Day 5: The Song of Guitardo

So we begin. Camera zoom on Kimberly as he plays her guitar, Zack enters, the two begin to write beautiful music together. Dramatic cut to Lord Zedds lair. He spies the two and decides to create a monster based on music, and Kim's guitar. But the brilliant Goldar quickly points out the flaw in Zedd's plan. "A guitar is made out of wood it's not alive, so you can't make a monster!" This dumbfounded me as an episode ago he made a monster out of a poster. Anyway, Zedd see's this flaw and settles on making the monster out of an insect in the wood. A cicada, how perfect.

"Ohhh yeah, so Hawt."
Speaking of perfect, we see the power rangers spending a "perfect day," picnicking in the park. Richie rides up on his bike with his amazing headgear. Trini asks him to stay, but he quickly rides away. I'm not sure if he's just a bad actor or really is trying to ditch her. Then Bulk and Skull launch their amazing plan to attract the Power Rangers. I'll just post a picture and save myself the agony of description... Let me just say he makes a beautiful damsel in distress.

The gang shows up to see what the two idiots are doing and teach them why its wrong to cry wolf. Bulk and Skull brush off this advice and continue playing dress up.

We are subjected to more B&S shenanigans until they are attacked by a giant monster Cicada whose voice is even more high pitched then the Venus fly trap. And his name is even more ridiculous, Guitardo.

I don't know if anyone has been counting how many times that names been said already in the episode but that number is about to climb exponentially thanks to Zordon.

"I can't either Zack."
Tommy gets scanned by Alpha and is told his powers could fail at any time. We also learn there is no way to re-energize him.After the in depth description of Guitardo's power and weakness the Rangers are deployed to stop it.

The Rangers try to block out the musical powers but eventually succumb to its terribleness. Zack is the first to be affected and is lifted into the air shouting, "I CAN'T TAKE MUCH MORE OF THIS!" 

The rest of the rangers all fall to the Guitardo's sweet licks and begin to float in the air. Kimberly escapes and it's Tommy to the rescue!  Jeeze, for a guy who's powers are so weak he seems to use them an awful lot.

Guitardo flees to the fair, and Tommy pursues him, leaving the other rangers floating around alone. The Green Ranger battles with Guitardo until it gains the upper hand. The pink ranger shows up and saves him with her own musical power from her bow. You might be saying "What?!" like I was but it's okay because her bow strings actually double as a harp.  The Rangers combine weapons and destroy the Cicada, freeing the others in the process. Thank god, if i had to listen to anymore music puns I would have cut off my ears and fed them to my cat. That might of actually been a good thing because after the rangers regroup we have to listen to Kim's heartfelt song for Tommy.

Ugh. I'd rather watch an hour of B&S than listen to that again...




"GUITARDO GUITARDO GUITARDO!"
As a side note, if you want a good drinking game watch this episode and drink every time they say Guitardo.
