Original subtitles

Leonardo: I've traveled thousands of miles looking for an answer,

only to wind up here, halfway across the world

in the middle of nowhere,

battling it out with four nasty creatures,

more ghosts than man,

but whose steel is all too real.

Meanwhile, my traveling companion, some gross slob

who attached himself to me like a bloated tick,

doesn't do a thing to help out.

He just sits there, grinning like a fool,

leaving me to fight for both our lives.

I've journeyed halfway across the world in search of answers,

and instead, all I'm gonna get is my head chopped off.

Leonardo: I already told you, I'm fine.

Splinter: You are sure?

Nothing's the matter, Sensei,

why do you keeping asking me that?

So much anger.

The unopened bottle will burst

when it's internal pressure becomes too much to bear.

For months now you have been brooding, surly, and stubborn.

Yeah, right.

( grunting )

You have not been yourself.

You must release what festers within you.

Your family will help you, Leonardo.

It is important that we be open with one another.

Open? Okay.

This katana lesson stinks.

I mastered this years ago. Years ago!

It is not the student's place

to say when a lesson is learned.

The student's place is to listen and learn.

Something tells me the cork's about to pop on that unopened bottle.

That hothead.

I hate it when Leo reminds me of me.

I've already mastered this lesson,

and yesterday's lesson,

and the lesson before that!

When are you going to teach me something I don't already know?

( groans )

- Master Splinter! - Are you okay?

Leo, what the shell is your problem?

Master, Master, I'm so sorry.

I--I didn't mean to hurt you.

I just--I just lost control.

Sit down, my son.

Master, I--I don't know what to say.

Say nothing. Listen.

We were all badly wounded in our final confrontation with The Shredder.

Your brothers and I have healed, but you have not.

I have meditated long and hard on this matter

and now realize that you are correct.

Hmm?

It is time for you to move on.

It is time for you to study with a new Sensei.

But--but Master, I don't want a new Sensei.

I'm happy here with you.

I know there's so much more that you can teach me.

No, my son.

It is as it must be.

Now, there is but one master in all the world

that I would entrust my son's well being to.

He is wise, honorable, and highly skilled.

He is called the Ancient One, and he was the Sensei

to my Sensei, Hamato Yoshi.

You must make a pilgrimage,

a pilgrimage halfway across the world.

But, Sensei--

Come, let us prepare you for your journey.

( fog horn blares )

Japan.

Let us teach this puny thing a lesson, brother.

What is it that you seek?

I seek the Ancient One.

You seek the Ancient One?

You funny-looking little green man,

you not even old enough to be a man.

You a child, an itty, bitty child.

Oh, yes.

Go home itty bitty poopy face.

( laughing )

That's it.

I didn't come all this way just to turn around and go home.

Looks like itty bitty baby's going to cry.

( laughing )

( shouting )

( grunts )

Yes. Itty bitty baby very,

very cranky now.

It is time cranky baby

be put to bed.

( laughing )

Have you learned anything, little one?

A warrior who attacks in anger...

Is a warrior who never wins.

That is the lesson.

Go to that rock face until your shadow is in front of you.

Walk on your shadow with eyes closed for seven paces.

Open eyes

and you will have reached the hidden man.

And remember the lesson, itty bitty poopy face.

( laughing )

Well, nobody said it wasn't going to get weird.

( eagle cries )

( farts )

Ugh!

Heh heh. Nice one, eh?

Um, sir, could I ask you for some directions?

I'm trying to find my way to someone called the Ancient One.

Ancient One, eh?

Trust me, I know the way to that old windbag.

( farts )

But it gonna cost you, monkey boy.

You got yen? Give me yen.

You got dollars? Give me dollars.

But I don't have any.

Give me food then.

Uh, but I don't have much food.

You got donuts? Give me donuts.

You got beef jerky? Give me beef jerky.

You got pork rinds?

( farts ) Give me pork rinds.

Sorry, but I don't have any of those things.

Mostly I have, uh, trail mix.

You green kumquat.

Trail mix is for ponies.

What else you got?

Uh, I have some dried fruit,

some peanut butter, uh, chocolate.

Chocolate? Give me chocolate.

Give me now!

Uh, okay.

Ah.

You got more? Give me!

Let's save it for later.

Are you sure you know the way to the Ancient One?

( farts )

All roads lead to the Ancient One, green monkey boy.

But some roads are shorter than others.

( farts )

Um, uh, the path continues in this direction?

I said some roads are shorter than others,

that means a shortcut, stupid.

Capisce?

( farts )

( farts )

Man, you are unbelievable.

It's just air. ( farts )

Ugh.

( growling )

And that? What was that?

Demon ghost coming down the trail.

Demon what? What are you talking about?

( growling )

Get ready, we may have to defend ourselves.

Don't be so tense, monkey turtle.

If we don't bother them, they won't bother us.

Remain silent and they will continue on their ghostly way.

Really?

Trust me.

( growling )

( farts )

( growls )

It's just air.

Tell that to them!

( grunts )

Don't get up to help or anything.

I will not.

Now, where'd you hide that chocolate?

Whoa!

Okay. I see where this is heading.

They can hurt me,

but I can't hurt them.

Which means...

there's no way I can win.

I'm gonna lose.

Poor dumb kumquat.

How about helping me out here?

How about surrendering?

What? That's your advice?

That's ridiculous.

Just say I surrender.

But that's stupid.

( growling )

To surrender is not a warrior's way.

You won't be much of a warrior without a head.

I surrender.

I lost.

I failed, again.

( burps )

You're stupid. You alive, right?

A warrior who never fails never learns.

The end of the trail, monkey turtle. ( farts )

The Ancient One lives on top of this mountain deep within a temple.

Great. Let's go.

The temple grounds are guarded and perilous to those who are unworthy.

You think yourself worthy, kumquat?

I do.

Hmm, okay.

Your funeral.

So what makes you think you're worthy?

This. ( farts )

Um, me in front, okay?

Ugh!

The temple of the Ancient One lies within.

( farts )

Prepare yourself, kumquat!

Now you must prove yourself

against your most dangerous adversary.

( rumbling )

I smell your fear and your failure.

You are not worthy.

( shouts )

You are doomed to fail

as you have always failed yourself and others.

You don't know what you're talking about.

( grunts )

I know you better than you know yourself.

Help me! I'm hurt!

We're not gonna make it!

Leo, help me!

( grunting )

Leo, The Shredder's coming for us, you gotta do something!

Ah!

Save us, Leonardo.

We are all counting on you, my son.

I'm sorry.

( roars )

I did the best I could. I did the best I could!

There wasn't any more I could have done!

Huh?

If there was nothing more you could have done,

why do you punish yourself so?

I finally understand.

Ancient One, I am honored.

Well, took you long enough, Leonardo.

Now, Leonardo, tell an old man just what it is

you think you have learned.

I guess I've been--I--

I've been obsessed with failing.

I hardened my heart like a rock,

wrapped up inside my own shell,

trying to be perfect, thinking I wasn't good enough,

that I needed to be better,

so angry, ow--what?

Too many words. Explain simply.

I've been my own worst enemy.

Much better.

Now, relax and enjoy your tea and let me tell you

a tale of Master Yoshi.

When Yoshi found himself at the crossroads,

not dissimilar to your own...
