I asked Connie Nervegas what I should write tonight. She said, "Write about Mikey filming his brothers like an OFFICE style documentary," so this might make more sense if you're familiar with "The Office" US TV series. I think I wrote it where non Office fans will understand and still find funny. I've been in such a writer's slump lately..

Characters: Mikey, Raph, Leo, and April

Rated T for a couple of swear words

"Raph, we're rolling!"

"Shut up, numbnuts. I can see the little red dot blinking and your dumb hand waving around like someone on crack!"

"Don't act like you're acting, dude. Act. NATURAL."

Raph gripped the arms of his chair so hard they creaked. "What'll be more natural is beating your face in talking like a big shot!" He shoved his finger violently at the camera. "Why are you filming us? Aren't we supposed to be ninjas?"

Mikey nodded like his head was going to fall off at any second. "That's it, that's it! Act like yourself! And we're not in the Lair so shut up."

"Don't tell me to be natural. Give me something to do!"

"Raph, talk about being a ninja. Being a ninja turtle and beating thugs up and screaming dramatically off a roof on any given night -"

"I don't want them to know that shit! That's private!" His own dignity was at stake, he fumed under his breath, not realizing he looked like a puffer fish through the camera lens.

"We're gonna start over, Russell Crowe," Mikey sighed, killing the red dot and insulting his brother further with the quip, "The Academy for the HOT APPLE FAIL award goes to-"

Leo appeared behind the sliding door, sternly knocking on it. "You're too loud. We're reading out here." He pointed his hardcover edition of Anne Rice's latest novel in April's direction, who was sitting across from him with her headphones plugged in. "Do your horrible acting elsewhere."

Mikey snickered and revived the camera.

Raph shook his head and said with as much force as one would be with a killjoy such as Leo, "Oh, look, another Leonardo who hasn't won anything."

"I didn't find that funny at all, Mikey. That happened twenty minutes ago. Why are you still laughing?" Leo asked, sitting in Raph's old seat.

Raph pounded on the sliding glass door, startling April in her chair behind him. "I came out here to take a leak and you stole my seat!"

Leo looked revolted. "There's a perfectly good bathroom in here, you Neanderthal. Think of the poor flowers and homeless people that might have been under your stream of urine."

A menacing, joyful laughter erupted behind the door. April ripped out her earplugs.

Mikey scrunched up his beak, standing near the door. "Dude, that was pretty nasty.."

After the boys spilled like green blobs on her livingroom floor ready to watch Pay Per View, April screeched quietly into the camera, "Yeah I had to explain to Miss Cunningham why the rain was a little different today. 'New York is the new Hong Kong!' I said." She laughed pathetically. "I'm going to wind up the old turtle lady, aren't I?"
