Um actually trap did not attempt to murder pat, it was revealed in the “trapped in darkness” sketch where a crucial piece of evidence threatens to prove his innocence and therefor write him off the show but is not revealed. We know the evidence is genuine because trapp, obsessed with getting famous from the show begs the documentary host not to reveal the evidence and wrote him off the show. This was also rienforced by the sketch “Please research the person you’re hiring” where it was revealed that the main character of the sketch (I believe played by kale hills) has a desktop background with a picture of pat with his eyes crossed out and a folder titled “how I killed pat cassels and assumed his name”.

Much like how you wouldn't measure lateral distance in fathoms, a unit of depth measurement, just because you technically can.

This is distinct from the second movie, Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie, which is established as having taken place just prior to season five of the series (Power Rangers Turbo). Because Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie took place outside of the series continuity, and had a radically different aesthetic,, storyline, and characters, we can't really say for sure that the Zordon featured in the episode who recruited the Rangers had a robe.

Also, the episode *starts* at the end of the field trip, and they get changed into animals while being driven back from the zoo, with the kids-as-animals part as the bulk of the episode. (Not, as seems to be implied here, where the trip to the zoo is the bulk of the episode, and then the kids get turned into animals and thrown into cages right at the end)

Y'know, Haley would've won that one even without the double point shiny and the spite point, and that's just impressive. Also, before I sat and thought about it, I definitely thought those were going to be headshots of Trapp's mom and dad. Then I noticed hair color, hahaha.
