Power Rangers Dino Fury - Missing Pieces - Episode Review


 Episode Summary:

Void Knight fixes Shipwreck and Occulo arrives, saying he can see through anything. Slyther has an amulet to mess with the memory of the Rangers. Solon is having a cyborg update from Ollie. Zayto and Aiyon are searching the universe for Rafkon which probably moves in eons. Amelia forgets how she hurt her shoulder. Aiyon suggests using the light dino key, which repels witch spells. Amelia feels the same. Javi thinks of making a portal to Rafkon. Solon wakes up, she says they won't be able to find it. She decides to make another calculation on it. Later. Javi and Izzy are walking down steps when they get called by Solon about a Sporix. They spot it but Ocolio and Slyther get there before. The siblings morph and fight.

Javi uses the Flare Key and uses the Flare Flash on the villains. Izzy tries hitting him but he dodges. The others arrive. Slyther mixes up their memory and tells them a story to confuse them. They are hypnotized. The villains leave. Solon says she has found Rafkon. The Rangers tell Solon what happened--or not happened. They talk about pickles. Solon thinks they have been messing with their memories. Rafkon shows Splon the false memory. Solon says memory can be unreliable. Aiyon is untrusting of Solon. Ollie wants to do another update. Solon shows them the three suns on the map. Aiyon wants to go with Zayto. Zayto says he will be right back. Solon thinks Rafkon can wait. Solon reluctantly agrees and the T-Rex Cosmic Megazord is formed for Zayto. Zayto opens the gateway to Rafkon. He enters outer space and finds the three suns but no Rafkon. He scans the star system. 

Back on Earth, Amelia's shoulder still aches and checks Buzzblast. She watches a video from Jane. J-Borg downloads about massage and massages Jane, very roughly. J-Borg massages her with her feet. Jane stops her. They roll another clip of when they spot Occulo and the Rangers fought him. The Rangers don't recall this. The beast through Pink on a column and she figures out why her shoulder hurts. They figure out Solon was right. Zayto finds a message beacon, but no planet. The message makes a sound he knows. The Rangers get an alert about Oculo. Zayto has the Light Key which they need. The Rangers teleport away. The Rangers arrive and morph. They fight Hengemen. Occulo does an attack. Slyther mixes up their memories once again. Red arrives on his cycle. 

He takes the Amulet and destroys it. Zayto uses the Light Key and uses the Spell Breaker. All the Rangers fight the villains, except for Mucus, of course. Blue and Black use Flare and Slick Keys to blind the villains. The Rangers slash at Ocolo. They use their keys and do the "Dino Fury Force" attack. Void Knight arrives and stops them. He says he is sick and tired. He races towards them and they fight. He slashes the ground. Everyone drops down. The villains exit. (Mucus says "pay rises" but I think she meant "Pay raises.") Void Knight doesn't have enough Sporix to power her machine. The Rangers apologize to Solon. Aiyon asks Zayto what he found, he says there are suns but no planet. He plays the message for them. Amelia says it sounds familiar. It's the old broadcast from Space. Ollie figures they are puzzle pieces. They play them at the same time and they heat an English message. All the Rangers say they want to find it. 


Episode Review:

Interesting episode, I like the concept of the Rangers already had a memory wipe and not aware of it. Unfortunately, it goes nowhere, the plot is overshadowed by Zayto looking for Zayto. Also, it is not a normal episode as there is a Megazord but no Megazord battle, which is fine by me. I wish the memory wipe came with a flashback to an actual memory that tied to the messages. Maybe that would've felt more complete. Also an interesting way to tie in Jane and J-Borg in the episode is watching videos of them.
