Episode 260 - The Wasp With a Heart

QR wants me to let everyone know that wasps are evil creatures who should all be destroyed. Considering that bugs in general freak me the hell out, I am TOTALLY OKAY WITH THIS PLAN.

Of course, I also love monsters with a heart of gold episodes, so yay for this!

Still, I'd much rather be talking about alien strippers.

So we open with the wasp prancing around in the flowers and shaking his ass at the camera, when his brother shows up to yell at him for wanting to smell the flowers. He tries to be evil to please his brother.

The professor insists a beehive is an alien pod, even after Skull calls him on it. (QR thinks I should link to My Girl, but I am going to SPARE ALL OF YOU, BECAUSE NO.) Skull starts to yell at the professor when the wasp shows up to skip after them.

Seriously, do bulk and Skull have monster-attraction or something? Cassie is sent to check on the disturbance. The Wasp is REALLY BAD AT THIS, and we get pantsless Bulk, Skull and the Professor.

Cassie fights the stupid wasp, who is like "Why are you fighting me?" and she's all "MONSTER, DUH." He almost manages to beat her, but then his conscience gets the better of him. He doesn't destroy her even when he has the chance, and in exchange, Cassie stops the other Rangers from destroying him.

The wasp dreams about being evil, but he can't hurt an old man. He's very conflicted about this. Ecliptor reminds him that he doesn't have a heart and tells him to attack a birthday party that Cassie is at. Some kid is really upset that Quantrons are letting her balloons go and the wasp feels guilty about it. Cassie gets a pretty nice unmorphed fight, but she's outnumbered by a LOT. The Wasp is told to destroy her, but he can't do it, blasting the Quantrons instead.

Astronema and the Wasp's brother show up and they fight, and Cassie is very concerned for her new wasp boyfriend. First a Phantom, now a wasp - Cassie, honey, TJ is still available. Cassie morphs angrily after glaring daggers at Astronema. Of course, as soon as she morphs, Astronema runs away, and they have to chase after the evil!wasp on their spaceboards while the city gets blown up.

Somehow, Cassie's gun thing is sonar? Or something? She locates it by randomly shooting and then that knocks the evil wasp back to Earth. Evil!Wasp summons bees and this is why I will never be a Ranger, because I would RUN THE HELL AWAY. CREEPY.

Evil!Wasp grows and there's a fight and I got distracted because one of my friends was talking about Amy Jo Johnson's tattoos on flashpoint and also blue rangers, which is WAY more exciting than fight scenes, frankly. The Rangers win.

Cassie bonds with her wasp boyfriend and she tells him that being nice isn't a failure, and he wishes that he was human. The little girl from earlier is still crying, and the wasp starts crying as well. He turns himself into a wasp and flies away, and somehow locates the little girl's balloons. Everyone is sure he'll be good forever, but um, clearly at some point someone will unknowingly KILL HIM.

Because he is a WASP. UGH.

Fish: 2. More wasps then fish this time.
