Circuit
was the perfect computer until the Time Force Rangers asked him
to tell them about the near future and his memory banks went
haywire. Since then, the Rangers wouldn't let him help out for
fear of him glitching again. Meanwhile, Ransik sent one of his
mutants into a science building to set off a self-destruct
mechanism while the scientists were trapped inside. Why would a
building need a self-destruct mechanism? I should really stop
asking such silly questions. Anyway,
Trip and Circuit managed to sneak inside the control room.
Trip did his best to
deprogram the countdown, but wasn't having any luck. He asked
Circuit for help, but Circuit was so afraid of making a mistake
that he wouldn't budge. Eventually the countdown already expired
and the only thing stopping the building from blowing up was the
Rangers holding open the sealing doors. Even then, Circuit would
not try for fear of making things worse. Really, Circuit, I
DON'T THINK THINGS CAN GET ANY WORSE!!
Argh, this is the only
episode where Circuit annoys me. It could've been about
regaining self-confidence, believing in yourself even if you
screwed up before, but nooo... I guess that's too deep for Power
Rangers. Instead, Alex buzzes in and tells Circuit that he
didn't malfunction after all. It was Alex who erased his memory
banks because he was about to reveal compromising information to
the Rangers. Knowing this, Circuit jumps in and shuts down the
self-destruct mechanism.
Later, when the Rangers
are about to fight the giant-form mutant, Circuit intentionally
flies into an oncoming laser blast to shield them. Heroic maybe,
but STUPID!! Now the Rangers can't call their Megazord!!
This is where Eric comes
in. See, all this time Eric has been fighting that mutant.
Before it went giant form, they even had an old-fashioned duel.
Though the mutant shot
first, Eric did his signature
drop-and-shoot which landed a solid
hit. Then Eric brought out
his Quantasaurus and finally defeated the giant form of the
mutant, with marginal help from the Time Force Rangers' jet
blasts.
Unfortunately, nothing
Yaoi really happens in 36... they don't even talk. ~_~ |
