Appropriate icon is appropriate!
So Deviot is still pissed because he doesn't get the cocoon, since Trakeena is having it locked away. She says she's powerful enough without it, but she should keep it around just in case. Trakeena is having a flashback to the events of last episode, with Leo killing her dad, and the tearful goodbye she had with her dad. Villemax is all "Hey, found the Red Ranger" and Trakeena demands that he be brought to her, so she can kill him slowly and painfully.
In some really dusty place on Trakeena's ship, Deviot is busy being angry, and then he hires some monsters to take out Trakeena. Kegler interrupts telling Deviot that Trakeena wants him to help Villemax.
AND THEN I GET DISTRACTED BECAUSE LEO AND KAI ARE SPARRING WITH SWORDS AND HIIIIIII. (Seriously, I have a ton of icons from this episode.) Sadly, instead of getting another 15 minutes of them sparring, Villemax interrupts to try and get Leo, and we get a fun instamorph. It's a pretty great fight scene! Kai manages to call for backup, but he gets blasted in the process. Then Deviot shows up and takes Kai hostage, and the other Rangers are ALREADY IN CHAINS. DID I MENTION THE CHAINS???
If Leo doesn't surrender, then the others will all be destroyed. The others yell for Leo not to do it, but Leo is not about to let his teammates be hurt, so he powers down, and tosses his sword and morpher away. (Kai is VERY ANGRY that they are putting their hands on his boyfriend.)
Leo gets teleported away, and Villemax is all "I gave my word, they go free." Because Villemax is GREAT. Deviot is all "fuck, you're LAWFUL EVIL?" Then we get a little distracted because Leo is all chained up again, and also his shirt has started ripping dramatically and he is being tortured and clearly there should be some comfort later.
Trakeena shows up and starts molesting Leo, and Leo is trying to explain why he did it, but Trakeena is all "now I will destroy everything, and I'm more powerful then my father was." She wants to throw Leo into a pit of lava (and um, Trakeena, please read the evil overlord handbook) and somehow Leo manages to capture a stingwinger and fly out of the lava pit? Sure. He starts running away, and Deviot points Villemax in the wrong direction. (Speaking of Villemax, I ship Villemax/Trakeena so hard.)
Deviot shows Trakeena the real direction, in the hope that Leo will destroy Trakeena like he destroyed her father, and of course, also sends his assassins after them.
Trakeena had somehow been planning for him to escape, because they both end up in a dome she prepared, and Leo DRAMATICALLY RIPS HIS SHIRT OFF AND IT IS THE MOST FANSERVICEY THING EVER but then they ruin it by having him morph. :-/ (He got his morpher back when he flew out of the lava pit.)
Anyway, the Trakeena vs Leo fight is pretty fun. The other Rangers are on their way, which is good for Leo, because Trakeena is kicking his ass. Trakeena is just about to kill him, when Deviot brings down the force field, and Trakeena gets attacked by the two monsters. Leo is all "crap, which side am I on?" Trakeena takes out one of the monsters, and right before she's about to find out from the other one who had hired them, Deviot blows them up. Gee, Trakeena, maybe this was a sign?
And Leo has taken advantage of the situation to escape. Good Leo. As he's being chased again, the other Rangers all come to the rescue. Trakeena blasts them with green energy and is about to destroy them, when the monster that Deviot has "destroyed" shows up and has grown. Trakeena leaves, and the Rangers summon the Fugazord to fight. Easy victory
Trakeena shows up again to swear dramatically that she will destroy them.
Villemax gives Deviot a present for coming to Trakeena's aid, because Villemax is totally in love with Trakeena and also his honor. He should hang out with some Klingons. Then Deviot is all "yes, we are friends" and then he destroys the dagger as soon as Villemax is out of sight. But WAIT. Someone is watching!
Fish: Leo ripping his shirt off dramatically automatically makes it a one fish episode. We've decided to institute that as a new rule.
Fic we want: VILLEMAX/TRAKEENA. Also, the comfort part of the hurt/comfort with Leo/everyone.

Episode 307 - Shark Attack
I remember nothing about this episode. Although the title sounds like a bad SyFy original movie. (Hey, when IS the bad JDF original movie One Warrior thing coming out? I'm still waiting for that.)
So Treacheron is moping around in prison, when the Shark brothers show up to rescue him. They tell him that Trakeena set him up (DUH. I mean, I love her, but she is very obvious with her scheming.)
Trakeena shows up to taunt him, and he tells her that he is loyal to Scorpius and he would like to prove his loyalty. He gives her a map to give to Scorpius that he says will prove his loyalty. (Um, why does he still have a map on him? Really?) Trakeena, of course, is all "mwahaha, I will go find the gauntlet that this map leads to myself."
Treacheron then escapes, and we cue the themesong. Why is it such an earworm?
For some reason this map leads to stuff buried on Terra Venture? Trakeena is all "this shiny thing is mine" and then Treacheron shows up and tells her that the goblet is worthless, and then it disintegrates. When did Treacheron have time to plant the goblet there? Why would he plant it on Terra Venture? When did he draw the map? How does this plan make any sense?
Treacheron and Trakeena taunt each other, and then Treacheron destroys a bunch of stingwingers. Treacheron is about to fight Trakeena when the Rangers show up, and there's a fight scene, and Trakeena runs away, with Treacheron chasing after her. Except Leo keeps getting in his way, because Leo is great. The Shark Brothers leave the other Rangers alone to continue to chase after Trakeena, except she runs into the Magna Defender. We get another flashback to the Magna Defender's son, and he says that he will kill Scorpius's only child in revenge for Scorpius doing that to him. But then Magna Defender appears to have a crisis of conscience and we hear Mike's voice telling him not to give into vengeance. Leo hears it as well, and he totally gets beaten up. Trakeena escapes, and the villains all run off.
Treacheron then is all "will prove my loyalty by destroying the Rangers" and we find out that they can't activate the fish without all of them together.
Leo, meanwhile, is all shirtless in the hospital and I approve so hard. He is pretty. The others all run off to the Forest Dome to fight the Shark Brothers (who really don't look like Sharks.) Also, their grammar is horrible. I hate it that they're all "You'se Guys!" The Rangers find out that the Lights won't work, and then we get a fight scene where the Rangers are not doing well.
Leo is still in the medbay being all beaten up prettily, and then Mike starts talking to him again. He has a vision of Mike and his lovely floppy hair, and ghost!Mike tells him that his friends are being beaten up. Leo wakes up and is still pretty and shirtless and he leaves the infirmary. Alpha is like "DAMN IT, WILL SOMEONE PUT THOSE REDS ON A LEASH."
Treacheron is all "end of the Rangers" and then Leo shows up. The others are all "Yeah, we knew you would get here!" except they're the ones who told him to stay in the hospital in the first place. Kendrix shows some concern, but he insists he's fine.
They summon the fish, and I swear the music sounds like Return to Oz. Treacheron is all "I will destroy them all, starting with the red" Treacheron keeps going on about his honor, and there's some more fighting. I wonder what the other Rangers are doing during this. Standing around and talking? Gossiping about how great Leo looked without his shirt on? Wondering where Leo got his random fire powers from? Swapping cookie recipes? Wondering how Leo is fighting so well when he was in the hospital five minutes ago? Anyway, then Leo breaks Treacheron's sword. Treacheron goes on about how he hates decency, but the man is obsessed with honor. Leo then destroys Treacheron, and we should probably create a Dragon Death tag or something.
The Shark Brothers then grow to get their revenge and they summon the fugly zords. The Zords also get a Fish power-up. The monster is quickly destroyed.
Trakeena is practicing her fighting. I love that she's trying to better herself. For some version of better, anyway. She is determined to be a warrior, and she decides that she needs a trainer to make her rule the universe. Girl has ambition! I approve so hard.
Back on Terra Venture, Leo and Maya discuss how they think Mike and his floppy hair are still alive.
Fish: Five. Just. This season. I can't even.
(Hey Mark, please note that I did NOT end this recap with "and then they have an orgy." BUT THEY STILL COULD.)
