At one point, Leo manages to make contact with Splinter through meditation, and after the Turtles witness him in a shared vision, they decide to return to New York to find and rescue him. Despite being a member of the Foot Clan, Danny has secretly been taking counsel from Splinter, who shares with him the story of his master Hamato Yoshi's murder by a rival ninja named Oroku Saki.

The fight escalates into the streets above and eventually onto a rooftop, where the Turtles finally face off against Shredder, but prove to be no match for him. Leo eventually scores a hit with his, but is ultimately disarmed and pinned to the ground. Before Shredder can finish Leo off, Splinter appears and challenges him to a fight.

Quotes first lines: Much more than just a series of small, isolated incidents, it's now apparent that an organized criminal element is at work and at the moment, business is good. So good in fact that there appear to be no eyewitnesses to any of these crimes. With complaints ranging from purse snatching to breaking and entering, police switchboards have been swamped with the angry voices of more and more citizens who have fallen prey to the recent surge of crime that continues to plague the city.
I was just a little kid when I first started collecting turtle stuff, Comics, figures, and trade cards, as well as many other things. I remember one day I came home to find that my mother had thrown out every action figure and card I had, as well as most of my comics. She replaced them with a phone and a fish tank.
She said I was getting too old for kid toys, and that I would grow out of them any way. I was about 9. So when the movie was released I was the first one there on the first day it was released to theaters. I collected some of the figures later on, but I never had a collection that was even close to my first. I have almost every cartoon movie made on tape, several copies of all three live action movies, and this one on DVD. I never grew out of the turtles, and I know I never will.
I know all three movies word for word. When every one grows up, a part of them, a big part dies, and we forget what we loved so much as children. Our Imagination dies, and an adult is born. I simply refuse to let my heros go.

While the years pass and the turtles are forgotten, they will forever be a reminder to me of the times I could spend hours on end with nothing but myself and my action figures that came to life right in front of me with nothing more than my imagination.
