Penny
-
- blind friend of Rocky
422-TrMe
Penny performed at the Angel Grove Martial Arts Expo at the Youth Center; although she was blind, she was
able to defend herself against three attackers at once.
Rocky introduced himself,
Tanya, and Billy to
Penny, and they each spoke to her.
Penny was defensive and eager to prove that she
didn't need anyone's help with anything.
Penny read a braille storybook to a group of
young children in the resource center
at Angel Grove High.
Penny, later in the park, consoled a little girl who had lost
her dog.
Rocky apologized for the
previous day, saying he knew how hard it must be sometimes, and Penny
thanked him and put her hand on his.
Penny planned to teach braille when she got out
of school.
Penny asked Rocky if he'd
like to walk her to the bus stop, and he gladly accepted.
There was a very brief and mild chirp just before
Penny stopped in her tracks, describing a high-pitched whine.
When Rocky's communicator went off, Rocky left Penny sitting on a bench while he left
to answer his communicator, telling her
he'd go check on both noises.
Rocky took a few steps
away from Penny and then noisily scurried the rest of the way to hide
behind a waist-high brick wall about fifteen to twenty feet away.
Perhaps within earshot of Penny, Rocky spoke, rather than whispered, with Zordon on his communicator.
Still crouching behind the wall, Rocky quietly called and summoned his Zeonizers, then he quietly and gently brought
his Zeonizers together; his generic morph
scene contained his normal loud yell of, "Zeo Ranger Three, Blue."
Before Penny, soon walking by the Rangers, recognized Zeo Ranger Three's voice as belonging to
Rocky, the Rangers
were having the following conversation about Defector:
Kat: "Do you think that robot could be telling the
truth?"
Adam: "One of King Mondo's robots, good? I don't
think so."
Rocky: "I dunno. The creature really didn't
seem to want to fight us."
After Penny had recognized Rocky's voice, the following scene
ensued:
Penny: "Rocky, is that you?"
Rocky: "Oh no, Penny..."
Penny: "What's going on? Who are you with?"
Kat: "You'd better go talk to her, Rocky. We'll
cover for you."
Rocky: "Thanks. (trots over to Penny, demorphing
in a public area as he does so) Yeah, it's me, I'm here. Right
here."
- the other Rangers jog over
Rocky: "I'm, uh, I'm with, uh, the Power
Rangers!"
Tanya: "Did either of you notice anything
strange around here?"
Penny: "If you mean something really big jumping off the roof and
running away, it went that way."
Tanya: "Great, thanks."
If Penny recognized morphed Rocky's voice, she probably also recognized Zeo Ranger Two's voice as belonging to Tanya, whom she had met the previous day.
A different day, Rocky
had Penny get a dish at the Juice Bar she
wasn't sure about, then escorted her to a table.
When Billy asked Rocky and Penny about their meeting the Power Rangers, Tanya
remarked that she'd heard Yellow (Zeo
Ranger Two) was coolest; Kat said pink was
such a great color, and Adam asked, "Pink? What
about green?"; Tommy chuckled from nearby.
Penny eventually heard the voices of all five Rangers and all five teens (though only a chuckle from Tommy).
"Penny."
