Tales of the Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles:

Okay, so I think I messed up.

The Mutant Battle Arena
was run by Kitsune

and her weird street g*ng,
the Purple Dragons.

But it's not my fault!
I mean, the crowds loved me,

I got to fight Rock, Bebop,
even Mondo.

It was the best! My brothers
were trying to figure out

where I was going,
them and Pigeon Pete. Ugh.

He's the worst. Don't get me
started on him. So smarmy. Ugh.

Who knew that Kitsune
was using mind-control devices,

or that I'd end up having
to fight my own brothers?

Not me. Pfft.
I'll tell you that.

Ha-ha, okay. I know you guys
are all mad at me or whatever,

but joke's over.

Leo? Mikey? Come on!

Will one of you just say
something already?

You're being super creepy.
For real.

What are you even doing?
Look, I'm not gonna fight you...

[Kitsune] But this is what
you wanted, wasn't it, Turtle?

You wanted to fight.

What? No!

Not them! I never wanted...

This is you!
You haven't changed at all!

Are you gonna try and sell
my brothers too, huh?

Like you did to me
the first time we met?

What did you do to them?

I'm simply giving you
what you wanted.

Turtles, fight... Raphael.

[Knox] This is so fire, yo!

You got all four Turtles!

How'd you do it?

The technology we acquired

utilizes brain waves
specific to mutants.

We affix a control disc,

and the mutants become more...

suggestible.

And they shut them up,

which was an unexpected bonus.

Without the sarcasm please.

My love of fighting
and glorification of violence

has ruined everything and put my
entire family in danger! Happy?

I just need help getting their
dumb controller things off.

I'm not strong enough to fight
all of them. I need a plan.

Hmm...

"Strong enough."

What was it
that Hun fellow said to you?

That dummy?
He said I'm not swole.

Talkin' about my trainer. Pfft.

you've been seeing a trainer?

was trying to give you

Spuds.

I'm gonna venture out on a wing

I am a champion.

It is! My momma

That's messed up, man.

That's not what we're doing.
We're not cops.

I will start over. You have
the right to remain silent.

you got the wrong guy.

your trainer.

Kitsune wanted mutants,
and you just fell into my lap.

How could you do this to me?

We were workout bros!

And we still are.

Just 'cause I sold you out
doesn't mean we can't repair.

Okay, yeah, I'm throwin' him
off the roof now.

-Nice knowin' you, Spuds.

Wait, wait! Mr. Spuds, please.

Raphael's self-destructive

-Hey!
-You have to tell us something

that'll save you
from being flung into the abyss.

-[gulps]
-For instance, I'd love to know

more about
these mind-control devices.

My anger isn't toxic!

There's a briefcase! Kitsune's
got it, the controller's inside.

They don't work right though.

Those mutants are gonna get
their brains melted.

She's trying to sell 'em all
before it happens.

Wait, what?!

We gotta go get those things
off our friends, like now!

having my cerebellum liquefied.
