Leo, Splinter and others in “Unfinished Business”

There's so much riding on this. What if something goes wrong?

Failure is a possibility all leaders must face, Leonardo. It is something I had to face in Japan during my battle with my old enemy, the Shredder. Years ago, Oroku Saki, as Shredder was called then, had been my friend. But the love of a woman came between us. He could not accept it and his jealously turned outward in a vengeful attack. And although he could not defeat me that day, my world burned and crumbled around me, as the battle took the life of my beloved Tang Shen. And I lost my baby daughter, Miwa.

But that's my point, Sensei. You lost everything.

I lost many things - my family, my home, my name. But I gained many things as well, like the 4 of you.

Don't worry. We can handle this. [Just then, Mikey runs by with a metal pot on his head, screaming. Raph is still chasing him with a wooden spoon.]

[angrily-ish] GET BACK HERE! [Leo and Splinter sigh.]
