aka. "I See Dead Monsters"
Airdate: 11/09/00
While travelling through the desert, Ryan
passes out from exhaustion, and is found and taken by an
old man and his pet crow.
Olympius' latest scheme has him enter the
monster underworld. He meets with the gatekeeper, and
tells him to lure the Rangers there.
The gatekeeper draws the Rangers outin
Mariner Bay, and zaps them with a beam that transports
them.
The Rangers find themselves in the
monster underworld, home of the spirits of dead monsters.
The gatekeeper uses his staff to summon
the monster spirits, which the Rangers find they cannot
destroy, no matter what attack they use.
Ryan wakes up, and he meets the Sorcerer
of the Sands, who was actually the crow. He shows him the
symbols he copied from the tomb, which are revealed to be
spells.
The Rangers destroy the gatekeeper's
staff. The monster spirits are now out of control, and
they go after everyone.
Olympius and the gatekeeper dash for the
exit, and are chased by monster ghosts all the way.
Diabolico appears and destroys the gate
to Earth, trapping everyone inside!
The sorcerer tells Ryan that his friends
are in danger. He decides to help out.
He sends a ball of light into the
underworld, which shows the Rangers a way out.
The Rangers escape, butthreemonsters
manage to sneak by and come back with them.
The Supertrain Megazord battles and
defeats two of them.
And the Lightspeed Solarzord destroys the
third one.
Olympius is still trapped in the
underworld, getting beat down by the monsters, and the
gatekeeper is no longer with him.
Queen Bansheera finds thetrio of demons
gloating over their exile of Olympius, and surprisingly,
she approves.
The sorcerer recites a spell from Ryan's
book. Diabolico senses the spell being recited, and
counters it with some spells of his own.
Diabolico's spells overpower thesorcerer,
and he and the book are toasted. Ryan is not too
thrilled, and ponders his next move.
Comments:
When the gatekeeper started wrecking buildings to
lure the Rangers out, they showed up instantly
. I mean they were right there!
I was totally shocked when Bansheera agreed to
let her son rot in the underworld. What a cold
hearted mother!
