Recap / Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) S05E14 "Leonardo Cuts Loose"

Go To

Beefcake strongmen exhibiting superhuman strength pull a string of burglaries and property damage, so the Turtles and their old ally Casey Jones are keen to investigate.


Tropes

  • The Ahnold: Wally and the Brawny Brothers are all musclebound men with Austrian accents. Wally even says "I'll be back."
  • An Aesop: Keen intelligence beats Dumb Muscle any day!
  • The Bus Came Back: Yet another episode featuring Casey Jones.
  • Here We Go Again!: Casey Jones claims that he learned not to just rush in cocksure like he usually does... then a man litters on the sidewalk and he runs after him.
  • Hypocrite: During the final fight, when Wally and his men have lost their Super-Strength, one of the goons complains to Raphael that it's not fair because the Turtles are stronger than them now.
    Raphael: (Sarcastically) Oh, sure! It was hunky dory when you could drop a roof on our heads! (Slams a trashcan over the goon)
  • Oh, No... Not Again!: Raphael has this reaction when the strongmen collapse a building onto the Turtles for a second time.
  • Super-Strength: Wally Airhead and his various brawny goons display feats of inhuman strength thanks to Strongium 90, a large ray gun that emits energies that stimulate human muscles at an accelerated rate.
