 This article is about an episode in Power Rangers Samurai.
|
Sticks and Stones is the sixth episode of Power Rangers Samurai. The episode establishes Emily's troubled childhood and why she doesn’t care what other people except Mike think about her and that her sister, Serena was originally intended to become the next Yellow Samurai Ranger before falling ill, resulting in Emily taking her place alongside Jayden and the others.
Synopsis
When a Nighlok who uses insults as a weapon to inflect physical harm upon his victims and attacks the Samurai Rangers. Only Emily is unaffected. To help her teammates, she explains how difficult events in life become an opportunity to grow stronger.
Plot
During battle training, Emily accidentally injures Mike in the arm, Emily's attempts to care for his arm making a mess of everything. The Nighlok Negatron appears and subjects his victims to insults that hurt their feelings so deeply that the verbal abuse actually becomes a physical assault. Confronting him all the Rangers are struck down by Negatron's attacks save for Emily who is unaffected as the Nighlok is forced to retreat. When her teammates wonder about her immunity to Negatron's attacks, Emily tells them how her sister Serena taught her to ignore insults and how you need to keep thinking that the person never even said it. When Negatron resumes his attack, Emily succeeds in weakening him with Mike's help as Jayden destroys him with the five disc Beetle Cannon. Negatron revives as a Mega Monster and the Rangers destroy him with the Beetle Blaster Megazord. Later, the Rangers are then seen walking along the sidewalk while Mike carries Emily who fainted at the end of the fight. Mia hears an ice cream truck and Emily, who has been faking unconsciousness for a few minutes at least, pretends to wake up so they can all get ice cream.

Errors
- Mike got a call from his Samuraizer. He was in the Shiba house with Emily, so instead of Mike getting a call of a Nighlok alert from his Samuraizer, the Gap Sensor should've gone off. However it’s possible Negatron didn’t set it off and the rangers found him and informed him or somebody working for them reported the attack to Mike.
- When Emily trips over the peas for the second time, for a split second, Mike can be seen laughing and putting his hands to his face (whether or not this was intentional or a blooper is unknown), but in the very next shot with a close-up of Emily, Mike has his hands down with a disappointed look on his face.
