Episode 314 - Heir to the Throne

It's a Trakeena episode! I'm looking forward to this.

So Daddy Bug is not happy that Trakeena has run away. Frankly, I don't blame her for leaving. Her father loves her and misses her, yes, but he was going to force something on her that she didn't want. Not like cleaning-your-room something, but a lifelong completely altering physical change. That's not cool, Daddy Bug! Poor Trakeena doesn't quite know where to go or what to do, so currently she's just wandering a desert.

In the same saloon we saw in PRiS, Trakeena finally finds relief. She needs a drink and all the males oogle her, but she will have none of it. She's not terribly good at the whole fighting thing, but she's trying! Her spoiled rich girl side is showing, but I have to give her credit for not giving up or taking crap. They throw her out, but Villemax (he looks like a big zipper) steps in to help her. Because that's no way to treat a lady. She doesn't really want his help but he manages to insult her into it. All she wants is to remain as she is and rule by her father's side, and Villemax says he'll help her learn to fight so she can.

He manages to break her of her spoiled rich girl attitude and teaches her to fight in the most awesome learn-to-fight-in-five-minutes montage ever! Nevermind it actually takes years and years and years of grueling practice, but hey, it's a tv show. And she's pretty awesome! It's a great training montage, where he makes her angry and her anger fuels her passion to learn and and and!

On Terra Venture, bad guys are trying to blow up the ship. The Power Rangers intervene, per usual, and rush to the tower the bad guys are going to blow up. But it's a trap! Deviot uses this plot to trick Scorpius into thinking Trakeena is on Terra Venture, held prisoner by the Power Rangers. Scorpius wants his daughter back, so he decides to go himself. He fights the rangers and he is actually pretty badass. He doesn't even have to MOVE. He just sits there and is all "I will put you in your place with my crazy long tentacles". AND HE DOES. They call out the Fish of Orion and there are explosions and they totally blew up Scorpius! Poor Scorpius. He died not knowing if his daughter is okay or not (although I'm pretty sure he's not really dead... that was way too easy).

Trakeena, all strong and fast and powerful, goes back to Onyx and teaches a lesson to the guys who fought her before. She took a few extra minutes to show off, because she's awesome, and then learns of her father's injuries. Villemax wants to escort her, because clearly he's in love with her, but Kegler is all worried about staying long. Scorpius is in pretty bad shape and tells Deviot to enter the cocoon. Trakeena shows up just in time! She and her father have a wonderful heart to heart and both apologize for their wrongdoings. Her father then passes all his power to her and dies, with his daughter by his side. GUYS! I AM SAD! I AM SAD ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT WAS WELL WRITTEN AND EMOTIONAL AND SHE'S GOING TO MISS HER DADDY SO MUCH AND I AM LEGITIMATELY UPSET BY HIS DYING! One of his tentacles turns into a staff with a spider in amber at the end. Deviot tells her the Red Ranger did this to Scorpius and she wants revenge.

Back on Terra Venture, the rangers are lounging in a lovely picnic. Damon wants Kai to teach him how to "cook". A butterfly tells Maya that Scorpius is dead, but somebody more evil has taken his place. Duh duh duh!!!!!!

1 fish! ONE. SINGLE. FISH. Because Trakeena is AWESOME.
