12x16 - Burning at Both Ends

Post by bunniefuu »

Dr. O, l know the suit looks good and all,
but kidding around.

l wish l could, Kira.
When Trent fro e me in that amber

somehow my Dino Gem and
my morpher must've re-moleculari ed.

- In other words?
- He's stuck.

And speaking of Trent,
Iooks like he's up to no good again.

l'm so over that poser.

Go. l'll see what we can figure out here.

- (Conner) Ready.
- (Kira) Ready.

DinoThunder, power up! Ha!

Yah!

Dino power! Yah!

That's right - you'd better run.

(Red Ranger) _i_e!

(Red Ranger) Come on, guys.

- Get out of there!
- Stop!

That's enough!

l'm iust getting started.

lt's Zord time!

Make your move.

- Now what's he up to?
- l don't know, but we have to stop him.

l hate to do this to you.
Nothing personal.

We need Dino ord help!

Perfect. Contain the fields... online.

Yah!

What?

Our Dino ords! Let them go!

Sorry. Not gonna happen.

Trent, you've gotta stop this!
You're out of control!

Looks more like l'm in control.

What's he gonna do with them?

(all) Whoa!

Huh?

- fConner) What's the situation, Hayley?
- (sighs) It!s no good.

He's got them in a force field.

lt's not Trent's fault.
The gem is making him this way.

l don't care whose fault it is.

We find a way to deal with him,
or things are gonna get ugly.

Slow down. l was in his shoes once,

and l wouldn't be here today
if my friends have given up on me.

OK, so we don't give up yet.
But what do we do?

Go back to school.
Keep a low profile.

Hayley and l will let you know
if anything changes.

White Ranger has captured mo of the
Power Rangers' auxiliary Zords.

He continues to be neither with us
nor against us.

l cannot allow such power
to exist outside of my control.

We clearly share a common enemy.

lf only there were a way
to force him to join with us.

Zeltrax, you cannot force someone to do

what is not in their nature.

But perhaps his nature...

can be changed.

l have a mission for you.

(♪ humming)

You know, you shouldn't walk
to school alone.

You never know who you might run into.

How did you do that?

You didn't think you were
the only one with Dino Gem Power.

- l don't wanna fight.
- Well, that makes one of us.

White Ranger, Dino Power.

Bring it on.

lf that's how it has to be.

DinoThunder power up! Ha!

Tyranno Power!

Show me what you got.

No problem.

lt doesn't have to be this way!
Why don't you let us help you?

l don't need anyone's help...
Ieast of all, yours.

Fine, if that's how you wanna play.

- Thunder Max Saber!
- Drago Sword!

fTrent) Fire!

Perfect timing.
Should l infect them both?

No. Do as we've been instructed.
Just the white one.

Yes, Master.

- What have you done?
- Huh?

(Zeltrax) Let!s go.

Power down.

Trent. Are you OK?

Better than OK. l'm me.

- Hey, you mo.
- Hmm?

l got an e-mail
from that science teacher of yours.

He's claiming to be too sick to work.

Now that you mention it, he really didn't
seem himself last time l saw him.

Yeah.

Well, l'd better not find out he's faking it,
or he can kiss his job goodbye.

A model of warmth and sympathy.
Hmm?

- fKira) What's up?
- It's Trent.

- Now l know you're cra y.
- l know, dude, but check it out.

- He's reformed.
- (Kira) ReaIIy?

Trent? Are you in there?

Hey, it's really me.

One of Mesogog's monster attacks
backfired.

Think it released the Dino Gem's hold.

That doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Guys, look, l'm really sorry
for everything l've done to you.

You gotta believe it wasn't me.

lf there's anything
l can do to make it up to you...

How about returning our Zords
for starts?

Meet me in the warehouse district
this afternoon.

l'll give you back your Zords. And l might
have a little peace offering as well.

(Mesogog) So. they fell for the µloy.

They took the bait and ran with it.

(Mesogog chuckles) _xceIIent.

l did my part; now you need to pay up.

Of course. l never cheat an ally.

We are not allies. It's like we said:
you scratch my back, l scratch yours.

Then we go out separate ways.
That was the deal!

Ah, yes.

We shall see.

Hey, over here.

Hope you don't mind.
l tagged along just in case.

- Dr. Oliver, you're OK.
- More or less.

l hate to get right to the point,
but l don't see any Zords around here.

l thought we'd start with the peace
offering l promised first.

- Whoa!
- (Blue Ranger) Sweet!

l figured you guys could use
the help against Mesogog.

- Who wants to try it?
- Make way!

Sorry, Ethan.
l think it's better if l try it first.

Aw, man.

Nice.

- Good work. -stroke engine?
- Yeah, it sure is.

They don't make -stroke engines,
Trent.

Mesogog doesn't make monsters
that turn people nice, either.

(all) Whoa!

lt's a trap!

- Whoa!
- (Red Ranger) Mo!

Dr. O!
You'll pay for this.

(whistles)

- (Red Ranger) Mo wav!
- Later, suckers.

Stop!

- Not so fast!
- Whoa!

- You're not going anywhere.
- Try and stop us.

Come on, guys.

- Right with ya!
- Yeah!

How do you control this thing?

Not good!

Think, Tommy. Brachio Staff!

(sighs) _uh?

Oh, yeah.

Time to go to work.

Fire!

- Aah!
- fTrent) Better run!

Laser fire, full power.

Aah!

Out of my way, Spike!

Light my fire!

(Yellow Ranger) Veah!

fBlue Ranger) Yeah, baby!
Back for more!

Fire!

Whoa!

No!

Yah!

Conner!

- (Yellow Ranger) A_e vou OK?
- Yeah.

ls that all you got?

Super Dino Mode!

Super what?

Attack!

Tyranno Power!

Yah!

- Fire!
- Not this time!

Cra y freak!

You'll flip for this!

Come on!

l'm right behind you.

You can run but you can't hide.
Ha-ha!

Fire!

l've gotta control it.

There's no escape.

Turning bird.

- (revs engine)
- Don't think l won't destroy you, Trent.

Whatever you say, old man.

You asked for it.

Bring it.

Brachio Staff, fire!

Their bikes are history!
We're through here. Bye!

Go, Dr. O!

Talk about a wild ride.

- Glad you're OK.
- Thanks.

Later days!

l see my friends have been
keeping you busy.

Someone's been careless
with their toys.

You're making a mistake, Trent.
Don't trust Mesogog.

Who says l do? l got what l wanted.
Goodbye, Rangers.

- What about our Zords?
- Say goodbye to them too.

(sinister laughter)

Trent, don't do this.

l'm outta here.

fConner) Can we go over this again?

Trent made a deal with Mesogog,

pretending to let Insectollite
turn him back into himself

as a way of tricking us
into taking the rigged ATV?

l can't believe he made a deal
with Mesogog. That is a new low.

And risky.
Trent was supposed to beat us.

Mesogog's not gonna be happy.

Lighting the candle at both ends? The
White Ranger's bound to get burned.

And l think l know
how to get the fire going.

The ray used by Insectollite
destroyed your energy shields.

l bet if you could get that creep to aim
his energy buster at the Zords...

We could break through
Trent's shield around them.

OK, small problem:
how's Trent gonna feel about all this?

Every trap needs its bait.

Trent! Where are you?

- We gotta talk, bro.
- Trent!

fBlack Ranger) You made a deal
with Mesogog.

Now it's time you made one with us.

Ha!

Whoa.

You wanted to see me?

We wanted to make
a little deal of our own.

- l don't make deals with posers.
- Take that back!

- You just won't learn, will you?
- Learn what?

The White Ranger always wins.

- (beeµing)
- Go.

lt's working. The monster is back
on the other side of the warehouse.

- Got it.
- Come on!

There he is!

Out of my way!
l've been sent to get the white one.

Sabers!

Brachio Staff, energy orb!

You're going down.

Let's help him out, guys.
Tyranno Staff!

- Tricera Shield!
- Ptera Grips!

- Going for a spin?
- Put me down!

OK!

- fRed Ranger) That got him.
- (Black Ranger) Veah.

- Help me load him up.
- (Blue Ranger) Right.

- (Yellow Ranger) OK.
- (Red Ranger) Gotit_

Looks like your friends
are trying to save you. Fools.

(Red Ranger) Come on!

- Faster, boy, faster!
- Hold on, Zords!

- We'll never make it.
- We have to.

Aah! Let me go!

This is your cue, Insectollite.
Go on.

Do it.

- You're too late.
- Oh, man.

See ya.

Come on!

- Oh, no!
- It can't be.

Yo! Check it out!

They survived!

Whoa! Whoa!

- (Blue Ranger) Loo_!
- (Red Ranger) _uh?

Dino Zords, attack!

- The Zords, they switched teams!
- Another trick.

l thought they would make
a nice addition to my collection.

- No way!
- That's cra y!

The starfish device was just
to re-program them to obey me.

You're not gonna get away with this.

Brachio!

- Let's make him pay!
- You can't afford it.

(all) Aah!

Dimetro ord, saw blade.

Aah!

- With our Zords, he's too powerful.
- Now you're beginning to get it.

Why don't you just surrender
the rest of your Zords to me?

lf you think we'd do that,
you're cra ier that l thought.

Then l'll take them.

- (gasµs)
- No!

Don't do it!

Huh?

l'm back! flaughs)

Foolish boy. You think l would
Iet you double-cross me?

Out of my way, insect.

Drago Winger, strike mode.

No! Aah!

My eckto-skeleton!

(Yellow Ranger) What?

Another day, Rangers.

fKira) Trent has got some nerve.

fEthan) Why can't he iust give up?

Good thing l never give up.
Your bikes are fixed.

- Hayley, you're the best.
- Awesome.

Just don't do it again, OK?

And as an added bonus,
l reprogrammed the ATV.

That should come in handy.

We're gonna need
all the help we can get.

lf Trent and Mesogog team up for good,

we're gonna have a real battle
on our hands.

Why must you continue to fail
at bringing me the right ranger?

My lord, you yourself have
experimented on the white gem.

- Its power's unfathomable.
- Excuse after excuse.

Now get out of my sight.

l need time to think

without your sniveling incompetence
distracting me.

(Zeltrax) Ves, my Iord.

No...

No!

Control it...

...before he controls me.

(chucktes)
