SPLINTER:
Students,

here we are
at the Louvre in Paris.

A museum that houses

perhaps the world's greatest
artistic achievement:

The Mona Lisa.

Created by Leonardo's namesake,
Leonardo da Vinci.

I don't know much about art,
but I like it.

I hate all masterpieces,

especially this one.

I will destroy it
for all time.

He's gonna deface
the Mona Lisa.

That's what he thinks.

[♪♪♪]

Wha--? Where did you come from?

That's not the point.

This is the point:

[GRUMBLING]

Hey, dude,
latch on to this.

You will leave him
to the gendarmes.

They are on their way.

[♪♪♪]

[POLICE SIRENS WAILING]

We cannot relax
our vigilance,

even on foreign soil.

There is evil everywhere.

SHREDDER:
Krang, when will that

hypercombustion
oxidizer rocket be ready?

Just a few more
adjustments, Shredder.

Have patience.

Patience is for wimps.

I can't wait to blast
this Technodrome to Paris,

the city of lights.

There's also this extra
added incentive:

"Hi, April.
Paris is great,

"and the French pizza
isn't half bad either.

Au reservoir,
the Turtles."

The Turtles, in Paris?

Très bon.

Those miserable shellbacks
might not be so formidable

out of their element.

You're right, Krang.

What better place
to enjoy turtle soup

than in Paris.

Follow me,
my students.

Are you sure this is
the right way, Master Splinter?

Here it is.

We are directly beneath
the gardens of Versailles.

[SNIFFS]
Do they not smell beautiful?

No sweat, amigos.

My guide book has
the complete skinny on Paris.

Here it is, dudes,
the garden of Versailles.

DONATELLO:
Hm, too bad it isn't
scratch-and-sniff.

Well, what's the delay
this time?

I told you before, Shredder.

A hypercombustion rocket
is a delicate instrument.

Delicate shmelicate.

I'm programming
for maximum thrust.

[COMPUTER BEEPING]

Shredder, you idiot.

That's not "thrust,"
it's "rust."

Now look what you've done,
you walking sardine can.

Thanks to your impatience,

we'll never get
this scrapheap to Earth.

Not necessarily, Krang.

With this new rust encruster,

we'll be able to bring
all of Paris

to a grinding halt.

Hm, you're right.

And in the confusion,
we'll tap into enough energy

to draw the Technodrome
down to Earth.

Then the other world leaders
will be putty in our hands.

[DOOR SLIDES OPEN]

BEBOP:
Rang, Krang?

I always wanted
to say that.

You two will accompany
Shredder to Paris,

and you'll take
the rust encruster with you.

Oh, boy. Paris.

Isn't that where all that
plaster comes from?

No, you fool.

It's where French fries
come from.

Now, get in that portal.

Flowers. Who will buy
my pretty flowers?

[GASPS]

Hey, what's with
all the flowers?

Oh, we must've died
and went to heaven.

Sacré bleu.

My flower cart,
she is ruined.

I call the gendarmes.

You can call the French
foreign legion for all I care.

Krang, you brainiac.

You portaled us down here

with the rust encruster
on empty.

Well, I can't do everything.

You'll just have to find
your own new power source.

I bid you adieu.

[♪♪♪]

You heard me.
We're taking over your garret.

Please, monsieur,
I am a poor artist.

You can say that again.

I did those
in my cubist period.

Oh, I say
we cube this square.

[CHUCKLES]

What are you doing?

We're helping you take
this show on the road.

[GRUNTING]

[THUD]

Everyone is an art critic.

We need power.

Now to find a socket.

Ah-ha. Here's one.

[DEVICE HUMMING]

Splendid, it's charging up.

That ain't all
it's doing, boss.

Soon the rust encruster will be
charged to full power.

This will be a dark day
for the city of lights.

[LAUGHS]

[♪♪♪]

We are now approaching
the famous Paris Opera House.

Keep a sharp lookout, dudes.

We might get to see
the phantom of the opera.

I seriously doubt it.

It's booked two years
in advance.

Do not wander off,
Michelangelo.

You may get lost.

Well, no problemo, Master.

I just want to check out
this tunnel for phantoms.

Be careful what you seek,
my student.

You may just find it.

Hey, guys,
look what I found.

It's an old theatre trunk.

"Opera de Paris."

Let's see
what's inside.

Oh, wow.
A bunch of costumes.

Whoa, wouldn't it be awesome

if I really did
bump into the phantom?

Maybe he'd let me check out
what's under his mask.

[LOUD THUMP]
Whoa, what was that?

[♪♪♪]

The phantom!

SPLINTER:
Be careful what you seek,
my student.

You may just find it.

[CACKLING]

[LAUGHING]

Just chill out,
phantom dude.

I was just about to split.

[LAUGHING]

BOTH:
Boo.

[BOTH LAUGH]

What's wrong?

You look like
you've seen a phantom.

[SNICKERING]

Now, maybe that'll teach you
to wander off

when Master Splinter
advises you not to.

[RHYTHMIC HUMMING]

All right, dudes,
I've learned my lesson.

You can cool it
with the horror show.

This time it wasn't us.

Another power failure
in Paris.

I've got a feeling
something big is going on.

Sure, like sunspots.

But, chief,

it's draining
the electrical power

of the entire city.

It could be
a secret space launch,

or a UFO invasion.

Would you really care

if this was happening
in Cleveland?

Chief, if we're scooped
on this story,

Channel 6 will win
the chump-of-the-month award.

Oh, all right,
April, you win.

Go to Paris
and get that story.

Right, chief.

But, uh, fly tourist, huh?

[♪♪♪]

SPLINTER:
The Eiffel Tower

is the world's largest
freestanding metal structure.

I prefer to think of it

as the world's
most humongous jungle gym.

Ooh, man.

This climbing tour sure gives
a turtle some major munchies.

I have allowed
for your nutritional needs.

Leonardo?

Here they are,
Master Splinter.

French toast?

When in Paris,
do as the Parisians.

Oh, yuck.

[♪♪♪]

APRIL:
That's strange.

There are no lights on,
even here at the power plant.

Yoo-hoo. Anybody home?

Oh, excuse me,
Monsieur Director,

I'm April O'Neil,

a television reporter
from the States, and I--

Out of my sight.

I'm sick of all you
nosy reporters.

I just wanted to know if you're
aware of the power drain.

Of course I am aware of it.

You think I eat
by candlelight

because it is romantic?

Good. Then perhaps
you'll let me take a look

at your computerized records
and check out a few things.

Really, Mademoiselle O'Neil.

And what would you find
that the experts could not?

Haven't you ever heard
of female intuition?

I'm afraid
I'll need some more--

Blue cheese?

No. Printouts.

Hm, I have a hunch
that the problem begins

right about here,

in the artist's quarter.

[ELECTRICAL HUMMING]

There it is.
The only apartment

in all of Paris
that has electricity.

[ELECTRICITY BUZZING]

I've heard of French doors,
but this is ridiculous.

Well, here goes.

Pretty bizarre stuff.

Oh!

[SIGHS]

Don't do things
like that to me.

SHREDDER:
Let's go, you two.

It's time to start
rusting our way

to fame
and world domination.

APRIL:
Shredder and his mutants.

I might have known.

Uh, we'd better
hurry, boss.

This thing is eating up
all the power in the city.

SHREDDER:
Yes, a billion thrillawatts

is nothing to be sneezed at.
[SNEEZES]

Gesundheit.

Uh, what for?
I didn't sneeze.

[SNEEZES]

[GASPS]

[♪♪♪]

Sorry. Send me the bill.

SHREDDER:
It's April O'Neil.

Seize her!

[SNORTS]

Going someplace?

Not anymore.

Tie her up.
[BEEPING]

Nothing must stop our plans

to render this city helpless.

ROCKSTEADY:
Ooh, right, boss.

Shredder, you don't know
what you're doing.

And neither will
the rest of the world,

until it's too late.

[DEVICE BEEPING QUICKENS]

Now, remember,
you press Lever B,

then move this switch
to Position D.

This ain't gonna be easy.

I always mix
those two letters up.

If I can just saw
those ropes enough...

Got it!

Now to contact
the Turtles.

Now, pay attention.

I don't wanna keep
showing you this

over and over.

[GARBLED STATIC]

Turtles, come in, Turtles.

April calling Turtles.

Nice to see you.

Boy, you know,
the reception is great

considering you're halfway
around the world.

I'm right here in Paris.

I've been captured by Shredder.

Quick, where are you?

I'm in--

You're in deep trouble.
That's where you are.

Something's happened to April.

Thanks to you, we'll now
have to speed up our agenda.

Unplug the rust encruster
and start oxidizing

before those blasted
Turtles interfere.

Don't worry, boss.

We won't rust

until the whole city
is rested.

Uh, that didn't come out right.

Yeah, well,
with your brain

it's as close
as I could hope for.

Look around, Ms. O'Neil.

This is the last
you'll ever see

of this enchanted city.

And perhaps
any other city as well.

[LAUGHING]

[♪♪♪]

April is in trouble.
We must help her.

You're right, sensei.

We must try every possible way
to rescue her.

Well, if I could have
a few minutes alone,

I might be able to zero in
on her coordinates.

Here you are, little girl.

One café au lait,
fudge ripple.

Merci beaucoup,
Monsieur Ice Cream Man.

All right.

The rust encruster got wheels.

[ENGINE STARTS]

[CHUCKLES]

These ice cream trucks
are really cool.

[INDISTINCT COMMOTION]

Whoa, sounds like
mucho activity topside.

I wonder what's going on.

I'll try to find out.

I've got the police
emergency band.

Be on the lookout
for two suspects.

One has a long snout and tusks,

the other resembles
a cochon.

Cochon?

That's French for "pig."

That has to be Rocksteady
and Bebop.

I wonder what brings
those dudes here.

Fellas, let's take it
to the streets.

ALL:
Turtle power!

[HORN HONKING]

[ALL SHOUT]

[TIRES SCREECH]

LEONARDO:
Here the come again.

Let's see how those shellheads
handle our rust encruster.

Whoa, time to make
turtle tracks!

So long, suckers.

[CHORTLES]

[♪♪♪]

RAPHAEL:
Donatello, any leads

on April's whereabouts?

I'm still trying
to pick up some kind of signal.

But whatever is draining
the city's power

is also causing a lot
of interference.

Hey, dudes. There's that
mondo erector set again.

All right,
the Eiffel Tower.

Maybe all that iron will pull in
a stronger signal.

Come on, let's head for it.

[♪♪♪]

Beautiful, ain't it?

Oh, yeah.

I love defacing
world-famous masterpieces,

don't you?

[ALL SCREAMING]

Rust is just.

You said a mouthful.

It's Rocksteady and Bebop.

They're rusting
the Eiffel Tower.

Who you gonna call?

ALL:
Rustbusters!

[♪♪♪]

It's those shellheads.

Ooh, I'll fix them.

ALL:
Whoa!

All right,
you creepazoids.

You're about to tangle
with Turtles.

[GRUNTS]

Watch it, lug nut.

Whoa--
Who you calling a lug nut?

You-- You warthead.

Raphael, it looks like
Donatello and Michelangelo

can handle this themselves.

Let's find April.

Hey. Come back
with our ice cream truck.

Yeah.

I didn't have
my fudge ripple sundae yet.

Good news, Krang.

The Eiffel Tower
is at a point of collapse.

KRANG:
Now I can announce
to the world leaders

that they must use
their technology to help

beam the Technodrome
down to Earth.

If they refuse,
their cities will be rusted

just like old Paris.

Well, what's the delay?

I've already set up
a satellite link

to the world's
television stations

so you can deliver
your address.

Don't rush me.

It's hard to find
a decent makeup man

here in Dimension X.

You don't need a makeup man,
you need a plastic surgeon.

I heard that.

Look, that loft
has electricity.

Either that or the world's
largest collection of fireflies.

[TRUCK ENGINE WINDS DOWN]

[♪♪♪]

April, are you all right?

Leonardo, Raphael,

am I glad to see you.

I am too.

Your shells will make
a fine addition

to my trophy collection.

Shredder, we knew you were
at the bottom of this.

And you'll be
at the bottom of this:

[GRUNTS]

Say au revoir,

it's time
for you to rest...

in pieces!

Wha--? Uh, I can't see.

[GRUNTS]

We'll meet again, Turtles.

Why don't we take
the stairs?

We'll take the window.

It's more in keeping
with our heroic image.

[♪♪♪]

DONATELLO:
Gotta get to the Eiffel Tower.

Huh! Now, this is
what I call fun.

Whoa-oh, be right back.
Save my place.

Yo, rhino-breath,

bet you can't hit me.

Oh, no?

Hey, way to go,
Michelangelo.

No problemo, dude.

[HORN HONKING]

[YELLS]

Turtle power!
Turtle power!

You two are about to see stars.

Watch it, low bridge.

Try this
on the 6:00 news.

Huh?

That's it.
Just look natural.

Naturally stupid.

Bingo. Come to
Uncle Michelangelo.

Whoa, now that I've got it,

I wonder how you operate
this gizmo.

[SNICKERING]

What a dimbo.

You're as incompetent
as my two mutants.

Au contraire,
mon frère

That means,
don't count on it, tin brain.

I'm frozen. Oil me.
Oil me.

Oil yourself, Shredman.

Let's nail these dudes.

Grab the boss
and let's get out of here.

They're gone.

Yeah, called back
to Dimension X, no doubt.

For an x-rated lecture
from Krang.

Shredder, you incompetent ninny.

I send you to do a job
and you foul it up.

Is this all
I can expect of you?

Answer me, blast it!
Answer me!

Oil. I need oil.

How's it coming,
Donatello?

There, it's finished.

I've reversed the polarity.

If it works,
it should bring

all the metal back
to its original state.

Fire when ready,
Donatello.

Bodacious!

This is better
than a new paint job.

Well, that's that.

Things are back to normal
in the city of lights.

I think a celebration
is in order.

Uh, speaking of order.

What do you say we order
a pizza for breakfast?

Michelangelo, is that all
you think about? Pizza?

Heck no, bro.

I think about plenty
of other things,

and some of them
are pretty heavy.

Oh, yeah? Like what?

Oh, well,
like lasagna, ravioli

and spaghetti and meatballs.
[ALL LAUGHING]

Manicotti
and-- And eggplant Parmesan.

[♪♪♪]
