RPM #11 "DOCTOR K": Smart Child Slavery

Wow, Dr. K's remark to Ziggy was c-c-cold, but now that we know the trauma she went through, I'm not surprised.

Liked that they brought up the issue how the Venjix hardware is getting stronger quick.

Nice foreshadowing to Gem and Gemma returning with Series Gold and Silver, while Dr. K is saddened having believed they died.

So Broodwing became a Government agent who's partially responsible for seeking and looking after smart children -- enslaved to work on computer programming. Makes sense to me. <_<

Another great callback, seeing K make the recording to the citizens to go to Corinth. Hopefully they'll fill more of the background soon of when Summer, Scott and Flynn were recruited and received their morphers.

Clever plan to bring the defunct bot to The Garage so they could get a mirror copy of the part needed for Zenith Megazord. These Megazord intros tied in with the episodes plot are exactly how it should be done. And with all the times the villains have been/will be in the Rangers base this year, I'm gonna be hoping it'll finally get destroyed in the finale (Judd Lynn did blow up the Power Chamber for good after all).

Loved the violin over the zord battle. Absolutely perfect how it went with K playing it. Nice piano music too. Interesting how she seems to use musical instruments to focus and find solutions to problems.

Yeah, zooming inside the helmets was cool at first, but got way overdone. I'd say Eddie got a little too happy using their own cockpits.

Overall, this was one of the most beautifully executed episode ever, especially the music and butterfly scene. RPM continues to squash the past couple years.
