In the lair, Splinter watches a movie that is being displayed by a movie projector. He's seated in his easy chair, smiling as he watches the movie "Teriyaki Shakedown". A scene develops as a car drives by an empty shop.

"Where's out free grub, noodle man?" A heavy, fine-dressed actor pretending to be a thug demands.

Raph steps before the giant screen, mimicking the lines of the noodle shop owner. "Okay, ha. How 'bout some...hot soup?"

Raph grips Donatello's chest and then Michelangelo's. The actors on screen yell as they get tossed and Raph tosses his brothers just like the noodle shop owner in the movie did. The turtles yelled as they fall face-first onto the hot noodle soup. A noodle lands on Splinter's face and he slurps it.

"Everyone's a critic. Hm." Splinter commented, pausing the movie. Mikey and Donnie lift their heads from the soup.

"Man, 'Teriyaki Shakedown' always gets me so..." Donnie inhales, "jazzed!"

"Yeah, Lou Jitsu's the business!" Raph agrees.

A remote goes flying through the air and hits Ralph in the face, knocking him down. Donnie and Mikey give Splinter a look for his confusing behavior.

"Then why do you insult the master with your poor technique?" Splinter demands, he then leaps off his chair, spins in the air, and smashes all his other sons into the ground.

He stood up as the turtles groaned. "Do not worry. Someday you will be great ninjas with a little practice...is something I would say if I were a liar."

"That's nice of you to say, Pop, but I'm tired of practicing." Mikey states.

Ralph stands up. "Yeah, we can be heroes like Lou Jitsu!" The snapper declared.

"Nice try," Splinter remarks. It wasn't that he doubted their skills, but if they were going to be heroes, they would need practice.

Lots of practice.

"We got the squillz, we got the tight color-coordinated team look," Mikey starts.

"Let's do it!" Raph bumps fists with his brother. "Let's go out and bust some bad guys."

Donnie stands up, rubbing his temple. "Yeah. I just feel like, you know, we need a case to get the juices flowing a little bit. You know, let's see what the internet has to say about it, shall we..." Donnie searches up recent cases on his tablet. Leo hops up from behind the easy chair and then flops over the back of it.

"Yo, Leo, we're gonna be heroes!" Mikey tells him.

Leonardo slithers down so his back is on the chair seat. "Okay, what's the plan? Solve the city's rat problem?"

He was then met with a face full of tail. The slider was knocked out of the chair.

"Hey now. I am standing right here." The rat points to the ground Leo sits up, rubbing his head.

"Pfft, no way. We're crime fighters!"

"Okay, check this out," Donnie shows the article he pulled from a website. "The Spine Breaking Bandit!"

Raph chuckles. "Yeah. Go big or go home!"

"Yeah," Leo slides in between Donnie and Mikey. "Go home on a stretcher. What else you got?"
