Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
Time Force was very worried about changing the timeline. But in the end Wes and Eric got to keep their powers. Which made no sense since they were from the future.

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
That was a huge head scratcher. They wanted them to keep the powers but had no way to explain why.

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
Somehow it was always supposed to be Wes and Eric as Time Red and Quantum Rangers. It was a paradox. The powers had to stay in the past for the future to happen. Alex and the Rangers just didn't realize this until the end.

Because Time Force was a poorly written series that often contradicted itself.

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
I think they were originally supposed to have returned them. But they changed their minds for the team ups. Since it was weird to have them keep their powers.

Weren't Wes and Eric wearing their morphers in he final scene?

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
Good point, didn't think of that. I will have to check.

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
That was a pretty big oversight. I always thought TF was poorly written

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
He bigger question is why Wes had to stay in the past if the theme of the season was "making your own destiny". The fact Time Force let them keep there morphers and alter the timeline.. Only makes it more ridiculous that Wes couldn't go to the future.

The morphers led to the creation of SPD and Time Force.

Well that makes sense since Wes wasn’t from the future and if he remained in the past then the future would cease to exist
Yes they could make some changes to the timeline but if it was too drastic then it would cause them to possibly disappear

No that’s just a popular fan theory that has no basis.
The simple reason is that the timeline would’ve told Time Force that Wes and Eric had to keep their Morphers because of future threats such as the Mut-Orgs, Armada and Drayvon

That makes a lot of sense. We have to remember the timeline changed a few times that season. So the new timeline probably had Wes and Eric keeping their powers.

Chaos Ranger 05/17/20 06:18 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
Time Force didn't care about altering the past if it benefited them. They could communicate with Wes and Eric to manipulate the past. They had to agents in the past that could help them to create the perfect future. Time Force always wanted Ransik and the Rangers to escape to the past. Alex set the whole thing up and was only pretending to be Logan 's jr officer. Logan wasn't in on the plan until Alex revealed himself as Time Force's true commander. Originally Alex was going to keep the team in the past to achieve his goals once Ransik was captured. But once he realized Wes and Eric could be used, plans changed.

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
This made no sense to me. I liked Time Force but I was a little disappointed by the finale. It felt too rushed and had potholes like this.

Hexagon Ranger 05/18/20 08:47 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
Time Force has its origins with Hexagon. Wes and Eric ended up being important members.

Gold Ranger In Danger 05/18/20 09:55 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
Alex wouldn't have let them keep the morphers if they didn't have a good reason.

Jen's Revenge 05/18/20 09:57 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
Because everyone makes their own destiny and the future is not set. Wes couldn't leave since it wouldn't be fair to his dad. Plus Eric needed his help to protect Silver Hills.

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
There must have been a reason mentioned off screen.

Blastr Zack 05/19/20 10:28 AM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
That was odd. If they were going to allow history to change that much, Wes should have had the choice of joining Time Force in the future.

Pink Alien Ranger 05/19/20 08:20 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
They shouldn't have been able too. Its not like the Time Force Rangers couldn't give them their morphers back in the team up. It was a mistake to not show they gave up their powers.

Ranger Black 05/19/20 08:27 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
They kept the morphers for a reason. It had to be because Time Force new they were supposed to keep them in the current timeline. Wes was needed in the past. It was the real reason why he couldn't go to the future. It wasn't about making his own destiny. If he went to the future all the good was supposed to do would have been prevented. Wes had to stay for the greater good.

Noble Leo 05/20/20 12:29 AM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
They shouldn't have been able to keep them. It made no sense and had to be a mistake by the writers.

Destiny Defeated 05/21/20 09:56 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
I do wish they gave a more explicit explanation for this. As great as Time Force was, the finale was a little clunky.

Tommy's Dragonzord 05/21/20 10:19 PM

Re: Why were Wes and Eric able to keep their morphers?
 
I agree that this made no sense. There is no way letting them keep the morphers wouldn't change the timeline. Its likely they influenced SPD.
