• Raphael : What's wrong, April?

  April O'Neil : I'm worried about my job. Burne Thompson said I better come up with a big story or...

  Raphael : Or what?

  April O'Neil : Or I won't be around to celebrate my second year.

  [Donatello puts on a disguise] 

  Donatello : Hey, I know what'll cheer you up. Irma, I need you.

  Irma Langinstein : [smiles bashfully]  Ooh!

  Donatello : Easy, Irma. It's only to help me pick up a pizza.

  [Irma sulks] 

• Shredder : [gives a device to Rocksteady]  This will locate the energy source. Now, go!

  Rocksteady : Right away, boss. Um, where are we going to?

  Shredder : To the fission plant! The fission plant!

  [later, Rocksteady and Bebop are fishing at a fish packing plant] 

  Rocksteady : You know, this fishing's the easiest job we ever had.

  Bebop : Yeah.

  [Rocksteady's comlink beeps] 

  Rocksteady : Yeah, boss?

  Shredder : Well? Did you find it?

  Rocksteady : No, boss. We've been fishing here for three hours and we ain't had a nibble.

  Shredder : Fishing? I sent you out for FISSION, not FISHING!

• Shredder : I give you two imbeciles a simple assignment, and you can't even carry it out.

  Bebop : But, boss, uh, something awful happened.

  Krang : What? You lost Rocksteady?

  Bebop : Uh, yeah. That also.

  Shredder : "That also"? What else went wrong?

  Bebop : We didn't catch a single fish.

  Shredder : AAH!

• Donatello : Barada, Nikto, wake up! Oh, great! They snooze and we lose!

• [the alien's toy is about to destroy the world] 

  April O'Neil : I've got an idea.

  [gives her camera to Raphael] 

  April O'Neil : Keep that camera running!

  [April climbs down the hole to the alien's toy] 

  Leonardo : What's she doing?

  Raphael : Ah, with women, you never know.

  [the alien's toy suddenly shuts down] 

  Donatello : It stopped!

  [April climbs back out of the hole] 

  April O'Neil : There. So much for that.

  Donatello : Wha... How'd you do that, April?

  April O'Neil : [pulls out a device]  Simple. Every kid's toy has batteries.

• Krang : You thought you were going to have it all. Instead, you have zip!

  Shredder : Look who's talking. You don't even have hands to fix your equipment.

  Bebop : Uh, let me help, boss.

  [Bebop slams the module door on Shredder's hand] 

  Shredder : Ooowww!

  [Shredder hops around in pain] 

  Krang : Keep that up and you won't have hands, either!

• Donatello : Hey, I just got off the interstellar transmitter with Klaatu. He said they'll return in the year 4989.

  Michelangelo : Whoa! I better start cooking some pizzas!

  Leonardo : Michelangelo, they won't be back for another 3000 years.

  Michelangelo : Why wait 'til the last minute?
