History Recap / MightyMorphinPowerRangersS1EP14FoulPlayInTheSky

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Snizard ended up becoming a fairly popular monster and made a few more appearances throughout the series.

** FridgeBrilliance: At least for the first one, Kimberly could only pilot her Dinozard while in Ranger mode.
* GeniusBonus: Snizard is a ''snake'' with an ''apple'' on his head. [[GardenOfEden Now, why does that sound familiar...?]]

* DevelopmentGag: The flashback used some footage from the unaired pilot of the teens first morphing into the Power Rangers and a close-up of two confused Putties.

* ReptilesAreAbhorrent

** TamperingWithFoodAndDrink: Sure, it's only a sleeping potion, but when the person falling asleep is at the wheel of a plane hundreds of feet in the air...
* SnakesAreSinister
* SssssnakeTalk

She can't wake Steve so she's forced to pilot it herself and with fuel dropping quickly. She calls Alpha on her communicator, who starts guidance her through the landing process. Meanwhile, Rita deploys the Snizard monster against the other four Rangers. It shoots snakes at them to hold them stationary and sap their strength. Kim's bow is necessary to defeat the Snizard, so she teleports over to provide support after landing the plane safely. Wiping out a bunch of Putties, she cuts down the snake bonds and [[WilliamTelling snipes out Snizard's apple on his head, defeating him.]]

-->'''Kimberly:''' ''(noticing Steve's ill)'' "Uncle Steve, are you alright?"\\

''[A relieved Bulk nods in understanding, then they both scream]''

She can't wake Steve so she's forced to pilot it herself and with fuel dropping quickly. Being unmorphed and without her powers, she can't draw on her experience from flying the Pterodactyl Zord. Instead, Alpha gives vocal guidance. Meanwhile, Rita deploys the Snizard monster against the other four Rangers. It shoots snakes at them to hold them stationary and sap their strength.

* ArrowCam: Another example, as the Power Bow, is instrumental in destroying the Snizzard.

-->'''Kimberly:''' WILL YOU TWO BE QUIET, I'M TRYING TO THINK!
* CreatorCameo: Douglas Sloan, who'd go on to be a producer from Season 3 through the first half of ''Turbo'' plays Kim's uncle.
* DevelopmentGag: The flashback used some footage from the unaired pilot: the Teens first morphed into the Power Rangers and the close-up of two confused Putties.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: A guy at the end is flirting with Kimberly who seems to be returning his advances. This was a mere two episodes before Tommy Oliver's introduction to the series and who would start out in a proper relationship with the pink ranger.

-->'''Kimberly:''' ''(noticing Steve's ill)'' Uncle Steve, are you alright?\\
'''Steve:''' I'm feeling kinda dizzy.\\
'''Bulk:''' ''(worried)'' What'd he say?\\
'''Skull:''' ''(assuringly)'' Nothing, he's just feeling a little dizzy.\\
''[A relieved Bulk nods in agreement, then they both scream]''

* HonoraryUncle: For Bulk & Skull anyway.
-->'''Steve:''' You're friends are welcome to come.\\
'''Kimberly:''' But--!\\
'''Bulk:''' Thanks, uncle!\\
'''Skull:''' Yeah, uncle!\\
'''Steve:''' How about you guys just call me Steve.

* InsultBackfire: While watching the planes fly, Skull tells Bulk he has the "brain of a pilot" because Kaplan once called him an "airhead".

* WilliamTelling: A ShoutOut to the famous myth, with the Snizzard monster having an Apple on top of his head which serves as his weak point.

* {{Fainting}}: Bulk and Skull faint the first time when they see Steve has fallen asleep (though Skull sorta forced it). They do it again when they come to and realize ''Kimberly'' is flying the plane! It takes smelling salts to wake then up at the end of the episode.

* OneWomanArmy: On reaching the battlefield, Kimberly faces a platoon of Putties. Not even flinching, she calls on her archery skills and mows them down left right and centre. Then, just like two episodes prior, it's down to her to land the killshot on the MonsterOfTheWeek.

* BigShutUp: A nervous Kimberly had enough of Bulk & Skull's screaming.
-->"WILL YOU TWO BE QUIET?? I'M TRYING TO THINK!"
* CheesyHunk: Randomly, and several episodes before the introduction of Tommy, Kimberly is hit on by a handsome but silly teen who praises her for landing the plane. Amusingly, Jason and Zack mock him... only to set up another pratfall gag covering Bulk and Skull in Juice bar beverages.
* CreatorCameo: Douglas Sloan, one of the producers, portrays Kimberly's uncle.

* BryanCranston: He provided Snizzard's voice long before his days on ''Series/BreakingBad''.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Originally, this episode was supposed to follow its ''Zyuranger'' equivalent more faithfully. Kimberly was supposed to have been put into a deep sleep like Mei was. In fact a bit of this was filmed and can be seen in the final episode where Zack is squatting down in front of some kind of bed, which would later be used for "Return of an Old Friend".
