Power Rangers Dino Fury - New Leaf - Episode Review

 Episode Summary:

Void Queen makes a Sporix rise which has toxic venom. Void Knight arrives. He says hurting humans I unneccessary. He says he wasn't meaning to hurt people. She wants people to suffer. Ollie is talking to his mom on a webcam, when she tells him about a Professor Floyd he likes. Javi says Amelia is interviewing him. Professor Fkiyd arrives and meets Amelia. He and Ollie reunite. Professor likes her bracelet which Ollie makes fun of. Professor is nice. Ollie apologizes about her. He tells her not to dismiss ideas too quickly. He calls him out on his attitude, saying he is a know-it-all. He pushed the other students away. Ollie says to Amelia that he doesn't listen--and doesn't listen to her. She politely excuses herself.

Jane talks. A tentacle makes the hot tub spin around and takes away the phone. They see a tentacle from a taxi. Squash Light and Void Knight arrive and Jane and J-Borg run off. Squash Blight makes the water purple and freezes people. Jane slows down and freezes up, becoming a tree. J-Borg screams for her. Void Knight watches a man plead for his daughter. Gold blasts them. Squash Blight says his shell is indestructible. The Rangers throw their daggers on him. Squash Blight says he will fill the water with venom and leaves. Ollie gets the pool water for Solon to test. Javi says he will tell his dad to tell the city to stay away from the water. Back at the lab, Ollie sees the venom under a microscope without gloves. Solon makes lame jake. Amelia arrives. The venom boils. Amelia wants to turn it down, Ollie gives an attitude. The venom covers Solon and she becomes a tree. 

Ollie asks Amelia for help. At the evil base, they plan to put venom in the river. Squash Light says he wilts in the dark. Void Knight shows Void Queen the spaceship to escape Earth and she destroys it. She drops Void Knight to the ground. Amelia suggests using her bracelet, he gives attitude. He then apologizes and they use the bracelet. The iron gets on the bracelet. They make a liquid and spray Solon and she returns to normal. The villains go to the river. The Rangers arrive, morph and fight. They try fighting Squash Light but it is hard. Shipwreck tells him to go to Plan B. Back at the villain lair, Void Light and Vid Queen talk. Void Knight says she must be defeated. He teleports away. She says that was a bad idea. T-Rex and Ptera Zord are deployed. Void Knight arrives and says he is not there to fight. He tells them about Void Queen and to defeat Squash Blight. Shipwreck calls him a traitor and leaves.



The Zords fight Squashblight. Squash Blight starts making a storm cloud of venom to rain. Ollie thinks if they get him in the clouds, they can soften him up. They call Pacha Zord and make a new Megazord--Pyera Smash Ultrazord. The Rangers enter the cockpit and fight. They slash him in a tornado. They call the Megafury Saber. They do a combined attack and destroy him. The clouds dissipate. Zayto gets the Sporix. They return the people back to normal from trees. J-Borg hugs Jane. Back at Buzz Blast, Zayto doesn't believe Void Knight was genuine. Ollie thanks the Professor and says he will listen more often. The Professor says it is great. Ollie goes to Amelia. He thanks her. She says they make a pretty good team. He apologizes for mocking her. He tells her he respects her. She says apology accepted. They hug. She says nothing has changed. She ordered a spook snare for her. He says he can deal with pink.

Episode Review:
Squash Blight's accent was cool. Squash Blight mentioning his weak point to Void Knight out of nowhere was a bit lazy writing. Void Queen's intentions and characterizations are still on the 2-dimensional side, we need to know more. That being said, I like an outside character is calling Ollie out on his behavior. The octopus avoiding Jane and J-Borg was random but I hope it returns. They need a nemesis. Also, the other Rangers should've found a solution for Squash Blight's shell instead of doing nothing while Ollie and Amelia made the antidote for the venom. But of course, if they did, Void Knight's insider info wouldn't have been valuable. But at least a throwaway line on what the others were doing in the mean time or at least considered it.
