[Splinter holds off on his anger for a moment. Even if they did go to the surface, they returned with something useful. Something that they needed. However, he cannot allow them to repeat such a journey lest they end up dead.
So, for the moment, he sets aside his cane, takes the offered pillow case of food, and then touches Leo's shell to direct that the small turtle should turn away from the food to be sick. It is food that Splinter cannot risk contamination of, no matter how angry he is.
He will kill you two later. With fatherly love.]
I expected better out of both of you. It is enough that your brothers are ill. You being injured or killed could threaten the survival of our entire family when I would be forced to stop attending to your brothers' illness and instead tend to the consequences of your foolishness.
[Quite simply, he is too tired to be angry. The food is a relief. Yelling at the two will only upset their very sick brothers. So instead of anger, they face something far worse: utter disappointment.]
