Episode[]

A Boulanger takes a pan of pastries from the oven and when she stands up, she sees Leonardo. The Boulanger exclaims in surprise. Leonardo, wearing a monocle, a beret, and fake mustache, tries to pull off a fake French accent. He comments on the flavor of the pastry shop’s macaroons. Still wearing a shocked looked, the Boulanger asks if he is an American turtle. Leo chuckles awkwardly and says no.

Michelangelo appears next to him wearing a beret, fake mustache, and striped shirt. He points at pastries in the display and asks why the chocolate croissants the crescent shape. Then he sees the way the Boulanger is looking at him and says a couple of words in French. Raphael walks up and asks Leo if they’re going to the Eiffel Tower next. He also sports a fake mustache and a thin soul patch beard, along with a tripod hat. He proceeds to tell Leo that he wants to see the Eiffel Tower and that this isn't going to be like when they went to Egypt and never even saw the pyramids.

Donatello arrives to correct him, saying that actually, they were in Alexandria and the pyramids were on the other side of the country. Don is dressed like a French maid. Raph insists that they are not going to miss seeing the Eiffel Tower and then Mikey says he wants to see Notre-Dame. He tells the others that he’s going to ring the bell and then calls out “Sanctuary!”

Leo tries to cover by acting surprised at seeing giant turtles and asking where they came from. He says that’s very weird for him, an ordinary French person. The Boulanger finally faints and Leo sighs before telling his brothers that they are so bad at this.
