In a small field resembling Acme Acres, a blue-furred boy bunny and a pink-furred girl bunny pop out.

BUSTER: "Hiya, toonsters! It's your old pal Buster Bunny!!!"
BABS: "And I'm Babs Bunny!"
BUSTER + BABS: "No relation."
BABS: "Unlike our reboot counterparts." (Shudders.)
BUSTER: "You readers must be asking yourselves why..." (Pauses for a second. Looks over to Babs who shrugs.) "Uh Plucky, that's your cue. Plucky?! PLUCKY?!!! Where is that self-absorbed duck?! This is the part he's supposed to argue with us about who the real star of Tiny Toons was!"
BABS: (Takes out script and looks over it with a small pair of reading glasses.) "I know. Then I'm supposed to point out how this is all meant to be an homage to when Bugs and Daffy introduced Gremlins 2!"

Rachel Green from Friends comes running up short of breath.

RACHEL: "Hey, so sorry I'm late!"
BABS: "Late for what? You're not even in this segment."
RACHEL: "I mean I was supposed to bring Plucky here with me, but he got caught up in this whole thing with Clan McDuck!"
BUSTER + BABS: "Clan McDuck?!"
RACHEL: "Yea, you know, from the DuckTales reboot Disney did a while back."
BUSTER: (Frustrated.) "Well, that's just perfect! This entire bit is totally ruined!!!"

Buster storms off angrily, while Babs and Rachel stand there awkwardly for a minute.

RACHEL: "Oh hey, I watched those old Tiny Toons episodes with my daughter Emma. She loved them! You're her favorite by the way!"
BABS: "Aw, that's so sweet! I'll send over an autograph photo later today. Hey how's Chandler doing? Ever since his actor died he hasn't quite been the same."
RACHEL: "He's hanging in there, though we got a little worried when he briefly took on the form of Colin Quinn."

Rachel and Babs walk off stage, continuing to chat.

AUTHOR'S NOTES: This story takes place about thirty-three years after the events of "The Summer I was Young Again"! Certain portions of this story are written in script form, though most of it is done the normal way. All appearances by characters who have never been used in prior stories will be explained as the story goes on.

    Raphael and Michaelangelo had just parked the Turtle Van in the busy parking lot of the Wal*Mart shopping center. As they were about to enter the store they saw two strange looking furry creatures.
  "Did you just we what I just saw, dude?"
  "A pair of chipmunks dressed like Indiana Jones and Magnum P.I.?"
  "Uh huh."
  "Well, I guess grocery shopping can wait." Raphael remarked with a deep sigh as they headed back to the van. "Man, where are Jeff and Donatello when we need them? I have no idea how to operate the tracking equipment!"
  "Me neither, bro." Mikey replied.
  "Yea, I guessed that. Call them up on the Turtle Comm. Maybe they can-" Before Raphael could finish speaking, his Turtle Comm went off.
  "Looks like they're way ahead of us!"
  "Hey guys, have you run into any strange looking characters on your way to Wal*Mart?" Donatello asked.
  "Uh yea, we might have." Raphael answered. "Have you guys been messing with the Dimension Hopper again?"
  "No of course not, but we think there may have been an accidental dimensional rift." Jeff mentioned.
  "So what do we do about it?" Michaelangelo asked.
  "Try to catch whoever... or whatever you saw there at the shopping center and bring them back to the house pronto!" Donatello ordered, before finishing off with a friendly "Please."
  "Well, you heard him, Mikey! Lets buckle up and catch those two little critters!"
  "Uh dude, I think they might be in the store." Michaelangelo mentioned as he pointed through the windshield to see several panicked shoppers exiting Wal*Mart and hurrying to their vehicles.
    Raphael and Michaelangelo shrugged as they vacated the Turtle Van yet again. Before locking up, Raphael quickly opened the glove box and grabbed a small remote control shaped device.
  "Like, what's that for?"
  "I don't wanna spoil the surprise. Come on!"
    Once they made it inside the building, they tried to figure out where they might possibly find the dimensionally displaced cartoon characters. "Something tells me we need to check the snack food section." Mikey stated.
  "Of course we do." Raphael remarked sarcastically as they headed for the snack section.
    Sure enough they found the two animated chipmunks scarfing on a ripped up package of Nutter Butters. "Okay, you two. The fun time's over!" Mikey said in a stern voice as his shadow loomed over them. "Hey wait a minute. Aren't you-"
  The furry little pair dropped their cookies and headed down the aisle as Michaelangelo gave chase.
    Raphael was several aisles ahead and had his device ready. "I sure hope this works." he said as he pressed the button and a bright blue beam emitted and zapped the two chipmunks, causing them both to stop still in their tracks.
  "Whoa, dude! Awesome shot!"
  "Yea. I'm glad Donatello keeps one of these spare paralyzing ray generators for just such an occasion. They'll revive in about 30 minutes, so we better get them to the van quick."
  "Right." Michaelangelo said as he picked up the two animals. "By the way I think I know who they are. They're-"
  "Chip and Dale from Chip n' Dale Rescue Rangers?"
  "Uh, Yea. Though for some crazy reason they're acting how they used to in those old Donald Duck cartoons from that old video cassette Jeff used to enjoy!"
    Once the two turtles were back outside they came across yet another strange looking figure, this time a yellow skinned 8 year-old girl dressed like a hippy.
  "MEAT IS MURDER! GO VEGETARIAN!!! Hey wait a minute. Where's Apu? This isn't the Qu-" before she could finish her sentence, Lisa Simpson was given a zap of the paralyzing ray.
  "Was really necessary, dude?" Michaelangelo said.
  "Well, I didn't want to take any chances this time. Somebody hears a little girl screaming in terror, we'll be the first suspects." Raphael said as he picked her up.
  "For sure. Hey, you think she's the same Lisa from that Simpsons reality we went to before?"
  "Hard to tell the way she's dressed. Lets get back home before anything else bizarre happens."
  One quick drive later, they were back at 2580 where the rest of their clan was waiting for them.
  "Boy, that trip sure turned out to be a bust!"
  "Don't sweat it, Michaelangelo. We can always go out again!" Jeff said. "Still, I was really looking forward to having a scrambled egg and bacon pizza for lunch! Then again, those do make for a lot of calories."
  "It must be a nightmare having both Donatello's common sense and Michaelangelo's appetite!" Raphael remarked.
  "The funny part is I feel like I'm naturally more of a hot-headed wise-ass like you!"
  Just then April showed up accompanied by Bebop and a very smelly Rocksteady. "Hey fellas, the boys here could really use a shower."
  "Ew! What the heck have you dudes been up to?"
  "Oh, we was just hanging out at that bridge down near Fischer's Park, when Rocksteady fell into a mudslide." Bebop explained.
  "Could one of youse hose me down please? I would really appreciate it."
  "Say no more, guys." Jeff said as he joined the two mutants outside. "Lucky for you two, I have no sense of smell!"
  "So what brings you to visit, April?" Raphael asked.
  "Well, I have some pretty interesting news to tell you. See Vernon and I have been-" before she could finish, Donatello came running up from the basement.
  "Hey guys, I could really use your help right now! It's urgent! Oh, hi April."
  April waved as she and the other Turtles headed downstairs.
  Meanwhile in the front yard, Jeff had just finished spraying down all the gunk Rocksteady was covered in. "There we go."
  "Thank you, Jeffrey."
  "Uh yea. Do you think the guys would let us stay around for lunch?"
  "I don't see why not. Though given Raphael and Michaelangelo's grocery run had to be put on hold, we might have to order Door Dash or something. How do you guys feel about Popeye's Chicken?"
  Bebop and Rocksteady's eyes lit up and they nodded in excitement.
    "Okay then, just sit tight. I'll go check in with the Toitles- uh, Turtles!!" Jeff headed into the basement just as he caught Donatello explaining the situation to April and the other Turtles.
  "Oh Jeff, thank goodness you're back. I was just explaining how we've got a little dimension hopping to do."
  "Okay, well, I just promised Bebop and Rocksteady I'd order them some Popeye's Chicken for lunch. I guess I can stay behind and keep an eye on things while keeping them entertained."
  "I dunno, Jeff. You know how I feel about leaving those two alone here at the house. Remember what happened last Thanksgiving?" Leonardo said.
  "For sure, dude. Master Splinter says the dining room still wreaks of Stove Top stuffing and appe pie!" Mikey mentioned.
  "Look, I promise to keep an eye on them and make sure that they behave themselves. By the way, how long do you guys think you'll be gone?" Jeff asked.
  "Oh we shouldn't be more than about 6 hours. Our first pit stop is the Nickelodeon-2012 reality." Donatello answered.
  "Why, so you can chat with that nerdy gap-toothed version of you who happens to sound just like me?" Raphael commented.
  "Uh no, because the last time something major like this happened, it originated from their world."
  "Oh right, Kraang Sub-Prime was in cahoots with Casey Jones. That was one heck of a twist ending, wasn't it?" Michaelangelo mentioned with a chuckle.
  "This is no time for recapping our previous adventures! We've got ourselves a mission!" Leo stated. "Turtle Power!!!" he shouted as he ran up the stairs.
  "What's got him so fired up?" April asked.
  "Mid-life crisis I'm assuming!" Raphael answered. "Oh hey Jeff, if Mona Lisa calls, tell her that I'm sorry to have missed her and-"
    "Say no more, Raphael. Besides, knowing the crappy cell phone service at my cousin's cabin in Colorado, she and Trib won't even be able to contact us until their flight home later this week! Just be careful."

Nickelodeon CGI TMNT Earth (Dimension F); New York City, NY - April 5TH, 2025

Lisa Simpson slowly comes to her senses.

MICHAELANGELO: "Hey look who's up!"
APRIL: "Don't frighten her, Michaelangelo! Listen, don't be worried. You're perfectly safe here."
LISA: "Who-who are you?"
APRIL: "April O'Neil, former reporter for Channel 6 News. These are my close friends the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles."

Lisa sits up and gets back to her feet as she sees the four green faces grinning at her.

LISA: "I see. Well, then. This has been-" (Screams out loud and attempts to escape from the van, but is pulled aside from Leonardo.)

LEONARDO: "Look, I know this is very scary, but I promise we mean you no harm. Someone... or something has been messing with the dimensional fabric and opened a warp that brought you and these two squirrels to our world."
CHIP: "We're not squirrels, you giant turtle!"
DALE: "Yea, we're chipmunks obviously."
LEONARDO: "Oh, sorry. Look, we promise to get all of you back where you belong. But in the meantime, you just have to trust us."
CHIP: "I only hope we aren't stuck with you guys too long."
DALE: "Yea, Gadget, Zipper and Monty must be worried sick!"
LISA: "I bet my bratty brother could care less that I've gone missing."
MICHAELANGELO: "Oh don't say that. Deep down, Bart loves you."
LISA: "Wait, how did you know his name?"
DONATELLO: "We've uh, been to your world before, though it might not have been the exact same reality."
LISA: "You mean like the multi-verse?"
MICHAELANGELO: "For sure. In fact we're about to drop in on our alternate selves from this dimension we're currently in!"
LEONARDO: "I only hope we didn't show up at a bad time."

Suddenly the road that they're driving down is engulfed by a rush of sea water. Within seconds the streets are flooded by about 3 feet and rising. Raphael grips the steering wheel tightly and sneers at Leonardo.

RAPHAEL: (Gritting his teeth.) "Oh, you just had to say that!"

Meanwhile in the sewers, Nickelodeon Raphael is trying to have a little down time reading one of his favorite books, but Nickelodeon Michelangelo won't stop bothering him.

NICK MIKEY: (Pokes Nickelodeon Raphael with each word he says.) "Whatcha reading, buddy?"
NICK RAPH: "A story."
NICK MIKEY: (Continues poking.) "Yea, what kinda story?"
NICK RAPH: "It's about these two brothers who love each other very much...
NICK MIKEY: "Aw, that sounds nice."
NICK RAPH: "Yep, even though one of them is an OBNOXIOUS LITTLE TWERP!!!"

Nickelodeon Raphael smacks Nickelodeon Michelangelo over the head with the book before storming off and heading into the dojo.

NICK RAPH: "Yo Leo, wanna do some sparring?"
NICK LEO: (Sighs.) "Not right now, thanks."
NICK RAPH: "Something bothering you?"
NICK LEO: "Well, I haven't heard much from Karai as of late. I'm just a little worried about her. She's been in Japan for over a month now."
NICK RAPH: "I know the feeling. Ever since Mona Lisa was summoned back to her home planet, she's all I can think about."

Nickelodeon Donatello and Nickeldeon Michelangelo come running into the dojo.

NICK DON: "Hey guys, come back out to the living room. There's something happening on the news!"

Nickelodeon Leonardo and Nickelodeon Raphael follow their brothers to the living room where news anchor Carlos Chiang O'Brien Gambe is reporting.

CARLOS CHAING O'BRIEN GAMBE: "This is Carlos Chiang O'Brien *TONGUE CLICK* Gambe on the scene here as water from the seaport is somehow making its way through Manhattan, flooding our streets with salt water. Already we're up to about 4 and a half, no five feet. I'm really wishing I had put on a scuba suit for this. No word yet from Agent Bishop, head of the Earth Protection Force, but hopefully they'll get to the bottom of this!"

Nickelodeon Michelangelo notices the Jephaelverse TMNT in their Turtle Van floating right behind the long-winded reporter.

NICK MIKEY: (Gasps.) "Dudes, did you just see that?"
NICK LEO: "It's our counterparts from that Jeff guy's world."
NICK RAPH: "What the heck are they doing back here?"
NICK DON: "There's only one way to find out. Lets go find Leatherhead. He should be able to help us in all this."
NICK MIKEY: "All right!!!"


The Nickelodeon Turtles ride their skateboards and make their way through the sewers until they reach Leatherhead's lair. They are horrified to see him bound in chains.

NICK MIKEY: (Begins to sob.) "Oh no, Leatherhead, buddy! Who did this to you?"
LEATHERHEAD: "I do not know, my friend. Please, help me out of these!"

Nick Michelangelo attempts to undo the chains with his weapon, but no luck.

NICK DON: "Uh Mikey, I think it's a combination lock."
NICK RAPH: "So what do we do?"
NICK MIKEY: "Yea, I don't want to leave him like this!"
NICK LEO: "Mikey and I can stay here and watch over Leatherhead. Raph, you go check up on the Slash and the rest of the Mutanimals! Donnie, go get April at her apartment and then take her to find our counterparts!"

Back on the street, Donatello has managed to convert the Turtle Van to floatation mode.


RAPHAEL: "Boy, did we pick a heck of a time to visit this dimension!"
LEONARDO: "Is there any chance the dimensional rift is causing this?"
DONATELLO: "I don't think so. According to my scanners, the rifts that brought, Lisa, Chip and Dale to our world were pretty small, and I'm not picking up any dimensional activity here besides our arrival."
MICHAELANGELO: "Well, at lease we know it isn't our fault."
APRIL: "It's a good thing Vernon didn't come along. Poor guy gets seasick!" (Chuckles.)
RAPHAEL: "Poor guy? Um, what were you about to tell us before we got all wrapped up in this little adventure?"

April begins to get nervous, but before she has the chance to tell the Turtles her surprise, the Turtle Van gets an unexpected visitor on the roof.

NICKELODEON APRIL: "Hey, what brings you guys here?"
LEONARDO: "It's April!"
APRIL: "Um, excuse me?"
LEONARDO: "I mean this world's April. It's your counterpart!"
APRIL: "Oh. Um, how come she looks so young?"
LISA: "Hey, some days I feel like I've been an 8 year old for decades!"

Donatello activates the side door to the van and lets Nickelodeon April in.

NICKELODEON APRIL: "Thanks. My dad and I noticed you from the roof a few blocks back, so I decided to follow you."

Nickelodeon Donatello shows up, having been running along the same rooftops.

NICKELODEON DON: "April! Dimension J Turtles! I am so glad you guys ran into each other first!"
DONATELLO: "Uh yea, thanks. So um, what exactly is going on here?"
NICK DON: "We have no idea. We saw you guys drifting by on the news so we decided to head out and investigate, but we wanted to round up our friend Leatherhead, and we found him bound in chains. Raphael's on his way to check up on the rest of the Mutanimals at their headquarters!"
LEONARDO: "Then we might as well head over there ourselves."

That same moment Nickelodeon Raph arrivers at Mutanimals Headquarters.

NICK RAPH: "Um, hello? Slash, Dr. Rockwell? Anybody- huh?! No way!!!"

Nickelodeon Raph is shocked to see a de-mutated Spike, Ivan Steranko and Anton Zeck.

ANTON ZECK: "Sup, turtle boy?"
IVAN STERANKO: "Dah, velcome."
NICK RAPH: "Bebop and Rocksteady? You-you're human again."
ANTON ZECK: "So's your uh little turtle pal here." (Hands Nickelodeon Raph his former pet, turned mutant, now restored to ordinary pet again.)
NICK RAPH: "Aw Spike - I-I mean Slash - I mean..." (Holds Spike close.) "Who did this?"
IVAN STERANKO: "We have no idea, Comrade Raphael. One minute we are aiding Slash in going over EPF log review, then room goes dark and all three of us are doused in retro-mutagen."
NICK RAPH: "This is getting more and more suspicious. Donnie's the only person I know who can even create retro-mutagen!"

Just then Nickelodeon Donatello and Nickelodeon April arrive along with the Dimension J Turtles and April.

IVAN STERANKO: "Look, Zeck. It's the Turtles from that other world."
ANTON ZECK: "Oh yea, when we were recruited by that other Shredder and Krang."
NICK RAPH: "Actually, these guys are from a different reality, though have a lot in common with the ones you remember."
IVAN STERANKO: "I see."
ANTON ZECK: "Freaky!"
NICK DON: "Raph, what's going on here? How did... is that Slash?"
NICK RAPH: "Not anymore. He's back to being good old Spike."
NICK DON: "Well, we can always re-mutate him."
NICK RAPH: "We should really leave it up to him. In the mean time something really sketchy is going on here. Is there anyone you can think of who could've snagged the formula for retro-mutagen?"
NICK DON: "There's only two people I've shared it with; Dr. Rockwell and Agent Bishop! But first thing's first. We'd better get back to Leatherhead's lair and see if we can break him out of those chains!"
APRIL: "Did that Donatello just say we're going to see Leatherhead?"
MICHAELANGELO: "Relax, dudette! This is an alternate reality. Those we knew as foes in our world are friends in other worlds!"
NICK RAPH: (Turns to Zeck and Steranko.) "You two stay put incase Dr. Rockwell shows up, okay?"
ANTON ZECK: "No prob, dawg."
IVAN STERANKO: (Nods.)

Back at Leatherhead's lair, Nickelodeon Michelangelo is still desperately trying to free his huge crocodile friend.

LEATHERHEAD: (Sigh.) "It is of no use, my friend. Please do not tire yourself on my behalf. I am just glad to see you here."

Nickelodeon Mikey and Leatherhead share a warm hug, which makes Nickelodeon Leonardo a little teary eyed. He then musters up all his strength and attempts to slice at the chains when Nickelodeon Donatello, Nickelodeon Raphael and Nickelodeon April show up accompanied by the Dimension J TMNT and their April. Donatello and Nickelodeon Donatello examine the lock together, while Nickelodeon Raphael shows Nickelodeon Leonardo what became of Slash, now reverted to Spike.

NICK RAPH: "Somebody's been messing with retro-mutagen, and according to Donnie there are two suspects!"
DONATELLO: "I dunno what to do about this lock!"

April O' Neil kneels down next to Donatello and looks at the lock.

APRIL: "You boys are so clueless sometimes."

April proceeds to take a hair-pin from her purse, jams it into the lock, twists it back and forth until the lock becomes undone.

LEATHERHEAD: "I am free! Thank you, young lady!"
APRIL: "Oh don't mention it."

NICK LEO: "We better scope out the E.P.F."
LEONARDO: "We're coming too, Leo. We think whoever's messing with your city and friends is also sending trouble our way!"
RAPHAEL: "Hold it, hold on a second! If these guys have retro-mutagen, could they use it to turn all of us back into ordinary turtles?"
MICHAELANGELO: "Whoa dude, you've got a point there!"
NICK DON: "Not to worry. I've designed some special suits that can protect us."

As the sun begins to set, all eight Ninja Turtles are decked out in color coded hazmat suits, making their way to into the Earth Protection Force Headquarters and begin scaling the walls.

NICK RAPH: "Are you sure these are going to keep us safe?"
NICK DON: "I made them out of a highly advanced impenetrable poly-micro-fiber so they won't rip if we end up going into combat."
NICK LEO: "We'll take your word on it."
NICK MIKEY: (Looks down at the Dimension J TMNT who are just a few feet below them.) "Hey are you J-Turtles okay."
MICHAELANGELO: "We're all good, homey!"
RAPHAEL: "Yea, lets get this over with. I wanna get home so I can check in with the Mrs."
NICK MIKEY: "Oh, that's cool. I didn't know you were married!"
NICK RAPH: "He's married to their version of Mona Lisa. They even showed us the wedding photo."
NICK DON: (Smirks.) "Maybe I should go their with our April and pop the question."

Nickelodeon Leo and Nickelodeon Raphael both give Nickelodeon Donatello a stern look, while Nickelodeon Michelangelo grins enthusiastically. Eventually the group makes it into the building and take the elevator to the top floor where they find Agent Bishop's office.

NICK LEO: "This is it, gang. This is the moment of truth and-"
NICK RAPH: "Oh, will you just open the door?!"

Nickelodeon Leonardo sighs as he slices off the doorknob and they make their way in. Immediately they find Agent Bishop's exo-skeleton, broken and smashed to pieces, though no sign of Bishop himself in his natural Utrom form. They do however find Dr. Rockwell bound and gagged.

Nickelodeon Donatello rips the duct tape off Dr. Rockwell's mouth.

DR. TYLER ROCKWELL: "Did you have to pull it off so hard like that?!"
NICK DON: "Sorry, Doc."
NICK MIKEY: "Who did this to you?"

Nickelodeon Michelangelo unties Dr. Rockwell as he speaks with the other Nickelodeon TMNT.

DR. TYLER ROCKWELL: "You're not going to believe this, but Pigeon Pete is behind all of this!"
NICK LEO + NICK DON: "What?!"
NICK RAPH: "You gotta be pulling our legs!"
DR. TYLER ROCKWELL: "It's no joke, Raphael. Pigeon Pete was always the wild card of our little rag-tag group, but there turned out to be a dark side to him under that silly exterior. We must-"

Dr. Rockwell goes silent as his eyes catch the Dimension J TMNT.

DR. TYLER ROCKWELL: "Um... have you been up to some sort of cloning experiments, Donatello?"
NICK LEO: "We'll explain later, Doctor Rockwell!"
NICK RAPH: "Hey I just had an idea. If Rockwell had no knowledge of our counterparts..."
NICK DON: "Then Pigeon Pete most likely doesn't either!"
NICK MIKEY: "Yea! So uh, do we go and tell him?"

Nickelodeon Leonardo, Nickelodeon Donatello and Nickelodeon Raphael all face-palm at their goofy little brother.

RAPHAEL: "Hah, their Mikey's even dumber than ours!"
MICHAELANGELO: "Thanks a lump, Raphael."

Moments later in the main chamber of Earth Protection Force Headquarters, Pigeon Pete gloats over his master plan as he stands over a catwalk stretching across the large darkened room.

PIGEON PETE: "It won't be long now! Before long I'll have my revenge. They'll all be sorry for not taking me more seriously!" (Laughs maniacally, then clucks.)
NICK MIKEY: (in a bad Ricky Ricardo impression) "Petey, you've got some 'splaining to do!"'
PIGEON PETE: "So, you finally showed yourselves. It's about damn time. It wasn't easy to implement my master plan."
NICK LEO: "What is your master plan?"
PIGEON PETE: "Your demise of course! I knew I had to take down my former team-mates first. After stealing Rockwell's copies of Donatello's notes for the retro-mutagen, I managed to make enough for 3 doses, which were all intended for Slash, Leatherhead and Rockwell. Imagine my dismay when I learned only Slash and those two idiots who used to work for Shredder were there!"
NICK DON: "That explains pretty much everything except the flood."
PIGEON PETE: "The flood? Oh, that was just a coincidence. If I had known that was going to happen I would've waited until next week to do all of this!"
NICK RAPH: "Uh guys, if he says he's got no more retro-mutagen on hand, does that mean we can take off these sweaty jumpsuits now?"
NICK LEO: "Hold that thought. It could be a trap!"
NICK RAPH: "Come on, it's Pigeon Pete!"

Nickelodeon Raphael removes his hazmat suit and jumps at Pete, only to run head first into an invisible force-field.

PIGEON PETE: "Hah! You always were the cocky one, Raphael. True I no longer have anymore retro-mutagen, but Leonardo is correct about all of this being a trap!"

Pigeon Pete activates the lights in the room, revealing a huge oven and a large bowl full of dough. All four of the Nickelodeon Turtles start busting out in laughter.

NICK LEO: "Is-is that sourdough batter? Were you going to make bread out of us?"
NICK DON: "Oh wow, of all the stupid evil schemes we've seen..."
NICK MIKEY: "This one takes the cake."

Pigeon Pete angrily lunges at the Nickelodeon Turtles, only to be zapped by a blue beam and frozen in his tracks. The Dimension J Turtles emerge from the other side

RAPHAEL: "Donatello's patented paralyzing ray generator!"
MICHAELANGELO: "Never leave home without it, dudes!"

A couple of hours later, Dr. Rockwell is reunited with Leatherhead in the lair.

NICK DON: "So according to the news report, that flood was just a freak accident caused by a burst pipeline near the docks."
LEONARDO: "It just goes to show it's best to never jump to conclusions. Isn't that right, Donatello?"
DONATELLO: "Okay, so I made a miscalculation! Coming here was a big waste of time!"
APRIL: "I wouldn't say that. It's kinda like we were meant to come here to help out these guys!"
MICHAELANGELO: "For sure."
NICK LEO: "So what do we do about Slash, er Spike?"

Nickelodeon Raphael hands Spike/Slash to April who reads the small pet turtle's mind.

NICK APRIL: "Spike says he's happier this way. Being a giant scary looking mutant was always too much stress on his heart."

Nickelodeon Raphael takes Spike and sits him next to Chompy Picasso.

NICK RAPH: "Good to have you back, old friend."
LEONARDO: "Well, I guess we might as well head back to Harleysville in our world."
DONATELLO: "Hold that thought, Leonardo. I just got a text from Jeffrey. It says while we were here, another rift opened in Smallville."
MICHAELANGELO: "So like what're we waiting for, dudes? Lets go! So long, guys!"

April and her Nickelodeon counterpart shake hands.

NICK APRIL: "It was nice meeting you."
APRIL: "Likewise. Keep looking after your friends."
NICK APRIL: "Same to you. Oh and" (Whispers.) "I didn't want to pry, but I could sense from your emotions that you're thinking of a special someone. You should really tell them as soon as possible."
APRIL: (Slightly freaked out) "Oh uh, thanks."

Nickelodeon April, Leatherhead and the Nickelodeon TMNT wave one last time to their visitors from Dimension J, while Nickelodeon Michelangelo goes to his room and lies down in his bed.

NICK MIKEY: "I need a nap after all of this craziness, Ice Cream Kitty!"
ICE CREAM KITTY: "Meow!"

Smallville Earth (Elseworld 167); Smallville, KS - April 5TH, 2025

    As the sun started to set over Smallville, Kansas, a worn out Superman landed softly on the front yard of his adoptive parents' farm where he had been raised. "Lois, I'm home! I stopped by your dad's office and picked up that old mixed tape you were telling me about. I thought maybe we could listen to it!"
  "Uh, huh-huh. In here, darling." a strange male voice responded.
  "Yea, lets get down to business. Bo-oi-oing, eh heh heh!" a much more nasally voice added.
  "Lois, are you watching MTV again?" Clark said as he walked into the living room. "It sounds like you had on one of those bad cartoons I was never allowed to..."
  Clark was in shock to see two animated teenagers munching on nachos and watching television.
  "Whoa! Check it out, Beavis! It's Superman!"
  "Oh yea yea. Wait, didn't he get his neck snapped after he fell off a horse?"
  "No, butt-munch, that was the '70s Superman! This is like that 90s version that came out when we were in high school!"
  Just then Clark's super hearing picked up the Turtle Van arriving in the driveway. "Stay right there." he said before speeding off.
  "Uh, okay." said Butt-head as he and Beavis continued snacking on nachos and watching television. "This place is cool!"
  "Yea, real homey, Homey!" Beavis said with a giggle.
  Once the Turtle Van was parked, the Turtles and April exited, along with their guests Lisa Simpson, Chip and Dale.
  "Hey Supes, long time no see!" Michaelangelo said as he high fived Clark.
  "I see you guys are up to your usual dimension hopping shenanigans."
  "Well, when you dabble in inter-dimensional travel, you have to learn to be ready for anything!" Donatello remarked.
  "Yea well, wait until you see who I've got crashing in my living room."
    Just as soon as they were all about to go back into the Kent house, Lois Lane came storming out of the house in a fluffy purple robe. "Smallville, why are there two stoner boys in the living room raiding the fridge and watching television while I'm upstairs trying to surprise you with a night of romance starting with a bubble bath?!"
  Clark gestured towards the unexpected guests in the driveway.
  Embarrassed, Lois ran back into the house, slamming the front door behind her.
  "Married life, am I right?" Raphael cracked.
  "Tell me about it."
  Once the Ninja Turtles and company were all in the house, they were dumbfounded to see the two unkempt specimens that had been transported to Smallville.
  "Hey, how's it going?" Beavis said waving to the Turtles.
  "Uh, are you guys like... going to a costume party?" Butt-head asked. "You look like those Ninja Turtle guys!"
  "That's because we are the Ninja Turtles!" Leonardo stated.
  "Whoa, cool!" Butt-head said, still laughing.
  "Yea, heh heh. Want some pizza flavored nachos?"
  "Oh don't mind if I-" Before Michaelangelo could reach for the bag Beavis was offering, Raphael and April both gave him a dirty look. "On second thought, I'm not too hungry."
  "So like, uh, who are those people in all these photos you've got around here?" Butt-head asked.
  "Yea yea. Like, they're you and that older couple. Like a blonde haired farmer and his hot red-head wife."
  "That would be my adoptive parents."
  "Whoa! Hey wait a minute. I thought that Superman's parents were like... supposed to be like old." Butt-head mentioned.
  "Boy, Otto would be right at home with these two." Lisa commented.
    Chip and Dale were watching from their viewpoint atop April's shoulder, but the latter of the two chipmunks caught a whiff of peanuts and couldn't contain himself as he attempted a nose dive right into the open can right near Butt-head's feet.
  "Whoa! I think you've got like a rodent infestation."
  "Yea yea. Better get the Ghostbusters. Who ya gonna call?"
  Annoyed by his stupid friend, Butt-head smacked Beavis across the head. "Dumb-ass!"
  "Fart-knocker!" Beavis uttered as he kicked Butt-head right in the junk, causing his face to go bright red.
    "Okay, I can't take anymore of this! I'm zapping them!" Raphael said as he took out the paralyzing ray generator and attempted to zap Beavis and Butt-head, but the blue beam wouldn't emit. "Aw come on, don't tell me this thing's shorting out on me!"
  "Maybe the battery's dead. I mean you've been playing with it an awful lot this aftern-" Michaelangelo was cut off mid-sentence when a beam managed to zap him just as Raphael had the device aimed at him.
  "Whoops! Eh heh. Sorry, Mike. Guess there was just enough left for one zap." Raphael said as he handed the faulty device to Donatello.
  "So can we just send everybody back to where they belong now or what?" Leonardo asked.
    "Not quite. Soon as we arrived here, the scanner picked up a secondary dimensional rift that opened around the same time as the rift that brought these two idiots here to the Kent Farm! Clark have you been to the Kawatche Caves recently?"
  "Not in years. Ever since I got the fortress running, I really have no need for the caves, so I stripped it of all Kryptonian technology."
  "Uh, okay." Butt-head said, still woozy from the kick to the groin from earlier.
  "Yea, this Superman kinda sucks. When's he gonna like fight Lex Luthor or something? Or better yet, kick those Turtles' asses! That would rule!!!" Beavis added.
  "Okay, that's it. You guys are about to get it!"
  "Raphael, calm down!" Leonardo said sternly. "Look, it's obvious whoever else showed up is at the caves, right? So we'd better head down there quick! April, stay here and keep an eye on Michaelangelo and these two ding-a-lings!"
  Lisa Simpson took Chip from April and dug Dale out of the peanut bowl and set them down on the end table before going along with the Turtles in the Turtle Van.
    About 20 minutes later they were at the Kawatche Caves. Leonardo and Raphael went in to scope out the main cavern.
  "Why aren't you going along with them?" Lisa asked Donatello.
  "To be honest, the last time I was here I got kidnapped, so I'm a little anxious to set foot around this particular part of town."
    "Leonardo, just what the heck does Donatello expect us to find in here?!"
  "Keep it down, Raphael." Leo whispered. "There's something very strange about this place."
  "Well, considering it was once an alien out-post that was worshipped by Native Americans who thought Clark's Kryptonian ancestors were deities, than yea, you could say that it gives off that kind of vibe!!!"
  "Will you cool it?! I think I'm getting a reading!" Leonardo pointed the scanner into a very dark corner of the cave when out came a pair of glowing eyes.
  "Uh Leo?"
  "Don't get freaked out, Raphael!" Leonardo said in a shaky voice.
  The bizarre creature let out a strange sound, which caused both Turtles to run screaming out of the cave and back to the Turtle Van, startling both Donatello and Lisa.
  "What did you guys find?" Donatello asked.
  "Something definitely not of this Earth!!!" Raphael said in fear just as the mysterious figure stepped out of the cave.
  "It's just a deer!" Lisa exclaimed.
  Leonardo and Raphael both sighed in relief.
    "Let me see what that scanner read in there." Donatello said as Leonardo handed it to him. "The scanner wasn't picking up on the deer! There's some odd looking figure skulking around just near the entrance the deer chased you through."
  "I think I see him!" Lisa said as she got out of the van.
  "Huh, brave kid." Raphael remarked.
  "A lot braver than you, ya big chicken!" Leonardo said with a laugh as he got back into the van.
  It wasn't more than a minute before Lisa came back from the entrance of the cave accompanied by a 5 foot tall duck in a purple mask and cape, and a gray hat.
  "Well, I'll be damned. Something tells me Jeff's going to be kicking himself for staying behind with Bebop and Rocksteady instead of coming along with us!" Raphael said as he caught sight of a familiar looking cartoon duck in a snappy super hero costume.
    "Darkwing Duck at your service!" the flashy dressed mallard introduced himself. "I take it you reptilian aliens beamed me to your planet because you're in need of my legendary heroics to help thwart a dastardly felonious felon who has plagued your world! What nefarious ne'er-do-well dares compromise the cosmos in this edge of the universe?"
    Shortly after the group was back at the Kent Farm. Michaelangelo was now back to normal as the effects of the paralyzing ray had worn off, so he and Clark were now sitting side by side on the sofa attempting to keep Beavis and Butt-head separated as they watched some television.
  "Uh, so like... is that pizza your girlfriend ordered gonna get here soon or what?"
  "Heh yea, I'm hungry for some za!"
  "I'm starting to wish we had let your brother go ahead and knock these two idiots out." Clark commented to Mikey just as the front door opened and in walked Donatello and Lisa Simpson, followed by Leonardo and Raphael.
  "Come on in. Don't be shy." Donatello said to Darkwing who had been sulking the whole way back to the Kent Farm.
  "Can't believe I'm here purely by accident! What idiot just randomly..."
  "Whoa cool! You guys found one of me and Jeff's favorite Disney Afternoon characters! He's sure gonna be sorry he stayed behind with Bebop and Rocksteady."
  "I know, I said that earlier." Raphael replied. "Sorry again about what happened with the paralyzing ray before we left."
  "Oh, don't sweat it, bro. That zap was kinda weak, so it only lasted like 10 minutes or so. Anyway, Lois ordered us some pizzas, so we might as well hang out here for a bit."
  "I'm afraid we don't have the time for that, Michaelangelo. We've gotta get to Titans Tower!" Leonardo said.
  "I guess that means more for me and Lois." Clark said with a grin.
  "Speak for yourself, Smallville!" Lois remarked as she and April entered from the kitchen. "It was nice getting to finally meet you, Miss O'Neil!"
  "Likewise, Miss Lane! We'll have to do this again soon!"
  The two reporters shook hands as April rejoined the Turtles.
  "Hey, uh where are Chip and Dale?" Leonardo asked.
  "I thought they went with you guys to the caves." April replied.
  "No, we only took Lisa Simpson along." Donatello exclaimed.
  Just then there was a clanging coming from the kitchen. Clark got up and went into the kitchen. He quickly came out holding the two chipmunks who had apparently been snacking on a jar of peanut butter.
  "Ew! Hey, wait a minute! Don't I know those two rodents somehow?!" Darkwing blurted.
  "Um, yea... you could say that." Raphael remarked.
  "There's definitely a strong possibility they're both from the same cluster of realities, just as this dimension and the Titans' world come from the DC multiverse." Donatello figured. "Speaking of which, we'd better get going."
  "Good seeing you guys." Clark said as he shook hands with each of the Turtles.
  "Uh so like, what's going on?" Butt-head asked.
  "Yea, where's that pizza?! Dammit! I'm hungry!" Beavis chimed in.
  "We'll order you dudes some Dominos, okay?!" Michaelangelo said as he and Raphael each grabbed one of them and escorted them to the Turtle Van.
  Once their guests were all gone, Lois and Clark resumed their romantic night in and began to slow dance to her mix tape, which consisted mostly of David Bowie songs.

Sky Highway (Dimension <Null>)

    The Turtle Van was now in a rather peculiar looking reality... an endless cluster of highways overlapping each other, going in all sorts of directions.
  "Whoa!" Michaelangelo said in amazement.
  "This doesn't look like Jump City." Leonardo said in a concerned tone.
  "Looks more like Los Angeles, only less traffic backup!" Raphael joked.
  "What's going on?" Chip asked.
  "I'm afraid in my attempt to zero in on Titans Tower, the inter-dimensional surge that was sending our guests out of their worlds somehow caused my Dimension Hopper to go haywire and it randomly sent us to this place." Donatello remarked.
  "So um, how do we get outta here?" Dale asked.
  "Don't ask me" Raphael answered with a chuckled. "Boy you two sure became chatty all of a sudden!"
  "We better figure out a way out of this quick, because we're about to run out of gas!" Leonardo mentioned as he pointed over Donatello's shoulder towards the dash.
  "Aw man, I knew we forgot something important after leaving Wal*Mart!" Raphael remarked.
  Darkwing then poked Leo on the shoulder. "Hey uh, Turtle... guys, those two dopey looking teens, the lady in yellow and that little yellow-skinned hippy girl are... starting to look weird."
    The Turtles looked back in shock to see what the masked mallard was referring to. April O'Neil, Lisa Simpson, Beavis and Butt-head had all started morphing into monstrous versions of themselves.
  "Oh man, this can't be good!" Raphael said.
  Donatello gripped the steering wheel as best he could when he noticed a car full of other weird looking people.
  "Hey Turtles, long time no race!" one of them shouted before the driver burned rubber.
  "Um, did those guys know you?" Darkwing asked.
    "Not us exactly. They must know our counterparts from... from the original Eastman and Laird comics!" Michaelangelo chimed in as he picked up his smart phone. "Thank God Jeff helped me digitize our comic book collection."
  "So you know where we are, and how we can get outta here?" Raphael asked.
  "Exact-a-mungo! Just give me a minute." Mikey said as he scrolled through his digital collection. "Ah, here we are. Volume 1, issue 30. The Sky Highway story."
  "Cut to the chase, Michaelangelo! The gas meter is getting dangerously close to that E, and our human guests aren't looking too hot!" Leo snapped.
  "Oh quit being a back-seat driver, fearless leader!" Raphael griped.
  "Mellow out, you two. Ah, found the right page. Don, all you gotta do is jerk the wheel over the edge of the road and we'll free-fall through that exit portal."
  "WHAT?!" Darkwing, Chip, Dale and the other Turtles said nervously.
  "Just trust me, dudes! It's now or never. Besides, the longer we stay here, the worse our human amigos are going to become!"
  "Well, if you insist." Donatello said as he gritted his teeth and did as his brother ordered.
  For what felt like a full hour, the Turtle Van plummeted through time and space.
  "This is like the Tower of Terror, only we just keep falling!" Leonardo said gripping his stomach.
  "Well, the good news is, April and the others are turning back to normal." Michaelangelo pointed out.
  "Don't worry, I think the Dimension Hopper is finally working properly. We'll be at Titans Tower before you know it!" Donatello said.
  "Good, because as soon as we get there, I'm going to hurl all over whoever caused this dimensional disturbance in the first place!!!" Raphael shouted just as the Turtle Van vanished in a bright light.
