"You can't do this to us! We're the A-Squad!"
―Charlie's final words before getting arrested[src]

Charlie is the A-Squad Red Ranger and former leader of the A-Squad Rangers. After her team was sent out on a mission they secretly joined forces with Emperor Gruumm and became traitors.

History

S.P.D.

Disappearance

ASquadFakeMessage

Charlie sends a fake distress signal to Cruger.

As A-Squad's leader, she dealt with more serious attacks on Newtech City and Earth. She destroyed the first of Broodwing's robots. Tvicon TV STORY-Beginnings

Before Emperor Gruumm attacked Earth, he sent his forces to the Helix Nebula in order to draw out the A-Squad. Tvicon TV STORY-Confronted Charlie's team was dispatched, but shortly after, she sent a garbled distress signal as the team was overrun. SPD continued to search for the A-Squad but Anubis Cruger feared they'd been killed in action. Tvicon TV STORY-Walls

In reality, Charlie and her team had betrayed S.P.D. and joined Gruumm - as Charlie would later say that "everyone wants to be on a winning team". On his behalf, they attacked and slaughtered the S.P.D. outpost on Gamma 4. Tvicon TV STORY-S.W.A.T.

Betrayal

"You've never really thought you sit a chance against us did you? After all, you're only the B-Squad."
―Charlie to the S.P.D. Rangers.[src]
ASquad-Resurrection

Charlie and the A-Squad kidnap Cruger.

Later, the squad faked having crashed on Gamma Orion and were "rescued" by the B-Squad (Charlie was annoyed at Jack for being surprised that she was "a girl"). Once they were back on Earth, Charlie kidnapped Cruger and took him to Gruumm's warship; she didn't care when Cruger denounced them as Rangers and asked Gruumm to give her team a chance to destroy B-Squad, confidently stating they couldn't beat the best of the academy, to which Gruumm agrees. Tvicon TV STORY-Resurrection

Her next act was to call out the B-Squad to meet them in battle, where Charlie and her Rangers pounded them into the dirt and mocked them due to her squad's superior training and experience. Unfortunately for Charlie, the B-Squad activated S.W.A.T. Mode and resorted to improvised battle tactics, and Charlie was taken down by Jack Landors. Charlie summoned a spare Zord to continue the fight and helped destroy the Delta Squad Megazord, but a rematch with the S.W.A.T. Megazord blew it to pieces.

ASquadRedDefeat

Charlie is defeated by Jack.

Laying defeated and about to be arrested, a helmetless Charlie was outraged by the idea that the A-Squad could possibly be beaten by their "inferiors" and said the B-Squad couldn't do this since they were A-Squad, but Jack didn't care saying that she and the rest of her team are being demoted before placing them in confinement cards and the A-Squad position was disbanded after B-Squad refused to accept the position of A-Squad. Tvicon TV STORY-Endings

HyperForce

Charlie and the other A-Squad Rangers were briefly freed from their prison on planet Y37 by the Alliance in an attempt to recruit them in 2027, but later she and the other A-Squad Rangers are free from their imprisonment by "The Leader".

Later, the A-Squad infiltrates the watchtower and harasses the guard, the HyperForce Rangers discuss the best way to infiltrate the facility. Ignoring the conversation, Vesper throws caution to the wind and lets out the battle cry of "Leeroy Jenkins", Vesper uses one of her bombs to injure the A-Squad. The A-Squad Rangers attempt to retaliate, but are blinded by the smoke. Using the smoke cloud from the exploded bomb to their advantage, Charlie and the A-Squad Blue Ranger are knocked unconscious by Eddie Banks, the HyperForce Blue Ranger.

The A-Squad Rangers are recaptured by Lina Song the then current S.P.D. Green and the HyperForce Rangers, a dog appears pile on top of Marv and A-Squad Red as the unnamed S.P.D. Green Ranger contains the five A-Squad Rangers in cards. Tvicon TV STORY-Homecoming

Personality

Charlie was the greedy, arrogant, treacherous, sadistic, and self-serving leader of the A-Squad. She never interacted with the B-Squad Rangers (they didn't even know that she was a woman) and she showed arrogant contempt for them, saying that they're "not fit to shine their boots". Even Space Patrol Delta was unaware of her true personality, though Bridge Carson once noticed that something was "off" about her and her team's aura. However, despite her arrogance and confidence, she was also cowardly, as she actually feared to lose to the B-Squad and be captured.

Notes

  • Charlie is noted as being the first female Red Ranger in the franchise's history. Bruce Kalish and Greg Aronowitz had asked if they could make the B-Squad Red Ranger a girl; Disney initially gave a very firm no and were uneasy about making A-Squad's Red a woman.
  • The A-Squad helmets are copies of the Power Rangers in Space helmets, with the uniforms being recycled motocross gear.
  • Charlie is the only A-Squad Ranger to have an official name mentioned; however, her name is only revealed in the credits.
    • She is also the only A-Squad Ranger whose voice wasn't dubbed by a different person (not counting A-Squad Blue Ranger who was presumably mute).
  • The UK's Jetix Magazine S.P.D. strip had a different finale to the show: there, Charlie was brainwashed instead of corrupted. The B-Squad defeated her team saved her and were later promoted to A-Squad themselves.
