## Script

--> Metalhead's Point of Voice <--

```

Mikoto: I can't believe you've rebuild Metalhead!

Donnie: I feel bad about what I did to him last time. But not to worry! I'm had put some upgrades so it won't be control again.

Alya (as she records it): And it's thanks to Lina's system you install in. (post video) Now are you sure Metalhead won't turn evil like last time?

Donnie: You worry too much! He won't turn evil again. With all the installments there's no way the Kraang could possibly control him.

Kokonoe: If you say so!

Denki: What an awesome robot!

Ochaco: You're quite an inventor, Donnie.

Donnie: Why thank you. Everyone, I give you, new and improved Metalhead!

Michelangelo: Woah…

Donatello: I've been upgrading his artificial intelligence so he'll be the perfect training tool.

Leonardo: You sure? Training with Metalhead usually ends in him breaking something.

Donatello: I've programmed him to simulate dozens of fighting styles, including the Foot and the Kraang.

Michelangelo: Psh… You can't simulate MY fighting style!

Raphael: Let's just GO already!

Mao Yin: Oh boy.

Tsuyu: This isn't gonna end good is it?

Metalhead easily defeated the group.

Luna: That was amazing!

Jonah: A lot stronger then last time.

Dani: Sure is! Everything seem to be going smoothly!

Rach: Ya sure?

Dani: Of course! (chuckles) We were able to program him to better then the original.

Luffy: That's so awesome!

-Metalhead's hand lets go of Mikey-

Michelangelo: Ugh, I think he put my chin on my nose…

Donatello: Sorry, Sensei… But overall, I'd say that was a pretty successful test!

Leonardo: Successful?! Metalhead almost ripped Mikey's face off!

Donatello: Puh-leeze, I had it all under control.

Vaporeon: Oh really. Metalhead ALMOST RIPPED MIKEY'S FACE OFF! What sentence of "almost" did you not understand?! Are you deaf?! No offense, Sen.

Sentoki: {None taken. But Undertow's right. You have to be careful when using Metalhead. It could turn against us like what it did the last time you used it.}\

Espeon: We know that! Don't worry! We got it under control!

When one of the security wires is randomly tripped outside and sets off Metalhead's vocal alarm, the Turtles quickly set out to check who could be near the entrance to their lair.

Rach: A giant spider mutant?!

Dani passes out.

Lea: Not again...

Ochaco: Wait, this isn't the first time she passed out because of a spider?!

Lea: Yup. This happens every time.

Mickie: I shall play you a flashback of how she became afraid of spiders!

Ochaco: Um... That's okay. No thanks.

Spider Bytez: AAHH! You frogs gotta help! Those darn triplets are after me!

Leonardo: We are not FROGS! Wait, what…?

Vaporeon: What do you mean?!

Spider Bytez: Over there!

Everyone: The Kraang?!

He is captured by the Kraang up on the surface before he can explain at all what happened. Thanks to Donatello, however, Metalhead is already prepared for taking immediate action against this and he quickly arrives within the Shellraiser (using his degree of independence that was granted to him) in order to chase down the Kraang's truck.

(chase mode: Chase after the Kraang)

Akame: What are the Kraang up to?

Ryuko: And why do they need Spider Bytez?

Henry: I believe we may have the answer soon, Ms. Matoi.

Mara: Don't lose sight of it!

Vivi: (riding Karoo) Karoo, don't slow down yet!

Karoo (quaking): {Right!}

Vivi: They're heading that way! Don't lose them!

Morrigan: Good eye, princess. (chuckles) You shall be useful for this one.

Vivi: (thinking) Was that supposed to mean? Doesn't matter. We must save Spider Bytez. No matter what happens to us.

(boss battle: Defeat the Kraang)

Metalhead finally manages to crash into the Kraang's getaway after a short while.

Elizabeth: Eh?! Where did they go?!

Namerian Arcanine: They disappeared! Impossible!

Jonah: Looks like we have to investigate this area. (takes out two Pokeballs) Come on out, Gogoat and Lurantis!

Gogoat: Gogoat!

Lurantis: Lurantis!

Elizabeth: Good idea, Jonah! We can definitely find out where the Kraang have gone to! Let's help them out, Leaf and Macaroni!

Brasarian Vulpix: Vul!

Enekina: Ene!

Everyone's Pokemon Teams came out.

Vaporeon: Everyone, we'll be doing an investigation around this area! If you find something suspicious, shout it out!

Pokemon: Hai!

(investigation mode: Investigate the mysterious disappearance of the Kraang)

Flaraf: Huh? What's this?

Milkat: What is it, Flaralf? Did you find something suspicious.

Flaralf: Well I found a vending machine.

Milkat: Vending machine?

Micarin: This is no time to get some drinks. We must investigate.

Flaralf: I know but...

Brasarin: What seems to be the problem, Flaralf?

Flaralf: I feel like something is off about this vending machine. Maybe we should tug on the side to see if there's anything suspicious about it.

Male Growlion: It's worth the shot. Everyone, tug on the side!

As the Pokemon starts tugging and it reveals a computer

Vaporeon: Huh? It's a computer!

Flareon: Great job! But why would this have a computer inside a vending machine of all places?

Espeon: To prevent anyone from being suspicious. Metalhead, gain access into it's database to find any sort of potentially useful info.

It only wind up destroying it entirely and harming himself.

Miu: Way to go, you fucking genius! Not only did we lose the fucking Kraang, but Metalhead blew up our only fucking clue to where they went!

Michelangelo: Even worse, he blew up my super macho burrito!

Sonia: Now what should we do?

Donnie: I'll think up of something!

Tiffany: Hope you do. 'Cause we're all pissed off by this.

Donnie: (groans) So much for that... But look at the bright side. Metalhead's memory core isn't too badly damaged. Stop it, Mikey. It seems the Kraang security algorithms were too complex to decrypt.

Raphael: Less science-y, more english-y.

Akame: Basically, Metalhead couldn't get into the system because it's too complex to translate.

Angelina: And this is why you need me for this case.

Donnie sighs in defeat.

### Lair

Gabb: What's the long face?!

Donnie: Maybe they're right. It's my fault. Maybe I should've rebuild Metalhead.

Gabb: Don't be stupid! We NEED him! How else are we supposed to do without him?!

Donnie: I know but remember last time.

Gabb: So?! That was when he was a prototype! You shouldn't shut him down just because of the past!

Donnie: But what can I do? I'm a "villain". And I know they don't trust him.

Gabb: Whatever! Don't listen to them! They don't know anything!

Donnie: Maybe you're right. I'm gonna give Metalhead another chance. All I have to do is just add a few more upgrades and that includes decipher the Kraang language. Science had never fail me! You know, you're not so bad of a Kwami. You can be helpful if you want to.

Gabb: Yeah yeah! Now you better give me some noodles for dinner or else.

Donnie: Understood. Don't worry.

Gabb: Good! But where's Metalhead?

Donnie: Huh?

He saw a glimpse of Metalhead as he started to run. However, he closes the lab door.

Donnie: What's the big idea, Metalhead?! Open this door!

Gabb: This is just like Terminator. The world is about to end!

Donnie: Not yet. Everyone is at the dojo. They won't notice that Metalhead is gone. Besides, I got Kokonoe's teleportation device.

Gabb: That's my little thief. The others won't even know we're gone. (chuckles mischievously)

As they teleports out of the Lair

(objective: Follow Metalhead. Don't lose sight)

Mickie: Boo!

Donnie: (screams) It's you guys!

Kokonoe: My teleportation device?

He reluctantly give the device back to her.

Kokonoe: Thank you.

Metalhead steps into a Port-a-potty and disappears into it, much to the Turtles' utter confusion.

Aoi: A port-a-potty?! I always hated going in there!

Sonia: (opens) What? I could've sworn Metalhead stepped in.

To their luck, Michelangelo is somehow able to reveal that the port-a-potty actually has what appears to be a portal inside of it.

Donatello: -after Mikey opens the portal- How did you DO that?

Michelangelo: I just got the touch. LTD, Like a Turtle Do.

Mine: Whatever! Let's just go in and get over with this!

Leone: Another adventure! Let's go!

Tiffany: Better be careful though.

Ritsu: We know that. (chuckles)

Tiffany: Just wanna warn you though.

(exploration mode: Find Metalhead)

The base also acts as a makeshift prison for every single one of the Mutants that had faced the Turtles in both the recent and distant past, all of which include; Snakeweed, Spider Bytez, Dr. Tyler Rockwell's mutated form, Pete, Justin, Spy-Roach, The Parasitic Wasps, Kirby O'Neil's mutated form, The Squirrelanoids, and Slash.

Sonia: My goodness!

Mickie: This is horrible. We gotta save them.

Ibuki: Ibuki agrees! Let's save them!

(boss battle: Defeat the Kraang while Metalhead opens the portal)

Donnie: Yes! It works! (after saving Kirby Bat) Mr. O'Neil, fly out of here, please. (Kirby Bat turns to see the portal) For April, go now! (Kirby Bat quickly flies to the portal)

Espeon: Everyone, to the portal! Quickly before it disappears and you get stuck here forever!

As everyone quickly goes into the portal

Leonardo: Metalhead, we're leaving!

Raphael: C'mon, you tin can! Move!

Metalhead: -beeps-

Donatello: He has to keep it open for us…

Leonardo: But, what about him?

Donatello: We don't have a choice…

Mickie: Sorry about this, Metalhead! Hope we can see each other again!

Metalhead chooses to attack the main computer system there, destroying several Kraang droids nearby, along with himself in a rather big implosion. Back on Earth, the Turtles find out that all that remains of Metalhead now is just his completely inactive head (which actually came up through the Portal along with them).

Donatello: Metalhead… Oh, no…

Michelangelo: Dude! He saved us!

Leonardo: He saved ALL of us… You were right, Donnie. I should've trusted you.

Donatello: I programmed him to be intelligent, but… I didn't realize how much he had evolved…

Michelangelo: Donnie… I'm sorry about Metalhead, bro. I didn't really mind it when he grabbed my face. His hands were soft… for a robot.

Donatello: Thanks, Mikey.

Leonardo: You think you'll try building another Metalhead?

Donatello: Maybe I will… One day…

Miu: The fuck is that?!

Akame: A parasitic wasp.

Mickie: Don't worry! This one doesn't have a stinger!

Donnie: Doesn't have one? That's weird.

Mickie: I'm gonna keep it as a pet! I'll call him... Nibbles!

Aoi: Why that?!

Mickie: Because he likes to nibble! Nibbles, give them a good tickle!

As they quickly run away from Nibbles as it tries to chase after them

Cadence: (laughing) That's hilarious!

Mickie: It sure is! (laughing)
