* XenomorphXerox: The Squirrelanoids that are an obvious {{Expy}} of the Xenomorph from ''Film/{{Alien}}'', are a pack of mutants that spawned when a squirrel discovered a spilled canister of mutagen. The squirrel found a homeless man and forced itself into the bum's stomach where it divided into two squirrels (a process similar to the chestburster, though non-lethal because they exit [[OrificeEvacuation out the mouth]]), one of which repeated the process with Raphael. They later underwent a transformation, becoming more monstrous mutants similar in appearance to Xenomorphs, including an elongated, translucent head, a second mouth hidden within its first one and a skeleton-esque exoskeleton.

* BreatherEpisode: Downplayed. It's a break from the problems that the Turtles and April ran into, and Mikey's comic obsession does add humor to the plot. But the Squirrelanoids and dark environments, however, heighten the creepiness factor of the episode considerably, even if the Squirrelanoids seem to start out fairly cute.
