Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

You are extraordinary,

my sons.

Unlike anything the world has ever seen.

Bound for greatness.

Destined to protect

the people of New York.

A dark force is growing.

A criminal organization

known as the Foot Clan.

So named because they step over

the good people of this city

with no regard.

Their leader, The Shredder,

will come at you with ferocity.

His Foot Clan will outnumber you.

The people of New York

will look upon you

as their only hope.

Eyes focused.

Elbows locked.

Stance low.

And we begin.

Be one with the blades.

Lead their path.

I know you are eager

to answer their calls,

but your training is not yet complete.

The world below

must remain your home.

As your father, you must trust me.

Patience.

You're not yet ready to go above ground.

But I believe when that day comes

and you rise to the streets,

you are going to be responsible

for amazing things.

Mr. Rivetti!

Mr. Rivetti. Mr. Rivetti, please.

You're the most persistent human

I've ever met in my life, I swear.

Look, I already

told the cops everything, all right?

But maybe there's a detail

you could've forgotten

to share with the police.

Sweetheart,

you don't forget something like that.

Ten guys storm in here, broad daylight,

force us to the ground at gunpoint.

And these are restricted chemicals.

Benzyl cyanide and some

deaminating agents, too.

You don't just buy this stuff,

even on the black market.

Wait, you said deaminating agents,

those are used in genetic research.

Is there anybody else

that's trafficking these

sort of chemicals besides you?

There's one other high-security facility

along this waterfront.

But they don't move

nearly as much cargo as we do.

O'Neil! We're live in 30 minutes!

Come on!

Uh... No, no, no, I'll be right back.

Please don't go anywhere.

I'll be right back.

Come on, you're killing me.

I'm working.

- That's a paying job?

- No.

Because we have an actual paying job.

Look, you don't think that

every crime reporter

in the city isn't trying to work

this Foot Clan story?

I know that, but there is

a new angle on this,

and I am this close to getting it.

I just need a couple of more...

Let's just stick to what we're good at.

Let's stick to what we're

good at. We're good at it.

In five, four...

Hi, guys, this is April O'Neil

from Channel 6 News

and I am here in beautiful New York City

on the first day of spring.

And you know what that means.

It is time to shed

that pesky winter weight.

And here with me today

is celebrity fitness trainer

Harley Pasternak.

- Hi, Harley.

- Good morning, April.

Twenty years I've studied

the animal kingdom.

There are fat pigs, there are fat cows.

There are no fat birds.

All right, I want you

to visualize a sexy seagull.

So we're going to squat down

and flap your wings.

Right over there. Full extension.

Picture you're leaving the cold north

and you're flying. You're migrating.

Four years of journalism school

so that I can do that.

Four years of my life, Vern.

It's embarrassing.

Look, O'Neil, I get it,

you want to be a serious journalist.

I see you sniffing around the newsroom

for the big stories.

But it's also okay

to just give people something

a little lighter. A little... Little froth.

- Froth?

- You know, how,

when you get a coffee,

it's just, like, coffee,

then they put a little froth on it.

It's kind of nice.

Vern, that's foam.

Yes, foam, froth, you get the point.

It's just... It's nice,

it tastes good, it's candy.

You ever heard the expression,

"Never take candy from a baby"?

It's because even babies love candy!
