"The Flute" September the Fourteenth, Two-Thousand and Two Written by Katie Torpey Directed by Worth Keeter
We're in the city, and Cole is taking a nice, leisurely stroll. Cole sees some pigeons by a trash can, and he walks over to them (you know what this means). He says hi to the pigeons and calls them "guys". He then asks them who is the leader there (I bet the leader is not a pigeon, but rather some animal like a falcon). One white pigeon deicdes to climb Cole's hand. Cole tells the pigeon he's looking for a 10 year-old by (I call him a....SUCKA!). Cole tells the pigeon brown hair, brown eyes. The pigeon's attention is elsewhere though (he probably sees an old man throwing bread elsewhere). Then Cole asks has the pigeon seen him, and the pigeon gives immediate attention. Cole somewhat nodds, and then realizes the pigeon said a week ago. Cole then tells the pigeon if the boy shows up again, to let him know. He sets the pigeon down (what? cole is going to give no food for them?). Now come Danny and Max. Danny tells Cole they've searched the whole area and they've found nothing. His arms are out. Cole has somewhat of a worried look on his face (wait a minute, what happened to the kid? wasn't he with the rangers and the Princess at the end of the last episode?). We see two Putrids dressed in chef outfits, and one is bringing a pretty fancy dish of something. Mandilok is sitting at a table, with Jindrax and Toxica standing and watching. They are atop a building (watch out for flies). Jindrax tells Mandilok that breakfast is served, and tells Mandilok "Bon appetite". Mandilok says it's very nice. Toxica says she knows how much "it" (remember, the gender of Mandilok is unknown) likes human made things. Toxica says it's a mixture of car parts, the motor of a washing machine (there's some familiar music playing now), and the wiring of an air conditioner. Then we hear the Princess's singing of "Ode to Nature (YAY!) while Mandilok's top voice laughs and bottom one says that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Mandilok then says it deserves a nice, relaxing breakfast after all it has, then he notices the singing. Both voices on Mandilok ask "What is that hideous noise?" (maybe it's your stomach). Jindrax says it's repulsive, and Toxica holds her ears. She grunts. Mandilok says the singing is ruining its breakfast, and asks what's that horrible music (then move inside you goon). Toxica then realizes it's the rangers and their Princess and the Lunar Wolf Ranger (yeah, those people who had Orgs running for the border last episode). Toxica says they play it every morning. Toxica grunts yet again. Jindrax asks if they actually call that music. Mandilok grunts again. We see the Animarium. The Princess is still singing. We see some pretty nice green grass (and I do repeat, GREEN) and we see the Princess and Merrick doing their duet to the Deer Wild Zord. She's at the point in the song of "I hurry from my sleep". The Deer Zord just stares and then feels warmed by it (maybe the Princess is warming the Deer up for a future battle). "You are every kind of flower every animal I meet". We focus on Merrick now, who is playing the flute (wooden I might add, just to note, Merrick's lips are not really playing the flute, but who cares). "FROM your SKIES, the snow gently FALLS to the EARTH". We see that sucka Kite. He just stares at some buildings. He then asks himeslf "Why does this song sound so familiar?" (maybe he heard it in "Sing Song" like the rest of us, but maybe he has bad memory). He then asks why does it bring tears to his eyes (well, come to think of it, the first time I heard it, I had chills, but it was a pretty good song). We then see some gas, and it goes into what looks like a pretty small, cramped store, and a flute goes into it and then it grows into an Org (who is colored white on the top and black on the bottom, the top of it looks like an ocarnia). The owner runs, as the Org says it's a music store with style. He then hears the Princess's singing, and goes out the door. He asks himself what is that amateurish drubble (is he talking about the Princess's singing or Merrick's flute playing?). The Org then tells himself that he's going to play some real music. He plays some tune, that could be in the next Zelda game. More like dancing in the streets in the 1800's. We hear that tune, over Merrick's flute playing on the Animarium (I'm going to pretend there was no Org that played a flute, just for fun). Merrick stops and looks at his flute, and the Princess stares strangely at Merrick. The Princess tells Merrick, "Merrick, that sounded awful" (ouch, busted). Merrick says it wasn't him (sure, it was the flute, typical 5-6th grade excuse when they mess up). The Princess agrees with me and the rest of the viewing audience, and says "yeah right". The Princess tells Merrick if he doesn't want to be here. Merrick stops for a second and asks her what she means. The Princess says that 3000 years ago, he used to enjoy their morning song together (maybe they should make it an afternoon maybe? and get a crowd of people, or maybe they could sell tickets?). The Deer Wild Zord groans, and the Princess tells Merrick that now playing his flute to the Deer Zord is a chore to him. Merrick then says "Maybe I LIKE being alone". The Princess then tells Merrick that maybe he doesn't like being with her and the rangers (yeah, he'd rather play pool with Willie). Merrick has nothing to say, and the Princess is having a fit. The Princess tells Merrick that he's a horrible musician and never wants to sing with him again (HAHA! I guess Merrick should have known to take those music lessons). The Princess is still enraged and she trots off. Merrick throws his arms off in frustration (maybe he should play a piccolo now). Merrick looks at the Deer Zord, and it groans. The Deer Zord gets mad, and it runs off. Merrick tells it to wait. Merrick looks back. We see Mandilok, and the top voice says that the Org's music is beautiful (I'd say). The bottom voice says it's Org music, and it can feel it in his gums. The top voice says find this musical Org and to bring him to it. Jindrax and Toxica say "yes Mandilok". We see Princess Shayla in the Temple Ruins, but she's not sitting in her usual chair. Alyssa walks out from the stairs, and she spots her. She asks the Princess isn't she supposed to be singing with Merrick. Princess Shayla says he's a horrible flutist, and knowing, a professional, and can't admit when he messes up (Merrick has got some ego). Alyssa smiles for a minute and asks if something happened between the two. The Princess says no, she just thinks Merrick is selfish and immature, and she says she doesn't like him. She immdeiately gets up, and says she's never going to sing with him again, and immediately gets up. The Princess said this in a manner that we've never seen her before. Alyssa tries to catch up with her, but then, the tron erupts with water. No one is there (maybe the Temple Ruins should install an alarm in each of the rangers' bed incase of early morning or late night attacks). We see some kids in a red playset with a slide. They look pretty young, not Kite's age (although I wouldn't be surprised if he were there). One kid says "my turn". We see the flute playing Org, continuing to play his tune. We see one girl jump roping, and she suddenly stops (she must want to do something out). Suddenly, all the kids do some yoga (I think it's called that). The kids wave their left and right arm to their respective direction. The kids turn themselves around, and continue to do the thing (whatever they're doing). The Org continues playing. The kids now do the figure skating thing where they put all their weight on one foot and lean on it. We see the Org playing his flute, and it's a pretty big flute. The Org has all of the kids dancing. We see all 6 rangers running to the school and Cole immediately jumps in the air. He kicks The Org and knocks him down. The rangers then stand in-front of the kids to protect them. The Org asks why did they do that for, they were dancing so beautifully to his be-bop original. Alyssa says those poor children were exausted. Alyssa then gets in her fighting stance. The Org then decides to play another tune. Merrick recognizes the tune, and says it's the same horrible flute he heard this morning. Cole has out his Lion Fang, and says that his spell doesn't work on them. The rangers go two-by-two with their weapons and they all are direct hits. The Org falls down and while on the ground, he says that no one appreciates jazz. Cole has his Lion Fang out still and says "Let's get him". Cole immediately charges, as do all the rangers, but they are blasted. Someone whispers "Flute Org, over here". Flute Org (his name now) looks over, and sees Jindrax and Toxica waving to him and urging him to go over there. Flute Org stumbles up and goes over to Jindrax and Toxica. The rangers finally get up and Taylor wonders where did they go (didn't they just see Flute Org run off with Jindrax and Toxica?). The rangers run over to the bridge where Flute Org just ran off. Cole says that hopefully, Flute Org went to a teacher to get some music lessons (maybe that's what Merrick should be doing). We're at the Nexus now, and Jindrax throws Flute Org to the ground and tells him to get on his knees and calls him "commoner". Mandilok sees it was the Org from earlier and describes it as the Org with the magical melody. It asks the Org if it can put the rangers under a spell. Flute Org says it can only control children, but if he had more power, he could get the rangers and grown-ups to dance as well. Mandilok agrees to giving Flute Org more power, and now it knows where to get it. Jindrax suspects trouble and Toxica says to get out of there. They both hurry off. Mandilok's voices say "Org powers, metamorphsize!". Mandilok sends out a green wave at the fleeing Toxica and Jindrax, and they both fall. Gold lightning energy goes to Flute Org. We see Flute Org's one eye, and he says he feels stronger already. We see Cole walking in the city, and we see tha boy Kite. He is stalking Cole. Cole walks through a flower shop and hat shop, and a cafe. He then notices something, so he pulls a mirror from the hat shop, and he looks at it, and he sees Kite hiding in the flowers (Kite has poor skills). Cole laughs, and walks towards the ice cream stand. Cole asks for two fudge bars. Kite continues to stalk. Cole gives the guy cash and he tosses a fudge bar at the stalking Kite. Cole asks Kite if he likes ice cream. Kite nodds yes, and for once, he seems happy. Kite notes that he's a ranger. Cole tells him not so loud (well, he wears a jacket that says "Blazing Lion" and he says the same words while he is morphed). He tells him to come on and they both leave. We're at the Temple Ruins, and Alyssa is telling the other rangers that she said "she" won't sing with him (No Princess in sight, Danny and Max sitting on the table, Alyssa walking around, and Taylor standing as usual). Danny says he's going to miss hearing their song. Max looks at Danny funny. Danny says it's catchy. Max shakes his head and then his eyes grow big when the Princess comes of the pool. Max says "Princess....uh". He then decides to tell her about the music the Org was making. He says he thought his head was going to explode. Alyssa says too bad they didn't get his flute, then for sure they wouldn't have to hear him play again. The Princess questions the word "flute". She asks if the Org plays a flute (maybe she wants Flute Org to accompany her now instead of Merrick). She has a blank stare in her eyes. Then, the tron immediately erupts. The Princess then says "WHAT?" as the pool flows with water. Taylor tells everyone "Guess who's back" (not Eminem). Cole and Kite are sitting on a bench. Cole asks Kite where his parents are (the fifth time I think someone has asked him that). Kite is holding his fudge bar and shakes his head and says he doesn't know. Cole asks him if he doesn't remember where he came from. Kite looks up and shakes his head. Cole tells Kite they have a lot in common. Just then, Cole's Growl Phone rings and he answers it. Cole says "yeah, I'll be right there". He tells Kite he's got to do something real fast, and he gives Kite his popsicle stick. Kite has a dumb look in his face. We see Flute Org atop a bridge (the same one the Galaxy rangers first appeared on in "Race to the Rescue"). The Flute Org is playing his masterpieces I guess, as everyone below him are doing yoga. One guy tries to break the motion and asks himself why can't he stop dancing. The Flute Org continues to play, and then he stops. He yells "DANCE!" twice, and says he's now powerful enough to control all of them forever and no one can stop him. Cole's voice is heard and he says "WE CAN!". Cole sticks his hand out and tells the Org to give them the flute. Flute Org says he'd rather use it to make them dance. Flute Org plays his flute and the Rangers charge, but they stop, and then, go into the dancing formation. Cole looks like he's doing the robot. Max thinks he's Michael Jackson. Taylor just moves her arms as does Danny. Alyssa does the funky chicken. Cole says he thought he could only make children dance. Max says "Okay, these moves are really out of date" as he does the Egyptian arms. Alyssa has a big grin on her face and says she used to love to dance. We see the action on the tron in the Temple Ruins. The Princess tells Cole that he's supposed to be fighting the Org. Cole says they're trying, but first, they have to try to break the dancing spell. The Princess holds her hands, and then we hear Merrick's voice, say "Princess". He walks out from behind a pillar, and he makes his first appearance in the Temple Ruins in probably 3000 years. The Princess asks what is he doing here. Merrick says she's right, he doesn't visit her. Merrick looks around and says it's difficult to be on the Animarium sometimes, it reminds him of so many things, his past, the ancient warriors, what life was like 3000 years ago. He says he knows it's time to accept what happened. The Princess has a look of understanding on her ace. Merrick finishes by saying it's so hard and looks down. Merrick looks down, but gets out his flute and wants her to know that he likes playing his flute for her. The Princess now smiles, as Merrick says he likes playing his flute for the Deer Zord too. The Princess realizes and tells Merrick she never thought of how hard it was for Merrick to come to the Animarium. She tells Merrick she's sorry she got angry. She holds his hands, and tells Merrick he's not an awful musician. Merrick looks like he's blushing, and the Princess and Merrick look at each other. Then, the Princess realizes that the rangers need them, and she grabs Merrick's hand and they both run off. Flute Org is now playing his tune in a different key. Alyssa is doing some weird dance, where she moves her arms, and then holds her nose and bends her knees (oh my). One lady falls to the ground, probably out of exaustion. She says for someone to stop her please. Max moves his shoulders and says he's never dancing again. Cole is moving his arms and tells everyone they have to stop the spell. Then, we hear the Princess sing "I hurry from my sleep", and Flute Org is instantly affected, and is disgusted with it. He stops playing his flute. The rangers are dancing along with grown ups, and then we hear the Princess sing the line "Greet you with my song", and the rangers and everyone else immediately collapse. Flute Org holds his ears and says he can't stand it. All the grown ups can get up and they flee. The Princess sings the words "You are nature full of grace and majesty". Cole takes a look up and he sees the Princess and Merrick atop on the bridge. Cole notes the Princess and Merrick made up (how would he know this, he wasn't there when Alyssa was gossiping). We see Kite sleeping on the bench, and he gets up. He slowly walks to somewhere, and then runs. Flute Org is still holding his head and yells "STOP IT" twice. The Princess goes for repeat, and continues the song (she must have a heck of a vocal to sing like 10 times a day). We now see Mandilok, and he fires a bolt at the Princess and Merrick that hits the bar. Mandilok says the rangers are next. Cole notes on who it is. Mandilok says to speed up the tempo, as Jindrax and Toxica now accompany him. Flute Org plays his little tune again, but a little faster. The rangers again dance. Danny looks off-balance, Taylor's arms look stiff, Cole just gives directions with the moves he's doing, Max is doing some like robot stuff, Alyssa looks like a ballerena. We see up close Max and Alyssa. Max has some pretty quick moves with his hips, and Alyssa is bringing it around her waist. We now see another shot, and Cole is giving the signal that a field goal is good, then he brings his arms down, and does some more stuf with his arms. Alyssa rolls her wrists together. Max claps his hands over his head, and struts. Taylor looks like she's climbing an invisible rope. Danny moves...I think. Mandilok's top voice tells the rangers thanks for saving their last dance for "it". Then, we hear something big step down and Mandilok notices and looks over. Jindrax and Toxica were dancing too btw. Jindrax was leaning on his sword and picked up his feet. Toxica kicked her feet to her hand and spun around. It's the Deer Zord! It jumps from building to building. Deer Zord sends a ring down and Mandilok notes the Deer Zord is breaking the spell. We see gold dust all over the place. Flute Org continues playing, and suddenly stops. Flute Org says that has just lost its tune. Max stops dancing, but Alyssa still moves her hips and rolls her wrists. Everyone is dancing except Max, and he tells everyone the spell is broken. The Deer calls out something. Flute Org asks what have they done to his flute. Mandilok says it will get them for this. Princess Shayla gets up and says the Deer came to hear their song. Merrick says he thought he came to hear him play his flute. The Princess jokes around and then gets serious by pushing Merrick on the shoulder and knocking him off the bridge. Merrick "dives". The Princess has a worried look. Merrick though yells out "Wild Access!" and he morphs. Princess Shayla is relieved. The Lunar Wolf Ranger joins the others. The rest morph now. They do the guardians thing. The Princess urges them to "come on". The rangers charge with their weapons and Cole says the recital is over. Flute Org says his flute isn't the only one in his musical arsenal. He does an attack called Recorder Blast by firing some weapons in his left hand. The rangers instantly stop charging. Then, Flute Org says it's recording time, and fires from the same hand, and they hit all the rangers. Flute Org jumps from the top to where the rangers are at for hand-to-hand combat. Cole is the first to charge and he misses a kick and goes somewhere. Taylor tries a punch but ends up getting hit in the back. Danny is hit away. Alyssa gets kicked in the back too. Merrick gets kicked away in the stomach. Max tries to swing his Shark Fighting Fins but he gets kicked in the stomach, three times. The third kick though sends him flying and he bounces off of the wall and then comes back with a kick. Flute Org is now on the ground, to be dragged by Alyssa and Danny, and then thrown on the ground. The Princess is pleased with what she sees. Cole charges with his Lion Fangs, and calls for Blazing Fire. A big charge of fire comes and hits Flute Org. He then punches, and Flute Org is sent flying down. We see Kite running, to see the action, and Mandilok notes it's that boy again, and asks what's he doing here. Toxica says he must know the rangers, and Jindrax says yeah (they're bandaged up by the way). Cole tells everyone to combine their weapons, and they form the Jungle Sword. Cole says the concert is cancelled. The rangers do Savage Slash and Flute Org is immediately gone. The Princess celebrates. Toxica stomps her feet and says "NO!". Mandilok tells Toxica to resurrect the Org. Toxica does the motion with her staff, and Flute Org instantly grows. Cole notes that he's back for an encore. The rangers call their Wild Zords, but Flute Org plays his song which affects how the tune that calls the Wild Zords down. The rangers are affected again, and Cole notes that the playing is worse than ever. Kite has to hold his ears as well. He runs off. Flute Org plays, and all the buildings around him sea-sauter. Mandilok says soon, the music will give them control over everything in the city. Then, something glows. We see Merrick now, who probably had to go the bathromm as he comes from an alley. Merrick tells the rangers that the flute is too loud and the zords can't hear their call. Zords come out though. Mandilok asks how did the zords hear their call, and senses something is wrong. Toxica notes that those aren't the rangers' Wild Zords. We see the zords, and, they're different...Merrick sees the Wild Zords, and asks if it could really be them. The rangers are still holding their helmets but later stop. Wesee the lion which roars (much darker), another bird, another shark (maroon), another bison, and another cat. Mandilok is instantly scared. Then, the zords form something. The shark and cat become the arms, the bison the torso, the lion the head. We have a new megazord. Mandilok says it's Animus, but notes he was destroyed 3000 years ago, it asks how could he here. The Princess runs to the rangers, and sees that it is Animus. The rangers are amazed, and Merrick asks if it is possible. Flute Org says no one said he was coming. Animus gets its big bow and arrow, and fires it. Flute Org says to be careful with that, and it gets fired right on his flute, breaking it. Cole now says it's time to get rid of the blowhard, and gets out his Falcon Summoner. He sets up his Falcon Summoner, and they summon the zords needed for the Isis Megazord. The Princess and Merrick look at each other, and Merrick says it's amazing. Cole calls for the clutcher (using the Deer arm). Flute Org can do nothing but just stand their, and Flute Org is caught in-between the Deer's antlers. He is picked up pretty high in the air. Flute Org asks to be put down. Cole calls for the Isis Megazord, Antler Crunch. Flute Org is spun around pretty fast and he heads into a direction and gets blown up. The Isis Megazord is shown, and the three Orgs get out of there (What happened to Animus?).
Merrick and the Princess celebrate (Merrick was no help in the battle). The other rangers join up. Princess Shayla tells Animus they saved them. Merrick calls Animus his friend, but says he thought he saw Master Org (first mention of the exact words "Master Org" in awhile) destroy him 3000 years ago, and asks how he, but the Princess interrupts and asks if he's back. Animus just disappears. They are looking to him in-front of a parking garage. Everyone tells Animus to wait. Taylor asks Merrick how is it possible Animus can be in the present. Merrick says he doesn't know, he walks away, and demorphs. Princess Shayla tells Merrick to wait, and reminds him they have to sing to the Deer tommorow. Merrick has a little grin, but nodds. He then walks away. The Princess is happy about it. Alyssa says they better go. Cole says yeah, but says he'll meet them back on the Animarium. He runs off, as all the other rangers are confused. Cole runs to where he left Kite, and he sees no sight of him. He yells out his name, but there's nothing. He then asks himself where did he go. The next time scenes have Angemon voicing them.
