Icon-abarangerThis article is about a three-part episode in Power Rangers Dino Thunder.

White Thunder is the three-parter episode and the eleventh to thirteenth episodes of Power Rangers Dino Thunder which introduces Trent as the White Dino Ranger, Red Ranger's Super Dino Mode, the Dragozord, the Parasaurzord, the DinoStegazord, & the Thundersaurus Megazord Parasaur Final Cut.

Synopsis[]

Part 1[]

Having allowed it to gestate for a year, Elsa retrieves the White Dino Gem, with the intent of having it bond with Mesogog. But Trent, following the Invisiportal from his father's office, winds up accidentally, and painfully, bonded with the Gem instead! Thanks to the genetic tampering done to the gem, whose side will this ultra tough White Dino Thunder Ranger be on? Meanwhile, Cassidy & Devin have their work cut out for them if they want to join the local TV news team.

Part 2[]

The evil White Dino Ranger finds his own Dragozord Dino Egg, and begins to bond it to him by feeding it energy from his Morpher. The Dino Thunder Rangers attempt to stop him, but Mesogog's monster Angor keeps the main three busy in a fight with the Thundersaurus Megazord, and Zeltrax once again scuffles with Tommy. Can they stop the evil gem-controlled Trent from gaining the power of a Zord? Will the new Parasaur Zord be of any help? Meanwhile, Cassidy & Devin run afoul of a gang of mischievous young kids in their search for the new White Ranger's secret ID.

Part 3[]

Now with his White Dragozord on the loose, the evil White Ranger makes himself an even bigger threat by stealing the Dino Ranger's Stegazord, and combines it with his own into his personal Megazord, the Dino Stegazord! Are our heroes's Zords any match for this combination? While Mesogog sends out a souped-up version of Angor to complicate matters, Conner faces White Ranger one-on-one. Can Conner unlock more of his Dino Gem's potential to give him the power to defeat Trent? Plus, Tommy discovers the White Ranger's identity, but at a huge cost. Meanwhile, Cassidy & Devin literally stumble onto getting Trent demorphing on videotape! Will this be their big break?

Plot[]

Part 1[]

While getting Cyberspace ready to open, Hayley hears a noise. Arming herself, Hayley walks quietly along the counter. Hayley scares Trent who had been drawing. Hayley thinks Trent's drawings have real talent. Trent helped Hayley set things up for the day. Hayley wanted to know why Trent was at her place at 7:00 in the morning drawing, instead of home. Trent explained that he does not have his father's support as he's in no way supportive of his artistic endeavors', thinking it'll get Trent no where, but Hayley thinks he'll come around, but Trent doubted that. His dad was a great guy, but there were some things his dad wouldn't budge on, which included Trent working at the Cyberspace.

At a hiding place in the woods, Elsa unleashes a mysterious energy source. Tommy is working at his house, when the computer screen shows an explosion. Tommy cannot make out the person there, but decides to check out what happen.

Cassidy has decide she is tired of her school show and wants to work in prime time. Cassidy drags Devin along for an interview as a major anchor person for television. At first Mr. Cormier dismisses Cassidy, telling her she needs more experience. Cassidy notices the Power Ranger clipping and tell Mr. Cormier she will find out one of the Power Ranger's identities. Mr. Cormier gives her chance and promises her the 6:00 spot if Cassidy can find out a Ranger identity.

Tommy, Ethan, Conner, and Kira arrive in the forest, but can't find anything. Tommy believes another Dino Gem has been found – and depending on who found it – it could be good or bad news.

Trent decides to talk with his dad about their last conversation and sharply told his dad he didn't appreciate him telling him not to draw. His father told him that when his parents disappeared, they agreed that he would act as Trent's father. Trent notices, during their conversation, that his dad doesn't look so good. Anton Mercer claims he is alright and still excepts total obedience from Trent. His dad told him that he had work to do and to go. Not happy, Trent replied that he had work to and left.

Anton Mercer suspiciously enters an invisiportal at his home office. Trent follows his dad, and ends up in Mesogog's fortress, where the White Dino Gem attaches itself to his arm. To lure out whoever stole the gem, Elsa and Zeltrax sends down a monster. It works, as the White Ranger appears and destroys the monster. He also takes down the Rangers, and leaves them with just a warning.

Mesogog punishes Zeltrax and Elsa for their failure with a psionic brain-blast and warns them as their future wasn't looking too bright. The Rangers battle the White Ranger again later on, getting defeated again. Tommy arrives as back up, but even he is defeated by the awesome power of this new Ranger, warning them to stay out of his way or be destroyed. The defeated Rangers regroup and return to Tommy's house.

Tommy tells them that they have to find out who the White Ranger is and what he wants...before it was too late. Cassidy and Devin see the White Ranger and go after him. The White Ranger demorphs. Trent picks himself off the ground and brushes himself off and is stopped by Cassidy and Devin, who want to know if he has seen the White Ranger. Trent says no and they take off. Trent leans against the wall in exhaustion [1].

Part 2[]

The White Ranger is busy trying to hatch a Dinozord egg. Elsewhere Cassidy walks into Hayley's Cyberspace and finds Devin. Cassidy is excited over footage she has of the White Ranger. Cassidy tells Devin that she got the footage from a kid in grammar school. Devin is more cautious - trying to tell Cassidy that he doesn't think grammar schools have film departments. The footage is nothing more than the kid in a white suit. Cassidy is angry when she finds out that she had been trick. Cassidy and Devin leave to track down the kid, bumping Trent with the door as they leave.

Hayley sees Ethan and Kira and asks them if they have seen Trent - she is worried because Trent is never late. Just as Hayley is saying this, Trent walks up behind her. Trent does not look good and Kira and Ethan are concern for him. Trent assures them that he is okay and leaves to start working. Kira and Ethan are contacted by Tommy. Worried, Hayley watches as Trent stumbles and then falls to the floor. Hayley helps him up and Trent tells her that he just lost it for a moment. Trent wants to keep working, but Hayley insists that he go home and rest. Trent finally agreed and leaves.

Ethan and Dr. Oliver left for the docks for the other egg and so they could discuss Ethan's Easter theory.

During the battle, strong winds hit the city and Cassidy and Devin have more debris stuck on them. Cassidy and Devin get separated by the fleeing crowds.

The White Ranger is in an alleyway and is losing his morph. Devin stumbles upon the White Ranger and gets his camera ready. Devin accidentally hits his head on a pipe and loses consciousness, although his camera is still rolling.

Conner decides to leave the soccer game and follow Trent.

Hayley returned to her place. She was surprised at the sight of Cassidy when she walked in. Cassidy looked a mess and Hayley quickly walked over. She asked if Cassidy was okay and told her that she was lucky to be alive. The whole city was under attack. Hayley was a bit taken aback when Cassidy suggested and gets her her usual drink. Devin was surprised to see that Cassidy was okay. But as far as Cassidy was concern, she was not okay. She didn't look or smell okay. Cassidy asked Devin where he had been, Devin kept repeating the same thing, until Cassidy got tired of hearing it. She was upset over her continual failure to get the White Ranger on tape.

Refusing to let anything get in his way, Mesogog sends some Tyrannodrones after the other Rangers. Tommy, Kira and Ethan morph into action. Conner still battles the White Ranger. During the battle, the White Ranger tricks the Red Ranger several times. Conner is furious and goes to a much stronger power-up and spikes emerge on his suit.

Mesogog warns Conner not to speak unless he was spoken to. He wants the White Ranger to be on his team, but White Ranger refuses. Mesogog decided not to take out Conner – wanting the use of Conner as bait for the White Ranger, calling him their 'new friend'. Mesogog and Zeltrax vanished and Ethan appeared to help Conner. Conner and Ethan watched as the White Ranger form his DinoStegazord again. Angor suddenly appeared and tried to captured the DinoStegazord. Instead Angor was destroyed by the White Ranger.

Errors[]

  • In some parts with Tommy's morph, Tommy's key doesn't go into the Morpher.
  • Ethan asks in Part 3, "Since when do they have bad Power Rangers?" However, he should know the answer to this since he had seen Tommy's emergency video diary which depicted both the Thunder Rangers and Tommy himself as evil Rangers from both Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Season 1 and Power Rangers Ninja Storm respectively back in "Legacy of Power".
  • The boy who pranked Cassidy tells her that he understands her reluctance not to believe him. He should have said that he understood her reluctance to believe him.
  • When Tommy's Morpher changes in Part 2, Ethan asks "How come mine doesn't do that?" even though his Morpher changed in the previous episode.

Notes[]

  • Jason David Frank makes his final physical appearance in Part 3 of this episode until "Fighting Spirit", his reduced involvement in the series being one of the conditions of his returning to the show.
  • This is the first episode to feature a White Ranger as a Sixth Ranger since "Rangers in Reverse".
  • The boy who swindled Cassidy is dubbed over by a woman with a rather obvious Kiwi accent, even though the actor who played the boy specializes in imitating American accents, according to his resume.
  • This episode is the only 3-parter episode in the series.
  • This episode is very similar to "Green with Evil".
  • This marks the first appearance of the Parasaurzord, Dragozord, DinoStegazord, Super Dino Mode.
  • Throughout the Power Rangers franchise, Parasaurolophus (a hadrosaur) is the only ornithopod dinosaur to be used as a Zord. Furthermore, its crest never becomes as a weapon--for instance, a laser. It thus seems redundant to use a crested hadrosaur, as opposed to a crestless one, such as the namesake Hadrosaurus (it could be called the Hadrozord). Pachycephalosaurus was once considered an ornithopod, but now it is classed as a marginocephalian like Triceratops (Brett-Surman, M. K., "Ornithopods", The Complete Dinosaur, James O. Farlow and M. K. Brett-Surman [editors], Indiana University Press, 1997, page 331).
  • In Part 3 after his Megazord fight with the other Rangers, Trent's voice is briefly normal before he de-morphs and weakly collapses.
