April quotes from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012)

Casey

April, you okay?

April

Yeah. It just feels like I lost my family all over again, even it really wasn't my mom. Maybe...maybe she is gone forever. But maybe she's still out there...somewhere.

Leonardo

You can't give up hope. Trust me on that.

Michelangelo

And you haven't lost your family 'cause we are your family.

Casey

Are they sick?

April

No, but I sense they're getting weaker, like something is draining the life out of them.

Casey

That Bernie guy asked if we'd been feeling tired.

April

And that book he had. Somnioruim- it's Latin for "dreams" or "of the dreams."

Casey

I'm gonna see what's in that book. You do what you can here.

Michelangelo

Is that a tiara? I love tiaras.

Donatello

It's not a tiara. It's a psychic neural transmitter.

Michelangelo

Whoa, that was gonna be my second guess.

April

Donnie salvaged it from the Kraang ship. He's gonna use it to test my psychic powers.

Michelangelo

Cool.

Leonardo

April, you’re-...you're blind?

April

Not exactly. Somehow I got a psychic connection to the monster. Maybe from Donnie's neurotransmitter? I'm seeing through its eyes. I know where it's taking them. And-.

Donnie

Remember, it's not just physical strength that breaks the wood. It's also inner strength.

April

I got this.

April

There's got to be a way to reach him.

Casey

Red, remember the time when you reached the guys through their dreams? Maybe you could the same for Splinter. You know, like mind meld and stuff.

Donatello

Based on my research on telepathy, it might be possible.

Leo

Karai's still out there. The last thing she said to me was the word "comet."

Casey

So what's that mean? A giant comet's coming? The Earth's doomed?

April

Seems like it could be a location. Maybe where she's hiding out.

Don

Are you kidding!? You do one awesome thing and you can't even remember how you did it!!?

Splinter

Donatello, be glad that Michelangelo's tomfoolery yielded the gift that it did. You must find all the humans and turn them back.

Raphael

We don't even know where they are.

April

I think I do. They were taken to Dimension X by the Kraang. I see them in my dreams. Millions of people, trapped there.

Michelangelo

They saw something, but they don't know what.

[on TV] And that "something" seemed to be four human-sized mutant turtles.

April

At least she doesn't know they're ninjas.

[on TV] And they appeared to be carrying ninja weapons.

April

Or that they're named after artists?

[on TV] Furthermore, they may also be…

April

[turns off the TV, annoyed] Oh, doesn't she ever shut up?

Splinter

[angrily, turns on his sons] How could you all be so careless!? Secrecy is the most important rule of the ninja, and you have broken it! You four are forbidden from leaving the lair!

Raphael

[shocked, enraged] What!? You can't hold that sloppy escape against us! We got slimed with toxic puke!

Splinter

[angrily] Silence!

Donatello

But, Sensei, if that pile of muck took us down, you know he's dangerous.

Leonardo

Which means we need to be out there looking for him.

Splinter

[angrily] No! Until I decide I can trust you to watch yourselves, you will remain here, grounded! [storms off as The Turtles disappointed at this.]

[groans]

Michelangelo

Oh, yeah. Crognard marathon.

Splinter

[Throws his staff at the television set] And no TV!

Splinter

[angrily, comes out of his dojo] Did you not hear what I sa… [sees that his sons are in the living room, doing their activities. Splinter leaves. The Turtles try to leave, but were shocked when Splinter blocked their exit with an angry look on his face. April decides to help out by making a distraction.]

April

Oh, oh, whoa! Uh, help!

Splinter

April! What happened? Did you… [sees that his sons are already gone.] [unhappy] April.

April

[nervously smiling] Um, thanks for the save?

Splinter

April, what's wrong?

April

I don't know, Sensei. I sense something's wrong with Donnie. Maybe...maybe's he distracted.

Donnie

I hate to interrupt, but someone's been following us for the last half hour or so.

April

Weird. I don't sense anyone at all.

Donnie

See for yourself.

April

Bishop, why do the Triceratons hate the Kraang?

Bishop

For millennia, the two species have fought over Dimension X. The Kraang use intelligence to battle their foe while the Triceratons rely on brute strength and cunning. It seemed the Triceratons would win, but the Kraang used the most powerful weapon in the universe, a black-hole generator that wiped out the Triceratons entire planet. Only a single Triceraton fleet survived. They vowed vengeance. The battle may have won, but the war has not. It still rages across Dimension X. Now shall we begin?

April

Did that just happen?

Leo

The Earth, Splinter, everyone- everything.

Donnie

Gone. Lost in an endless gravitational pull of singularity.

Mikey

Holy pepperoni.

The Fugitoid

Watching your world fall into the singularity of a back hole is rather distressing. Can I offer you some coco?

Mikey

Dude, who are you?

The Fugitoid

My name is Professor Zayton Honeycutt and you, my friends, are about to embark on a wondrous adventure.

Casey

This is so METAL!!!

Raphael

What... what just happened? We're actually alive?

Donatello

I think we... we went back in time, about six months, based on where the Earth is in its revolution around the sun.

Leonardo

Six months? Then that means everyone's back? Including Master Splinter?

Fugitoid

Yes, Leonardo, but only for six months, and then, the Earth is doomed once more. Apologies.

April

I get it. We stop the Triceratons before they ever get a chance to use the Black Hole on Earth.

Fugitoid

Indeed. The Triceratons are spending this time searching the universe for the three fragments of the black hole weapon. Many years ago, the Utroms broke the machine into three pieces, hiding each fragment in the safest parts of the galaxy they could find. We must find them before the Triceratons find the fragments and reassemble them.

Michelangelo

And if we mess up, we just time travel back, right?

Fugitoid

No, no, no, no. A Black Hole prevents repeated localized time travel because even time is subject to its attraction. If we fail, Earth is lost forever. But on the bright side, whoever gets a second chance?

Casey

So why do you care, alien robot dude? Why are you helping us?

Raphael

Yeah, who are you anyway?

Fugitoid

My name is Professor Zayton Honeycutt. I'm a friend of the Utroms. It was Bishop who sent me, and plus, I've always wanted to see Earth.
