Ep 8. Divide and Conquer

The episode "Divide and Conquer" in season 10 of the 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series follows the Turtles as they face a new challenge when the technologically advanced villain, Cyber-Shredder, returns. This time, the villain has a new plan to divide and conquer the Turtles by turning them against each other.

The episode begins with the Turtles fighting a group of robotic ninjas controlled by Cyber-Shredder. The Turtles successfully defeat the robots and return to the lair, where they meet with April O'Neil and Casey Jones. However, their victory is short-lived as they soon discover that Cyber-Shredder is behind the robots' attack.

Cyber-Shredder has developed a new scheme to finally defeat the Turtles. He has created a machine that can split a person into their component parts, separating their physical traits and emotions. With this device, Cyber-Shredder plans to divide the Turtles, making it easier for him to defeat them.

April informs the Turtles that Cyber-Shredder has already used the machine on Casey. This has turned Casey into his component parts—his bravery, his fear, his sense of humor, and so on. The Turtles are horrified at what has happened to Casey but know that they have to stop Cyber-Shredder before he can divide them.

The Turtles decide to split up and search for the machine, hoping to destroy it before Cyber-Shredder can use it on them. Raphael and Leonardo head out together, while Donatello and Michelangelo go off on their own. Each pair has to navigate through various obstacles and fights with Cyber-Shredder's minions on their way to find the machine.

Meanwhile, Cyber-Shredder sends out his own minions to search for the Turtles and bring them back to him. April and Casey, who are at the lair, are also attacked by Cyber-Shredder's forces. However, April manages to hold her own against them with her martial arts skills, while Casey tries to get himself back together, quite literally.

As they search for the machine, the Turtles face their own fears and struggles. Raphael and Leonardo argue over which direction to take, while Donatello and Michelangelo disagree on how to proceed. However, they eventually overcome their differences and unite to find the machine.

Once they find it, the Turtles attempt to destroy the machine, but Cyber-Shredder arrives and attacks them. The Turtles then face off against him and his minions, in a final battle to determine the fate of their team.

In the end, the Turtles learn the true power of teamwork and friendship, proving that they are stronger together than apart. They manage to defeat Cyber-Shredder once again, destroying his machine and saving themselves from being divided.

"Divide and Conquer" is an exciting and action-packed episode that showcases the Turtles at their best, as they face a new and dangerous threat. It also explores the importance of unity and working together, even in the face of adversity. Fans of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series will enjoy this thrilling adventure.
