Episode 114- A Friend in Need Part 2

Today on Power Rangers- the most exposition-centric episode ever.

Okay, so we start off with the rangers and their new "friends" running into the Cave of Exposition. Barely past the mouth of the cave, Dex determines the air is safe to breath and demorphs. Billy is surprised he's humanoid, but I don't know why he's surprised since they were just fighting these guys. Anyway, all the Edenites have shiny stickers, I mean crystals, stuck on their foreheads. These are MIND CRYSTALS and allow them to communicate visually. For exposition purposes, in this show. Tommy comments on their differences (really Tommy? What the crap?) and then, upon learning the planet is enslaved, Adam asks why they let that happen. Oh Adam, honey, no. Just... no. Don't blame the victims! It's not okay. Really, show, did that NEED to be pointed out to you? If I hadn't had as much beer as is actually in my system, that would have set me right off. *sigh*

We get lots of exposition where Dex tells us all about things I don't give a damn about.

Back in Angel Grove, poor Kim is still sick with the flu (as I am recovering from the flu). Bulk and Skull, in the Youth Center, overhear a hot girl invite her friend to a threesome at Sean's house. I knew a Sean once. He played bagpipes (and was hot). Therefore, in my mind, all boys named Sean are awesome... except for the Shawn that Tanya dates in later seasons, because he was a jerk, but his name was Shawn and not Sean so... Sean still stands as awesome. Anyway! So I approve of these girls and their plan to hang out at Sean's house, regardless of how stupid the girls show themselves to be later. Bulk wants to impress the girls and decides that he and Skull, with his classic good looks, should pretend to know where the Power Rangers will be hanging out and have a loud conversation about it. The girls overhear, proving that it is indeed possible to eavesdrop on a loud conversation in the Youth Center, therefor EVERYBODY probably knows who the Power Rangers are at this point. Said girls fall for it and decide to go find the Power Rangers.

Back on Edenoi we talk some more about things I don't care about for a show that is not Power Rangers, and then they get attacked by the Four Horsemen of the Not Really The Apocalypse, and some freaking adorable little bad guys called cogwarts. They use the same shot for these guys about twenty times. Dex turns back into the Masked Rider and the rangers go back to action and they all fight, except the friends who were very competent in fighting the rangers, but apparently are unable to fight the actual bad guys.

Back in Angel Grove, Finster's monster is ready and gets sent down. Poor ill Kim has to go fight it by herself. She is AWESOME and I give her major credit for fighting while all flu-ridden (seriously, I can't even manage to do the dishes with my flu, I barely make it to work, and she's fighting monsters? You are my sickspiration, Kim).

Is it over yet? There's a part 3? Damn.

3 fish. It wasn't fishy, just outright BAD.

Billy speak: "We were told to assess the situation and report back on your well-being."
