Very good episode. The April/Casey subplot was cute, and it was funny to see Splinter giving Casey dating advice.

I was shocked to see Leonardo go ballastic on that robot after the fact it was over. I mean, it took Mikey and Raph to bodily restrain him. It kills me to watch him like this, and it's only the second episode of the season. There's a lot more to go, and from what I've heard, it only gets worse.

And the gouge on his shell, oh god. It looked liked a razor-saw sliced into it. It made me feel I was in pain from seeing it.

*laughs* Oh, if it's not too late, this would be make a good choice for the poll. "Yee-freakin'-haw!" It made me laugh when Raph said that because it's the closest thing to an actual swear word I've heard so far on the cartoon.

Very good episode. The turtles were more lethal when fighting. All those aliens being wiped out. yikes

The april/casey thing was ok. Splinter's advice was corny but effective. I wonder if they will have them get married. Maybe in season 5.

The don/jhanna thing was cute. Poor donny. He doesn't have much luck with the girls he has a crush on. He'll probably never see Jhanna again and April cares about Casey.

Leo's getting psyco! He almost killed Jhanna. I hope he snaps out of his funk . I miss the old Leo.

Nexts weeks episode looks ok. I guess the more gadets the turtles use the more toys they can sell.

if we really wanna get picky...Leo's shell injury shows that the scute and top layer of keratin was gouged very very deep...so why aren't we seeing BONE? It's drawn deep enough that we should see white.
Beeeeecause they don't feel like doing their research, and haven't a clue about turtle anatomy. :p

I've seen bone from under the shell from injuries, it's a little bloody and pretty scary to see.
I don't have turtles (I'm too afraid of hurting/accidentally mistreating them ), but I've seen pictures, and yeah, it's pretty icky.

Yeah, Leo's kinda lost it... shows that his connection with Karai ran pretty deep, and when it was so shaken, it took some of his sanity with it.

I guess he'll snap out of it eventually... I hope it doesn't take all season. And hopefully without mangling Karai..

Ren & Stimpy, while it never should've been a 'kid's show', used to have some fairly questionable language. They said stuff like "damn" and "crap", as well as "friggin'" and "freakin'".

I almost forgot the Lethal Weapon reference when Jhanna dislocated her shoulder and popped it back into place...

That was cool.

Not too bad an episode, considering the aliens-out-of-nowhere premise. I loved the Casey/April interaction. Although it was pretty predictable that Casey would mess up the kitchen (using 20 pots and pans for pancakes -- nice ), I still liked it. I'm glad that he's not an idiot this season -- so far (knock on wood).

I also am taking a liking to Leonardo's attitude. He's more violent, angry, serious, and brooding. Knowing how he is, this could boost his focus and concentration, turning him into that perfect weapon he craves to be.

Also nice was Donatello's little time in the proverbial spotlight. Yet, I think he wasn't enraptured by Jhana herself so much as her usage of technology. Is it just me, or did Jhana's voice get higher and squeakier as the show went on? She had a bit of bass in her tone at the beginning then changed into a Powerpuff girl near the end. Were my ears playing tricks on me?

Let's just hope that the city she got elected for isn't Townsville...

About Don... that's a good idea. Though I think he's just a mushy guy who is sad to see anyone he knows (even if he's known them for about half an hour) go... I mean, look how torn up he was about Kirby.

I didn't notice the voice change. Maybe we could argue that Earth air slowly messed up her voice? Like helium?

Weird how the guys didn't draw too much attention to it.
I can just see Mikey using that old turtle wax crack he made in the first movie.

Or in the old cartoon when a Neutrino nailed Donny to a wall.

Sorry I'm late. My pc isn't working the way it should and now using a different pc at the moment.

This episode is good, not sure which comic this is based off of. But had a lot of good stuff to it. I liked that Rock creature the most.

And I like how Mikey said something like "It's as sterdy as a...a rock".

And the part with Splinter giving advice to Casey was a nice moment. And I agree that the flowers did nicely .

Not to mention a cool cat fight between those 2 "candidate women". I knew those weapons would be lightsaber like weapons.

Anyways good episode. I can see the next episode with have those bird men shown in "Envity below".

Yeah, but the way she did it was the way Mel Gibson's character Riggs did it. He would slam his shoulder against a hard surface.

I heard that next week's episode will be adapted from TMNT #28 vol 1. I'm not really sure if this is true but at least we got somethin'. I hope that answers any questions you may have.

I JUST CHECKED MY TMNT COLLECTED BOOK VOLUME 7 AND FOUND THAT ISSUE (#28 ). THE EPISODE BASED ON THAT ISSUE IS ACTUALLY SLATED TO AIR ON OCTOBER 1ST.

EPISODE #82 "SONS OF THE SILENT AGE"
The Turtles face a species of the deep, and when April gets too close to the action, she grasps a truth behind the current of environmental consequence.

They probably don't want to push over-sensitive-a-bit-are-we-Leonardo right now. And they may have gotten all that out of their systems when the bandages first came off, which is presumably at least a few days before this ep, or as long as it took them to heal up to this point. Hope nobody got their face rearranged. :p

Two weeks from now. Next Week's is "A Wing and a Prayer", then "Sons of the Silent Age". Oh man, I'm climbing the walls to see that one... my favorite! Beware of babbling.

Hopefully, we'll see why all these Elentian critters are coming out of the woodwork all of a sudden..

damn again I had to work in the morning and missed this eppy. DAMN YOU WAL-MART!! **shakes fist at sky**

Any way this eppisode sounds interesting, from what I could gather from what others had said I guess Donatello got to lead a just a little bit. I always believed that Donatello would be good secomd in comand.

Question some one said that Leonardo actually spoke a little in this eppy, overall just how often did Leonardo speak in these last two episode?
