Cellphone videos show how each of the turtles and April are getting along in high school with their various clubs and activities. We also see Leo and April researching TCRL labs. We then see them at the prom, where the video zooms out to reveal it’s a surveillance camera tracking the turtles. Cynthia Utrom is watching them and scheming how to capture them. She issues the command: “Bring me… The Shredder.”, ending with an over-the-shoulder shot of Shredder on a NYC rooftop, looking upon the city.

What did you think of this film?

Worlds collide in “The Flash” when Barry uses his superpowers to travel back in time in order to change the events of the past. But when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation, and there are no Super Heroes to turn to. That is, unless Barry can coax a very different Batman out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian… albeit not the one he’s looking for. Ultimately, to save the world that he is in and return to the future that he knows, Barry’s only hope is to race for his life. But will making the ultimate sacrifice be enough to reset the universe?
