Island of Illusion, Part 1
Airdate: 11/02/93
Rita prepares for the arrival of the
great Lokar and the creation of Mutitus.
Bulk and Skull show up to bother Zack and
make fun of his dance steps.
Bulk tries to keep up with Zack's moves
and ends up toppling into the background. Zack is
discouraged that he'll screw up as well.
Rita's spell is set in motion, which
causes an earthquake at the Youth Center. They inform
Zordon of the situation.
As the other Rangers rush off, Tommy
stays behind to help his students who are afraid.
The Rangers find themselves up against
Goldar and Scorpina with a patrol of Putties.
As Rita finishes her spell, they keep the
Rangers busy.
Rita uses her magic to complete her dark
spell.
The spell creates Mutitus - a powerful
giant monster.
The Rangers form the Megazord to battle
against Mutitus.
Rita's spell also unleashes an evil being
straight for Earth.
The evil Lokar appears over the city and
blows his powerful breath on Mutitus.
Lokar's breath causes Mutitus to
transform into an even more powerful monster.
The Green Ranger shows up just in time to
call the Dragonzord.
The Dragonzord and the Megazord stand up
against Mutitus, but are no match.
The Megazord and Dragonzord are both
frozen and fall to the ground.
A spell of Rangers causes the Rangers to
be sent to the mysterious Island of Illusion.
Zordon informs Alpha that the Rangers are
beyond his reach and only their courage can save them.
The Rangers find themselves on the island
without their Morphers or communicators.
The Rangers meet an elf named Quagmire
who mistakes them for allies of Rita and tells them he
won't have anything to do with them.
Goldar appears in the sky introducing the
Rangers to the Island of Illusion and ensures them that
they won't escape.
Previously destroyed monsters show up to
attack the Rangers all at once.
The Rangers prepare to defend themselves,
but the monsters were just an illusion.
Zack finds himself face to face with a
huge snake, but it is an illusion that only he can see.
He is petrified.
Quagmire informs the Rangers that if they
give into fear that they will all disappear.
The other Rangers try to talk sense into
Zack, but his fear and self doubt has caused him to begin
fading from existence.
Comments:
Lokar is the second giant floating head in the
show. Zordon's arch rival perhaps?
The monsters that appear as an illusion are
Pineoctopus, Snizzard, Eye Guy, Shellshock, and
Pudgy Pig.
When Rita casted the spell to summon Mutitus,
Goldar could be seen in the background, but at
that point in time he and Scorpina were fighting
the Rangers.
