RYAN
Page Two
Taking another look around, Ryan dumped all his stuff into a dumpster. Ryan walked away from the dumpster and started shouting. Ryan: Okay! I did it! I kept my promise! Ryan turned around when he heard a voice behind him. It was Mia and Kevin. Mia: Hey! Don't you have a game today? Ryan: No. I quit playing baseball. Kevin: How come? Ryan: I can't tell you! Ryan took off running. Mia and Kevin ran after him. A staff hit the ground and made a loud noise. Ryan, Mia, and Kevin all turned around. It was Doubletone and he was laughing as he pulled his staff out of the ground. Doubletone: Buzz off Rangers! (Does this mean Ryan knows that Mia and Kevin are Samurai Rangers?) Mia can't believe it's Doubletone again. Kevin asks him what is he up to? Doubletone tells them nothing, you nosy Rangers. My friend and I made a deal. Right kid? Ryan looks down at his baseball chain and give the baseball a squeeze. A garbage truck comes and stops at a house. Ryan stares at the garbage truck. Kevin quickly puts two and two together. He asks Doubletone why he made Ryan throw away his baseball equipment? Doubletone explains that Ryan loved playing baseball. I got him to give up his dreams. Now that he is so sad, the Sanzu River will be flooding in no time. Ryan reminds Doubletone that he promised that if he gave up something special, he would get something even more special back. Doubletone warns Ryan not to say anything. Ryan asks Doubletone where is he? Doubletone replies you have to be patient. Kevin calls Doubletone a liar. Kevin warns Ryan not to listen to Doubletone, he is just trying to trick you. Mia asks Ryan what did Doubletone promise you? Ryan is distracted by the sight and sound of the dumpster being emptied into the garbage truck. Doubletone gloats. Ryan explains that his father is in the army and had to go away. Doubletone said if I gave up baseball, he would bring back my dad. Ryan remembers when his dad gave him the baseball chain as a lucky charm. Ryan's dad told him he would be thinking of him at the playoff game. They hugged. Ryan continues to cry at this memory. Doubletone laughs at Ryan's tears. Mia can't believe Doubletone try to make him give up his dreams. Mia tells Ryan to leave and Ryan takes off running. The Power Rangers destroy Doubletone with the Samurai Megazord. Later, Ryan sits on a bench at the baseball, watching his team warm up.
