Zordon I Shrunk The Rangers Part II
Short Recap of Part One
Prologue
Ext. Park - Combination Green Screen - Day
Goldar stands with foot raised, looking down into the grass.
Goldar
Prepare to be insect jelly beneath my feet you miserable Rangers!!
Insert - Close Angle - Green Screen
Billy, Aiesha and Rocky cower in the grass as Goldar's monstrous foot hovers above them.
Aiesha
We can't go out like this! Squashed like bugs!
Rocky
We've gotta do something!
Billy
We have to morph! Maybe that will at least give us some small amount of power.
The three tiny Rangers go into their morphing sequence. They stand in the grass in their tiny ranger uniforms.
Goldar
(o.c.)
Ready or not, here I come!
Goldar begins to lower his foot.
Red Ranger
All together now!
The three tiny rangers latch onto Goldar's huge toe and manage to trip him. They do a series of gymnastic maneuvers and flip out of frame.
Wide Angle - Same
Goldar falls with a thud. He roars as he crawls to his knees and begins to paw through the grass. Finster stands helpless beside him.
Goldar
Don't just stand there you mutant reject! Find those Rangers!!!
Finster
Oh dear oh dear...
Finster gets down beside Goldar and begins to look.
Angle - Green Screen
The three tiny Rangers stand breathing hard beneath the cover of a large rock.
Yellow Ranger
That was close.
Red Ranger
Too close if you ask me!
Blue Ranger
I'm going to try and contact Zordon! (into communicator) Zordon! Alpha! Come in...
The three crouch deeper beneath the rock as they see Goldar and Finster's feet go by.
End Prologue
Act One
Int. Command Center - Same
Alpha stands at the viewing Globe. Billy's voice comes in distorted and faint.
Billy
(o.c.)
Do you read me? Alpha, Zordon!
Alpha
Aye yai yai! Billy!!! What's happened to you?!!!
Zordon
Billy, are you and the others safe at the moment?
Billy
(o.c.)
I don't know for how long! Rita managed to get a hold of my device and shrunk us all!
Zordon
I want you to stay put in the general vicinity as long as you can. Alpha, contact the others!
Alpha
Right, Zordon!! Aye yai yai!
Int. Youth Center - Same
Kimberly, Tommy and Adam refill plates to the homeless who are gathered at the table eating. Tommy hears his communicator go off. He signals to the other two and points to his communicator. Adam and Kimberly move to join him.
Kimberly
I had a feeling something was wrong.
Tommy
(softly)
We read you, what's up?
Alpha
(o.c.)
Rangers, you must teleport to the Command Center at once. Something's happened to Billy and the others. Hurry!
Tommy
We're on our way.
Adam
I hope they're alright.
Kimberly
Come on!
The three hurriedly exit.
Int. Lord Zedd's Palace - Same
Rita stands looking through her repulsascope. She pulls back and laughs.
Rita
That Goldunce baboon better not let those Rangers get away!!!
Lord Zedd sits in his chair concentrating through his laser vision.
Lord Zedd
I see that Zordon has just called the other Rangers in to the Command Center!
Rita
Perfect! They'll come to the rescue of their tiny friends and we'll shrink them too!!!
Rita and Lord Zedd share a maniacal laugh.
Int. Command Center - Same
The three Rangers stand looking through the Viewing Globe. Alpha stands to the side working on some kind of mechanism. Tommy talks into his communicator.
Tommy
Hang in there buddy, we're gonna get you guys out of there.
INSERT: Shot of Billy, Aiesha and Rocky huddled by the rock. Billy talks into his communicator.
Billy
Could you hurry,...there's some bugs around here the size of a station wagon.
Kimberly turns to Zordon.
Kimberly
We've got to go get them!
Zordon
I'm afraid you must wait here until Alpha can devise a protective shield source.
(MORE)
Zordon (cont'd)
Goldar and Finster are still in possession of Billy's device. We must not take any chances of you three being shrunk also.
Adam
How long will that take?
Alpha
I've almost got it! It'll just be a jiffy.
The three turn back to the Viewing Globe.
Int. Youth Center - Same
Bulk and Skull come from the kitchen wearing soiled aprons.
Bulk
Have you ever seen so many dishes in your life?
Skull
I've got dish pan hands! I think I even have dish pan elbows!!
Ernie comes up to them with a bin of dirty dishes and plops them in their arms.
Ernie
Back to work guys, there's plenty more where that came from.
Bulk and Skull stare disgustedly at Ernie as he walks away.
Bulk
(mimicking Ernie)
There's plenty more where that came from...I'm sick of these dishes! We were so close to being rich!
Skull
Yeah, now the only thing we're close to is...more dishes.
Skull begins to carry the dishes back to the kitchen. Bulk stops him.
Bulk
Wait a minute! I bet the Power Rangers have taken care of those creeps in the park by now!
Skull
So?
Bulk
So...I bet the device is still where you dropped it!!
Skull
I dropped it?!!...You dropped it! You wouldn't even let me carry it! Remember?
Bulk grabs the bin of dishes and sets them down. He begins to untie his apron.
Bulk
Details! Minor details! Come on Skull! We're gonna go get that device and we're gonna be rich once and for all!
Bulk yanks Skull out of frame. A beat later Skull's apron flies into frame and lands on the discarded bin of dishes.
Int. Command Center - Same
Alpha stands before Kimberly, Tommy and Adam holding a large metal tubed mechanism. He runs it over their bodies creating a shower of sparks.
Alpha
This should protect you from the shrinking rays of Billy's device.
Zordon
Alpha and I will try to track a progress report of the others. I must warn you, it may be difficult to find them.
Kimberly
We'll just have to watch where we step.
Adam
Let's do it!
Tommy
It's morphin time!
The three go into the morphing sequence.
Ext. Park - Same
The three Rangers land in the park in front of Goldar and Finster who are both on their knees.
White Ranger
Looking for something?
Goldar and Finster scramble to their feet.
Goldar
Prepare to join your tiny friends! Get em Finster!
Finster
With pleasure!
Finster aims the device toward the three and switches the lever. A ray of light emits but bounces of the Rangers forms and hits a tree. The tree is now the size of a bonsai tree.
Goldar
Fool! What did you do to it?!
Finster
Nothing! I...It must have malfunctioned...
The three Rangers begin to advance on Finster.
Pink Ranger
You'd better hand that over now!
Finster
I think I left something boiling back at the palace!
Finster drops the device and vanishes.
Goldar
(to sky)
Coward! (To Rangers) Welcome to my little search party! Watch where you step, your friends could be anywhere!
Goldar begins to stomp around wildly!
Adam
Stop it!
Goldar
(to sky)
Putties!!!
A group of putties appear and also begin to jump around stomping wildly.
Pink Ranger
They're going to crush them! (to ground) Run! Where ever you guys are,...Run!
White Ranger
I've had just about enough of this!
Tommy looks down carefully and leaps at Goldar. Kimberly and Adam begin to battle the putties.
Angle - Green Screen
Billy, Aiesha and Rocky are running frantically as the whole ground vibrates and thunders below them.
Blue Ranger
Come on! We've gotta get outta here!
Aiesha trips and falls. Goldar's foot crashes down beside her nearly hitting her.
Yellow Ranger
Ahhhh!
Rocky helps her up and they both run together.
Red Ranger
Keep moving!!!
Wide Angle
Three big Rangers are fighting as carefully as they can so as not to step on their tiny counterparts.
Another Angle Near Fight Scene - Same
Bulk and Skull come gliding up near the fight scene on skate boards. (NOTE: One skate board to match Japanese White Ranger skate board footage.) They near the fight scene.
Skull
Bulk,...I don't think this is such a good idea. The Power Rangers are still fighting that Gold thing!
Suddenly two putties fly toward them knocking them off their skate boards. They scream and scramble up. Bulk takes off on his skate board as Skull runs behind him.
Skull
Wait for me!!!
Skull jumps on Bulk's skateboard too. The camera follows Skull's discarded skate board (Japanese match) as it rolls down the path toward the fight and comes to a stop.
Angle - Green Screen
Billy, Aiesha and Adam run toward the abandoned skate board.

We'll all do it together.

Bulk and Skull are careening on the skateboard. Out of control, the skate board skips and they both go flying into a bush. They see stars as they dizzily sit up. Skull looks dazed at the path before him.
SKULL'S P.O.V. - The three tiny Rangers riding by on the skate board.
Skull taps Bulk and smiles.
Skull
Look Bulky,...Baby Rangers...
Bulk observes the sight and smiles.
Bulk
Yeah,...baby Rangers...
The two knock heads and faint.
Another Angle - Same
The three big Rangers are battling Goldar and the putties. Goldar knocks Tommy to the side and he goes down. Tommy glances down the path in time to see the tiny Rangers headed away on the skateboard. He scrambles up and runs toward them.
Goldar
So! Finally the great white Ranger runs in fear!
Kimberly and Adam see Tommy running to the skate board just as Goldar does.
Goldar
Putties! Follow that skate board! Don't let him get near it!
A group of putties break away in pursuit. Two catch up to Tommy and begin to haul him down.
Pink Ranger
No!!
Adam and Kimberly launch into an attack against Goldar and the remaining putties.
Black Ranger
We've got to finish this!
Int. Lord Zedd's Palace - Same
Rita runs to Lord Zedd in great agitation.
Rita
Zedd!! That bumbling baboon is making a mess out of the whole thing! Make a monster to go down and do the job right!!
Lord Zedd
There isn't time my little boo blister. I'll have to use my monster regurgitator and bring back the Nimrod and clones, AC and DC!
Rita
Well do it already!!!
Ext. Park - Japanese - American - Same
Nimrod and AC and DC appear in the park. They see the tiny Rangers on the skateboard with Tommy and the putties in pursuit. In the distance, Kimberly, Adam, Goldar and the other putties are still fighting.

Oh yes, lets!

Nimrod
Where are you hiding my little snackletts!
Tommy dispenses of the two putties at his side and looks down at the skateboard and jumps on it. He goes down the road and flies over a moving truck.

Hang on guys! Help is on the way!!!
Tommy jumps off the skate board and battles the putties that are looking for the tiny Rangers.

End Act Two
Epilogue
Ext. Park - Day
Bulk and Skull wander through the park near the battle sight.
Skull
Bulk, how could we have both had the same dream? I know I saw baby Rangers and you saw them too!!!
Bulk
Trust me Skull, it was a dream....at least that's what I'm going to tell everyone if you tell them about this.
Bulk stops suddenly and points.
Bulk
Skull, is that what I think it is?
Skull looks over to see Billy's device once again abandoned on the ground.
Skull
(sarcastically)
No Bulk, it's just a dream.
Bulk bonks him on the head and picks the device up pointing toward the two of them.
Bulk
I don't believe it! We've been given another chance! We're gonna be rich!
Skull
And, what ever you do, do not push this button!
Skull pushes the button to emphasize his point. The device begins to shake and suddenly Bulk and Skull are immersed within a bright light. Slowly the two begin to shrink.
Bulk
Now look what you've done!
Skull
Mommy!!!
Int. Command Center - Same
The big Rangers stand next to Alpha looking across the room at the little Rangers which are on the floor.
White Ranger
You think this is going to work Alpha?
Alpha
I've managed to replicate the bio waves within the molecular structure of their chemistry make up.
Zordon
Alpha will activate their molecules encouraging growth.
Pink Ranger
The sooner the better.
Black Ranger
We need them. Nimrod and clone are still on the loose.
Alpha
Here goes!
Alpha pushes a melange of buttons and switches. Light enfolds the tiny Rangers and they grown back to normal size.
Red Ranger
Morphenominal!
Yellow Ranger
I will never complain about being short again!
Blue Ranger
Back to normal at last!
White Ranger
Are we glad to see you!
Alpha gazes into the Viewing Globe.
Alpha
Aye yai yai!
Pink Ranger
What is it Alpha?
Alpha
I'm afraid Bulk and Skull are in big trouble. They must of gotten a hold of your device Billy.
Blue Ranger
Oh no!
The Rangers crowd around to look.
INSERT: GREEN SCREEN: Bulk and Skull are shaking in terror in the grass. There is a deep rumbling growl. The camera pans to a close up of a German Sheppard peering down at them. Bulk and Skull grab onto each other and whimper in terror.
Bulk
N...n...nice doggie!
The dog barks loudly. The two look at each other and scream.
