Go To

Jack and Syd are assigned to watch over a scientist whose criminal former partner is targeting her.


Tropes

  • A Birthday, Not a Break: Syd has this in this episode when Jack selects her to be his undercover partner, much to her dismay.
  • The Cameo: The Rangers are playing a video game, and the fighters they chose are the Blue Centurion and Cyclopter.
  • Forgotten Birthday: Syd's to be precise. More seriously, Jack doesn't know the day he was born on.
  • "Inescapable" Prison Easily Escaped: Sinuku is freed with a simple bomb.
  • Jerkass Realization: A Spoiled Brat variant. Syd learns that some people, namely Jack, who doesn't even know when he was born, don't have it all like she does. She even lampshades it.
  • Mythology Gag: The opening scene is set on KO-35, home planet of Andros, Karone, and Zhane.
  • Paper-Thin Disguise: A Krybot wearing a hoodie.
  • Pet the Dog: Piggy, when he learns Jack made Syd work undercover in her birthday, actually thinks that was wrong on Jack's part and feels bad for Syd.
  • Shipper on Deck: Piggy when watching Jack and Dr. Rheas hugging on binoculars, commented it was better than a reality show. However, Syd doesn't think the same way.
  • Skewed Priorities:
    • Sinuku's biggest complaint about prison? "The food there is terrible."
    • Syd thinks her birthday is more important than the safety of the universe.
    Syd: Well, tomorrow's officially my birthday. It's no big deal to me, but my parents insist on throwing me this enormous party every year. You know, they rent the best restaurant in town, and there's limos, and a live band, and...blah, blah blah.
