Consumed By

 * TurbanShell

General
Tommy is a genuinely good teenager, heroic and self-sacrificing to a fault. Time and again, Tommy has proven that he’s willing to risk his own well being in order to protect his friends and the citizens of Angel Grove. He is focused, determined and will never walk away from a fight.

Regarding Scenario
With his Green Ranger powers almost completely gone, Tommy is willing to let himself be eaten by TurbanShell, in order to weaken the monster from the inside. His sacrifice was not vain as his teammates were able to save him by freezing TurbanShell with water.

Background
Prior to becoming a Ranger, Tommy was a relatively average, albeit physically adept, high school student who joined Angel Grove High School after relocating to the city. He was put under a spell and forcibly recruited by the evil Rita Repulsa, becoming the Green Ranger. The other Rangers eventually broke the spell placed on Tommy and he joined them afterwards, becoming an ally for good and retaining his identity and powers as the Green Ranger. However, his powers were limited and would eventually expire, which would ultimately lead to him gaining new powers and becoming the White Ranger.

Scenario
In the episode Green No More Part 2, Tommy deceives TurbanShell by hiding in a cart of watermelons, which TurbanShell eats. Tommy attacks the monster from the inside with intense heat and then Zack grabs a nearby water hose, rapidly cooling TurbanShell's exterior, causing him to freeze.

Fate
With the monster severely weakened, and Tommy regurgitated as a green ranger-coloured energy sphere that distends outwards and retakes human form, the Thunderzords are brought back, and the Rangers quickly defeat the monster with the Thunder Saber.
