the daytime. April, Casey and Irma are walking down the street.

Irma: I know they claimed that pizza was gluten free, but I definitely tasted gluten.

Casey: Thanks for hanging out with us on our date, Irma. We really needed a chaperone.

Irma: Anything I can do to help.

April: Um, who said this was a date, Casey?

A mouse runs past.

Casey: Yah! What the...

Irma: I can't believe someone as big as you is afraid of a little rat.

A cat screeches at the rat.

April: And I can't believe that rat was afraid of this adorable little kitty. 

She picks up the cat.

April: Aw.

Irma: I mean, rats are relatively harmless. They also share many similarities to humans, which is why they're used in scientific experiments.

Casey: Does she ever shut up?

April looks at the cat.

April: Little kitty doesn't have any tags. We can't just leave her here.

Irma: Don't look at me. I'm more of a rat person.

Something clattered as April and Casey leave.

April: Catch you later, Irma. Got to find this kitty a home.

Irma: Sure. Ditch me again. One of these days, I'm gonna find out. Where you two are always running off to, and then I'll-

Something sneaks behind her and roars; Irma turns around and screams.

Leo: I don't know, Master Splinter. This doesn't seem fair.

Splinter has a blindfold on.

Splinter: I assure you, it isn't.

Leo draws katana, and attacks, Splinter dodges, Leo misses, Raph, Donnie and Mikey laugh.

Mikey: Oh, man.

Raph: A swing and a miss.

Splinter: Blind fighting is more than honing your other senses. It is about perception and giving the illusion of control.

Leo attacks but misses again.

Splinter: You may think you have the upper hand. In the situation, but.. You do not.

Leo charges but Splinter dodged his attack and knocked Leo down. Y/N, Donnie, Raph and Mikey began to laugh.

Mikey: Looks like someone needs a shower.

Raph: How's that floor tasting, Lame-enardo?

Splinter slaps the four heads.

All: Ow!

The rat mutant hits them on the back of their heads with the sword.

Splinter: It is not hard to sense loudmouths.

Suddenly, Splinter groans, taking off his blindfold and his eyes turn red.

Splinter: You turtles and Ronin! You will all-

Splinter hesitates.

Y/N: Master Splinter, are you all right?

Splinter: I am sorry, my sons. This is... Something is wrong. I must meditate. We will continue this training another time.
