Come in, anybody.

This is Donatello calling
from Planet Earth.

Donatello, how much longer
are you gonna send
messages to outer space?

Until someone answers.

Donatello's discovery
of a new Turtle Nebula

was a great moment
for reptiles everywhere,
my students.

Master Splinter
is right.

Imagine if he does
find other intelligent
turtle life out there.

The important thing is,
will they have pizza?

Come in,
Turtle Nebula.
Come in.

[Michelangelo]
Donatello,

this is the Great Turtle.

Did you hear that?
Amazing!

I bring you the secret
of universal

happiness and contentment.

Tell us,
O Great Turtle.
What is it?

What else, dude?

Double cheese
and heavy on
the anchovies.

Had you going there
for a bit, didn't I?

I sure hope I find
a few intelligent
turtles in outer space,

because there sure aren't
too many of 'em
here on Earth.

It seems your prank
has caused Donatello
much pain.

I hope it is not
a lasting one.

Perfect.

Boy, I'll show
those guys.

They probably would've laughed
at Einstein's theory of
neutronic thermaziods too.

Now, all I have to do
is line up this transmitter

with the Turtle Nebula,

right between
Cancer the crab
and Pisces the fish.

Calling Turtle Nebula.
Come in, please.

It looks like
something's coming in.

Whoa! Now,
that's what I call
great reception.

[alien language]

Uh, what's that again?

[sniffing]

[alien language]

[chuckles]
Sorry, old bean.
Forgot the translator gadget.

Algernon's the name.
You can call me Algie.

Well, I'm Donatello,

and you can call me
totally baffled.

You broke my flimilfarb,
and I'm counting on you
to fix it.

Me, fix your,
uh, what?

My spaceship.
It's completely
out of order,

and it's all
your fault.

Now, in you go.
There's a good chap.

[clears throat]
Uh, you wouldn't
happen to have a copy

of the owner's manual,
would you?

All right!
We're ready to
rock and roll!

But mostly roll.

Maybe we should wait
till Donatello finishes
his new pizza machine.

No way, dude.
let him conquer
outer space.

I'm gonna break
the home-pizza barrier.

That's the trouble
with people nowadays.

They depend on
machines too much.

Skill, craftsmanship--

that's what it's
all abou...
[yelling]

Is this what's meant
by “family-size”?

If you could just
tell me where
the engine is.

Do I look like a common
warp-drive mechanic?

All I do is steer
the ruddy thing.

Well, what do you know?
I found the hood release.

I think I found
the trou...
[yelling]

[groans]

I'm late for
a job interview
at Intergalactic U.

I really need
that professorship,

now that the missus and I
have 6 new eggs to care for.

Like I said,
compadres,

frozen pizza is
the happening thing.

Cool it, Michelangelo.
We want to watch April.

This is April O'Neil,
Channel 6 Action News,

with an inside look
at Hiram Greltch--

or “Hostile Hiram,”
as the unfortunate victims
of his takeovers call him.

Not satisfied with owning
every TV station
in the city,

Hostile Hiram has
now set his sights
on our own Channel 6.

Well, we have 2 words
for Mr. Greltch--

“fat chance.”

[screams]

What's going on?
We'd better
find out, fast!

[April screams]
Aah!

Algie, where are you?
Here I am.

Wow.
A super chameleon.

A screaming female
always sets me off.

We space lizards
are a sensitive bunch.

Oh, my gosh.
April!

[April screams]

Stay away from me.

Just who do you big apes
think you are, anyhow?

We don't like all that
stuff you been sayin'
about our boss, Mr. Greltch.

Yeah, and we're
gonna fix it

so you don't say
nothin' else.

[screams]

[man chuckles]
Bye-bye, sweetheart.

[screaming]

That's definitely
April's scream.

I recognize
the register.

Oh, please
don't hurt us!
At least don't hurt me.

For goodness sake,
Vernon, show
a little dignity!

I'll show them anything
they want, as long as
they don't hurt me.

Oh, I think the poor wimp
is comin' unglued.

Let's fix that,
shall we?

Oh, I beg of you,
please don't sh**t!

Oh, you didn't say
“pretty please.”

[shouting]
What have you done?

Hey, don't knock it, pal.
That's super-sticky glue.

You're gonna be a lot
more together now.

[laughing]

[man]
Naughty, naughty.
[screams]

[door slams open]
Hold it
right there, punks.

Donatello!
And who's that?

Oh, this is Algie.
We'll save the
introductions for later.

[laughing]
Hey, get a load
of the security patrol.

A turtle and a lizard.
What's the matter?

Can't Channel 6
afford Dobermans?

[both laughing]

[confused chattering]

Take that,
you inconsiderate
ruffians.

[both shouting]

Wow. Algie has
mind energy.

[shouting continues]

[crash]

Okay, turtle, I'm gonna
gum you up good!

Hy-yah!

[screams]
Donatello, look out!

Yuck!
Oh, no!

Put me down,
you big gorilla!

[Donatello]
Oh, no! We got to
catch up with April!

[Algie]
Still upper lip, old chap.
Won't be a moment.

Let's not forget Vernon.
As you wish.

[Donatello]
Now, that's what
I call a neat trick.

Thank you.
It's all in
the wrist, old boy.

[Michelangelo]
Dude, can't you
go any faster?

Maybe we should
get out and push.

We won't be any good
to April if we're
in an accident.

Let's go, Algie.

Great! There's
our way down.

And there's
your friend.

Goin' down!

[screaming]
Hey, you'd better
camouflage yourself.

You know,
a 4-foot-tall lizard
and all that.

Oh, I see.
But a 4-foot-tall
turtle is fine.

Hey, please
don't argue.
Just do it.

Oh, all right.

[gasps]
[body thuds]

[whistles]
[tires screech]

Follow that car!

You look kinda
green, pal.

I hope you ain't gonna be
sick on my new upholstery.

[growls]

All right, that does it.
No dogs allowed in my cab.

All right.
Have it your way.

Please, mister!
Promise not to change
me into anything,

and I won't
turn on the meter.

I'll think about it.
Now, follow that car.

[cries out]

[all screaming]
[horn blaring]

Please, mister,
you promised.

No more
crazy animals.

Look out!
They're getting away!

They've thrown up
some kind of force field.

Yeah, see?
You'll never get
in there now.

Says who?
The whole building
belongs to

Hostile Hiram Greltch,
and he don't like strangers.

Try a little of your
space magic on it.

Yaah! Any more
suggestions,
old bean?

Well, there's
the Channel 6 building.

Oh, man,
I don't believe it!

[Michelangelo]
Mega-bummer.
It's cop city.

[Raphael]
We'll never get
past them.

We'll have to get inside
if we're gonna find April.

Got it, dudes.
I'll put on a mask

and make like
a reporter.

Ciao for now.

It's okay.
Press.
[triggers c*ck]

Whoa!
[engine revving]

Okay, so I put on
the wrong mask.

Are you sure your spaceship
laser cannons will penetrate
that force field?

As you Earth chaps would say,
a piece of cake.

We've got to get back
to the Channel 6 roof
where your spaceship is.

If you don't mind,
I'll do it my own way.

Your spaceship is gone!
I had no idea
this was a tow-away zone.

Greltch's th*gs
must've taken it,
along with April.

Dear boy,
do you realize
what will happen

if anyone tries
to take it apart
to examine it?

I'm afraid to ask,
but... what?

It will blow
this entire planet

into the next
dimension!

[laughing, snorting]

By this time tomorrow,

I shall be
the new owner
of Channel 6.

You're wasting
your time, Greltch.

The owners will never sell,
especially to you.

[chuckling]
If they don't sell,

you will pay for
their pigheadedness.

You're calling them
pigheaded? Have you looked
in the mirror lately?

[stifled chuckle]

Even those Martians
you hired can't
help you now.

I found this spaceship
on the Channel 6 roof,

and as soon as
I get it working,

I'm going into
outer space

and buy up their
airwaves too.

All I have to do
is find out

how this inter-dimensional
kiddy car works.

[Donatello]
Well, at least we know
for sure where April is.

The trouble is,
we'll never get through
that force field.

And if this chap Greltch
tries to take my
spaceship apart,

your entire planet
is done for.

Hmm.
These things

are more complicated
than I thought.

Too bad.
There go your plans

to take over every
TV station in the universe.

Don't count me out yet.

Hiram Greltch didn't
get where he is

by taking “no”
for an answer.

Keep drilling.

Your constables
seem to be departing.

And that means
there's no one
in the Channel 6 studio.

And that gives me
an idea.

These things always
seem to lead to trouble.

Listen, Greltch's
force field has to
be created

with cathode rays,
right?
“Cathode”?

Yeah, the rays inside
your picture tube
in your television set.

We don't have television.
We have feel-avision.

Well, whatever.
Come on, Algie.

Oh, you Earthlings
are so impulsive.

So you see,
if the force field is
made up of cathode rays,

it can be magnified
with an electron
photo-multiplier.

Don't you get it?
Not a single syllable,
old chap.

Uh, Algie, what did you
say you were a professor
of, anyway?

I happen to be my planet's
leading authority
on drivelglats.

“Drivelglats”?

Tiddlywinks?

“Tiddlywinks”?
What a silly name for
such a serious pastime.

What I'm trying
to say is,

with the force field
surrounding Greltch's
huge picture window,

it's like he's living
inside a TV tube.

Meaning?
Meaning, we're gonna
put together

an interesting
television show

for his viewing
enjoyment.

Uh, Aliens from
50 Million B.C.,

Uh...
Ooh!

Invasion of
the Radioactive Rats.

Perfect.
Algie, it's
payback time

for Hostile
Hiram Greltch.

[Michelangelo]
We've covered the entire city,
and no sign of April.

I'm certain she's
at Greltch's penthouse,
but there's no way in.

Tell us something
we don't know.

I wasn't telling you.
I was telling our viewers.

Maybe we can
get an update.

[Michelangelo]
Whoa, that dude
sure looks familiar.

[Leonardo]
He should.
It's Donatello.

We interrupt this program
to bring you the following
emergency message.

Please, Algie,
you've got to do it.

Must I?
I'm too modest

to change in front
of 40 million people.

Oh, please.

Do it for
a fellow reptile.

Well, if you insist.

How's that?
Perfect.

Uh, with me is
the numero uno warlord
of the Turtle Nebula,

and is he ever
ticked off.

Tell the folks
about it, warlord.

[roars]

Oh, look, boss.
They're making
a special announcement.

Boy, they sure got
my attention.

Idiots.
What's that got
to do with me?

Hostile Hiram Greltch
has stolen my spaceship,

along with
a female Earthling!

Uh, it sounds like
it's got a lot
to do with you.

Whoa, dudes,
who is that?

I'll bet it's some
plan of Donatello's
to free April.

Right. Some fake
monster to scare
the real one.

Unless they are
both return unharmed
in the next 5 minutes,

there will be
interplanetary w*r!

Boss, you'd better do
what that thing says.

Nonsense.

Are you wimps
afraid of some actor

in a Martian costume?

That ain't no actor, boss.
That's the real thing.

[roaring]

[Greltch]
Don't just stand there.

Help me put
this spaceship
back together.

And hurry.
We've only got


Better make that


I've seen this before.

[chuckles]
The Invasion of
the Radioactive Rats.

I certainly hope
you're right, old bean.

Trust me.
If there's one thing
I know about, it's sewers.

Oh, dear.
What's wrong, Algie?

[Algie]
I'm afraid our entrance
is riveted shut.

Hey, what about that
mind power of yours?

Oh, that?
It seems like such
a showoff-y thing to do.

Well, swallow your pride
and let 'er rip.

Hey, you guys
hear something?

[all exclaiming]

Find that
fuse box, fast.

It's the only way
to deactivate
the force field.

“Fuse box”?
You know,

that thing
you turned into
up on the roof.

You mean, this?
Exactly.

Get that
turtle Martian!

Whoa-oa!
Not so easy,
is it?

Fuse box,
fuse box.
Whoa-oa!

I say, my good man,
would you know where
the fuse box is?

That's all right.
Don't get up.

[fighting noises]
Hmm, let me see.

[shouting]

Hurry, you pinheads.

We've only got


Howdy, folks.

Looking for a good used car?
Come on down to
Clem's Clunkers.

Uh-oh.
The film festival
is over.

A commercial,

in the middle of
a Martian invasion?

There's something
fishy about this.

You need to work on
your landings, pal.
This must be it.

Have you got that fuse box
figured out yet, Algie?

[thud]
Whoops! Ow!
I guess you have.

[man]
Hey, boss,
what happened?

[Greltch]
Can't you see
the lights went out?

[all]
Turtle power!

Okay, Greltch,
your collecting
days are over!

Yeah.
Now we're gonna start
collecting things, dude!

Starting with
our friend, April.

My mean, green
heroes!

What a relief. I thought
I was gonna have to cover this
whole story sitting down.

Ah, time to
cut our losses.
Follow me.

What's your
hurry, boys?

Why don't you
stick around?

What a thrill!

Usually only the Turtles
get to do things like this.

[all clamoring]

Perfect timing,
Donatello.

Oh, I say,
we seem to be
a bit late.

Leapin' lizards!
The warlord is real!

Oh, guys,
this is Algie.

Uh, well,
I'll explain later.

[siren wailing]
Uh-oh.
It's the boys in blue.

[Leonardo]
That means it's time for
the boys in green to split.

Allow me,
April.

With pleasure.

Come on, Algie.
We'll haul your spaceship
up in a minute.

A blimp?
How primitive.
But charming.

Can I drop you
somewhere, April?

Did you have to
use the word “drop”?

[chuckles]
You mean this thing

is gonna sit in
our living room for
the rest of eternity?

Well, I'm afraid so,
unless we can find
some gas for it.

I already told you--
not gas, grutnip.

Well, yeah, but we
can't help you until you
tell us what “grutnip” is.

Grutnip is,
well, grutnip.

Come and get it, amigos.

Fresh from Vinnie's.

[sniffing]
What's that odor
I detect?

Oh, we call it pizza.
And we call it grutnip!

There's enough here
to take me home
at twice warp speed.

Uh, but... but...
What generous
chaps you are.

Cheerio, Earthlings!
I'm off!

Oh, he's gone,
just like that.

And with all
our pizza.
[laughing]

Not all our pizza.

Just in case
I decide to take
the scenic route home.

Ta-ta!

Hey, wait...
[stammering]

He took my last
piece of pizza.

[chuckling]

That's the way
it goes!
