Jon goes business casual during TMNT Shellcast #043: Corporate Raiders from Dimension X from season 3 episode 25 of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987 tv series.
In the tv episode, the Turtles discover that corporate executives are being kidnapped, causing a pizza shortage. Motivated by personal stakes, they recruit Casey Jones to infiltrate Octopus Inc., the suspected conglomerate. Uncovering a mind control plot, they thwart Shredder's plan to use brainwashed employees to raise the Technodrome for world domination, ultimately saving the day and earning gratitude from the company president.
