Season 5, Episode 25: When Time Freezes Over

"When Time Freezes Over"
Episode 25
Air Date: September 19th 1997

Well, isn't this a clever episode, that sees Divatox coming up with another plan see fails at but at least thinking of a way to come back from that. When the rangers foil her latest plan by destroying her missile carrying a freeze key, she realizes she can just get another chance with her latest monster, Clockster.  Clockster has the ability to reverse or accidentally forward time in a hilarious moment where Divatox orders him to go BACCCKKKWARRDDD!!!  By reversing time, Divatox is able to go back in time to stop the rangers from stopping her before by saving her freeze key.  Unfortunately, Alpha 6 and Dimitria can't help the rangers as they are stuck in the time wrap as well.

With the freeze key now in her possession again, Divatox plans to freeze the Earth instead of the sun this time.  But when Clockster accidentally touches the freeze key, time itself freezes as well as T.J., Cassie and Ashley who are looking for the whereabouts of the freeze key as time is stopped to stand still.  When it's up to Carlos and Justin to save the day, they morph and teleport to the cave (how did they find out where they were??? O_o) and try to take the freeze key but are frozen as well.  Luckily, the Phantom Ranger is there, unaffected by the time freeze.  He teleports the rangers away while taking the freeze key as well.  When time is back to normal, Divatox is of course, upset and plans to get it back yet again.

The rangers are lured to a roof top in the city where Elgar and Clockster are added by a swarm of Piranathron.  They fight but when Clockster begins messing with time again, time reverses until the beginning of the fight.  Eventually Divatox loses her patience and orders the torpedoes to be fired.  Clockster grows and we get very quick zord fight with the Turbo Megazord making quick work of him.  The episode ends with Justin giving the freeze key to Lt. Stone after fixing it by not making it as powerful as it was before.  Bulk and Skull continue to annoy but it's good to have them back I guess.  Shut UP!!! -_-  Overall, "When Time Freezes Over" was a fun and clever episode featuring some of Divatox's better plans.

Final Morph: B+
