A large mutant silverfish screeched at Raph while holding a laundry basket full of clothes.

"Okay, mutant silverfish. You've eaten people's laundry for the last time!" He growled at them. He smashed his tonfas on the silverfish, which split up into another creature. "What the?"

He hit the silverfish again, but they doubled to two more and went to eat underwear.

"Hey, Raph!" Donnie flew to him with a bored expression. "Every time you smash them, they just split in two!"

"I know. Isn't it cool?"

"Think, Raph, think."

Raph thought about the problem for a moment before realizing something. "Oh...I guess it does double the problem. Which means double the smashing!" He repeatedly smashed at the silverfish, which doubled to dozens more that attacked him all over his body.

"I got you, Raph!" Mikey used his kusari-fundo to gather the silverfish that was on Raph. He flew up in the air with the mutants and whooped. "This situation calls for a dose of my psycho-acrobatics!"

At that moment, Mizuki swooped in from the building roof above and landed with ease on a dumpster top. Mikey saw her as he flew by her. "Hi, Mizzy!"

He grunted when his body collided with a balcony outside the apartment windows and fell into a trash can with the silverfish. The trash can moved hastily when the creatures started to attack Mikey. They flew out of the trash can and began biting at Mikey, who yelped in fright. Mizuki winced with sympathy at the younger turtle's upbringing.

"Oh, boy," Donnie face-palmed himself.

"I got you, Mikey," Leo sliced open a fire hydrant.

The water harshly shoved the silverfish off of Mikey. They all landed on the wet ground, seemingly lifeless. Leo landed in front of Raph and Mikey, smirking. "Looks like these fish are..." he chuckled and covered his face. "Wait for it, you're gonna love this...all washed up."

Mikey booed at him as he and Raph moved their hands in a shooing manner. Mizuki rolled her eyes, her arms folded in front of her chest.

"Okay, okay, okay, how 'bout this: Those bugs are so wet—" Leo was busy coming up with another one-liner that he didn't notice the silverfish getting back up.

"Uh, Leo..." Donnie started.

The silverfish jumped at the three and attacked them. The three brothers yelled as they tried to get them off of them to no avail.

"Hold on, I got it," Mizuki pulled out her fans and threw them at two of the silverfish that were on Mikey.

"Ugh, this is getting old," Donnie commented, his robo-shell changing back to normal. He pressed a button on his staff, shifting it to a tennis-ball shooter, and shot the other silverfish off the three turtles. The silverfish ran away, screeching in terror. Donnie's staff transformed back to its original form as the mutant silverfish disappeared around the corner.

"Mission accomplished!" Mikey exclaimed.

"You guys okay?" Mizuki asked the trio.

"Yeah. Nice hustle, you guys. I knew we could deal with this as a team." Raph said to Donnie and Mizuki.

"Actually, it was pretty much just me and Mizuki," Donnie countered. "But, segue, I think I have a little something to kick our skills to high gear." He used his arm device and pressed a button on it. A drill appeared from the ground in its glory.

"What the what?" Mikey gasped.

"Jumpin' Jack Flash!" Raph yelled in amazement.

"It's beautiful," Mikey hugged the drill.
