Official Episode Discussion: #24 "Operation Breakout"

[Machias Banshee]

Well, we're finally getting closer to the finale!




Okay, so after a long LONG Looooong hiatus, we're finally jumping back into the storyline. This time, we're tracking down April's Dad, Kirby.

You know, the more I look at him, the more suspicious I get of the situation with him and April. Many folks think that April is some sort of hybrid born from something from Dimension X. I think it's the other way around...

I'm thinking that Mr Scientist here is a rogue Kraang that got involved with a human, and April is some sort of strange result of it. Or some sort of test tube baby experiment of his. Human technology is too low brow compared to what the Kraang have... why would they bother with a 'primitive' human scientist?

'Cuz he's not human.


Whatever the situation is, Donnie amazingly manages to track him down in the depths of tentacle hell. Pretty easy walk through...

((I'd put the guy from Star Wars here hollering 'It's a Trap!", but I think I got beaten to it already... ))

Not only does Donnie get to be a hero in this situation, but we're also going to get our first look at a Native X-er emerge from the prison cells to wreak havoc.

Neutralizer is interesting... an amphibious mercenary with a taste for intergalactic calamari. Hopefully he's not the poisonous type - or one of the species that have slimy LSD ooze or something seeping from his skin. This show's Mike looks dumb enough to be dared into licking him or something...


So we'll see what happens!


WILL DONATELLO SAVE DR. KIRBY FROM THE KRAANG?!
IS THE NEUTRALIZER ANOTHER ONE EPISODE VISITOR?!
WILL KIRBY BE REVEALED TO BE MORE THAN WHAT HE SEEMS?!
AND WILL WE SEE WHAT THE HECK IS SHREDDER UP TO DURING ALL THIS?!


Stay Tuned!!

[Machias Banshee]

We're open!!

[LH]

That was AWESOME!!!!!!!!

Man, what an episode!!! so worth the wait!!! Newtralizer ROCKS!!! It looks like for now he will be a threat to our turtle friends. He was an awesome fighter though!

He's an alien experiment huh? Maybe he and LH were mutated around the same time... I can't wait to hear his story. Danny Trejo voices him, so he'll get to talk eventually!

Kirby is a droid... or some other type of imposter... This is going to be good!!!

But oh man... I think what really has me excited is...

Spoiler:

THEY BLOW UP TRAAG IN THE FINALE!!!!!!!!

[raph27]

Yay I loved that ep! Donnie was so cute! Mikey: the heart is tender. Squiiiiiiish. April is definitely a Kraang after watching this. And what's up with Kirby? Turned evil or a robot?

[snake]

Amazing episode!
I loved the whole thing. Newtrailzer is awesome, Kirby might be a Kraang in disguise, April has powers or something, AND IM SO EXCITED FOR THE FINALE!!!!!!!!!

Also, Donnie got a hug

[Electric]

To me, it seemed like kirby isnt a robot, or brainwashed, it seemed like he is just in on the kraangs plan, like he was meant to be rescued, so he could lead them to the turtles.

[snake]

Or Kirby turns out to be a kraang, hence why Mikey's fighting him in the season finale trailer, just so the "rescue Kirby" stuff can go on in season 2.
What do you think?

[redsai4lex]

Its really good to see another new episode again! I think Raph and Don have a very realistic brotherly relationship.

Spoiler:

Its probably why they were shown at the beginning practicing with each other, and then again at the end where Raph is trying to talk good about Don in front of April... I love moments like these

Newtralizer was really cool! I like how he didn't waste any time

What do you think?

Absolutely... It's very likely.

[VaughnMichael]

This was one of the best epiodes so far in this series hands down.
The fighting was great, April meditating with Splinter, Newtralizer (Can't wait to hear him speak!), Kirby was rescused (or so we think!), Shredder & the Kraang now working together!, April being able to find the Kraang device (which looks like the Turnstone from the Archie series and I still think she is some sort of robot), I seriously thought April was going to find the Ratking after we saw that rat in the sewer.
Oh and I liked Mikey's bad driving and the Kraang calling the other an idiot.
The only thing I thought we'd see that we didn't was Tim in Don's lab.

That's what I'm thinking... They said at the end the real Kirby had not been rescued... implying that the one they brought home was a fake.

[Captain PunchYouHard]

Mikey just slew me with his line about the heart. The feels, man; the feels!

Raph's attempt to make nice killed me too. Maybe he's the one we should be worried about having been replaced by a Kraangdroid. Seriously, though, it's good to finally see that he has a conscience in regards to his brothers.

I thought I was the only one who thought she was going to encounter the Rat King down there!

[Captain PunchYouHard]

Oh, and April is crazy. If you're going to go chase ominous-sounding stuff around in the sewers, why not let the grand master of ninjutsu come with?

Splinter probably had better things to do, like eat or watch TV. He sure seemed fine letting April go by herself.

[LH]

One of my Twitter friends has an excellent theory... Newtralizer was attacking the Turtles... Because he knew Kirby was a Kraang!!!

I got the impression she eluded him. I don't think he'd let her run off on her own.

That is actually a pretty good theory... I like it

Good theory, but at still doesn't explain why he wants To kill the turtles

Maybe he just has terrible aim?

I thought that before the episode aired, but didn't have the chance to post it. Because of that clip, where Donnie rescues 'Kirby'. Haven't seen the episode because I live in the UK so I'll just have to wait till it's uploaded.

Maybe since he is "The Newtralizer"

then maybe he is a "neutral" character...

just a thought.
