Comments:
Just like Katie's doubts about fighting, Trip has
doubts about his competence as a Ranger totally
out of the blue. He has always been a great
Ranger, and always bailed the Rangers out with
his devices and with his mental powers. Why all
of a sudden is he doubting himself as a Ranger?
It doesn't make any sense.
They definitely need more wire work in the action
sequences. This ep had quite a few of them, and
they were pretty nifty.
