Episode 16
Air Date: May 14th, 1996

Omg!!! This is one of those multiparters that should have been only ONE episode instead of stretched out to three!!! I am beginning to think the soul purpose of these two episodes were simply to get the cast to have a snow trip and for the writers to set up Tommy's new love interest in Kat. I mean come on, when she's all staring off in the distance because of Tommy's lonely heart. We've known Kat has been interested in Tommy since last season but the way the writers are transitioning Tommy and Kimberly to Tommy and Kat is terrible writing; especially when it makes Kimberly looks like a heartless bitch!!! -_- Oh and this episode is filled with more cheesy and tacky long sequences of the rangers and Heather on their Ski trip and it just makes me want to fall asleep so quick. Also, I'm not buying the chemistry between Tommy and Heather. She takes him up to the mountains for a nice view and they have this forced moment of talking about Kimberly....I just.....EEWWWWW!!!

Anyway, if that wasn't bad enough, the episode opens with an anti-climatic sequence of Tommy and the others trying to save Heather. It's like a lost scene from an episode of Baywatch with the over dramatic absurdity of the situation is brought up to 100%!!! Don't get me wrong, I know the chick could fall to her death but this really isn't an interesting plot point. Anyway, the other rangers are busy back in Angel Grove dealing with Robo Cupid until the other rangers arrive. Soon after Heather is saved, Tommy and Katherine morph and reunite with the others. For some reason, they call on the Zeo Zords before Robo Cupid even grows just so Tommy can summon the Defender Wheel. O_o Ok, anyway, Tommy uses the Defender Wheel but it's ineffective as Klank swings Orbis around and throws him onto Robo Cupid to make her grow.

The rangers call on their zords, again, and form the Zeo Megazord to fight Robo Cupid. They continue the fight using different Zeo Battle Helmets like Zeo IV Battle Helmet before going back to Warrior Mode to finish off the monster with the Zeo Megazord Saber. Anyway, the episode is another forgettable mess. I mean they try to continue the story with having Mondo send down another monster to heat up the Earth's atmosphere but I'm pretty sure Part III will be another case of dosing off syndrome. I mean it's like the writers didn't even try with these episodes but I'll finish it off for dear life. Also, the episode ends so abruptly, it's kind of like what was the point of this episode in the first place.

Final Morph: D-
