🧵 Brief Plot Summary
In "Muck Amok Part 1", the loveably grotesque Muckman begins to embrace his new role as a crime-fighting mutant. While he’s gaining confidence and trying to clean up the streets (literally and figuratively), an unexpected threat emerges in the form of a trash-collecting invention by none other than Baxter Stockman. Instead of ridding the city of filth, Stockman's device causes a destructive turn of events that only the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles can confront. Will the green team arrive in time to help Muckman or is the city headed for a smelly disaster? ♻️🐢💥
