Episode Review:

It was a great episode as it dealt with character development and tied in Victor and Monty. While they gave a reason to the Elemental Stars but again, we are treated to a zippity-do-dah explanation to the Megazord cockpit, And we are treated to yet another Red Ranger episode when it was clearly a Yellow Ranger episode from Ninninger. It would have been great to have a Calvin episode to get to know him and maybe a clear indication if he and Hayley are in a relationship or not. Many fans complained how Troy was just a blank character and robotic but I don't like how Tyler and Brody are too smile-y. Even when they do something childish, they just justify it with a shrug and a smile. I can go on how Tyler baby-cried to Shelby when she said he might not find his dad. And Shelby didn't even do it in a big sister is punishing you manner but in a rational manner.
