Major visual clues that stood out as tied to the Turtle’s identity have included a surfboard, cooking burgers at a grill, a fire alarm, a baseball bat, bubbles, a blow-up guitar, cologne, a gavel, an arrow, a journal with a queen’s crown on it, a baseball glove, a bag tag that says “Never Keep Open This Bag,” the number 914, a queen piece on a life-sized chess board, and chips with apple salsa.

The Turtle says he is known for not just one thing. He has also revealed that at the start of his career he was “surrounded by other hungry newcomers,” but he “watched as many stars burnt too brightly too quickly.” This suggests he became a star at a young age.

The Turtle called competing on the show “an opportunity to break out of my shell,” adding that “People have always expected me to act a certain way.”

The Turtle said he was voted “Most Likely to Hunt for Booty” in the Masked Academy, and getting in trouble at school has been referenced in past clue packages.

During the Turtle’s episode 13 clue package, he said “I always put myself in last place.” “Full-package entertainer” and “check-mate” were key phrases in episode 13, emphasizing the Turtles on-stage skills as a performer.

In the Turtle’s quarterfinals clue package, he said being the Turtle makes him feel “like a superhero,” giving him time to work on himself “and become stronger.” He also said that “We’ve all had demons to battle.”

A green mop, wedding topper, and poker chips were stand-out visual clues in the package, as well a Turtle-themed riff on Batman’s bat signal, yet another comic book reference.

The Turtle told the panelists he was apprehensive about performing on the show for fear of exposing his weaknesses as a performer. For his bonus clue, the item pulled out of the package “borrowed” from his front steps was a “dead body” dressed in a blue plaid shirt. The Turtle teased to the panelists that “This clue should send you in the right direction.”
