Why does Shredder say he never bluff?

TurtleFan2012 · 05-14-2012, 03:15 PM

I am confused about the episode "Get Shredder". They have this running gag where Shredder makes a threat and the person calls him a liar, then something bad happens and Shredder says, "I never bluff".

That doesn't make sense. He lies in a lot of episodes.

I think you answered your own question

He lies

He lies when it fits him, otherwise not.

Donatello said he was bluffing about the retro mutagen cannon in Turtle Trek, that line always reminded me of the I never bluff lines. Then he proved he didn't bluff by using the cannon on Gargon. He proved right there what he said I never bluff.

Any who dude he's a criminal he lies all the time. Why's it matter if he said I never bluff but does? I haven't seen the episode recently but does he say it sarcastically?

You're either a complete moron or a genius.

^so be careful when u come to a conclusion abt that...;p

I'm guessing the surprise in this is that he frequently didn't make good on his threats before. Can an example be given of a time from earlier in the series that he made a threat that he never had the slightest intention of carrying out?
