===Episode 14: "They Came From Below"===
*(We see the Mutanimals (minus Slash) in a cell inside the dungeon of Queen Antea's palace. Pete is seen clinging on the walls with a frenzied look on his face.)
*Pete: Need...to get..out of here!!!
*(He tries gnawing on the bars, but realizes they're made out of rock. He spits some dust out.)
*Pete: Blech! Bad idea! Terrible idea!
*(Newtralizer has a sad look on his face - it's been rarely seen. Mondo notices this.)
*Mondo: Hey, Newtie, what's wrong?
*(Newtralizer looks at him bitterly.)
*Newtralizer: Nothing. Nothing's wrong. Unless you count the fact that our leader and my only friend on this team is about to get married to a psychotic fire ant queen while we're stuck in here and unable to do anything about it!
*(Newtralizer gets up and throws the chair he was sitting on at the bars. The chair breaks into pieces. Mondo is surprised.)
*Mondo: Woah, calm down, bro!
*(Newtralizer looks at what he has done after calming down.)
*Newtralizer: Oh, who am I kidding? Slash is done for.
*(He sits down on the floor and covers his face. Leatherhead walks over to him.)
*Leatherhead: Newtralizer, it is not your fault we are trapped here. If we are ever going to rescue Slash, we all must figure out a plan to save him.
*(Mondo thinks and sees Short Fuse walking towards them. He gets an idea and walks over to the bars and sticks his arm, waving at Short Fuse.)
*Mondo: (whispering) Hey, buddy! Come over here!
*(Short Fuse notices this and walks over with a frown.)
*Short Fuse: What do you want?
*Mondo: (normally) Listen, dude, you got to let us out of here. We need to save our friend!
*(Short Fuse has a deadpan look on his face.)
*Short Fuse: You must think I'm really stupid, don't you?
*Mondo: More or less.
*Short Fuse: If you think I'm gonna let you shmucks out of this cell, you've got another thing coming!
*(Newtralizer walks over.)
*Newtralizer: Listen, kid. We-
*Short Fuse: My name is Short Fuse! You either say it right or don't say it at all!
*(Newtralizer gets an idea.)
*Newtralizer: (smirking) Oh, sorry Shorty, we didn't know that.
*(Short Fuse looks taken aback for a moment before narrowing his eyes in offense.)
*Short Fuse: (lowly yet venomously) What did you just call me?
*(At this point, Pete, who is seated against the back wall of the cell with Leatherhead, has noticed the conversation between Newtralizer and Short Fuse and has become visibly worried and afraid of the latter's growing anger. He stands up and walks over towards Newtralizer, stopping next to him as they both face Short Fuse from inside their cell)
*Pete: (nervously) Uh, Newtie? I think you should lay off the name calling with this guy, he doesn't seem to be liking it.
*Newtralizer: Will you relax, Pete? He's handling this just fine, aren't you, Tiny?
*(Short Fuse's temper is starting to broil. He tries to control it.)
*Short Fuse: (teeth clenched) You'd better stop with the insults, pal. Or else!
*Newtralizer: Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that...Small Fry!
*(Short Fuse's body starts trembling as his eyes flare up in broiling hot rage. Malachi is starting to worry and walks over to Newtralizer.)
*Malachi: (whispering loudly) Newtralizer, stop! Please!
*Newtralizer: (to Malachi) Quiet, you! (to Short Fuse) I guess you're not having a good time, are you, Shrink?
*(Short Fuse finally loses it as he lets out a primal roar. The roar is so loud it reaches all the way to Queen Antea's palace, where we see Thoraxus dressing Slash in a ceremonial wedding headdress. Thoraxus hears this.)
*Thoraxus: Hmm?
*(Back in the prison, Short Fuse charges towards the cell at full speed, leaving a trail of fire. Unleashing another primal roar, he starts breaking down the cell door. The Mutanimals stand on different sides of the cell to stand back: Mondo, Newtralizer, and Monkey Brains stand on the right side, while Leatherhead, Pete, and Malachi stand on the left side. Eventually, Short Fuse manages to break down the cell door and run past the Mutanimals into the wall. Short Fuse groans in pain before falling down and being knocked unconsicious. The other Mutanimals look at Newtralizer.)
*Pete: Newtralizer...ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND?!?! YOU ALMOST GOT US ALL KILLED!!!
*(Newtralizer simply walks over to the door.)
*Pete: What are you doing?
*(Newtralizer opens the door.)
*Newtralizer: One way out, just like you requested. Now, let's go crash that wedding!
*(The Mutanimals unleash their battle cry and run out of the cell. Newtralizer is the last one to exit. He shuts the door and smiles devilishly.)
*Newtralizer: Sweet dreams, Short Fuse.
*(He laughs and runs off to join the Mutanimals in crashing the wedding. Cut to commercial break.)
*(After commercial break, we see a prison guard ant checking out the mess. He sees Short Fuse.)
*Guard: Short Fuse?
*(He unlocks the door and wakes him up.)
*Guard: Short Fuse, what happened?
*(Short Fuse groans in pain and holds his head.)
*Short Fuse: I have no idea. The prisoners were mocking me and next thing I knew, I was out cold and... (He looks around.) Hey, where'd they go?
*Guard: You let them ESCAPE?!?!
*Short Fuse: I didn't mean to, pal! I was just...
*Guard: Just nothing! You let the prisoners escape and who knows what they could be doing now! You are a disgrace to us all, Short Fuse! Why, if you weren't Thoraxus' nephew, I would...
*(While the guard goes on about his rant, Short Fuse begins to twitch as he hears voices from his flashbacks: one with Queen Antea telling him to stay out of her way, one with Thoraxus scolding him over dropping some potions, and finally one with his fellow soldiers mocking him. Short Fuse finally snaps.)
*Guard: ....never to return to the Ant Empire! Do you have anything to say for yourself?
*(Short Fuse grabs him by the neck and throws him in the cell. He shuts the door forcefully and starts singing "I'm Heading Out".)
===Episode 18: "Something's Ratty"===
*(The Mutanimals are seen strapped to tables as Mousepad gets a laser ready. The Rat Prince arrives.)
*Newtralizer: Why are you doing this to us, Darius?!
*Rat Prince: Silence! I am no longer Darius Falco; I am the Rat Prince, and I will not have anyone stand in the way of my plans for rat domination! Apprentice, see to it that these abominations are dealt with.
*Mousepad: Yes, master.
*(Rat Prince leaves as the laser finishes warming up. Mousepad points it at Pete.)
*Slash: Well, at least we're going out together. Right, guys?
*(They all agree. Mousepad presses the button to start the procedure and starts sawing the table that Pete is on, when...)
*Sir Malachi: (frantically trying to think of a way to get Mousepad to stop the laser) WAIT!!!
*(Mousepad stops the laser a centimeter or so away from Pete's ribacge, causing the terrified pigeon to go limp with relief. Mousepad peers over the laser in both confusion and annoyance as she looks at Malachi)
*Mousepad: (slightly annoyed) Yes, what is it?
*(Malachi's eyes dart back and forth as he tries to think of something else to say to distract Mousepad while Monkey Brains uses his greatly-lowered telekinesis to slowly move a cheese knife from a wheel of cheese Mousepad was eating beforehand to the control panel of the laser. He glances back up at the laser and gets an idea)
*Sir Malachi: Before you slice us in half, I need to know something: were you the one who built this laser?
*(Mousepad looks confused at first, but then prideful as she smiles)
*Mousepad: Why yes, this was all me. It wasn't easy getting the parts needed to build this, but like a great artist, I've created a masterpiece with this.
*Sir Malachi: Well, then, I guess the Rat Prince's fortunate to have someone both smart and cute on his side.
*(Malachi suddenly realizes what he just said and immediately shuts his beak as his teammates stare at him in shock, causing Monkey Brains to accidentally release his telekinetic grip on the cheese knife as it begins to fall, though he shakes off his shock quick enough to catch the knife before it hits the ground. Meanwhile, Mousepad looks just as, if not even more shocked than the other Mutanimals as she looks at Malachi)
*Mousepad: (visibly taken aback by Malachi's comment) You... you think I'm... cute?
*
==Season 2==
===Episode 4: "Return of the Punk Frogs"===
*(The Mutanimals are seen floating through the Louisiana Bayou on a wooden raft, having parked their scout ship close by so the Kraang won't detect them from their ship's technology. Slash, Newtralizer, Monkey Brains, and Mondo are standing on the raft while Leatherhead is in the water behind them, clutching the back of the raft and propelling it forward as he swims along. Meanwhile, Pete and Malachi are flying above them, Pete looking uncomfortable at no longer being in the city. Newtralizer sniffs the air and reacts in disgust.)
*Newtralizer: Blech! It's so...humid out here! Why the Kraang would choose here of all the places to make a new outpost is beyond me!
*Monkey Brains: It's humid in every swamp in the world, Newtralizer, so don't act so surprised.
*Leatherhead: I am certainly not complaining. I have never felt more at home here!
*Monkey Brains: Well, this is a natural habitat for your kind, Leatherhead.
*(Slash looks at them irritably.)
*Slash: You can tell him all about Earth's geology after we take down that outpost the Kraang have set up, MB.
*(The Mutanimals then hear a rustling noise. Pete looks worried.)
*Pete: (worried) What's that?
*(Then, they hear a war cry, unlike anything they've ever heard of before.)
*Napoleon (O.S.): BOY-YOOK-KASHA!!!
*(The Mutanimals look up to see Napoleon Bonafrog jumping down from a tree branch armed with a makeshift spear. Cue intro.)
*(After intro, we see the Mutanimals trying to fight Napoleon. Napoleon fires his tongue out at Newtralizer, but he grabs it before it hits him.)
*Newtralizer: HA!
*(But then, the other half of Napoleon's tongue, which isn't in Newtralizer's grab, starts slapping him back and forth. Newtralizer lets go of the tongue. Mondo, who has been watching all of this in the middle, suddenly gets an idea.)
*Mondo: (snapping his fingers) That's it, brah!
*(Mondo whips out his energy blades and attacks Napoleon with them. He gains the upper hand and throws Napoleon onto the ground, having him gripped in a headlock.)
*Napoleon: Alright, already! Get off of me, gosh!
*(Mondo gets up off him.)
*Mondo: Hey, man, you attacked us first! What's your deal, bro?
*(Napoleon gets up and brushes some dirt off him.)
*Napoleon: That was a test, obviously. My name's Napoleon Bonafrog, and-
*(Napoleon notices the Mutanimals glaring at him.)
*Napoleon: (facepalming): Oh, man... Listen, guys, I'm sorry about the whole "attacking you" thing.
*(Slash simply nods at him.)
*Slash: It's fine. We all make mistakes sometimes.
*Malachi: But quick question: where did you get your war cry from?
*(Napoleon is confused.)
*Napoleon: My war cr-
*(He suddenly remembers.)
*Napoleon: Ohhhhh, that. Yeah, I learned it from a friend of mine. He looked like some ninja turtle, or something like that.
*(Mondo suddenly gets a thought.)
*Mondo: So, Napoleon, did this friend of yours happen to be wearing an orange mask and had big, childish blue eyes?
*Napoleon: Yeah, so what?
*Mondo: WE KNOW HIM!
*(Napoleon is surprised.)
*Napoleon: Aw, seriously?
*Mondo: Yeah!
*(Napoleon then gets a scoop of mud out from some pond scum and puts it on his head. Monkey Brains reacts in disgust.)
*Napoleon: Well, any friend of Mikey's is a friend of mine. Come on! I'll take you to our sick hiedout. It's probably the most heavily-guarded fortress ever, and stuff.
*(The Mutanimals start following Napoleon.)
===Episode 11: "The Sands of Time, Part 1"===
*(Everything starts shaking. The Mutanimals and Renet try to keep their balance.)
*Lord Simultaneous (O.S.): RENET!!!
*Renet: Oh, no! It's Lord Simultaneous!
*Mondo: Who?
*(Suddenly, Lord Simultaneous appears in the sky. The Mutanimals look shocked.)
*Lord Simultaneous: Renet Tilley, what have you done?! The Savantis are causing havoc throughout the time stream because of your carelessness! You will fix this or your apprenticeship is over!
*(Newtralizer steps up.)
*Newtralizer: (angrily) Listen up, you overgrown face! The eight of us are having a really bad day from having to deal with those time-traveling goats in human flesh, and the last thing we need is some know-it-all time prick slowing us down! So for the sake of everyone, just shut up and let us deal with this before the Savantis cause even more damage then they already have!
*Lord Simultaneous: SILENCE!!!
===Episode 18: "Legend of the Dark Gaia"===
*(Newtralizer is seen scouting throughout the forest. He has an irritated frown on his face)
*Newtralizer: (muttering to himself) Those idiots. Why can't they see just how horrible the Kraang are? If they knew what-
*(Newtralizer cuts through some vegetation with his blade and suddenly sees something offscreen and that makes him go from aggravated to horrified.)
*Newtralizer: Oh, no...
*(Cut back to the Mutanimals, who are waiting patiently for Newtralizer to come back. They then hear some footsteps approaching quickly as Newtralizer stumbles through the bushes, almost out of breath. Leatherhead goes to him.)
*Leatherhead: Newtralizer, what happened?
*(The others grow worried as they see Newtralizer wearing an uncharacteristically somber expression on his face)
*Newtralizer: I saw something...Come on, I'll show you.
*(The Mutanimals follow Newtralizer through the dense jungle with worried looks on their faces. They come to a clearing where their concerned expressions suddenly turn shocked before slowly fading to sadness when they see what made Newtralizer gasp: A dying Triceratops. But Pete screams and clings onto Monkey Brains.)
*Pete: AH! IT'S A TRICERATON!
*Monkey Brains: (frowning as he pushes Pete off him) It's not a Triceraton, Peter. It's a Triceratops.
*Pete: Then why does it look like a Triceraton?
*Monkey Brains: Because the Triceratons look like mutated forms of these extinct creatures. I've always dreamt of seeing one up close...
*(He frowns sadly as he looks at it.)
*Monkey Brains: But not like this.
*(Newtralizer walks over to it and kneels down next to its face as somber music begins to play. He strokes its neck calmly as its breathing turns shallow, reassuring that the worst is over now.)
*Newtralizer: Don't worry. I'm here.
*(The Mutanimals bow their heads in silence as Newtralizer comforts the dying Triceratops. Mondo removes his hat and holds it over his chest as Malachi's eyes begin to well up with tears)
*Newtralizer: There, there.
*(Malachi chokes back a sob as Pete gives him a side hug. The triceratops closes its eyes as it exhales its last breath and stops moving. Newtralizer gets up and hangs his head in sadness.)
*Newtralizer: He's dead.
*(Malachi starts crying uncontrollably as Pete holds him. Mondo, who still has his hat over his chest, is licking his eyeballs as tears begin to fall from them. A few seconds later, his expression goes from distraught to angry as he wipes away his tears and places his hat back on his head before balling his fist in fury)
*Mondo: (lowly yet hatefully) The Kraang. Are going. To pay.
==Unknown==
===The Final Episode===
*(Nighttime; the Mutanimals are standing on a rooftop overlooking the city as a voice-over by Slash begins)
*Slash: There are a lot of people in the world who think differently about us mutants. Some of them think we're freaks. Others think we're heroes. We may not be able to decide how people think of us, but we are able to protect them with our lives.
*(There's a pause as the Mutanimals glance at each other with smiles and then back at their allies, which consist of Candy, Jesse, the Turtles, Splinter, April, Casey, Mousepad, Wingnut, Screwloose, Angel, Fugitoid, and the Rebel Triceratons. Mondo and Candy can be seen holding hands, as well as Malachi and Mousepad, April and Casey, and Traximus and Alathea. Slash's voice-over continues)
*Slash: And we can always count on those we call friends to help us in our noble cause.
*(There's another pause as our heroes turn their attention to the source of a scream, which is a family being advanced on by Snakeweed or Spider Bytez. Everyone's faces become stern as Slash's voice-over continues)
*Slash: So whenever you're being jeopardized by mutants or evil ninjas or aliens from another dimension, you can be sure we'll be there to save you.
*(Everyone preps for battle as Slash prepares to leap down to into action.)
*Slash: So who are we exactly?
*(Slash leaps, and the camera turns black with the show's logo as soon as Slash gets close enough to it)
*Slash: We're the Mighty Mutanimals.
===The Japanese Episode===
====Tang Shen's Ghost====
*(Scene: The Mutanimals and the Turtles' camp. The group is fast asleep, but Leonardo is walking around. He hears some wind blowing towards the east. Curious, he decides to follow. Mikey wakes up and sees Leo running off into the dark. He nudges Leatherhead to wake him up. Meanwhile, Leo is seen running through the forest until he stops short of a field. He looks down and notices a pond. He kneels down and looks at it. He outstretches his right hand and touches it with one finger. The ripples appear to change Leo's appearance in the pond to that of Tang Shen. Leonardo is surprised. As he turns to leave, he stops to see the Mutanimals and his brothers looking at him.)
*Leo: What are you guys doing here?
*(Mikey steps up.)
*Mikey: I saw you leave and we decided, as a whole, to follow you.
*(Leatherhead goes up to Leo and puts his hand on Leo's shoulder.)
*Leatherhead: What did you see, my friend?
*(Leo looks down and heads back to the pond.)
*Leo: I thought I saw someone in the water. It must have been nothing.
*(Suddenly, some rumbling coming from the field is heard as the Mutanimals and the Turtles look at the field. They jump the pond and race out into the open field, where they see clouds forming overhead. The clouds form a shape that looks like the ghost of Tang Shen.)
====Charging into Battle====
*(The Turtles, Newtralizer, Malachi, Monkey Brains, Pete and Mondo are on a hill overlooking a Japanese village that has been overtaken by the Foot Clan. The Turtles and Mutanimals are mounted on horses, but for some reason, Slash and Leatherhead are nowhere to be seen)
*Leo: Alright guys, it's do or die time. Everyone in that village is being opressed by the Foot, and it's up to us to-
*Malachi: Uh, Leo?
*Leo: (annoyed sigh) Yes, Malachi?
*Malachi: Don't you think we should wait until Slash and Leatherhead get here? I don't know what's taking them- 
*Slash (O.S.): We're here.
*(The others turn around and take on suprised/confused looks upon seeing Slash and Leatherhead ride up on a pair of oxen. Leatherhead seems okay but Slash has his arms crossed and a visibly annoyed expression on his face as he rides up and stops between Mondo and Newtralizer. The mutant lizard raises his finger and opens his mouth to say something, but Slash shoots a glare at him)
*Slash (glaring at Mondo who is clearly going to ask about the ox Slash is riding): Do NOT start with me.
*Leo: Okay... Now where was I? Oh, yeah.
*(Leo unsheathes one of his katanas and raises it high in the air)
*Leo: Turtles! Mutanimals! CHARGE!!!
*(The others let loose battle cries of their own as they charge down the hill on their horses/oxen towards the village)
===TBA===
*(Newtralizer and Mondo are shown rummaging through garbage in the city’s junkyard. Newtralizer pulls the battery out of a broken down car and looks at it with light disgust before calling out to Mondo)
*Newtralizer: Have you found anything useful yet, Mondo?!
*(Mondo then emerges from behind a mound of garbage wearing a top hat on his head)
*Mondo Gecko: Other than this cool hat, I’ve got nothing!
*(Newtralizer then scowls and looks at the car battery in frustration)
*Newtralizer: This was a waste of time.
*(He then throws the car battery over his shoulder and begins to walk off but then turns around after he hears a rumbling noise; the car battery has bounced off the top of a mound of garbage, causing it to crumble away to reveal an old keg machine. Both Newtralizer and Mondo seem interested at the sight of this device)
*Newtralizer: What’s that thing supposed to be?
*(Mondo begins walking over to the machine)
*Mondo: It looks like an old keg machine. I remember seeing one of these things at a block party I went to one time.
*(Mondo then stops in front of a lever that’s attached to the machine)
*Mondo: I wonder…
*(Mondo then grasps the lever and pulls it towards him, which causes a keg to be launched into the air before it explodes. Mondo and Newtralizer look surprised by this at first, but then Mondo grins enthusiastically at this new discovery)
*Mondo: Aw, sick! This thing is awesome!
*(Mondo then pulls the lever again three more times, which causes three more kegs to be launched into the air and then explode. At this point, Newtralizer’s own surprise has morphed into enthusiasm as he grins widely, rushes towards the keg machine and shoves Mondo out of the way)
*Mondo (in response to being shoved): Whoa! Newtie, what the heck?!
*Newtralizer (grinning almost maniacally): Why settle for three exploding kegs when we can have A MILLION EXPLODING KEGS!?!
*(Newtralizer then begins rapidly pulling the lever back and forward, which causes kegs to be launched and detonated just as quickly. The keg machine then begins to overheat and malfunction, which causes Mondo and Newtralizer to become fearful)
*Mondo: Oh man… HIT THE DECK!!!
*(The two quickly make their way over to a wrecked van and take cover behind it just as the machine explodes. Mondo and Newtralizer then poke their heads out from behind the van to see a large crater where the keg machine used to be)
*Newtralizer (looking shocked at what just happened): … Well, that escalated quickly.
===TBA #2===
*(In Baxter or Adrian Stockman's laboratory, Bebop is shown with a beaker of retro-mutagen in one hand while Road Hog and Terrorcuda are standing across from him, the latter desperately trying to dissuade the other swine from exposing himself to the retro-mutagen)
*Road Hog: Zeck, please don't do this! You're going to undo the greatest gift that was ever given to you!
*Bebop: Gift?! GIFT?! You think this (gestures to himself) is a gift?! I used to be a hunk before this happened to me and I'm sick of being a dang pig!
*Terrorcuda: (angrily) Will you just shut up?! Rufus here's a mutant pig too, but you don't see him griping about it! You should be glad Shredder didn't turn you into something even more humiliating like a French poodle, or something downright useless like a snail or a worm!
===TBA #3===
*(The Turtles form a defending stance against Bebop and Rocksteady. Perri Grey is behind the Turtles.)
*Rocksteady: Just hand over retro-mutagen gun and we be going on our happy way.
*(The turtles unsheath their weapons.)
*Raph: You two are going down!
*Mikey: Yeah! Bring it on, Bebop and Rocksteady!
*(Bebop growls.)
*Bebop: STOP CALLING ME BEBOP! I'M GONNA TURN YOU INTO TURTLE SOUP, SON!
*(Perri Grey clears her throat and makes her voice heard.)
*Perri: Um, allow me to interrupt, but-
*Bebop:  BUT WHAT?! YOU GONNA CALL ME BEBOP AS WELL?!
*Perri: No, I wasn't, Mr. Zeck. I was going to say, "If you don't like the name Bebop so much, why not change your name to Jazz?"
*(Bebop raises his finger as he begins to protest, but pauses as he ponders this choice, then smiles and looks at Rocksteady.)
*Bebop: You know, squirrel girl's got a point: Jazz does sound WAY more suave than Bebop.
*(Mikey turns and looks at Perri.)
*Mikey: Wait a minute. I thought you didn't want to refer to the enemies we and the Mutanimals face by their nicknames.
*Perri: I don't.
*Mikey: So why are you calling him Jazz? He was just fine as Bebop!
*Perri: True, but the swine has a point; the name "Bebop" sounds completely idiotic.
*(Slowly but surely, Mikey's confused face turns into rage as he throws down his nunchucks.)
*Mikey: (screaming childlishly) No! No, no, no, no, NO! WE'RE CALLING HIM BEBOP! THAT'S THE END OF IT! ONLY I GET TO NAME THE BAD GUYS! ME! ME!! ME!!!
*(Bebop and Rocksteady chuckle.)
===TBA #4===
*(Road Hog and El Hippo bring in Izo, who is chained up. They toss him to the ground where he lands on his knees. He looks up and sees Mutant Master, who is looking out the window at the rainy city.)
*Mutant Master: So this is the famous Oroku Izo, I presume?
*(Izo growls.)
*Izo: Yes. Now unchain me, or so help me-
*(Izo doesn't finish his sentence as Mutant Master grabs him by the neck with his leg-tentacles and lifts him up. Lightning strikes outside and the resulting light reveals Mutant Master's face to Izo.)
*Mutant Master: I figured you would say something like that.
*(He strengthens his grip on Izo's neck. Izo's face turns blue as he struggles to remove the tentacle from his neck.)
*Izo: Please...mercy...
*(Mutant Master lets go of him and drops him to the floor. Izo gasps for air.)
*Mutant Master: Now, back to business. We both share a common enemy: the Mighty Mutanimals and the Ninja Turtles, both of whom are traitors to mutantkind. Which is why I'm offering you a deal.
*(Mutant Master rips the chains off Izo.)
*Mutant Master: If we combine our forces, we'll be able to wipe out the Mutanimals and their allies, including the rat they call Splinter.
*(Izo growls at the mention of Hamato Yoshi's name.)
*Izo: Very well. If I may have one thing.
*Mutant Master: What would that be, partner?
*Izo: Complete control over your so-called "army".
*Mutant Master: No! I will not let my soldiers be controlled by a human!
*(Mutant Master starts walking around.)
*Mutant Master: (rambling) You humans think you can demonize us mutants while you can walk around in broad daylight without being called "freaks" or "abominations"!
*(Izo is surprised by Mutant Master revealing his prejudice against humans.)
*Izo: I see. But you are not the only one considered an abomination.
*(Izo takes a picture of Oroku Saki without his helmet out of his pocket and shows it to Mutant Master.)
*Izo: My father earned these scars from when Hamato Yoshi took his family away from him, including his beloved Tang Shen.
*(He puts the picture back into his pocket.)
*Izo: I will let you control my army, if you will let me rule over yours. Do we have a deal?
*(Izo sticks out his hand. Mutant Master smiles devilishly as he shakes his hand.)
*Mutant Master: Very well, partner.
*(The episode ends.)
===TBA #5===
*(Scene: Oroku Izo is shown sitting on his throne in his audience chamber looking at his father's picture of Tang Shen. The doors to the room then slide open as Tiger Claw steps in.)
*Tiger Claw: We have them, Master Izo.
*Izo: Good. Bring them in here.
*(Tiger Claw nods and gestures offscreen as he walks in. Fishface, Rahzar and Rocksteady come in behind him with Rocksteady carrying Sven over his shoulder, Fisface doing the same with Pietro and Felicity, and Rahzar struggling to keep a thrashing Short Fuse under control in his claws. The four captured mutants have bags over their heads as they are set down in kneeling positions in front of Izo, which are then removed to show Sven, Pietro and Felicity wearing worried expressions on their faces. Short Fuse however, seems unconcerned as he glances around the room.)
*Short Fuse: So, this is your lair, isn't it, Izo? Nice place. (Short Fuse's eyes then narrow venomously as his tone goes from causal to hostile) It's gonna be a shame seeing it go when I burn this place to the ground.
*(Fishface then cuffs Short Fuse on the back of the head, making the mutant ant grunt and glare daggers at him)
*Izo: You are in no position to be making threats, insect. If the four of you wish to leave here alive, you will reveal to me the whereabouts of Splinter and the Turtles.
*Pietro: What, you think we'd be crazy enough to sell out our friends so you can get to Splinter? What do you take us for?
*(Izo then stands up from his throne and walks down menacingly towards Pietro, before unseathing his arm blades and pointing them at Pietro's throat.)
*Izo: What I "take you for", cat, is an obstacle that is preventing me from extracting my father's revenge against Splinter who will spend the rest of his days in the dungeon if he does not reveal where the Hamato Clan is!
*Short Fuse: (Glances off to the side and scoffs while taking on a sarcastic tone) Yeah, revenge. That's what this is all about.
*(Izo turns his venomous glare to Short Fuse as the other mutants in the room, including Tiger Claw, begin to grow concerned. Worriedly, the Foot Mutants take a few steps to the side)
*Izo: What are you saying, ant?
*Sven: (worriedly) Short Fuse...
*Short Fuse: No, no, no. No, Sven, let me talk. (Turns to Izo with defiance in his eyes) What I'm saying, Izo, is that I don't think that this whole scheme of yours is just about revenge. Ya see, I've been thinking about it ever since Mikey told us what your daddy's problem is with Splinter, and to tell you the truth, I honestly think that this ain't so much about revenge as it was about your father's ego.
*(Izo says nothing, though his glare intensifies and his fists tighten, though Short Fuse keeps talking, unfazed)
*Short Fuse: If ya ask me, you're not just doing this for revenge; you just still can't deal with the fact that your father up and left you and your mother to fend for yourselves, and personally, I think ya just want to kill Splinter so you can convince yerself that ya always deserved Shredder's respect, not that it'd make a difference now seein' as he's dead as-
*(Izo then kicks Short Fuse in the face in fury, cutting the ant off and making him tumble across the floor until he stops a few feet from the entrance. Dazed, he attempts to get up only to be stopped as Izo's foot pins him down by the chest)
*Izo: DO NOT DARE SPEAK OF MY UPBRINGING TO ME, INSECT!! You cannot even begin to fathom the pains I have faced because of my father abandoning my mother! Neither can you understand the pains he faced because of Splinter and his clan!
*Felicity: (from offscreen) Don't you mean the pains he brought upon himself?
*(Izo and Short Fuse turn to Felicity, who is now glaring at Shredder with a firm and disapproving frown)
*Felicity: I mean, honestly Izo, your father had been at this for Lord knows how long and he's accomplished nothing since he and your clan arrived in New York. You haven’t learned a single thing from any of this, haven’t you?!
*Izo: No! I have learned from my father's failures!
*Felicity: You don’t honestly expect us to believe that, do you? Just look at what his clan has caused since coming to New York! He repeatedly jeopardized innocent lives with his “partnership” with the Kraang, he made it so that the Turtles’ human allies can’t walk outside without fearing the possibility of being ambushed, and because of him, none of your subordinates are able to walk in broad daylight without getting screamed at or called monstrosities!
*(Izo gets off Short Fuse and storms over to Pietro, Felicity, and Sven as Pietro is visibly growing more and more panicked by Izo’s growing fury)
*Izo: Do not blame my father for the current state of my subordinates, you feline! Their mutations were their own fault! Bradford and Xever brought it upon themselves for their own carelessness, Stockman’s was a punishment for failing him, and Anton Zeck and Ivan Steranko brought it upon themselves when they stole his sacred helmet and hunted my sister!!
*(Sven, who has been silent for most of the conversation then joins in, surprisingly cool-headed in spite of the current situation as he frowns as well)
*Sven: Now that you mention Karai, what of her involvement in any of this?
*Izo: What of it?!
*Sven: Shredder claimed to care for her as if she was truly his blood-child, but I'm honestly having trouble believing that given his previous actions involving her. He took her from her birth-parents when she was an infant, after he tried to kill her father but ended her mother's life instead, then raised her while feeding her lie after lie about her true lineage before making her his favorite "attack dog" against Splinter after discovering he'd been alive for all these years, and then after she discovered the truth about her past, he locked her away and used her as live bait just so he could get close to killing Splinter again! Just what is it he valued most about her, Izo?! Did he keep her around because he saw her as his greatest weapon against your enemy or did he just consider having her the closest he ever get to having Tang Shen?!
===TBA #6===
*(Scene: The Turtles' lair. We see Donnie entering the kitchen, where he sees Short Fuse underneath the sink counter.)
*Donnie: Uh, Short Fuse?
*(Short Fuse climbs out of the sink to look at Donnie.)
*Short Fuse: Yeah, D?
*Donnie: What are you doing?
*(Short Fuse grins.)
*Short Fuse: Well, Raph called me about how your sink was broken, so I ran down to the hardware store, stole a bunch of tools, and came here to fix it.
*(Donnie looks at him in confusion.)
*Donnie: OK, I get that. But what exactly are you doing to the sink?
*(Short Fuse gets out of the way to show Donnie the pipes. Donnie crouches down to see.)
*Short Fuse: I'm changing the old leaky fixture on the sink. I'm gonna replace it with a new one, which will be quite attractive, and will last for years to come.
*(Short Fuse grins smugly. Donnie gets back up and looks at the mutant ant.)
*Donnie: I appreciate your help, Short Fuse, but an experienced inventor like me should be doing this job. Did you even shut off the water supply?
*Short Fuse: I had Mikey turn off the water to the kitchen.
*(Short Fuse gets back under the sink and resumes work. Mikey, who had just gotten back from turning off the water supply and had been overhearing everything, enters the kitchen.)
*Mikey: Oh, you meant the kitchen sink.
*(Short Fuse pulls a wrench backwards and falls out of the sink cabinet. We hear rumbling as Mikey, Donnie, and Short Fuse look towards the pipes underneath the sink. Suddenly, water shoots out from the pipes and hits Short Fuse, sending the poor ant flying into the lair while also flooding the kitchen and lair. Mikey looks at Donnie.)
*Mikey: I thought he was repairing the bathroom.
*(Meanwhile, in the flooded lair, Short Fuse gets up and growls angrily.)
*Short Fuse: MIKEY!!!!
*(Mikey runs off screaming and we hear fighting sounds; obviously supposed to be Short Fuse beating up Mikey. Donnie groans in annoyance and heads over to the closet. He pulls out a mop and starts sweeping up the water.)
===TBA #7===
*(We see Jesse on a rooftop overlooking the 4-way crossroads between Eastman Avenue and Laird Street. He internally monologues to himself as he scans.)
*Jesse: (inside) No Purple Dragon scum yet. You never know where they'll strike next.
*(At that moment, he sees Raph and Casey cross the street to the Mutanimals' warehouse.)
*Jesse: (inside) It's those guys from last week. Time for Round 2.
*(Jesse grabs his bag of weapons, puts fresh cartridges of pepper spray and sleeping gas into his gauntlets and hops down into the alley. After looking both ways, he crosses the street and sneaks into the warehouse. As Raph and Casey place their things by the door, Jesse quietly sneaks in and ducks behind an Auman Chemicals shipping container.)
*Raph: (offscreen) Hey, Slash! We're here!
*Slash: (offscreen) Hello, Raph. Nice of you and Casey to visit. We're just getting ready for the game.
*(Jesse peeks from behind and sees the Mutanimals, Raph and Casey greeting eachother as they sit in front of their flatscreen TV. His eyes go wide as he ducks back.)
*Jesse: (whispering) There's MORE of them?
*(Jesse pulls a cricket bat out of his bag and sees Pigeon Pete munching on a piece of bread on the floor. He stealthily approaches him, and is just about to strike him when...)
*Sir Malachi: A cricket bat? Thou surely must knoweth that thou have to know what a crumpet is in order to play a game of cricket.
*(Jesse turns around and sees Sir Malachi looking at him.)
*Jesse: (flatly) Oh, crud.
*(Pete hears this new voice and turns to see Jesse standing behind him with the cricket bat in his hand. He yelps in panic) 
*Pete: Intruder! Guys, we've got an intruder!
*(The others turn around to see Jesse and they immediately jump off the couch to confront him)
*Jesse: Oh, crud!
*(He pulls a smoke pellet out and throws it at the ground, blinding the Mutanimals, Raph, and Casey with smoke as he quickly exits the way he came in) 
*Mondo: (coughing) Who was that guy?! A spy for the Foot? One of Mutant Master’s goon? 
*Slash: (glares) Let's make sure to ask him that when we get our hands on him. Come on boys! It's time for action! 
*Newtralizer: (smirks and readies his weapons) My favorite time of the day!
*(The Mutanimals, Raph and Casey leave the warehouse and see Jesse pulling himself onto the top of a building and running away.)
*Sir Malachi: He’s getting away!
*Slash: Not for long, he’s not. (looks towards the Mutanimals, Raph and Casey) Let’s split up. Raph, Casey and Mondo, you take the rooftops and try to follow him. Pigeon Pete, Malachi and Doc, you take the Van and follow him by road. Me, Leatherhead, and Newtralizer will take Laird Street.
*All: Got it!
*(The Mutanimals, Raph and Casey split up into their respective groups and head off to find Jesse. Meanwhile, on the rooftops, Jesse is running and panting. He looks back to see if anyone is following him, but there aren’t. He sighs in relief and looks forward only to see Raph, Casey and Mondo standing by a water tower. He skids to a stop and pulls out a baseball bat.)
*Raphael: OK, vigilante. Time for you to lay off!
*Jesse: Fat chance.
*(Jesse goes for the swing, but Raph grabs the bat before it hits his face. He looks at the label and chuckles.)
*Raph: A Jose Canseco bat? Tell me you did NOT pay good money for this!
*(Jesse growls and pulls the bat back. He then takes a swing at Casey, who jumps back and pulls out his hockey stick. They take swings at each other until Jesse hits Casey’s kneecap and trips him.)
*Casey: OW! Dude, not cool!
*(Jesse than directs his attention towards Mondo, who runs towards him and feebly tries to fight him. Jesse, unfazed, tosses him aside and pulls out a sticky bomb. As Raph and Casey get up, they see Jesse throw the sticky bomb at a water tower and hop down into the alley. Raph and Casey look towards the water tower and see the sticky bomb counting down.)
*Raph: Ah, sewer bunnies.
*(The bomb explodes and water shoots out, sending Raph, Casey and Mondo a few buildings back. In the alley, Jesse is catching his breath and lifts up his mask to wipe his face off when he sees the Mutanimals’ van pass by.)
*Monkey Brains: Wait a minute! Go back!
*(The van backs up and Jesse sees Monkey Brains driving, with Sir Malachi and Pigeon Pete in the passenger seat. Monkey Brains sees Jesse and revs the van.)
*Monkey Brains: I see him!
*Sir Malachi: Excellent! Now let’s thrash him!
*(Monkey Brains drives the van into the alley towards Jesse. Jesse, getting an idea, starts running towards the van and presses his foot down against the van’s front bumper. He jumps up onto the van’s roof and then hops down as the van crashes into the wall. The door opens and Monkey Brains, Sir Malachi and Pigeon Pete come out, shell-shocked from the crash. They regain their senses and see Jesse.)
*Sir Malachi: Get him!
*(Jesse sees them charging towards him and pulls out his cricket bat. This time, he manages to hit Pete and send him sprawling. Sir Malachi and Monkey Brains try to attack him from behind, but Jesse senses them and swings his cricket bat around, striking them in the face. They land on the ground unconscious. Jesse checks their pulses, and breathes a sigh of relief when he feels a bump. He puts them in the back of the van, and then locks it up with a chain.)
*Jesse: (inside) Both the rooftops and alleyways aren’t safe. I’m only a few more blocks, and then I’m home free. There’s only one more option: the street.
*(Jesse looks around, grabs a bike from a bike rack, and starts pedaling as fast as he can for home. As he turns the corner, he collides into Leatherhead and falls off his bike. As he gets up, Leatherhead calmly approaches him.)
*Leatherhead: Don’t run. I’m not going to hurt you. We just want to know why you entered our home.
*(Jesse grabs his hockey stick and holds it instinctively out as a weapon.)
*Jesse: Back off, croc!
*(As Leatherhead keeps approaching him, Slash and Newtralizer round the corner and see Jesse holding out his hockey stick towards Leatherhead. They don’t know Leatherhead’s plans; all they see is Jesse getting ready to attack their friend.)
*Leatherhead: Please, there is no need for this! If you simply explain yourself, we can find a peaceful end to this misunderstanding!
*Jesse: In another life, you overgrown walking purse!
*(He raises his arm and fires a cartridge of sleeping gas from his gauntlet at Leatherhead’s face. As soon as the gator inhales it, he falls forward onto the pavement unconscious)
*Slash and Newtralizer: Leatherhead!
*(They rush over to their comrade as Jesse bolts away down the street. As Slash tends to Leatherhead, Newtralizer looks back at Jesse's retreating form and scowls.)
*Newtralizer: You take care of Leatherhead! I'll get this punk!
*(Newtralizer then brandishes a weapon he grabbed on the way out of the lair and aims it at Jesse. Once he has a clear shot, he pulls the trigger and the weapon fires a bola at Jesse, entangling him and giving him an electric shock that stuns Jesse and makes him lose consciousness. Just before blacking out, he sees Newtralizer walk towards him.)
*Newtralizer: Lights out, Sleeping Beauty.
*(Cut to black. We see Jesse’s POV as he regains consciousness. He tries to move, but can’t. He looks down and sees he’s been tied to a chair with a jump rope. He looks around and sees that he’s inside the Mutanimals’ Warehouse. We cut back to normal view and we see that his bag of weapons and his cartridges of pepper spray and sleeping gas are on a crate adjacent to him. He struggles to break free as the Mutanimals, Raph and Casey walk in. They’re visibly angry and Mondo cracks his knuckles.)
*Newtralizer: We want answers, and you’re not leaving until you tell us why you invaded our home!
*Leatherhead: Calm yourself, Newtralizer. (kneels towards Jesse) We're not going to hurt you, human. Just tell us what we need to know.
*(Jesse sighs in defeat, knowing he is outnumbered. He motions toward his bonds.)
*Jesse: It’d really help if this chair wasn’t so tight.
*(Sir Malachi comes over and loosens the rope around his chest for Jesse to pull his arms out, but checks the knot on the rope around his ankles.)
*Slash: Now that you’re more comfortable, explain to us why you intruded on us.
*Jesse: Out of concern for the public, that's why. Every day this city grows more dangerous thanks to the Purple Dragons, the Kraang, and mutants like you. Someone needs to make sure innocent people don't get caught in the crossfire and I can't trust the police enough to handle that task.
*Casey: Oh, yeah? Well, sorry to tell you this pal, but this town isn't big enough for two vigilantes! 
*Sir Malachi: (uneasily) Casey, please...
*Casey: Nuh-uh! There's only one guy in this city who can make sure people are kept safe, and his name is Casey Jones!
*(Jesse's eyes widen from behind his mask as he recognizes Casey's name, catching the attention of the Mutanimals)
*Jesse: (disbelievingly) C-Casey...?
*Casey: (confused) Wait, how do you know me?
*Jesse: (falters) I uh...I'd recognize that name from anywhere! You've spray painted it all over the city!
*Raphael: Huh, that's funny. Last we checked, Casey hasn't tagged anything with graffiti since the Kraang took over the city. (He brandishes a sai and holds it up to Jesse's face threateningly) So how about we try this again? Who are you, why'd you spy on us, and how do you know Casey?
*Monkey Brains: (looking over the weapons Jesse brought with him) Whoever he is, he certainly has a peculiar taste in weaponry.
*(He then notices Jesse's Jose Canseco bat and sees there is a faded name written on it.)
*Monkey Brains: Gentlemen, I believe I've found a clue regarding the identity of our guest.
*(He hands the bat over to Casey, who looks and is able to make out the smudged writing on it.)
*Casey: "Jesse K"? What's... (his eyes then widen as he starts to put the pieces together). Wait a second... There's only one person in my life I know of with this name who has a bat like this. (he looks back at Jesse before taking off his mask, revealing a look of disbelief on his face) Jesse Katsaros?
*Raph: (looking over to Casey while still holding his sai towards Jesse) Who the heck's Jesse Katsaros?
*Jesse: That'd be me. (looks towards Casey) Hey, Casey. Long time no see. 
*(Casey stutters, and then rushes over to Jesse. He hugs him tightly, while Raph looks on in confusion.)
*Casey: Dude! We all thought you were dead!
*Jesse: It’d take more than a propane explosion to kill me, Jonesy.
*(Raph crosses his arms and joins the Mutanimals. He clears his throat and Casey looks back at him.)
*Raph: Casey, could you mind telling me WHO THIS GUY IS AND HOW YOU KNOW HIM?!
*Casey: Raph, Jesse was my childhood best friend. I met him back when I was a kid growing up in Lower Manhattan. We used to play hockey all the time.
*Jesse: Yeah, that’s good and all, but can I get out of this chair now?
*(Sir Malachi walks over to him and begins untying the jump rope while putting the scepter up against the chair. After he finishes, his scepter gets snagged on Jesse’s mask.)
*Jesse: Hey, sparrow guy! Your stick thingy is snagged on my mask!
*Sir Malachi: Whoops! Sorry about that, Mr. Katsaros. Let me get it off.
*(As Sir Malachi pulls the scepter away, he accidentally rips off Jesse’s mask. Jesse cries out and covers his face.)
*Sir Malachi: Oh, dear.
*(Casey goes over to his old friend looking concerned.)
*Casey: Jesse, what’s wrong?
*Jesse: Did you really think I made it out of that fire without permanent damage, Case?
*Casey: Come on, Jess. It can’t be that bad, right?
*(Jesse turns towards Casey and removes his gloved hands from his face, revealing burn marks all over his face. Casey jumps back frightened while Mondo inspects him.)
*Mondo: Geez, dude. What happened to your face? Did you faceplant into a waffle iron?
*(Casey glares at Mondo, who immediately shuts up. Sir Malachi approaches Jesse with his mask, where he rips it out of the sparrow’s hand and puts it back on.)
*Jesse: No. It was the Purple Dragons who did this to me.
*(We transition to a flashback of Jesse and Casey as kids as Jesse narrates.)
*Jesse: (V.O.) My family and I grew up financially challenged in one of the many decrepit neighborhoods of lower Manhattan. Whatever money they had, they used it to make me and my brother’s childhoods somewhat tolerable. I dreamt that as soon as I got older, I could become a world-famous hockey player and bring my family out of the gutter. But how could I have possibly known that my father had been paying the Purple Dragons protection money so he could keep his business afloat? One day, my dad took me and my brother out to a New York Yankees game on the exact day he was supposed to pay the Purple Dragons their monthly fee.
*Mondo: So what happened?
*Jesse: (V.O.) They sent their newest recruit to teach my dad a lesson, and his name was…HUN. After he snuck in late one night, he poured a bottle of lighter fluid all over the apartment and struck a match.
*(We see the fire spread throughout the apartment and the smoke detectors beeping like crazy. As Jesse and his family wake up, they smell smoke and enter the main living area to see Hun jump out the window.)
*Jesse: (V.O.) Hun fled the scene and in a desperate attempt to put the fire out, my dad accidentally hit a propane tank which exploded. My family died almost instantly, but I was blown out of the apartment and landed in an alleyway. I survived, but the explosion had scarred my face and the impact of the landing broke my collar bone and one of my ribs. By the time the fire department had arrived, I had vanished and let the world believe I had died.
*(Cut back to present day as Jesse finishes up his story.)
*Jesse: Ever since that night, I’ve trained myself in numerous fighting styles and crafted my own weapons to fight the Purple Dragons. And I’ve personally made a vow never to rest until Hun pays for killing my family.
*(The Mutanimals, Raph and Casey look at Jesse, shocked. Leatherhead approaches him calmly and puts his hand on Jesse’s shoulder.)
*Leatherhead: What the Purple Dragons did to you can never be forgiven or forgotten, but I would advise that you stop seeking revenge. Revenge can destroy friendships and harm innocent people. It can make you obsessed to the point where it cuts you off from the people you care about the most.
*(Jesse brushes off Leatherhead’s hand and points at him.)
*Jesse: Hold it, croc. Unless you’ve been me and seen the things I’ve seen, you have no right to tell me what I should and shouldn’t do. Hun ruined my life and killed my family, so I’m gonna do the exact same thing and ruin his schemes so that he can’t profit off of terrorizing innocent people! And when the moment is right, I will kick him off his throne and show him the exact same mercy he showed my family that night!
*(Leatherhead is struck silent and rejoins the Mutanimals. Jesse looks towards Raph and Casey.)
*Raph: You know, we could use another vigilante on our nightly outings. What do you think, Casey?
*(Casey looks toward Jesse and smiles; he understands Raph’s idea and is all for it.)
*Casey: Heck yeah, Raph! Just think: Raphael, Casey Jones and Jesse Katsaros – the three musketeers of New York City!
*(Raph smiles as he hands Jesse’s bat back to him. Jesse takes the bat and puts it in his golf bag.)
*Raph: So how about it, Jesse? You want in?
*Jesse: (smirking) When do we start?
*Raph: Right now!
*(Raph, Casey and Jesse all bump their foreheads against each other.)
*All Three: Yeah…
*(As they make their way out of the warehouse, Leatherhead sees Monkey Brains with a look of dawning horror on his face.)
*Leatherhead: Doctor, what’s wrong?
*Monkey Brains: I’ve just realized something, Leatherhead. With Jesse now a part of their crime-fighting troop, it seems that New York now has... THREE Raphaels!
*(As we see Raph, Casey and Jesse jump across the rooftops, they freeze in mid-air as the scene transforms into a comic shot. End episode.)
===TBA #8===
*(Scene: A laboratory in one of the lower levels of Mutant Master's army. Dreadmon and Terrorcuda are standing next to a service cart with mutagen canisters. The Turtles are strapped to operating tables, and next to them, are several animals (namely a caribou, a grizzly bear, a penguin, a snowy owl, a blue jay, a raccoon, a cardinal, a squid, a pufferfish, a cobra, a bearded dragon, a llama, and a snail). Dreadmon props the Turtles up and faces them towards the animals. Terrorcuda pushes the service cart over to the animals.)
*Terrorcuda: And tonight, before the dessert course, we present for your pleasure the traditional "Mutation Trolley". To start off...
*(He brings the caribou forward and pops open the top of a canister. He begins feeding it (similar to feeding a cow through a baby bottle), and the caribou begins shrieking in pain as the mutagen courses through his body. The Turtles can only watch on in horror as the caribou slowly and painfully transforms into a humanoid state. Eventually, the transformation finishes and Dreadmon forces the caribou up on it's hindlegs. The caribou begins panting in fear and fright as it looks towards the Turtles. Donnie can only look at the creature with a look of remorse on him and sheds a tear. Dreadmon walks the caribou over to Terrorcuda and they begin examining him.)
*Terrorcuda: (contemplating) Now this is quite a recruit for our army, ain't it, Jemarcus?
*Dreadmon: True dat, Trevor mon, too true. Rock-hard hooves for powahful punches and kicks, and those antlahs should make for good offensive attacks!
*Terrorcuda: Couldn't agree more! Now the only trouble here is what do we name this guy?
*(Mikey grows excited)
*Mikey: Oh! Oh! I know! You can call him-
*(He is suddenly silenced as Terrorcuda skates over to him and covers his mouth with a hand before taking out duct tape and placing some over his mouth)
*Terrorcuda: We never said we'd be taking suggestions, orange rind.
*(He skates back over to Dreadmon and the caribou before whispering something in the former's ear. The wolf looks surprised but then dons a grin at what Terrorcuda said to him)
*Dreadmon: Ya know what, mon? Ya may be onto somethin' there. I'm sure orange boy has some ideas of what we can name our new recruits, but the more I think about it...
*(He looks back over the caribou, still afraid and confused of what's happening)
*Dreadmon: I think that a good name for this fella would be...Milton.
*(Michelangelo hears this and begins mumbling. Though neither the Turtles, Dreadmon or Terrorcuda can hear what he's actually saying, subtitles are placed underneath for clarification.)
*Michelangelo: (muffled) What? Milton? That sounds so lame! Why not "Cari-Boom" or "Antlerblade"?!
*(Dreadmon and Terrorcuda smirk. Terrorcuda skates over to Milton and puts him in a glass container. Dreadmon walks over to the snowy owl, opens a canister and spills some of the mutagen onto some dead mice. Handing the small plate to the snowy owl, Dreadmon watches eagerly as the snowy owls gobbles up the mutagen-covered mice and begins hooting in fright as it transforms into a humanoid state. The Turtles watch in horror once more as the owl finishes transforming. It spreads it's wings to reveal veins all over the body with mutagen replacing blood. After Terrorcuda looks towards Dreadmon and the owl, he skates over and begins inspecting the mutant.)
*Terrorcuda: Let's see: Good wingspan, sharp talons...what do you think, Jemarcus?
*(Dreadmon thinks and looks towards Michelangelo with a devilish smirk.)
*Dreadmon: I think he looks like a "Douglas", wouldn't you say?
*Terrorcuda: (grins) Yeah, "Douglas" does have a nice enough ring to it doesn't it?
*(Meanwhile, Mikey's eyes widen in disbelief and indignation at the completely mediocre name the two evil mutants have come up with. He mumbles again a bit louder, with subtitles below)
*Michelangelo: (muffled) Douglas?! Is that seriously the best you can come up with?! I can think of a ton of cooler names for a mutant owl than that!
*(Dreadmon and Terrorcuda share a sadistic chuckle at how Mikey is suffering, and even Leonardo, Raphael, and Donatello are mildly amused by this. Dreadmon and Terrorcuda walk Douglas over to a glass containter like the one Milton is in and place him inside. When this is done, Terrorcuda takes out a bowl of birdseed and sprinkles some mutagen on it before placing it in front of the bluejay. The bluejay begins squawking in pain before mutating, much to the fright of the turtles and the pleasure of of Dreadmon and Terrorcuda. Soon enough, the bluejay is fully mutated before Dreadmon and Terrorcuda release him from his binds.)
*Dreadmon: Impressive wingspan, a sharpened beak... We've got ourselves another keeper, Trevor mon.
*(Terrorcuda looks him over before putting some armor on the bluejay. Presenting him to the Turtles, he chuckles and looks towards Dreadmon.)
*Terrorcuda: He definitely looks like a "Kyle" to me.
*Dreadmon: "Kyle"? Sounds perfect!
*(Mikey's eyes narrow, and starts to look frustrated. He murmurs a little louder, with subtitles below.)
*Michelangelo: "Kyle"? "KYLE"?! You've gotta be kidding me! I'd name him "Ironwings" or something cool like that! Can't you guys be more creative?!
*(Terrorcuda moves over to the grizzly bear. Pressing a button, several clamps restrain the bear from attacking and open his jaw forcefully. Pouring some mutagen into a salmon, Terrorcuda chops it up and feeds the bear piece by piece. As he does this, the bear starts roaring fearfully, which causes Donnie to feel more remorse than ever. He looks towards Dreadmon and glares at him.)
*Donatello: (on the verge of crying, but angry) I don't understand how any mutant can be so harsh to an innocent creature. If I wasn't strapped to this table, I'd make you pay for your cruelties, you...YOU FREAK!
*(Donnie's last remark echos throughout the lab. Everyone, including Dreadmon and Terrorcuda, are shocked by what he just said. Dreadmon goes over, and bares his teeth towards him.)
*Dreadmon: If I wasn't in such a good mood right now, I'd rip out your tongue.
*(Dreadmon walks back over and rejoins Terrorcuda as the bear begins mutating. It shrieks in pain and tries to break the restraints, but can't. Dreadmon and Terrorcuda watch gleefully as the bear finishes mutating into a humanoid state. As Terrorcuda forces it up on it's hind legs, he takes a ruler and begins examining the bear's claws.)
*Terrorcuda: Now this one's a keeper! Massive strength, sharp claws, great sense of smell. We've definitely got a swell soldier for our army, here!
*Dreadmon: Couldn't agree more! Now what do you suppose would be a good name for this fella? Grizzly-nator? Bear Claw?
*Terrorcuda: (glances at Michelangelo) Actually, I think we should go with the name...Francis.
*(At this point, Michelangelo begins thrashing around. He starts shouting, but it's muffled. Again, subtitles are provided below.)
*Michelangelo: (muffled) Francis?! SERIOUSLY?!?! Come on, you guys! "Grizzly-nator" or "Bear Claw" would've been perfect! What's with your guys' uncreativity?!
*(Dreadmon leads Francis and Kyle over to another glass container, where Milton and Douglas are pounding on the glass, bleating and hooting in fear to be let out. Terrorcuda ignores them and goes over to the raccoon. The raccoon hisses and bares it's teeth, ready to strike, when Terrorcuda puts the mutagen canister in front of it, the cap open. The raccoon sniffs at it and devours into it. As Terrorcuda watches, the mutagen soaks into the raccoon's fur. The raccoon begins thrashing around in anger as the mutagen courses through his fur and onto his skin. As Dreadmon walks back over, the raccoon finishes mutating and bares his teeth and claws, ready to attack them. He starts running towards them when Dreadmon whips out a taser and jabs the raccoon with it, stunning him cold. Dreadmon inspects the downed creature.)
*Dreadmon: Sharp teeth, sharp claws, nocturnal vision, natural trash-digger... We've got another keeper, Trevor mon!
*(Terrorcuda skates over and sees the raccoon. Putting a restraint collar on him, they watch as the raccoon stirs and gets back up. Seeing the used taser gun, he hisses fearfully.)
*Terrorcuda: Well, now we know what to do if he gets out of line: we just taser him!
*Dreadmon: What shall we call him, Trevor? Ring-Tone perhaps?
*Terrorcuda: (glances towards Michelangelo, whose eyes narrow venomously) Nah, sounds too lazy, Jemarcus. What about..."Steve"?
*(Michaelangelo looks furious and begins struggling against his binds while shouting angrily, though muffled by his tape gag)
*Michelangelo: (muffled) STEVE!?! YOU JERKS! You're doing this on purpose! These mutants deserve cooler names than what you're giving them!
*(The evil mutants only laugh as they escort Steve over to a cage and lock him in before turning their attention to the cobra.)
*Terrorcuda: Now here, we've got quite a beast: the cobra. It's venom's strong enough to bring down a grown elephant, making it one of the most dangerous animals on Earth. (Smirks) Can't wait to see what it's mutated form is like.
*(He grabs the cobra and straightens it out, weakening it. As he puts it back down, he pours some mutagen onto the floor in front of it. As the cobra moves forward, it licks the puddle and hisses angrily as it begins mutating. As Dreadmon and Terrorcuda watch with glee, the cobra mutates into a humanoid form. As it gets back up, Terrorcuda skates over and applies a restraint collar on him. As it hisses, it gets shocked and it falls to the ground. As Dreadmon gets up and inspects it, Terrorcuda takes Raph over and shows him.)
*Dreadmon: Sharp fangs, lethal venom, a hood for protection against sunlight... A warrior fit for a king! (turns to Terrorcuda) Trevor mon, why are you bringing the red one over?
*Terrorcuda: (to Dreadmon) You'll see. (to Raph) Listen up, plastron-boy. Because I'm a nice guy, we're gonna let you name this one. Make sure it's good enough to impress Mutant Master.
*Raphael: (uncertain) Uh...Okay? Naming stuff's normally Mikey's thing but I guess I can give it a shot. But what should I go with?
*(He glances back at his brothers, seeing Mikey thrash desperately against his binds and yelling through his gag)
*Michelangelo: (muffled) Raph! You've gotta give him a cool name! I can't stand the names these jerks are coming up with! Call him Snakepit! Cobra King! Venomaster! Just as long as it sounds awesome!
*(Raph looks back at the cobra with a contemplative look before he gets an idea before smirking, which Mikey doesn't notice)
*Raphael: Okay, I think I have an idea of what to name him. How about...Cecil?
*(Michelangelo's eyes widen in disbelief, then he starts thrashing around more enraged than ever.)
*Michelangelo: CECIL?! ARE YOU FREAKING SERIOUS, RAPH?! I THOUGHT YOU WERE BETTER THAN THIS, BRO!
*(Dreadmon and Terrorcuda smile gleefully as they look towards Raph.)
*Dreadmon: That name sounds perfect!
*Terrorcuda: I couldn't agree more, Jemarcus. (to Raph) You really got a knack for naming things, Red. That'll definitely impress the boss for sure!
*(Raph smiles as Dreadmon escorts him back over to his brothers. Michelangelo narrows his eyes towards him, but Raph just smirks.)
*Raph: Come on, Mikey. Can't you take a joke?
*(Mikey rolls his eyes and looks away from Raph. Dreadmon walks back over to Terrorcuda as they go over to the squid in her tank. They pour the mutagen into the water and watch as the squid drinks it. She begins writhing in pain and grows bigger in size. Eventually, she gets too big for the tank and busts open, spilling mutagen-laced water everywhere. As Terrorcuda brushes some of the water off him, Dreadmon goes over to the squid, who's gasping for air and flailing her tentacles everywhere. As Dreadmon grabs an oxygen converter off the counter, he wraps it around her forehead and props her up. Terrorcuda begins examining her, and notices she's the exact same height as Michelangelo. He gets an idea.)
*Terrorcuda: Hey, Jemarcus. Check this out; the squid's the same height as the orange rind over there.
*Dreadmon: What about it?
*Terrorcuda: ...I don't know. I just thought I'd point that out.
*Dreadmon: Regardless, let's see what we got here.
*(They begin inspecting the squid, who looks frightened.)
*Dreadmon: Hmm. I've read about squids before. They've got no skeletal structure, a vice-like grip, suction cups that would help with grabbing and climbing.
*Terrorcuda: And I've heard that they can expel ink like octopuses can.
*Donatello: Uh, it's Octopi. The plural form of octopus is-
*Dreadmon and Terrorcuda: (irritably) Quiet!
*(Donatello frowns but quiets down as Dreadmon grows an inspired look on his face)
*Dreadmon: So the squid can shoot ink, can she?
*(He looks in Mikey's direction as his grin widens)
===TBA #9===
*(Scene: Foot Clan's Old Lair. Karai and Shinigami near the glass ceiling and cut open a hole. Quietly rapelling in, they look around and approach the throne, which is facing towards. As they climb up the steps, one of Shinigami's tantos drops and clatters on the floor, which echoes throughout the chamber. The throne spins around to reveal a cloaked figure, who stands up. A red eye glows underneath the hood and two Foot Ninjas quickly subdue the two girls. As the figure approaches them, he speaks rather calmly than the girls were expecting.)
*Figure: How nice of you to drop in unannounced. I could've used some visitors.
*Karai: (scowls) Well you'd better have been expecting company. Anyone who tries filling that throne Shredder used to sit on makes them deserving of our attention.
*Figure: Oh, really? Well, if I'm so important, how come your father never mentioned me to any of you?
*Karai: What do you mean? Who are you?!
*(The figure takes off his cloak to reveal a boy around the age of 22. His right eye is covered by a metal eyepiece with red-colored glass. His outfit is strikingly similar to the Shredder's, except without the armor and instead armed with one sword. Most of his head is covered by a hood (not from the cloak) and a faded scar runs across his cheek.)
*Karai: What the...
*Figure: You really don't see any resemblance, do you? 
*Shinagami: Should we?
*Figure: I thought you would, seeing as how my father was the original leader of this clan.
*(The two ninja girls look completely thrown off and shocked by what he has just said)
*Karai:...W-What?
*Figure: Perhaps some introductions are necessary. My name is Oroku Izo. And I am the Shredder's illegitimate son.
*Karai: But...my father...he never mentioned a son...
*Izo: Because he wanted that part of his life to vanish away.
*(Izo caresses Karai's chin and makes her look up to see his face. He smiles cruelly.)
*Izo: How lucky are you, Karai, to have had a father who kept a secret son hidden in the back of his mind.
*Karai: ...I...I don't understand. How can you be the Shredder's son? All my life I've been told the only woman the Shredder ever loved was my mother. How can you be his son?
*Izo: Because the only other woman he ever cared for...was a Shanghai prostitute.
*(As Izo speaks, we see his backstory told through the iconic comic art style.)
*Izo: My mother first met Shredder when he and his friend Hamato Yoshi arrived in Shanghai for a friend's bachelor party. Something drew Shredder to my mother, and they fell in love. He spent 10 months with her, during which I was conceived. But my father, believing he couldn't be a good father, up and left me and my mother to fend for ourselves. I couldn't be afforded an education because no one in the brothel bothered to lend me some money. If being abandoned and left penniless wasn't enough, my mother died when I was only 10 and I was forced to become an accountant for my mother's pimp. He would beat me regularly for any typing error and one instance resulted in this scar on my cheek. One day, as I was working, I saw on the newspaper that New York had been taken over by these aliens called the "Kraang." Wanting to know what was going on, I stole from the pimp's vault and bought myself a ticket to New York.
*Karai: So...it was around that time when you learned of Shredder and the Foot's presence in the city?
*Izo: Somewhat. Upon arriving, thousands of green canisters fell from the sky and splattered all around New York. Mutants began appearing left and right, and it wasn't until a visit to an Italian restaurant when I found the Shredder conversing with a Mafia boss. I followed him back to his lair, and approached him asking for a place in his clan. Surprised that I followed him into his lair and blended in without being noticed, he ordered Bradford to train me. I soon rose through the ranks, until I became a part of Shredder's elite guard. It wasn't until his untimely death at the hands of the Hamato Clan when a blood test confirmed my suspicions. After you took over and corrupted the Foot Clan to be more lenient towards the Hamato Clan, I went into hiding and made a solemn promise: that I would not rest until I wipe out the Hamato Clan and their allies for good, and restore the Foot back to it's former glory.
*(Cut back to present as Izo sits back down on Shredder's throne.)
*Izo: So while we are technically family, we are far different in terms of background. You grew up loved, respected, with friends, and a promising future; I had to suffer parental abandonment, the death of my mother, having no education, being forced into a job, being beaten for mistakes, and living in a world where the stakes were bet against me.
*Karai: (scowls) Okay, listen...Izo right? Let's get a couple things straight here. First of all, you and I are not family. The only reason I was with the Foot was because Shredder abducted me as an infant and raised me to think he was my father and that my actual father was responsible for killing my mother. Second of all, don't start thinking my life was perfect just because I had a parental figure in it. You can't even begin to know what it was like having to train every day until my muscles burned, living day after day being told lie after lie, and being used as bait until being turned into some half-snake mutate!
*(Scowling, Izo stands up and faces Karai.)
*Izo: Maybe, but I consider that to be the long end of the stick. You don't know what's it like to have been raised in a brothel, watching countless women sell themselves for money, had to watch my mother slowly die, and continuously beaten by a pimp. While you grew up to become Shredder's second-in-command, I had to pull myself out of the gutter to where I am now. This clan is my birthright, and I will restore it to its former glory. And as for you and your friend...
*(Izo snaps his fingers and the guards let Karai and Shinigami go. They look up toward Izo.)
*Izo: Leave, but do NOT let me see your faces again.
*Shinagami: You're letting us leave? Just like that? What's the catch?
*Izo: There is no "catch" here, witch. I'm only letting the two of you go now because our father wouldn't want to see his children fighting, regardless if they are adopted or illegitimate. But I warn you...
*(He turns and looks at the two in dead seriousness)
*Izo: The next time we meet each other, as opponents on the battlefield, do not expect me to show you the same generosity I'm giving you now. Now go.
*(Karai and Shinigami exit through the glass hole. But Karai stops to look back at Izo, who has gotten back on the throne and is looking at the city, sighing regretfully. Karai then leaves and traverses the rooftops, until she catches up to Shinigami. Karai notices that Shinigami is looking rather concerned.)
*Karai: Shini...what's wrong?
*Shinigami:...All this time...Shredder had a son who had to grow up with next to nothing...All that pain and abuse in his life...I don't even think he knows what kind of person Shredder truly was.
*Karai: And he never will. We have to tell Splinter about this.
*(Karai whips out her phone and dials Splinter's number. Back at the Turtles' lair, Splinter is seen meditating when his cheese phone rings.)
*Splinter: The cheese phone!
*(He answers it and holds it up to his ear and listens to who is speaking)
*Splinter: Yes?..Karai, how good it is to hear from you! I...What?...The Foot have a new leader? Who is...What?...The Shredder has...
*(His eexpression hardens in concern)
*Splinter: (resolute) I see...I will notify the Turtles at once. We will meet you at the Mutanimals' hideout.
*(He hangs up the phone, clearly impacted by what Karai has just told him)
*Splinter: SONS!
*(The turtles race in and kneel before Splinter.)
*Leonardo: Yes, sensei?
*Splinter: I have received word from Karai that the previous Foot Clan has returned, and with a new leader.
*(The turtles are shocked by this news)
*Leonardo: What?
*Raphael: The Foot's back?
*Donatello: But the Shredder's gone!
*Michelangelo: How can the Foot still be around?!
*Splinter: Silence!
*(The boys settle down as Splinter frowns in concern)
*Splinter: I know this is very unnerving news to hear, my sons, but we must meet Karai and Shinigami at the Mighty Mutanimals' hideout to learn who it is that is now leading the foot. Now come.
*(Scene break)
===Wild West story arc===
====Meeting the C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa====
*(The Mutanimals are limply walking across the hot desert of Utah after crashing their ship a few miles back. The only one not walking is Pete, who is flying slowly above his comrades and panting like a dog).
*Newtralizer: (Exhaustedly) I hope… You’re proud of yourself Mondo… This whole thing… Is your fault!
*Mondo: (Defensively and sarcastically) Oh sure, this is my fault… for coming up with the idea… that we should ambush a Kraang facility when we don’t even know where it is on the planet! (Mondo begins to imitate Newtralizer) “Who cares where it is?”, you said. “It doesn’t matter as long as it hurts the Kraang”, you said. Well I think it should matter if it’s in the middle of a freaking desert!
*Newtralizer: Well, maybe if you hadn’t made the ship crash-
*Leatherhead: Enough! Both of you! This is neither the time nor the place for us to be pointing fingers at one another! And leave Mondo alone, Newtralizer! You can’t place him at fault for the Kraang using that energy cannon to shoot the ship down.
*Slash: (just as tired) He’s right… blaming each other… isn’t helping us… let’s just… keep going and hope… we find a lake or something. (Pete is shown to be slowing down from his flight due to exhaustion and thirst)
*Pete: Oh... Man... This goose... Is cooked!
*(Pete then falls motionless on the ground, much to Sir Malachi's concern as he heads over to his friend quickly yet thirstily)
*Malachi: Pete! Oh no... he's out cold, guys!
*(Newtralizer gives him a sideways glare in annoyance and its clear that the heat of the desert is getting to him)
*Newtralizer: Please don't mention cold around me, Malachi! This place is unbearable enough... without having... to think about...
*(Newtralizer fails to finish his sentence as he falls to his knees before falling face-down in the sand)
*Mondo: You know, Newtie’s right… I think we should… take a little nap…
*(Mondo then faints onto the desert as well)
*Slash: (exhaustedly yet frantically) No… no you idiots, get up! We can’t give into the heat! We have to-
*(Slash is then cut off as he hears another thud, he turns to see that Leatherhead has also fallen unconscious onto the ground, with Malachi and Monkey Brains falling as well a couple seconds later. At this point, the heat is starting to get to Slash as he gets closer and closer to fainting)
*Slash: No… you guys… we have to… keep moving…
*(He seizes Leatherhead’s arm and tries to drag the mutant alligator across the sand, but is quickly losing consciousness.)
*Slash: We have… to keep…
*(Slash is unable to finish his sentence as he finally succumbs to the heat and faints onto the ground. The camera then switches to a slowly zooming-out overhead shot of the Mutanimals’ unconscious bodies as the shadows of some squawking vultures begin circling them. The camera switches again to show the vultures, silhouetted against the sun slowly descending from the sky in a circular manner. The camera switches yet again to a distant shot to show the vultures landing and swarming the Mutanimals as they begin pecking at them. A few seconds later, the growing sound of thundering hooves from off-screen halts the vultures from their pecking as the C.O.W. Boys, mounted on horseback, charge onscreen toward them while yelling like lunatics. As soon as they reach the vultures, they leap off their horses start punching, kicking, and shooting the vultures away.)
*Cowlorado Kid: (grinning widely) Woo-wee! Ain’t nothin’ like a good-ol’ buzzard blastin'!
*Moo Montana: (smirking and cracking his back while dusting himself off) Yep, always good to get the blood pumpin’ when yer out patrolling the prairie. (chuckles)
*Dakota Dude: (from offscreen) Uh, fellas?
*(Moo and Cowlorado turn as the scene changes to show Dakota kneeling on one knee inspecting Leatherhead’s unconscious form)
*Dakota Dude: You might wanna come look at this. I think those buzzards’ lunch might still be alive.
*Moo Montana: (frowns in confusion) What in tarnation?
*(Moo and Cowlorado walk over to where Dakota is before Cowlorado kicks Leatherhead lightly, which the unconscious alligator does not react to. A look of realization then appears on Moo’s face)
*Moo Montana: Wait, is this an alligator?
*Dakota Dude: Looks like it. I remember readin’ about these things. Books said they prefer swamps an’ such, but why would it be out here? This place is as dry as Death Valley durin’ a heat wave.
*(Cowlorado is then shown standing on Slash’s back looking at the unconscious bodies of Monkey Brains and Pete)
*Cowlorado Kid: Beats me. But I think we can all agree that this is the biggest turtle I’ve ever seen. And what’s with the monkey an’ the pigeon with the pants?
*(At this point, Moo has walked over to his horse and retrieved some rope from its saddlebag before walking back over to Leatherhead and tying the rope to his wrists while his friends watch in confusion)
*Moo Montana: I think those are questions you should ask them as soon as we get ‘em to some water.
*Cowlorado: (looks confused and a bit worried) Uh, ya wanna run that by us again, Moo?
*Moo Montana: Look fellas, I know we know as much about these critters as a donkey knows about square-dancin’, but the Code of the West says that a C.O.W.-Boy never turns his back on those in need, no matter who or what they are.
*Cowlorado Kid: Wait a minute, did you just make that up?
*Moo Montana: So what if I did? We’re still helpin’ ‘em.
*(Cowlorado Kid groans in annoyance.)
*Cowlorado Kid: Fine, but I ain't hauling the gator or the turtle. Dakota can do it.
*(Dakota growls in annoyance. After they tie some rope to the Mutanimals' wrists, the C.O.W.-Boys set off in search of some water while their horses haul them. Moo Montana's horse is hauling Mondo and Newtralizer, Dakota Dude's horse is hauling Leatherhead and Slash, and Cowlorado Kid's horse is seen hauling Monkey Brains, Pete and Malachi. Cut to commercial break.)
*(After returning from commercial break, we see blackness. We hear Slash's groaning as we see him opening his eyes from his POV. He looks around and to his surprise, sees Mondo cannonball into a pool of water surrounded by fresh green grass.)
*Mondo: CANNONBALL!
*(We cut out of Slash's POV to see him in confusion as he looks around. Pete and Malachi are seen playing in the water, Leatherhead is seen filling up a canteen of water, Monkey Brains is seen meditating, while Newtralizer is seen resting.)
*Slash: Guys?
*(Monkey Brains looks at him. He smiles.)
*Monkey Brains: Oh, hello, Slash. Nice to see you refreshed.
*(Slash gets up and walks over to him.)
*Slash: Where are we, doc?
*Monkey Brains: We appear to be at an oasis of some sort.
*Slash: But how did we get here? Are we...dead?
*Moo Montana (O.S.): Not likely, partner.
*(Slash turns around and sees the C.O.W.-Boys.)
*Moo Montana: We found you and your friends out in the desert being snacked on by buzzards. We were able to shoo 'em off, then we tied you up and brought you to this little oasis of ours.
*(Slash smiles and extends his arm.)
*Slash: Well, whoever you are, thanks for saving us.
*(Moo Montana shakes Slash's hand.)
*Moo Montana: My pleasure. Name's Marshal Moo Montana, leader of the C.O.W.-Boys. And these are my associates: Dakota Dude and the Cowlorado Kid.
*Slash: Name's Slash. And this is my team, dedicated to fighting all sorts of baddies: the Mighty Mutanimals.
==Comic-Con exclusives==
===An Interesting Night===
*(Mondo and Sir Malachi are sitting on the couch in the living room of their base. Mondo is flipping though channels on the TV while Malachi is reading a channel guide magazine.)
*Mondo Gecko: (frowns) Geez. Nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine channels and there's nothing good on.
*Sir Malachi: (looks up from the TV guide) Why don't you try the HUB network? I hear that My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is a pretty good show.
*Mondo: (gives him a look) I don't know, dude. I'm pretty sure that show is aimed mostly for girls.
*Sir Malachi: Oh, will you relax? It's just a show. And if there's nothing good on, then we might as well check it out.
*Mondo Gecko: (smirks) Oh, what the heck, let's go for it! (Mondo then changes the channel to the HUB network where the My Little Pony theme is starting to play as the two get comfortable) One episode won't kill us!
*(The screen then goes dark as the words "Half an hour later" appear in white letters for a few moments before the camera goes back to show the backs of Mondo and Malachi's heads sticking up from the couch as the end credits for the show they were watching begin to roll. Very slowly, Mondo lifts the remote and turns off the TV before slowly setting the remote down again. The two mutants sit motionlessly for a few more seconds before two pairs of steam begin sizzling from the front of their heads. Three seconds later, the two jump up to face the camera and scream bloody murder as their eyes are shown to be sizzling like eggs on a hot frying pan. They race over to the kitchen, still screaming as Mondo dunks his head into a water-filled sink while Malachi seizes a pair of lemons from the kitchen counter before squeezing them and squirting the lemon juice into his eyes, all while they scream in absolute horror. The screaming eventually gains the attention of Slash, Newtralizer, Leatherhead, Monkey Brains, and Pete as they rush into the room to see what's causing the commotion)
*Slash: (frantically) WHAT?! What's going on?! What's wrong?!
*(Mondo pulls his head out of the sink with a deeply disturbed expression still written on his face as he slowly and shakily sits down on the floor in a fetal position as he looks up to Slash)
*Mondo Gecko: (in a greatly disturbed-sounding voice) I will never. Watch the HUB network. Again.
*(Mondo then falls to his side and starts sucking his thumb. Monkey Brains checks into Mondo's telepathic link)
*Monkey Brains: Symptoms show signs of trauma-induced stress, showing they have seen something far beyond their comprehension.
*(Pete is confused.)
*Pete: What?
*Monkey Brains: They're traumatized, Peter.
*Pete: Oh.
*(Leatherhead helps Mondo up and covers him in a blanket as he gives him a bowl of enchiladas; his favorite.)
*Mondo: Thanks, Leadhead.
*Leatherhead: No thanks are necessary, Mondo. Just tell us what you and Malachi saw.
*(Mondo takes a bite out of an enchilada as he looks at the others.)
*Mondo: We were channel-surfing. Nothing good was on. Then, Malachi made the suggestion to watch something on the HUB network. The worst show ever made. It was called...My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
*(The Mutanimals are horrified at this revelation and look shocked, except Pete.)
*Monkey Brains: Good lord, man!
*Slash: Watching that show is suicide, Mondo!
*Leatherhead: No mutant or human could withstand the evils that are rooted within that abomination of children's programming.
*Newtralizer: Why didn't you watch something more manlier like Transformers: Prime or Dan Vs.?!
*(Mondo and Malachi look away in shame.)
*Mondo: Sorry, bros.
*Malachi: We never meant to do it on purpose.
*(Slash puts his hand on Mondo's shoulder, reassuring the mutant gecko.)
*Slash: It's fine, Mondo. Just don't make idiotic mistakes like that again.
*Mondo: Sure thing, bro!
*(Leatherhead notices Pete has vanished.)
*Leatherhead: Has anyone seen Pete?
*(They look around to see Pete on the couch turning on the TV. The TV shows a promo for MLP:FiM.)
*Announcer: Coming up right now, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Only on The HUB.
*(The Mutanimals all rush for the TV.)
*Everyone (except Pete): PETE, NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
*(The MLP:FiM theme song starts playing as the Mutanimals scream in anguish and bloody murder.)
*Mutanimals: AAAAAAAAAUUUUUGH!!!!!
===The Mighty Mutanimals Meet Deadpool===
*(Scene: The Mutanimals are walking around San Diego Comic-Con without any disguises, though nobody acknowledges them because they think the Mutanimals are just wearing costumes. Mondo grins to his friends)
*Mondo Gecko: (grins) Comic-Con. The one place where mutants like us can walk around without being screamed at. Was I right about this place guys, or what?
*Newtralizer: (mildly disgusted at the other attendees at the convention) Well, ignoring the fact that we're surrounded by a horde of acne-ridden mouth-breathers, I must admit, (smiles) this feels... good.
*Mondo: (grinning) You got that right, Newtie! Just check out all the cool stuff we can do here!
*(Mondo points to a Hobbit-themed section with Gandalf plushies.)
*Mondo: We can buy exclusive merchandise that won't be sold at toy stores back in New York!
*(He then points to some random panels.)
*Mondo: We can check out some exclusive behind the scenes stuff and hear our questions answered from the casts of some of our favorite shows!
*(He then points to the cosplayers.)
*Mondo: And we can hang with these fellow cosplayers without worrying about them realizing we're mutants!
*(Then, a cosplayer that looks like Deadpool walks up to them. Unknown to the Mutanimals, this Deadpool is the real Deadpool.)
*Deadpool: Woah! Who let in the reject monsters from TMNT here?
*(The Mutanimals are offended. Monkey Brains walks up to him.)
*Monkey Brains: Rejects? Monsters? I assure you, my good chap, that we are just fellow cosplayers walking around this lovely convention.
*(Deadpool glares at them. He points a finger at Monkey Brains.)
*Deadpool: Listen, Dr. Chimp, I ain't got time for this crap!
*(Deadpool reaches from behind his back and pulls out a flier of the X-Men.)
*Deadpool: I gotta find my pals at the X-Men panel, especially (lustfully) that sweet Southern belle Rogue.
*(Deadpool moans in pleasure. The Mutanimals are creeped out by this gesture.)
*Mondo: (whispering to his friends) Am I the only one of us who thinks this guy is completely off his rocker?
*Monkey Brains: You're most certainly not alone, my friend.
*(Deadpool overhears this and glares at them.)
===The Wildcard (Crossover with Batman)===

===Alternate Universe===
====Ending of Annihilation: Earth!====
*(Scene: the Mutanimals and the Turtles see a white spaceship come down upon them. The door opens to reveal a robotic figure.)
*Fugitoid: Hurry! We haven't much time!
*Donnie: Can we trust him?
*Monkey Brains: Do we have a choice, Donatello?!
*(the Mutanimals, the Turtles and some of their allies manage to run onboard. The door closes and the ship takes off. The Earth is sucked into the black hole and causes an explosion which sends the spaceship hurdling until Fugitoid stabilizes it. As the Mutanimals and their allies steady themselves, April gasps in shock and horror at what just happened.)
*April: Did that just happen?!
*(Leatherhead and Candy look at the screens on the windshield.)
*Slash: The Earth...Splinter...Everyone...Everything...
*Monkey Brain: Gone. Lost forever in a infinite gravitational singularity...
*(Slash breathes heavily as he looks at his fellow teammates, the Turtles, Candy, April, Jesse, Casey, Muckman, Joe Eyeball, the Kurtzmans, Short Fuse, Mousepad, Verne and Irma. He stops breathing as he growls angrily. His eyes turn white as he lets out a huge primal roar, one so loud that it causes everyone to cover their ears in pain. Slash unsheathes his mace and starts smashing everything, shouting incomprehensible words. Leatherhead tries to stop him.)
*Leatherhead: Slash! What are you doing?!
*(Slash responds by turning around and grabbing the mutant gator by the tail. He swings him around twice before throwing him against the wall. Leatherhead groans in pain as Mikey runs over to him.)
*Mikey: LEADHEAD!
*(Slash lets out another loud roar. Newtralizer backs away in fear; true, well-deserved fear. Joe Eyeball pops out of Muckman's eye socket and takes cover behind Fugitoid's head.)
*Slash: I'LL KILL THEM ALL!!!!!
*(Fugitoid turns to the console and quickly types in a code. In a split-second, a glass cube falls down on top of Slash and traps him. He smashes against the walls with his fists and his mace, still screaming bloody murder.)
*Slash: LET ME OUT! I SWEAR, I'LL FIND THAT TRICERATON COMMANDER AND MURDER HIM! JUST LIKE HE DID TO ALL MY FRIENDS!!!!!
*(Slash continues pounding until an anesthetic gas is poured into the cube. Slash finally falls over, passing out from the dizziness. Candy and Newtralizer help Leatherhead up as Joe Eyeball crawls off of Fugitoid and back into Muckman's eye socket. Meanwhile, Malachi looks out the window at the space where Earth once used to be. Tears well up in his eyes.)
*Malachi: All my friends...gone...
*(Malachi starts crying. Mousepad notices this and heads over to comfort her boyfriend. Pete joins in as he pats his fellow mutant. They head away from the window and sit down next to Short Fuse and April. Meanwhile, Newtralizer stares out the window balling his fists and clenching his teeth. It looks like he's about to go into a rage similar to that of his leader, but he calms down and simply looks out the window glaring daggers. His voice-over appears.)
*Newtralizer (V.O.): We've lost everything. Earth, our lair, some of our allies, and no enemies to fight.
*(He looks at his allies and fellow teammates trying to adjust themselves.)
*Newtralizer (V.O.): Fortunately, most of us have managed to escape, barely.
*(Newtralizer looks out the window.)
*Newtralizer (V.O.): The Kraang and the Triceraton's childish war has brought nothing but the destruction of my home and the loss of millions of innocent humans. I solemnly swear by my hand: the Kraang and the Triceratons will face nothing but total extinction for what they did to Earth.
*(Newtralizer rejoins the group as Fugitoid walks over by Malachi.)
*Fugitoid: Watching your entire world vanish into the quantum singularity of a black hole is rather distressing. Care for some hot cocoa?
*(Malachi takes the cup and drinks it up. Mondo looks at him.)
*Mondo: Who are you, brah?
*Fugitoid: My name is Professor Zayton Honeycutt, and you are about to embark on a wonderous adventure.
*(The Mutanimals and their allies look at each other confused. Casey smiles.)
*Casey: This. Is. AWESOME!
*(Short Fuse scowls and kicks Casey in the shin, causing him to jump around in pain.)
*Casey: OW! Dude!
*Short Fuse: Shut up, Jones!
*(The spaceship leaves the Milky Way as the episode ends.)
====Alternate Universe: Beyond the Known Universe====
*(Fugitoid opens the door and we see the Mutanimals' reactions go from casual to bug-eyed. The camera turns around and we see an entire arsenal of space gear and weapons; Newtralizer's dream come true.)
*Michelangelo: Guys, I think we just hit a Level 20 Booyakaha!
*Mondo: (Offscreen) No. Way.
*(The Mutanimals run onscreen along with the Turtles and their surviving allies. Newtralizer is seen pulling some photon grenades and some spacesuit armor from the shelves.)
*Newtralizer: I call dibsies!
*(Monkey Brains looks at Newtralizer confused.)
*Monkey Brains: Actually, Newtralizer, the Fugitoid said that we all can have the space gea-
*(Newtralizer looks at Monkey Brains with daggers in his eyes.)
*Newtralizer: (in an unnaturally deep demonic voice): I SAID: I. CALL. DIBSIES. GOT IT?!
*(Monkey Brains, looking unfazed, simply walks off-screen and puts on some space armor. We see a close-up of Mondo's face smiling as he puts on a space helmet.)
*
*(Raph steps up.)
*Raph: Yeah, can you hold on a sec? I just got a phonecall from someone named "I DON'T GIVE A FLYING FU-"
*Leonardo: (hesitantly) Fudge! We don't give a fudge!
*(Leonardo chuckles nervously. Raph glares at him with daggers in his eyes.)
