|
Worlds Apart is the twelfth episode of Power Rangers Time Force. The episode introduces the character, Eric Myers and the organization known as the Silver Guardians, created by Mr. Collins in response to Ransik's attacks on Silver Hills.
Synopsis
Mr. Collins unveils his new task force, the Silver Guardians, of which an old schoolmate of Wes, Eric, is a member of. When the Guardians interfere in a battle, Wes' identity is discovered by his father and Eric.
Plot
The Time Force Rangers come across a robbery perpetrated by Nadira that was in the process of being stopped by the newly-formed Silver Guardians, a pay-for-protection group started by Mr. Collins in order to make money to set up Wes' life. After an encounter with his father and his old friend Eric Myers, Wes recounts their time together in prep school.
Meanwhile, Frax unleashes Univolt, a mutant from the X-Vault, where only the most powerful mutants are stored, without the knowledge of Ransik. The Time Force Rangers and the Silver Guardians deploy to meet the threat. The Time Force Rangers, having arrived first, were soundly beaten by this new mutant and his army of Cyclobots before the Silver Guardians arrived. They engaged the Cyclobots, and the Time Rangers regrouped and went on to attack Univolt, only to be beaten again.
The Silver Guardians' weapons proved to be ineffective, forcing Wes to block a shot from the mutant to save the Guardians' field commander. The resulting damage shattered the visor on Wes' helmet, revealing his identity to his father and Eric. This led to a verbal confrontation between Wes and his father regarding the latter's greedy nature, from which Wes storms away to rejoin his team. Using his Time Strike Technique followed by the Vortex Blaster, the Rangers manage to defeat Univolt, and contain him.
In the Prison Ship, Ransik and Nadira wonder who sent Univolt, as they never had seen him before, hearing this Frax hides the X-Vault key before Ransik and Nadira approach him, and accuse him of treachery, but Frax manages to convince them that robots aren't capable of thinking for themselves.
Mr. Collins came to Wes to offer him a position as the commander of the Silver Guardians. Wes turns it down, citing that the Time Force Rangers help everyone, not just those who can afford it. Mr. Collins says he simply does not understand Wes before leaving.

Errors
- In one scene, you can -almost- completely see the face of Eric's Super Sentai counterpart, Naoto Takizawa. Due to the two actors looking highly similar, a lot of Timeranger footage was kept showing Naoto from a distance, and in one scene, his face is covered briefly, but he begins to pull his hands away, giving a brief glimpse of Naoto's face.
- When the Rangers go to pick up trash, the popcorn disappears.
Notes
