[hide]Summary
Main Plot
Tomas Brod has moved his organized crime operation to New York and has gotten into a turf war with Anthony Dracon. Elisa Maza has been working undercover as "Salli", and has infiltrated Brod's gang, planning to decimate both gangs before one wins the "turf war" and becomes too powerful. A sting operation at Dracon's chop-shop fails when Elisa is knocked unconscious, so she goes to the Trio and Angela for help. Things come to a head when Brod plans to raid the prison where Dracon is being held and kill him. Elisa stops him, revealing herself in the process, but the gargoyles come to the rescue at that moment, and both gangs are put behind bars.
Subplots
The Trio are at odds with each other, squabbling immaturely over Angela, and becoming careless in their duties. Angela grows increasingly agitated, and after some advice from Elisa, finally sets them straight. At the end of the night, The Trio promises to leave Angela alone, but she tells them to just slow down and let things happen in their own time, before giving each suitor a quick kiss and informing them of her fifteen rookery sisters on Avalon.
The Story

- Recaps: ("The Gathering" Part One, "Golem", "Protection")
Act One
A stray cat dodges out of the path of a speeding car on the streets of Manhattan. The car quickly pulls into a garage and Glasses guides it in. As the garage door closes behind the car, Glasses yells for a crew to hurry up and get to work. Several men approach the car with tools and begin disassembling it. As the engine is lifted out, Glasses jokes aloud, "Dracon's House of Auto Parts. The prices are hot and so is the merchandise." The car, one of many in the warehouse, is rapidly being reduced to sellable components.
Meanwhile, high above New York City, the Trio and Angela are on patrol. Brooklyn explains to "Angie" that he patrols the city every night. "It's a dangerous job, but somebody's got to do it," he boasts. Lexington glides forward and brags that he must've foiled a hundred muggings in New York. Then Broadway glides between his rookery brothers and Angela to explain that the real action is in organized crime and the city has been much safer since he sent Tony Dracon to prison. Angela, somewhat unimpressed, tells the Trio that their actions are "very impressive." Her attention is drawn to something flying ahead of them and she asks if such a sight is typical. Lexington identifies it as a Cyberbiotics hovercraft and then uses the opportunity to tell Angela that he once flew a helicopter. Ignoring him, Angela tells her companions that she has seen one like that before – and she didn't like its owner either. She dives to follow the craft and the others follow. The hovercraft arrives at Glasses's warehouse and ropes are dropped down to the roof. Three humans descend from the craft. One, a blonde female, approaches the roof door and kicks it open. Seeing nothing inside, she motions for her companions to join her. Suddenly, Pal Joey appears from behind some nearby machinery and fires a rocket at the woman! She dodges, but the blast destroys the roof entrance and throws the woman down hard. Another man from the Hovercraft is revealed to be Tomas Brod. Looking at the unconscious woman, he jokes to his companion, Jack Dane, that "that is why I never go in first." He fires a gas canister at Pal Joey and it bursts open and releases a green gas. Pal Joey starts coughing and then passes out. Several more humans descend from the hovercraft wearing gas masks and join Dane and Brod (who also don gas masks) at the hole in the roof. Dane wonders what they should do about the blonde woman and Brod tells him to let her sleep as they have other things to do. He fires another gas canister down into the building and he and his team descend into the warehouse. In the room below, Glasses and his men have armed themselves and are watching the stairway with roof access. Green gas is pouring through the door. The door is suddenly flung open and several more gas canisters bounce down into the room. Glasses and his men start coughing and running away while Brod's people begin firing weapons throughout the garage. They are causing as much damage as they can to as many cars and parts as possible. Glasses and one of his men run to dodge the bullets and dive into a car that Glasses explains is bulletproof. As they close the door, bullets hit the glass windows, but don't make it through. The voice of Captain Maria Chavez comes across a bullhorn. The NYPD have the building surrounded! Brod, alarmed, calls for a retreat and he and his men race back up to the roof. Outside, Chavez, Matt Bluestone, and many police officers are gathered. Chavez orders the building's occupants to put down their weapons and come out of the building peacefully. Instead, the bulletproof car rams through the garage door and escapes through the police barricades as officers fire on it to no effect. The car races down the street. Meanwhile, on the roof, Brod hurries his people back into the hovercraft. He picks up the still-unconscious blonde woman and grabs on to the hovercraft's rope ladder. The hovercraft makes its escape and is also fired at by the NYPD. Chavez tells her people to hold their fire as they watch the two vehicles escape. Also watching the escape are Angela and the Trio. Broadway tells the others that's his cue and Lexington, annoyed, brushes him aside. Brooklyn, assuming command, starts giving orders and the other three listen to him. Two will follow the car, two will follow the hovercraft. He tells "Angie" to join him and the two depart. Lex and Broadway give each other a glance and then begin to follow, ignoring Brooklyn's orders. As they catch up, Brooklyn is annoyed. Broadway asks why he gets to go with Angela and the beaked gargoyle explains that he is second-in-command. Lexington accuses him of abusing his power. Brooklyn shoves Lex aside and the two begin a scuffle midair. They collide with Broadway and soon all three are physically and verbally fighting. Angela notices something ahead. She tries to warn her companions, but they are too engaged with their argument. Angela veers to the side just as the Trio spot a brick chimney right in their flightpath. Unable to stop or avoid it, all three of them slam into the building and fall to a roof below. Angela lands near them and explains that she tried to warn them. "Thanks," the rookery brothers say in unison.
The hovercraft flies over the city. Inside, the blonde woman wakes up and asks her companions what happened. Brod explains that her plan worked – until the police showed up! The woman is angry. Someone must've told the police. Dane explains that he wouldn't have come out of retirement just to turn into a rat. He joined because he sees Brod as tough enough to break the Dracon Family hold on the the New York turf. Brod adds that none of the men he brought from Prague would betray him. The woman scoffs and sarcastically quips, "well, then I guess it was me." Brod laughs. This is why he likes her. Dane guesses that Dracon's people must have been careless and led the police to the warehouse. Brod says that this explanation will do. For now.
At the Clock Tower, the Trio are arguing about their failure to catch either vehicle as Angela looks out on to the city. Each of the rookery brothers attempt to put the blame on to the others. Angela ignores this and tells them that it is almost dawn and Goliath, Hudson, and Bronx still have not returned from patrol. Broadway walks over to her and tries to comfort her by explaining that they've all been caught away from home at sunrise. "But how many of us have turned to stone in mid-air!" Lexington snidely quips. Broadway shoves Lex to the ground, and points out that he was being chased by a Macbeth Robot at the time. Brooklyn gets between his quarreling brothers to stop the "muttonheads" from fighting, but he only gets pulled into shoving match himself. As they continue to bicker, the Sun rises and all four gargoyles turn to stone.
Later that morning, at Rikers Island, Glasses talks with Tony Dracon through the glass visitation window. He explains that Brod has done a lot of damage and is muscling in on Dracon's territory. Dracon is ready to engage in a full on turf war and Glasses asks for orders. Dracon yells for Glasses to hit Brod's crew and hit them hard. Message received, Glasses exits.
Two police cars are parked in from of a restaurant. Inside, Brod, Dane, the blonde woman, and another gangster are eating at a table while being questioned by Matt Bluestone. The detective wants to know where Brod was during the raid on Dracon's chop shop the previous night. Brod pretends not to know what a chop shop is and then explains that he and his companions were at the restaurant the previous night until very late. The others agree with him, leaving Bluestone annoyed.
That evening, at the 23rd Precinct house below the Clock Tower, Brod and the blonde woman are brought in for further questioning. Bluestone pulls Brod into a room to "converse" away from the blonde woman. Brod tells him that it is a waste of time since "Salli" will only tell the police the exact same story. Bluestone tells "Salli" to have a seat while Brod accompanies him. The woman sits for a moment before some police officers bring a man into the room who soon begins angrily yelling and throwing a fit. Several police officers move to help subdue the man and "Salli" uses the distraction to slip away unnoticed. The woman slips into a broom closet and avoids notice from several police officers while sighing in relief. Outside, the Sun sets and the Trio and Angela awaken from their stone sleep. As they move into their Clock Tower home, "Salli" has ascended the stairs into the large room as well. The woman looks up at the four gargoyles as they look at her with alarm. "Uh oh," says Brooklyn, "We've got a problem . . ."
Act Two
The Trio and Angela look down upon the unknown blonde woman. The woman pauses for a moment, smiles, and then removes her blonde wig. It is Elisa! "Surprise!" she tells her young friends. The gargoyles are stunned for a moment before all three of the Trio begin gloating to each other how they knew it was Elisa the whole time. Angela continues to be unimpressed by their antics. Lexington asks Elisa why she is wearing a disguise and Broadway correctly guesses that Elisa is undercover. Elisa then asks Angela if she remembers Thomas Brod, and Angela confirms that she does remember the gangster and did recognize his hovercraft. The detective explains to the four of them that Brod has moved his operations to New York. Elisa has infiltrated his gang and the police are working to take him down as well as Dracon's people. Brooklyn, pushing Lexington aside, boasts that Elisa must want him to help out. Elisa, uncertain, points out that it is hard to check in with her partner, Matt Bluestone, but the gargoyles can follow her to places that the police can't go. Quick to jump on this opportunity to impress Angela, the Trio begins bragging about their abilities and literally flexing their muscles. "Uh, thanks," replies Elisa. She turns to head back into the police station before she is missed. On her way out, Angela runs over to her and asks if the "friendliness" of the boys is how they always are. Elisa, seeing the situation now, explains to Angela that it has been a long time since the others have been around an attractive female gargoyle. She advises Angela to tell the others how she expects to be treated. Angela is uncertain, but says no more as Elisa returns to work.
Elisa is in the office of her boss, Captain Chavez. She is annoyed that after weeks of planning they can't bust anybody from either side of the turf war. Chavez explains that since Elisa was out cold during the raid, lawyers would have no problems tearing down her testimony. Elisa asks her Captain if she can stick around with Brod a little longer in the hopes that one side or the other makes a move to attack their foe. Chavez tells her no. It is too dangerous. Elisa presses her point. If one side wins the turf war, they will become too powerful to control. This is their best opportunity to decimate both sides. Chavez stops to consider this.
Nearby, Brod exits an interrogation room. "So glad we had this chance to chat," he says sarcastically to Bluestone who follows him out. Down the hall, Chavez's door opens and "Salli" exits with the Captain. Elisa and Chavez both put up an act for Brod's benefit. "Salli" appears to be annoyed with the Captain and Chavez tells her that if she keeps it up she'll find herself in a holding pen. She shoves "Salli" at Brod and tells him to leave and to "take this trash" with him. Brod smiles and he and "Salli" depart.
One of Brod's men pulls up in a car outside the precinct house as Brod and "Salli" exit. The Trio and Angela watch from high above as the two step into the car and pull away. Brooklyn announces his plan: He and "Angie" will follow the car while Broadway and Lexington stay home to await Goliath. As Brooklyn and Angela depart, Lex angrily tells Broadway that their rookery brother is "doing it again". They launch themselves to follow Brooklyn and Angela. Catching up, Broadway tells Brooklyn that "this is too important for you to handle alone." Seeing where this is going, Angela quickly stops them all and reminds them that Elisa is counting on them. No more fighting. The Trio all rigorously deny that they were ever fighting. Angela remains quietly annoyed.
Brod's car pulls up to his favorite restaurant. The window is rolled down and Brod and "Salli" are shocked to see the restaurant is in flames! Jack Dane approaches the car and explains that Dracon hit them all over town. Their operations have taken serious damage. Brod is furious at the destruction of the restaurant. Dane informs Brod and "Salli" that there is a rumor that Dracon has a train coming in to town tonight that is bearing weapons. Brod orders him to prepare his hovercraft. This is war now! He intends to hit the train and then destroy the rest of Dracon's organization with the weapons they steal. Elisa glances at a nearby payphone, but is unable to arrange to call for backup before Brod pulls her into the car. They depart as the restaurant continues to burn.
Later that night, Dracon's train enters the city on a track alongside a river. Brod's hovercraft intercepts it and several ropes are dropped down. Brod, "Salli", and two more of Brod's men descend down to the train's roof. They make their way to the rear and descend the ladder. They open the train's rear door and charge in only to discover empty seats. "Salli" wonders why Dracon would be carrying weapons on a passenger train. Brod points out that Dracon is clever. "You got that right!" calls out Glasses who was hiding behind one of the seats. He and several other of Dracon's gang reveal themselves and begin firing their guns at Brod's crew. The two gangs both take cover among the seats as a fire fight ensues. "Salli" advises her side to return to the hovercraft. She shoots out the overhead lights which plunges the train car into darkness and allows Brod's gang to escape. They leave the way they came. While running along the train car's roof, they are narrowly missed by gunfire from below: Dracon's men are shooting at them through the train car's ceiling! As they near the ropes dangling from the hovercraft, Glasses climbs on to the roof holding a rocket launcher. He takes aim at the craft and fires. The hovercraft turns to dodge as the projectile nearly hits it and explodes. The hovercraft is undamaged, but is driven off temporarily: Brod's people are stranded. Dracon's men climb on to the train's roof and with weapons drawn, Pal Joey explains to Brod that there is no way out, the turf war is over, and he has lost. As Pal Joey takes aim, Angela swoops in, and suddenly shoves him off the train and into the water below. The Trio follows her lead and soon only Glasses remains of Dracon's gang. Brod is shocked. He explains that he fought "creatures" like these in Prague and wonders why they are helping him now. "Salli" quips that perhaps they hate Dracon more. Above, Brooklyn gloats about his attack of Dracon's crew to Angela. "That's nothing," says Broadway, " Watch me take on the hovercraft!" Lexington calls him a slowpoke and makes it a race, diving towards Brod's vehicle. Angela pleads with him to wait, but Lex ignores her. Inside the hovercraft, one of Brod's people takes aim at Lexington with the ship's primary weapon. The laser cannon fires and Lexington is hit. He falls from the sky, but before he can hit the ground, Angela dives down to rescue him. Unfortunately, another laser blast hits them both and they fall down on to the rail tracks below. Angela and Lexington slowly recover and glance up only to see the train barreling towards them at high speed!
Act Three
The train blares its horn as it barrels towards Angela and Lexington. At the last possible moment, Brooklyn and Broadway swoop down and grab their companions from the train tracks. From the roof of the train car, Brod's gang and Glasses watch the gargoyles escape. Glasses turns to leave as well. Before he can go far, Brod points a gun at him and tells him not to move. Glasses, throwing down his weapon, points out how meaningless killing him is. Glasses explains that there are many that will rise to take his place given that the Dracon Family has owned New York for three generations. Brod muses that if there are no more Dracons then he could take over. "Whatever!" says Glasses who then quickly turns and leaps from the train and drops down into the water far below. One of Brod's men implores his leader to go back for Glasses, but Brod calmly explains that he is not the problem. The hovercraft moves in over the train to retrieve Brod, his gang, and "Salli".
On a nearby rooftop, Brooklyn and Broadway are tending to Angela and Broadway reassures her of her safety as Lexington slowly recovers alone nearby. Brooklyn gets in Broadway's face and tells him to back off, "I'm the one who rescued her!" Lexington weakly asks his brothers if Angela is all right and they turn their irritation on to him. They point out that this is all Lexington's fault. Lex cockily points out that he can't help it if they can't keep up with "Angie and me." That remark irritates boh Brooklyn and Broadway and the three rookery brothers once more resume their immature bickering. Angela watches on in disgust. Finally, she's had enough. She yells at the Trio to stop and points out that while they are fighting, Brod's hovercraft has escaped. She goes on to angrily point out that they are acting like hatchlings. "The winner does not get to keep me! Now, let's go!" She launches herself off of the rooftop in pursuit of Brod. The Trio, humbled, watch her leave. Brooklyn somberly points out that Elisa needs their help and the three of them take off after Angela. Lexington beckons "Angie" to wait for them. Still annoyed, Angela yells at them once more, "Stop calling me Angie!!!" The three male gargoyles quickly agree to call her Angela from now on.
Not far ahead, Brod's hovercraft flies over the city. Inside, Brod points out that he has made a mistake. They've only been fighting the body of Dracon's organization when they should've gone for its head. "Salli" scoffs. Dracon is in jail and they can't just break into a maximum security prison. Brod motions to a pile of heavy weaponry and asks, "Why not?" Elisa, still in disguise, points out that they wouldn't even know where to look for Dracon and Jack Dane quickly points out that "The bum's in Cell Block D!" Brod laughs. This is going to be easy.
Not long after, the hovercraft approaches Rikers Island penitentiary. A guard in a watchtower is shocked to see its arrival. He begins to radio in the problem as the hovercraft takes aim. The guard jumps from the tower as a powerful blast destroys his post! Another laser blast fires on the main building's roof. Inside the prison, alarms are blaring and guards are running to address this incursion. Tony Dracon, still in his cell, demands to know what is going on. He didn't order a breakout! On the roof above, Brod, "Salli", and Brod's men have left the hovercraft. Standing on the roof around the blasted hole with gas masks on, they throw smoke bombs down into the cell block below. The guards inside hack and cough and eventually pass out. Dane leaps down into the prison followed by Brod and one of Brod's men from Prague. Elisa shakes her head in disbelief at the situation. As Dane grabs an unconscious guard's keys, Brod beckons "Salli" to join them. "It's time to cut off the head!" Elisa can't believe she is going to risk her neck to protect Dracon. She jumps down into the prison and follows the others. Dane uses the keys to open the door to Cell Block D. Brod asks him if that is the only way in and Dane tells him yes. Brod fires a laser weapon at the lock. "Not anymore!" They continue moving.
Meanwhile, the gargoyles have arrived at the prison. Brooklyn tells his companions that it is time for some teamwork. The door to the hovercraft opens and one of Brod's men begins firing a gun at the gargoyles. As they dodge the bullets, Angela tells the others to keep him distracted: she knows another way in. She dives below the hovercraft and Brooklyn order Lexington to "give her a hand". The two gargoyles land on the belly of the craft and use their talons to rip open the bottom doors. As the gunman continues to fire at Brooklyn and Broadway, Angela and Lex sneak into the craft. Lex comes up behind the human and shoves him out the door. He falls with a scream, but Broadway catches him before he falls in the East River. Broadway tells the struggling man that he isn't won't get off that easy before dropping him on the prison roof and into the custody of some guards stationed there. The hovercraft's pilot, watching this unfold, leaves the pilot's seat and activates an electrified weapon before moving aft. He charges at Lex and Angela and swings wildly with his glowing weapon. The gargoyles dodge and Angela uses her tail to knock the man over on top of his own weapon. The man yells in pain as he is electrocuted and then goes still. The two gargoyles begin to approach him, but suddenly are thrown off as the hovercraft, pilotless, begins to veer and dive downward. Lexington drops into the pilot's seat and begins tapping buttons rapidly, but the hovercraft continues its dive. Angela is incredulous that he can't stabilize the craft, "I thought you flew a helicopter!" Lexington sheepishly explains that before being able to fly the helicopter he "kinda crashed it . . ." Brooklyn, concerned, watches as the hovercraft dives towards the ground. Shortly before impact, Lexington and Angela, carrying the unconscious pilot, abandon the craft safely. The hovercraft impacts the prison yard and explodes!
Inside, inmates are yelling from their cells at all of the chaos. Tony Dracon is standing at his cell door and is alarmed when Brod and his crew suddenly arrive before him. As Brod smiles at him, Dracon calls for the guards' aid. Brod points out that the guards are busy right now. Outside, we see that the guards are indeed struggling to put out the fire from the crashed hovercraft and restraining Dracon's men that the gargoyles battled. Brod points a gun at Dracon and remarks that it is like shooting a fish in a barrel. "Salli" screams for him to stop and shoves him to the ground. She picks up Brod's weapon to defend herself, but is grabbed by Dane first. Dracon looks at her and smiles. "Nice to see you again, Sugar." Brod, recovering, wonders how Dracon knows "Salli". Dracon tells him that he should've checked her references better. He snatches off her wig and introduces Brod to "Detective Elisa Maza, NYPD." Elisa snidely tells Dracon that prison suits him. Brod is angry and tells Dracon to watch as he "practices" on Elisa. He pulls back his fist to hit Elisa but is stopped by Brooklyn who throws the man aside. The other gargoyles land nearby and Elisa shoves off Jack Dane. Another of Brod's gang aims a gun at Elisa, but is tackled to the ground by Lexington. Dracon reaches through the bars for a dropped weapon and uses it to destroy the lock on his cell. Kicking the door open he announces that he would love to battle with Brod, but first he needs to "exterminate these bats!" Brod also picks up a weapon and tells Dracon that he will crush him, "but first the reptiles!" The two men begin firing on the gargoyles who launch themselves into open air of the cell block. Brooklyn jokes that these boys just can't play nice. Broadway agrees that they should take away their toys. Broadway and Lex dive at Dracon and restrain and disarm him while Brooklyn and Angela do the same for Brod. They have won! Elisa, already at work cuffing all of the men, thanks the gargoyles but tells them they should head out before the guards arrive.
Shortly thereafter, the guards do arrive at Tony's cell to discover that he, Brod, Dane, and Brod's other man are all tied up as Elisa stands over them with her badge on display. She tells the guards that she has some new inmates for them who were messing with her turf.
Dawn is approaching the Clock Tower as the Trio and Angela return home. They all land besides Goliath, Hudson, and Bronx who have all returned as well. Broadway looks at Angela and apologizes for their behavior. Brooklyn agrees that they were all acting like jerks and Lexington tells her that from now on they will just back off. Angela smiles and tells them not to back off, just slow down. She explains that she likes all three of them, but if something is going to happen between them, it'll happen in its own time. She steps forward and gives each of them a kiss on the cheek. She goes on to explain that she isn't the last female gargoyle on Earth: she has fifteen rookery sisters on Avalon! The Trio all smile at each other giddily. "So," Brooklyn quips to Goliath, "When do we get our world tour?" Goliath smiles at his Second as the Sun rises and they all turn to stone.
Footsteps move down the hall in a Rikers Island cell block. Inside each cell that they pass are Dracon and Brod's men. Both sides of the turf war are imprisoned. The footsteps arrive at Dracon's cell and a guard explains that the antics of last night cost Dracon his private cell privileges. The guard opens Dracon's cell and shoves his new roommate inside: it is Tomas Brod! The two inmates glare at each other angrily as the guard closes the cell door and jokes that he hopes "they'll be real happy together!" Brod and Dracon begin a fist fight as the Sun shines down on the prison.

Continuity
Jack Dane from "Revelations" returns to become a member of Tomas Brod's gang (he should probably have stayed in the Witness Relocation Program), apparently out of hostility towards Tony Dracon and his family.
There are several allusions to past episodes here, including not only "Protection" (with Broadway proudly boasting about how he helped put Dracon behind bars) and "Golem" (with the return of Brod and his hovercraft – though how he recovered it is not explained), but also "Her Brother's Keeper" (Lexington recalls his flying the Pack's helicopter) and "The Price" (Broadway's turning to stone in midair during the battle with a Macbeth Robot are also mentioned).
According to Greg Weisman, the events in "Vendettas" and "Turf" took place more or less simultaneously (see the Timeline for further details), indicating that Goliath and Hudson's absence was due to their fight with Wolf and Hakon's ghost. This doesn't explain Bronx's absence, however. Greg hints that the gargoyle beast was having an adventure of his own at the time. [1]
Tidbits
Elisa's alias of "Salli" is another in-joke; she was voiced by Salli Richardson.
Brooklyn calling Lexington and Broadway "muttonheads" is a reference to The Three Stooges, which is fitting given their antics in the episode.
Brooklyn's question to Goliath, "So when do we get our world tour?" was intended to foreshadow the TimeDancer spin-off. (Like Goliath in "Future Tense", Brooklyn really should learn to be careful about what he asks for.)
Though Lexington is as eager at pursuing Angela in this episode as Brooklyn and Broadway are, in fact (again according to Greg Weisman), he's actually gay – a revelation that would be handled very carefully in the series under Greg's direction. Presumably, Lex must not have realized this at the time of "Turf"; it does help to explain, though, why he wasn't as upset as Brooklyn was in "The Journey" when it became clear that Angela had chosen Broadway.
Toon Disney/Disney XD Edits
