Raphael:It may look like just another day in the Battle Nexus

with the crowds and the cheering.

But trust me, this day was gonna be special.

I was looking forward to somebody

finally shutting Mikey up about being Battle Nexus champion.

But it was starting to look

like they were gonna shut Mikey up permanently.

- You're asking for this, Leo! - Big time!

( grunts )

Give it up, Leo! You're goin' down!

( groaning )

Again!

Leo, if I have to attack you one more time,

I'm gonna really attack you!

I'm all for training, but I think you're going a little overboard.

I said, again!

All right, that's it!

You and me are having words about this attitude of yours lately. I--

Splinter: Raphael, Leonardo! Enough!

Your brothers are not incorrect, Leonardo.

It is sufficient for today.

We will discuss your training further after we collect Michelangelo.

Huh? Hey, where is Bozo the turtle?

Male announcer: Justice Force. Filmed on location...

-with the men and women... - Yeah!

of the world's premier hero team.

Best show ever!

- ( slurping ) - ( clears throat )

Oh, hey. Is the break over already?

Mikey, you been blowing off all our training sessions lately.

What is the big deal?

So I missed one little sparring match.

If I have to deal

with Mr. Intensity's little war games here, so do you!

You are not taking your studies seriously, Michelangelo.

Come on, guys.

I don't need to train. I'm the--

Don't say it! Don't you say it!

Battle Nexus champion.

- ( grunting ) - What?

What is that you rub your big win in our faces every chance you get.

Mikey, you keep the trophy on top of the TV!

It's a wonder you don't wear that thing around your neck!

I tried. The chain kept breaking.

You won the Battle Nexus Championship

by sheer dumb luck.

Emphasis on the dumb part!

Well, if I remember correctly, I beat you fair and square.

Ooh, I don't wanna see this.

Michelangelo, you need to train.

And more importantly, you should approach your accomplishments with humility.

You mean, accomplishments like being the greatest warrior in all the Multiverse, right?

Come on. Training? I'm the Battle Nexus champ-- Whoa!

( grunts )

( gasps )

Wha--

Mikey! Mikey, hang on!

What is the meaning of this?

The laws of the Battle Nexus do not--

Take them all!

( grunts )

Now, where were we, champion?

( grunting )

Maybe we can talk about this! Over coffee or something.

Kluh, tear him apart!

( grunts )

In the name of the Ultimate Daimyo,

you are ordered to cease all combat.

On what grounds?

My son and I were told this challenge was approved.

Your son, Kluh, will face the champion in the time and place

stated by Battle Nexus ceremony and law,

as it has been ordained and executed for all time,

as you well know, Ammag.

Master Splinter, what the shell is happening?

Silence, Michelangelo.

Am I to understand

that Michelangelo has been challenged?

Based on the interferences

in the final match of the Battle Nexus Championship,

Ammag has appealed the decision on Kluh's behalf.

The Daimyo has granted Kluh an honored right of query

to be answered only by ordained combat.

In third earth vernacular, a rematch.

Wait a minute! Are you saying-- Don, what's he saying?

Oh, I hope he's saying what I think he's saying!

You're going back to the Battle Nexus, Mikey, to fight Kluh!

- Man, it stinks to be you. - Huh?

This is the best day of my life.

In three days' time,

the champion will defend his honor

at the Battle Nexus.

( grunts )

We are well aware

of your disdain for Battle Nexus rules, Ammag.

There will be no combat outside the arena.

In three days, all will be decided.

Three days.

I will grind your bones to dust and take my honor back!

So, who's up for some training?

I'll tell you what I'm up for.

Watching you get pounded into paste!

Oh, I cannot wait!

But you don't need to train, right, Mikey?

After all, you're the champion.

Master Splinter, you'll help me, right? You'll train me.

Training, Michelangelo?

Surely there are comic books I could be reading.

Or perhaps I could go watch television instead.

Wait, my son. I know.

Perhaps instead of training, I will go eat pizza.

( laughter )

Yes, pizza sounds very appetizing right now.

With pepperoni and karma.

Hey! Ohh.

I'll help you train.

Oh, Leo, really?

You'll train me? Ha, ha! Thanks, bro.

I wouldn't start rubbing my shell just yet.

We've got a lot of work to do.

I really appreciate you guys coming to support me.

Support? ( laughs )

I wouldn't miss you taking this beating for all the world.

( chanting )

Michelangelo: Well, looks like no one's home. Might as well head back.

- ( slaps ) - Ow!

Splinter: Come. Battle Nexus rules dictate Michelangelo must present himself

at the Pavilion of Past Champions.

Raphael: Knock it off, Mikey. You're gonna attract pigeons.

I think somebody's jealous.

( blows raspberry )

Looks like the Ultimate Ninja's looking for a rematch, Leo.

The Daimyo's son.

Honored guests, welcome once again to the Battle Nexus.

Old friend, it is good to see you well.

And you, old friend.

You must be proud to see your son Michelangelo

honor you in battle once more.

Couldn't I just honor you back home?

You know, breakfast in bed, a foot massage?

Raphael: Oh, don't let him fool you, Daimyo.

Mikey can't wait to get in there

and prove he's the real champion.

( grunting )

I can't remember some things, but I remember you.

Did we play together?

Uh, yeah, we did.

- You shall be my friend. - Sure.

Come, my friends. The arena.

Donatello: Gyoji, I thought the tournament was only held every three years.

True, Donatello.

But in honor of the challenge, we are holding what you would call "exhibition matches."

Michelangelo: Oh, yeah, I forgot about that.

Worse comes to worse, I get zapped out

before I take the big dirt nap.

- Yeah, but after you take a horrendous beating. - ( crowd cheering )

Man, I should've had Don bring the video camera.

( spectators groan )

Come on. We have work to do.

I could have destroyed him a thousand times over by now, Father.

Why must we bend to the Daimyo's laws?

Because we must show them all what it means to cross us.

Those that witnessed your humiliation by this turtle's hands

shall now witness your vengeance.

All has been arranged.

Michelangelo: I gotta get outta here!

Is that why we're climbing this thing?

So I can find a cave to hide in?

I don't wanna get pummeled, Leo. What am I gonna do?

Ah. Wow.

I brought you up here to clear your mind, Mikey.

- Focus on what's important. - Like going home?

No. Like pushing yourself beyond your limits

to a place where there are no limits.

To be so focused, so ready,

that nothing and no one will ever catch you off-guard again.

Um, we still talking about me here?

In this life, we only have each other.

If one of us goes down, we all go down.

So focus.

Leo, maybe, just maybe--

maybe I can still forfeit.

- ( gong sounds ) - ( cheering )

Showtime! Who brought the popcorn?

( grunts ) And then he'll probably break my legs!

I've had my legs broken before. It's no fun.

Michelangelo, you can win this. I know you can.

Champion?

If Leonardo believes you can win, then I do too.

It is time, champion.

( sighs ) Here goes nothin'.

Let's get you back to your father.

( gasps )

( laughs maniacally )

You and the boy will be going nowhere, turtle!

Except perhaps to join your weakling brother in the afterlife!

Whatever dishonorable plan you're hatching, the Daimyo will stop you!

( laughs ) I think not.

The Daimyo sees us as barbarians.

But we Levram are not without our own magic.

Even as we speak,

my wizard is mystically removing the safety spells

surrounding the Battle Nexus arena.

The battle between my son and your brother

will be a fight to the finish!

I will have Michelangelo's head on my wall!

That is the Levram way!

- Look out! - ( grunts )

Now we shall settle this right of query by ordained combat.

Crowd ( chanting ): Turtle! Turtle! Turtle!

Turtle soup, more likely.

( chanting )

Oh, something is not right.

( growling )

( shrieks )

( gasps )

That's not right!

Why didn't Mikey disappear?

Kluh's weapon shouldn't have even touched him.

Daimyo, what is happening here?

Someone is magically altering the laws of the Battle Nexus.

- Yes! Now the combat is mortal! - ( crowd gasps )

And my son's victory will only be complete

when the turtle lies crushed and lifeless.

You did this? That's it, whack bag!

- You and me are having words! - No!

You presume too much, Ammag.

The essence of the Battle Nexus flows through me.

I can feel your wizard now.

I will put an end to--

You will do nothing, Daimyo, unless you would risk this.

( whimpering )

No! My son!

- ( chuckles ) - No!

Now, now you'll learn the meaning of pain.

I should be running out of here any second now.

No one can save you this time.

- No interference. - ( grunts )

( grunting )

- ( crowd gasps ) - Do you hear that?

It is the sound of your own defeat.

Soon it will be over.

First for you and then for your pathetic family.

( laughs )

In this life, we only have each other.

If one of us goes down, we all go down.

So focus.

All right, if this is what you want, come on then!

( growling )

I lost my son once. I cannot lose him again.

And you won't!

What?

No one could defeat three Levram warriors. Impossible!

Nothing is impossible, Ammag, especially when one fights with true honor.

I will destroy you.

( yelling )

Gaze upon what you have done, Ammag.

Now your son's life hangs in the balance.

I will let Michelangelo decide your fate

and the fate of your son.

No!

Do it! Finish me!

( spectators murmuring )

I don't think so.

My father taught me better than that.

Besides, you're already finished.

( cheering )

Michelangelo, step forward.

For your valor and nobleness of character,

I hereby award you the Battle Nexus Medal

for unparalleled honor.

( applause )

And I thought the trophy was bad.

Aw, we're never gonna hear the end of this.

I'm gonna have to move out.

So wicked!

Leo, I wanted to say thanks.

You did good, Mikey. You did good.
