“I may still toy with you before I dispose of you, but then again I may not!”
– Goldar, not as experienced in prison banter as he’d make you believe.

The Rangers start battling Tommy because they get their shit together, but Tommy shows that he has his OWN Robot Godzilla. He calls Robot Godzilla with a Flute and then they all fight like normal.

The Rangers get their shit together and start battling Tommy and, because they’re smart, they call out the Megazord. But…um…hello? How can you form the Megazord if you don’t have Jason? You’re missing a whole big chunk of Zord body.

Back at the Command Center, Billy’s gotten shit working again (kind of) and the other Rangers were able to track down the Green Ranger. They’re all mopey because they can’t find Jason, because they’re supper whipped, and they don’t want to go into battle without him.

You're Excused
Tommy: Newsflash Kimberly: you are not the center of everyone's universe.
Kimberly: Well excuse me for living.

“All I know for sure is I’d like to get my hands on this guy!”
– Jason, just let the guy battle already!

“Man I wish I knew who this green guy was. I can’t get him off my mind!”
– Jason, still really battling!

– Jason, battling.

The Rangers are all reeling in the Command Center, trying to figure out what the hell they’re going to do with themselves now that Zordon is lost and Alpha has a virus and whatever. I’d be getting all emo right now if my tube master had been destroyed too.

Episode 1x18: Green With Evil Pt. 2, Jason's...
Obviously, the end of the last episode left everybody in shambles. Like…imagine a bunch of zombies shambling around, but now imagine that it’s worse and they’re teens with attitude. Remember last episode when Tommy and Jason faced off in that karate sport battle? I think that’s probably going to come back in this episode, because somebody has to pay off that dramatic tension...

Episode 1x17 Post Mortem
Well there, I watched it for a second time. I got through it, even the last ten minutes when it stops being about the Green Ranger for awhile, I got through it all. Now I’m back on track! This post mortem has nothing to do with the episode, but more about my complete and total collapse of focus for the past month or so. I’m really dropping the ball here, almost as though Rita...

“I think we’ve only made it through Round 1 of what’s about to be a...”
– Jason, and yeah, I agree with you, it’s going to be at least another hour of my life’s worth of battle. Who am I kidding, I CHOSE TO DO THIS.

NO, IT'S A CD-ROM
Kimberly: What's wrong with Alpha?
Billy: Someone must have fed a virus into his databanks.

“Yeah, it’s gonna be stylin’ after Zack’s Wax.”
– Zack, while cleaning that flying nerd car Billy made. Jason seemed to question the concept of Zack’s wax, but it was dismissed pretty quickly. As it should be.

So the Green Ranger did a number on the Command Center…he took out Alpha AND he punched a circuit panel until Zordon got disconnected from his holotube or whatever. It’s all been pretty on-point in terms of things like storytelling and progression. Then Rita sent Goldar to Earth and made him the giant monster of the episode. Likely because we have ten more minutes left and they...

“Will you PLEASE take this opportunity to recharge while I place myself into a...”
– Zordon, being a sassy bitch to Alpha.

According to the rules Rita just laid out, Tommy can now gain access to the Command Center because he’s a Ranger, so his mission is to go in there and disable Zordon. That seems like an easy security fix at the Command Center. Have a passcode or like…a 4 digit pin that the Rangers have to enter to get in. Or a retina scan. Fingerprint. Lot of different things really. Anything...

“Hey, you want to get together with some of us after school? Nothing major, just...”
– Kimberly, getting all nasty with double coded sex talk. “Get together.” “Hang out.” “Youth Center.” To translate, all three of those mean fisting.

“In Karate, it is the dignity and spirit with which you compete that is the most...”
– Trini, not realizing that bonuses are actually the most important. If somebody had had a bonus, they could have won and gotten a trophy! It’s a sham! Who keeps the trophy?!

After a couple more kicks and some more points, the match ends in a draw. No winner. Not a single goddamned winner. Karate is like youth league soccer in that it’s low scoring and there are no winners or losers and also nobody gives a shit.

Of course, Rita has spotted him because she has a Jump Kick detector or something, and decides that he’d make a great Green Ranger. It, apparently, is a given that the Green Ranger is someone she gets to pick and will thus be evil. Also, if you have your pick of the whole Earth, maybe pick a non-teenager.
