Airdate: 5/10/1996
Natsumi is out at the mall with Youko, who has a ice cream cones and crepe cone. They then spot cool bikinis.
Youko daydreams of running on the beach while men oggle at her. A cute man stops her to offer her his
card to be a model. She says maybe she
can't do it because she is a Carranger, but then thinks about how great it
would be as a model. She imagiens singing and winning a contest. Then marrying a Caucasian man
with a huge diamond ring. She snaps back to reality, thanks to Natsumi and pops out of
a dressing room in a bikini.
Natsumi shows off her bikini as well, Youko is shocked. She then looks at herself in the mirror and doesn't feel so
well about her own image. She
closes the curtain on the dressing room. Natsumi tries to consuel her, to no avail.
Just then, she gets a call in
her Accel Changer. Meanwhile, their boss Souichirou leaves a bank building. Numbers flash
everywhere and change the numbers
on his bank statement. The numbers start leaving.
Tthen enter random woman's bank account
and add up to hers.
He tells her that is his money. She doesn't understand, she thinks it is hers. The Bank Manager comes around and puts his
hands on their shoulders. Their problem seem to be more than he can deal with. Prices then lower at a bakery,
prompting children to demand the bakery attendant. Same thing at a grocery, the Carranger notice. Youko notices a
Gorotsuki and they run/transform behind a tree. They face him and introduce
themselves. His name is PP Rappa. He sees
a truck and tries takes the numbers from it, but it doesn't work. Pink then jumps and tries kicking
him, but he trips over a rock and she sits on him. He comments on how heavy she is. She freaks out.
She grabs him by the neck and her punch knocks him
down on the ground. He then retreats. Yellow comments on how strong she was. She is sheepish. Back at the base,
the gang watch the news, a guy says how fat Pink Racer is. Youko's dreams shatter. Everyone else freaks out, in
fear of her reaction.
At the BB Saloon, Zonnette puts a bandaid on PP Rappa's nose. Gynamo is pretty sure of him, they all laugh.
PP Rappa puts too pieces of paper in his nose. Grotch hooks him up with a jet-pack like device with a huge battery. Meanwhile, Youko is in a
sauna trying to loose weight. She weighs herself, finds out she is 47.6 kg,
which is about 105 pounds. Needless to say, she is not too thrilled with this news. She runs off.
She is later seen jogging, stops to look at cakes in a display window but continues
on jogging. She then does aeorbics, lifts weights, and swims in the pool.
Feeling condifent, she finds out she is the same
weights. At Pegasus, she does caculations while doing sit ups in a heavy jacket. Their
boss comes in with a box of cake,
but they
are too busy staring at Youko. Their boss approaches her, she greets him. The gang knows what he is going
to say but, it is too late... about shaping up. He laughs, but she
is shocked, drops her calculator. Everyone else winces. Their Accel Changers ring, the
boss hears this and wonders
what it is. Dappu appears behind him with a huge sign telling them to hurry up. They run off. He asks them what about the cake. Youko
keeps doing sit ups. PP Rappa makes a school bus go real fast. The Carranger
meanwhile are in a car, next to Youko in her jacket on her bike. They ntoice the bus rush past them. They get out of
the car and transform. PP Rappa approaches Youko. He throws a paper number 1 at her and it explodes. The Carranger catch up to the
bus. They try stopping it, PP Rappa throws exploding numbers at them. The glass breaks and the driver is injured.
Yellow Racer takes control of the wheel. Red and Blue manage to stop the bus. PP Rappa
runs off and the four chases after him. They
run ahead of him and they end up by the shore. In the base, Youko
complains to Dappu. PP Rappa throws another number at the four, Dappu and Youko see it. They are
in pain. Youko notices his scepter and is more determined than ever. She believes
Rappa screwed up her scale with his magic and
made her believe she was fat. PP Rappa now has a huge number 9 to throw and
destroy them. Youko arrives in her 'hero'
outfit and accuses him. He has no idea what
she is talking about. She runs and
transforms.
She leaps and kicks the number out of his hands. The number makes a huge
explosion. She introduces herself as Pink Racer and fights him. He throws a
bomb at
her and it doesn't damage her.
She kicks and
then punches him. She grabs him by his legs and swings him around. He falls down. She knocks him in the chin into water.
The Carranger reunite and congrulate her. He eats a imo-youkan and grows huge. RV
Robo is formed. PP Rappa takes out a #1,
looks at a
tower and makes it a cannon and shoots them. He looks at ducks in a pond and turns his #2 into a huge plastic duck
to use a sound attack on them. Blue uses Plagnade Spark to knock the duck
out of
his hands. He then pulls out a #3 to make
a baby ear, but realizes
that doesn't work. Pink is tired of his tricks and does Pink
Vehicle Punch. They then
finishes him off with their finisher.
Back at the suana, Youko and Natsumi check out Youko's weight, but
it
turns out to be the same. The others try
cheering her up at the fountain
outside. She is touched by them all. She then figures what she should eat next: a sundae or chocalate. They freak. She then
pushes them, saying it is their treat.
Comments:
In this episode, Pink believes it is the monster's fault that her weight
has changed. In "Power Rangers Turbo," there are slight changes to the plot. The monster is to one who changes Pink's
weight. He makes Pink super light. Both in the end of both stories, our Pink heronies learned it her weight didn't
matter.
