Power Rangers In Order

Mighty Morphin #2.16 – Beauty and the Beast

We open at the Juice Bar, where Billy is reflecting on how quiet things are without Tommy around as Kimberly gazes into a giant-ass mirror she says Tommy won for her at a carnival.

Mighty Morphin #2.15 – Orchestral Maneuvers in the Park

So this is already the best title ever.

We open with Richie tending bar at the Juice Bar, a plot element I’m still amazed exists given the establishment’s complete lack of staffing thus far in the show. Speaking of characters who exist solely to be red herrings, Zack’s cousin Curtis meets up with him and Trini and asks if they’re coming to the jazz concert tomorrow, where he’ll be playing a solo.

Mighty Morphin #2.14 – Missing Green

You and me both.

Mighty Morphin #2.13 – Green No More: Part 2

We pick back up with Tommy, who is still hiding from Turban Shell behind the rock outcrop. He’s heard about all of the monster’s boasting he can take, and he launches himself at it and knocks it over with a kick.

Mighty Morphin #2.12 – Green No More: Part 1

Yep, you read that right.

Mighty Morphin #2.11 – The Song of Guitardo

We start with Kimberly playing the guitar at the Juice Bar. Now, I knew Amy Jo Johnson was able to play, but it’s a nice note for Kimberly to continue evolving her past the mall girl stereotype she started as.

Zack drops in to tell her how good she sounds, and she asks for his help with lyrics. He’s eager to help, and she begins to play what she has so far.

Mighty Morphin #2.10 – Welcome to Venus Island

Kimberly, Trini, and Tommy are at the beach with a young girl, who is telling them about her dream of a prince saving her as she builds a sand castle. Tommy jokes that the story sounds pretty sappy, but Kimberly elbows him and argues that it’s romantic.

The girl runs off to grab some rocks for her castle and we get an almost creepy moment where Richie walks behind them without them noticing. Finally Trini looks up and gives him a blushing wave.

Mighty Morphin #2.09 – The Beetle Invasion

We open with Ernie recruiting Jason, Zack, Billy, and Tommy for his broomball team (holy cow, I don’t think I’ve thought about broomball since elementary school P.E.), as the youth center in Stone Canyon (pay attention to that city name — it’ll be important later this season) has challenged him to a match.

Mighty Morphin #2.08 – The Power Stealer

Well, this title is bad for Tommy, right off the bat.

Mighty Morphin #2.07 – The Green Dream

We begin with Ms. Appleby reminding her class that their 500-word essays are due Friday, and all I can think is how crazy short that is. She snaps “This Friday” at Bulk and Skull, because she knows her students.
