Hy-yah!
Whoo!

[shouts]
[crash]

You must concentrate,
Leonardo.

First, see you enemy's
defeat in your mind.
Then your body will follow.

[panting]
Yes, Master Splinter.

[karate yells]

Oh, there's got to be
something to eat
around here.

I'm having
a mega-munchie attack.

Not your first
tonight, is it?
The cupboards are bare.

Hey, dude, I'm
a growing teenager.

The problem is,
we're all a little
lair-crazy.

Too much time
in the sewers'll
do it every time.

I say we bust out
of here for a breather.

And-- news flash--
the Video Madness arcade

just got in a brand-new
shipment of games!

All right!
Gnarly notion, dudes.

Let's grab Leonardo
and hit the streets.

[karate yells]

Hey, it's the Shred-head.
How did he
get past us?

I'm warning you,
can-face,

I've got a black belt
in black eyes.

Hold it, fellas.
It's only a...
[all exclaiming]

[blows landing]
I tried to tell 'em.

Uh-oh.
[Splinter]
Congratulations, my students.

It only took 3 of you
to defeat 1 dummy.

Looks like we're
the real dummies.

Hey, speak for
yourself, dude.

Okay, the coast
is clear.

It sure was nice of
the owner to let us use
the arcade after hours.

[Michelangelo]
Whoa! Scope out
all those games!

Power up.
This place is
video heaven!

[Michelangelo]
There's Slime Surfer!
Radical!

Forget that.
I'm playing
Turbo Tentacles!

[Donatello] Oh, there's
Brain Buster. I've been waiting
for a chance at that one.

Which one are you
playing, Leonardo?
I haven't decided.

[female voice]
Why not try your hand

at Tempestra's Revenge?
Huh?

Or are you afraid to accept
Tempestra's challenge?

Me, afraid?
I've beaten every game

in this arcade
at least twice.

Wait a minute.
I'm talking to
a video game here.

Tempestra's Revenge
is the ultimate challenge.

Pit your skills
against the evil mistress

of universal power,
if you dare.

That does it!
Lady, you're on!

[whirring, blasting]

We'll see who beats who.

[yawns]
Come on,
Sleeping Beauty.

Rise and shine.
I don't believe it.

It's almost dawn,
and Leonardo is still
on that same video game.

[Michelangelo]
Yo, dude,

it's c*ck-a-doodle-doo
time.

We've got to
blow this joint.
In a minute.

I've almost
got her this time.

Oh, look out.
She's getting
her revenge.

Leap over
that canyon!

[Michelangelo]
She's gone totally gonzo!
Dodge the ice bombs!

And watch out for
the fireballs!

[Michelangelo]
Dude, you crashed
and burned.

Give it up
for tonight.

But I nearly
beat her. Honest.

Sure you did.

Please, guys,
just one more time.

[footsteps]
Uh-oh.

It's the night watchman.
Let's make turtle tracks.

I'll be back,
Tempestra!

Come on, Leonardo.
Move it.

Oh, too late.
Hey, what's been
going on in here?

Someone's been playing
the video games.

[rustling]
Who's there?
I can hear you.

Come back here,
you lawbreaking punks!

[switch clicks]
Well, at least they were
neat lawbreaking punks.

Thanks, Leonardo.
Maybe next time we could
cut it even closer.

I tell you, fellas,
I should've beaten
that video game!

Face it, dude--
You've met your match.

Yeah. Put that
video vixen
out of your mind.

Oh, if only
I could.

Yo, Leonardo,
don't you want to
scarf some pizza?

Earth to Leonardo.

Your shell is here,
but where's the rest
of you?

I whipped up your
number-one fave--

shredded coconut
and sweet pickles.

Huh? Oh, thanks,
Michelangelo,
but I'm not hungry.

Master Splinter
is worried.

He says you've been
missing ninja practice
the last few evenings.

[scoffs]
And you're supposed to
be our inspiration.

So that's
your problem.

You're still letting
that video game
get to you.

A video game? Me?
No way. Those things
are for kids.

If you ask me,
that kid has been

sneaking off
to the arcade.

[turtles snoring]

[groaning]
No!

No!

You'll never
defeat me, Leonardo.

Never!
[laughing]

I can't let her
beat me!

[thunder crashing]

Okay, Tempestra,
this time I've got you!

Yes! I made it
to the 13th level!
I'm winning!

[electricity crackles]

[groans, coughs]

Oh!
What happened?

[chuckles]
My attack too much
for you, Leonardo?

Tempestra!
You... You're alive!

Yes, Leonardo,
thanks to you.

No one has ever
reached the final level
of the game before.

This isn't exactly
what I expected.

Well, that's what
makes it interesting,
don't you think?

But now the stakes have
risen, my green friend.

Now you are playing for
the fate of the world.

[crying out]
[laughing]

Somehow I've released this
evil force into the world!

I need the Turtles,

but I can't reach
my Turtle Com!

[laughing maniacally]

[laughing]
We'll see just
how good a player

you really are,
Leonardo,

now that the fate
of the world is
in your hands.

[groans]

Leonardo calling Turtles.
Leonardo calling Turtles.

What do you think you're doing?
Uh, just reaching out
to touch someone.

Oh, no, you don't.

Hurry, guys!
This is serious!
Wake up!

[snoring]

[beeping]

[yawns]
It's your dime.
This had better be good.

Make tracks to
the video arcade!
Now!

Why? Have you
reached a new level?

No gag, fellas.
It's doomsday if you guys
don't get here in a flash!

Is this about
that Tempestra game?

Yes, but there's been
a new development!
She's alive!

Yep, it finally
happened.

The dude has
flipped his shell.

It's time for the old
rubber aquarium.

This contest is
between Leonardo and me!
Stay out of it, Turtles.

I don't believe it.

Could this actually
be Tempestra?
She's alive?

That's what I've been
trying to tell you guys.

I've warned you!

Stay out of this,
shell-backs!

Yow!

Don't forget to see
your friends anytime soon.

[laughing]

Whoa-oa!

Whoa!
High tide!

The tunnel's flooded.
We can't get out!

[Tempestra laughing]

Look, lady, what's got you
so burned up, anyway?

You'd be angry too
if you'd spent
your entire life

imprisoned in this
stupid video game!

Whoa!

Whoa!
Now, now.

Temper, temper.

I haven't begun to show
my temper, lizard-face!

“Lizard-face”?
And I thought we were
getting along so nicely.

Escaping into your
dimension wasn't easy.

I won't use up
my valuable power

arguing with
a mere turtle.

By the way,
how did you get here?

Obviously,
the electrical surge,

combined with your
computer input,

created
a hyper-field vacuum,

pulling me through
this dimension.

Obviously.
Where's Donatello
when I need him?

I've waited too long
for this moment.

The time has come
to finally unleash

Tempestra's revenge!

[laughing]

Oh, that female
video chip

is starting to get
under my shell.

I'd better take this
computer circuit board.

It could be the only chance
to recapture Tempestra.

[Raphael]
How's the diving bell
coming, Donatello?

I need more metal.
More metal.
Right.

Dude, we're aquatic
creatures, remember?

How come we need
a diving bell?

Because even a turtle
can't stand


per square inch.

Here, you can use
our supply of pizza pans.
Great.

Oh, no!
Not my pizza pans!

I'm afraid so.

Oh, man, the sacrifices
we Turtles are called on
to make.

So, Leonardo,
we meet again.

You're on my turf
now, Tempestra.

Perhaps you've
overestimated your skills,

upstart reptile.

This should hold you
in your place.

[laughing]

[karate yells]

Ha-ha-ha!
Points for Leonardo!

This will take care of you
in no time flat!

Whoa!
Hy-yah!

You'll have to do better
than that, Tempestra.

Don't worry.
I intend to.

Try this on your
seismograph for size!

[rumbling]

Whoa!

[laughing]

It's an earthquake!

Leonardo, jump!

[grunting]
Thanks for
the lift, April.

That was a mighty
close call.

Who whipped up this
little shake and bake
recipe anyway?

Would you believe,
a video game?

[Tempestra laughing]

Now to give the humans

a taste of
what's to come.

Tempestra will reign!
[laughing]

Okay, Vernon,
you're on.

I am? Oh.
[coughs]

Good morning.
Evening.

Oh, right.
Uh, evening.

This is Channel, uh...


Oh, yes. Channel 6
weather update.

The current temperature
is a balmy 74.

Uh, no, I mean,
it's 12.

Wait-Wait a minute.
Oh, no, it's
minus-3 degrees.

Uh, a last-minute
correction.

It's 98...
or is it 32?

Don't ask me.
[Tempestra laughing]

Okay, so Vernon's
not so good.

But he's all
we've got.

[Burne]
Irma, get in here!

Y-Yes, sir,
Mr. Thompson.

Right away, sir.

I guess there's no
hot news in here.

[Burne]
Irma, get in here!

Oh, why do I just know
this is gonna end up
being my fault?

Mr. Thompson!
It's 112 degrees
in here.

Do something!

And get that idiot Vernon
off the air!

Yes, sir.
Right away, sir.

And I believed them
when they said this job
was a promotion.

I'm glad you're
all okay, Donatello.

Oh, don't worry about us.
I'm working on a plan
to free us.

What a coincidence.
So am I.

We'll keep tracking
your Turtle Com signal.
[static]

Donatello,
you're breaking up!

April...

What could be causing
such strong interference?

This, the new
nuclear power generator.

Let's hurry, April.
It looks like Tempestra's
having a snack attack.

“A snack attack”?
She may look human,

but she's still
a computer chip.

I think I may have
found her weakness.

Tempestra's powers
need power.

I hope this little detour
doesn't inconvenience you,
Leonardo.

There.
The nuclear generator
is that way, April.

We have to stop her
from getting a fresh
power supply.

[April]
Right.

This is too easy.
A little fog might
make it more challenging.

This awful fog--
I can't see where
we're going.

April, look out!
[screams]

We're going
off the bridge!

[both screaming]

[both screaming]

Hang on, April!

[crash]

I don't believe it!
It's Gigantus,

the world's biggest
roller coaster!

At least we
avoided the lines.

Oh, we're
going over!
Hang on!

[both screaming]

Try to keep it
on the tracks!

I'm just trying
to keep my lunch!
Whoa-oa!

[gasping]
We made it!

Want to go again?

Just kidding.

I must be recharged,
and soon.

A good jolt
of nuclear power
will do the trick.

Then no one will ever
be able to stop me.

When we open
the outside door,

this watertight hatch
should flood, lifting
us to the surface.

You sure this
is gonna work?
It better.

Soggy pizza can be
a real drag.

Hey! Watch it
with the elbow!

Yo, dude, your foot
is in my ear.

Or is that
my foot?

Well, okay, guys,
so it's a little
uncomfortable.

This isn't
a pleasure trip.

You got that right.

I will engulf
the plant

and absorb its
nuclear energy.

I can already
feel the power.
[thunder crashes]

Look, there she is.
And she's about to

load up on some
nuclear kilowatts.

We've got to
stop her!

Well, Leonardo,
who is your pretty
companion?

I'm April O'Neil,
Channel 6 News.
Perhaps you've seen me.

I don't watch the news,
I make it!

Now if you'll excuse me,
I have some serious
recharging to do.

[laughing]

I've got an idea.
It's a 1-in-a-million
chance.

Right now, those sound
like pretty terrific odds.

[Raphael]
Hang a left!
A left!

[Donatello]
Oh, I'd love to,

but this thing doesn't
have a steering wheel.

[groans]

Oh, major
wipeout, dudes.

Raphael, are you still
picking up April's
Turtle Com signal?

Yeah. I think
we're getting closer.

We've got to make
our move now.

Hey, Tempestra,
over here!

There is no counterattack
this time, Leonardo!

There'd better be.
Your batteries are dead.

And I thought you were
supposed to be all-powerful.

What a joke!
[laughing]

A joke, am I?

Leonardo,
what are you doing?
You'll see.

Do not challenge
the power of Tempestra!

You don't look
so powerful to me.

Uh, she's getting
awfully steamed.

I'm counting on it.

You fool!

I am programmed
to win at any cost!

Perhaps these creatures
will convince you.

[all roaring, screeching]

She's about out of juice.
These guys are her
last-ditch effort.

Not bad for a gal
with a weak battery.

Don't worry.
I can handle

whatever she can
dish out... I hope.

[Donatello]
According to my
calculations,

they should be
directly above us.

[roaring]

I hope Leonardo
finishes 'em off in time
for the 11:00 news.

Cowabunga!

[gasps]
I thought you'd
never get here.

Sorry for the delay.
We had this minor
plumbing problem.

[roaring]

Oh, yeah?

There, dude.
Maybe that'll teach you
not to play with fire.

I think it's about time
someone cut you down to size.

[electricity crackling]

This one's
on me, fellas.
Hy-yah!

There's no charge
for that.

That turtle tricked me!

I must have immediate power
to defeat him!

A nuclear generator
expl*si*n will take
care of that.

Leonardo, stop her!
She's going to blow up
the nuclear generator!

I'm afraid I'll just
have to short-circuit

that idea,
Tempestra.

No-o-o!

You've made the board
an electromagnetic
energy field.

[Leonardo]
Okay, if you say so.

[Tempestra's voice]
Beaten by a turtle!

No-o-o!

[crackling]

Final points--
Leonardo!

“Tubuloso” move, dude.

She was definitely
“shell-lacked.”

Turtles everywhere
are proud of you.

Tell the world how
you did it, Leonardo.

Well, the secret to
winning video games is

all in the wrist.

Hey, Leonardo,
want to stop in
for a game or 2?

Forget it.
A couple of pizzas

and a good movie
will do just fine.

[tires screeching]

[horn honking]
Look out, Leonardo!

Whoa, dudes,
check that out!

I guess some
villainesses

just don't know
when to quit.
