It took nearly two days of hard work, but the group finally finished the van. It perfectly matched Mikey's drawing, for better or for worse. The van had a giant inflatable turtle head on the top, some visually appealing logos on the sides, and it even had a license plate that said, "Dude 01". Mikey couldn't be prouder at what he, his brothers, and John accomplished and said, "Isn't it beautiful?" "Depends on your definition of beautiful." said Raph. "Well Mikey, it looks great, but we still to do several things before we officially start this business." "Like what?" asked Mikey. "First, you need a costume." said John. "What's wrong with what I got on now. Whenever I go to a comic convention, everyone assumes I'm already wearing a costume, even though I'm not." said Mikey. "Mikey, just because it worked at a comic convention doesn't mean it will work in other places. Besides, some people will think your "costume" is too realistic and once they figure it out, we're screwed. Do you understand?" said Donnie. "(Sigh) Fine. I'll wear a costume." said Mikey. "Actually Mikey, you don't have to wear a full costume." said Donnie. "What do you mean?" asked Mikey. "Come here and I'll show you." said Donnie.

Mikey went over to Donnie and asked, "Well, what do you want to show me?" "John found this at a party store and he thought it would look great." said Donnie. Donnie showed Mikey a large cartoonish turtle head. "Do I have to wear that?" asked Mikey. "Unless you want to be on the national news, then I suggest you wear it." said Donnie. "Ughhh." said Mikey as he put on the head. "Dude, I can't see anything in here." said Mikey. "Don't worry, I have a solution." said Donnie. Donnie got up, grabbed a pen, and jabbed two holes in the middle of the fake head. "Better?" asked Donnie. "Much better. Now I won't bump into anything." said Mikey. "Let's show John and Mikey what you like." said Donnie.

The two walked over to John and Raph and showed him Mikey's costume. "Not bad. Definitely looks appealing to kids." said John. "You like a rejected Chuck E. Cheese character." said Raph. "Raph!" said Donnie. "What? I'm just honest. I never liked those guys. Especially with their dead, unblinking eyes." said Raph. "I'm not trying to appeal to you, Raph. I'm trying to appeal to small children, who eat this stuff right up. Why do you think Barney was a big hit?" said Mikey. "Cause kids like dinosaurs more than turtles." said Raph. Mikey was about to make a comeback, but he stopped himself. "Guys, we need to focus on how we're going to accomplish this." said John. "Sorry." said Raph and Mikey. "Mikey, I know you don't have a driver's license, for obvious reasons, but do you know the basics of driving?" asked John. "Yeah. I know red means stop, green means go, there's a brake and pedal, I think a "Yield" signs means to stop when there's traffic, and there's this stick you use to park, drive, reverse, and do other things." said Mikey. "Okay, at least you know the essentials. In case something happens, I'm going to give you a driver's license." said John as he gave Mikey the license. "Who's this?" asked Mikey. "My 16-year-old son, Daniel." said John. "Why are you giving me his license?" asked Mikey. "He thought it would be a great idea to take my car out for a joyride and he ended up causing thousands of dollars in damages. I punished him by taking away his license and forcing him to do community service." said John. "Damn. That's harsh." said Raph. "Yeah, but it couldn't have come at a better time." said John.

"What else do we need to do before I head out?" asked Mikey. "Mikey, how do I say this? We need you to take off your belt." said Donnie. "What?!" said Mikey. "It's not what you think, Mikey. We need it off in order to make your "costume" more legit." said Raph. Mikey was confused, but he said, "Okay." Raph grabbed a large zipper sticker and placed it on Mikey's plastron. "This will only enhance your look, because if people see it, they'll think it's just a costume you can easily take off." said Raph. "I guess that makes sense." said Mikey. "Mikey, for the Cowabunga Carl head, I installed a small camera inside and added a headset. The camera will allow us to see what you see and the headset will allow us to communicate with you. Raph, John, and I will be speaking to you from here, so if anything happens, we'll help you out." said Donnie. "That's really cool. Thanks Donnie." said Mikey. "Before you go, we need to go over some rules. One, we only accept cash, not checks. Two, follow the directions we give you and don't go on your own path. Three, absolutely NO VIOLENCE. The last thing we need is a lawsuit. Four, time is money, so do the parties as fast as possible. Don't be slow." said John. The three turtles immediately glared at John for his comment. "Okay, that was a bad joke. Where were we? Oh right, the last rule I have for you is to have a positive attitude. It's going to be rough, but as long as you look happy, the kids will be happy and that's the most important thing. That and making money." said John. "Also, Mikey, don't try to flirt with any teenage girls." said Raph. "Why not? They'll find me adorable." said Mikey. "Two reasons. One, you're a turtle and two, you're just not good at it, so please don't try it." said Raph. "Alright, I won't flirt with girls. What if the moms try to flirt with me?" asked Mikey. "Ignore all of their advances." said Donnie. "Duly noted." said Mikey. Mikey looked at the clock and said, "Well, I guess it's time to get to work." "Yep. Who would have thought that my baby brother would have his first job today?" said Raph. "No one." said John. "It was a rhetorical question." said Raph. "I hope this goes well, but can we do a cool chant before I go." said Mikey. "Sure." said Donnie. The four put their hands in a pile and Mikey said, "Okay, on three. One. Two. Three. TMNT!" Mikey got in the van, started up the engine, and drove off to his first destination. Now the real fun begins.
