|
Joel hangsout with his little buddy Simon, who shows him all of the things he has invented. |
|
Olympius reveals his latest plan - to send an asteroid hurling towards Mariner Bay. |
|
|
|
After Joel leaves, Simon discovers the asteroid on his high powered telescope. |
|
Joel arriveslate to the Aquabase, and hides flowers he brought for Ms. Fairweather behind his back. |
|
|
|
Joel gets a call onhis morpher from Simon, who hacked into the frequency. He shows Joel his findings. |
|
After a tremendous amount ofeffort, Joel and Simon make Ms. F aware of the impending danger. |
|
|
|
The Rangers form the Lightspeed Solarzord, and charge up on some rays to blast the asteroid out of the sky. |
|
Olympius has other plans however, and he shows up on the scene to create a force field which blocks out the sun. |
|
|
|
The Rangers head down and blast Olympius with the Battle Boosters to try and take the force field down. |
|
Ms. F tells them there is no time - they must stop the attack and head back to initiate the Omega Project. |
|
|
|
The Max Solardzord takes the Supertrain into space. |
|
Oncein space, the Omega Zords are deployed from the train. |
|
|
|
The combine and form the Omega Crawler, which mounts the asteroid and places two explosives. |
|
Before they can take off, the asteroid comes to life and grabs a hold of the Omega Crawler. |
|
|
|
To escape, it transforms into the Omega Megazord, which jabs its spear into the ground, detonating the explosives. |
|
Everyone at the Aquabase watchesin horror as the asteroid explodes, believing the Rangers to have been killed in the explosion. |
|
|
|
But they haven't! The Zords safely fly out of the blast, as Carter reports that everything is ok. |
|
Joel's plan to have Simon ask Ms. F out on a date with him backfires, when Simon asks her out with himself! |
Comments: |
- When Joel asked Simon to ask Ms. F out, I also got the impression that he meant for a date with Simon, not with Joel.
- As with most Zord introduction episodes, the special effects and action were top notch. The scene with the Omega Megazord standing there as the asteroid blew up around it was awesome.
- I don't know about the name "Omega Megazord", it sounds redundant.
- Aside from the well done action, there was also well done comedy - the Joel/Ms. F scenes are getting better all the time.
- I find it really hard to believe that Simon could really be that smart.
