Part I
Int. Barbershop – Daytime
Zack and Blade are in the barbershop getting their hair cut. They are finished and are both looking into mirrors.
Zack: So, Blade, how do I look?
Blade: Not as good as me, but I guess no one can.
Zack: Since I guess that's a compliment, thanks.
Blade: So you ready to go?
Zack: Yeah, man. I gotta hot date with Angela tonight!
Blade: Angela? That's the second time this week. Is the Zackman getting serious?
Zack: Well, one never knows.
They get up pay the bill and walk out.
Ext. Outside the Barbershop – Daytime
Zack and Blade continue to talk.
Blade: Zack, can I talk to you about something?
Zack: Sure.
Blade: You can't tell Tommy or my parents about it, though.
Zack: I can keep a secret.
Blade: Okay, this is kind of hard for me to say. But, I feel like I don't have any family.
Zack: What are you talking about? You've got two great parents and a brother at home.
Blade: I know that but it's, it's…
Zack: You're black and they're white.
Blade: Well, that's part of it. But we're complete opposites on other levels, too.Take Tommy for instance, We eat different stuff, don't listen to the same music, and our styles of fighting are different.
Zack: So you don't wanna live there anymore?
Blade: Of course I do. I just wish I had family that I knew about, blood family, someone who looks like me.
Zack: I understand, man. I used to feel like that about the other guys.
Blade: How'd you get over it?
Zack: I saw past the differences and color of their skin.
Blade: I guess you're right.
Int. Barbershop – Daytime
The barbers are alone and they transform into putties and teleport away.
Int. Rita and Zedd's Lunar Base
The putties bring the hair to Lord Zedd.
Zedd: Oh, you want someone who looks like you, Blade?
Rita: WELL, let's give him some thing he'll never forget.
Zedd: With this lock of Blade's hair, I have the perfect material for a Power Ranger.
Zedd zaps the hair with his staff until it grows to an exact duplicate of Blade. (Colton)
Colt: I am ready to serve you master
Zedd: Good. Finster! Goldar! Bring our friends the tools he needs.
Finster, Goldar: Coming!
Goldar brings Thor's Battle Hammer. Finster brings the Silver Ranger Power Coin.
Zedd: This is your power coin. Just call upon the power of the Silver Warrior when the time is right.
Rita: AND here's your battle hammer. It once belonged to Thor the God of Thunder until we took it from him.
Zedd: And when the time is right destroy them.
Int. Angel Grove Gym and Juice Bar – Afternoon
Tommy and Blade are sparring. The distincness in their styles show. Blade uses a Greco Roman takedown to beat Tommy.
Blade: Gotcha!
Tommy: You can't do that in Karate. You have to knock them down or throw them. Do it again.
They go to fighting stance they exchange one and Blade knocks Tommy down with a right cross.
Blade: Good enough!
Tommy, putting a towel on his bleeding lip, walks over to the table when they sit down. Blade has his back to the door while everyone else is facing it.
Kimberly: So who won?
Blade: Me, of course. Tommy's just to much of a whimp to beat me.
Tommy: Well, if you were following the rules…
Blade: I was following the rules.
Blade continues to ramble when Colton, the evil clone, walks in. Everyone is shocked.
Blade: What's wrong wit y'all?
Colton: I'm looking for Blade Oliver.
Blade turns around stunned barely able to speak.
Blade: I'm Blade.
Colton: Well, I'm Colton. I'm your twin.
Blade: I have a twin? Cool!
Tommy: Well, why don't you come to the house?
Colton: That would be fun. Well, I gotta go back to the hotel and tell my folks. And I'll be over.
Blade: That's great!
Ext. Park – Afternoon
The Rangers are walking thorough the park when they are attacked by the Centaback monster and Goldar.
Goldar: Time to fry Rangers.
Blade: IT'S MORPHIN TIME
Tommy: Tigerzord!
Zack: Mastadon!
Kimberly: Pteradactyl!
Billy: Triceratops!
Trini: Sabertooth Tiger!
Jason: Tyrannosaurus!
Blade: Gladiator!
They jump into action.
Centiback: Putties, attack!
The putties attack and are mangled as usual.
Blade: Your turn!
Jason: That's right your goin down!
They fight Centiback and Goldar. The power of them both is too strong.
Billy: He's too strong!
Trini: I don't think we can beat him.
Suddenly, Colton, the Silver Ranger, flips through the air.
Blade: A Silver Ranger!
They all get up and fall in behind him.
Blade: Whoever you are, thanks for your help.
Colton: I will help.
He zaps the Rangers with his hammer. Then Lord Zedd's Z appears on his chest.
Colton: Help to destroy you.
Part II
Colton: Silver Warrior Zord power.
The Zord appears and he climbs inside trying to wreak havoc.
Jason: Let's show him the power of THUNDER.
They summon their Thunderzords, assemble the Thunder Megazord, and go to work.
Colton (Inside the zord): I'll show you THUNDER!
He uses his hammer to suck the power from the Tiger and Thunderzords.
Zack: He's sucked all our power!
Billy: We're helpless!
The Thunder Megazord and the Tigerzord both fall over. Then the Gladiator Zord appears.
Blade (Inside the zord): One thing you didn't count on my zord doesn't run on Thunder!
The zords duke it out and they both strike each other so hard they fall out of their zords and onto the ground.
Colton: Now you're mine!
Blade: Don't bet on it!
They fight until Blade falls down. Colton stands over him.
Colton: Any last words?
Blade: Only this!
He kicks Colton in the balls and he falls down. The rangers teleport next to Blade.
Tommy: Good work.
Blade: Thanks, bro. Let's get him to the Command Center.
They teleport the Silver Ranger to the Command Center.
Int. Command Center – Afternoon
The Rangers have just arrived.
Blade: Zordon, can we do something for him.
Zordon: Yes. Take the Z of Lord Zedd off of his chest and the spell will be broken.P>Blade breaks it. Colton continues to struggle, and he finally calms down.
Trini: Let's get his helmet off so he can get some air.
Kimberly takes off his helmet and they are shocked and amazed to see Colton's face.
Colton: Let me explain. Zedd made a clone of you Blade, me, to destroy you. He gave me Thor's hammer, a Zord, and the sillver power coin. If not for the original, I would've succeeded. I'm so sorry.
Jason: No problem.
Billy: You were obvoiously under a spell.
Kimberly: You had no control.
Blade: This is their long drawn out way of saying 'apology accepted.'
Colton: Thanks.
Tommy: But, there's only one thing left to do.
Blade: I almost forgot.
Blade shakes Colt's hand.
Blade: Welcome to the team!
Zordon: As the Silver Ranger you will be a tremendous help to us in the future.
Colton: I'd be honored, Zordon.
Int. Oliver Household – Nighttime
Tommy, Blade and Colton are waiting for their parents to come in the living room.
Colton: We never went over what you were going to say to mom and dad.
Blade: I've got it covered.
Their parents walk through the door.
Mom: Hi, kids.
Dad: You had a surprise for us?
Tommy: Sit down.
Dad: We'd rather stand.
Tommy: Suit yourself. Take it away.
Blade: Okay, let's just come out with it! Mom, Dad, I'd like to introduce to you my twin brother, Colton.
Colton shows himself.
Colton: Hi!
Mom and Dad both faint and the three brothers laugh at them.
