The episode begins at the Foot Shack where an initiation is beginning. The Foot Initiates bow down to the Foot Brute and Foot Lieutenant.

Foot Brute: Since all of you have fulfill your worthiness and dedication to the Foot Clan...

Foot Lieutenant: We bestow upon you the most sacred and most treasured...

Foot Hound: The mark of the Foot Clan. Now let this paint creature kick you in the face to receive your marks.

The paint creature kicks Jocelyn across the room. Now her face has an orange foot mark.

Jocelyn: Yes...

Yungoos: You look so awesome with the mark on your face!

Jocelyn: Thanks, Yungoos! (chuckles)

The other initiates also have orange foot marks on their faces.

Baron Draxum: Pure insanity...

Darkrai: Agree.

Brianna: Tell me about it! This is a bit insane. Couldn't they just paint the Foot symbol on their faces instead of kicking them in the face?

Foot Hound: Then it wouldn't be any fun to it. (sees Foot Recruit and Bulldog being angry) Hm? Is something wrong, Recruit?

Foot Recruit: Yes there is, Kamala! I can't believe Jocelyn gets promoted instead of me! I know her parents are big donors but c'mon!

Granbull: It's ridiculous and totally unfair!

Naquicha: Chill, Recruit. You'll get your mark soon.

Foot Recruit: Easy for you to say, Naq!

Baron Draxum: Why are we here to watch a stupid ceremony? You promise to give me the dark armor!

Houndoom: And we intend to give you the armor once it's completed!

Houndour: AND once you become a FULL member of the Foot Clan...

Foot Lieutenant: Correct. The legend states that only those who have proven their worthiness to the Foot Clan are allowed to wear the armor.

Kamala: We can't just give it to you all willy-nilly like that. You have to earn it.

Baron Draxum: Then make me into a full member of the Foot Clan now! So that I can restore the Yokai's dominance over humans!

Huginn: Sorry boss, but there's a rising-to-the-rank system and you're at... uh... Rank 0.

Muninn: That's the worst!

Darkrai: The worst?

Baron Draxum: Why are my gargoyles telling me my rank?

Huginn: We've been promoted from toenail to tender foot. We're rank 2.

Muninn: Show me what I look like with the mask on! (Huginn kicks him and shows him in a mirror) Cool, I look sick!

Baron Draxum: My gargoyles outrank me? Unacceptable. (smashes ground)

Foot Lieutenant: I know you think the irrational outbursts will get you on our good side. But there is still a process.

Baron Draxum: Fine... How do I get to rank 2?

Kamala: I'll show you. I'll be your guide from now on. To see what you do during the process.

Baron Draxum: Brianna, you stay here. I'll be back.

Brianna: Understood, Draxum!

[Coffee Shop]

Baron Draxum: What is this place? Are we here to lay waste on these worthless humans?

Foot Recruit: No, this is a coffee shop. We're tasked on getting coffee for the entire Foot Clan. And a vegan coconut stone for my boss.

Granbull: You never been to a coffee shop before?!

Darkrai: No we haven't been here. This is a first for us.

Granbull: That explains it!

Kamala (wearing a baggy hat to cover her ears and a red mini dress): Interesting... These humans don't seem to mind us. As if we're one of them. (thinking) I guess Kaminari was right about this. Why is she always good at making predictions?! That's frustrating!

Baron Draxum: Draxum's not some errand boy.

Foot Recruit: (kicks tray) To become a full member of the Foot Clan, one must show commitment and patience.

Kamala: That's right, Recruit. A true Foot member must show that they are dedicated to complete any task at hand. As well as showing you have the patience to wait for a long period of time.

Foot Recruit: I have been training since I was 7!

Granbull: Yeah! So we know how to be patient!

Baron Draxum: Madness! Baron Draxum takes what he needs now! (throws seed at the sign)

The seed drops into the coffee and transforms into a monster. This causes everyone except the three to flee out of fear. The baristas ran away out of fear.

Foot Recruit: (carrying coffee and gasps) I have been doing this wrong the whole time!

Kamala: Draxum~!

Baron Draxum: What is it, Hound? I did what they task me. I got the coffee. (sips coffee)

Kamala: This is so wrong! Yes you have shown commitment but the way you did it was unacceptable! You were supposed to show your patience! But instead, you have shown me that you have absolutely no patience and wants to get things done as quickly as possible! (summons mini notebook and pencil) You get one point for commitment but no points for patience.

Baron Draxum: You're writing all of this down because...?

Kamala: As an observer, I have to make sure you did things right. Everything is one point and it gets subtracted every time you did something wrong.

Baron Draxum: This is gonna get annoying.

Meanwhile, Armand, who was watching behind the wall, was spying on them.

Armando: That must be Baron Draxum. This is bad. I have to contact HQ about this.

[Foot Shack]

Brianna: Thanks for the latte! (sips latte) So good!

Baron Draxum: I have completed your meaningless task.

Kamala: In the wrong way! That was supposed to show your commitment and patience!

Foot Lieutenant: Settle down, Foot Hound.

Baron Draxum: Now when do I get the dark armor?

Darkai: We would like to know.

Houndour: Oh, we're glad you asked.

Foot Lieutenant: We got a retrieval mission tonight and, thanks to your excellent performance, rather then these stones which are a bit stale.

Foot Brute: We're bringing you to Strike Squad's Special Force Delta.

Foot Recruit: (gasps happily) I was born to be with the Strike Squad's Special Force Delta! (grabs bat) I shall beat my foes in pain! (swings bat)

Granbull: Yeah! Let's do this! Whoo!

Foot Lieutenant: Okay, okay. Love the enthusiasm. But actually your assignment is...

[Garden House]

Granbull: I can't believe we have been put into Lookout Support Duty!

Foot Recruit: We're looking out for the LOOKOUTS?!

Kamala: Correct. Your assignment is to lookout for any enemies that may appear.

Baron Draxum: This is ridiculous!

Kamala: Ridiculous?

Foot Recruit: You know, I was accepted to every clan I have lied to.

Baron Draxum: With my powers, I should be in charge of this clan! Surely there must be some way to take control of them.

Kamala: Nice try, Draxum. But that won't be possible.

Darkrai: And why not?

Granbull: According to the Laws of the Foot Clan, one can only take control of the Foot Clan is to succeed what the leaders have failed.

Foot Recruit: My senseis have never failed once!

Baron Draxum: We'll see about that...

[Foot Clan]

Foot Lieutenant: Our research shows that the armor piece is located inside one of these statues.

Foot Brute: It looks like Draxum is gonna get his wish soon. If he can prove his worth. (looks at Lieutenant and starts laughing with him)

Houndour: Like that would happen!

Foot Lieutenant takes out a shuriken which starts to scan a statue. It reveals there is no armor piece inside. As Baron Draxum look from afar, he turns to see a light coming from inside the greenhouse.

Baron Draxum: (looks through binoculars) What's going on there? (spots the Turtles, Arabella, Ryuko, Flora and Blaze)

Foot Recruit: Hai. I will alert the others. (turns) Caw! Caw! (gets wrapped in vines)

Baron Draxum: Quiet you! We shall handle this ourselves.

Kamala: Hm? Let me see. (grabs binoculars and looks through them) Aren't those your creations? The ones who keep defeating you time and time again? The Turtles?

Baron Draxum: Yes... Don't bring that up. We shall investigate as to why are they here for.

Kamala: You sure you don't want the others to know?

Baron Draxum: They'll know eventually. Trust me.

Kamala: Alright... Let's go...

[The Turtles]

The Turtles (Harmonic Forms), Arabella, Ryuko and Blaze are chanting "smell it" to Raph.

Baron Draxum: What are they doing?

Foot Recruit: This is no doubt a cunning trap to distract us so they can get the dark armor.

Donnie (Fused with Rena): What do you say, Raph? Do you have the guts to sniff the stinkiest plant on Earth: The Corpse Flower?!

Ryuko: You sure you can take it, Mikester?

Mikey: Of course I can! I'm not even gonna barf!

Arabella: Not gonna barf? That's impossible! If you can do it without barfing, I'll give you $20!

Mikey: Deal! Watch and learn!

Blaze: (recording on his phone) This is gonna be good.

Flora: I don't know if you should do this. What if someone caught us?

Blaze: Not to worry. Nobody's gonna find out.

Flora: I hope you're right...

Foot Recruit: This must be a trap. But if there is one thing I've learned from you is we get nothing for waiting. (rushes in along with Bulldog) Foot Clan~!

Kamala: Recruit, wait! (runs after her)

Foot Recruit: Vermin, prepare to (takes out sword) face my wrath!

But instead, she slashes the Corpse Flower and her and Bulldog get covered in slime.

Foot Recruit: (coughing) This... was... a trap...

Granbull: A big trap... (coughing)

Ryuko: That was sweet!

Mikey: She went all in the stink! Nice job, frenemy!

Flora: Oh my, are you alright?

Foot Recruit screams in anger and chases after Raph. While they were distracted, Draxum and Darkrai quietly leaves without them noticing.

Kamala: (laughing) You look funny with goop all over you! (Raph grabs Kamala as he continues running in circles) Hey! Don't make me a part of this chase! (hitting him on the head) Put me down, turtle! Put me down!

Foot Recruit: Bulldog, use Rock Tomb to slow him down!

Granbull: Rock~!

Kamala: Hold on! You're not gonna attack me as well right?!

Granbull: Tomb~!

Leo: Raph, you have to use Iron Tail or something to break those rocks!

Raph: How?! I have a dog person on top of my head and I'm too sick to break anything!

But suddenly, vines comes out of nowhere and catches Rock Tomb.

Peng: That would be far enough. (comes out of the shadows along with Garifullina and Marina)

Leo: Whoa... That was awesome...

Ryuko: Eh?

[Baron Draxum]

Baron Draxum: So, our senseis never failed eh? We'll see about that. (pulls alarm)

The alarm causes the security guards to wake up from their sleep.

Security Lead: Listen up, Both Cannibal Insecurity Force Alpha! Move, move, move! (after they assemble up) There's a protocol emergency!

Houndour: An alarm?!

Houndoom: At the botanical gardens? That's new.

Foot Lieutenant: I'm sure our ninjas can handle a few groundskeepers.

The groundskeepers starts using their battle cry as they appear.

Foot Lieutenant: Get them~!

But the Foot Ninjas were defeated by the groundskeepers.

Foot Recruit: I will grind you up into fertilizer!

Security Lead: The Corpse Flower...

Foot Recruit is still chasing after Raph and Kamala.

Security Lead: Protect the begonias! I'll be right back to check on Jewel! (running to the greenhouse)

[Meanwhile]

Leo: Raph, use your tails! Any one will do!

Raph: Oh right! (uses tail to block Foot Recruit's sword) Like this?

Leo: Exactly like that!

Granbull: We will never let you stop us from collecting the dark armor!

Leo: Hold on, stinky feet. Is that the reason why you're here?

Foot Recruit: Yes! You won't stop us from collecting the pieces of the dark armor! Never!

Marina: Not until we get it first! As member of the Crimson Butterfly Syndicate, we are tasked with destroying anything that associates with Baron Draxum. That includes the dark armor pieces.

Leo: Crimson Butterfly Syndicate? What's that?

Marina: It's an independent organization with a mission of destroying everything that associates with Baron Draxum. Our leader is Kios, who is a Crimson Butterfly Yokai and former member of Kaminari's resistance army.

Kamala: I see... That makes sense since you have the symbol for it.

Marina: Correct! (chuckles haughty) You have such a good idea, doggy.

Kamala: My name is Kamala not doggy! Show some respect! (growls)

Marina: This is the reason why I hate dogs so much. They think they're the better pet than anybody else. How sad.

Kamala: Are you implying that foxes are better than dogs?!

Marina: And what if I am, short pancake?!

Kamala: Short pancake?! How dare you disrespect a Yokai!

They growl aggressively at each other.

Leo: Now now, let's not fight in here. Foxes and dogs are both awesome. No need to fight over which one is better than the other.

Together: Shut up, you stupid cat!

Leo: I'm technically a turtle so~...

Suddenly, a Foot Ninja knocks Foot Recruit to the ground.

Mikey: Where did that come from?!

Garifullina points to a broken window and outside.

Raph: Shouldn't we head to the real battle?

Leo: That's quite fur-tunate. Let's go, gang! And remember, we can't transform back until the sun rise for the next morning.

Mikey: I'm so gonna get that free meal!

Donnie: Me too! Hope you better get ready for your wallets 'cause I'm gonna get that free meal of whatever I want!

Leo: Mew? (chuckles) That's a laugh.

Donnie: Shut up with the cat puns!

Leo: No can do, bro. I must continue.

They leave and head to where the Foot Ninjas are.

Security Lead: Jewal... No~!

They passed by Huginn and Muninn who are chilling in a fountain.

Huginn: Was that the Turtles? Should we alert the Foot?

Muninn: Why? I mean, they're gonna find out anyway.

Huginn: I love the way you think. We'll be in rank 3 in no time.

As our heroes jumped to the battle, a vine catches Foot Recruit, Bulldog and Kamala.

Darkrai: Not to worry. Our ranks will skyrocketed.

Kamala: Huh? What did you do?!

Baron Draxum: Nothing in particular.

Raph: Take this! Have some Thunderbolt!

Donnie: Leaf Storm!

Garifullina: (freezes Leaf Storm as Leo runs on it)

Leo: Odachi~! (slams into Foot Brute) Ready to lose, big guy?! Shadow Ball!

Foot Brute: (grunts) That hurts! (to Foot Lieutenant) I know you get nervous when I rush you but hurry!

Foot Lieutenant: (scans statue) Got it! It's in there! Houndour, use Flamethrower to melt that statue!

Houndour: On it! Flame~...

Leo: Not gonna happen! Psy~! (levitates and throws Houndour to a bush) Sorry but I can't let you burn that statue...

Foot Lieutenant: Why you little...! (gets grabbed and pulled by Mikey's whip sword)

Kamala: Baron Draxum, how dare you! You have shown no honor to the Foot Clan! That's such a cowardly move!

Baron Draxum: Cowardly?

Kamala: That's right! You're a coward who wants to do things his way!

They then hear the security lead running out of the greenhouse holding a part of the Corpse Flower. An Oozesquito landed on his hand and injects him with ooze. Causing him to transform into a flower mutant.

Leo: Wha~?

Raph: Uh-oh.

Marina: This can't be good.

Security Lead: Jumping juniper! I'm in full bloom! (sends out vines to attack them)

Ryuko: Oh this is just great! (slashes vine) We have to deal with (slashes vine) a flower mutant?!

Blaze: Not the way I imagine would happen.

Mikey: Smelly plant? Cool. Smelly plant with legs? Not as cool!

Security Lead: Get off of the terrariums! Let me people breathe! (spits out goo)

Mikey produces flames from the whip sword and uses it to block the goo.

Raph: (steps out flame) Micheal! What did we say about mystic flame on highly vegetative areas?

Mikey: Oh right. (stops) Sorry.

Mikey, Leo and Raph gets covered in goo.

Arabella: That's gonna stink a lot.

Marina: You alright?

Leo: No! Absolutely not! This is so gross!

Raph: Not again! Not again! Totally not again!

Leo: I need a long hot shower to get this goop out!

Mikey: Ugh! Stinkbomb's gotta be my favorite and least favorite mutant at the same time!

Arabella: (goes behind the bushes) That's one crazy mutant plant.

Donnie: (gagging) Note to future self. Equip tech-bo with nose plugs.

Stinkbomb covers everyone in goo which causes them to be defeated by the smell alone.

Baron Draxum: Perfect... Would you do the honors?

Foot Recruit: Me?

Darkrai: Correct.

Foot Recruit: Kali Ma!

[Foot Shack]

At the underground cave, the Foot ninjas bows down to Baron Draxum while Foot Brute and Foot Lieutenant are trapped in vines.

Foot Lieutenant: So uh Draxum. I have some good news about your potential in this clan.

Foot Brute: Yes, really good news.

Baron Draxum: Silence! I have accomplished with one assistant in what you couldn't do with your entire clan!

Foot Recruit: Assistant? I thought we were... partners?

Baron Draxum: (silences Recruit) As the Laws of the Foot Clan states, I'm in charge of the Foot Clan! (they begin to cheer) We will begin on Monday!

Huginn: Monday's a holiday so could we do it on Tuesday?

Muninn: No can do. Baron's got a haircut on Tuesday. You know they never get around the first bang so...

Baron Draxum: We will do it on the following Monday and nothing more!

Kamala: This can't be happening... He has purposely jeopardize the mission so he could lead the Foot Clan! I can't let him do this! I have no choice but to get some help from an unlikely source. (wipes off Foot mark) I must ask for the Turtles' help. (leaves)
