I thought this was a great episode! It was tons of fun, had great fighting scenes and good humor. Overall, great episode, 8.5/10, one of the best this season by far.

Yeah, the closest we got to a "Protecting the location of the lair" plot point was Leo and the others obscuring Kraang-Brain Raph's vision with a paper bag.

The thing that bugs me...we had a mind swapping episode...And we didn't get a Donnie/Raph swap for Rob Paulsen to speak as Raph!?

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

OrangeNinja1987 · 06-22-2014, 06:22 PM

Loved the episode. It had tons of funny moments and reminded me of a classic 80's TMNT brain-swapping episode (there were a lot). I loved seeing Raph trying to act like a Kraang - lots of great lines from that. Dominic actually was good as Leo this week. I didn't mind him at all. Mikey was funny, but wasn't dealt with like a complete idiot like he usually is in this show (I think the show should take the route with Mikey they set up in Wrath of Tigerclaw - hilarious but not dumb - and so far that looks like what is happening).
This episode just felt fresh. It is definitely my favorite Kraang episode of season 2. Glad that Donnie didn't go crazy for April in this episode, but I still like Apritello.
Super excited for Vengeance is Mine!

Boy am I glad they didn't drag the "kraang in Raph's body" thing out too long. They didn't have any scenes of kraang trying to "blend in" with the other 3 and they figured it out almost immediately and I'm really happy about that.

Great episode.

Great episode.

Yup, in other cartoons, no one notices that someone swapped minds until the final act of the episode.

shihe · 06-22-2014, 06:58 PM

At first I was afraid it was going to turn into the typical mind-switch episode, but I'm glad I was wrong.

It was funny, and best of all, it actually served a purpose. So that Raphael could find out what the Kraang were up to.

It would've been awesome to have a mind-switch frenzy at the end, but I guess that would have only made it more predictable, and perhaps drag the episode on while detracting in the plot development area.

It was a pretty cool episode... although a bit unreal that the Turtles would simply forget about Karai juts like that. But a good change of mood since the "Miwa-saga" was getting a little bit too serious.
(I still would have preferred this episode AFTER the Karai issue was resolved, but then again... maybe it still has a long way to go).

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 06-22-2014, 07:01 PM

Just watched the episode on you-tube- man that was fast- and it was great. Loved Raph-Kraang, it was fun seeing him try to fool the Kraang. Loved the sea-monster, too. I almost feel sorry for it. However, as funny as the Casey/April switch was, what would have been even FUNNIER would be Casey and DONNIE switching!! You can bet Donnie might have reservations about switching back with him if that happened, as it would put him in a better position with April. Might make fore some interesting plot moments, not to mention seeing both of their reactions to being switched.

Someone else suggested a Raph/Don switch, and that would have been a great idea, too. Now that I think about it, having the thing go nuts and just start randomly switching everyone around would have made for some crazy fun with the dialog!

*MikeandRaph87* · 06-22-2014, 07:45 PM

This is one of those plots that are reatedly seen in cartoons especially superhero related ones. Still its interesting to see what the mindswap will do. Why couldn't Raphael and Donatello briefly switch so Rob could have voiced Raphael? Missed opportunity.

Btw,was that Metalhead 2.0 that Donatello showed off plans for?

Nah, that was the turtle mech, it was mentioned in iTunes' description for Season 2. It's basically a giant fighting robot/mech suit that the turtles will be controlling from the inside to take on Kraang Prime.

Karai Samurai · 06-22-2014, 08:50 PM

I've been without cable for a while now so this is the first episode I've watched since Baxter mutated. I really need to catch up. Decent episode, but JESUS CHRIST ON A CRACKER does Leo sound bad! It's not the voice that's terrible it's the acting...why did Biggs have to go? I know he's probably busy with Orange is the New Black (love that show) but this new guy is trash. I'm loving April and Casey's interactions...very realistic. Casey reminds me of every 16 year old I knew growing up. The offer for a massage was on point. Why do you guys always do that? Anyway, decent. 7/10

I don't get it... Was she a week away from her period or something?

~~fridaynightdestination~~ · 06-22-2014, 09:26 PM

One thing that I think would've been cool is having this episode be a two-parter, and this episode ends with everyone being switched with someone. That would be a nice cliffhanger.

Was just a joke... On the assumption she might have been.

*CyberCubed* · 06-22-2014, 09:46 PM

I'm surprised they didn't go crazy at the end and have everyone switch bodies with the machine going out of control.

totally agree

Wretched Reptile · 06-22-2014, 10:09 PM

Pretty entertaining episode. Was much better than I expected, since I tend to loathe tired and recycled plots like this one. The guy doing the pigeon dance in the background during the beginning had me rolling in the floor.

Dominic definitely sounded better this week too. His delivery and overall vibe was much improved over his performance in last week's episode.

Midnight Mutant · 06-22-2014, 10:56 PM

I loved this episode! It had me laughing a LOT! It was so amusing and a great break from the seriousness of episodes like The return of Tiger claw.

The ONLY thing I wish this episode had more of, was the brain switching. I was really, really, REALLY hoping that there would be brain switching galore when Donnie was trying to fix April and Casey. Like he keeps messing up and switching everyone around. I would have loved to see Mikey in Raph's body or Leo's. Or Casey and Donnie switching or Leo and April or Donnie and Raph.

Ah well, still a good episode.
