Power Rangers Cosmic Fury - Beyond Repair - Episode Review

 SPOILER ALERT



Billy does measurements on Javi's arm and Solon brings him a hot chocolate. Billy says he will help Solon and calls Javi a hero. Javi worries about telling his parents. Amelia and Ollie's mom have lab jackets on. Billy has a heart to heart with Javi. Amelia holds Ollie's hand. Ollie's mom sprays the antidote on Ollie. Aiton tells Mick where Zayto fell in. Mick says Aiyon shared the memory with him many times. Mick is in the Grizzly zord cockpit in his Ninja Steel Red uniform. Mick flies away from Earth in the bear zord. Back at Aiyon's cafe, Izzy as the Green Ranger has a meeting with her dad (who doesn't know it is her), Jane, and J-Borg. Green says they have told world leaders of the possible invasion. Green says Zedd knows who they are and where they are from. Aiyon arrives and gets a coffee for Carlos. Carlos tells her he doesn't want to worry his daughter and son. Jane says Javi is at a fancy recording studio recording a demo and Izzy is ready to go to college with her girlfriend. Izzy takes this to heart. They all agree not to tell anyone about Zedd yet until they have more info.

Back with Zedd, he gets interrupted by Squilla with his secret plan. He gets a message from Doodrip who stole a Squid Drill. He wants his job back, he stole Squilla's drill. Zedd decides to take credit for Doo Drip's hard work. Ollie wakes up and Amelia thinks it works. Ollie tries to reach for Lani's teleporter. They lock Ollie in and Amelia teleports out. The poison has corrupted his Ranger energy. Lani says she is focusing her energy on facts and asks about the poison. Amelia says he gets his energy from Dino Henge. Fern and Izzy pack for college. Fern asks if everything is okay but Izzy thinks back to what Carlos said and claims the Ranger business was fine and in space. Fern asks if she is still planning to go to college. Izzy says she is great at multitasking. Just then, Solon calls Izzy.  Izzy says she will be at Fern's at 3. She teleports away. 

Izzy wants to take the zords into orbit to fight the Mega Drill. Javi says he can't morph since he is down an arm. Amelia says to take his time. Billy says it is an honor to fight with the younger generation. Aiyon says he is the older generation. Izzy says he was unconscious for 65 million years so it doesn't count. Amelia, Izzy, Zayto, and Billy morph. The Rangers take the zords and fight the Mega Drill of Doodrip. Doodrip calls them. Aiyon calls him "Blue Goo Guy" which reminds me of Blue Globber from Season 3 of MMPR. Scorpion, Lion, Bull, Wolf, and Chameleon combined. Aiyon is in the Scorpion zord, Izzy is in the Bull Zord and the Chameleon is on remote. They do the COsmic Mega Blast and the Drill goes down and Doodrip is destroyed. 


Solon calls them back. Javi uses his new arm but has trouble syncing with it. Billy says the sync rate will fluctuate. He almost hits a red button they can not press, it hasn't been pressed in 65 million years. They encourage Javi. Ollie is still trying to escape. Lani wants to harness the energy from the Tricera Statue. Billy asks about Amelia's parents being evil, Amelia says it has been a saga.  They plan to sanitize his corrupted link to the Morphin Grid.  Fern goes looking for Izzy to no avail, she then thinks of checking Dino Henge. In Dino Henge, Izzy creates an Invisi Cloak. Billy and AIyon keep an eye out and AIyon spots Zentinels. Billy fights them. Aiyon spots Fern. Fern encounters Zentinels. Aiyon tells Billy who she is. Izzy wants to go but Amelia offers, Javi offers instead and morphs and teleports. Javi saves Fern but his arm jams. Lani links the machine. Ollie acts like a good guy to trick Amelia, she is not falling for it. 


Amelia morphs. Fern asks what is up with Javi's arm. He asks if Izzy told her. They teleport in the base. Fern goes to the bathroom. Amelia fights Ollie, Javi grabs him. They teleport outside. They blast Ollie. The shield goes down. The Zentinels find Dinohenge. Zedd arrives. Solon leaves. Zedd blasts the Rangers. Zedd destroys the statues except for Ollie's. They lose their powers. Ollie convinces Zedd to spare the statue so he can serve him. Ollie scratches Amelia's face with his sword. The Rangers enter the base. Zedd calls a Squidrill. A Squiddrill drills into the ground. The alarms go off in the base. Aiyon wants to press the button. Solon asks if they are sure and she presses it. Zedd and Ollie find it is gone. Zenitenls take the Tricera Statue away. The Rangers arrive on a deserted planet Erridus, which is similar to Earth but 30 million light years away. They are stranded on the planet. Amelia says they tried helping Ollie and Zayto is missing and they are without powers but she refuses to give up. They have Billy and Solon and they will survive. Izzy says it is no big. Fern comes to them and asks if it is no big. Izzy is shocked. 

Franchise Shout-Outs:
* Fern mentions NASADA


Episode Review:
No, no Cosmic Fury suits just yet. They actually transform in episode 3. All the 10 zords all came out in Episode 1, while in Kyuranger they took a while and the bear came a while later. The bears actually appeared after the dragon. I like the moments with Ollie's mom Lani and Billy. Supposedly according to Simon Bennett, Ollie's acto Kai couldn't commit to the season and could only do Voice Over so they decided to make him evil, so that's why he appears so little physically in other episodes.  This is a good episode to explain how they lost their powers. The pacing is great. Just wish the rest of the season had this balanced pacing. The less of J-Borg, Jane and Buzz Blast the better. What is interesting is the choice of monsters from Sentai, they are not only from Kyuranger but from Zyuohger and other Sentai. Also, a pretty cool cliffhanger with Izzy and Fern.
