Angel: Hey guys! I found the episode around 2 pm, but I was having trouble with the website I was using. And I literally just got back from Coldstone...love that place, they have this oreo creme filling that I get all the time.

Anyway, there's a subtle reference here to two previous characters here :3 Don't know if I'll actually use them, though. Time will tell. And Amy's not really being abused, per se. It's only because of her mother's condition that she attacks Amy. It's mentally affecting her to the point where she'll attack someone who looks like a family member to her. So yeah, not abuse. I think Amy's been through enough already at this point for it to be abuse to other people.

And there actually is a reason why Brit wants the bakery, but I can't spoil it just yet.

MPN, that poem is awesome XD Though, I didn't put that many Leonamy moments in here, sorry ^^'

And no, Baxter Stockboy is not the one who wants Amy's bakery. Brit and Baxter are two different people, and they don't look anything alike. Brit just wants the store for a secret, unknown reason. Baxter Stockboy just wants to get money. It really goes down to jealousy rather than Amy's bakery. Stockboy knows about her bakery, since she does videos there sometimes, but his parents have a supermarket, so I'd imagine they'd have something related to a bakery like some supermarkets would.

The turtles, Amy, April, and Splinter are all watching TV together, since there's a commercial. They're watching April on TV for her new job to support her. But there was one thing she forgot to mention to Raph specifically that he was about to find out for himself...

"Congrats on the acting job, April!" Raph exclaims, "I'm so happy for you, I could punch a rainbow!"

Amy is handing out blueberry pie to everyone that she made herself. It has a flaky golden crust on top and bottom, with the blueberries seen under the crust. Instead of her white t-shirt and green jacket, she's wearing a long-sleeved green sweater that's made out of cotton. It covers up her arms. She's holding a bowl of whipped cream and places a dollop on top of Leo's slice.

"This pie is looking sweet, my lady," Leo winks at her and she rolls her eyes playfully. She'll give him that one...just this once. She holds the whisk and pokes him in the nose with it, leaving some whipped cream on him. "Hey!"

"There's your sweetness right there," She smirks as he takes a towel and wipes himself off with it, grinning smugly.

"It's just a tiny, basic cable show," April waves it off, looking away with a smug look. Amy hands her a slice of pie.

"Mm, not so tiny. It knocked Scorpion Treadmill out of its time slot," Splinter mutters bitterly.

"Oh come on, Splinter," Amy stands next to him. "I made you blueberry pie~"

"Now I feel complete," He smiles as he closes his eyes, taking the slice from Amy.

"Say," Leo rubs Raph's left shoulder. "How'd you sit in the front row, Raph?"

"Okay!" He agrees without a second thought, April chuckling as she nudges Amy knowingly. She bites her lip to contain her laughter. Raph sits in front of everyone as Amy gives two slices of pie away, one for Donnie and one for Mikey. She holds the last slice, decorating it with the whipped cream. Everyone takes a bite in unison, everyone except Amy humming in delight.

"Omigod. It's like a blueberry paradise in my mouth..." Mikey sighs in content. Raph chuckles at Amy.

"One of these days, you'll kill us with how awesome your desserts are," He comments and Amy scoffs.

"I've heard that plenty of times and every customer comes back alive with more money, but the compliments to the baker, who was that? Oh right, me," Amy grins at them. "Are appreciated."

"Hi kids," April appears on screen dressed as a bunny. "It's time for the Laffy Fun Time Hour with Mrs. Cuddles!" April moves back from the rainbow and meadow scenery, gesturing to a stuffed rabbit surrounded by a chicken, carrots, and eggs. Mrs. Cuddles has a dark blue body, a light blue muzzle and belly and a white cotton-ball tail. She also has rainbow-printed floppy ears, buck teeth, large eyes with black pupils, thick eyelashes and a red nose. Mrs. Cuddles also wears a yellow bow on the top of her head.

Raph's eyes widen as he looks at the rabbit doll. "Let's be friends forever!"

"What?" Raph shakes in fear as he looks at the bunny in the eyes. Those beady, little eyes that are haunting him at this moment. Mrs. Cuddles winks at the camera and his eyes twitch as in his mind, a carrot breaks in half. Raph lets out a scream and dives behind Splinter's armchair. "No! Not Mrs. Cuddles!"

While he's in terror, the others are smiling except Amy, who's hiding her mouth behind her fist. His brothers let out a laugh at him. That's right, Raph is scared of Mrs. Cuddles, and they knew she was coming on to show Amy that he really was scared of her.

"Hey, you guys know I can't watch this!" He protests.

"Is my acting that bad?" April looks down at him smugly.

"No, no, no!" He denies, shaking his head. He wanted to support April, he really did. "It ain't you, April. It's-"

Mrs. Cuddles is tilted at the screen. "Let's be friends!" She exclaims, to which Raph screams for the second time. He runs and crashes against the wall. Sliding onto the floor, he lands roughly, looking up at the ceiling. Even Splinter is laughing at him, looking away from the TV for once.

"Raph's fear flops make me laugh everytime!" He continues laughing, Raph growling at the fact that his friends and family are scaring him for laughs. "Oh, red one."

"What?" Raph demands as he stands over Leo, Amy, and Splinter. "You think I'm afraid of Mrs. Cuddles? Uh, um, I'm just upset about something else which I'll think of what that is later. Mellie believes me, right?"

He stares at Amy, who's shaking, snorting as she covers her eyes. She finally lets out a laugh, bending over to her knees. Leo looks surprised as he's never heard her laugh like this. Amy lifts her head up, still laughing as the others grin.

"I'm sorry, Raph, but you're telling me," Amy takes a breath, "That you're afraid of a TV show bunny?!" She continues laughing, standing up and walking over to the ramp, her laughter still being heard. "Cripes, I haven't laughed like this for a few years. Oh, man," She lets out a breath, bending over the ramp.

"I'll forgive you if you make me more pie," Raph grumbles, crossing his arms.

"I don't care, it's worth it!" She cries out, giggling.

"Be nice, guys," April tells them, glancing at the projector screen. "You know, I bet a sandwich would make you feel better, Raph." Mrs. Cuddles appears on screen behind her and he yelps, immediately running to the kitchen. Amy's laughter echoes throughout the lair and Leo walks up to her. She's sitting near the railing, wiping away her tears from the laughing.

"Are you okay?" He chuckles and she nods, stifling another laugh.

"I can't stop," She covers her mouth as she laughs again, Leo holding up his hands like he agreed with her.

Raph opens the pantry as he can still hear Amy. "Wish I had sandwiches for brothers. Be better than those jerks." He grabs a pack of bread, his eye twitching as he glances at the entrance to the kitchen. "Would ya stop laughing?!"

"Heck no!" Amy calls out, giggling. "Stop complaining, you're already getting a pie since you're afraid of a BUNNY!" She continues with her ongoing laughter and Leo laughs at her, getting out a water bottle for when she would stop, if that was possible right now.

"I like seeing you laugh," Leo admits as he hands her the water. "It makes you look...different. A good different."

Amy chuckles slightly as she accepts the drink. "Everyone's different, Leo." She takes a sip. "But you're a good different too..."

They smile at each other fondly and Leo glances over to her arm. He knew and understood the real reason why she wore that sweater...

"Can I see it?" He asks her and Amy fidgets a little. She hadn't moved it that much so she could put less pressure on it, so she didn't know how it would look...would it look disgusting? Would he be disgusted by her?

Wait, why does she care what Leo thinks? Sure, he was her friend, but most of the time, Amy could care less about what people had to say. For some reason, she valued Leo's opinion all of a sudden.

"Sure..." She lifts up her sleeve slowly as the bandage has a little blood on it. "I haven't touched it since then."

"Good. Make sure to put as little pressure on it as possible. I know you won't stop working for a few days, so I'm not going to ask you to."

Amy looks at him in surprise that he wasn't going to prevent her from working. But actually, on the inside, she feels grateful that he supported her in that decision.

"Thanks Leo...for everything," She smiles at him and he sits down next to her.

"Of course. I can't leave my lady in peril," He gestures to himself and she rolls her eyes slightly, looking away with a smile. She's gotten accustomed to all the nicknames, but 'my lady' was her favorite. It just...touched her in a way that she's never felt before.

"Okay, sure, I'm a little jumpy," He says to himself as he prepares his sandwich. "But afraid? Raph don't do afraid. He opens another cabinet, only for Mrs. Cuddles to jump out of it and he lets out a scream. "IT'S IN THE LAIR!"

He lands against the pot rack, three pots landing on his head and at least six spoons landing on top of them. He growls as he throws them off, a soup ladle landing on his head. The others join him, laughing.

"Oh, I'm enjoying this," Donnie comments in laughter.

"The guys tell us girls Mrs. Cuddles totally freaks ya out," April starts off, gesturing to Amy. "And she didn't believe them. So I brought her over in the trunk for a sweet prank," She jerks her head at a trunk that she had brought with her.

"Oh, trust me, I believe it now," Amy giggles, placing a hand on Mikey's shoulder. "Oh, thanks, guys. You really made me laugh today in this beautiful moment."

"Anything for our new best friend," Mikey winks at her. Amy snickers as she shoves Mrs. Cuddles in Raph's face, making him freak out. She leans against the sink, not noticing a lightning bolt from her hand hitting the faucet. It suddenly sprays water on her and she shrieks.

"Ah, ah, ah! Oh god!" It stops and she's soaking wet, annoyed.

"Hey, no hard feelings, okay, big brother?" Donnie teases, holding the stuffed rabbit. "Let's be friends forever," He waves it in front of Raph, laughing.

"Oh, good one. Making my heart almost explode." Raph chuckles nervously as he stands up, holding his chest. "For the record, these are tears of laughter," He points to his teary eyes, but really, they're tears of utter fear. "I'm laughing at you."

"These," Amy points to her red eyes, "Are tears of laughter. Those," She points to him, "Are not." He looks at Mrs. Cuddles, who is hanging from a string. He tries to gather up some bravery.

"You got this, Raph," He encourages himself. "Forget about her evil eyes, and those...floppy ears that always taunt you." He looks away to continue making his sandwich, gasping in horror as he sees that Mrs. Cuddles is gone from her spot. "Hey, where'd she go?"

He gasps sharply as the bread for his sandwich is gone. He grits his teeth nervously, glancing over to the other counter, where a finished sandwich and Mrs. Cuddles sit. "Heh, I must've put it there..." He examines the rabbit. "Yeah," He snatches the sandwich before something else could happen. He takes a bite, humming in delight, but gets a bad feeling. He slowly turns around and sees the rabbit has come to life, holding a pickle.

"Who wants a pickle wickle?!"

Raph falls onto the floor in shock. "It's alive!" He cries out, dropping his sandwich. He doesn't even care as he screams. Mrs. Cuddles suddenly grows larger. "And getting bigger!"

"Howdy hi, big screamer! Usually I hear giggles all day," She smiles, "But what I love is screams!" She holds her hands as she looks delighted. "Make me grow, and grow, and grow!"

He screams as he stands up. "YOU GUYS! Mrs. Cuddles is real!" He points at the doll, his brothers and friends peeking into the kitchen.

"Scaredy pants say wha?" Leo asks innocently, Amy bending over and laughing again.

"I'm sorry," She lets out a laugh. "It's just so funny..."

"What?" Raph asks in disbelief. "Okay, fine, you were right. I'm afraid of Mrs. Cuddles. But it turns out she's really real!" He points at the rabbit and Amy stands up, shaking her head.

"Okay, we get it, we took the joke too far," April waves it off as to them, Mrs. Cuddles is perfectly fine.

Raph lets out a sigh as they don't believe him. "Watch!" He slams down a fist in front of the rabbit doll, which does not move. "Okay, demon, reveal yourself!" Mrs. Cuddles falls down onto the table, confusing Raph. April and Donnie walk away, not bothering to listen to anymore.

"When you're ready to grow up and be an adult, Raphael," Mikey says pointedly. "We'll be in the arcade."

"At first it was hilarious, but now you're being ridiculous," Amy walks away behind Leo and Mikey.

"Guys, don't leave me alone with her!" He calls out, but they're already gone. "It's only a bunny. You can do this. Just show her you're not afraid of her," He whimpers as he looks at the counter, only for Mrs. Cuddles to not be there again. He starts quivering and screams, leaving the kitchen.

"That bunny on every show," Splinter complains as he switches the channels, but all he sees is Mrs. Cuddles. He already hated her. "And commercial. Come on, who buys an SUV from a bunny?!"

Raph slides in front of him, blocking his view. "Have you seen Mrs. Cuddles?! She's vanished! She's out there just waiting to pounce!" He sees Mrs. Cuddles on the TV screen and screams in fear, taking off into a run. "Save yourself!"

"I will never marry any of them off," Splinter says in dismay. "Except maybe blue one. Perhaps I should find two girls...maybe named Ann and Lily? ...Nah." He goes back to switching the channels.

Leo and Mikey are playing air hockey against each other, Mikey cheering as he gets a point. Amy and April are battling each other in Dance Dance Revolution when Raph lands on the air hockey table.

"I can't find Mrs. Cuddles!" He panics in fear rather than concern for April's job.

"You lost the puppet?" April questions slowly. "Oh man, I am so fired. I'll check the kitchen," She runs off to go search.

"If you're gonna go, take a bat! Or the Turtle Tank! Hey! And don't scream!" Raph calls out after her.

"We are not using the Turtle Tank in the lair, Raph!" Amy warns him.

April opens the pantry doors to where she had left Mrs. Cuddles for the prank. She peeks around, but doesn't find the doll, closing the double doors. She sighs in worry.

"How could you lose Cuddles, April?" She moves around spices, throwing them to the floor. She checks other cabinets and then the shelves, but nothing. She places a hand on her hair in frustration.

"Hey, I know you from work!"

"Not funny, Raph," April deadpans, thinking that it's Raph impersonating Mrs. Cuddles to get back at her. "That is the worst Cuddles impression I have ever heard." She looks down and sees the rabbit. "Hey, there you are!"

Mrs. Cuddles giggles, winking at her. April screams and as expected, the rabbit grows bigger, towering over her.

"Ah," Donnie sighs in his lab. "Which project to work on? Self-cleaning toothpick," He looks at a toothpick that has arms, cleaning itself. "Amy's bike so that she can control her powers?" He glances at Amy's bike in the corner, which Amy had used to get herself to the lair. "Or the titanium bust of myself?" A bust of Donnie sits in front of him, shimmering.

"Like I need to ask. Huh?" He looks surprised to see Mrs. Cuddles right next to the bust of himself, not noticing she's gotten larger. "Oh dear me, gasp," He says sarcastically, "It is Mrs. Cuddles. Nice try, Raph, come on out."

"No Raphie," He looks at the talking rabbit in shock. "Just little ol' me!"

His eyes twitch. "Oh my banana pancakes!" He falls down onto the ground, holding the bust of himself. He hugs it as he sits up. "Ah, I don't know what's crazier, the talking puppet or Raph actually being right about something."

Mrs. Cuddles giggles at him. "You're kooky. Give me a scream!"

"A scream? But you're so cute," He says in confusion, Mrs. Cuddles glancing at his staff. "Why would you-" He stammers nervously as she grabs his staff and it turns into a chainsaw. She swings it and he screams, hearing a slice. The head for his bust falls off and he screams, running away from her. As a result, Mrs. Cuddles gets bigger.

"Thank you for my scream~!" She calls out.

Raph peeks under something when he hears something. "Help, help! Help, help!"

"Donnie!" He shakes as he peeks into Donnie's lab. "Really really hope this is another prank, Donnie," He murmurs as he tiptoes. His foot hits something and he looks down to see Donnie's head. Well, the bust head, anyway. Raph screams in fear, "Donnie!" He lets out a sigh of relief as he sees it's not actually his brother. "It's just Donnie's head."

"Penny for your thoughts, Raphie!" He turns around to see Mrs. Cuddles, whose height is half of Donnie's door.

"Where's Donnie?" He asks, sweating.

"In a happy place where he'll scream and I can grow forever," her eyes are red, which is not helping Raph's fear at all. "And now you're gonna join him!" She leaps into the air and he jumps out of the way. As she attacks, Raph dodges her attempts, rolling on the floor as he screams, narrowly avoiding her swings. While he's running, his foot hits Donnie's titanium head, making him fall onto the floor. His holds his foot, with a large red bump on his big toe. He blows on it, looking up to see Mrs. Cuddles jumping towards him. He grabs the chainsaw, trying to push it away from his face. He glances at the head near him and reaches out to it, attempting to grab it. The chainsaw is this close to his face, but he manages to grab the head and hit Mrs. Cuddles in the head with it, knocking her off him. He pants slowly, looking at the head.

"Thanks, Donnie's head," He throws it away and stands up, looking over the non-moving puppet.

"You're such a meanie," She stands up slowly.

"No!" He tackles her to the ground and holds her by the ears, giving a sound of disgust. "You feel so oogy!"

"No, no!" The puck flies through Leo's side and he growls in defeat. He then sees Raph moving Mrs. Cuddles past him, with Mikey gaining another point due to the distraction. "Hey!" He glares at Mikey for the unfairness.

"Hey, you weren't paying attention, so it's fair and square," Amy looks up at him as she's standing near him, working on something from her portable work station.

"You're doing work?" Leo scoffs at her in disbelief.

"Time is money," She tells him. "It's only one order I didn't finish yet."

"Touche."

"Now to lock you up till I figure out how to shrink you and get you back in your trunk." He throws her into a storage locker. Raph takes some items, the others staring at him as he barricades the locker from the outside. "No, no, no, way stronger than Kong! She'd demolish Kong!" He stands in front of the largest items he could find, looking around in panic.

"Wow, we really broke this poor guy," Leo says to Amy and Mikey as they stare. "Wanna skateboard?" He grins at them.

"I'll be in the kitchen," Amy locks up her portable work station by pushing a button. It transforms back into a briefcase, with the pastry safely in a box.

"Oh come on, Ames, you can stop for an hour," Leo places an arm around her.

"When you work at a bakery from 8 in the morning to 9 at night," She starts off, "Come back to me."

Mikey leans into her ear and says something, Amy groaning to herself as she walks past them to the ramp. "What'd you say to her?" Leo wonders.

"Nothing. I just sung, 'Come on, Amy, let's go party,' and she agreed," Mikey smiles, Leo following after him. Splinter walks up to Raph.

"I left my napping robe in here when I was playing Zombie Unicorn," he states.

"Sorry Pop, there's a great evil that I'm protecting us from," Raph says seriously.

"Why didn't you say so, red one?" He jerks a thumb to himself. "I'll guard the door while you grab the weapons."

"Great idea!" Raph exclaims, not knowing that Splinter had tricked him. He runs off and Splinter pushes past the barricade, opening the locker and grabbing the robe. He doesn't notice a pair of red eyes staring at him as he walks away. Mrs. Cuddles giggles, narrowing her red eyes.

"It's gonna be okay, Raphie," Raph tries to assure himself as he has more stuff in his hands. "There's no way that bunny could-" He drops the items in shock to see that Mrs. Cuddles is out. "Get out..."

"I'll be right back, guys, gotta find some cinnamon," Amy walks away.

"Woohoo!" Mikey cheers as he skateboards into the air. "Yeah!" He skates down the ramp and lands at the other side, screaming and landing on the ground as he saw something. He looks behind Leo and whimpers, Leo slowly turning around to see Mrs. Cuddles.

"You're real?!" He exclaims in shock and Amy comes back with a container.

"I found it! Wow, you guys have a lot of-" she stammers as her hand shakes, slowly dropping the cinnamon on the floor. "What the-?!"

"I hope you all scream as well as the red one," Her head tilts and they all scream as she giggles. She flips and lands in front of the two brothers, who are holding each other. Amy is waving a wooden spoon in fear, even though that's not an actual weapon. She grows even bigger, almost reaching the ceiling of the lair in comparison. Amy slowly backs away as Mikey keeps screaming. Then there's black.

"So when she kept growing, that wasn't a clue to stop screaming?" Leo asks Mikey. The two are tied up along with Donnie and April.

"Sorry, but hopefully Raph and Amy heard me."

"Astronauts heard you!" Leo retorts to him.

In space, Mikey's screams could be heard.

"Why can't we just scream for help now?" April wonders before remembering that if they scream, she gets bigger. "Oh. Right. We scream, she grows, not smart, got it."

"I'm starting to think this prank was a bad idea," Mikey comments, Leo glaring at him. It was, after all, Mikey's idea.

Raph is shaking as he steps out of the arcade, Amy looking around below him. She ended up not getting captured because she jumped out of the way.

"I think we got off on the wrong foot, but...please don't hurt me," Raph pleads, jumping and landing behind Amy. She's about to scream, but covers her mouth, turning around to him.

"Don't ever do that again," She warns him and he looks around, quivering.

"Found you, you silly billies!" They turn around to see Mrs. Cuddles, who grins widely at them.

"You...you're huge!" Raph exclaims, Amy's eyes twitching.

"This...is my new nightmare fuel," She bites her lip.

"Uh, I see you met Mikey," Raph guesses, as Mikey is scared easily. "Wait, where is everyone?" He looks around, Mrs. Cuddles laughing.

"Don't you worry about them."

"What?" Amy demands as she worries about Leo's safety. "What did you do to him?!"

"Him?" Raph asks in confusion.

"I-I mean them!"

"Look, sure, you scared me at first. But now," Raph narrows his eyes, "I see you're nothing but an average everyday ginormous bully. And Raph ain't afraid of bullies!"

"We'll see about that," She swings her arm, the two friends jumping over them. "Uh oh." She hits them with her butt, Raph crashes against the ramp, Amy crashing into him. She slides down the ramp slowly. Mrs. Cuddles lands on top of the ramp. Raph tries to run up it, but he doesn't have enough momentum. Mrs. Cuddles swings her ears, breaking a pipe. She laughs as she sprays the two of them with water. Raph loses his balance and flies into the air, landing against a basketball hoop. He gets tangled up in it, Splinter standing nearby as he laughs. Amy stares up at him.

"Look at you, red! And you, Amy!" He points to Amy as she's wet again.

"No giggles! I hate giggles! Stop giggling!" Mrs. Cuddles yells, firing more water. Splinter laughs as he jumps over it, landing on top of Raph.

"No one roughs up my family. Or interrupt my TV regime. You made a powerful enemy, rabbit," He narrows his eyes at her and she jumps, landing right next to him. She swings her ears and Splinter leaps over them. She grabs his foot and throws him into the wall. He recovers, however, and pushes himself over, spinning around and hitting her in the stomach. He kicks her so that she goes falling, crashing into Raph and making him get her cotton ball in his mouth.

"Ow!" He spits out the cotton, wiping his tongue. "Why?!"

"Ohh, someone has a case of cotton mouth!" Splinter jokes, laughing. Amy snickers along with him. She starts shrinking, holding her head. Raph notices it.

"Wait! She's getting smaller!"

"Stop. You're just like those kids on my show! Their giggles steal my power!" She screams as she jumps towards Splinter and Raph, Amy spinning around and kicking her. Raph holds a skateboard as he blocks her attacks.

"Keep at it, Pops," Raph encourages. "The laughing shrinks her!"

"How can I laugh when that bunny is so ferocious?" Nevertheless, he laughs anyway. "I'm sorry, I couldn't say that with a straight face."

"I'm with ya, Splinter," Amy smiles, "I'm with ya." They both laugh and Raph smacks Mrs. Cuddles with the skateboard. She crashes against the skate ramp, landing in front of the three.

"Oh, just don't put me back in my trunk and send me back to the kids!"

Raph chuckles as they tower over her. "Hey, that's a great idea. So great I wanna scream about how great it is." Splinter hits him over the head, Amy smacking him on the arm. "But I won't." He grabs Mrs. Cuddles and throws her into the trunk, Amy locking it.

"So long, pal! Let's be friends for never!" They all laugh at his joke.

"Good one."

"For never."

"Guuuuys!" Leo calls out.

"Anybody there?"

"Somebody untie us!"

"I'm afraid of together."

Splinter chuckles at Raph, who wanted a little payback for the pranks and teasing. "We will get right to that...eventually." He laughs at this and Amy rolls her eyes.

"Eventually my butt. I'll go let them out," She walks away.

"Do I still get my pie?!" Raph calls out after her.
