Donatello Did you turn the computer on? Have you plugged it in? Yeah, that would help.

Spoken like a true has-been.
Donatello Well, look who woke up. I suppose you think Nightwatcher is some kind of hero.
Beats sitting around doing nothing while dirtbags run free.
Did anyone get the license plate of that thing that hit us last night? It looked like your mom dude!
Donatello Yeah. That would make her your mom too, doofus.
I heard his [Nightwatcher's] bike, turns into a plane, or like, a jet pack. Don, you're so smart, how come we don't have jet packs?
Donatello Yeah, that's good Mikey, except I don't even trust you with a drivers license. Have you seen the way this guy is--
[Donatello is interrupted by a roar coming from a construction site.]
Alright, but remember, we're up here for training.
Y'know what I always say: Train by doing, dude.
Donatello Mikey, when have you ever said that?
Donatello That would be the swirling vortex to another world, I assume.
Cool. I want one.
[The stone Generals have just thrown Winters across the lobby of the Winterscorp building.]
Winters.
Looks more like fall, get it?
Donatello Mikey, remember our talk.
Reporter
And with rocketing interest rates, that's bad news for homeowners as the real estate market continues its downward spiral. Coming up, the vigilante known as Nightwatcher strikes again.
Man
Ooh, now, I can't say for sure, but he was definitely an alien.
Woman
[angrily; in bitter disgust]
I think it's a disgrace, taking the law into your own hands like that. Leave it to the police!
[about the police; remembering the old days]
I remember how that used to feel, busting up crime syndicates. Sure, they had a bunch of guns, but they weren't like these guns. [flexes his muscles]
Donatello [sighs; unamused]
Why do you do this to yourself, Mikey? Those glory days are over. Forget about them. Get on with your life. Concentrate on your work.
[also sarcastically]
Well, look who woke up. [seriously; sick and tired of Raph's laziness] I suppose you think the Nightwatcher's some kind of hero.
Raph
[jumps down]
Beats sitting around doing nothing while dirtbags run free. [crushes a soda can with his bare fist]
I would love to know what it is that you do that's so great. At least we're contributing around here, all you do is sleep all day.
Raph
[disrespectfully]
Yeah. I do nothing. You're right. [points an accusing finger at Donnie] You got me all figured out.
[losing his patience]
Well, I know that your rogue attitude has always been a source of contention to this team. You think fear is the best way to accomplish things, [raising his voice] but you're wrong.
Raph
First of all, this "team" you speak of doesn't exist anymore. And second of all... [almost punches Donnie, who flinches]
Raph
[smugly]
Heh, I think I made my point.
[defensively]
That doesn't prove anything. [Raph leaves the room; to Splinter; under his breath, bitterly] Why couldn't you send him away for training?
Donatello, this home has become like an empty shell. Each of your brothers has strengths and weaknesses. You must learn to be strong when they are weak. If you don't learn to recognize this, then all hope is lost for our family.
