Season 10, Episode 38: Sealing The Nexus

"Sealing The Nexus"
Episode 38
Air Date: November 2nd, 2002

So here we are at the penultimate episode of the season as the rangers continue to look aimlessly for Princess Shayla and getting one last glimpse of the Wild Forced Rider (Stupid toy marketing!!! -_-)  Meanwhile, Jindrax and Toxica are planning to hide from Master Org's radar when Toxica learns he still has the Princess, which means if he has her necklace then he'll have enough power to find them anywhere and destroy them.  So in a last minute decision of desperation to protect themselves, the two Duke Orgs confront the rangers and make a deal with them to help them save the Princess.  At least the rangers here are more skeptical of their help, especially considering last time Jindrax tricked them so nice there that the rangers are actually learning.  So apparently, Jindrax and Toxica know where the Nexus is but only Orgs can navigate it and gain entry.  Unfortunately, Master Org has put a forcefield over the Nexus that can only be destroy by destroying 3 statues that protect the Nexus. Toxica tells them to look for the 3 pillars of light to find the statues but to be careful as they are very likely to be guarded.  After an uneasy agreement to their alliance, Toxica and Jindrax head for the Nexus while the rangers morph, split into teams and head out to find the statues.

Meanwhile, Master Org and Princess Shayla get into it about Dr. Alder and his past, but Master Org being resolute that he far from being human again and no amount of forgiveness will change that.  Gotta aodre Princess Shayla's plight and trying to reason with who Master Org use to be, but he is clearly so far gone and more a monster than ever; continuing to make excuses why there is no turning back for him  Honestly, this whole arc with Master Org has been one of the darkest and most morbid tales for a main villain thus far but I get more in-depth in my overview.  Also, when did Cole forgive Master Org for killing his parents...HUH??? O_o  Anyway, Master Org, in wanting to protect the Nexus from anyone's interference while he completes his ritual; summons the spirits of the 3 fallen general Orgs in Nayzor, Mandilok and Retinax.  Honestly, it's just plain awesome to see all 3 General Orgs back and each team of 2 rangers having to take them on to complete their mission.  The action scenes are brutal as the rangers are clearly outmatched by each general with only there being two rangers each to confront them.

But luckily, the rangers come a long way and instead of some last minute new weapon, new zord, etc. to come and save, they have to force themselves to fight even harder than usual when all hope seems lost.  Gotta love Taylor, Merrick and especially Danny owns their respective generals so Alyssa, Max and Cole can complete the mission at hand.  Meanwhile, Toxica and Jindrax wait at the entrance of the Nexus as they wait for the rangers to destroy the statues to gain entry.  After Alyssa, Max and Cole finally destroy each statue, all 6 rangers reunite to fight all 3 Org generals together while Toxica and Jindrax make their way into the Nexus.  Apparently, Master Org's ritual includes some Org Heart he summons and then eats....ummm yuck...which soon causes the Nexus to begin to be destroyed.  As the General Orgs combine their weapons to defeat the rangers, the rangers soon combine their own to create the Jungle Blaster to destroy the 3 once and all.  Not the biggest  and most epic brawl considering they were fighting 3 of the most strongest enemies this season, the finale will make up for that of course.  As Toxica and Jindrax free the Princess, with Toxica getting jealous Jindrax's affection toward the Princess, quickly make their way out of the Nexus as it literally falls apart...but not before witnesses Master Org begin to turn to ashes.  As all three finally escape the Nexus just as it's destroyed, the rangers reunite with them and celebrate the Princess' freedom.  The episode resolves with Jindrax and Toxica making peace with the Wild Force Rangers as they declare the war between Orgs and humans over.  As Toxica and Jindrax leave, can't help but feel sad that we'll never see them again as they not only made for great villains but even more amazing characters; especially when together! :)  A superb pregame before the final two episodes of the season and the dawn of the final battle! :)
