In the sewers Splinter speaks to four turtles and a human.
Splinter: You are extraordinary, my sons. Unlike anything the world has ever seen. Bound for greatness. Destined to protect the people of New York. A dark force is growing. A criminal organization known as the Foot Clan. So named because they step over the good people of this city with no regard. Their leader, The Shredder, will come at you with ferocity. His Foot Clan will outnumber you. The people of New York will look upon you as their only hope. Eyes focused. Elbows locked. Stance low. And we begin. Be one with the blades. Lead their path. I know you are eager to answer their calls, but your training is not yet complete. The world below must remain your home. As your father, you must trust me. Patience. You're not yet ready to go above ground. But I believe when that day comes and you rise to the streets, you are going to be responsible for amazing things.
At the docks April O' Neil tries to interview a worker.
April: Mr. Rivetti!
Rivetti: I just...
April: Mr. Rivetti. Mr. Rivetti, please.
Rivetti: You're the most persistent human I've ever met in my life, I swear. Look, I already told the police everything, all right?
April: But maybe there's a detail you could've forgotten to share with the police.
Rivetti: Sweetheart, you don't forget something like that. Ten guys storm in here, broad daylight, force us to the ground at gunpoint. And these are restricted chemicals. Benzyl cyanide and some deaminating agents, too. You don't just buy this stuff, even on the black market.
April: Wait, you said deaminating agents, those are used in genetic research. Is there anybody else that's trafficking these sort of chemicals besides you?
Vernon is by the side waiting for April.
Rivetti: There's one other high-security facility along this waterfront. But they don't move nearly as much cargo as we do.
Vernon: O'Neil! We're live in 30 minutes! Come on!
Rivetti: Okay?
April: Uh... No, no, no, I'll be right back. Please don't go anywhere. I'll be right back.
She runs over to Vernon.
April: Come on, you're killing me. I'm working.
Vernon: That's a paying job?
April: No.
Vernon: Because we have an actual paying job. Look, you don't think that every crime reporter in the city isn't trying to work this Foot Clan story?
April: I know that, but there is a new angle on this, and I am this close to getting it. I just need a couple of more...
Vernon: Let's just stick to what we're good at. Let's stick to what we're good at. We're good at it.
Vernon and April drive off and go into the city and Vernon aims at his camera.
Vernon: In five, four...
April: Hi, guys, this is April O'Neil from Channel 6 News, and I am here in beautiful New York City on the first day of spring. And you know what that means. It is time to shed that pesky winter weight. And here with me today is celebrity fitness trainer Harley Pasternak. Hi, Harley.
Harley: Good morning, April. Twenty years I've studied the animal kingdom. There are fat pigs, there are fat cows. There are no fat birds. All right, I want you to visualize a sexy seagull.
April was on a trampoline and began to get exercise.
Harley: So, we're going to squat down and flap your wings. Right over there. Full extension. Picture you're leaving the cold north and you're flying. You're migrating.
