In the Oroku Saki's mansion courtyard, cloth-covered tables have been set out to accommodate a dinner party for dozens of guests.
Everyone is dressed in finery, as they represent the top echelon of society. A podium sits at the bottom of the staircase. At the table on that podium sits the mayor, with Oroku Saki to his right, and Ms. Aizawa with Karai to her left.
He stands and taps his silverware against the glass he has raised.
"Excuse me, may I have your attention, please? It is with a heavy heart that I stand here today, to say goodbye to one of the greatest men I've ever known. Oroku Saki, the man, and Helen Aizawa, the woman responsible for restoring the great city of New York to its full glory, is leaving us. I would like you to put your hands together and show these fine people how much we are truly going to miss them"The mayor said.
There is a loud round of applause. "Hear, hear!"A guest said. Saki stands and lifts a hand to quiet the guests. "You are too kind, thank you," Saki said and shook hands with the mayor.
"As my good friend the mayor has just reminded us, this is a farewell dinner. My way of saying thank you, and goodbye. Fortune has smiled on me in many ways. The opportunity to rectify certain matters at home has now presented itself and I must go. In my absence, my lovely daughter, Karai, will handle all my business affairs" He said and Karai stands.
"I assure you, she is more than capable. The city has been good to me. It is my adopted home. I hope someday to return. Please, enjoy your dinner, and let us make this a truly unforgettable evening" he said.
He pauses as applause rings out, and then speaks to the mayor. "My daughter and I must tend to the details of my departure. Please, keep the guests entertained" he said. The mayor nodded. He and Karai walk up the staircase.
Ms. Aizawa look and saw Alison who was in disguise. Her shadow whispered in her ear and she glared at her. "Excuse me, Mayor. I have some business to take care of"She said. The mayor nodded as she walks off.

I know it's here" she said. Casey arrives wearing a waiter's outfit and pushing a food cart laden with covered dishes. A long white cloth covers the cart almost down to its wheels.
The guard stops Casey as he's about to push the cart through the gateway. "I need to see some identification, "The guard said. "Come on, man, the vishi-sushi's are gonna get cold," Casey said. "I need to see some identification, now!"The guard yelled.
"Why you busting my balloons here, these dishes gotta get in there," Casey said. April backs up and then as Casey steps up next to the guard, she sneaks inside the compound. "Do me a favor, just check the cart and take it in yourself, will ya?"Casey said.
The guard lifts the cloth and leans down to look under the cart. Raphael and Michelangelo are seated on the lower shelf. "Hi there, nice party," Mikey said and delivers a kick to the man's face that knocks him out. The turtles grab the man and yank him under the cart with them.
"Oh yeah, like it wasn't crowded enough under here already, "He said. "Quiet" Raph said then we hear a sound of a slap. "Ow!"Mikey said. "You guys done or what?"Casey said. Raph sticks his hand out and offers Casey a thumbs up.
Casey nods and wheels the cart through the gateway. April waves at him from a side entrance as she holds the door open. Pan up to the building next door, where both Splinter and Leonardo are waiting on a window ledge.
