Violent Outbursts

[Sage Ninja]

In the orginal series of TMNT did the turtles ever have any violent out bursts at all. I have a guy friend who swears up and down that there was an episode or two where one of the turtles flips out and reacts vilolently on a few occasions. And for the life of me i can't remeber if the turtles in the old toon ever had any violent outbursts of anger or any thing.

The closest i can recall of a violent outburst that the turtles had, was in the second season when the turtles flipped out on Bebop and Rocksteady for trashing there TV set and they went medeval on them.

So, can any one think of an instance where the turtles acted particualry violent?

Depends on how you describe the "violent outbursts".

In "Turtles on Trial", Don got really pissed when Rocks and Bebop trashed the amphibian exhibit in the museum - his turtle pride must have been harmed with that. "Hey, did you just trash the amphibian exhibit? Oh, that does it. No more Mr. Nice Turtle," cried the enraged Don and then dropped the stuffed alligator on them. That's one example I can think of for now.

Episode 157 Night of the Dark Turtle where Don gets hurt by Rocksteady and Bebok and goes to the dark side and tries and hunt them down (think that happens, have to watch the episode again)

why would donnie care, he's no amphibian

What can I say, Don likes his slimy-skinned buddies. You respect them-- or else. (He is at least amphibious. Kinda.)

Well, ask him away. Maybe he feels related.

"Leatherhead meets The Ratking" - Mikey gets so pissed after having his pizza trashed by Don that he manages to knock over both Don and Leo quite easily in his rage.

What's ironic is that he trashes his own kind. The alligator, of course.

you know i completely forgot about the night of the dark Turtle episode. That was a shocker for me when Donatello had Shredder down and was about to do him in :o. So far from what I have read Both Donatello and Michaelangelo have had particulaly violent outbursts. That is surpricing because i always thought of Donatello, the techno guy, and Michaelangelo, the laid back suffer turtle, as being more tranquil souls, than lets say...Raphael and Leonardo.

But these two seem to have cropped up the most violent tendacies :o yikes! Maybe these two have some kind of temper managment problem. Escpeically Donatello, I think he is the one turtle that has ever intentionally tried to take a life.

If Don and Mike really had more "violent outbursts," it would probably be for the shock value, simply because nobody would see it coming.

As for Don never intentionally taking a life, that's just not true. He may have stronger feelings against it than his more militant brothers, but when he takes a life it is intentional. (Not that there aren't accidents.) In fact, he may deliberate more on it, which would make it more intentional, not less.

[Sage Ninja]

I didn't say he would never intentionally take a life or that he isn't as militant as the his brothers. I'm just saying that in the classic toon he seems to be the only turtle who a least tried to take a life. And I was also commented that given the fact that him (and Mike) seem to be more laid back easy going than Raphael and Leonardo, that maybe they there out burst might be a sign that they are not as peaceful natured as one may think, and that may have some pent up anger or frustrations that is immediatly apparent. Especuially given the light hearted theme of the classic series.

In eighther case I was only specualting.
