"The Ninja Encounter, Part 3"
Episode 24
Air Date: November 4, 1994

Omg!! What a great conclusion to this pointless 3 parter, it's like the writers really had to prolong things to make the introduction of these new characters special but like that unbearably long baby stroller chase, this episode is a damn dud and disappointing finish. The episode begins with the other rangers and Alpha tries to fear the other rangers who are frozen. It's taking to long if you ask me while Aisha, Rocky, Adam and Mr Anderson are watching as the snake....of I'm sorry....the serpent of darkness come closer to bite them to make them evil....forever!!! Anyway, once Billy's new device is able to free the others, the rangers must deal with Terror Blossom who is causing danger in the city as usual for monsters. The 6 rangers head back to action and fight off some Putties as Terror Blossom watches. Once the Putties are deposed of, Lord Zedd makes the monster grow and now the rangers have to summon their Thunderzords. I never noticed you can see the Red Dairanger on top of the Red Dragon Thunderzord...whoops!!!

Unfortunately, the fight doesn't go to well but Zordon's solution to the situation is having the rangers split their team again. I just can't with Zordon and his dumb mentoring at times. Why split them up now when they could have been split up earlier and cutting it so close??? It's sad when the main plot of an episode is so bad that I have more enjoyment out of watching a tedious, long segment of Bulk and Skull taking care of a little Jacob. So anyway, the rangers split up, leaving Jason and Zack to finish off the monster while the others FINALLY go save the others from the serpent of darkness. Hard to believe that was a real snake on poor Karan Ashley, she actually seems pretty calm, all things considered. Or maybe it's her terrible acting making it seem that way, I don't know. Billy and Trini finally make their way inside and Billy...sigh...wrestles the snake while Trini frees them and teleports away with Mr. Anderson to the park.

Outside, Rocky, Adam and Aisha join the rangers to help out in the fight as Kimberly tells them to go for the Z! Of course, they're adequate fighters and are able to handle themselves against the Putties, helping to defeat them. Meanwhile, Jason summons the Thunder Saber to finish off Terror Blossom as the monster is destroyed with the finisher. At the park, Trini teleports there with Mr. Anderson and returns him to his son with Bulk and Skull looking all proud that they did something right.  Back outside the dimension of despair, the rangers and their new friends head back into the cave where Billy is still wrestling that damn rubber snake when Kimberly grabs it and destroys it with her blade blaster. The next thing that happens is just dumb as the rangers want to check to see if Billy got bitten and just reveal their identities to Rocky, Adam and Aisha, knowing full well they're there. Why not have one of you teleport Billy to safety instead of revealing his and your identities. Now we get this forced scene of Zordon making the three swear that they will never reveal the identities of the Power Rangers when they should have just followed Zordon's rules of not revealing their damn identities!!! EHHHH....

THIS three parter was awful!!! O_o It just dragged from episode to episode with relatively nothing really happening besides the introduction of Aisha, Adam and Rocky. Also one character, Mr. Anderson, we'll probably never see again!!! Just lame!!!
