--> '''Raph''': But it wasn't your fault. Shredder insulted you. You had no choice.
--> '''Splinter''': "No choice?" I could have chosen to ignore him. I could have chosen to let his words wash over me, like a river over stone. But I let him anger me. It was I who made his words into weapons. ''(walks over to Raph)'' That was the choice ''I'' made. ''(puts a hand on his shoulder)'' What choice will ''you'' make?

--> '''Splinter''': No, I am a man. I am ''Hamato Yoshi!''

--->'''Leo''': I trusted you!
--->'''Karai''': I know! That's messed up, right?

-->'''Leo''': Donnie, whatever, Pulverizer...Timothy, was, is gone now.

-->'''Donnie''': Don't worry my friend. One day, I'll find a cure.

--> '''Pulverizer''': Donnie, there's something wrong...!

-->'''Baxter''': What am I? I'm nothing anymore. I'm a freak. I'll never be taken seriously as a scientist.

-->'''Splinter''': My child...

--> '''Leatherhead''': Thank you... my friends... I feared... that you would never come.

-->'''Leo''': ''(to himself)'' Stop whining, and just do it!

-->'''Donnie''': I get it now… Donnie is to April as Bigfoot was to Donnie. I'm just… ''a mutant.''

--->'''April''': You're ''not'' just a mutant, Donnie… you're ''my'' mutant.

--> '''Mikey''': I'm not gonna stay where I'm not wanted.

---> '''Fugitoid''': It has to be this way, my friends. If you knew my intent, you would have surely tried to stop me, and for that... I thank you. Let it be known that you are my friends... and I love you all.

* ''Where to begin?'' The premise is that some sort of mega mutagen-bomb destoryed humanity and the story takes place 50 years in the future. The world is largely in ruins, the moon has pieces floating out and Raph and Don only have each other. Even in an alternate future, it's brutal.

** When everyone heads out into the woods to search for Raph, Leo stays behind at the house and tries to force himself to stand up and resume training and he goes the extra mile of giving himself some...tough love talk.

* Really, you can't help but feel for Donnie in this episode. After chasing after April since the first episode, he realizes that she doesn't feel the same way. In particular, in the scene where Raph tells him that Donnie "chases after April like a lovestruck puppy" (inexact words), Donnie is angrily about to snap back...before quietly deciding not to.

* In the scene where Leo gives Karai CPR, all the others, even April, look genuinely worried for Karai., meaning they all consider her family and want her to be alright. This also makes this heartwarming as thanks to Leo, she's okay...but badly hurt.

---> '''Fugitoid''': It has to be this way, my friends. If you knew my intent, you would have surely tried to stop me, and for that...I thank you. Let it be known that you are my friends...and I love you all.

-->'''Leo:''' You killed him! He was your brother, and you ''killed him!'' He was your ''brother,'' Saki! Your best friend! How could you ''do that?!''

-->'''Super Shredder:''' [[WhatHaveIBecome No...I...I...]]

** Also at the very end of the episode: April has to go into hiding as both the Kraang and Shredder are now after her. Forced out of her old life because of forces beyond her control or will. Living that kind of like would make anyone else give up hope.
