Here's a more complete version of the good genes arc I thought up.

Episode 1 An unexplained mutant outbreak in the city. The Turtles are dealing with it and wondering if the Kraang are back. While dealing with the mutant outbreak Donnie gets scratched by one of the mutants but they don't think anything of it. Donnie studies one the outbreak mutants and finds that the mutagen that mutated it was man made. Scene shifts to Bishop who is overseeing some whitish ooze that is being pumped into the sewers.

Episode 2 Next episode deals with the turtles trying to deal with the outbreak mutants and trying to find the source of the outbreak before the city becomes more effected by it.

Episode 3 The Mutanimal's return to help out with the out break. It is discovered that a human has been mutated, the said mutant is reported and contained by a man working for Bishop named Dirk Savage.

Episode 4 Next Episode The Turtles are trying to succeed in securing more outbreak mutants when they are confronted with Bebop and Rocksteady who are also trying to capture outbreak mutants.

Episode 5 Next episode Donnie starts developing cold like symptoms. Episode focuses on April and Casey. Casey asks April if she like's Donnie better then him.

Episode 6 Next episode, Turtles try to contact Mutanimals with no luck. Patrols have become more dangerous with the Anti-mutant task forces roaming the city.

Episode 7 During a mission, Turtles are captured by Dirk Savage and brought to Bishop. All of them are placed in separate cells. Leo is placed in between Rockwell and Mikey, Donnie is placed across from Raph. Raph is next door to Pigeon Pete. Leather head and Slash are on either side of Donnie. Both Slash and Leatherhead have been experimented on which causes them to go into fugue states. They learn that Bishop is the person who created the outbreak mutagen. The reason for it is because after the Kraang got the jump on the EPF and mind controlled everyone who was sent to New York, the government wanted to pull the plug on their organization. The outbreak was only to be used as a means of keeping funding going. Unfortunately the spread went faster then anticipated. Donnie's cell is opened and two EPF guards start to drag Donnie way for experimentation. Raph tells the Bishop to do experiments on him instead. Bishop however ignores this which causes Slash to go into a fugue state as he attempts to break out of his cell. April, Casey, and Splinter arrive and save everyone. Slash tells everyone to get out of the building, he was going to save their brother. When the building explodes everyone is worried that Slash and Donnie didn't make it until they see Slash walk out cradling a weak and feverish Donnie in his arms.

Episode 8 Next episode Donnie is sick in bed. Focus on Raph, Casey, and Slash. April's promutant blog comes to Joan Grody's attention and she personally asks April for an interview about her "Mutant Turtle Friends" April however refuses because she knows Grody would twist her words. Grody gets frustrated and tells April she's only giving the public what it wants to hear.

Episode 9 Next episode focus on Mikey. Mikey is worried about Donnie's illness and feels something is off about his brother. Raph brushes it off as nothing, but Leo is concerned that Mikey may be on to something. Rockwell and April are also concerned that this may not be a typical case of the flu. Further anti-mutant task forces events.

Episode 10 and 11 Next Episode Mid-Season Finally. While the other turtles are on patrol. April, Casey, and Splinter are staying behind to look after Donnie. When Splinter, April, and Casey are in another room conversing while Donnie is asleep, Donnie's eyes open and glow red before he screams. Casey contacts Raph with his distress signal. Everyone returns to the lair and find it trashed, and a shaken Casey trying to comfort a distressed April and Splinter. The three of them tell the other Turtles that Donnie transformed into some freaking looking monster before racing out of the lair. Turtle contact the mutanimals, Rockwell examines the bandages Donnie had been wearing and the tells that the other Turtles that some of bishops mutagen had entered Donnie's blood stream and that it was at war with his already mutated DNA. It was possible the illness was a catalyst for the transformation process to take place. Rockwell then shows a large containment unit and says he that he built that with Donatello as a means of capturing and studying larger mutations. He never thought that it would have to be used on Donatello.

Episode 12: Donnie has been captured and contained. He's able to shape shift to his normal form, but each time he returns to his second mutation it's harder for him to become his normal self again. Even when he's normal he refuses to leave the containment for fear of accidentally harming his loved ones.
Rockwell is working to devise a cure and yes he does turn to Donnie for advice when Donnie's in his right mind. The whole situation reminds Leo about Karai and how he failed her. He refuses to let that happen to his brother.

Episode 13: Mikey centered episode. Mikey comes into the lab and talks with Donatallo. Donnie notices that Mikey is strangely subdued. Mikey insists it's nothing but breaks down and comments he's scared that Donnie's not going to get better. Donnie hasn't given up hope just yet...but he has acknowledged that there is a very likely chance that he would be lost to this. Mikey then supplies fond memories as a way of keeping Donnie with them longer which helps ease the pall of grief that rests in the room....but doesn't ease the fear and frustration with it all. Leo and Raph listen to the memories and also have their own childhood memories of Donnie. At the end Donnie pleads that if a cure can't be found, then he trusts them to know what needs to be done. Both of them understand what Donnie is saying but they are uncomfortable with it.

Episode 15: April talks to Donnie, when Donnie reverts back to his savage monster self. Mikey offers Donnie some pizza as a way to help calm him down however Donnie reached out of the open trey hatch and grabs Casey's leg and attempts to rip it off. Everyone tries to get Casey away from Donnie while Splinter helps Donnie find himself again. Donnie returns to himself and is horrified by what he has nearly done. Leo remains behind while everyone else leaves the room, April over hears Leo trying to reassure his brother that everything will be fine and they would see their way past this. Donnie however says "You know as well as I that there isn't a cure, Leo. I rather end it as myself...not a mindless creature. I know this is a heavy task to ask of you...but I can't keep fighting the monster I have become. Leo simply responds by saying "Where there is life...there is hope."

Episode 16: Donnie's condition is getting worse by the moment harder for himnd to maintain himself. Donnie at one point breaks into tears and tells his brothers that he's scared and that he doesn't want it to end...not like this. Leo risks opening the containment unit and giving his brother a comforting hug and reassures him everything would be alright. During the hug however Donnie realizes he's starting to transform. He immedately and roughly pushes his older brother away from him. Raph realizes whats going on and closes the containment unit before Donnie can escape. Rockwell notices this tranfomation was quicker then the other ones. This means Donnie is secumbing to his mutation. Leo realizes they have no choice...they need to find Bishop.

Episode 17: April comforts Mikey while Leo, Raph, Slash and Leatherhead all go out to locate Bishop. Rockwell is pouring over Donnie's notes about Bishops mutagen in attempts to find a cure.

Episode 18: Donnie is brought to Bishop for a cure. Casey is surprised that Bishop is his father. Dirk Savage brashly says there isn't a cure and it would be easier to just put their brother down. He misfires and breaks open the contaiment unit instead. The other Turtles, Slash, Leatherhead, and Pete go out to track down and secure Donnie before he causes a panic. Casey wants to go out but Bishop won't let him. So he stays with April, Splinter, and Rockwell but he gets it in his mind his father is not the man he thought he was.

Episode 19-20 finally: Joan Grody is reveling in the hype that her reports on the outbreak and the mutant turtles are bringing. Becomes even more happy to hear news of a giant monster turtle attacking the city. Leo in the mean time tells everyone don't hurt Donnie unless you absolutely have to after all this is their brother. Raph says he doesn't think that would be the problem...he's more worried about Donnie hurting him. Rockwell is able to create a cure and everyone rushes off to go administer it. Joan Grody is reporting on the monster Turtle, April however snatchs the mic from her and tells the camera "Do not believe a word that woman was saying...she is lying about the Turtles and only saying what would gain her ratings." Rockwell uses his psychic powers to subdue Donnie so her administer the cure while Slash and Leatherhead held him down.
Bishop shows up with a group of the EPF and tells they are all under arrest for public disturbance and public endangerment. Casey tells Bishop he can't do this. Bishop tells Casey he needs to choose between his family or these mutants. Casey yells back "I don't need to choose...these mutants are my family." The Turtles are able to escape in a blast of concealment smoke. Back at the lair Donnie wakes up to find everyone around him. Casey looks on as April tends to Donnie as he recovers. Raph asks Casey if he is okay with this outcome. Casey states that maybe he always knew April liked Donnie more...

I honestly don't know how the next season should play out, but this is what should happen by the end of the third. Karai has been somewhat cured, but even though she’s normal, she still has the power to shapeshift into a serpent. The main problem now is Shredder. With the help of Kraang Sub-Prime (Yes, still alive), Shredder and the Foot team up with the Kraang to capture both people that benefit them: April and Karai. At the same time, the Kraang are trying to take over the world, while the Foot tries to commit an act of terrorism. This could be a new take on City at War.

Donnie gets to use the retro-mutagen on Timothy, bringing him back to his normal human self. However, Timothy is angry at him for doing this because now he feels his monstrous mutation changed him for the better. How he does that, well . . . he kind of strangles Don and tries to head to the mutagen. April comes in and does beat the guy down to defend Donnie, but Timothy throws her aside, grabs a capsule of mutagen and becomes the monster again, but this time, bigger, and a lot more hideous. So, then he leaves the lair and heads to the city to wreak havoc. Now, Donnie and April will have to battle Mutagen Man before the monster starts running to a spot where the mayor is giving a speech. Donnie is unseen, but April makes sure the politician is safe and that Mutagen Man is tamed. However, Mutagen Man begins to see a familiar face: his mother. He stops and whispers, “Mom?” Don shoots out some retro-mutagen and turns him back into a human. As he looks at her, she embraces her son and cries happily holding him tight. Everything seems to be fine for Don and April now, but chaos ensues when April is taken captive by the Kraang. Now, it’s up to Donnie to rescue her. However, when he gets to TCRI, he discovers April fighting on her own with her powers and kunoichi skills. He joins in, but tries to express his feelings about her, ending it with she belongs with Casey. April responds, “Why do I have to choose? I like all you guys.” “You like me AND Casey?” Donnie asks. Then April says, “I mean you, Casey, your brothers, Sensei!” As they fight, April tells him how much she has admired each of everyone she cares about, and though this is not what Donnie expected to hear, he realizes it makes sense. Everything seems to be running smoothly during their encounter. However, one of the Kraang aims a projectile or laser device at April. While the beam doesn’t kill her, she discovers that her powers have been stripped away. This angers Donnie and he goes all out on the Kraang. This should be an awesome moment for him. When he’s done, he goes over to April and asks if she’s okay. She responds, “Actually, yeah. I’m great.” Here, she’s glad she lost her powers, and that makes Donnie surprised, yet relieved that she’s fine. (I’ll be honest. I have this here because I am getting tired of her becoming the next Phoenix, if you know what I mean).

Now we go to Mikey and Raph. Their mission is to rescue Casey Jones from this man who has threatened his family. At this point, it could be Hun, but the two turtles believe it’s the mob boss (the one we’ve seen in “Casey Jones vs. The Underworld”). Now here, we should see some good major bonding between the two. When they finally get to their destination to rescue Casey, Raph and Mikey encounter Fishface and Rahzar. But you might not expect this, but Raph fights Rahzar and Mikey fights Fishface. Like the switch-up? Now, both turtles do defeat them, but since all of us want something great with Raphael on this series, he proves to be a real badass when knocking the crap out of Rahzar, but also . . . HUN! Mikey does fight alongside his brother, but most of the time, he’s preoccupied by Foot Ninjas and the Mob Boss. Mikey does prove to be highly skilled when he thinks of a clever way to outsmart the gangster and throws him down. Now, that’s Mikey’s way of “whacking” his opponent. Sorry. I don’t see him killing anyone, but if anyone gets the joke, that’s awesome. Anyway, Raph saves Casey, but in this all glory clash between him and Hun. Trust me, Raph will do something so awesome to kick this guy’s behind, the poor Purple Dragon leader won’t see it coming. Probably some kind of secret ninja move that Raph decided to use for the first time to defeat his opponent. When that’s over, Casey and Raph bask in their ninja action alongside Mikey to escape. Here, we really get to see a time where Raph thanks Mikey for believing in him, and looks back at Casey to give a friendship fist pump that suddenly turns into a hug. Maybe that’s the comical part, but it will give something more to Raph.

To the biggest part before the ending: Leo, Splinter, and Karai infiltrate the Foot tower (that’s right, the Foot has moved to TCRI since they’re doing business with Kraang Sub-Prime). Things seem to go as planned, but Tiger Claw is leading Bebop and Rocksteady, and it’s not going well for them. Tiger Claw happens to find them a complete annoyance. While Shredder is aware of what’s going on, he feels the need to be in hiding so he won’t be encountered. Too bad, Splinter is looking for him, but he has to fight off Foot Bots in order to go after his enemy. Meanwhile, Leo and Karai work together to distract Bebop and Rocksteady so they can break a portal that leads to this hellish world. Before this, they try to trace where Shredder’s latest weapon of terrorism is hidden. But as they do this, Karai confesses to Leo that she was sorry for being wrong all these years, and that she denied something that she never mentioned to him: she really did like him. Leo forgives her like this, “Hey. It’s not your fault. You didn’t know. But I will admit, I was pretty stupid when I tried getting your attention that first time we met.” She gets closer to him and responds, “No, you weren’t. You were right. I just didn’t think you’d be like, you know . . . my brother.” Leo smiles and says, “Then, I guess that closes the book on us.” Suddenly, they find what they’re looking for, and then that’s when they encounter Tiger Claw and the “two morons,” as Leo calls Shredder’s henchmen. Their fight shows Leo being the one of the best fighters against Tiger Claw, nearly pummeling him. Karai, however, not only uses her ninja skills on the pig and rhino, but her snake powers to mislead them. So the fight does get intense, but Bebop and Rocksteady get beaten so hard, that they’re thrown out of the room before Leo and Karai lock the door. Karai makes the finishing blow on Tiger Claw and Leo opens up a portal that sucks the bounty hunter in. Now, it’s not the hellish world, but instead, probably the Next Mutation universe. I don’t know. That would be hilarious to see his reaction at those turtles. He’d probably scream, “What is happening here?!” Back at the tower, Karai asks if Leo learned to open the portal from Space Heroes, but his response is simple and sensible: “Well, when you’ve got a brother who’s a genius, you can learn a great amount from him.” Suddenly, the door opens and comes in Splinter, exhausted. We discover that he found the room where Shredder was in, but during his attack, he also found out that he was battling a hologram, and that the real Shredder is in another room of the building. Sadly, he doesn’t have the clues to search for him quickly.


Continuing on the next post . . .

Warning! If you haven't read the top post, you might be confused. Check at the previous post if you want the whole story idea.


So, time kind of passes, and all the turtles and friends unite. Now, they find themselves in a battle they don’t want to be in. Splinter, April, and Casey are attacked by Kraang and Foot Soldiers, but by accident, they fall into this secret passageway that show familiar faces: real humans of the Kraangs’ bodies. The real Irma is there, and so is an older woman and a man that looks like a human Kraang in a suit named Norman. April and Casey get them out while Splinter keeps watch of the room. Yes, they are a little frightened by his appearance, but they quickly show some trust after Splinter explains, “Don’t worry. We’re the good guys. You can trust us.” Throughout, April, Casey, Splinter, Irma, and a few other humans try to foil the Kraang and the Foot. As this goes on, Shredder finds Bebop and Rocksteady and immediately grabs them into his hideout room, where the whole battle is on camera. Here, he asks Bebop and Rocksteady if they secured Kraang Sub-Prime’s territory, which is a large control room containing dangerous chemicals. They say, “Yes,” but Shredder begins to have his suspicions.

Downstairs, where the main enemy is at, Karai and the turtles stop to take their chances on more of the bad guys. Together, the turtles show great stealth. So does Karai, but as a snake more than a human. Once they discover the room, they realize that in order to kill Kraang Sub-Prime, someone has to go in there and distract him and blow the whole thing up. Leo offers to go in, but Raph refuses and says, “No way, Leo! You’ve done enough! Last time, you almost lost your head from Shredder! I’m not losing you again! Not this time!” Leo feels it’s the best way to keep his family safe, but Don refuses, too. “He’s right, Leo,” he says. “I know you mean well, but we love you, bro. I’m not willing to see you go down this time.” Leo and Raph kind of get into an argument, but not a heated one, until Mikey says, “I’ll do it!” They tell him he’s being crazier than Leo, but the youngest one responds, “Look! I’ve been an important part of this team! I may not be the brightest, but I sure can be the bravest!” Leo freaks, of course, “No way! Not my little brother!” The argument does start to pick up, but Karai steps forward and says, “I’ll go.” They stop and turn to see her. She looks serious and sure of herself. “I’ll take care of the alien.” Leo, a little shocked, steps forward: “Why?” he asks. “Sensei won’t allow it.” Karai sighs and responds, “I may be his daughter, but he didn’t have me the same way he did with you. You’re the ones that he loves. Besides, since you are a, you know, team, why would you wanna break that?” She goes into the room, and the door shuts. Leo starts pounding on the door, because none of the turtles can open it. Karai has blocked the door and no one can enter. Instead, they watch their sister fight back as a snake against the evil warlord from Dimension X. After Karai makes her final blow, Kraang Sub-Prime shoots a laser into the chemicals, creating an explosive concoction. As the room slowly becomes engulfed in flames, Karai transforms back into a human and smiles at the turtles. She then closes her eyes.

The flames take her away as the room continues to fall apart. From the hidden room, Shredder says, “NOOOOOOO!” From a platform above the fire, Splinter cries, “NOOOOOO!” Lastly, in the room where the turtles are, Leo, with his hand on the glass, screams at the top of his lungs as tears stream down his face: “NOOOOOOOO!” Everything inside the room is in ruins. Leo continues to bang onto the window, screaming for Karai. Don quickly comes over to snap his brother out of it, but Leo gives him a look like he’s going to hit him. However, he lowers his fist, tilts his head down, and instantly sobs into Donnie’s chest. “I’m so sorry, Leo,” says a choked-up Don, patting his brother’s back. “We’re all sorry,” responds Raph, trying to hold back the tears. However, poor Mikey breaks down in front of him and says, “She was our sister, man! She was our only sister!” Raph comes over to hug Mikey, who just like Leo, is crying on his brother’s plastron. Up top, Splinter starts crying into his own hand and says, “I can’t believe it. Miwa. My daughter. Gone.” April comes over and comforts him. Casey and Irma look down to see the scene, but she does feel bad, even though she’s confused. At the secret room, Shredder silently, as if he was crying, says, “Karai.” Then he turns around at Bebop and Rocksteady: “This is all your fault! You fools are fired!” He starts throwing things at them before they leave the room. Shredder turns around and takes his blade to destroy the computer screen with his blades. Back downstairs, Leo continues crying on Don’s chest. A door to the room opens, and out comes Splinter, all blood shot from the tears to see his sons, they all look at him, showing blood shot eyes. He stares at Leo and says, “What happened?” Leo tries to speak, but constantly has to fight the tears and sobbing. “Um,” he says, “She did what she had to. For us.” Splinter understands what he means, but he can’t help to see his son so upset. The two embrace one another and hold on to each other as April and Casey start to become teary-eyed themselves. “Oh, my son,” says Splinter as he sniffs. Leo can hardly control his feelings and screams, “I tried to stop her! I’m sorry, father! I’m so sorry I let you down!” Leo sobs harder into Splinter’s chest. “No, Leonardo,” the rat replies. “This was her decision. If it weren’t for her, none of you would be here.”


After the pain stops, the turtles, Splinter, April, and Casey free the humans to go home. As the remaining begin to plan what to do when they get home, Leo stops and says, “Home is nowhere now. Not in the same way like the past.” He turns to his brothers with a stern face and starts giving this monologue. He then ends with, “Until Shredder is finished for good, not only is the city at war, but we, too, are at war!” The episode ends there.



So, guys. What do you think?

I thought this would contain all that we wanted – some good Raph scenes and storylines, the end of Apriltello, another great (dis)honorable homage, more humans, Timothy is cured, Irma being real, and the turtles in tears. Feel free to respond.

Wow. Dont know where to start with these

@ Bauer

That's probably the most likely Apritello ending I've seen suggested. I'd have to say that although I would love to see the return of Kraang Sub Prime, I dont know if I would want to see the Kraang back as an Empire scale threat so soon when there are other villainous groups to try out first.

Quite like the idea of Mutagen man remaining a badguy even after being cured, but I would also be happy with a happy ending for Timothy as well. Good idea though

I dunno if you managed to give Raph enough though, if you were aiming for him to have more story focus. A lot of it feels very Leo centred for me - mostly because its focusing on Karai. Maybe having Karai and Raph be seperated from the others for a while and forced to work together. That may bring them together more as brother and sister and make her eventual sacrifice that much more painful; especially as he's the one who distrusted her most.


@ V
The more people talk about the Good Gene's storyline the more I think it would work really well for Nick and as a means of introducing Bishop as a villain (especially if he was the one behind it in the first place)
I was wondering if it could be altered to mimic some aspects of the 2014 movie, even giving Bishop some similarities to Sachs.

Do you think that it would work to have mutated Donnie talk with Karai? I was thinking in your line up at about Ep12? Rather than have him be recaptured so quickly that he instead meets Karai and they have a quiet moment talking about the 'monsters inside all of us'. It just seems that she's been through very similar and it might be interesting to have that parallel.

Also I think it would work to avoid the cure seeming too easy (as it was a bit with Battle of New York) if you were to tie in that two of the turtles are initially infected. Don turns into a monster, but the other turtle (Mikey seems a good choice here) turns out to be immune and that way his blood is key to creating a cure (again referencing the 2014 movie). I was thinking Mikey especially as you could tie in his experience from the exposure to rejected retromutagen (shellacne) to explain why he is immune - plus that way it self references the show and makes the shellacne episode seem less like filler Plus Mikey's fear of potentially turning into a monster like Don could be interesting to see, especially if his immunity was a bit 'touch and go'.

Hey, thanks! I will admit, I like Raph, but I really didn't have a fully fleshed idea for him. I do like the idea of him teaming up with Karai, but that should be after she and Leo close the book on their past. We could always have Tiger Claw escape the portal to fight back ,but Hun should be Raph's nemesis. We should have him confront Karai, too.

Also, Timothy is back to normal.

was thinking over the last portion of my idea and instead of working on leos vision being restored in the beginning of the following season, decided on eps would still focus on it but potentially lead 2 demon shredder being brought in

Ep 27 - don examines leos eyes thoroughly and finds out that leo can still see changes in the amount of light, however leo starts having a mental relapse, which 2 their dismay, forces them 2 use the derivative

Ep 28 - after hearing about his relapse and still unable 2 see, w/ some guidance, heads 2 his room and refuses 2 come out/don starts working on possible cures

Ep 29 - leo finally stops dwelling on wat he almost did 2 his family, april stops by, while leo is being guided over 2 the couch, he ends up falling over the couch and rolls in2 tv, causing it 2 fall over on him and some glass pierces his leg, while raph and mikey rush 2 leos side, don, april, and splinter come out of the lab after hearing the racket, at the sight, splinter flattens his ears 2 his head in concern while don darts over and after the tv is pulled off of leo, checks out any damage, after almost nonstop groaning from leo, don manages 2 pull out all the broken glass though while doing so, finds out leo ended up breaking his leg

Ep 30 - after trying out over a dozen possible cures, leos hope starts diminishing, as a way of trying 2 cheer leo up, april and splinter start helping him w/ focusing on his other senses (though still having trouble w/ pinpointing the direction of a sound cause the condition of his eyes is also distorting his hearing) and after how leo explains that he can feel sources of heat, start helping him on telling apart the masses of heat

Ep 31 - while april is helping leo on being able 2 feel around 4 more changes in bodies of temperatures, when a darkening mass appears around leos feet and spreads out, they find out that he can also feel changes in terrain/surfaces through the shadowy mass, april and leo tell splinter and the others this, don mentions about how in the future they saw, raph had control over the shadows and after the the failed attempt on keeping that future from happening, leo is showing signs of being able 2 do the same although he cant figure out y leo is nearly blind, after don finishes up, leo explains that its not just his sight that is affected but his hearing as well, after a long debate, leo tries pushing the grey clouds out of his head and is momentarily able 2 push them out enough that it almost covers his head but then the clouds recede back in2 his head

Ep 32 - with don having trouble finding a viable cure, splinter sees Leo starting 2 become depressed so he has Leo start some meditating sessions w/ him in hopes of cheering Leo up

Ep 33 - after hrs of practice, though leos vision hasnt gotten much better, he is able 2 hear better than he could be4 and can easily tell the difference in his brothers heat sources and their actions, w/ some convincing, they go up top looking 4 some action while simultaniously working on further improving leo skills, while running across the rooftops, leo feels that something is off and insists that they head east, keeping leo close by, as they near the docks, raph keeps leo from falling off a building, after they arrive at the docks, leo points them in the direction of a nearby warehouse

Ep 34 - once inside, they see rat king holding a blood red jewel and talking about how he will become unstoppable w/ the heart of tengu but stops when the rat king turns toward them, be4 leo has a chance 2 feel it, a rat crawls on a crate in front of him, rat king then smirks and laughs at how he isnt the only 1 blind now, raph growls at him and mikey states that leo is only nearly blind, which earns a smack from raph, be4 leo states that he may be nearly blind but that he has more of a advantage than be4 and easily surrounds rat king w/ shadows, forgetting about the heart of tengu, rat king barely manages 2 escape from leos shadows and after leo is distracted, has his rat minions fight the others while he takes off, during the fight, some of the shadows leo is using get 2 close 2 the heart of tengu and r sucked in

Ep 35 - during a meditation session, splinter looks deep in2 leos mind and finds leos consciousness deeply encased in shadows, splinter helps in the ways he can but is unable 2 push away all the shadows that r around leo, waking up, splinter sees leos eyes no longer glassy and a tear runs down his face, leo then hugs him, overjoyed w/ being able 2 see again, and thanks him be4 running out and playfully pounces on mikey... that night, leo has a dream of a massive dark figure using him against his brothers and is unable 2 free himself from its grip while simultaniously at the docks the heart of tengu turns black, rising up in the air and shadows pour out of it forming the demon shredder

I was wondering if it could be altered to mimic some aspects of the 2014 movie, even giving Bishop some similarities to Sachs.

Do you think that it would work to have mutated Donnie talk with Karai? I was thinking in your line up at about Ep12? Rather than have him be recaptured so quickly that he instead meets Karai and they have a quiet moment talking about the 'monsters inside all of us'. It just seems that she's been through very similar and it might be interesting to have that parallel.

Also I think it would work to avoid the cure seeming too easy (as it was a bit with Battle of New York) if you were to tie in that two of the turtles are initially infected. Don turns into a monster, but the other turtle (Mikey seems a good choice here) turns out to be immune and that way his blood is key to creating a cure (again referencing the 2014 movie). I was thinking Mikey especially as you could tie in his experience from the exposure to rejected retromutagen (shellacne) to explain why he is immune - plus that way it self references the show and makes the shellacne episode seem less like filler Plus Mikey's fear of potentially turning into a monster like Don could be interesting to see, especially if his immunity was a bit 'touch and go'.
You give some good arguments and suggestion.

however there are somethings that discredit them. First being the suggestion that Mikey's blood holds the cure. This is a good suggestion I don't have any problem with it.

But the big issue is that the mutagen Bishop used was man made so if Mikey has an immunity it would be to the Kraang mutagen, not a man made one.

The illness Donnie gets as a result is because the ooze that gets into his body and violently reacts against the alien mutagen already in his DNA. The turtles just assume its a normal cold that just seems to be sticking around longer then it should. (Which by rights should have been a red flag)

Originally the out break ooze was caused when Bishop created a fake alien invasion in order to get continued funding for the EPF. When the fake aliens were defeated they would puff up like a zit and explode into a white goo that later gets swept into the sewers creating an unintentional mutant outbreak.

When the Turtles arrive looking for a cure for their brother. Bishop tells them that he has a cure, (he actually doesn't) but the Turtles have to get something for him first.

As for the cure seeming too easy leatherhead (who is a genius in the 2k3 version) is able to devise a cure after looking at Stockman's attempts to develop a cure. Since in the nick show it's Rockwell who is the a rival genius sometimes friend of Donatello I can see him looking over notes and observations that Donnie has made with Bishops mutagen. Perhaps even the Fugitoid could be involved on helping develop a cure.

For Karai the hope is that she would be freed from the Shredders clutches and yes she could parallel her experience with what Donnie is going through. And when Donnie starts asking his brothers to put him out of his misery if there is no hope for a cure. Leo and Raph honestly wouldn't go through with it because this is their brother and they are all they have.

Karai could however understand Donnie's reasoning and tell Leo about her experience with her mutation. And while he may not like the concept or agree with it. He still has to consider what is best for his brother and wouldn't it be better to die as ones self rather then losing ones self to the mind of a beast.

And Karai in turn can sympathize with Donnie about his predicament.
