This news footage you got is great, April.

Yes. It is most advantageous

to study one's opponent.

Anything I can do to help, guys.

Where's Donatello? He should be watching this.

[Michelangelo] Yo, Mr. Wizard,

don't you want to scope out the latest stuff on Shred-head's plans?

[crackling]

Oh, I might as well.

I don't think I'll ever get this dimensional portal repaired.

[both groan]

You know, if Rocksteady and Bebop had more than

a single brain cell between them, they could be pretty dangerous.

Yeah, sometimes I wonder why Shredder and Krang

even keep 'em around.

[Shredder] You two losers have bungled yet another operation.

You were supposed to bring back an advanced wave modulator.

Instead, you come back empty-handed.

Well, you know what they say--

lose a few... uh, lose a few.

[Shredder] You two lose them all!

Oh, gee, boss, give us a break.

Them turtles was all over us, like green bubble gum.

All right, that's it!

I've had it up to my helmet with both of you!

Uh, boss, are you trying to tell us something?

Yes. You're fired!

Now, get out of my sight!

Okay, what if we-- Out, out, out!

[both exclaiming]

I'll find someone more competent to do our dirty work.

Not that I'm defending

those two yo-yos,

but we're not exactly overburdened

with good help here.

All we've got are your foot-soldier robots,

and they're about as smart as a blow dryer. [Shredder] You're right.

Let's try to use your new experimental brain-wave enhancer

to increase their robotic intelligence.

Do you think it'll work? Miracles, I don't do.

Boy, this is almost as exciting as reruns of the weather report.

“Absolutemento.”

What say we check out the pizza situation?

Wait a minute.

Come on, Leonardo, look.

[April] What was that?

Well, it looked like an advanced wave modulator I've read about.

And if Krang gets his tentacles on that,

we can kiss this planet goodbye.

That grate leads to the sewer line.

Come on. We'd better find it before they come back for it.

And what will you do, April?

I have to get back to work. There's a staff meeting this afternoon.

When left to his own devices,

the wise man entertains himself as best he can.

You, come here.

What's its code designation?

Alpha-1. Have a seat, Alpha-1.

You're about to make robot history.

Assuming this thing doesn't make fried noodles out of your circuitry.

Gee, the boss fired us.

I feel like such a failure.

Oh, not me. I feel like

I'm at a career crossroads.

I'm gonna play a game of Mr. Quest

while I decide what to do with my life.

Hey, Krang doesn't like us to play with that.

He said the power line

can cause a short-circuit.

Who cares? I'm a free agent now.

Let 'er rip, Krang.

I just know I'm going to regret this.

[electricity crackling]

I'm getting a power fluctuation!

We got to stop it before...

[both yelling]

They sure made these games realistic.

[coughing]

[deep male voice] The discomfort is caused by temporary lung irritation.

You will both be all right.

Who... Who said that?

The brain enhancer. It must've overloaded!

[Alpha-1] My ratiocinative abilities

have been increased to the 97th power.

My intellectual capacity is virtually without limit.

What'd he say? He said he's smart.

I have the combined brain capacity

of 4,000 sentient species.

It gives me a headache

just thinking down to your level.

Excellent! With a super-genius like this on our side,

we will have no trouble defeating the Turtles.

What do you mean “we,” tin-head?

I beg your pardon. You two are obviously

my intellectual inferiors.

Why should I help you?

Because we want to conquer Earth.

Sounds like a good idea. I'll do it...

without you.

Hold it, big-brain!

No foot soldier smarts off to me and gets away with it.

My reflexes have been augmented along with my intellect.

[crash] [groaning]

You cannot stop me.

[grunting, groaning]

I've traced the source of the power surge.

It came from Rocksteady and Bebop's room.

I'm going to dip those two in mutagen

and turn them into wombats!

[Leonardo] Okay, so we're under the electronics plant that Shredder's goons robbed,

but I don't see the watchamacallit.

Never fear. If we're within a hundred feet of the wave modulator,

this tracking device will find it.

We just got to find it. It can't be lost.

Hey, you seem to have a personal interest

in this wave modulator, Michelangelo.

For sure, dude. I'll bet you can tune up

some really primo surfing curls with it.

Was it something I said?

Find Alpha-1 and bring him to me.

Not me, you metal moron.

Krang, the foot soldiers are revolting! You're telling me?

Well, here's another fine mess you've gotten us into!

Put them in one of the escape pods

and eject them from the Technodrome.

Stop! Why are you doing this?

I intend to banish

all organic life-forms on Earth to Dimension X.

We robots will rule the world.

Wait, wait. We can negotiate. We'll give you New Jersey.

There can be no negotiation.

Today the Technodrome,

tomorrow the world.

[Bebop, Rocksteady exclaiming]

Hey, what's going on here?

Launch them into Dimension X.

Wait, uh, how's about we work for you guys?

Yeah. We'll be real professionals.

Uh-huh. We won't foul up

like when we was sent to get the wave modulator.

An advanced wave modulator? Do you know where it is?

Well, uh, yeah. Uh, sure.

It's on Earth. We can lead youse right to it.

A wave modulator would come in very handy

in my conquest of Earth.

Very well. You will come with us to Earth.

[both sighing]

Here it is.

[shouting]

These guys again? This is getting real old.

Attack.

Okay, but remember, turtles fight with honor!

Back off, bolt-breath!

[shouting, groans]

Whoa! What a ride!

Whoa-oa!

Hah! Whoa-oa! [metal creaking]

Oof! This wasn't in the script.

Give me the modulator,

you disgusting organism.

Fire, now.

Whoa! [Bebop] How'd you do that?

I simply calculated the rebound trajectory of the laser beam.

Foot soldiers, retreat.

[both groan] Hey, what's the big idea?

[Alpha-1] Sorry, no mutants allowed.

Well, of all the nerve.

Now we're stranded here.

That's not our only problem.

Uh, hi, guys.

All right, you two, who was that foot soldier?

He seemed like a real take-charge dude, for a robot.

His name's Alpha-1, and he's taken over the Technodrome,

and he got rid of Krang and Shredder right after Shredder got rid of us.

That doesn't sound good. I kind of like the part

about getting rid of Krang and Shredder, though.

If he's as smart as he seems to be,

there's no limit to what he could do with that wave modulator.

Yeah, and he's probably not planning to build

a really high-tech pizza maker with it either.

[Shredder] It's no use.

They deactivated the power cells. We're running on empty.

Swell. So we wind up spending eternity

cooped up in this teeny life pod.

Why don't you jettison your android body? That would give us more room.

Why don't you jettison your head?

It's the most useless object in here!

Hey, this wasn't in the tour package.

Silence, pitiful life-forms. Send them through the portal.

[people exclaiming]

Wow, this'll sure impress the folks back in Lone Bend.

Here I shall build my dimensional displacement device

and use it to send all organic life

in this city to Dimension X.

[Bebop] Don't turn us over to the cops, guys.

Please? Let us come with you. We can help.

Our only chance of getting our old room back

is if we help put the lid on Alpha-1.

What do you think, guys? Well, personally, I trust them

about as far as I can shot-put a planet.

Yeah, but they know more about the foot soldiers than we do.

I hate to say it, dudes, but they might come in handy, you know?

Leonardo here. What's up, April?

Just thought you guys would like to know

that the Eidelman building has been taken over by foot soldiers.

I'm getting ready to head over there with a remote crew right now.

Thanks, April. Sounds like our boy. Let's go!

Let's go. Okay, no funny business, you promise?

[together] We promise.

Good, 'cause you're staying here.

the displacement device is ready.

Now to test it.

Vernon, you and April have a story to cover. Go, go, go, go, go.

Yes, sir. Just watch me disappear. [laser blasting]

[gasping]

[shouting] Vernon!

Holy mackerel! They disappeared!

I've got to find the Turtles. Maybe they know what's causing this.

It works perfectly.

Now to start teleporting

all organic life to Dimension X.

[all clamoring]

What's going on?

Whoa. Looks like a radical solution to overpopulation to me.

They're being teleported out of this dimension!

And I think I know who's responsible. Come on!

Hey, Turtles, wait for us!

You guys just won't take “no” for an answer.

Look, up there.

The Turtles. I must dispose of them quickly.

[Michelangelo] Uh-oh. Don't look now, guys,

but maybe we ought to change our name

to the Teenage Mutant Sitting Ducks!

Quick, get inside!

I thought I saw the Turtles here,

but they're gone! [screams]

There you are.

What are they doing here? It's a long story.

Burne, Vernon and Irma just got hit by some kind of ray. They disappeared!

They probably was sent to Dimension X.

That Alpha-1 wants to send everybody there.

Yeah, well, it looks like he's off

to a great start. [people screaming]

Any way you can reverse that effect

with your portal back in the sewer, Donatello?

Oh, give me a break. I can't even send something into the next room with that.

Let's get to the roof and reverse that machine ourselves.

What a surprise. They shut down the elevators.

We'll have to take the stairs.

This'll make a great story!

Assuming there's anybody left around to see it.

We've got to get back to Earth.

All my favorite prime-time soaps are on tonight.

You're a technical kind of guy.

Push a button or something.

Well, all right.

[beeping]

Get me down!

Uh, right away, sir.

[groans] Sorry about that, Chief.

Here's the latest weather report,

in case you're interested. What now?

We're headed straight for a plasma storm!

What a revolting development this is.

Actually, it's good news.

Oh, really? And how do you figure that?

There's a 1-in-a-million chance

that the storm will recharge the power cells.

If so, we'll be able to return to the Technodrome!

Of course, there's a far greater chance

that we'll simply deep-fry to a cinder.

I hope you go first so I can watch.

[gasping] How many... more floors...

we got to go?

Oh, about 20. [gasping]

Let 'em just take over the world.

It's not worth it. Hey, look on the bright side.

At least we haven't run into any foot soldiers.

I hate it when that happens.

Doesn't anybody have a plan?

Uh, we'll get back to you.

I never thought I'd say this, but I owe you one, Rocksteady.

How about you leave us untied, and we'll call it even.

We may need their help against all those foot soldiers.

Hang on. It's going to be a bumpy ride.

[both screaming]

[shouting]

Our power cells are charged to full capacity!

So are the fillings in my teeth.

[Krang] Next stop-- the Technodrome.

[all] Turtle power!

Rocksteady, Bebop, stop Alpha-1!

We give up. Ditto.

Hey, zoo-face, I thought you were on our side.

We was... once.

Yeah, but then he convinced us to join his side.

Prepare yourselves for dimensional displacement.

[gulps] I hear Dimension X

is lovely at this time of year.

When I get my hands on Alpha-1,

I'm going to make a toaster out of him!

Well, well. Our invitation

must've been lost in the mail.

You've deactivated them.

Yes. Now let's get rid

of these unwelcome guests.

All right, everybody out.

[all clamoring] What?

[powers down]

No! It's short-circuiting!

There's no telling what dimension it will send me to!

[screaming]

Next stop, Dimension X for you guys.

Uh-oh. I think I overloaded it.

So, like, what's that mean?

It means... run! [Burne] There you are, April.

Got a spectacular story for you.

Later, Burne! Later!

Yeah. This whole roof's about to go up

in the biggest blast since Michelangelo's last birthday party.

You two? I thought I'd gotten rid

of all the riffraff.

Oh, please, boss, give us our old jobs back.

Yeah. It was us who took care

of Alpha-1 for you.

Them Turtles had nothing to do with it.

I'm probably going to regret this,

but at least I know you two klutzes won't fire us off into space.

Very well, you're re-hired.

[gasps] Gee, thanks, boss.

You won't regret it. [groans]

[laughing] It's so hard to find good help these days.

Boy, if that wasn't weird--

us on the same side with Rocksteady and Bebop.

Yeah, they were nice guys for about, what, 2 seconds?

Well, I'm just glad that bogus robot's gone.

[deep male voice] You are my prisoner, Earthling.

That sounds like Alpha-1!

Don't tell me that creep-azoid's back.

Looks like Donatello's portal open.

[screams]

Oh, hi, guys. I never did get the portal working right.

But with a cable hook-up, it makes a great wide-screen TV.
