Darkness on the Edge of Town (Season 1, Episode 6)

The turtles and Splinter are caught off guard when the power goes out in their lair. As if they have always had power. I mean, they live in a sewer. It's not like they always have a convienient outlet wherever they go... although I wouldn't put it past Donnie to design a pocket electic generator... but I digress.
So yeah, they go topside to check it out, since, it'll be dark and no one will see them. This completely ignores the fact that if they were GOOD ninjas, no one would see them anyway. While topside, they take extreme sports vehicles (skates, boards, bikes), and party. This conviently established which sport each turtles plays, and allows for them to make figures based on them... which I own...
While they are topside, they run into the foot. It was bound to be the foot, or a vigilante, or some mutant theif anyway. Always is. They fight the foot, the foot steal something, hilarity ensues.
So the turtles follow the foot to wherevever it is they go... somewhere near the bay. The foot use what they stole (if you have to know, an ancient sword that apparently runs off two 9 volts) to open a hole in the bay and reveal some ancient japanese peice of armor...
Take that in for a moment. There is a piece of japanese armor, ancient no less, in the bottom of a NEW YORK BAY! I swear, I could write this show better... but yeah, it'd have swearing... and possibly nudity. Preferably of April.
Moving on. The turtles fail to thwart the foot, but they do manage to accidentally point the excavating tool at the city... and I forget what happens.
Eh, I know they get the power back on and save the day for the city. Honestly, I think I tuned the rest of the ep out.
Score: 6.1
