The Turtles are back in New York, and the Justice Force are having a recruitment campaign to expand their super team. Leo takes the opportunity to warn the Justice Force about the upcoming threat, but Mikey's distracted by the chance of joining his heroes as the Turtle Titan. Suddenly a familiar face shows up: Nano is back, and a microchip implanted by Stockman is making him violent and destructive.

!! This episode provides examples of

* AnnoyingArrows: Unusually for this trope, they're annoying ''exploding'' arrows.
* AvengersAssemble: Leo approaches the Justice Force for their aid in combating the Tengu Shredder.
* BadBoss: Implied but never gone through with when Bishop begins to sympathize with Ch'Rell for his constant, brutal punishments of the always failing Stockman.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Nano, with Stockman's control chip.
* BreatherEpisode: A brief, upbeat breather in the middle of the ongoing Tengu Shredder arc.
* TheBusCameBack: As this is the first episode to take place outside of the Tribunal's monastery this season, it's full of this.
** Nano returns for the first time in three seasons.
** Bishop and Stockman appear for the first time since "Good Genes, Part II".
** The Justice Force appears for the first time since the third season. In particular, Zippy Lad returns after his last appearance in "Return of the Justice Force".
** Nobody and Raptarr are back as Justice Force members.
* CallBack: Donnie has built the "Turtle Taxi" that he and Adam were discussing back in "[[Recap/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003S5E4MoreworldsThanOne More Worlds Than One]]," and even incorporated some of Adam's ideas.
* ChekhovsGun: Molecule's belt, which shrinks it's user to miniscule size.
* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: Molecule's belt. Could possibly also apply to Gauntlet's gauntlets.
* ClothingDamage: Mikey's new Turtle Titan costume gets wrecked in the fight.
* ContinuityNod:
** Stockman mentions that they've found what may be the last piece of salvageable debris from the Triceraton invasion.
** When Nano escapes, Bishop grimly muses that he's beginning to understand why the Shredder kept mutilating him.
** Nano apologizes to the Turtles for their last two encounters.
* CurbStompBattle: Nano versus the wannabe Justice League recruits.
* DeadpanSnarker: After Stockman's umpteenth experiment gone horribly wrong.
-->'''Bishop''': Dr. Stockman, I'm beginning to understand why your former employer kept relieving you of body parts.
* DidntSeeThatComing: Stockman is quite surprised to find the nano-bugs he experimented on are sentient.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Nano finally gets a family.
* FacePalm: Don, and Zippy Lad.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Thanks to Stockman's new programming, Nano alternates between pleading for help and trying to destroy everything in sight.
* IncredibleShrinkingMan: Molecule's power, thanks to his belt.
* {{Nanomachines}}: Nano, of course.
* OhCrap: Leo and Mikey when they realize they're dealing with Nano.
* PlotRelevantAgeUp: Part of what Stockman did to Nano had the effect of aging his mind up from a toddler to a young adult. He is able to talk coherently and even apologizes to Leo and Mikey for their prior encounters.
* ShoutOut: As befits a SuperheroEpisode, Mikey calls the viewer "[[Creator/StanLee true believer]] during his [[TheTeaser opening narration]].
* SixthRanger: Nano joins the Justice Force full-time, while Mikey joins the Justice Force every third Wednesday of every fourth month. And February 29th. When there is one. It's also noted that Nobody and Raptarr also joined the team recently.
* TheStraightAndArrowPath: Zippy Lad even [[LampshadeHanging mocks Bowcaster]] for it.
* SuperheroEpisode
* SuppressedRage: Gauntlet gets increasingly wound up by Zippy Lad.
* {{Technopath}}: Ananda's ability to communicate with machines lets her know that Nano is not actually ill-intentioned, but is being controlled by a chip on one of his nanobots.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Bowcaster puts up a valiant effort against Nano during his attack and seems pleasant (in a silent way) before that while Gauntlet is a hot-headed {{Jerkass}} quick to attack anything or anyone that comes his way, and Molecule is a DirtyCoward who tries to flee as soon as the fight starts.
* TrickArrow: Of the exploding variety, to be specific. [[AnnoyingArrows Not that they do much good....]]
