Master Splinter, the Turtles and April and Casey return to the old Jones farm to recuperate and recount their experiences with The Shredder.
This episode provides examples of
- Accidental Hand-Hold: When Splinter mentions that the Shredder had a "hand" in making everyone suffer, April and Casey realize that they're still holding hands, to which they break away in cheerful embarrassment.
- Clip Show: The entire episode serves as this as a sort of Recap Episode, presumably so that viewers can re-watch the turtles fights with The Shredder so far with the added knowledge of hindsight that The Shredder is actually an Utrom.
- For Want Of A Nail: Donatello realizes that because of this, the Shredder was a part of the turtles' mutation origin.
- No One Could Survive That!: Said by April in regards to Shredder being caught in the explosion in the previous episode. After all the other times they thought him dead, the Turtles are rightly skeptical.
- Shout-Out: The first time Mikey uses the line "What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?". He also imitates Darth Vader.
- You Watch Too Much X: After Leo gives a heartwarming speech about family Mikey suggests he's watching too many after school specials.
