Sky is working in the Command Center late
at night.
But R.I.C. keeps bothering him, because
he wants him to play ball.
The alarms sound and the Rangers respond
to the emergency.
The Rangers form the Delta Squad Megazord
to battle another giant robot.
The robot is trying to escape, when the
Rangers stop it with the Delta Command Megazord.
The Rangers bring Wootox the Destroyer of
Planets in for questioning.
Sky is taking Wootox to his cell when
Wootox uses his power to switch bodies with Sky.
By morphing into the Blue Ranger, Wootox
removes the translator device around his former body's
neck and throws him into the prison cell.
Wootox disturbs Syd when he barges into
her room while searching for the cockpit for the Delta
Command Megazord.
Wootox suggests that they get rid of the
criminal as soon as possible. Just then the alarms sound
reporting Sky's escape.
Wootox busts into Kat's lab demanding her
to tell him the location of the cockpit.
Commander Cruger shows up and figures out
that Wootox is not really Sky. The Shadow Ranger and Blue
Ranger battle.
Sky figures out Wootox's plan, but has to
find a way back inside the Delta Base, given that he's in
the body of a wanted criminal.
The other Rangers stop Sky from gaining
access to the Delta Base, but he is determined to stop
Wootox.
The Blue Ranger finds the cockpit of the
Delta Command Megazord and prepares to destroy Newtech
City.
The Delta Command Megazord powers up its
lasers and prepares to unleash its power on the city.
Just then, Sky comes in to stop Wootox
and throws him out of the Megazord.
Sky is about to destroy Wootox, but
sacrificing his body to do so, but the other Rangers stop
him and turn their weapons on Sky.
The Shadow Ranger shows up just in time
to stop them, warning them of the body switch.
Wootox claims that they switched back,
but Jack has an idea. He throws the ball to R.I.C.
R.I.C. returns the ball to the real Sky,
and Wootox loses his composure.
The other Rangers hold down Wootox as Sky
takes his body back.
Sky morphs into the Blue Ranger and joins
the team to take down Wootox.
The Rangers fire the Canine Cannon and
contain Wootox once and for all.
Later, Sky promised R.I.C. that he'd play
ball with him until he gets tired, but Bridge points out
that R.I.C. won't ever get tired.
Sky accidently breaks something and the
two of them run out of the room and down the hall.
Comments:
When Sky and Jack are in the Command Center and
the alarms go off, the other Rangers rush in and
immediately morph and jump into the Zord tubes..
How do they know what the emergency is?
Wouldn't it be a lot easier to bring Wootox in
for questioning if they contained him first. It
would've also avoiding the whole mind swap. In
later episodes, we see that S.P.D. hasn't learned
from their mistakes.
Commander Cruger wanted the other Rangers to
bring Wootox in for questioning, but once they've
brought them in, he tells them that they can't
trust a word he says, because of his track
record. Why did he have them bring him in to
begin with then?
When the other Rangers are trying to figure out
which is the real Sky, Sydney says, "It
sounds like Sky." Considering she was one of
the ones that knew him the longest, she should be
able to tell that Sky was acting completely out
of character.
Why didn't Bridge bother to use his psychic
abilities to find out who was the real Sky? Yet
they leave Sky's fate in the hands of R.I.C.?
