1x04 - New Friend, Old Enemy

[grunting]

[dramatic music]

Master Shredder.

I trust that my greatest pupil
has been using that time wisely.

I have assembled an army of ninjas.
The Foot Clan awaits your orders.

Excellent.

Because I've discovered
an old enemy in New York.

Hamato Yoshi.

Hamato Yoshi?
Alive?

And he is training ninjas of his own.



Finally, I will finish what I started
all those years ago.

I want them all wiped out.

- I will not fail you, master.
- I know.

But to be certain,
you will work alongside Xever.

I don't need any help.
Especially from this street rat.

- Are you sure, rich boy?
- Anytime you want to test me...

I am not interested
in your petty rivalry!

Xever is familiar with the
dark underbelly of this city.

You will work together.

Don't worry, master Shredder.

We will find Splinter and his
disciples and destroy them.

Hah!

Hiyah!

Yehee!

Ha-ha!

Top that, turtle chumps!

All right, guys.
Check this out.

- Whoa!
- Cute, kiddies.

[screaming]

[grunting]

[groaning]
[laughing]

Hey, what was that?
You didn't do any flips.

Oops.
[creaking]

[suspenseful music]

[kitten mews]

Don't give up, Leo.
You might actually win this fight.

Aww!
It's a little kitty.

- And its name is...
- Mittens!

Good guess.
Wait, who said that?

Mittens?

I think that's the owner.

- What are you doing?
- Whoa, hey!

Mikey, wait!

What? I'm returning Mittens
to her owner.

Are you an idiot? Wait...
let me rephrase that.

- You're an idiot!
- You can't show yourself to a human.

Why not?

Because they'll freak the
heck out, that's why not.

No, they won't.
I'm not so scary.

You're an ugly, green mutant
armed with ninja weapons.

Look, this guy's
gonna see that I'm just

a regular, cat-loving dude like him.

Next thing you know, we'll be best buds.
This is gonna be awesome!

- No!
- Don't!

- Wait!
- Mittens!

Hi. Here's your...

[screams]
Ugly, green mutant freak!

- But I got your cat!
- Help! He's got my cat!

Dude, chill! I'm just...

Aah!
[cat squealing]

[screams]

Someone want to help me with this?

[cat snarling]

All: No.

[cat snarling]

[cat screeching]

[crash]

Face it.
Humans will never understand you.

Heck, we don't even understand you.

[sighs]

Yeah.

[gasps]
But I bet that guy would!

Chris Bradford.
The martial arts superstar.

With a chain of dojos
across the country.

He's your soul mate?

- We've got so much in common.
- What if you stop standing like that?

We'll have a little less
in common, but still a lot.

And look, he's in town
for a Martial Arts Expo.

Maybe he'll show me his secret kata,
"the death dragon."

And I'll show him my secret
kata, "the secret kata."

- Catchy.
- Check it out.

[shouting]

[whoops]

- But don't tell anyone you saw that.
- No problem.

Face it, Mikey, Chris Bradford
is the last person on Earth

that would be friends with you.

Well, tied for last,
with everyone else on Earth.

[dramatic music]

- Ninjas? In New York?
- Other than us?

[all grunting]

Why are you so happy?

It's just nice to
finally be fighting people,

instead of robots, or
aliens, or weed-monsters.

What are you?

[siren wailing]

[tires screech]

Their leader was crazy good,

by which I mean he was good
and seemed a little crazy.

Besides, he had all these guys with him.

- It... it wasn't a fair fight.
- What do you mean, "fair fight"?

A fair fight, you know,
where either side could win?

So a fair fight is a
fight you could lose.

Well, yes, but...

- Well, what I... what I mean is...
- You don't want to assure your victory.

No, I do, but...

Ow! Hey!

- Was that fair?
- No!

Did I win?

- I see your point.
- Seek victory, not fairness.

Hai, sensei.

[grunts]

Whoa, that's rad!

Oh, I wish me and Chris
Bradford were friends!

[laughing]

Mikey, you already have a human friend.

- Me!
- April, you don't count.

We saved your life, you have to like us.

Too bad there's no place
for freaks to meet people

where no one can see
how hideous they are.

Wait, there is... the internet!
Donnie, can I see your laptop?

Uh, y... uh, sure!
Just a sec.

Check it out, it's a site
where you can make friends

- with anybody online.
- Sweet!

[gasps]
Ohh, Chris Bradford's on here!

He'll be my first friend!

Mikey, people don't always
respond immed... [laptop beeps]

But sometimes they do.

[gasps]

No way! Chris Bradford
has accepted my friendship!

I have a friend!
Thanks, April!

- Where are you going?
- Hey!

To hang out with my
friend, Chris Bradford.

This guy's famous.
He probably has thousands of "friends."

And guess who's number 5,286?

- You?
- Daniel Ramirez!

And I'm right next to him.
Later!

- Well, this ought to be interesting.
- Should we go after him?

Eh, he's gotta learn somehow.

[giggles]

What up? Hey.
I'm... [shouts]

I'm being attacked by Chris Bradford!

This is so cool!

[screams] No, wait!
We're...

- Whoa! Friends!
- What?

We're online friends!
You accepted me, remember?

Oh.
Of course.

Nice to meet you.

[awestruck giggling]

Uh...
Won't you come in?

They must have been
watching us from here.

The perfect place to stage an ambush.

It wasn't very fair, was it?

It's not about fairness.
It's about victory.

Okay, I'm sorry.

And then... and then Chris
Bradford put on his hakama.

Man, that guy can rock a hakama!

Yeah, maybe he'll wear it again
when he takes you to the prom.

- And then after that, he...
- Oh, enough!

You've been going on
about this for three hours.

Ooh, someone sounds jealous.

You just can't admit that
you were the "R" word.

"Rong"?
[disgusted sighs]

[scoffing]
I'm not wrong.

Oh, yeah? If you don't want
to talk about my friend...

[grunts]

I've got two other brothers who do.

Actually, I'd rather
talk about anything else.

Like the concept of
the silent "W," perhaps?

Fine. Heh, I'll go talk to a guy who
likes to talk about Chris Bradford

more than anyone else:
Chris Bradford.

[grunting]

There's my best buddy
in the whole world!

[groans]

Michelangelo, Mikey, the Big M.
How you doing, buddy?

I am stupendous, Chris.
Chrissy B...

I gotta work on your nickname.
Ooh... Rad-Brad!

You know, I was just thinking
how we're such close friends,

- and yet I know so little about you.
- You think we're close friends?

Of course!
Now tell me everything about you.

Well, where should I start?

Ooh... I named all six of my toes!

How interesti...
Ugh!

There's Stubby and Joey nails...

Oh, that's... that...
that's fascinating.

But I was thinking more about
your impressive ninjitsu skills.

- You must have an incredible sensei.
- Oh, he is the best.

Now meet the stinky triplets!

Ugh... okay!
[chuckling]

- Who's hungry?
- Me! I want pizza!

- Do you like pizza?
- Yeah, sure.

Whoa.
We have so much in common.

[gulps]

Isn't this great?

Blue skies, pizza, couple
of dudes just hangin'.

[rat squeaking]

Yeah, great.
Since we've gotten so close,

maybe you could tell me
a little more about your brothers.

[with mouth full]
Oh... oh, yeah.

Uh, they're good dudes.

But sometimes...
I don't think they respect me.

[munching sloppily]

Uh, I can't imagine why.

Cool.

[gasps] Look at that katana!
That looks old.

Yes, yes, it's over 400 years old.

[chuckles uncomfortably]

- But getting back to your sensei...
- Look, Rad-Brad, I'd love to tell you,

but there's just some
things I have to keep secret.

[gasps]

But we're friends. And friends
share their secrets, don't they?

Are you saying you're going to show me

your secret kata, "the death dragon?"

Tell you what.

As a show of trust and friendship,
I will teach you the death dragon.

All right!

But you have to swear
not to show it to anyone.

I promise I won't show a soul.

And then he kicks, twists,
and sweeps the leg...

Ha!
The death dragon.

That was amazing!

Yeah, it's devastatingly
effective and complex.

- And yet even Mikey could learn it.
- Thank you.

Hey!
[laptop beeping]

It's Rad-Brad!
That's my little name for him.

He wants to get together
for a little B-ball.

Can't wait to find out
what the "B" stands for!

You're going now?

Sorry, dudes, human friend stuff.
You know how it is.

Oh, wait.
No, you don't. [chuckles]

The freak is on his way.
The trap is set.

Pretty weapon for a tough guy.
In prison, we made our own weapons.

I'll keep that in mind if I'm ever
stupid enough to wind up in prison.

[grunting]

- Not quite.
- Wait, I think I got it.

[dramatic music]

Where did you learn that?

Mikey learned it from his new friend.

The man who taught him
that kata is no friend!

- It comes from the Shredder.
- Shredder?

You mean Bradford is
one of his students?

He must be.

So Bradford's just pretending to
be Mikey's friend to get to you.

Ohh, what a relief!
Everything makes sense again.

Mikey's in trouble!

Rad-Brad? Hello?

Hello?

Raddie-Braddie?
Did you plan me a surprise party?

[startled yell]

[ominous music]

[grunts]

Whoa!

Uh...

Tell me what you've done with
Chris, or you guys are in serious...

[all grunting]

[chuckles]

- Haven't you figured out who I am?
- Should I have?

[both grunting]

[chuckles]

We've already
met face-to-face.

No.
It can't be.

You're...
the guy with the cat?

You fool.

Rad-Brad?
What?

I thought we were friends.
I introduced you to all of my toes.

You actually thought someone like me

could be friends with a freak like you?

- Pathetic!
- I say we get rid of him.

Nothing would make me happier.

[gulps]

But we need him.
All part of the trap.

Rad-Brad?

[rock music]

[unsheathes sword]

[grunting]

Dudes!
That was sporadic!

- Shh!
- Shh!

[quietly]
That's not what that means!

[water splashing]

- Perfect.
- We've got them.

[rat squeaking]

[manhole cover sliding]

[grunts]

Show your faces!

They've trapped us!

Take 'em down!

[all grunting]

Ha!

[all grunting]

[fingers snap]

They knew we were following them.

That's right.

Sweep the leg!

Hit it!

[screaming]

[grunting]

[both screaming]

- Well, that didn't seem very fair.
- No, it wasn't.

[all chuckling]

High three!

Um, sensei, aren't you hungry?

- I fear we are celebrating too soon.
- Too soon?

The bad guys were swept away
in a river of raw sewage.

By my watch, that makes
it the perfect time.

Shredder knows I'm alive.
And worse, he knows about all of you.

It's my worst nightmare come true.

- So it's not over?
- Oh, no.

It's just beginning.

[laptop beeping]

- How you doing, Mikey?
- This was all my fault.

I should have never thought
I could be friends with a human.

Eh, don't be so hard on yourself.

- So it's not my fault?
- Of course it's your fault.

[sighs]

If you tell the others,
I'll beat the green off you,

but...
you're an awesome guy.

Bradford didn't think so.

Eh, he's a psychotic killing machine.
You deserve way better friends than him.

You know what?
You're right.

- Thanks, Raph.
- Anytime.

Unfriend.

Ha-ha!
Revenge!
