Ryan's Destiny
Airdate: 05/6/00
Ryan stops by the Aquabase to tell his
dad that he is leaving to find out who he is. The Captain
gives him a silver box and tells him to open it when he
knows he is truly good.
After Queen Bansheera threatens to take
away his Star power and give it to Impus, Diabolico pulls
out all the stops and unleashes his final three, and most
powerful monsters.
The monsters arrive at Mariner Bay and
begin spreading explosive feathers around the city.
On his way to the bus station, Ryan finds
one of the feathers, and gives it to a boy to cheer his
sister up.
The Rangers appear, and begin fighting
the powerful trio. Joel takes on one of the monsters.
Chad and Carter fight another one, who
uses her staff to do a Xena-like spinning kick attack
The third monster grabs a hold of Dana
and Kelsey, and literally juggles the girls, flipping
them around in the air.
Captain Mitchell hears the monsters
reveal their plan as they unleash one of the feathers on
the Rangers.
A news bulletin is immediately issued
warning people of the feathers. Ryan hears this just as
he is about to get on a bus. He recalls the feather he
gave the children, and races off to save them.
The three monsters have the Rangers on
the run. They elude them long enough to set up a sneak
attack using the Unilaser, but they are unsuccessful -
the monsters deflect the blast.
To show that mean business, the monsters
throw dozens of feathers at the fallen Rangers, to put
their lights out for good. The feathers go off, sending
our heroes flying through a brick wall, and unmorphing.
Ryan catches up to the kids. He snatches
the feather and flings it over the bridge, where it
explodes. As the children thank him, Ryan comes to the
realization that he is good, and opens the mysterious
box.
Just as the weakened Rangers are about to
receive their death blows from the monsters, Ryan steps
in and knocks them clear.
Ryan uses the Titanium Morpher and
morphs. He very easily takes on all three monsters, and
sends them retreating.
Captin Mitchell proudly looks on, as
reports come in confirming that there have been no
injuries and minimal damage as a result of the feathers.
Ryan is officially inducted into the
team, and receives his Lightpeed Rescue jacket. He
finally knows where he belongs, and Dana couldn't be
happier.
Later that night, Ryan has a dream in
which Diabolico zaps a tattoo of a snake onto his back
which will move closer to his neck with each morph until
it kills him.
Ryan wakes up in a cold sweat. He was not
so sure that he just had an ordinary dream. He walks to a
mirror, and to his horror, he finds that the tattoo is
really there!
Comments:
I had a feeling Ryan would have some limitation,
he was just way too powerful, single handedly
defeating those monster without even using any
weapons. Now he will have to watch how many times
he morphs.
If you look closely in the first scene with Ms.
Fairweather, you will see the little robot helper
from Go Go V in the background.
Just as Bansheera threatened, she will indeed
take away Diabolico's Star powers and give them
to Impus, turning him into a grown demon.
Those were some pretty sweet fight scenes. That
was too cool when the monster juggled the girl
Rangers, and it was great seeing Ryan knock the
stuffing out them at the end.
The Rangers should have used the V-Lancers. If
the Rangers could beat Ryan with them, and Ryan
could beat the monsters, perhaps the Rangers
could have beaten the monsters with them as well.
