Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)

Michael Turney: Danny Pennington

Quotes 

• Splinter : I too once had a family, Danny. Many years ago I lived in Japan: a pet of my master Yoshi, mimicking his movements from my cage and learning the mysterious art of Ninjitsu, for Yoshi was one of Japan's finest shadow warriors. His only rival was a man named Oroko Saki, and they competed in all things, but in nothing more fiercely than for the love of a woman, Tang Shen. Shen's love was only for my master and rather than see him fight Saki for her hand, she persuaded Yoshi to flee with me to America. But Saki vowed vengeance. I remember it well, as my master returned home to find his beloved Shen lying on the floor, and then he saw her killer. Saki wasted no words, and during the struggle, my cage was broken. I leapt to Saki's face, biting and clawing, but he threw me to the floor and took one swipe with his Katana, slicing my ear. Then he was gone, and I was alone.

  Danny : What became of this Oroku Saki?

  Splinter : Nobody really knows... But you wear his symbol.

• Michaelangelo : Oh man, I could go for a little deep dish action right about now.

  Danny : I had some pizza here the other day. There might be some left over.

  [Donatello takes a look] 

  Michaelangelo : Well?

  Donatello : Question!

  Michaelangelo : Grrr, yeah?

  Donatello : Do you like penicillin on your pizza?

  Michaelangelo : Doh!

  [Donatello and Michelangelo start humming "Taps" and set the pizza aside] 

• [the Turtles' weapons are aimed at Danny as he exits the closet] 

  Danny : Don't shoot!

  Raphael : [his weapon is a Sai]  I don't think it's loaded, kid.

• April O'Neil : [trying to change the subject from Charles giving her security]  Hey, Danny, how's school going?

  Danny : Fine.

  Charles : Oh, wonderful. So wonderful, in fact, that I have to drive him there every morning now just to make sure he goes.
