3 weeks later, Jason and Trini have moved back to Angel Grove. What should've been a joyus time turned dark and traumatic fairly quickly for the Ranger family. Last week, Zach and Angela got into a really bad car accident and unfortunately Angela lost her life while Zach was in an induced coma. It broke everyone 's heart when his father told him and they watched as Zach crumbled. Today they buried Angela and today Trini and Jason find out on what they are having.
We go to the hospital, Trini and Jason are in a doctors office. Trini is laying on a table while rubbing her stomach. Jason is sitting next to her while on the phone.
Jason: Kim how is he?(listens)ok we'll take over after the doctors appointment(silence) Tommy will be there tonight so he'll be covered. Ok we'll see you in about an hour. Ok bye(hangs up)
Trini: What did Kim say? How is Zach?
Jason: Bummed! She said he still hasn't spoken to anyone yet.
Trini: Poor Zach! We should've rescheduled this appointment. We should be there for him.
Jason: I agree! But he wanted us to come here. Zach mumbled to me that he could use some good news.
Trini: My heart breaks for him! He was a couple of months from his fifth year(sniffs)they were going to try to have a baby this year(tears come down and he wipes her face)
Jason: I know baby! Look we will get back to Zach as soon as we can.
Trini: I couldn't imagine my life without you Jason
Jason: Shh! Don't you think about that ok?(kisses her head)Come on let's have a little sunshine on this awful gray day.
Trini: You're right(there is a knock on the door. Wipes her face quickly)come in(An older woman with short brunette hair walks in)good afternoon Dr. Noel
Dr. Noel: Trini(walks over and shakes her hand)how are you dear?(notices Trini's eyes are red)Are those tears of excitement?
Trini: Mixed between both
Dr. Noel: What's going on Trini? Whatever your feeling the baby is feeling it too!
Trini: This is not apart of depression ….
Dr. Noel: I won't charge you a hidden fee Trini!(crosses her arms)Especially since I've known you since you were 5years old(looks at Jason)both of you
Jason: Hey Dr. Noel
Dr. Noel: Good afternoon Jason! So what's going on?
Jason: Zach had to bury Angie today(crosses his arms)so It's been an emotional week.
Dr. Noel: Oh dear(sighs)I forgot about that! I sent him some flowers and some money. How is he?
Jason: Not very talkative. Billy stayed with him last night and he slept last night for the first time since the coma. It was only for three hours but he needed it.
Dr. Noel: It is a such a horrible and sad event! I forgot that's why Aisha wasn't here yet. She was at the funeral(rubs Trini's leg)My sweet it will be ok. Just take it easy….you are carrying something special.
Trini: I know I've been trying! I just loved Angie so much and Zach(holds her chest)His reaction when he found out about her….just keeps playing in my head.
~Memory~
Jason and Trini rush into the hospital where Kim, Billy, Aisha, Adam, Rocky and Kat are standing.
Trini: How are they?(she sees Adam holding Aisha who is crying)what's going on?(Jason holds on to Trini's shoulders. Kim has a few tears coming from her eyes)oh my God(panicked)Zach!
Kat: No(shakes her head)Angie didn't make it! She passed away a few(stops and starts crying and Rocky holds her)
Trini:(softly)Oh no(covers her mouth)
Jason:(calmly)how?(holds Trini as she breaks down)
Billy: She got most of the impact. She was bleeding through her brain. The doctors tried to stop it but they couldn't(moves uncomfortably)her parents are in the back with Angie now.
Jason: shh(kisses Trini's head)and Zach?
Billy: They put him in a medically induced Coma! He has a broken arm from trying to stop the Air bag from hitting Angie. A couple of bruises. When they found them, Zach was(starts crying)covering her. They thought he took most of the damage but they were wrong.
Kim: Come here Billy(pulls him into a hug)(to Jason solemnly)they say Zach will make a full recovery.
Jason: Where is Tonya?
Kim: She was in San Diego! She's on a flight to Angel Grove right now.
Jason: Did anyone call Tommy?
Rocky: I spoke with him! He is in South America but he will be here tomorrow morning
Jason: That man is always on the move(looks around)Let's sit down(everyone agrees and goes over to the waiting room)I'm sorry that we got here late. We were in China town with Trini's parents. How long has he been in a Coma?
Kim: Almost two hours
Aisha: This is not fair(pulls away from Adam)They were supposed to be celebrating their fifth year and supposed to be starting a family. Then some drunk driver decides to snatch it all away(angrily)It wasn't even 6pm. He is alive…and without a scratch on his body.
Adam: Honey(rubs her shoulder)I know(Aisha sighs)I know baby
Aisha: I need to hear my baby's voice(stands up)I'm going to call AJ. Come get me if he wakes up before I come back(walks towards the pay phone)
Kat: I got her(stands up and follows her. Trini now sits up and looks at her teammates who are all depressed and say nothing)
Trini: How could this happen?(they look at her. Jason takes her hand)We all just had dinner last night and everything was prefect.
Kim: I know Trini
Adam: He tried to protect her. I was right around the corner when my friend Morris called me about the accident. Morris was the police officer at the scene. He recognized Zach and called me right away. I(rubs his fingers in his hair)I saw it!(mumbles)I saw the car and them both. It's a miracle he survived it. He was covering her and motionless.(sighs) He should've been hurt much worse.
Rocky:(to Billy) Do you think it's the fact that he was a(mumbles)Ranger?
Billy: That's a good question(they look at him) I mean our powers did intertwine with our DNA! That's how we are able to heal fairly quickly. But we haven't been in something so traumatic in a while.
Trini: Jason got in that car accident before he became the Gold Ranger….he bruised pretty bad.
Jason:(mumbles)but it should've been worse. (loudly)Billy could you possibly look into it?
Billy: Right away(sighs) I wish Zordon was here to answer these questions.(Kim pats his arm)
Trini: How was Angie, Adam? When you pulled up to the scene?
Adam: She was not conscious but when they put her in the ambulance she woke up for just a second and said Zach's name. I tried talking to her and she went unconscious again.
Billy: About an hour ago, her mother said she was conscious and was going into surgery. We expected her to be ok but then her brain hemorrhaged. It was so unexpected.
Adam: What are we going to do? I mean I doubt Zach will want to talk about any of this. Remember when he's childhood dog died? He cut people off for two days. This is his wife.
Jason: We just have to be here for Zach. No matter if he wants to talk or not(they nod in agreement)
Kim: We'll take it one step at a time(Zach's father walks out of the back)Mr. Sam(everyone turns to the door)hi(stands as does everyone else)
Adam:(calls)Honey(Kat and Aisha see him wave and rush back over)
Kim: How is Zach?
Sam: He is awake(they sigh in relief)He is asking for you guys and Angie. We haven't told him about Angie. We wanted you to be there before we do.
Aisha: We're here for you Mr. Sam(he nods and they head towards the back. They walk towards the room and look in. Zach is laying there with a broken arm and bruised face. Zach's mom is standing outside of the door with doctor)Mrs. Elaine(goes over and gives her a hug)
Elaine: Hello everyone(they let go of each other as everyone waves)
Jason: What's going on?(looks at the doctor)
Dr. Ross: Zach might be awake but is still in critical condition! I'm sorry but you cannot all go in(everyone looks bummed)and I don't think you should tell him about his wife right now.
Sam: Oh he is going to know!(upset)I'm not going to have my son not knowing about his wife.
Elaine: Sam(softly)please calm down
Dr. Ross: Fine, it's your decision but still only two people can go in at a time. So make your decision(the Rangers look at Jason who nods)
Jason: I'll go with you Mr. Taylor
Sam: ok!(the doctor walks off annoyed)Dr. Ross drives me crazy(clears his voice)Are you ready son?
Jason: Yeah(looks at Trini who gives him a weak smile)
Trini: We'll be here(they kiss)
Jason: ok(him and Mr. Sam walk into the room as they walk in Tonya rushes through the doors)
Billy: Tonya!
Tonya: How is he? How is Angie?(sees Zach's mom)Mrs. Elaine(hugs her)
Elaine: Hello Tonya(they let go)
Tonya: Oh my gosh, I got here as soon as I could!(sees everyone's smug look)what happened?
Billy: Tonya(carefully) Angie didn't make it.
Tonya:(softly)what?(everyone looks at away or nods no)oh no(covers her mouth)but..(Rocky wraps his arm around her)
Billy:(mumbles)She passed away about 30minutes ago(Tonya now starts crying)and they are getting ready to tell Zach.
Tonya: They?(Trini who has not taken her eyes off of Zach points. Tonya looks in the room. Jason and Sam stand on either side of Zach. They watch as Zach's eyes open and he looks between the both of them. Zach smiles a little at Jason. Jason smiles back and says something. Zach nods and points to his cast. Mr. Sam says something else. Zach nods and tries to sit up. Both Jason and Mr. Sam quickly go into action with helping him sit up. Zach smiles and says something that makes Jason smirk and pat his shoulder. Zach then says something and Jason looks down)
Kim: Here it goes(Trini takes her hand and they continue to watch. Zach looks at his dad then he notices everyone standing outside looking at him. When Zach sees Tonya crying he frowns and looks at his dad. Zach says something to him and his father touches his arm. Zach looks at Jason who uses all his strength to look Zach in the eyes but pain evident. Zach looks at his father and says something. They watch Sam say something and Zach shake his head "no". Sam nods "yes' and continues to talk)
Zach:(yells)No damn it(everyone's heart now breaks)(hoarsely)Angie(tries to get out of the bed but his dad stops him)you're lying(both Jason and his father hold him back)Angie!(Zach soon stops fighting when he realizes that this is no joke. Zach crumbles and Jason quickly pulls him in a hug and cries with him. Mr. Sam rubs Zach's shoulder and kisses his head)
Trini:(crying)Zach(starts crying and Kim holds her. Adam is holding both his wife and Zach's mom as they cry. Everyone is having a complete breakdown)
~~~Memory ends~~~
Trini wipes her face
Trini: It just keeps playing in my head(Jason takes her hand)
Dr. Noel: then lets change that image to something positive and see if you are going to have a boy or girl(Trini and Jason now smile)
Jason: That sounds like a good idea(the door opens and Aisha walks into to the room)Sha!
Aisha: Sorry that I'm late(walks over and kisses both Trini and Jason on the cheek)
Dr. Noel: It's ok Dear….we understand the circumstances.
Aisha: I had to make sure AJ was settled at my parents after the funeral and(sighs)my mom(stops)never mind this is about you guys(Jason laughs)what did I miss?
Dr. Noel: Nothing we were just going to start the Sonogram
Aisha: Great, so I didn't miss anything!
Trini: Nope(smiles)you get to get the good news before everyone.
Aisha: Excellent!(looks at Dr. Noel)Are you ready?
Dr. Noel: I'll let you do it Aisha
Aisha: Me?
Dr. Noel: You are taking over for me when I retire in the beginning of the year Dr. Campbell-Park(crosses her arms)so why not?
Jason: Yeah Sha! Why not?(Aisha sticks her tongue out at him and nods)
Aisha: Ok!(turns off the lights)Let's do this(washes her hands and Dr. Noel turns on the machine)Shirt up Trini(Trini pulls up her black shirt)Let's see what you are going to have.
Dr. Noel: So Dr. Campbell-Park just by looking at her….what do you think she is going to have?
Aisha: A baby boy!(dries her hands and grabs some gel)
Jason: That's my girl!(Aisha walks over and puts some gel on Trini's stomach)
Trini: My(glares)enemy is more like it!
Aisha: Sorry Tree(laughs)what do you want?
Trini: A girl of course but I know he's a boy…I had a dream that it was a boy.
Dr. Noel: So we are all team boy in this room?
Aisha: Looks like(takes the machine and puts it on her stomach)ok(they see a full picture of the baby)There is the baby(Trini smiles)and it's in the head down position(glares a little)Let's find the heart beat(Jason now stands and takes her hand)ok(moves and they hear the heart beat)there it is.
Dr. Noel: Very strong heart beat(Trini smiles bigger)
Aisha: And is developing well. Baby is growing at the right pace! The baby is the size of a banana…and is about 10 ½ ounces(Dr. Noel smiles at Aisha's knowledge)Ten fingers(scans)and toes(scans)stomach looks good(happily)Are you ready to know the gender?
Jason: wait(pulls out his camera and starts recording)my parents are out of town.
Dr. Noel: I can record it!(takes the camera and points towards Trini and Jason)ok are you ready mom and dad?
Trini: Yes(they look at the screen)
Aisha: and(smiles)the legs are wide open and there is Mr. Winkie(Trini laughs as Jason starts clapping)
Jason: Hell Yeah!(starts jumping)Yes my boy!(Aisha shakes her head while laughing)I got a boy!
Trini:(laughs)Jason! Watch your mouth(he smiles and they kiss)and yeah you do!
Jason: I love you Tree!
Trini: I love you too(they kiss again)We are gonna have to talk to him about keeping his legs closed in the future.
Jason:(smiles)I will have the talk with him…don't worry(Trini giggles)
Dr. Noel: Congratulations you two
Trini: Thank you!(softly)Aisha thank you
Aisha: No problem you two! I'm happy to do it! This was such an amazing experience. Kim is going to be so bummed. She thought it was a girl for sure!
Jason: Right(seriously)Sha! Can you hurry and take some pictures? I need to tell Zach(Trini looks at Jason and sees his face of determination. Dr. Noel stops filming at this point. Aisha nods and they look back at the screen. The baby starts to suck his finger)
Trini:(laughs)look at him
Aisha: Someone is hungry(they laugh)
Jason: Don't worry son! We'll feed you(kisses Trini's hand and they keep looking at the screen)
