Comments

Well this part diffinitly topped part two.  The revelation of Tommy as the White Ranger was seen by many homes at the time . Many kids were no doubt happy to have their favorite Rangers back.  It was cool how they continued to build suspense till Tommy was revealed. They had The Rangers discuss it amnongst themselves. One of the rare times you had the original Rangers act emotionally vunerable/ . Something we wouldn't see till seasons later. It was  awesome  seeing the White Ranger decend to thw Rangers. The part where kimberly fainted was a little corney. But fits in with classic MMPR. It was great when Tommy finally revealed himself. Its always funny seeing him be made leader over Jason, especially because Jason gave no argument about it. Not that Jason would, just doesn't fit the MMPR characters ( who always valued teamwork above all else). Plus we know that leadership line was dubbed in during post production, after Austin St John left the show. After the Tommy revealiztion it was all action. We got a pretty good battle between the Rangers and the putties. All the while seeing Tommy debout his new Tigerzord against the Scarlet Sentinal. The scene where Tugerzod falls over seemed very funny to most of the kids I talked to at the time. Tigerzord ended u being a pretty cool zord though. The finisher was pretty unique for its time,. with the targeting background. The Rita Subplot never really amounted to much in this episode. And was more filler. But it did serve to remind us that Rita was still put there. I suspect they already knew Rita would be brought back during th Wedding. And if that is true it made sense to have Rita come back like this, to let us know she was still capable of returning. I suppose you could call this episode,  the peak of the Tommy character in MMPR. Overall a true classic that any PR Fan wouild love, unless of course you hate Tommy.
