I Love Lothor is the twentieth episode of Power Rangers Ninja Storm. It debuts the first appearance of the Samurai Thunder Megazord.

Synopsis[]

Marah & Kapri desire to assist their uncle Lothor in taking over the Earth by changing his image, and consult the television producer monster, Mister Ratwell! The idea is to broadcast a sappy sitcom starring Lothor, with a hypnotizing spell , to force all of humanity to adore the Evil Space Ninja. Ratwell's love spell is also inadvertently used on Cam & Blake, causing both of them to compete to the death for the affections of Tori!

Plot[]

Inspired by Marah and Kapri watching a TV show, Lothor hires Mr. Ratwell to help him create a television show that will brainwash the population into adoring him as their ruler as another attempt to conquer the world. During a cooking class at Storm Chargers, Cam and Blake drink a smoothie that is accidentally spiked with a love potion by Marah and Kapri (who intended to use it to make one of the male Rangers to fall in love with them and help them to conquer Earth), causing them to fight over Tori instead and ruin the cooking class.

When Tori stumbles onto the set of Lothor's new show, she is captured. Lothor begins airing his show, which brainwashes Kelly and all the other women watching into loving him despite being initially unsuccessful. Cam and Blake take their feud to the beach where they battle for Tori. Mr. Ratwell shows up and starts shooting at them. The two morph and continue fighting each other.

After escaping the studio, Tori appears and tries to stop them. When Mr. Ratwell fires at Tori, Blake goes all out and destroys Mr. Ratwell. This breaks the love spell over Cam and Blake, restoring them to normal. It also breaks the love spell over Kelly and the many girls that were brainwashed by Lothor, causing them to confusedly look around and at the homemade placards they're holding. Mr. Ratwell retaliates by turning into a giant-sized rat. Cam and the Thunder Rangers destroy Ratwell with the Samurai Thunder Megazord.

Back at Ninja Ops, Cam and Blake are still recovering from the effects of the love spell and they agree not to fall in love again for a while. However, after seeing Tori's hurt face from hearing his response, Blake corrects that he will not fall in love while he's under a love spell. Tori questions what Blake was going to say to her while he and Cam were fighting at the beach. But the nervous Navy Ranger could not answer before Shane and Hunter arrive with a tray of homemade fried chicken as a way to make it up for the botched cooking class. When Dustin arrives with empty takeout boxes while eating a piece of chicken, it turns out Shane and Hunter had ordered the chicken from a fast food joint. Nevertheless, the Rangers eat the chicken together.

Errors[]

  • Kanoi mispronounced Lothor's name as "Lotor".
  • Hunter's American accent slips into Adam Tuominen's Australian when he is talking to Sensei with Shane and Dustin.
  • Kapri claims there are only 5 Rangers when there are 6 by this point. However, as she was referring to making one her boyfriend, she may have been omitting Tori.
  • During the fight between Blake and Cam, their doubles can briefly be seen in some shots.
  • Despite Lothor saying he wants the whole world to fall in love with him, most of the people who fall in love with him are women.
  • Tori didn't say what Blake said correctly, Blake said to Tori "It's time you knew the truth, Tori." when he and Cam were fighting at the beach while under the love spell, but at Ninja Ops, Tori rephrases it as "It's time for her to know the truth." when she was questioning Blake when he and Cam were normal again.

Notes[]

  • This episode mostly acts on the love triangle between Tori, Blake, and Cam.
  • The episode's name may be a reference to the popular tv show I Love Lucy.
  • This episode reveals that Blake still has feelings for Tori.
  • A reference is made to pop music singers Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.
  • Adam Tuominen (Hunter) has said that he told the director Hunter would not sit through a cooking class so if the viewers pause the episode to when Tori was interrogating Shane and Dustin about what they said earlier and look closely to the side behind Shane, they can see Hunter taking a snooze in the back.
  • This is the second series and the third time a food fight is featured. The first two were "Food Fight" and "Return of an Old Friend" both from Mighty Morphin Season 1.
