"He's in position." "[CROWD CHEERING SOFTLY]" "And it's" "[ANNOUNCER] We interrupt the National Tiddlywinks Finals to bring you a classic episode of the '50s sitcom Look Out for Daddy!" "Oh, man, another rerun?" "That's all they show on TV anymore." "Yeah, and we've watched all these rented videos, like, 20 times." "And I've been practicing the same ninja moves all day." "Hey, what's Donatello been up to?" "He's awfully quiet." "I thought you'd never ask." "Check out my latest invention, guys." "Fellow turtles, introducing the automatic pizza-dough maker." "[MICHELANGELO] Whoa!" "Radical machine, dude!" "A little flour." "A little water." "Now watch." "[WHIRRING]" "Hmm..." "Sounds like a flywheel needs adjusting." "[YELLING]" "I don't know about pizza-making, but you've got a heck of a secret weapon there, Donatello." "[KRANG] Oh, why won't the master engines move us anywhere?" "[SHREDDER] Because all of the Technodrome's tracks are embedded in that hardened lava, Krang!" "[KRANG] We must get off this mountain somehow." "Uh, would it help if we went outside and pushed?" "[CRASH]" "I don't like the sound of that one bit." "Oh, no." "[BEBOP] I know what the problem with this big thing is." "What?" "It's broken." "Well, obviously it's broken, you moron!" "The question is can we fix it?" "No, we'll have to make a whole new one." "But these shafts are made of solid rigidium, the hardest metal in the universe and the rarest." "So?" "Let's just go out and buy some." "On this miserable dump of a planet?" "Don't be ridiculous." "Besides, it's more fun to steal some." "Somewhere in this vast universe, there must be some rigidium we can steal." "[COMPUTER BEEPING] Bingo!" "There's a huge concentrated quantity of rigidium on Earth!" "We must activate the trans-dimensional portal so you can go to Earth and get it." "Oh, boy." "Earth, my favorite place for doing damage." "[CHUCKLES]" "Maybe we'll even run into those stinkin' Turtles!" "April, the Lofty Tower is having its grand-opening at noon and I want you to cover it." "I won't let you down, Burne." "Now just a darn minute!" "I should be the one to cover that opening!" "The way you've been messing up stories lately, you're lucky you still have a job, Vernon!" "Isn't the Loft Tower supposed to be the tallest in the world?" "Gee, I hope it's safe." "I'm sure it is, Irma." "Hey, hey, hey!" "Think of what a story it would make if, by some weird fluke, it happens to fall over!" "[LAUGHING]" "I--I changed my mind." "You deserve the story, April." "[KRANG] Now, to open the dimensional gateway, and send you to Earth." "[EXPLOSION]" "Oh, what's that?" "[SHREDDER] What the devil is it?" "We'd better investigate." "It looks like a big egg." "Too bad we ain't got no bacon." "[BEBOP] Uh, I think it's hatching!" "[SCREECHING]" "[GIGGLING]" "Oh, no." "It's...a zipp." "Uh, gee." "[LAUGHING]" "He's kinda cute." "You fool!" "That's the most dreaded creature in all the galaxies." "[SHREDDER] That little thing?" "We must get out of here before it destroys us all!" "Wee!" "[BURBLING]" "Safe!" "I only hope it didn't follow us." "[ZIPP] Wee!" "No!" "Wee!" "Zip-ow!" "Ziiip." "[MAKING "ZIPPING" NOISES]" "Bebop, Rocksteady, stop that creature!" "Wee!" "That thing is going to eat the entire Technodrome if it isn't stopped!" "Worse than that." "You haven't seen the half of what that monster can do." "[KRANG] Stop it!" "We must dispose of this little beast somehow." "How?" "The only way to get rid of a zipp is to" "I've got it." "I've got it." "We'll send the zipp to Earth." "Then, while they're all trying to stop it, you and the punks can find the rigidium and steal it with no resistance." "Good riddance, you little monster!" "[BURBLING]" "[SNIFFING]" "Whoa!" "[SCREAMING]" "Ew, patooie!" "[BANGING]" "[MICHELANGELO] I thought we'd never get that gizmo shut down." "[LAUGHING] Yeah." "Let's just hope it never gets started up again." "Guys...do you hear something?" "No." "But as soon as I finish cleaning up this mess," "Donatello's gonna hear plenty!" "[DISTANT BANGING] No, wait!" "I hear it, too!" "Hey!" "Maybe we've got mice!" "Here in the sewers?" "Don't be ridiculous." "It's coming from over there!" "Well, what do ya know?" "Heh-heh..." "An angry rain barrel." "No." "There's something in it!" "Well, that means someone's gonna have to turn it over and..." "[GULPS] ..." "look inside?" "Ah, good thinkin', pal!" "Let us know what you find." "Uh...hello!" "Anybody in there?" "[BURBLING]" "Well...here goes..." "[GIBBERING]" "[SMOOCHES] [GIGGLING] Zip zip!" "Hey hey, Michelangelo!" "I think it likes you!" "Yeah, but what the heck is it?" "Perhaps Master Splinter will know." "[SLURPING]" "I have no idea where this creature could have come from." "Never in my life have I seen anything like it." "[MICHELANGELO] It sure is cute!" "[BURBLES] [CHOMPS]" "And hungry!" "[BURBLING] Zip zip!" "[LAUGHING]" "[DONATELLO] Hey!" "That thing ate our VCR!" "And our rental tape was in it!" "Oh, think of the late fees." "[CHOMPING]" "Okay." "Look here, Leadbelly!" "You can't just...!" "[CHOMPING]" "I can see this is gonna be one of those days." "It seems to only eat metal." "Ooo!" "[BURBLE, CHOMP]" "Hey!" "My machine!" "[BOTH BURBLING]" "You've gotta be puttin' me on!" "Come on!" "We've gotta stop them!" "[CRASHING, GROANING]" "They're heading for the street!" "What do you suppose made it divide in two?" "Donatello, was there anything special about that machine of yours?" "No...except that it was entirely made of copper." "Then it's a safe bet that every time those things eat copper, they double." "And how much copper do you suppose they'll find up there?" "[DONATELLO] Well, there's copper everywhere!" "Telephone wires..." "plumbing... anything made of brass or bronze, like doorknobs or statues or..." "Oh, no!" "Come on!" "[MULTIPLE BURBLING]" "Fellow Turtles..." "I think we've got a bit of a problem on our hands." "[BURBLING, CHOMPING]" "Aw, they're gonna eat this city alive if we don't do something!" "[SCREECH] [BOUNCE] [LAUGHING]" "Yeah." "And every time they eat copper, there's two more of 'em!" "I'm beginning to get an idea where that first little guy came from!" "Someplace like maybe..." "Dimension X?" "Bingo!" "They've practically got Shredder's fingerprints all over them!" "[SQUEAKS]" "[GASPS] You can't catch the little motor-mouths!" "And there's more of 'em every minute!" "What we need is a plan!" "Have you got one?" "Nope." "I was hoping you had one!" "Dudes, I say we split up!" "[DONATELLO] Why?" "Well, 'cause that's what they're doing!" "At this point, anything's worth a try!" "Let's go!" "Oh, my antiques!" "I'm ruined!" "♪♪ [DANCE]" "[CHOMPING, BURBLING]" "Well, at least those little pests are good for something!" "This is not working!" "Well, what do you expect, dude?" "There's four of us and 80 bazillion of them!" "This is a job for the Department of Pest Control!" "We found the first one." "We're responsible for all this!" "And we need a plan." "All we can do is follow them and study them!" "Maybe we can find something that will stop them!" "Well, it's not a plan." "But it's all we've got." "I knew I should have taken up dentistry instead of nin-jitsu!" "[BURBLING, CHOMPING]" "[KRANG] Excellent!" "Those Zipps are tearing the city apart!" "The path is clear now for you to steal the rigidium we need!" "But how will I find it?" "Use the transport vehicle's built-in metal detector." "I set it to seek out -- what else -- rigidium!" "Now go!" "Gee, I thought Krang said the path was clear for us!" "[SHREDDER] We've landed in the middle of rush hour!" "[BEBOP] We'll be stuck here all day, boss!" "Then we'll just have to solve the city's traffic problem!" "[SCREAMS]" "[EVERYBODY SCREAMING]" "Out of my way!" "[ROCKSTEADY] Let somebody else get through, will ya?" "[DONATELLO] They're heading into the Natural History Museum!" "[CHOMPING, BURBLING]" "Hey!" "Lay off those mineral samples!" "[BURPING]" "Huh?" "Where'd he go?" "Now that's going too far!" "All right, you little dudes!" "Knock it off!" "[SILENCE]" "What you're doing is bad." "Wrong-ola!" "[SAD BURBLING]" "What do you know?" "It worked!" "I wonder if this has something to do with your saving that first one from the barrel?" "[MICHELANGELO] Come on!" "We're clearing out of here!" "[BURBLING]" "[HORNS HONKING]" "[SHREDDER] According to the metal detector, there's a huge shaft of rigidium running all the way to the top of this building!" "That spire on top should be ample for our needs." "Well, yeah!" "But, uh... how we gonna get all the way up there?" "[SHREDDER] By shifting gears into vertical!" "[ENGINE ROARS]" "[MAN] And so it was, through the discovery of the new miracle metal, rigidium, that I, Donald J. Lofty, could build Lofty Tower." "A huge shaft of rigidium runs through the building, connecting here, in the central support spire." "Oh, boy." "This is the longest speech I've ever heard." "No, just the boringest." "And now, the mayor and I will cut the ribbon, and proclaim Lofty Tower to be" "Eeyagh!" "Nobody move!" "[GASPS]" "We're takin' that rigid-dad-din-da-dum." "[PANTING] All this running around has me bushed." "I need something to eat." "[RUMBLING]" "A-reee!" "[CHOMP]" "Ree!" "Zippie!" "Yum!" "Yum!" "Yum!" "Boy, they must really like chocolate!" "It's probably pretty scarce in Dimension X." "Hey!" "Do you realize that's the first thing they've eaten that wasn't metal?" "Let's try it again." "[MACHINE RUMBLES]" "Yah yah!" "[CHOMP]" "Did you see that?" "They reunited!" "But how will we get all of them to do it?" "It'll take a miracle!" "No!" "Just a really big chocolate bar!" "Come on!" "April!" "What are we going to do?" "I've got to contact the Turtles somehow!" "[SHREDDER] Now to cut down the spire!" "No!" "You can't!" "Every girder in the building connects to that thing!" "If you cut it off, the whole building will fall!" "That will be your problem!" "[BEEP] [ROAR]" "[DONATELLO] Ajax Industrial Candy Foundry." "Makers of the world's largest chocolates!" "Just what we're looking for!" "Hey!" "The Teenage Mutant Ninja Frogs!" "Turtles!" "I'm one of your biggest fans!" "Thanks!" "We'll send you an autographed photo later." "But right now, we need that candy bar!" "[PULLEYS SQUEAKING]" "Now to unwrap it!" "[DISTANT YIPPING]" "Here they come." "Go get it, fellas!" "[CHOMPING]" "[YIPPING]" "Whoa!" "You found something those dudes really dig!" "[RAFAEL] Yeah, and I bet they don't even save us a bite!" "There's more to it than that." "Watch!" "[MICHELANGELO] Whoa!" "They're getting it together!" "Uh-oh!" "[MONSTER GROWL]" "I'm beginning to think this was a big mistake." "A big mistake?" "I'd call it a King Kong-sized mistake!" "[GROWLING]" "[GROWLING]" "Zip!" "Zip!" "[BURPS]" "Zip!" "[BURP]" "Boy!" "Doesn't that guy ever get full?" "[DONATELLO] Unless we can find a way to shrink him down somehow, we're sunk!" "Hey, dudes!" "I saw one of 'em shrink!" "You did?" "Yeah!" "At the museum!" "It was eating mineral samples, and then suddenly it shrank and vanished!" "One of the minerals must not have agreed with it!" "Yeah!" "But which one?" "[LEONARDO] We've got to find out!" "[BURPS]" "In a few minutes, this rigidium spire will be ours!" "And this whole building will fall!" "We've gotta call the Turtles!" "But how?" "By keep Bebop distracted, while you call the Turtles on my Turtle-com!" "How are you going to distract Bebop?" "By using my journalistic skills!" "Move it on back, April O'Neil!" "Come on, Bebop!" "How about an interview?" "Hey, I'm not fallin' for any... interview?" "Sure!" "An interview with a clever, dashing, uh...person like you would be a real scoop!" "[CHUCKLES] It would?" "I'm sure my viewers would be very interested in what you have to say." "Well, yeah!" "I am pretty interesting." "Ask me my opinion on comic books!" "[MICHELANGELO] This is the case he ate the ore samples from." "And chances are, the last one he ate is the one that made him shrink!" "Pyrite, quartz, iron, titanium, ballonium...rigidium!" "Oh, great." "That's one of the rarest metals on Earth!" "Where the heck are we gonna find enough to" "[Turtle-com rings]" "[IRMA] Come in, guys!" "It's Irma!" "I'm at the Lofty Tower." "Shredder's here." "He's cutting down the top spire of the tower, and if you don't stop him, the whole building's gonna fall over." "He's cutting off the top of the tower?" "Why?" "It's made out of some metal he needs." "Something called..." "rigidium?" "Rigidium?" "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" "Pizza?" "No!" "We've got to get to Loft Tower!" "But what about the monster?" "Hold the phone!" "A bunch of little ones obeyed Michelangelo!" "Yeah!" "'Cause I helped the first little dude out of the barrel!" "Then let's hope it still remembers!" "[ALL] Go, Green Machine!" "Uh, so that basically sums up my view on world affairs." "Now about this weather we're having..." "[SHREDDER] Bebop, quit fooling around over there!" "We're almost ready!" "[METALLIC CREAKING]" "Krang!" "Open the dimensional portal!" "[GRINDING ROAR]" "Push!" "[METAL CREAKS]" "[RUMBLING]" "[LOFTY] Oh, no!" "The building's gonna fall!" "[SHREDDER] Now to Dimension X, with our prize!" "[RAFAEL] Not so fast, Chrome-Dome!" "[SHREDDER] Oh, no!" "[BUILDING RUMBLES]" "We gotta prop this place up!" "Ziiiiip!" "[RUMBLING, GROANING]" "[APPLAUSE]" "[MICHELANGELO] There's some metal munchies for ya, dude!" "[SLURPS, ROARS]" "[CHOMPS, BURPS]" "[CHEERING]" "Ziiiip!" "[RAFAEL] Grab him!" "[MICHELANGELO] Hang on, dude!" "[REVVING ENGINE]" "Wee!" "Zip zip zip zip!" "Wee-ee-ee-ee-ee!" "Rah!" "Yum yum yum yum--!" "Stop him!" "He'll ruin us!" "[RAFAEL] Boy, we sure fixed Shredder's hash, huh, guys?" "Yeah!" "Now that over-eater will be his problem!" "And we'll never have to see one of those little creatures again!" "Yeah!" "It's enough to make you appreciate how boring things were before!" "But ya know, all the same," "I'm gonna miss those little dudes!" "Not me!" "I'm gonna forget about 'em, and get back to my practicing!" "Huh?" "[BURBLING, GIGGLING]" "Wee!" "[ALL] Oh, no!" "I think I'll check into a motel until this blows over!" "Closed-Captioned By J.R. Media Services, Inc." "Burbank, CA"
