01x12 - The Pearl

[bunniefuu]

- Previously on "Tales of the
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,"

our family was torn apart,
sent out on errands.

We battled alone,
but with the Mutanimals,

against the forces of rain.

Rain and the East River Three,

evil-ish mutants
out for revenge.

Actually, to steal a giant
pearl, which is also bad.

I fought a seahorse,
but with the help of a pigeon,

and learned a valuable
lesson about listening.

Alone but together,
my family fights

to stop the city from flooding
and making mutants

like us look really bad.

Let's do this.

- So all the other fishes
in the sea kick you

and your freak buddies out.

And now what?

You are going to bring them
this pearl so you can go

home and all be friends again?

That don't sound
like friends to me.

- They thought
we were monsters.

They turned their backs on us.

- Forget them.

That pearl you're talking
about, it's worth millions.

You bring it to me,
I'll make you king of the sea.

You're a goldfish, ain't you?

You bring me that pearl,
everything you touch

will be gold.

But here's the thing.

Last time I dealt with mutants,
it didn't go so good.

I gotta know I can trust you.

I can give you
everything you want.

All you got to do
is eat the sushi.

Ugh.

I honestly can't
believe you did that.

- Yeah, you're like
a cannibal, but for fish.

That's super messed up, man.

- It began with four
brothers complaining

very loudly about a rainy day.

- No, I mean,
it was really only Raph.

- Me? What about you?

- No more interruptions.

This is the end of our tale,
as every choice,

every heartbreak,

every betrayal
has led us to this moment.

- Question...
how are we going to get out?

- I could have sworn I heard
the alarms go off in here.

They really are so lifelike.

- You want to tell me
what I'm looking at here?

Because it looks like a whole
bunch of dynamite set to blow,

but that can't be, right?

Tell me this thing's
not going to explode.

- It's going to explode.

- Gosh, you're
the worst, Donnie.

- What do you want
me to do, lie?

- [babbles]

- Who would want
to blow up the sewers?

- It's them,
these East River Three guys.

There's like a goldfish,
a seahorse, and some kind

of snake, maybe a worm.
I don't know.

According to their map,
they're going to rob

the Natural History Museum.

All this, it's like
a distraction or something.

- Huh.

That's actually not a bad plan.

Taking down these walls
would flood the city.

Between that and
the storm, no one

would even notice a robbery.

- Yeah, I hate to interrupt,
but the thing's

beeping there, mate,
seems a bit dicey.

[beeping]

- Yeah, good, Donnie, yeah.

Put your face right in it.
Go ahead.

- I think maybe I can disarm
it, but it'll take time.

- We don't have time, man.

We got to get to the museum
and stop those mutants.

- Dad's down here.

Our home is down here.

If the sewer walls go down...

- [babbling]

- What'd she say?

- She said, we'll deal
with the expl*sives.

You two can go after
the river mutants.

- We will?

- ♪ Ray Fillet

- Yeah, we will
because they'd do it for us.

We've got this.
You go.

Do what you need to do.

Just quick, could you
just quickly teach me

how to disarm this
thing, you know,

the broad strokes, the basics?

- We're all going to cark it.

[thunder rumbling]

- OK, here's the plan.

We go in there,
full ninja stealth mode.

I need to know
I can count on you.

- Actually, I'm still
learning how to count.

So you start with one.

It's crazy.

Two follows one.

You will never guess
what comes next.

- [inhales sharply]
I am going to die.

- Leo!

- Oh, thank God,
Mikey, Genghis.

What are you doing here?

- We went to get snacks
and then got attacked

by a giant mutant eel.

- I didn't eat the cat.
- That's right.

Good job, buddy.

Anyway, we saved
a lot of people,

but the eel, whose name is Lee,
by the way... she's super

sensitive to it...
she escaped, and we

think she headed this way.
- Oh, guys.

- Donnie.
- Raph.

- You're all here.

This is amazing.

- Yeah, you say that now.
Just wait.

- Raph's right.

Something bad is happening.

- What's with that building?

It's like a giant exploding
water balloon over there.

- A mutant seahorse
named Sally flooded it,

but Pete thinks
it's a diversion.

They're really trying to steal
the pearl from the museum.

- Yeah, that tracks.

I mean it's dumb, but why not?
Sure.

- [squawking]

- Easy, Pigeon Pete.

Everything's going to be...

- They're over there.

- [screams]
Pete talks now?

- Shh.
- [coos]

- We're going home.

- Wait, are we sure
the police aren't coming?

- Don't worry.

The anemones left a little
extra surprise that's

going to keep everyone busy.

- What do you mean?
- Don't do this.

[dramatic music]

- Or do, because now
that we're together,

you're pretty much fried, you
know, like... like, fried fish?

Just never mind.
- Good effort.

- The rat should
have listened to me.

If you know what's
good for you,

you'll stay out of our way.

- Actually, we have no
idea what's good for us.

So let's just...

- Not start a fight,
that's for sure.

We're just talking,
all being super reasonable.

- Yeah, these guys
aren't our enemies.

- They're going to
blow up the sea wall

and flood the entire city.

- We're doing what?
- They're lying.

They just want
the pearl for themselves.

Attack!
- Wait.

No.
