History Recap / TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012S3E15TheNoxiousAvenger

* AbsenteeActor: Shredder and most of his gang do not appear. Hun the new leader of The Purple Dragons doesn't show up despite his big debut in the previous episode [[Recap/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012S3E14CaseyJonesVsTheUnderworld Casey Jones VS. The Underworld]] The Purple Dragons minus Hun make a cameo appearance, & Baxter Stockman has a non speaking cameo. Casey Jones and Karai are also absent.
* BittersweetEnding: PlayedForLaughs. The Turtles gain an ally in Muckman and are able to keep their existence a secret, but in the process they disobeyed Splinter and [[RealityEnsues thus they're still grounded]].

** At the end of the episode, Muckman mentions The Pulverizer when he lies to The News to cover up the Turtles existence.
* TheConscience: Joe Eyeball, who was Garson's left eye when he was human, is this for Muckman. He instantly knows that Bebop and Rocksteady are not good guys, and tells Muckman not to work with them. He also convinces Muckman not to kill The Turtles and to become their friend.
* FoeTossingCharge: Rocksteady plows through Michaelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael to make his retreat. Michaelangelo lampshades this and calls out Raphael for insulting him and pissing him off.

* FromACertainPointOfView: Bebop and Rocksteady claim the Turtles mutated them, which in a roundabout way ''is'' true; since it was their interference during ''Serpent Hunt'' that lost them Karai and subjected them to their mutation.

* HorrifyingHero: He was just an ordinary garbage man before he became Muckman, afterwards he sees The Purple Dragons mugging a man and beats them up. At first it looks like the man he saves is gonna freak out but he actually thanks Muckman for what he did, and tells a woman who happens to walk by and freak out, that Muckman isn't a monster, but a "Monster Hero."

* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: In the episode, Splinter had grounded the Turtles for being exposed to the public (by accident) when they were chasing Muckman. By the episode's ending though, despite making amends with Muckman, and in return, Muckman saving them by saying they're just people dressing up, like [[ContinuityNod The Pulverizer]], the Turtles ([[WouldHitAGirl as well as April]], [[SubvertedTrope presumably]]) still get the shit kicked out of them by Splinter because they left the Lair when they were still grounded.

* ReluctantMonster: Muckman hates what he has become, but at least the citizens of New York don't hate him, in fact after he is witnessed saving a man from The Purple Dragons he develops quite a following of fans. This annoys him, because he just wants to be left alone. At the end of the episode, he seems to accept what he has become, and has made friends with The Turtles.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Initially Muckman believes the Ninja Turtles are responsible for what happened to him and goes after them, even briefly teaming up with Bebop and Rocksteady to try and beat them. Eventually he becomes friends with The Turtles and covers up their existence from The News, flat out lying that they aren't mutants, just people wearing costumes, [[ContinuityNod "just like The Pulverizer"]]

* TacticalWithdrawal: Rocksteady orders Bebop to disappear and take The Reagent X Chemical back to the Shredder, while he stays behind to deal with The Turtles because "[[{{Malaproper}} We cannot return to the Shredder with the empty hands!]]"

* WhatTheHellHero: Splinter is [[{{Understatement}} unamused]] when the Turtles are caught on tape by Grody and grounds them. Later, he's similarly displeased when April covers the Turtles' escape from the lair.

* BittersweetEnding: The Turtles gain an ally in Muckman and are able to keep their existence a secret, but in the process they disobeyed Splinter and [[RealityEnsues thus they're still grounded]].

* WhatTheHellHero: Splinter is enraged when the Turtles are caught on tape by Grody and grounds them. Later, he's similarly displeased when April covers the Turtles' escape from the lair.

* HeroWithBadPublicity: Hilariously subverted, despite being a disgusting walking pile of ooze, the citizens of New York aren't afraid of nor do they hate Muckman, in fact they chase him around everywhere because they can't get enough of him. This annoys Muckman who just wants to be left alone.
** This one is played straight for the Turtles, however.

* TacticalWithdrawal: Rocksteady orders Bebop to disappear and take The Reagent X Chemical back to the Shredder, while he stays behind to deal with The Turtles because "[[{{Malaproper}} We cannot return to the Shredder with the empty hands!]]"

* ShoutOut: The name of the episode is one to Film/TheToxicAvenger.
** To {{YouTube}}r AndreTheBlackNerd, who is one of the biggest YouTube personalities to regularly review the show and has interviewed the cast multiple times. The opening fight that ends with Muckman getting mutated has Bebop call out, "[[ScrewThisImOuttaHere That's it.]] [[CatchPhrase I'm outie 5000!]]" before turning invisible and bolting.

* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Rocksteady realizes from a paused video of some news footage that Muckman is scared and can easily be manipulated, he and Bebop successfully team up with him for a short while to beat the crap out of the Turtles and steal more chemical ingredients, [[InternalReveal before Muckman finds out they're The Bad Guys!]]
