Official Ep Discussion: S3 Ep14: "Casey Jones vs the Underworld"

[neatoman]

So I found some really awful upload of this episode, I'll probably watch a better version as soon as possible.

Anyway, great job on Hun, he feels written correctly.

Captain America of course.

In TMNT he's Captain Ryan/Dash Coolstar/Crognard.

Bebop/Rocksteady probably weren't in this episode because they can only have a set number of voices per episode. This ep had a lot of characters:

4 Turtles
Casey
Splinter
Shredder
Rahzar
Fishface
Tiger Claw
Baxter
Mob Boss
Hun

Which is 12 voices.

In the past they only saw him with the mask and/or face paint on, they didn't recognize him this time because he wasn't wearing any of those. In fact, he disguised himself as a busboy/waiter working in the restaurant. He didn't have all his gears/weapons with him too.

I wonder if when this Mind control serum is finished, I expect Shredder will want to test it on someone, obviously he can't choose Karai just incase it goes wrong so I bet he captures a turtle which ends up being Raph and use him as a test subject.

I expect this serum is either put in food and water supply or injected.

Poor Donnie I expect he will try to make a cure.

[aliena]

I guess that Karai will be unmutated and will also be mind controlled along with Raph.

It would be interesting if Donnie is attacked by BB and RS,

Spoiler:

a bit less intense than #44, but incapacitated to the point of being badly injured

and leaving Leo and Mikey alone to save Raph and Karai.

Also, if Donnie has the mind control sample, can't he come up with a cure too? Maybe before it even happens?

Loved the reference to Class 101, the fact that splinter repaired their bowl and they kept the lair. Hopefully, they can fix up the Shellraiser too. Mikey needs to be more serious. From eating the rotten food to freaking out over the remote to eating the cheezy balls, it's just too much. At least he fought well.

I'm sick to death of Leo always getting beaten down by Shredder. I know there is probably some rematch showdown coming, but he should get in a few cuts or something to him every now and then.

Good Raph and Casey scenes. I'm glad Raph went to help him instead of blowing him off.

If injected, the blow dart that was used to poison Splinter in The Manhattan Project might be used again, or maybe Steranko's tranquillizer gun that was used to hunt Karai in Serpent Hunt.

He shouldn't of been eating the Cheese Balls anyway as it's bad for him. I was looking at the package it says it has Red Dye 42 in it. So I looked it up and we have Red Dye 40 which is put in some foods and apparently kids who eat food with Red Dye 40 in, make the kids hyper especially kids who have ADHD. So I blame the cheese balls for Mikey's strange mood in todays episode.

If Raph is under mind control, the writers could in just do it where Raph gives away all the knowledge he knows about the turtles' plans which would include how they plan to cure Karai.

Which could ultimately be how be how Shredder learns of the true retromutagen.

I was just watching the episode again and at the start where Casey is talking about Theaves and Thugs, it showed thugs playing basket ball and someone hanging by a rope to basket ball net it looks like the rope was round the persons neck

[OrangeNinja1987]

Great episode! Pretty fun, great action, good Hun debut. Not much more I can say, because there were very few faults.
I love that Hun acts and looks like Bruce Lee. This show loves referencing martial arts movie stars, because it seems like Rahzar's human form looked a lot like Chuck Norris, or is that just me?
Mikey did act a bit hyper this episode. I thought he was past the gross-out jokes? I don't remember him having any recently, at least cringe-worthy ones like the pizza in this episode.
And how did Donnie know right away that the chemicals were for mind-control? I can imagine him figuring it out, given enough time.
I noticed for the first time today that Splinter keeps the bowl he bought the turtles in on the shelf in the dojo. Was that always there? Anyway, that's pretty cute. They even had a pink plastic palm tree.
Kind of stupid that this episode was advertising a Casey/Shredder showdown that never really happened, as the turtles rushed in before anything took place. And then the turtles praised Casey at the end for facing Shredder when 1) it never happened and 2) it was really stupid and they'd told him that.

[IndigoErth]

Ok, late getting comments in. Not a bad one, I was afraid the Turtles might mostly be out on this one, but it was a nice balance even while being a Casey-focused episode. But April? April who? lol She must be with her dad I guess. ...has Casey found his family though?

But their making fun of/laughing at him when he went back to the lair... You boys are bad... But if we're supposed to get the idea that Casey feels unappreciated or less useful lately, then it worked.

Not a bad Hun character, he's kinda cool.

So the glowing stuff DOESN'T hurt?? With the appearance of molten metal, it was hard to just accept that as harmless stuff that just...glows for some reason. lol I think Hun fell into some? For a sec I questioned if they killed him off that soon.

AND... a little surprised the Turtles and Splinter are moving back home, but glad they are because I always loved their place. (Now, Leo and Donnie's rooms in future episode please?)

Is that what that was about? Never saw it before today either. That's adorable though.

I had these pets but they went and became my kids - life, whatdya gonna do.

April and her dad are in this episode but right at the start. they were handing out soup to people.

Ah, you're right. Saw that but quickly forgot about it.

Pretty awesome episode. I loved how Casey really wanted to be in the fight with the Turtles, though what he did was very stupid and reckless. Loved the movie reference with the Pain 101 line. Hun is awesome and definitely has some skills, so I like that. Jeph, I, too, had the Cheesy Poofs song in my head when Mikey kept eating the cheeseballs. Mom was laughing at some of the stuff Mikey did though like when he was running on the conveyor belt. I loved Leo's fight with Shredder, but I don't think it's the big fight yet. I do hope he gets one though, and it may be during the Dark Raph story. Also loved the Auman Chemicals plant and how the Dark Raph story will come about thanks to said chemicals. My guess is that either Shredder will use the mind control on Karai, and she in turn will hypnotize Raph, or he'll use it on Raph. Overall, a very decent episode. And I love that they have decided to stay in the Lair, too.

[Fang Wolf]

This Ep was really good.
I laughed when Casey (Hun) and Tigerclaw (Casey) got punched in the crotch.
* Enjoyable Thing in whole Ep*

[Tarris Vaal]

Liked Hun, but he did feel like a villain of 'Casey's league' if that makes sense. I dont know if that's always been the case, but it would have been nice to see him compare to one of the Turtles.

Mikey being .... Mikey was fine and he had by far the best fight moves of anyone outside of Hun. He reminds me more of Jackie Chan everytime he fights.

Overall, a good solid episode and nice for April to take a backseat for a bit to give that space for Casey to develop.

That said, I have to say that the foreshadowing at the end was about as subtle as a brick to the face.

Probably the poorest Crognard ep as well

On plus note, great to see Rahzar and Fishface again.

[Ashwolf]

overall, pretty sweet ep

liking the new version of hun

thinking that don making the cure will take awhile since its very likely there are more chemicals in the serum than wat was in this ep alone so im guessing itll last at least 3 eps
