OT ep: Season 8 finale, "Turtle Trek" (Bebop/Rocksteady's finale)

Season 8's finale is another bittersweet episode of the series....it marks Bebop and Rocksteady's FINAL appearance in the show. The two loveable villains who debuted in the first episode back in 1987 would make their final appearance in the show in 1994. We wouldn't see them again for 15+ years until Turtles Forever.

This episode deals with the Turtles chasing Shredder/Krang back into Dimension X and befriending an alien who acts as their guide there. They get into random skirmishes with other Dimension X aliens.

This episode also marks the final Rock Soldier battle of the series. Sadly General Traag doesn't take part, (we see him talking to Krang earlier in the episode, but he doesn't appear after that), and the Turtles defeat some Rock Soldiers for the last time in the series. At the end of the episode the Turtles destroy the Technodrome's engines, Shredder and Krang are defeated, and the plant creature pulls the Technodrome into a ditch. Again, we see the Turtles battle Bebop and Rocksteady one last time and throw them into a room.

Raphael's last quip about Bebop and Rockseady after defeating them were, "Gee, I almost feel sorry for those guys." Yes, Raphael, yes you do.

Bebop and Rocksteady will always have a place in our hearts, even if they never re-appear in a cartoon again.
