Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

[ Dregg ]
Now that I possess your mental
and physical strength,

I am the most powerful being
in the universe.

[ Typing ]

It's time to transport
a piece of the sun...

into the center of the city.

Something's wrong,
my lord.

The transporter
isn't responding.

[ Beeping ]

[ Mung ]
Shredder has taken
the subspace amplification chip.

We can't transport
the sunspots without it.

I've got to find some way
to help the Turtles.

In time,
you shall find
your answers, my son.

Time?
Yeah, that's it!
Time!

They should be arriving
any second.

Landor!
Merrick!

We used our time device
to bring us here as soon
as we got your message...

that the Turtles
were in trouble.

You've gotta go back in time
and bring the Turtles of the
past back to the present. Hurry!

Stand back!

What happened?

Your future selves
are trapped
in an alien ship.

Unless you help us give them
a life-energy transfusion,
they won't make it.

And neither will you.

You won't escape
this time, reptiles.

Do we know
that dude?

Yo! Those guys
sure look like us.
They are us.

We're home, safe!

Oh, no,
we're not!

We better scram before there's
Ninja Turtle-flavored gum...

stuck to the bottom
of that thing's foot.

We've got
to get ourselves--

I mean, these guys
back to the lab, fast!

Why do I get the feeling
that's not quite as easy
as it sounds?

Run for it!

April, warn the authorities
that Dregg is up to something.

We'll get the Turtles
back to the lair.

Will do!

Those wretched reptiles...

will not prevent me
from conquering
this puny planet.

Ow! Ah!
[ Groans ]

How long before the rest
of the attack fleet
will be ready?

About--
[ Gags ]


[ Choking ]
my lord.

[ Grunts ]
[ Groans ]

In 15 hours,
I will be lord of Earth.

And my first official act...

will be to destroy
those reptilian rogues.

What do we do now?

Well, we can give them
a life-energy transfusion...

by hooking you all up
to your de-mutation ray.

Huh?
What de-mutation ray?

I don't have
a de-mutation ray.

Uh-- He means
my de-mutation ray.

You haven't invented it yet.

Oh!
That de-mutation ray!

All set,
Carter.

[ Whirring ]

How long will this take?
About 15 hours.

Dregg will rue the day
he tried to terminate us.

This program chip I took
from his vortex transporter...

is all we need
to get rid of him
for good.

There's no time
to lose, Krang.

We must get back
to the nuclear power plant.

They'll be gone
in a minute.

I just thought
of the way
to stop Dregg...

and take over
his ship and crew.

But we'll need
one of his Bat-men
to do it.

Looking for me?

Dregg's Bat-men
have limited brain power.

Hypnotizing them
should be easy.

You cannot resist
my brain power.

Your mind is mine to control.

You will do exactly
as I say.

My hypnotic control
will only last
for 30 minutes.

We've got to work fast.

The transfusion's complete.

How do you feel, guys?
Fine, dude.

I think
he means us, dude.

Hey, it worked, Carter!
We've got our energy back.

Uh, thanks
for saving us, guys.

Hey, you would have done
the same thing for us.

Well, sure.
I mean, we are you.

Yeah.
Kind of spooky,
isn't it?

[ Together ]
So, you're me, huh?

Sorry. After you.

No, no. You talk first.

I am!
[ Groans ]
This isn't working.

Witnessing my past
and present students...

gives me great hope
for the future.

[ All ]
Thank you, Sensei.

Uh, it's nothing personal,
guys, but, um,

we've really gotta get back
to the Technodrome
and stop Shredder and Krang.

You're right, Leonardo.
You guys have accomplished
what we brought you here for.

I'll just bounce
another message
off a distant star,

and it'll come back to Earth


Landor and Merrick
should be here any second.
[ Beeping ]

I--
I don't understand it.

Well, try again, dude.
Maybe they don't have
call-waiting.

[ Beeping ]

What?
It's not working!

Hello! Does the phrase
"time warp paradox"
ring a bell?

Hey, Raphael's right.

We've got three hours left
before our presence
in this time continuum...

causes us all
to cease to exist.

[ Beeps ]

The remainder of your
attack fleet is ready,
Lord Dregg.

Once the Earth is mine...

and I've gotten the chip
back from Shredder,

I can transport
pieces of the sun...

to the capital cities
on planets
throughout the galaxy.

The universe
will soon be mine.

Mung, put the Dreggnaught
on autopilot.

We'll beam down
with the rest
of the Bat-men.

Yes, my lord.

Well, begin transporting!

Oh-- Yes, my lord.

Sergeant, that alien leader,
Dregg, is going to send a--

You'll have to wait in line.

But this can't wait!
The city's in--

The city will run
a lot smoother
if you'll just get in line.

[ Rumbling ]
What's going on?

Oh, no!
It's already started!

[ Sighs ]
Landor and Merrick
aren't responding.

Well, uh--

Is there some other way
to contact them?
I'm afraid not.

Bummer.
I wonder what it feels like
to be sucked into a time warp...

and cosmically annihilated?

Yeah, I was wondering
the same thing.
[ Rumbling ]

Is that an earthquake?

No. It's coming
from topside.

Let's check it out.

[ All ]
Whoa!

Those things are humongous!

The bigger they are,
the harder they fall.

I hope you're right, dude.

Here we go!

Bogus idea, dude!

Don't blame me.
It was your idea, dude!

[ Grunts, Screams ]
[ Groans ]

Help!

[ Buzzing ]
Got him!

He's got Leonardo.
Come on!

[ Buzzing ]
[ Screaming ]

Don't look now,

but we're about to become
a short stack
of turtle pancakes.

Let's get outta here.

[ Grunts ]
Thanks, Carter.

[ Moans ]

Are you all right?
Yeah.

[ April ]
Guys, are you there?

Oh, Michelangelo,
am I glad
I could reach you!

[ Together ]
We're kinda busy
right now, April.

Excuse me, dude,
but I believe
she was talking to me.

No way, José. You've
got your own April
in the past.

I'm talking to anyone
who wants to listen.

You're not the only ones
fighting those things.

They're all over the world!

Well, we can't
fight them one-on-one.
They're too powerful.

Yeah.
And there's
too many of them.

We've got to get to Dregg
and stop the invasion
from its source.

We can't just
leave these two
to destroy the city.

You guys come with me
to the power plant.

The rest of you guys
stay here and try
to stop those invaders.

Leonardo. Donatello.

They went off to battle
Dregg's invasion force.

I hope we're not
too late to help.

We tried to arrive
exactly when they called.

But a disturbance in the fabric
of time-space caused us
to miss our destination.

Where will we find them?

Perhaps their friend April
can help you.

[ Krang ]
With this bat-creature
under my hypnotic command,

sneaking into the power plant
will be easy.

Well, it better be.

I still don't like
the idea of him
holding a weapon on us.

Not to worry, Shredder.

He'll do exactly
as I told him.

The invasion is going
exactly as planned,
Lord Dregg.

Well, I knew it wouldn't
be long before you two
were captured.

- Give me the chip.
- Very well.

Transport these two
back to the Dreggnaught.

So far so good.

That chip I gave to Dregg
was bogus. By the time
he figures it out,

I will have
transported him
into a wormhole...

where he'll be
trapped forever.

Then we'll take over
his invasion fleet
and conquer the Earth.

Plug this chip into
the targeting computer, Mung.

Then we'll begin transporting
flaming pieces of the sun...

to planets
all over the galaxy.

Krang and Shredder
are double-crossing you.

That's not the real chip!

You cannot deceive
my mind, Krang,

now that your thought patterns
are mine.

And now that I have
the real chip,

I can finally
dispose of you
for good.

Give it your
best shot, Dregg.

Go, Green Machine!

[ Shouts ]
The chip!

[ Shouts, Growls ]

If either
Dregg or Shredder
get that chip,

Earth is gonna be
a baked apple.

This bulldozer
ought to take care of
that mondo monster.

[ Whimpers ]
I think we better pretend to be
teenage mutant ninja frogs...

and jump!

[ Leonardo ]
Hey, where's Michelangelo?

Oh, no, don't tell me
it squashed him.

[ Groans ]
That was heavy, dudes.
Really heavy.

We've got less than two hours
before the time paradox
erases us.

Yeah, and about two seconds
before the next
attack monster...

turns us into
the Cream Machine.

[ Leonardo ]
We're pinned down.

I've got to get
to the targeting computer...

before Dregg gets that chip.

There's the chip!

And I've got it.

Stop!
Or Krang is finished.

Uh, guys,
I think
he's got me.

Mung, put this chip
into the transporter
targeting computer.

My invasion
is no longer necessary,

now that I can transport
pieces of the sun to all of
Earth's major cities.

[ Carter ]
No!

Another of your cities
has just been annihilated.

Have you gone wacko, Dregg?

You're mad!

You may call me mad,

but in a few minutes
you'll be calling me
Emperor of the World!

[ Cackles ]

It's a good thing
we got these
buildings evacuated.

If we can get
to the top floor in time,
we may have a chance.

[ Grunts ]
Yeah. To see the sights
one last time!

[ Elevator Bell Dings ]

Okay, guys,
just do what I told you.

Everyone, down!

Michelangelo, go!

[ Donatello ]
I'm not sure I know
how to operate this thing.

No sweat, dude.

It's just like my rock-'em,
sock-'em ninja video game.

Come on.
We've gotta get back
to the nuclear power plant.

Mung, get me
the League of Nations.

[ Mung ]
Oh! Yes, my lord.

This is a confidential
satellite channel.

What is the meaning
of this interruption?

Well, you see,
I've already destroyed
a dozen major cities.

I demand the unconditional
surrender of all nations,

or I shall turn the Earth
into a boiling sun.

The League of Nations
does not respond to threats.

Especially false ones.

False threats!

Is he out of his mind?

Losing your evil touch,
huh, Dregg?

It's true, my lord.

Scanners indicate
that all of the planet's
capitals are...

intact.

But-But--
But how?

Oh, it was simple, really.

I just bypassed your
subspace targeting chip...

and programmed your computer
to run your
virtual reality tests.

You've been watching
reruns, dude.

And you are going to watch me...

put an end
to your Earthly existence.

All right, guys.
Let's drop that rat!

Quickly, dismantle
that... thing.

[ Clinking ]

This thing is coming apart.

They just don't make
alien invasion craft
like they used to.

[ Clanging, Crashing ]

[ Screaming ]

What on earth?
[ Groans ]

My brain energy
must be malfunctioning.

No, your brain
is working perfectly.

The Turtles have brought
their duplicates...

from the past
to destroy you.

And destroy you they will!
No!

Turtles to the second power!

If we survive this,
I'll deal with you, Dregg.

[ Together ]
Hey, have you seen
my yo-yo move, dude?

[ Together ]
Guess I already
taught it to you, huh?

Quick.
We've gotta reprogram
the targeting computer...

and transport
the attack monsters
to a distant asteroid.

[ Together ]
Fire!

[ Together ]
Whoa!

Mung, lock on to the sunspots
and transport them to Earth.

Ready, my lord.

No!

Mung, transport... now!

[ Grunts ]
Let me... go!

- [ Beeps ]
- Transporter activated!

[ Groans ]
It's too late.

The Earth is doomed.

Well, guess again, Dregg.

I retargeted the transporter.

Your starship is stardust.

[ Grunts ]
What's happening?

What is happening?

When the transporter platform
in Dregg's ship exploded,

it must have overloaded
this platform.

Oh, this whole place
is gonna blow any second.

Then we've gotta get rid
of these bad guys-- and fast.

Excuse me.
I believe you stole
some Turtle power from us.

Stop!

Get them on the platform!
Hurry!

- [ Beeps ]
- Transporter activated.

[ Dregg ]
I won't go back!

Hurry!
It's gonna blow!

We saved you, dudes.

No way, dude.
We saved you.

Hold it.
Let's compromise.
We saved ourselves.

Okay.
Hard to argue with that.

Uh, guys.
I don't think
we saved anyone.

- [ Beeping ]
- We've only got 10 seconds
before we all vanish...

into the time warp paradox.

It's, uh--
It's been nice
knowing you guys.

There isn't a second
to spare.

Did they...
make it in time?

They're back
where they belong,

safely fighting
Shredder and Krang
in the past.

Great!
I guess.

Yeah, but we never
got a chance to say good-bye.

Well, that's okay.
We know what
they would have said.

Huh.
Yeah, that's true.
They're us.

So we could just
say good-bye to ourselves.

¡Hasta la vista, Michelangelo!

Later, dude.
It was cool meeting you.

I think he's missing
a few beans
in the old burrito.

Now that Dregg is gone, I--
Well, I guess this is
as good a time as any...

for me to go back to school
and see if I can find a cure
for my mutation.

Come with us
to the future, Carter.

We have scientists there
who can cure you.

The future? Huh.
[ Chuckles ]

I never really thought about it,
but it sounds pretty cool.

[ Sighs ]
Maybe it's a good idea.

We don't seem to be able
to cure you here.

Yeah. Go for it,
Carter.

Yeah, dude.
But, uh, do us one favor.

Please, don't bring any
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
back from the future.

Four is plenty.

[ Chuckles ]
Right.

Well, see ya
in the future, guys.
