I would imagine that they probably made that ep, but decided it was 'the weakest link', so it didn't get finished in time for this debut. But, that's only my theory..

Someone was recently saying that they thought it was weird that they would do a season that isn't a full 26 eps long. While that is out of the ordinary, having that number reduced from 13 (exactly half) to 12 is too peculiar and suspicious to be believed.

These are the Spirit avatars, as the tribunal calls them, of Joy, Adam, Tora & Feragi.

Adam is a Bear, Tora is a wolf (I think), Joy is a falcon and Feragi is a lion

Tora means tiger in Japanese tho so it would be more logical if it was a Tiger. *shrugs*

This is how Lap of the Gods episode goes:

The turtles, Joy, Adam, Tora & Feragi are waiting on the boat to arrive to where ever it is they are going. Raph mentions how this stinks and that he doesn't trust the Tribunal. Leo and Raph argue about what to do, Raph wants to fight the Tribunal, while Leo wants to wait and see as they don't know much about them. The boat arrives in Japan, so the Tribunal tell their "acolytes" (the turtles, Joy, Adam, Tora & Feragi) that their path is long and difficult. The acolytes (carrying a bunch of luggage on their backs) climb up a mountain. Midway up, they wonder what the tribunal is doing, the Tribunal talk about the journey beginning, then use their powers to make the boat float up to the top of the mountain. Mikey jokes about it not being fair. The acolytes finally arrive at a temple on the top of the mountain. The acolytes enter.

Commercial Break

The Tribunal reveal the temple as what is called the Lap of the Gods, the tribunal monastery. The tribunal gathers the acolytes around a green pond, explaining what is happening. They tell them that this battle will be fought by physical and mystical means. Each member of the acolytes is then given a mystical amulet aiding them to harness their inner beings, their chi. Raph jokes about getting dog collars. The Tribunal reveal their true forms, each with a name and a mystical power. I don't know the spelling, but I will do the best I can. The teal blue one is Kahn Shi Sho, ninjitsu master of spirit. The blue one is Juto Shi Sho, ninjitsu master of weapons. The olive green female one is Chicara Shi Sho, ninjitsu master of strength. The yellow one is Hissomi Shi Sho, ninjitsu master of stealth.

The tribunal tell them that training begins now and Chicara summons a door revealing it to be a library. Donatello is the only excited one. Its a library for them to study for the coming danger. Leo asks Don about a book and Don explains it to him. He tells Leo about focus and energy and harnessing one's chi physically by concentrating, while doing this purple glowing tribal symbol cover Don's body while he's concentrating. It disappears and Leo and Don have no idea what it was, meanwhile Mikey has fallen asleep, drooling, while studying.

A training montage begins showing all 8 acolytes failing while being taught a specific lesson by each tribunal member. The tribunal questions them, thinking they are weak. Splinter than arrivesat the temple. The Tree Warriors of the Tribunal surround Splinter, but the Turtles then surround him to fight against the tree warriors. The Tribunal stops them and allows Splinter to stay but tell him it doesn't change anything. They question how Splinter found the monastery, then The Ancient One arrives waving at the tribunal. The Ancient One tries to get Splinter to reconsider, but the tribunal interrupts explaining that there is no time left. They show the acolytes that 5 heralds (the 5 foot mystics) are traveling to try and get three artifacts that will lead to the ritual of resurrection of their master. The tribunal says that two of the artifacts were stolen from their possession by the herald's servants. The tribunal explains that the 3rd artifact is still in their possession but don't explain what the artifacts are.

Splinter tells the tribunal that they can continue to guard the 3rd artifact without him and the turtles. Suddenly the monastery comes under attack by a mysterious force. The tribunal prepares to battle this attack, but each one of them is rendered helpless. The turtles, Joy, Adam, Tora & Feragi prepare to fight wondering what it is that is attacking. The roof of the monastery is destroyed revealing as Splinter calls, Hayashi Aki, a giant fire demon. Donatello concentrates and uses his harnessed chi to combat the demon. He tries to tell Leo what they must do but is taken out by the demon. The demon takes out everybody else, leaving only Leonardo & Feragi left to fight. Leo & Feragi attack but are knocked out. The fire demon tells them that it has ended before it has begun and leaves. Leo and Raph, knocked on the floor, talk about how this is how it ends and that they couldn't stop it because they weren't ready.

Suddenly Leo awakens, as well as the rest, realizing that it was all just a test by the tribunal. The tribunal explains to them about perception and reality, and that as soon as they realize this, they will then be ready to face the task at hand. Leo tells the others that it was their first real lesson and that there will be more to learn. END.


Sorry for the length.

Did I miss how YouTube became more legal than torrents or P2P? Since the Aquaman Trailer was removed several times for copyright reasons (before they put the pilot on iTunes) I assumed it was no different to any other form of downloading.

I'm not against downloading the show (in fact when CITV decided to just keep repeating the first 1/2 of season 4 over and over I got the 2nd half season from torrents) and it certainly has its place (like Insane in the Membrane and catching an episode you missed, NOT downloading whole seasons though). Especially if you buy the DVDs afterwards.

In fact I must say even if these episodes do (and they probably will) end up on torrents or YouTube, etc. PLEASE still buy the DVD set. If you don't then 4Kids may not bring them to normal TV, and they almost certainly won't think there's any value in the pre-FF series - DVD sales of TLS are the only real way to show support for the old TMNT.

That said - point me to the downloads as these episodes will never reach the UK and it'll be a while before the DVD comes out to import!

EDIT: I guess I'm not alone in thinking this.

Sure its not 100% legal as alot of unauthorized stuff end up on youtube, but at least, you can't download an entire movie wich is of high quality. What you have on youtube is low quality.

Anyway, youtube was never created in the intention of sharing illegal files like torrent sites, it was created to give a chance to everybody to create a little video clip of their own. Wich is 100% legal, as long as you don't use illegal files...

But indeed, if the episodes would end up on youtube, it would be illegal since no one ever agreed to let them be there... But its the most ''legal'' thing that we have and wich is free... Companies sure prefer youtube over torrents, even if its... not ''legal''.

And I'm sure that pretty much everybody here, even if they saw it on the web, are gonna buy the lost season on dvd. I sure am, just to be able to have what might be the last of the tmnt 2k3 era.

You better believe it! But, if I were to find a pristine quality video file to tide me over until the DVD comes out... I'm no angel.

I don't understand what the big deal is. This is a Saturday morning cartoon that anyone who has a tv plugged in the wall can watch. I won't feel like I did anything wrong if I watch lost season episodes online. Just like I didn't feel bad when I watched Insane in the Membrane on You Tube. It could have been a free episode that anyone could see with a tv plugged in the wall.

I don't feel that anyone is as a loss of profit, if I watch a Saturday morning cartoon online. When I watch it on tv, I'm not paying for it. The electric bill is all you have to pay to watch TMNT on 4Kids.

I plan to buy the lost season on DVD, even if I see some or all of the episodes online.
