He slipped on the floor and almost fell as he landed, which didn't stop him from continuing to practice his Ninja Turtle strikes on his way to the bathroom. He brushed his teeth with his Ninja Turtle toothbrush and rinsed his mouth out with water from a Ninja Turtle cup. "Muuum, Daaaaad! It's time to open my present!"
