* DramaPreservingHandicap: Happens to Splinter, Don and Mike:
** Master Splinter is injured by Karai and he spends the rest of the fight out of commission.
** Don has to carry Master Splinter over his shoulder, supporting him with both his arms, leaving him unable to use them and his weapon, forcing him to rely on kicks alone to combat his opponents.
** Mike is carrying Klunk, who is a tiny kitten and can fit in his hand. So, at any given point, while he is not completely handicapped, like Don, he is still unable to give his 100% in a fight.

As the following episode reveals, this results in all of them surviving.
