Kevin is asking everyone if they are okay, that he is there for them. The reason is because he has been thinking of the dream he has given up. The newest Nighlok, DoubleTone can make a person loose their dreams, causing more tears for the Sanzu River. Ryan, a little boy who loves baseball makes a deal with DoubleTone to bring his dad back from 'the war,' they don't specify where he is stationed. Mia makes food for Kevin, who is staking out Ryan's house in case Double Tone comes back. But the food isn't good. Ryan throws away his equipment and when the garbage truck comes, the monster arrives and Mia and Kevin are waiting him. They fight, destroy his first life and defeat him with the Megazord.
Review:
It is an exact carbon copy of Episode 4 of Shinkenger, but a good episode at that. The puns are aplenty and still annoying, but the acting is a bit better. The writing is good but the dialogue could be improved. The added twist that Ryan's dad is an American solider in a war is a nice touch. But it could had been expanded on a bit more. Children shows have had discussed the Iraq War, like Hannah Montana. The boy's Australian accent doesn't bug me that much. In Shinkenger, Pink had a thing for lost causes, as Blue as acting. That story quirk is not present here, which i think is good.
It doesn't seem that Mia has dreams of being a bride, like in Shinkenger, but she is a bad cook as well, which I don't appreciate (that women that can't cook being funny). The Bulk and Spike parts were minimal and them being at the baseball game didn't seem to have a reason and they don't seem to be tied with the Ranger team. One thing I was surprised they kept it in was Red making a 'dream vision' come out--his dad. It looks a bit strange in this context. It makes sense and it's fine in Japan, as it is a cultural thing. When I first saw the title 'Deal with' I thought they had to deal with him, but I now realize they meant the boy made a deal with the Nighlok.
