Sean Astin: Raphael

Quotes 

• Splinter : You all did very well.

  Raphael : But I did better.

  Splinter : This is about self improvement, Raphael. Not about winning or losing.

  Raphael : I know Sensei, but I won and they lost.

  [Splinter pinches Raph on his pressure point] 

  Raphael : [in pain]  Wh-what's really important is that we all did our best! Great job, everyone!

• Raphael : Give it up already. The guy's not gonna show.

  Leonardo : We have to be patient.

  Raphael : No, you have to come up with a better plan, 'cause the four of us standing there with our thumbs up our noises...

  Michelangelo : I don't think they'd fit...

  Raphael : ...is pointless.

  Leonardo : [Van parks on the corner]  You sure about that, Raph?

  Raphael : He showed up, didn't he? I should've complained two hours ago.

  Leonardo : Gentlemen, I have a bold and daring plan. There's no time for hesitation. My orders must be carried out without question.

  [Turtles run off leaving Leo alone] 

  Leonardo : Guys? Guys, wait up!

• Raphael : All right, Donnie. Put down the staff and no one gets hurt.

  Donatello : Uh, you said that last time, Raph, then you hurt me.

  Raphael : Yeah, But less than I would have.

  Donatello : Yeah, right.

  Donatello : [Raphael attacks Donatello] 

  Donatello : Wah! Ah! Should've dropped the staff?

  Raphael : Should've dropped the staff.

• Donatello : [about April]  She's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

  Raphael : Isn't she the only girl you've ever seen?

  Donatello : My point still stands.

• Raphael : [to Snake]  Okay we can do this the easy way or, my vote, the hard way.

  Donatello : Yeah, look at it logically. There are four of us and one of you. What are you gonna do?

  [Snake starts shooting with a gun] 

  Raphael : [to Donatello]  You had to ask!

• Donatello : I think he's delusional.

  Michelangelo : Just... just come on. I'm telling you, the big guy was a robot. And he had a freaky-weird alien brain thing in his chest you gotta believe me!

  Raphael : I'm not sure we do.

  Michelangelo : Oh, yeah? Well you'll change your tune when you see that he's...

  [looks down empty alleyway] 

  Michelangelo : ... gone?

• Splinter : And so your inability to work together allowed them all to get away.

  Raphael : Well, maybe if I didn't have to waste time arguing with hero boy, I could've saved them.

  Leonardo : Hey, if you hadn't gotten in my way, I could have done it, and you went flying off on your own. How smart was that?

  Donatello : Well, it would've worked out great if somebody hadn't hit me in the head with their nunchucks.

  Michelangelo : Well none of this would've happened if somebody hadn't trusted us to go up there in the first place.

  [Splinter stops] 

  Michelangelo : [sheepish]  Oh geez. Sensei, I didn't mean to...

  Splinter : No, Michelangelo, you are right.

  Michelangelo : I am?

  Raphael , Leonardo , Donatello : He is?

  Splinter : You were not fully prepared for what was up there. I trained you to fight as individuals, not as a team, and as your teacher - your father - the responsibility for that is mine. Perhaps in another year, we can try again.

  Donatello : Another year? We don't have another year!

• Splinter : Yes, you must save her.

  Leonardo : I agree, Sensei but in that fight, we weren't exactly a well-oiled machine.

  Michelangelo : Like that robot with the brain thingy.

  Raphael : Give it a rest.

  Splinter : Hmm. If you are to fight more effectively as a unit, you are going to need a leader.

  Leonardo : Can I be the leader?

  Raphael : Why should you be the leader? I kicked your butt. I should be the leader.

  Donatello : Hey, I'm smarter than all you guys put together it should be me.

  Michelangelo : I think it should be me.

  [all stop to look at Mikey] 

  Michelangelo : I don't really have a reason I just think it would be neat.

• Michelangelo : Explain to me one more time what we're doing here.

  Raphael , Leonardo , Donatello : [All groan] 

  Leonardo : Mikey, we've been over this. That building has the same logo as the van that was used to kidnap the family so if we wait long enough, one the kidnappers will eventually show his face and when he does, we'll make him tell us where they took them.

  Michelangelo : And then we got ourselves a van!

  Leonardo : Just hit the guy I tell you to.

  Michelangelo : will do!

  Raphael : Are you sure this is gonna to work?

  Leonardo : Trust me. They'll be here any second.

  Michelangelo : Oh

  Michelangelo : [chuckling] 

  Michelangelo : [snoring] 

  Michelangelo : [yells] 

  Michelangelo : Okay, I'm thinking of something green. Ga-reen. Ga-reen.

  Donatello : Is it Raphael again.

  Michelangelo : Man, you're good at this!

• Donatello : Yeah, look at it logically. There four of us and one of you. What are you going to do?

  Donatello : Yow

  Raphael : whoa.

  Raphael : You have to ask!

  Raphael : He's getting away again!

  Leonardo : No, he's not

  Raphael : whoa!

  [grunts] 

  Raphael : [screams]  Ugh.

  Leonardo : Now we're getting somewhere.

• Michelangelo : Are you talking to your pet turtle?

  Raphael : No! Shut up!

  Michelangelo : That's adorable!

  [Raph chases Mikey] 

  Michelangelo : Ah!
