The Legend of the Clock Tower
Airdate: 5/19/01
|
|
|
| Katie and Trip are working on the old
clock in the tower, trying to get it back up and running.
|
|
When Katie heads upstairs to check out a
part, she is warned by Wes not to go, since that area is
haunted by Walter, the lonely ghost. |
|
|
|
| Later thatnight, Katie's curiosity takes
her upstairs, where she does indeed encounter the ghost. |
|
She stumbles back, falls off the
steps, and into a time hole. |
|
|
|
| She lands on the street, in the path of
two horses. |
|
A young man grabs her and saves her from
the oncoming traffic. |
|
|
|
| Katie watches in disbelief as she
realizes that the young man is Walter, and thatshe is in
the past. She watches the story unfold .. |
|
Drake, an arrogant overbearing fool.
Gwen's boyfriend and Walter's boss. |
|
|
|
| Gwen, a young girl trapped in an abusive
relationship. |
|
Walter, a lovestruck poet afraid to stand
up for the girl he loves. |
|
|
|
| When Drake catches Walter talking to
Gwen, he has him unload a huge wagon. Katie helps him
out. |
|
Katie and Walter go for a drink, but
they're interrupted by Drake, who can't beleive Walter
finished his work. |
|
|
|
| Katie stands up to Drake, and challenges
him to arm wrestling. She totally humiliates him. |
|
Drake retaliates by firing Walter, and
storms off in a huff. |
|
|
|
| Gwen sees Walterat the clock tower, and
warns him that Drake and his goons are coming to beat him
up. |
|
Walter packs up to leave town, and Katie
chews him out for not standing up to Drake and defending
Gwen. |
|
|
|
| Katie waits for Drake in front of the
tower. He attacks, but Katie has him under control. |
|
Walter returns. He has decidedto stand up
for himself after all. |
|
|
|
| After a brief fight, Walter takes Drake
out with a good punch to the gut. |
|
The crowd applauds as Walter and Gwen
walk off together. |
|
|
|
| Katie wakes up in her bed. Was it all a
dream? No time to think, a mutant attack calls the team
into action. |
|
The Rangersbattle Cyclobots in a very
familiar battle. |
|
|
|
| Then they take out a mutant with only the
Time Force Megazord. |
|
When Katie recounts her dream, she finds
out there is no lonely ghost, and Walter married Gwen, so
she must have really gone back in time. |
Comments:
- That fight scene at the end totally ruined
everything. This was a great ep, and didn't need
that. On top of that, they used recycled footage.
- Very Back to the Future-ish. I almost
expected to hear Walter use George McFly's line:
"hey you, get your damn hands off of
her!"
