716-DFrG.
- High Councilor Renier, the supreme authority in
the five-member High Command presiding
over Terra Venture, was a black woman
probably in her sixties.
- Commander
Stanton, giving a progress report to the council, suggested they maintain course and
speed, and High Councilor Renier approved his recommendation, saying
they would re-evaluate when they entered the next galaxy.
- Just then, Mike entered,
and there was some whispering; Stanton uttered a shocked, "Mike."
- Shaking hands with Mike,
Stanton had thought they'd left him
on the "practice moon," although this seems like
an odd name for their training area on the moon.
- As Mike searched for an
explanation for his absence, Renier interjected to Stanton that whatever the reason, she
thought she could speak for all of them when she said they were glad to
have him back safe and sound; Stanton
agreed and asked Mike to be at Command Headquarters at 0800.
- Whether Renier suspected any association between
Mike's absence and secret Ranger goings-on is unknown, but she did
seem somewhat quick to sidestep the issue of his disappearance.
718-ReMi.
- After Terra
Venture received an alien
distress signal, Stanton and Mike were soon at High
Command briefing the councilors.
- After Renier had concluded that they'd have to
divert from their course if they tried to help, Councilor Brody reminded them of their
goal, to find a New World in the Eurolean Galaxy, and that they weren't equipped
for rescue missions, making it just too risky.
- Mike began to interject
but then stepped back, apologizing; Renier told him not to keep them on
the edge of their seats, an interest perhaps sparked by knowledge of Mike's association with the Rangers, but this is by no means certain.
- Mike spoke, "Our mission
doesn't spell out that we have to rescue others in times of trouble.";
Brody agreed, but Mike continued, "But that's because it doesn't need
to be spelled out. Helping should be second nature. As you said, it's
dangerous out there. And the day may come when we have to send a
distress signal of our own."
- After Brody
and Renier had looked at each other, Renier commended Mike and had Stanton put together his best rescue
team.
724-GrCr.
- Walking down a hallway with Renier, Brody, and two guards, Stanton presented Renier with Status
Report and Progress Report briefings, saying the meteoroid field would
be there in two hours, but they would be safe as long as they changed
course.
- Renier approved of Stanton's proceedings, and when Damon approached to return a report Renier had
dropped, the two guards grappled him.
- Telling the guards it
wasn't against the law to be polite, Renier thanked Damon as she took the paper back, and he was
embarrassed as she smirked at the greasy fingerprints he'd left on the
paper.
- Outside, the two councilors walked out of a building with
their two guards but were quickly surrounded
by Stingwingers which had been
impersonating Terra Venture personnel.
- Jasper shot at a Stingwinger with a yellow laser burst from
his energy pistol, but the Stingwinger
deflected it with its claw hand, and Stingwingers grappled the two councilors.
- As Green
Ranger, arriving, led the councilors
away, he was suddenly shot in the back by Cannonbrawl.
- Green
Ranger fought off the villains as the guards rushed the councilors away, but Stingwingers managed to grapple Renier, and
an orange energy sphere from Cannonbrawl's cannon struck
Renier, turning her into an orange energy sphere which flew away to the
Scorpion Stinger.
- Soon then, a transmission from Trakeena tuned in to monitors all over Terra Venture, demanding that they send her
their best mechanic to repair her engines so she could escape the
approaching meteor storm.
- When Stanton
asked about Renier, they were shown a shot of Renier held by Stingwingers, shouting desperately for Stanton not to do as Trakeena said, and Trakeena then gave Stanton ten minutes to make up his mind.
- Later, Renier was pacing in a barred cell
chamber, with a skeleton apparently in the adjacent cell.
- Outside the cell were Stingwingers, two of which were
armwrestling, before Leo caught their attention
and them beat them all up.
- Leo assured Renier she
would be all right, and when she asked who he was, he replied he was a
stowaway.
- After fumbling with the door, Leo stepped behind a nearby steaming stalagmite and,
probably within hearing distance, told Damon
over his Transmorpher to open the cell
door, using Damon's name.
- Soon, the cell door popped open, and Leo led Renier out; at that point, the ship began to
rumble as the meteor storm arrived.
- When Damon encountered Leo and Renier in a corridor, both parties fleeing
for their lives, Renier was upset that Damon had
come as well, having ordered him not to come.
- As the three fled, their path was blocked by Cannonbrawl, who fired an
explosive orange energy sphere which they dodged.
- Damon attempted to fight
the robot monster as Leo took Renier past them;
Renier pleaded that they couldn't leave him, but Leo kept rushing her toward the heliship port ahead.
- After beating Damon to
the ground, Cannonbrawl
followed Leo and Renier; in the heliship, Renier wanted to go back
for Damon, whose name she knew, but Cannonbrawl blasted at the
doorway.
- Damon grabbed the
monster's arm but was knocked against a wall, and Renier slung a metal
case under the monster's foot, making him trip; Damon then leapt over the monster and sprayed it
with a jet of steam from a nearby hose.
- Once Damon was in, the heliship flew away, and all three
were pleased to see Terra Venture ahead;
after whooping with Leo, Damon went to give Renier a high-five, but she
cleared her throat, making him calm down.
- Soon, Cannonbrawl teleported to Terra Venture and blasted at a heliship flying overhead, but the heliship containing Renier and crew had already landed safely
elsewhere, with Mike having left immediately; Leo and Damon had left
shortly after him.
- Later, Damon was working
on an outdoor fuse panel near a street with Leo's
help when the councilors' two guards spoke their full names, and one then
nodded to Renier, prompting her to get out of a Terra Venture car driven by a gray-suited
man, joining up with Stanton and Brody.
- Approaching with Leo, Damon predicted Renier would tell them they
shouldn't have tried to save her, but she held up a finger to cut him
off; meanwhile, a crowd began to gather.
- Renier spoke, "When a life is in a jeopardy, we
sometimes lose sight of what could happen when we dive in to save it.
And sometimes we don't heed caution, (toward Stanton) or commands, for that matter.
(back to Damon) It takes someone with great
courage to think of another without expecting anything in return, and I
hope you do the same if something like this should happen again."
- Renier took a medal (identical to the one given
to Matthew in 705-Hmsk) from the box Brody was holding and put it on Damon for his bravery, then another on Leo as well, and the audience clapped.
- Renier told Damon to
raise his hand, and he did so confusedly, allowing her to give him a
cheerful high five.
735-EnLG.
- Some time after an accidental surge from the Galaxy Book had disabled most of the colony's
power, Stanton stood before High Command.
- Renier told Stanton that when they'd decided to
research "this Galaxy Book," they'd had no
idea it would pose a danger to the entire colony.
- After being caught trying to steal the Galaxy Book, a man dressed as a worker (actually the Guardian) later stood in handcuffs in High Command.
- When Stanton
entered, Renier told him the man hadn't said a word, so Stanton had him taken away to a
detention cell.
736-BMut.
- In High Command
after Terra Venture had been thrust into
the Lost Galaxy, Renier asked about
backtracking their course, but Stanton said they didn't know where
they'd come from, as none of their navigation programs appeared to work
there.
740-HGrv.
- In Command
Headquarters late at night after the resurrected monster invasion and Hexuba's destruction, Renier sat alone at a
control panel sipping from a silver canteen when Stanton entered with Kai and Mike.
- Stanton
apologized for getting Renier up at this hour, but she replied the hour
was unimportant, asking for any news; Stanton said they had just discovered
their fuel reserves had been tainted, with
only one or two days left.
- Once they lost engine
power, they would lose their systems one by one until there was nothing
left; when the environmental controls
shut down, the colony would freeze, and nothing would survive.
743-End1.
- Soon after escaping the Lost Galaxy, Terra
Venture slowly drifted through space with
only one engine cluster and its neighboring
cylindrical booster on.
- In High Command, Stanton told the councilors they had
only one engine remaining, and their fastest
speed was only one-tenth of normal: they were going nowhere, slowly.
? When asked if he had
any ideas where they could land, Stanton brought up a monitor display of
a planet within reach, what would later be
revealed to be Mirinoi.
- Stanton said
they'd just received the first aerial images from the probe, showing
beautifully tranquil images of lush forest lands with great amounts of
water.
- Brody thought
it was beautiful, and Renier congratulated Stanton on leading them to the New World.
- Renier and Brody happily shook Stanton's hand and patted him on the
back.
- As Stanton
gave an announcement to the citizens of Terra Venture from Command Headquarters, Councilor Brody, and High Councilor
Renier were lined up beside him.
- Begun by Renier after Stanton's announcement, the group in Command Headquarters began clapping for Stanton.
- After the detached city
dome's devastating crash-landing on Mirinoi's moon the next morning, Stanton was met by a weary Brody and Renier in the trashed Command Headquarters.
- Renier asked how much longer, but Stanton replied not much; if the main
dome collapsed, he said, they wouldn't survive.
- Brody asked
Stanton if he was suggesting they
abandon Terra Venture, stunning the
entire room of GSA officers.
- After looking around, Stanton replied, "This ship is dying. I
don't want us to die with it!" and Renier agreed, "Evacuate the ship,
Commander."
745-End3.
- After High Command
and Stanton had been watching Red Ranger's fight with Trakeena on the city
dome from a monitor in their settlement on Mirinoi, the crowd in the GSA tent looked into the sky anxiously as the roaring
city dome approached in the sky.
- As people ran screaming through the camp, Stanton, and nearby Brody and Renier, hit the ground as the
city dome roared overhead.
- When the Rangers
leapt down after surviving the crash of the city dome (slowed by the Galaxy Megazord), everyone rushed forward
to congratulate them; Renier and Green Ranger immediately
hugged.
Mike and Red Ranger (with a shattered hole
in his helmet over his right eye) immediately hugged.
- It's unknown who, if anyone, knew the Rangers' identities by this point, although the
matching up of Renier with morphed Damon and Stanton with morphed Kai appeared more than coincidental.
