Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) quotes

Shredder

Why were you hunting the Turtles?!

Karai

They don't talk much outside their little houses.

Kr-kr-Kraang is lacking the knowledge to answer the questions that the one known as Shredder is asking of Kraang.

Shredder

[surprised] Do they all speak like this?

Even if Kraang is possessing the knowledge, the one known as Shredder will never be getting that knowledge from Kraang.

Karai

You didn't have any other plans for today, did you?

Shredder

Let's try this again! [unsheathes one of his gauntlet blades and points at the Kraang threateningly] Why were you hunting the Turtles!?

The Turtles are protecting the life-form that is needed by Kraang. The one known as April O'Neil.

Shredder

Who is this April O'Neil?

She is the one known as "the one." She is the link that is missing in the plan of Kraang.

Karai

So this April O'Neil is at the center of everything.

Shredder

Then perhaps we can use her to bring the Turtles out of hiding. Karai, find this girl and bring her to me.

Karai

What makes you so special!!? You're the center of an alien conspiracy, protected by mutants, and trained by a great ninja master!! Why!!

April

I don't know!! I'm flunking trig! My friends are mutants! Aliens got my dad! And I lost my mother!

Karai

What? You lost your mother?

April

[recalls what Splinter had told her about unbalancing her opponent] AHHH!! [Flips Karai down the subway steps] Not bad for a nobody.

Mikey

[with Leo's katana swords] Look, I'm Leo. [deeper pitched voice] Guys, shh. We have to be quiet. Ninjas are quiet. Quiet down.

Leo

[offended] I sound nothing like that!

Raph

[sarcastically] Yes, that's why we're laughing, because you sound nothing like that.

Pulverizer

This is my chance to be like you guys. Once I mutate I'll unleash all my awesome mutant powers on Shredder.

Donnie

Uh, doing the mutation thing is notoriously unpredictable and really stupid!

Mikey

Hey, Raph! Fire the weapons!

Raph

I don't think so.

Mikey

See, that's your problem. If I were in charge of weapons, I'd be firing at things all the time. That mailbox, blam! That newsstand, boom! That port-a-potty, splat!

Leo

And that's why you're not in charge of the weapons. Now get back to your station and tell me which way to go.

Mikey

Hmm... okay. Uh, you should turn right. [Leo turns right] ...three blocks ago.

Raph

Let's trash the place.

Leo

Hold on, Raph. This is a recon mission. We go in there, find out what the Kraang are up to, and then we trash the place.

Raph

Fine. Wake me when we get to the trashing part.

Raph

I can't believe Mikey actually came through.

Leo

I can't believe he fired the Shellraiser cannon inside the lair.

Mikey

I told you you should let me shoot it more often. [eats some pizza and burps; to Donnie] Pizza me.

Donnie

No, I'm not gonna "pizza you".

Mikey

I guess you're right. It's not like I did something incredibly brave and saved your life.

Leo

You did save our lives. But you also used my favorite comic book as TOILET PAPER!

Mikey

Yeah, but I only did it so you'd chase me.

Leo

Well, it worked! [starts chasing Mikey]

Mikey

WAIT! STOP!

Leo

MIKEY!

Mikey

I'M A HERO!

Donnie

What the heck was that?

Raph

I was just having some fun. You know how much Mikey loves the Donnie puppet.

Donnie

Dude, April was watching.

Raph

I'm pretty sure she liked it... too. Wait. You still think you have a shot with her?

Donnie

Well... er, I mean-

Raph

Wow. That's adorable and sad. It's "sadorable". Look, if you wanna impress April, better leave me out of it.

Leo

Why would Donnie try to rescue April's dad by himself?

Raph

Maybe because I told him he has no shot with April?

Leo

What? Why would you say that?

Raph

Because he has no shot with April!

Leo

Well, yeah, but you don't tell him that!

Mikey

The heart's a soft muscle, man. A soft muscle. Squish.

Karai

Hey, there, Princess. Miss me?

April

Yeah, actually. Last time I saw you, I forgot to give you this! [kicks Karai in the stomach]

Karai

You've done well. Now take the message to Splinter.

April

Dad, what are you doing?! Dad!? You brainwashed him!

Karai

I know. Pretty cool, right?

Leo

What? There's a force field? [To Donnie] Why didn't you tell me?!

Donnie

[Sarcastically] Well, because I wanted us to fail. [Beat] OBVIOUSLY I DIDN'T KNOW!!!

Shredder

Hamato Yoshi, so glad you could accept my invitation.

Splinter

What have you done with April!?

Shredder

Now that you are here, Miss O'Neil is no longer any use to me. I gave her to my new friends- the Kraang.

Splinter

[horrified] You fool! Do you have any idea what you've done!?

Shredder

[strikes Splinter from behind] Yes. I took your family away and I now I can put an end to you once and for all.

Shredder

[dumbfounded] What? A rat?! [chuckles mockingly] I see you are as hideous as those turtles that surround you. How fitting. You're a rat who has been caught in my trap.

Splinter

Look closely at this face, Shredder.... [angrily] For it is the last thing youll ever see!

Splinter

[to Shredder] Oroku Saki, you were once my friend. I thought of you as my brother. 15 years ago, I was a different man. I had everything I could want - a loving wife and a beautiful daughter. And you, my loyal friend, jealousy consumed you. You sought that which was mine! You took everything that I love! Everything! And still you hunt me down! So I fight you now to end this!

April

Sensei, I want to apologize for the way I spoke to you earlier.

Splinter

No need. You spoke what was in your heart. I am just relieved you made it home safely.

Leo

What's wrong, sensei?

Splinter

I learned some things from the Shredder.

Leo

Like what?

Splinter

That is a story for another time, Leonardo. Tonight is for celebration. After all, it's not everyday you save the world from an alien invasion.
