History Recap / TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012S2E7SlashAndDestroy

* TheDreadedPretendTeaParty

* ShutUpHannibal: Slash keeps telling Raphael that they are NotSoDifferent. Raphael doesn't take the comparison well after he witnesses Slash brutally attacking the other turtles.

* BookEnds: In the beginning Raphael runs in slow motion to save Spike while shouting his name. In the end, he does it again to save Slash from falling off a building. [[spoiler:This time,he fails.]]

* CastingGag: Corey Feldman the voice of Slash, previously played against Sean Astin, the voice of Raph, in Film/TheGoonies. Bonus points that Feldman played Donatello in Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles, so it's a [[RemakeCameo return to the franchise]] as well.

* HeyItsThatVoice: [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles Corey Feldman]] plays the voice of Slash.

* MoralityPet: Slash used to be Raphael's pet. Once he mutates, his personality becomes MUCH more aggressive, which reminds Raphael that although his brothers may annoy him at times, they still are his family.

* AdaptationalBadass: Slash. No longer is he the mutant turtle looking for his "Binky". Now, he's a mutated turtle with the body build of a luchadore with [[GeniusBruiser a cunning to match]].
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: All the turtles try to protect each other even though Raph had been angry for much of the episode. Mikey and Raph want to find Donnie when he is missing (actually attacked by Slash.) Raph is horrified when he watches Slash attack Mikey. When they find Donnie, Raph is the one who sets Donatello's sprained arm. Donnie and Mikey still try to help Raphael fight Slash even though they are both injured. Leonardo leaps into battle against Slash (not knowing that he used to be Spike) and at the end, Splinter reminds Raphael that while he misses Spike, he still has his brothers. The closing shot is a group hug as Raphael acknowledges that his brothers aren't so bad.

* BookEnds: In the beginning Raphael run in slow motion to save Spike while shouting his name.In the end he does it again to save Slash from falling off a building. [[spoiler:This time,he fails.]]

* CreateYourOwnVillain: Spike (A.K.A. Slash) is after the turtles because he wants to "free" Raph from his brothers. It's because Raphael trained in front of him for years, and vented his frustrations about his brothers to him. Furthermore, Raphael is the one who placed the mutagen canister in the same room as Spike then slammed the door so hard the canister broke open. It doesn't help that Raphael ultimately rejects Slash's offer of WeCanRuleTogether and calls Slash a freak.

* DoNotCallMePaul: After mutating Spike insists being called "Slash".
* DramaticUnmask: Spike removes Donnie and Mikey's masks when he beats them.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Spike, even though he heard Raphael talk about his brothers, had no real ability to do anything about them except nod his head and chew his leaf, while sometimes watching Raphael train. After drinking Mutagen, now he's a [[CombatPragmatist frighteningly efficient combatant]], [[LightningBruiser can hit as hard he can run and use stealth just like the brothers]], and can overpower the Turtles in a straight fight. Slash isn't ''anyone's'' pet anymore.

* LightningBruiser: Slash is surprisingly fast, sneaky and agile for a mutant turtle significantly larger than Raph and the others.

* MoralityPet: Slash used to be Raphael's pet. Once he mutates his personality becomes MUCH more aggressive, which reminds Raphael that although his brothers may annoy him at times, they still are his family.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Raph complaining about Mikey ruining his magazine, Leo sticking up for him and Donnie causing an explosion makes so mad that he takes away Donnie's mutagen as an effort to keep Spike safe, which ends up spilling on the floor and mutates Spike.

* ShutUpHannibal: Slash keeps telling Raphael that they are NotSoDifferent. Raph doesn't take the comparison well after he witnesses Slash brutally attacking the other turtles.

* RuleOfScary: They never explain how [[VoiceChangeling Slash is able to perfectly mimic Leonardo's voice]]. The effect is still terrifying.

* YourHeadAsplode: Mikey's head explodes when he meets Spike/Slash.

* DoNotCallMePaul: After mutating Spike insist of being called "Slash".

* DramaticUnmask: Spike removes Donnie and Mikey's masks when he beats them. This is notably the first time in the franchise any of the turtles has been seen unmasked post-mutation.

* ChekhovsGun: At one point, Splinter hits one of Raph's pressure points to calm him down for a bit. Raph uses this exact technique on Slash near the episode's end.

* DontCallMePaul: After mutating Spike insist of being called "Slash".

* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: Apparently Spike's mutation made him a ''bit'' crazy.

* CreateYourOwnVillain: Spike (A.K.A. Slash) is after the turtles because he wants to "free" Raph from his brothers. It's even worse when Raph calls him a freak, trained in front of him for years, and vented his frustrations about his brothers to him.

* MoralityPet: Ironically, Raph managed to keep Slash, who use to be his (Raph's) per.
