Season 1
Rise of The Turtles (Part I)
- (Leonardo and Michelangelo are sparing.)
- Michelangelo: Oh, Yeah! Michelangelo is on the move! You don't know what to do! I'm here! I'm there! I could be anywhere! How do you stop what you can't even see?
- Leonardo: (Getting Michelangelo in the gut with the pommel of his Katana handle) Like that.
- Michelangelo: (On the floor, breath knocked out of him) Good one, Leo.
- (Raphael and Donatello are sparing.)
- Raphael: (popping neck and shoulder joints) Alright, Donnie, put down the staff, and no-one gets hurt!
- Donatello: Ahh, you said that last time, and then you hurt me.
- Raphael: Yeah... but less then I would have.
- Donatello: Yeah, right!
- (Later, Raphael wins the spar, and snaps Donnie's staff in two.)
- Donatello: Should have dropped the staff?
- Raphael: (In confirmation) Should have dropped the staff.
- (Raphael and Leonardo are about to spar.)
- Leonardo: Onegaishimasu.
- Raphael : What ever you say.
- (Spars have finished, Raphael won.)
- Splinter: (Off-screen) Ya Me! You all did very well.
- Raphael : But I did better.
- Splinter: This is about self-improvement, Raphael, it is not about winning and losing.
- Raphael : (Flushed with success) I know, sensei, but I won and they lost.
- (Splinter hooks one of his clawed fingers under Raphael's jaw.)
- Raphael : Aah, aah, aah, but whats really important is that we all did our best. Good job everybody! (Splinter lets go.) Aah!
- Splinter: Heh, heh, heh, heh.
Rise of The Turtles (Part II)
- April: (Hammering on her and her father's cell door) Hey! You can't keep us in here like this! We know our rights!
- Kirby O'Neil: Honey, I don't think they care about that, April.
- Shredder: So, my old enemy is in New York. And training his own army! At last, I can finish what I started, so long ago. Prepere my jet. I'm going to visit an old friend.
Turtle Temper
- Splinter: Anger is self-destructive.
- Raphael: I always thought it was others-destructive.
- Splinter: Only this time... Leonardo, Donatello and Michelangelo, insult Raphael.
- Donatello: (Confused) Wait, insult... him?
- Splinter: Yes.
- Donatello: And he can't fight back?
- Splinter: No.
- Donatello: (Smiling to Leo) I'm feeling good about this plan.
- Raphael: You understand me, don't you, Spike? Chew on your leaf if you understand me.
- [Spike chews on leaf]
- Raphael: Yeah, I thought so.
- Splinter: [Suddenly appearing behind him] I understand you, too.
- Raphael: Seriously, you gotta knock or something!
- Splinter: Let me tell you a story.
- Raphael: Sensei, I'm not really in the mood for a story.
- Splinter: Spike, chew on your leaf if you're in the mood for a story.
- [Spike chews on leaf.]
- Splinter: Very well. When I was a young man, I fell in love with a woman.
- Raphael: Oh! Is it that late already? [Tries to leave]
- Splinter: Sit!
- [Raph sits down and Splinter continues.]
- Splinter: Her name was Tang Shen. But I wasn't the only one in love with her. There was another man competing for her attention: Oroku Saki.
- Raphael: Shredder.
- Splinter: And one day, he insulted me in front of her. He called me many things. I felt I couldn't let his words go unanswered. I lost my temper, and overtime, our rivalry festered into hatred. Until Shredder sought to finish me, and I lost my beloved Tang Shen.
- Raphael: But it wasn't your fault. Shredder insulted you. You had no choice
- Splinter: No choice? I could have chose to ignore him. I could have chose to let his words wash over me like a river over stone. But no, it was I who turned his words into weapons. That was the choice I made. What choice will you make?
- Raphael: Wow, I didn't think this guy couldn't get any uglier!
- Spider Bytez: Hey! It's the Kung-Fu Frog with the salad-tongs!
- Raphael: Hey! It's the stupid loudmouth who's about to get his butt kicked!
New Friend, Old Enemy
- Raphael: Are you an idiot? Wait, let me rephrase that. You are an idiot!
- Donatello: You can't show yourself to a Human.
- Michelangelo: Why not?
- Donatello: Because they'll freak the heck out, that's why not.
- Michelangelo: No they won't. I'm not so scary.
- Raphael: You're an ugly green mutant, armed with ninja weapons.
- Michelangelo: Look, This guy is gonna see that I'm just a regular cat loving dude like him.
- [Splinter tackles Leo to the ground with his staff]
- Splinter: Was that fair?
- Leonardo: (On the ground) No.
- Splinter: Did I win?
- Leonardo: I see your point.
- [Splinter helps him up]
- Splinter: Seek victory, not fairness.
I Think His Name is Baxter Stockman
- Raphael: Ugh, I can't believe we're stuck down here for a whole week!
- Donatello: Guys, guys! You wanna see what I made?
- Raphael: This is how bored I am. Yes Donnie, I do.
- Splinter: The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm", unless you need to do harm, then do lots of harm!
- Michelangelo: Excuse me, Sensei but ninjas never had to go up against guys in armor.
- [Sees painting.]
- Michelangelo: Oh, I mean ninjas always had to go up against guys in armor.
- Raphael: Nice save.
- Leonardo: Sensei, what was their secret?
- Splinter: They understood that you do not fight the armer, you fight the man inside.
- [Turtles stare at Mikey who looks at them.]
- Michelangelo: Why are we all looking at each other?
Metalhead
- Donatello: How am I supposed to fight advanced alien technology with a stupid stick!?
- Donatello: With all due respect senei I can't keep fighting alien technology with a six foot staff. I was hoping to upgrade my weapon.
- Splinter: Hm... a seven foot staff, interesting...
- Donatello: No I meant using modern technology.
- Splinter: Ah, a solar powered staff.
- Donatello: I'm serious sensei.
- Splinter: I know. And yes you may upgrade your weapon.
- Donatello: That's totally unfair! (realises) Did you just say yes?
- April: Hey, guys, check out this post I got.
- Raphael: Hang on, April, I just have to destroy Lame-onardo.
- [Raph beats Leo with a game and does a victory dance.]
Monkey Brains
- Leonardo: I bet that wasn't on his flow chart.
- [Flips board over and examines flow chart.]
- Leonardo: Oh, it is. That is spooky...
- April: Carefull Donnie, that's a dangerous mutant!
- Donatello: That makes two of us!
Never Say Xever
- Donatello: Are you saying turtles are slow?
- Michelangelo: That's a hurtful stereotype.
- Leonardo: Trust us, April, we are better keeping a low profile. We figured out people treat us better if they don't know we exist.
- April: Sorry, I'm just so exicted to finally get you out of the sewer for a change.
- Raphael: What are you talking about? We go out all the time.
- April: "Yeah, but tonight your gonna do something besides hitting people.
- Raphael: (dissapointed) Aww...
- Leonardo: No more "Mr. Nice Turtle".
- Raphael: Yes! I never liked "Mr. Nice Turtle".
The Gauntlet (Enter Shredder)
- April: I am being hunted... by a giant pigeon.
- [Raphael laughs but pauses as he notices nobody is laughing.]
- Raphael: Really, I can't be the only one who's finds that funny?
- Donatello: It's not funny Raph, there's a creature out there trying to hurt my April!"
- [April stares.]
- Donatello: I mean our April... April.
- April: He would have torned me into pieces... if he hadn't slammed into the glass.
- [Raphael laughs and pauses again.]
- Raphael: Really, just me?
Panic in the Sewers (Mojo Rising)
- Raphael: I can't believe I'm gonna say this (Imitates character from Space Heroes) "Get yourself together captain, you're our leader, so act like one.
- Leonardo: (Calms down) You're right Raph, that was the anxiety ray talking.
- Raphael: What, that's it? You're not gonna slap yourself?
- [Leo shrugs.]
Mousers Attack!
- Leonardo: (To Donnie and Mikey) Look, guys, Raph and I may be better fighters, but you´re still an important part of this team.
- Donatello: (annoyed) As important as you two?
- [Leo and Raph look at each other.]
- Leonardo: Humm... Very important. We shouldn´t compare ourselves. I-It´s like apples and oranges.
- Raphael: (Muttering) Yes, if apples are way better, which they are.
- Donatello: So, the truth comes out.
- Michelangelo: You guys think of us as some kind of ... B Team!"
- Raphael: (To Mikey) Good one, Dr Namenstein. We´ll call you The B Team!
- Michelangelo: Thanks.... (realises) ...I mean, Hey!
- Fishface: If I weren't stuck in here, I would have caught Splinter by now!
- Dogpound: But you are stuck in there. [starts tapping the glass in Fishface's fish tank, creating vibrations that harm Fishface's hearing]
- Fishface: No-no-no-no! Stop that! Stop that! Ow! Ow! Stop it! Ow! Stop it!
- Dogpound: [laughs] I'm sure you'll have your chance to shine one of these days. Master Shredder might get hungry for sushi.
- Fishface: Why don't you get in the water and say that!
- Shredder: Enough, Xever! Bradford is right, you are useless to me this way! [to Dogpound] I'm counting on you, find me information I can use, or Xever won't be the only one missing his legs.
It Came From The Depths
- Guy on TV: It was like part-man, part-reptile, and all-monster! It came outta nowhere and attacked me!
- [Leo and Donnie stare at Raph.]
- Raphael: It wasn't me!
- Leonardo: We are NOT taking that monster home with us!
- Michelangelo: He's not a monster! He's a giant, Kraang crushing, mutant alligator monster! I just said "monster", didn't I?
- Raphael, Donatello and Leonardo: (While nodding) Yeah.
- Michelangelo: Well you know what I meant!
- Raphael: I thought you meant "monster".
- Splinter: Raphael, there is no monster more dangerous then a lack of compassion.
- [Sees Leatherhead.]
- Splinter: My mistake...
- Michelangelo: It's like you always say, Master Splinter; "the enemy of my enemy is my bro".
- Splinter: That is not exactly what I said...
- Donatello: Maybe you forgot that he grabbed me by the face, Mikey! So I'll remind you. He grabbed me BY THE FACE!
- Donatello: But we're still chaining him up, right?
- Splinter: Of course, I am compassionate, not insane.
- Raphael: Sometimes it's good to be a turtle....
- [Puts his head in shell when something comes flying at him. Leonardo and Donatello freak out until Raphael pops his head back out.]
- Raphael: ...And sometimes it's good to be a short turtle...
New Girl in Town
- Michelangelo: NO! Not the pizza guy! Take Donnie!
- Donatello: Snakeweed's getting away.
- Michelangelo: [smells pizza and gains consciousness] Mmm... Pepperoni.
- Leonardo: Works every time.
I, Monsters
- Michelangelo: I can think of a lot more better names than "The Rat King", Ratzilla, the Verminator, Lord Rattington.
- Leonardo: We get it, Mikey.
The Alien Agenda
- [Baxter Stockman is trying to build mechanical legs for Fishface]
- Dogpound: Ah, the mermaid's growing legs!
- Baxter Stockman: Quiet, please! Xever, get ready to walk!
- [Fishface tries to walk but ends up running amok around the lair while Dogpound cracks up laughing]
- Michelangelo: Alright, guys. What do you want? Omelet pizza, or Pizza omelet?
- Raphael: What's the difference?
- Michelangelo: Okay, you call my bluff!
- Leonardo: We're trapped!
- Karai: No, you're trapped. Let's see what happens when I press this.
- Leonardo: No!
- Donatello: Don't touch that!
- Kraang Droid: Highly undesirable outcome!
- Raphael: Nice try, Octo-Punk!
- Michelangelo: No, no! Call him Octo-Eyeball-jellybug! Ugh! Let's just call him Justin!
