EPISODE SUMMARY: In an effort to rid himself of the Turtles, The Shredder with the help of Rocksteady and Bebop kidnap Obento, caretaker of the Far East Animal Society, and blackmail Usagi Yojimbo into destroying the Turtles. Usagi refuses to take the lives of four in exchange for one because it is dishonorable. The Shredder challenges Usagi to a sword fight -- if Usagi loses he must serve The Shredder. Naturally, the only way that The Shredder can win is if he cheats -- which he does. Usagi is honor bound and sets out after the Turtles. Back at the Lair, Donatello is unsuccessful at finding Usagi Yojimbo's dimension on his Pan-Dimensional Portal - he needs Usagi's help. The Turtles don their disguises and venture out of the sewers -- along the way, they encounter Usagi who reluctantly attacks the Turtles. Needless to say, the Turtles are very confused. Usagi retreats to a shopping mall and the Turtles give chase, believing that Usagi is being forced to attack the Turtles. After they subdue him, they head for the Far East Society in an effort to talk with Obento about Usagi's strange behavior.
