Season 1 Turtle Tracks [1.01] Michaelangelo: [To April] Well, what do you think? April: I think you did those robberies. [She makes a break for the exit but is blocked off by Donatello] Raphael: Ah ah ah ah ah. Wait a minute. Did I miss something here? Ain't you up on current events, lady? We just saved your life. April: The thieves were ninjas, pal. Michaelangelo: Yeah, but were they turtles? April: It doesn't matter. You're still news. Donatello: No way. You put us on TV and every scientist in town will be after us. Raphael: And we spent half our lives crawling around the bottom of a glass bowl. And we ain't going back. Donatello: Which means that you're staying here until we work this out. Michaelangelo: We're not gonna find anything here. Enter The Shredder [1.02] Shredder: I must congratulate you. [enters to meet the turtles] Donatello: It's the same guy we fought last night Shredder: You passed the test with flying colors. Raphael: Test? What test? Shredder: Your hairy little friend knows me as Oroku Saki, but you may call me "The Shredder". Raphael: A kitchen utensil? Shredder: You would be wise to lose your flippant ways if you wish to join the honorable Foot Clan. Leonardo: Why should we want to do that? Shredder: Because it was I who made you what you are today. If not for me, Hamato Yoshi would never have left Japan. I followed him to this country, where I gained my advanced technology, including my rare experimental mutagen. It was I who caused you to mutate into your humanoid form. You owe everything to me! Don't deny your destiny. Join me. Raphael: Does the phrase "go suck a lemon" hold any meaning to you? A Thing About Rats [1.04] Splinter: What's a matter, April? [The Turtles have tied up Baxter Stockman] Michelangelo: You wanna clue us in on what this is? Baxter: It's the remote control for my mousers. Leonardo: Do you have any more of these "mousers"? Baxter: No, but the Shredder has. Hundreds of them. Leonardo: Where is the Shredder now? Baxter: I'll never talk. Raphael: You better. Or else I'm going to get 'Sai-castic'. [Raphael pulls out his sai and intimidates Baxter.] Baxter: [He talks in a terrified rapid pace] He's in an old mansion on Green Street near Kent. He's got a master control for all the mousers there. Raphael: [Sheathes his sai] See? Nothing beats cutting wit. Hot Rodding Teenagers from Dimension X [1.03] [Bebop and Rocksteady are fighting Krang's stone warriors] Shredder: Stop, stop! STOP! [Bebop, Rocksteady and Krang's stone warriors stop firing] Rocksteady: Oh, we was starting to have fun. Shredder: Shut up! You are Krang's stone warriors are you not? General Tragg: Yeah. So? Shredder: There is something I must show you. General Tragg: We gonna catch those kids. [The Turtles are battling with the Neutrinos on their star mobiles. Donatello is getting his shell scraped during the scuffle] Donatello: Hey, cut it out. You're ruining my finish. April: You got 'em! Who are they? Let's interrogate them! Michelangelo: It's okay April, they're cool. Dask: Cool? Daddio, we are frozen! [April is reading "The Hare and the Tortoise" to Raphael, Michelangelo and Donatello, who are in their beds] April: And as he crossed the finish line, the tortoise realised that slow and steady does won the race, for he had beaten the hare. Raphael: I love that story. Michelangelo: Read it again, April. April: But I've read it five times. Donatello: Just once more. Ahhh [falls asleep]] April: [steps away and chuckles as Leonardo comes in cleaning his katana] Just a bunch of sleepyheads. Leonardo: They'll need their rest. Because tomorrow, we're going to find The Shredder and finish him. [sheathes his katana] Shredder & Splintered [1.05] Krang: Now, wretched reptiles, you will face... the wrath of Krang! Michelangelo: Wasn't that the name of a movie? Leonardo: I don't believe I saw it. Raphael: And I don't believe I'm seeing this! Michaelangelo: Uh-oh. It's that Retro Mutant Thing-of-a-bob. Donatello: He's gonna use it to turn us into ordinary turtles Raphael: Well, gang, it looks like it's back to the ol' pet store for us. Shredder: No, far from it. Tonight I dine on turtle soup. Shredder: What the devil happened? Where the devil are we? Dimension X? No! Krang: At last, I can conquer my home dimension. Shredder: But I don't want to conquer this place! I want to conquer Earth! Krang: In Dimension X, I am absolute master. You will do my bidding from now on. Shredder: The Shredder takes orders from no one! Krang: We shall see, Oroku Saki.
