A sneak attack leaves him bleeding to death. As he struggles to get home, Raph reflects on his relationships with his brothers. This is no longer a battle between life and death, but a battle fought inside his mind.

'When he finally snapped out of it, his vision was stained crimson, and he ripped the strange mask off, because nothing good ever happened when Raphael saw red.' - Set after the 2003 episode 'Identity Crisis'.

"There's a lot of things you don't know about me." - The Shellraiser has broken down. Donnie is getting frustrated. Raph is in an unusually good mood. They strike up a conversation, during which they learn a few things about each other. Brotherly fluff. No t-cest. Just fluff for the sake of fluff. R&R.

As the firstborn 'son' of Hamato Yoshi, Leo was automatically entitled to leadership, from the moment Yoshi decided to raise Leo and his brothers as his own. It was clear to Yoshi that Leo was the eldest, and would someday make a great leader of the Hamato 'clan'.

But as he's barking instructions at his brothers, Don has a horrifying realisation.
