12x23 - A Star Is Torn

[bunniefuu]

Trent, you're not gonna believe this.
You're gonna freak.

l'm already freaking. We're out of
soy milk, and Hayley's off today.

- l gotta hit the store.
- Wait. l have to tell you something.

Sorry, it's gonna have to wait.

- OK. Have you seen Ethan?
- Not yet.

- Conner?
- Not today.

Later.

Great. Who am l gonna tell?

- All right, you ready, Conner?
- Yep, ready.

- Try the controls.
- OK.

lnitiating simulation.

Hayley, can we stop, please?

(gasµs)

Shutting down.

Hey. Conner. are you there?
It's Kira.

Hey, Kira. Unfortunately,
he's a little fried right now.

- Are you all right?
- Yeah. t'm fine.

- l just wanted to tell him...
- Can we call you back?

We're working on the control program
for the new as*ault vehicle.

Oh, yeah, sure.
What about Ethan? Is he around?

Can you tell her, unless she's getting
attacked by something green and scaly,

send me an e-mail.

Did you hear that?

- Yeah, l heard.
- And Ethan's right.

Unless it's an emergency,

we should keep
the communication frequency clear.

OK, l'm sorry.
l'll talk to you guys later.

What are you doing over there
that's so important, anyway?

Searching the web for my soul mate.

Dude, if you needed help with girls,
you just needed to ask.

l'm looking for something
a little deeper than you're used to, bro.

And by the way, nice look.

What? What's he talking about?

You look fine.
Now, let's try that again?

Ew, somebody looks bummed out today.

What's the matter? You find out
you're not the next Hilary Duff?

You know what? Even you aren't
gonna ruin today, Cassidy.

Why not?

lf l have to tell someone,
it might as well be you.

l got a call from
a really big music manager.

He wants to sign me and record one
of my songs, do a video and everything.

lf you're done with the computer,
l really need to use it.

- Thanks for listening.
- No problem.

Can you move?
'Cause l have things to do,

and it doesn't involve
a wannabe rock star. Bye-bye.

Come on, Conner, take him down.

l'm trying.

No, l'm losing it.

Oops.

Great. Game over, again.

- Welcome to my world, dude.
- At least it's only a simulation.

The hydraulics are doing the opposite
of everything l tell them to.

Hey, would you guys say that
l'm A: A chiseled workout fiend,

B: A beefy boy toy,
C: A walking toothpick,

or D: Just your average,
everyday dude?

l thought you were looking
for something a little deeper, Ethan.

But to get there, l gotta answer
these questions,

and l'm getting a hand cramp.

Here's a chance to take a break.

l need you mo to pick up
a titanium servo mechanism.

l e-mailed the address to your organi er,
Ethan. It'll be waiting for you.

Do you think that's
gonna fix the problem?

l'm hoping.
Let's just get it home

without Mesogog finding out
what we're doing.

What did you find
in Anton Mercer's computer files?

Something to help us battle Dr. Oliver

and his new Triassic Red Ranger,
l hope.

No, but something very interesting.

Have you reported it to Lord Mesogog?

Reported what?

The Rangers' brainiac, Hayley,

has ordered a sophisticated
servo mechanism from one of your...

Arrh...

l mean, Mercer's supply companies.

Mercer. That idiot.

Right under his nose.

What are the Rangers using it for?

- We're not sure.
- Well, don't take any chances.

Send the Tyrannodrones
and make certain those teenagers

are unsuccessful
in retrieving the component.

l've had about all the new
Ranger powers l can stand.

- Yes, My Lord.
- As you wish.

Hmm.

What are you up to, Rangers?

(♪ music µlays/bass µounds)

Hello?

Anybody here? Hello?

You must be Kira.

Welcome to my home.
Walk with me.

Wait. You live here?

My ideas do.
This is my creative home.

This is where l make my stars, Kira.

Stars like you.

Great. So... what do l do?

Just follow my lead.

lf you can promise me
your loyalty, your trust,

l can promise you your dreams.

- Does that sound fair?
- Yeah, l guess it does.

Great. Then let's start.

On the way to wardrobe,
we can talk about Kira Ford.

Who she's gonna be,
what she is going to represent.

This is gonna be great. Come on.

- fConner) That's it.
- (Ethan) OK.

- There you go.
- Thanks.

Let's go.

fEthan) How'd they know?

Do these guys ever take a vacation?

Huh? No, you don't.

- Well, that was fun.
- We better get this thing back.

- Do you love it?
- Hmm...

- You want me to be honest?
- Remember, Kira: trust.

- Doesn't trust work both ways?
- Not in my world. Spin.

That... is perfect.

Ah, excellent. Thanks.

- Your new sound.
- My new sound?

Remixed by Kylie Styles' producer.

And he is not easy to get.

Oh.

(♪ Kira's song µlays)

Oh, that is magic.
That's pure magic.

Uh, would you mind
if l went outside and made a call?

Yeah, fine. Just don't be long.
We got work to do.

(dialing cell µhone)

(♪ cell µhone beeµing)

- Do you hear that? What is that?
- That's my phone.

Dude, you gotta change that ring.

- What's the matter with it?
- You serious?

Hello. Hello?

Must've hung up.

(dials)

Conner, pick up.

- (♪ cell µhone beeµing)
- You've gotta be kidding me.

What? It's better than yours.

Oh. Oh, hurry up.

Oh, man. Come on, let's just
get this thing inside.

Excuse me. Are you a singer?

Uh, yeah, l am.

What do you sing?

l was supposed to be making an album,
but l don't think l'm going to anymore.

Why not? l bet you're great.

- And l love your clothes.
- You do?

(all) Veah!

- Can we have your autograph?
- You guys want my autograph?

Yeah.

Well, yeah, l guess.

This is becoming a pattern.

l take full responsibility, My Lord,

and will accept any punishment
you deem appropriate.

Fortunately for you,
we have no time for punishment.

We must be ready
for whatever new power

our enemy comes forward with.

And judging by their new acquisition,
it will be quite sophisticated.

We will be ready, My Lord.

Let me get this straight.

So we just have to transfer
the computer information

from our testing to this,
install it, and then we're ready?

Only problem is,
it's not accepting the data dump.

- l just don't understand it.
- Keep trying, Hayley.

Hey, what do you guys think of this one?
She's single,

attractive both inside and out,

believes she was Cleopatra
in another life,

and loves to paint portraits of snakes.

- That makes sense, historically.
- Sounds like a perfect match to me.

Hey there.
We all ready to close?

Not quite.
Still got one straggler over there.

Cass. Cassidy.

What? Can't you see l'm busy?

Cassidy, we're closed.

Oh... right.
Well, l guess l didn't notice.

What are you working on?

Just 'cause l'm using your computer
doesn't mean l have to tell you.

OK. Just don't be too long.

(mouths)

Have you had any thoughts

about ways to draw
the Rangers' new weapon out?

Yes, Lord Mesogog.

l have reconstructed the aerial as*ault
craft with some improvements.

l'm intrigued.

l hoped you would be, My Lord.

Your days are numbered, Black Ranger.

Heh-heh-heh.

- Great, you're all here.
- Kira, where have you been?

Yeah, you should check in
every once in a while.

l tried. Never mind.
l need your opinion on something,

and l need you all to be honest.
Hayley, can you play this?

Sure.

All right, tell me the truth.

- Well... um...
- It's...

What? Is someone gonna tell me
what they really think?

- l will.
- (all) Conner.

- No, let him talk.
- l just think it's...

lt's not you.

l knew it. What was l thinking?

(alarm beeµs)

Never thought l'd be glad
to hear that sound.

Either something escaped from
the air show, or we're in trouble.

Zeltrax.

You guys handle it.

l'm gonna try to help Hayley
get our new weapon powered up.

- OK. Ready?
- (Kira/Ethan) Ready.

fal!) DinoThunder, power up! Ha!

Dino power, hyah!

Look out!

(att scream)

- Where's he going?
- Good question.

Keep trying to get the new vehicle
up and running. We're gonna need it.

Zeltrax isn't gonna give up
until one of us is destroyed.

(roars)

Guys, this thing is still in the area.

We have to intercept it
before it comes into the city.

(roars)

Come on, Raptor.

Whoa, steady, boy.

There he is.

What should we do, Dr. O?

You'll have to fight him
the best you can. Brachio Zord!

Come on, Dr. Oliver.

You can do better than the same
tired Zords. Where's your new toy?

Whoa, check that out.

Oh, man. Look out!

He's getting away.

Oh, no, you don't.

- We gotta do something.
- Like what?

Might be time to go Triassic, Conner.

l think you're right.

Triassic Ranger, engage.

l'm coming up there.

Whoa!

OK, new plan. Fire!

Whoa.

What?

Whoa. Hayley did it.

Triassic Mega Rover is on-line.

And just in time, by the look of things.
Do it just like we practiced, Conner.

You got it.

This is sweet.

Shield of Triumph.

Full power!

That's right, take it down. Huh?

- Surprised to see me?
- What did you want?

To stop this... once and for all.

l think l'm getting the hang of this.

Outstanding.

Smitty, you don't have to do this.

l am Zeltrax.

Where's Dr. Oliver?

You wanna tell him?

He's still up there?

This is the end of Dr. Tommy Oliver.

- Whoa!
- Huh?

lt's your last chance to stop this.

l'll never stop.

Then l'm sorry, Smitty.

But you leave me no choice. Hyah!

(all) Mo!

No, he can't be gone!

lt's all right, Rangers.

l made it out.

- Dr. O.
- You're OK.

- But what about Zeltrax?
- Zeltrax is gone.

Well, everything is all set.

Cameras are all ready, playback's good,
all you gotta do is sing.

Thank you, guys.

From now on, no more letting
someone tell me who l should be.

Especially since who you are
is already pretty cool.

Hey, you forget something?

Supposed to meet my cyber hottie today.

What, in here?

l figure you can't get much better
in the first-date department

than a music video sh**t.

How you gonna know who she is?

She's wearing a pink hat
and a matching jacket.

Oh, there she is now.

Excuse me, are you Dreamgirl ?

Yes, l am.

l don't believe it.
