PRTNG #14-Altered

Original Episode
-----------------------------------------------------
INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The five crewmen talk on the viewscreen with their parents.]

voice of BILLY CRANSTON:
I have sent a program to the ship. You need to download it, and watch it.

voice of HAYLEY OLIVER:
The program contains information on the past ranger teams, including weapons, zords, and the enemies that those teams have faced.

voice of TOMMY OLIVER:
Also, we are working on something exciting to help you out...but it is taking a little longer than expected. We’ll keep in contact. Power Mountain...out.

BROCK CRANSTON:
Got it.

COLIN SCOTT:
Let’s watch our heritage.

[The team watches the video from various seats in the room.]

INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[The four villains discuss their next plot.]

PRINCE KRAKEN:
I want some suggestions...how do we get rid of those rangers!

SANBO:
I do recall that previous forces that the ranger teams fought in the past did involve attacking them mentally.

KYATSU:
My sister is able to perform mental attacks...Hypnotica!

[A almost exact copy of Kyatsu (with red in place of green colorings) enters the room.]

HYPNOTICA:
I am ready for my assignment. your majesty!

PRINCE KRAKEN:
Go down there, and do some damage to the rangers with your abilities!

HYPNOTICA:
This should be fun!

[Hypnotica departs the ship.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The crew looks at the last file, which is about the Star Rangers.]

COLIN SCOTT:
I liked the parts about my father. He was an awesome ranger!

KERI SCHMIDT:
Did you see how many rangers were on the S.P.D., Mystic Force, and Nitro Defender teams had?

DeANDRE TAYLOR:
I like the way that the Galaxy Rangers powered up with the Lights Of Orion, and turned into energy to finish off their enemies.

BROCK CRANSTON:
I like the style of the Jungle Megazord...the Jungle Rangers used their spirit power to operate it!

NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Well...I like the effectiveness of the Kendo Razors!

EXT.-CITY-PARK-DAY
[Hypnotica arrives in the city, and starts to broadcast her hypnotic waves.]

HYPNOTICA:
Hypno Beam!

[The hypnosis waves start to effect people (in similar fashion to Scarecrow’s gas on Arkham Island in “Batman Begins”). The citizens are freaking out, running all over the place. Outside the park, vehicle accidents are occurring. A lot of screaming is heard in the background.]

I love the sound of mass chaos in the morning!

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The alarms on the ship ring out, and the crew departs.]

EXT.-CITY-PARK-DAY
[The five crewmen arrive to face Hypnotica, who counters by summoning a platoon of Foilers and three Scurvies.]

HYPNOTICA:
Hello, rangers! Foilers! Scurvies!

COLIN SCOTT:
So, that’s how you wanna play? Guys?

ALL TEENS:
(with their morphers, and inserting their keys, turning them)
It’s Morphin Time!

voice of HERO MORPHER:
Hero Power!

[The suits “fully-form” over the quintet, then the five use their Crossbone Muskets and Crossbone Cutlasses on the minions.]

RED HERO RANGER:
Time to change up!

[The five insert Power Keys into the morphers.]

voice of HERO MORPHER:
Overdrive Power!

[The five Overdrive Rangers use their Drive Defenders, then use their secondary weapons on the Foilers. With the minion population dwindling, the rangers use their morphers to change up again.]

Nitro Defender Power!

[The three Nitro Rangers and two Defender Rangers summon their weapons, and form the Nitro Defender Cannon, and fire it at the minions.]

HYPNOTICA:
You rangers have been a thorn in the side of the Zangyu! Not this time...Hypno Wave Blast!

[The Scallywag fires red energy beams from her hands to the rangers, which blasts the rangers to the ground, and are completely knocked out of morph.]

Now, you won’t be a problem to Prince Kraken and the rest of the Zangyu! Scurvies...let’s go!

[As Hypnotica and the Scurvies take their leave, the five crewmen deal with the effects of the Scallywag’s attack. The five struggle to recover to their feet while shaking their heads to try to clear their minds.]

COLIN SCOTT:
Everyone okay?

NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Think so...

[The others agree.]

COLIN SCOTT:
Let’s get back to the ship.

BROCK CRANSTON:
Wait! Something’s not right.

INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Hypnotica reports in.]

HYPNOTICA:
I have solved your ranger problems, sire.

PRINCE KRAKEN:
(angered)
No...you didn’t! You had a chance to destroy them...but didn’t!

HYPNOTICA:
Sire...I just wanted to play with them for a while...then I’ll destroy them.

PRINCE KRAKEN:
No! You will destroy them now!

[Hypnotica departs the ship.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The five crewmen are on the ship, but are acting out of character. Colin is at the computer, Brock is exercising, DeAndre plays darts, Keri cooks, and Nikki is in the Captain’s chair. On the monitor, the five watch a local newscast.]

NEWSCASTER:
Those evil Power Rangers took on the heroic Zangyu today, and were defeated...

COLIN SCOTT:
Did you hear that? They think that we’re the enemy!

NAVIX:
The newscaster praised you guys! She said that the Hero Rangers took on a member of the Zangyu, but were defeated...but don’t worry, the rangers will prevail.

COLIN SCOTT:
Naw...I know what I heard. Maybe it is time to go back home.

NAVIX:
You can’t!

[Suddenly, the ship’s alarm klaxon sounds. Hypnotica is in the quarry.

EXT.-QUARRY-DAY
[The five crewmen, who are wearing each other’s uniform jackets arrive, and are treated like the enemy by the Scallywag.]

HYPNOTICA:
When will you fiends ever learn!?

COLIN SCOTT:
We’re trying to clear our names!

[The five utilize their blasters and swords, and charge into battle against the Foilers.]

INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[Navix is communicating with Power Mountain over the viewscreen.]

voice of HAYLEY OLIVER:
Navix, I am uploading a program to your systems. Use it on the rangers.

NAVIX:
Roger!

[Navix flies off to find the rangers.]

EXT.-QUARRY-DAY
[The crew battles the Foilers while unmorphed, but are soon overpowered, since they are still under the influence of Hypnotica’s attack. Soon, Navix flies in, and confronts the crew while they are on the ground.]

COLIN SCOTT:
Navix! What are you doing here?

NAVIX:
Came to help you!

[The robotic bird lands on the dirt in front of the five. Her eyes begin to flash rapidly to bring the crew back to their senses.]

COLIN SCOTT:
What happened?

NAVIX:
You were under the effects of Hypnotica’s attack. Hayley says that the visors in your helmets can block it. You must morph.

ALL TEENS:
Right!

[The five grab their morphers and Power Keys, insert and turn them to activate the morph.]

It's Morphin' Time!

voice of MORPHER:
Hero Power!

[The suits "fully-form" over the quintet.]

ALL RANGERS:
(posing)
Heroes Setting Sail For Adventure! Power Rangers, hya!

[The rangers utilize their Crossbone Muskets and Crossbone Cutlasses to blast and slice the army of Foilers. After battling melee-style, the rangers do their weapons trading to each other. After a few minutes, the five rangers feel the need to up the ante on the weaponry, and insert the Power Keys into their morpher.]

ALL RANGERS:
(the five rangers bring their weapons together)
Power Cannon! Fire!

[Some Foilers are destroyed. The rangers then insert the keys again to change into Zeo Rangers, and load the Zeo Power Cells.]

Zeo Power Cannon! Fire!

[The cannon blast destroys a few more Foilers. The rangers insert another set of keys to change into Time Force Rangers, and bring together their V-Weapons.]

Vortex Bazooka! Fire!

[The blast from the immense cannon takes out the last of the Foilers.]

One more time!

[The rangers insert another set of keys to change into the Star Rangers. The rangers piece together the Guardian Wepaons, then place cards (which grow into proportion) onto their weapons.]

Guardian Cannon! Star Blast!

[The blast destroys the Scurvies. The rangers then power down into their Hero Ranger forms to use their Crossbone Cutlasses to attack Hypnotica.]

Hero Wave!

[The rangers slice-attack the Scallywag to make her cackle in red energy bolts. She then collapses and explodes. Soon, pink beams come from the sky to make Hypnotica and the Scurvies revive and grow. The Red Ranger uses his morpher, and presses “5-5-0-1“ to summon the Hero Megazord. The rangers then summon the Lion Wildzord to form the megazord’s Wild Mode.]

HYPNOTICA:
Time for the evening drive!

ALL RANGERS:
Hero Megazord, Wild Mode!

[The three Scurvies all try to protect Hypnotica, but the megazord uses it’s Dual Heroic Sabers to attack multiple times to take the Scurvies down one-by-one.]

Heroic Mega Roar!

[The rangers execute the megazord’s finisher to destroy Hypnotica, who explodes into a massive fireball as the megazord gallops away from the destruction. Inside, the rangers celebrate in the cockpit.]

INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Kraken and Kyatsu are not happy.]

PRINCE KRAKEN:
Another defeat!

[Shireikan enters the room with a device that looks similar to an iPad.]

SHIREIKAN:
Sire...we just got a message from King Monarchtius...he is sending help.

PRINCE KRAKEN:
Father is sending us some help!?
