donatello must have fixed the computer.

But don turtelli and boldini are getting away.

Not if I can help it.

Stop!

Get out of the way, kid, or--

jewel, return to your rightful place.

[GASPS] Hey, that's-a my trick.

No way.

Michelangelo the magnificent will stop you

with these magical ropes of steel.

My pigeons.

Shoo! G-get out a here.

Magical ropes of steel?

Oh, maybe I put on the wrong hat.

But this is the right rope.

Let me go!

I want to call my lawyer.

Hey guys, we got the museum doors open.

So we better leave and avoid the crowds.

What in the devil's goin' on?

The teenage mutant ninja turtles

just caught your jewel thief, sergeant.

FRONSKI: O'Flaherty, are you down there?

Come on, turtles, time for us to go.

Cover for us, April.

Don't I always?

O'Flaherty?

And I couldn't have captured these crooks

without the help of...

The teenage mutant ninja leprechauns.

Begorrah!

That's us, me boys.

[IRISH MUSIC PLAYS]

Hoo hoo hoo!

[LAUGHTER]
