Back at the lair, Mikey, Leo, and Raph were sitting on the sofa. Donny had gone into the lab to check on Chloe.

"How are you feeling?" Donny asked Chloe who had just woken up.

"A little sore but other than that, fine," Chloe replied.

"I just need to check your vital signs."

"OK."

Donny spent the next few minutes checking Chloe's vital signs. After making sure everything was in normal range, Donny unhooked Chloe from the IV and put it in a nearby corner.

"Feel up to joining the others?" Donny asked.

"Sure, that would be nice," Chloe replied.

"I'd better carry you to be on the safe side."

"Exactly what I'm thinking."

Donny carefully lifted Chloe off the bed. Then he carried her out of the lab with Chloe latched on.


Leo, Mikey, and Raph stood up when they saw Donny enter carrying Chloe. Donny put Chloe on the sofa and covered her with a blanket.

Chloe glanced at the pile of DVDs. On top was the newspaper that Donny and Leo borrowed from her grandparents.

"I see you found out why I was home schooled," Chloe told the turtles.

"Did you want to talk about it?" Leo asked.

"You really want to hear it?" Chloe asked.

"Sure," Mikey said.

"Let's hear it," Raph said.

"It's a good way to get to know you more," Donny said.

"All right, then, make yourselves comfortable," Chloe instructed.

Mikey and Donny sat on the sofa joining Chloe. Leo and Raph sat down on the floor leaning against the sofa.
