- Raphael: What's wrong, April?
- April O'Neil: I'm worried about my job. Burne Thompson said I better come up with a big story or...
- Raphael: Or what?
- April O'Neil: Or I won't be around to celebrate my second year.
- [Donatello puts on a disguise]
- Donatello: Hey, I know what'll cheer you up. Irma, I need you.
- Irma Langinstein: [smiles bashfully] Ooh!
- Donatello: Easy, Irma. It's only to help me pick up a pizza.
- [Irma sulks]
- Shredder: [gives a device to Rocksteady] This will locate the energy source. Now, go!
- Rocksteady: Right away, boss. Um, where are we going to?
- Shredder: To the fission plant! The fission plant!
- [later, Rocksteady and Bebop are fishing at a fish packing plant]
- Rocksteady: You know, this fishing's the easiest job we ever had.
- Bebop: Yeah.
- [Rocksteady's comlink beeps]
- Rocksteady: Yeah, boss?
- Shredder: Well? Did you find it?
- Rocksteady: No, boss. We've been fishing here for three hours and we ain't had a nibble.
- Shredder: Fishing? I sent you out for FISSION, not FISHING!
- [the turtles find marks on the sidewalk]
- Michelangelo: Like, what would've made these weird burn marks?
- Raphael: Only one thing: Some poor klutz must have dropped one of Peppito's hot chili pizzas.
- [foot soldiers charge towards Leonardo and Michelangelo]
- Michelangelo: Hey, dude, what goes "quack, quack"?
- Leonardo: Uh, duck?
- Michelangelo: Exactamundo!
- [Leonardo and Michelangelo both duck down and two foot soldiers crash into each]
- Shredder: [blows open the door] I have won! The alien's power is in my hands!
- Rocksteady: In mine, too!
- [accidentally fires into the air]
- Rocksteady: Oops!
- Shredder: I just can't take you anywhere.
- Shredder: [after capturing Splinter and Donatello] Get used to those chains, Splinter. You'll be wearing them for a long time, but first I have a world to conquer and a pompous, self-important brain to make beg for mercy!
- [the alien's toy is about to destroy the world]
- April O'Neil: I've got an idea.
- [gives her camera to Raphael]
- April O'Neil: Keep that camera running!
- [April climbs down the hole to the alien's toy]
- Leonardo: What's she doing?
- Raphael: Ah, with women, you never know.
- [the alien's toy suddenly shuts down]
- Donatello: It stopped!
- [April climbs back out of the hole]
- April O'Neil: There. So much for that.
- Donatello: Wha... How'd you do that, April?
- April O'Neil: [pulls out a device] Simple. Every kid's toy has batteries.
- Krang: You thought you were going to have it all. Instead, you have zip!
- Shredder: Look who's talking. You don't even have hands to fix your equipment.
- Bebop: Uh, let me help, boss.
- [Bebop slams the module door on Shredder's hand]
- Shredder: Ooowww!
- [Shredder hops around in pain]
- Krang: Keep that up and you won't have hands, either!
- Donatello: Hey, I just got off the interstellar transmitter with Klaatu. He said they'll return in the year 4989.
- Michelangelo: Whoa! I better start cooking some pizzas!
- Leonardo: Michelangelo, they won't be back for another 3000 years.
- Michelangelo: Why wait 'til the last minute?
- Vernon Fenwick: [Vernon sits in April's chair] And of course, I'd like a new chair.
- April O'Neil: [walks into her office] Vernon! What are you doing at my desk?
- Vernon Fenwick: Your desk?
- [chuckles]
- Vernon Fenwick: Tell her, Burne.
- Burne Thompson: April, there'll be changes around here and real soon.
- April O'Neil: Changes? But I've got the biggest story of the century.
- Burne Thompson: Not bigger than Vernon's story, and I'm sending him out to cover it.
- Vernon Fenwick: I found out there's some strange radiation coming from the new reactor at the university.
- April O'Neil: But my story is much bigger, Mr. Thompson! If you'd just let me tell you about...
- Burne Thompson: [cuts April off] Ah, ah! April, if you want to tag along on Vernon's radiation story, you can as his camera operator.
- April O'Neil: Camera operator? Me? Oh, my life is over!
