Is Donatello playing the role of Shredder?

Many of us from the start believed that the Donatello/April/Casey arc was going to play out like the Splinter/Tang Shen/Shredder arc. And it seemed everyone assumed that Donnie would play the role of Splinter since he was the hero and Casey was the vigilante.

But after seeing the new episode today, a weird thought played out in my head; Donnie looks like he's playing the role of Shredder in this angle.

Losing the girl that he never really had, and going from sad and depressed to becoming bitter and upset because "he's the outcast", and in the end becoming obsessed with trying to get her back, ultimately costing him everything.

Then the lecture he had with Splinter during the episode is when I really started getting this vibe, obviously Splinter would be the first to notice if these feelings Donnie was experiencing could result in this.

Anyone getting this vibe?
