SIMON

Simon - Jonathan Robinson

Simon is a young friend of Joel Rawlings.  He is very smart and likes to invent high tech equipment.  Simon invited Joel to come over to check out his telescope - he had modified the telescope's lens, making the telescope more powerful.  Joel was impressed when he took a look through the telescope.  Occupied with the telescope, Simon used his scanner on Joel's morpher.  Joel noticed and quickly yank his wrist away - wanting to know what Simon was doing.  Simon wanted to work at Lightspeed and ask Joel if he could.  Joel gently told Simon that they did serious work at Lightspeed, but if he worked hard, he could work anywhere.  Joel had to leave.  Simon went back to his telescope, despite his mom telling him it was bedtime.  Simon was impressed and stunned when he saw an asteroid.  The following day, Simon contacted Joel over his morpher - telling him he had something urgent to show him.  Frazzled Joel went over to Simon's house.  Simon was waiting for Joel outside and hopped into the Rescue Rover as soon as Joel show up.  Joel was upset with Simon - Simon had contacted Joel in front of Captain Mitchell - and told him that he could have gotten Joel in a lot of hot water.  Simon wasn't fazed.  He told Joel he knew that he thought he was just a kid, but he was a smart kid.  Simon told Joel that a giant asteroid was heading straight for Mariner Bay.  Joel was skeptical at first.  Simon showed Joel his binder which contain numerous notes and figures about the approaching asteroid.  Joel realized that Simon was serious and they quickly took off for the Aqua Base.  Simon was very impressed when he entered the Aqua Base.  He looked around as Joel tried to get busy Miss Fairweather's attention.  Joel couldn't get Miss Fairweather's attention, but Simon told Joel to keep trying.  Joel attempted again while Simon spotted what he needed.  He entered an enclosed control booth and began working on the computer.  One of the techs working with Miss Fairweather pointed out that the test program had shut down.  Joel spotted Simon in the control booth.  Joel, Miss Fairweather, and a tech tried to entered the control booth, but the door was locked.  Simon was only mildly irate at the adults as they attempted to get in, and he continued working on the computer.  Miss Fairweather finally unlocked the door and they all hurried into the booth.  Simon pressed enter on the keyboard as Joel had Simon sit elsewhere.  Simon simply told them to look.  Miss Fairweather did and was stunned to see the giant asteroid.  Simon walked up to her and Miss Fairweather thanked him and gave him a kiss on the check.  The alarm went off and Miss Fairweather told Joel to go.  Simon and Miss Fairweather worked together as the Rangers battled Prince Olympius.  Simon pointed out that the asteroid was bigger and moving faster than what they had anticipated.  Miss Fairweather called the Rangers back and told them it was time to initiate the Omega Project.  Simon was concern for Joel, but Green Ranger told Simon to keep an eye on things.  Simon saluted his friend.  Simon, Miss Fairweather and Captain Mitchell monitored the Rangers progress on the asteroid.  Simon became more worried when he saw that the asteroid was a trap.  A huge explosion occurred on the asteroid and Simon had thought he had lost his friend.  After a few moments of stunned silence, Red Ranger's voice came over the communicator telling them that they were all okay and the asteroid had been destroyed.  Simon cheered along with the rest of Aqua Base.  Joel, Carter, Kelsey, Dana, and Chad entered the Aqua Base to the sound of cheers.  Joel pulled Simon aside.  Simon was enthusiastic about the Aqua Base and especially Miss Fairweather - who was so nice.  Joel told him he had a favor to ask him.  Simon told him sure as Joel placed his cowboy hat on his head.  Joel told Simon that he wanted him to ask Miss Fairweather out.  Simon was a bit surprised.  Joel told him that he would, but he could tell that Miss Fairweather liked Simon.  Simon shrugged and found Miss Fairweather.  Simon asked Miss Fairweather if she would like to go the planetarium with him.  Miss Fairweather happily accepted.  Simon walked back to Joel and told him that she had said yes.  Joel was ecstatic and Simon clarified the situation by telling Joel that Miss Fairweather was going with him.  Miss Fairweather came by and escorted Simon to the planetarium.
