At first, the TMNT disliked him because he always wanted to thing his way, but later they finally see him as a team member. After exposure to the Turtles' mutagen, he gained the ability to change into a large yellow mutant with great strength. After the turtles found out a short while later, Carter became a part of the team for the remainder of season nine and the first half of season ten. The Turtles have since then worked to find a cure for Carter's mutation. Carter drove a motorcycle and often companied the TurtleVan. After choosing to return to his previous collage life in season ten, Donatello stabilized Carter's mutation, but on his way out of the city, Carter learned from April O'Neil that she and the Turtles were captured by Lord Dregg, Krang, and The Shredder. After the events in Turtles to the Second Power, Carter decided to travel to the future with the turtles friends Landor and Merrick seeing it as the only way to be fully cured of his mutation.
