Official Ep Discussion: S3 Ep3: "Buried Secrets"

**Machias Banshee** · 10-16-2014, 08:47 PM

Man, it is getting harder and harder to find videos to embed in this thread.

Okay, so a little time has passed since the romance of Bigfoot-ette and the crazy finger guy. We've also seen Donnie get some really confusing mixed signals from April - she doesn't like the music box, but she kisses him on the lips and calls him 'her mutant'.

We've gotten past all the crazy weird stuff with the puke creep and Bigfoot, so now they can settle down into the 'routine'- Cleaning up the house and clearing out the cobwebs. Dusting and polishing ALL the wood furniture in the house.

And then the basement. I hate basements... they're dark, dank, full of old stuff, and infested with enough spiders to make a Steven King movie.

April said that this farm was her childhood home - away from the city, away from outside contact. We know now that she's not a normal human being, but it does bring up more questions. What was her father doing during the time they were there? Was she a normal kid back then? And where is her mother? (...we're starting to sound just like the avatar fans!)

WILL DONNIE CONTINUE TO SPAR WITH CASEY FOR APRIL'S HEART?!
WILL APRIL FIND OUT THE TRUTH OF WHAT HAPPENED TO HER MOTHER!
IS KIRBY REALLY THE LOVING FATHER WE'VE BEEN LEAD TO BELIEVE?!
Oh yeah.... DID MIKEY SAVE THE REFRIGERATOR LAST WEEK, AND RESCUE POOR ICKITTY?!

Stay tuned!!

Just saw it. Great episode. Oh, mutagen gets spilled in the woods and it might be possible that some other Mutants well be introduced, ribbit.

*IndigoErth* · 10-17-2014, 06:32 PM

Anyone have words for it, 'cuz I don't. Woah.

Frogs incoming...

*Luckyday* · 10-17-2014, 06:33 PM

It interesting that April's....banshee scream seems to only effect the kraang and kraang's experiments.

*snake* · 10-17-2014, 06:33 PM

Told you guys

*Powder* · 10-17-2014, 06:34 PM

Getting a little sick of the "character X is not who you think they are" plot. Saw it coming 10,000 miles away. That aside, this was a very entertaining episode. Loved the nods to They Live & The Thing, ice cream kitty getting more screen time, & dark stuffs.

Syb3rStrife · 10-17-2014, 06:35 PM

Poor Mikey, Once again no one listens to him and because of that all hell breaks loose.

Anybody else catch that Raph was watching the Halloween III Silver Shamrock Commerical? I nearly died.

*IndigoErth* · 10-17-2014, 06:35 PM

This though:

Halloween 3 movie reference.

Edit: Starting to like Seth a bit as Leo, at least when his tone sounds smoother and less gravelly. One or two parts in this one he just sounded like a good, older Leo who's voice had simply deepened, not bad.

My quick thoughts:

*oldmanwinters* · 10-17-2014, 06:41 PM

Renae Jacobs did a fine job. Ironically, the only times she really sounded like her old April voice was her screams, faints, and "evil" mood.

Ashwolf · 10-17-2014, 06:45 PM

awesome ep, but my 1 complaint is how raph, don, and mikey sent leo down into the basement 1st even though hes injured, I mean, come on, seriously.....
other than that, love the direction they are going w/ the show

*JTH* · 10-17-2014, 06:48 PM

It took 3 episodes, and Seth Green has sunk in to me now. No point during this episode did I think anything of it.

Bring on the Punk Frogs...after a 3 week hiatus!

Very Nice episode by mister Mark Henry.

*MrTMNT2012* · 10-17-2014, 06:48 PM

Sick Episode! The plots are getting repetitive but I must say this episode was written WAY better than the previous one. Renae Jacobs did a fantastic job! The action was badass too.

*NinjaPug* · 10-17-2014, 06:49 PM

IGN review is up. 7.8/10

Thought the same when I'd seen the commercials. Sure, the limping guy with the crutch. Such protective ~~chickens~~ brothers you are.

(Ok, they have been at other times.)

*CyberCubed* · 10-17-2014, 06:50 PM

I bet some little kids were scared away from watching this show ever again because of this ep. They're probably losing ratings because kids are getting nightmares and refusing to watch.

Kids aren't wusses okay? Have you seen the new Spongebob episodes? This doesn't even compare to those and those episodes get huge ratings from kids...

I got a big kick out of that, considering its notoriously the worst Halloween. XD

He's been right about his feelings/hunches too many times now! -THE THING reference! Creepy as heck to boot. -April always getting that head power thing in knick of time and when there is no other option: are they ever going to explain what it is anytime soon? -Ice Cream Kitty and Mikey are too adorable. -Frog mutation coming soon. Wonder what that'll become. -Casey seems to be really great to talk to when someone is really having emotional turmoil. -My favorite of the movie homage episodes thus far. __________________ Under construction.
