01PLOT

It all started with the turtles ready to watch the Tazan the Mummy King, but Splinter forbids them to go until they clean up the kitchen. Donnie somehow got an idea of how he can clean up the lair. He made a serving cleaning robot named S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N who started to clean up the lair. The turtles are quite impressed, including Splinter who doesn’t have to grab some snacks while he gets up in his chair thanks to S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N’s help.

Things started to look well for them until Shelldon started to turn things upside down. He started to play loud techno music, since it’s Don’s favorite, letting Donnie win the racing game by launching Mikey, even forbirds the turtles to eat Donnie’s laces with a robotic vacuum with lasers. Splinter however was appreciated because Shelldon created a flying microwave to heat up some soup for him.

Having trouble sleeping since the loud Techno music played, the turtles tried to find a way to get everything back to normal. Leo then had an idea. Shelldon doesn’t like one of their favorite things so they could rewire him and beat Donnie in his own game.

They start to rewire Shelldon as the robot changed from a polite servant to a radical teen bot. The next day, Donnie looks confused as to why Shelldon behaved like a teen. When he asked Shelldon to make a flavorless juice, he made it and splashed juice all over the softshell and then some water. The three turtles began to laugh hysterically while Donnie scolded what they did to Shelldon. They have no interest as Raph tells Shelldon to stop now. However, Shelldon said that everything is getting started, to get rid of Donnie and hang out with his “real” bros.

Donnie angrily shouted that they messed up his circuitry. Vacuums started to fuse into a giant vacuum and tried to run the turtles over. They escaped the kitchen since the vacuum is too big to go through the door.

Shelldon comforts the turtles and starts to attack them by pinning Leo, Raph and Mikey to the wall with the claws. Donnie gets himself cuffed to a table as Shelldon starts to use a saw to cut the softshell in half.

Raph orders Shelldon to stop unless if he wants to be their fourth brother, he should ask his flying microwave for burritos. Shelldon agrees with him, until Raph throws the microwave at the robot, destroying him and freeing the turtles.

With him destroyed, Raph instructs Donnie to make an invention to clean up the mess in which Donnie will make a new Shelldon which will not play his favorites. At that point, Splinter shows up to chastize the turtles for destroying 'his detective microwave friend', making them try to deny it.

06TRIVIA

This episode, title and premise, is a nod to the 1999 Disney Channel original movie _Smart House_.
S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N.'s joke about ivory-billed woodpeckers going extinct in 1994 is derived from ivory-billed woodpeckers historically being listed as endangered on March 11th, 1967 by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. It was suggested that the species' status be updated to "extinct" in September 2021.
