Nah...Mike was trying to push his way in, when they were listening to
Splinter on the Shell Cell...so Raph shoved him away. Mike got goofy with
the "Did he mention me?", Raph shoved him again (Don & Leo also reacted to
Mike's comment).  At the van, as you commented, Mike was tormenting Raph.
One gets the impression that this isn't the first time Mike's done this sort
of thing, either.

That, to me, was one of the best moments of the show.  Splinter wouldn't
tell the guys to jump down a hole, if it was dangerous; Leo &  Don had
already jumped down, so it must have been fairly safe.  Raph was just
displaying a little bit of a playful side by pushing Mikey...sort of a "get
even" kinda thing.  I don't  think Raph thought he was endangering Mike.

> Perhaps I just don't agree with pushing people down a hole *Shrugs*

Maybe I'm just trying to defend Raph, for some reason ;-)
