Angel Grove Radio

It's a stupendous saturday

And a big hello goes out
to Ernie and the kids

at the Angel Grove Youth Center
Gym and Juice Bar.

Keep those fruit shakes flowing,
Ernie.

Yeah!

Nice recovery, Zack.

- Yeah, thanks for teaching me, Jason.
- No problem.

- That was awesome, Kimberly.
- Thanks, Trini.

- Hey, fellas.

Well, I think I'm mentally and physically
prepared for my first karate class.

Oh no, look who's here.

Bulk and Skull.

Hi, girls.

Sorry, guys.

What's the matter?
We're not good enough for ya?

Yeah. Make me!

Him. Make him.

Hey, you heard what she said.

Oh, what do you know?
The dancer wants to be a fighter.

It's okay, Zack,
we can handle these two.

- Oh, really? - Let's show 'em
some karate move, Skull.

You guys should definitely join
Jason's karate class.

Oop.

- Yes, I like it.
- Good.

- Whew!
- Ooh!

Finster!
Start making putty patrollers!

Yes, my queen.

I'll lead them down

Yeah.

Yah!

Billy, try this.

I'm just not good at this.

Billy, don't worry. I mean,
even I was a beginner once.

[Japanese?]

All right, class, what is it... that martial
arts... helps us to develop?

Billy?

Courage, kindness, integrity,
fitness, loyalty and discipline.

That's good; you memorized that
very quickly, Billy.

Hey!

Geek.

- Teach us... how to beat people up.
- Yeah!

Martial arts was not developed...
to hurt others.

We did not sign up
for a geeky karate class.

Okay, Bulk.
Maybe you're ready for some more...

- advanced training techniques.
- Oh. Okay.

Try this.

Side kick.

Anything you can do...,
I can do better, baby.

Tornado kick.

Class dismissed.

Billy, I'm telling you,
for your first lesson...,

you did really well.

- I did?
- Yeah, we were watching you.

I don't know
if I've got what it takes.

It's all a state of mind, Billy.
You don't need to be strong

- for martial arts.
- Yeah, man, it's all up here.

- Hey, guys.
- Hey, Ernie.

Who ordered the spinach juice?

Oh no! It's an earthquake!
Everybody, stay calm!

Sorry, Bulk!

Oh, man, it must be the big one!

Something tells me
this is no earthquake!

Danger. Danger!

It's the big one! I know it!
We'll all be destroyed!

Calm down, Alpha. It's Rita. She's escaped,
and she's attacking the planet.

Ay yi yi! What do we do?!

Teleport to us five overbearing
and overemotional humans.

No! Not that!

Not teenagers!

- That's correct, Alpha.
- I was afraid of that.

Oh my gosh!
What's happening?!

- This is too weird.
- Hold on!

Isn't exactly the mall, is it?

This place is magnificment!

I don't get it.
How'd we end up here?

I just want to know
where here is.

Well, maybe the answer's
in these controls.

No! No, don't touch that!
Whoa... Whoa!

Wow!

A fully sentient, multifunctional
automaton!

Never seen anything like it.

Wow.

Welcome, humans!

Uh-oh.

- So, who are you?
- Like, what are you?

I am Zordon,
an interdimensional being

- caught in a time warp.
- And my name is Alpha 5.

Excuse me, but will, like, somebody
come back to Earth and pick me up?

- Because I am totally confused.
- It's quite simple, my dear.

This planet is under attack, and
I have brought you here to save it.

- Oh yeah, right.
- Ah! A nonbeliever.

Look behind you
at the viewing globe.

Your doubts will be answered
in the images you'll see.

This is Rita Repulsa...,
an intergalactic sorceress

who is bent on controlling
the universe.

With her henchmen and putty patrollers,
she plans to conquer Earth.

What does all of this...
have to do with us?

You've been chosen to form an elite
team to battle Rita.

Each of you will be given access
to extraordinary powers

drawn from the ancient creatures...
you call dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs?!

Behold!
The keys to your power.

- Whoa. What are these?
- Those are your power morphins.

When in danger, raise them to the sky
calling the name of your dinosaur.

And you will morph
into a formidable fighting force

known to one and all...
as the Power Rangers.

- Morph?
- Metamorphosis.

That means to change.

As Power Rangers, you will have access
to a universe of power...

and will command a fleet
of fighting machines called "Zords".

I don't get it.

Jason, bold and powerful,

you shall command
the Tyrannosaurus Dinozord.

Zachary, you are clever and brave.

You shall command
the Mastodon Dinozord.

Kimberly,
graceful and smart [small?!].

Pterodactyl Dinozord
shall be yours.

Billy, patient and wise.

You shall command
the powerful Triceratops Dinozord.

Trini, fearless and agile.

The Sabretooth Tiger Dinozord
will be under your command.

Observe the viewing globe.

Just as the five of you
work together,

so do your Zords.
When you need help,

you need only to turn
to the power of the Dinozords,

which will come together
to form the mighty Megazord.

Power morphers?
Megazords?

Uh-uh. This is
just too weird for me.

I'll tell you what,
it's been real, but... I gotta go.

Yeah, see you.

Y'all comin'? Jason?
Jason!

- What?
- Let's go, man!

Yeah.

Very well, then.
Let the power protect you.

Well, now, that didn't go very well,
did it?

Ay yi yi.

Great!

He could have sent us back
into town.

Zordon! I'm surprised.
Teenagers?

So you think you can
stop me, do you?!

Finster, hurry up
with those putty patrollers!

Yes, Your Evil Badness,
I'm holding the last ones now.

Those putties will make
space dust out of those kids!

And the beauty is, if they don't,
we can always make more.

Now, into the monster-matic, they go.
Ten seconds should do it.

Now, my putties, prepare
to get those teenagers!

Guys, we shouldn't've left.

I mean, he chose us
to save the world.

- I say we do it.
- Do you really think we can?

Hey, guys. I mean, you don't even know
what you're talking about.

We were talking
to a giant floating head.

Those stupid teenagers
don't know who they're messing with!

Ah!

Get the putties!
It's time.

All right. Take that! Bah!

- Everybody down!
- What was that?!

Hey.

Look out!

Let go of me!

- Zack!
- Right. These two are mine.

Wait!

- This day is too weird.
- What do we do now?

Zordon said these power morphins
would give us power. Let's do it!

- Mastodon!
- Pterodactyl!

- Triceraptops!
- Sabretooth Tiger!

Tyrannosaurus!

- Power Rangers!
- Zordon, they've done it!

- They made the metamorphosis!
- Good.

Teleport them to Angel Grove City.
Rita just sent down Goldar.

Right away, Zordon.

- We're teleporting again!
- Where are we going?!

- We're going to save the world.
- Go, Go, Power Rangers

They're pathetic!

How about making Goldar big
with your wand?!

I always have to do
everything myself!

- Finster, I'll deal with your later!
- Oh. Oh, dear.

Magic wand..., make my Goldar grow!

Cool it, man! [?]

Look at him!
That dude's huge!

- Back off, fang face!

- Affirmative! I do too.

It's almost like
second nature to me.

All right, guys!
Let's go get them!

Right!

You and your weapons
are no match for me!

All right, guys! Let's see
what this baby can do!

Yeah! Zap him again!

This is all your fault, Squatt!
You should've helped!

- Goldar, you failed!
- It won't happen again, Empress!

Shut up! I've got a headache!

It was amazing. I was like [...]

Congratulations on a job well done.

Now that you have become
Power Rangers,

you must follow three basic rules...

or lost the protection of the power.

First: never use your power
for personal gain.

Second: never escalate a battle
unless Rita forces you.

And finally,
keep your identity secret.

No one may know
you are a Power Ranger.

- Oh, wait a second.
- Yes, Zachary? What is it?

I'm not sure we're all up
to this. I mean...,

we were pretty lucky this time.

Luck had nothing to do with it.
The five of you have come together

to form
as fine a group of superheroes...

- as there has ever been.
- No way.

Really?!

You've had an extraordinary
experience together!

You need each other now,
and the world needs you.

Yeah. All right, I'm in.

- Me too.
- You can count on me.

- Affirmative.
- I don't know, you guys.

I mean, the outfits
are cool and everything,

but my hair gets all tangled up
inside the helmet.

- I don't think I can do it.
- Oh no. Kimberly.

Kimberly, no!

Not!

Got ya!

Circuit overload!
Circuit overload!

- Ay yi yi yi yi!
- Alpha!

Don't blow a fuse!
You guys, I was just kidding!

[...] yi. Oh. Humor.
What a concept.

Let's do it.

Power Rangers!
