It was a good episode. And who knows... they seem to be cramming in a lot of stuff per episode. Snakeweed and Karai. Karai, Kraang and Miss Campbell. Pulverizer, Shell Raiser and Fish Face. I wouldn't be surprised if the next episode somehow crams in the mutant roach and continues the Kraang plot as well.

BUT in the Archie books he did get whisked away to Stump's Asteroid after being swallowed by Cudley.

How cool would it be if he comes back with Wingnut and Screwloose?

*CyberCubed* · 03-01-2013, 07:46 PM

Leatherhead was also transported away on the transmat in the Image series. That's what I immediately thought when it happened.

And suddenly April not being human theory thread sounds plausible.

That was hilarious. I think I found that to be funniest moment of the series thus far.

Ugh, I hope not.

I really enjoyed this episode more than any other episode thus far. Some might say that too much was "crammed" into the episode, but I just look at it as cutting out the fat. Also, I'm finding "The Krang" to be the standout character(s) thus far, they kinda remind me of the droids in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars cartoon.

I can't wait for itunes to release this episode so I can take screencaps. That multiscreen shot of the turtles and Leatherhead was insanely EPIC.

*CyberCubed* · 03-01-2013, 08:25 PM

The scenes in the elevator shaft were great. I loved the darkness during the action kill shots.

Also its pretty obvious the robot teacher in the lobby was not the same one the turtles destroyed, they probably have many copies.

Yes please post it when you take it. Loved that pic.

Why the heck do the Kraang need to terraform the Earth? They seem to be able to breath the air fine.

*BabyTurtles* · 03-01-2013, 08:40 PM

d-did Mikey just go fully into his shell...!?

O_O I was just like " WHAT THE!!?" the whole time.... lol XD

The Kraang probably wanna terraform the earth in the toon the same reason as the comics. Their planet is dead/dying.

As for the episode. I loved it. One of my fave quotes is from the elevator "That which is known as access is granted to Kraang"

So Kirby ISN'T a scientist?? He's a Psychologist?! Why hasn't this been mentioned before??

*BabyTurtles* · 03-01-2013, 08:56 PM

I think my mind exploded from this episode......

Even if their planet was dying I don't see why they would want to kill everything on Earth, other than being evil for evil's sake.

That may be the first time we've seen that in any animated incarnation. It was pretty slick!

In fact, the only other time I can remember when it's happened in TMNT history is when Archie Raphael and Donatello do it to survive an explosion.

In the 3 part finale? Where 2 Turtles use the others as snowboards....

Oh boy, the writers of the new movie have been reading the Archie comics...and THAT'S what they got out of it.

Trying to squat on another planet doesn't sound like for evil's sake.
