This article is about an episode in Power Rangers Time Force. |
Circuit Unsure is the thirty-sixth episode of Power Rangers Time Force and is part one of the five-episode endgame arc.
Synopsis[]
The Time Force Rangers ask Circuit about historical events. Realizing Circuit has access to events up to their own time, they ask Circuit about up coming events. But someone in the future does not want them to find out, and subsequently prevents Circuit from revealing the information. Thinking he malfunctioned, Circuit loses confidence, just as Serpicon attacks the city.
Plot[]
Circuit is just about to reveal crucial information about a future battle but Alex deletes it before the little robot can explain. As a result, the Rangers get concerned thinking that Circuit malfunctioned.
Circuit, desperate to prove himself, attempts to help the Rangers in various tasks, but wary of another malfunction they refuse his help, unknowingly hurting his feelings. Circuit is very upset, both that he malfunctioned and the Rangers no longer trust him so he runs away from the Clock Tower. The Rangers realize they have mistreated Circuit and hurt his feelings, and they decide to go search for him.
Meanwhile, Ransik notes to Nadira that they are almost out of Mutants as he releases Serpicon to go to the Space Center and set it to self-destruct. Serpicon and the Cyclobots raid the Space Center where they tie up its workers as Serpicon sets the Space Center to self-destruct.
While Eric battles Serpicon, Trip tries to disarm the Space Center's self-destruct as the other Rangers try to get the people out. Circuit is left too unsure of himself to help Trip though he could disarm the self-destruct. However, Alex contacts him and explains that he deleted the information because the Rangers must not know as it could affect their mission. Now knowing that he didn't malfunction, Circuit's confidence is restored and he helps disarm the self-destruct at the last second.
Serpicon grows and Eric summons the Q-Rex to fight him, but Circuit takes a blast protecting the Rangers and can't summon the Megazord. Instead, the Rangers use the Time Jet to attack Serpicon, disarming him and allowing the Q-Rex to finish the job.
Circuit shuts down from the damage, but Trip is able to repair him and he lies when asked that the future is fine. Katie warns Circuit that they are coming with him the next time he considers running away.
Meanwhile, in the future, Alex worriedly watches what Circuit nearly told the Rangers about... buildings being sucked up into time vortexes that appear all over the city.

Notes[]
- This episode was dedicated in memory of Thuy Trang, a member of the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers cast, who played Trini Kwan, the first Yellow Ranger. Thuy was killed in a car accident on September 3, 2001, just eight days before the September 11th terrorist attack against the World Trade Center towers in New York.
- The information Circuit had deleted and that Alex watches at the end of the episode is the events of the 3-part finale. According to Alex, the Rangers were originally meant to die in that battle saving the city which is why he did not want them to know about it.
