A Brief Mystery of Time is the forty-fourth episode of Power Rangers Zeo.
Synopsis[]
Tommy can't shake the feeling that he's re-living the same events over and over, but the other Rangers don't seem to notice anything wrong.
Plot[]
Gasket wants to use a device to briefly stop time. His theory is that the Rangers then won't have the time to notice his battlefleet getting ready to invade Earth.
Sprocket has a plan of his own, trying to ambush the Rangers with the Cogs. His plan fails.
Tommy starts to notice that the day is repeating itself, as he already knows what might happen next. Zordon suspects that Tommy has this ability as a side-effect of Gasket's spell.
The Rangers find the device but then have to take on Protectron. Gasket and Archerina are active in the fight as well. The Red Ranger uses his Blaster on Protectron. Gasket and Archerina retreat. A grown Protectron continues the fight but is defeated by Megazord. Gasket and Sprocket blame each other for their failures.
