History[]
Wesley and Jen
Wesley lives in the year 2001. When Ransik and the Time Force Rangers arrive from 3000, Wes saves Jen Scotts (the Pink Time Force Ranger and team leader) from an attack by Cyclobots, revealing to her that he is genetically identical to the Red Ranger in the future, Alex. Jen gives Wes the Red Chrono Morpher so that he can activate it and, at the same time, allow her and the other three Time Force officers to morph into Power Rangers. He refuses to do so without an explanation, at which point Jen angrily leaves since she sees him as a privileged rich boy with no life experience. He follows and activates the Morpher after seeing the Power Rangers take a beating, becoming the Red Time Force Ranger. Jen initially does not want Wes to keep the Morpher since she sees him as someone with no life experience who has had everything handed to him in life. After the defeat of Jetara though, he reveals his commitment and (along with urging from the other Rangers), she reluctantly accepts his continued role on the team.
Over time, Jen developed true affection for Wes. However, when Alex mysteriously returned, seemingly from the dead, and stripped Wes of the Red Time Force Ranger powers, Jen found herself asking which of them she loved more. Alex had become bitter and stern, "following the book" to the degree that he would accept no suggestions beyond his own, unlike Wes who was team-oriented and friendly. Ironically, it was the differences between Wes and Alex that made her choose Wes.Alex is revealed to still deeply care for Jen because as soon as he hears that she's in trouble he sends Wes the Strata Cycle saying that since he's not there himself he trusts Wes to take care of Jen for him. This causes Wes to start to back off because he thinks Jen and Alex are still perfect for each other (after what Alex did he can understand what Jen saw in him) not realizing that Jen was starting to fall for him more. Wes makes sure to inform Jen of Alex's actions at a moment when she was seemingly about to admit her feelings for him. Upon arrival, Jen learns from Alex that Wes was killed in the eventual fight which devastated her. Furthermore, Jen and the other Rangers had to, by Time Force policy, have their memories of the past wiped clean. Not wanting to lose Wes, either from his death or from having her memory wiped clean, Jen chooses to return back in time to help him in battle as the other Rangers followed, while at the same time, formally ending her engagement with Alex. While heartbroken, Alex allowed them to go and instructs Jen to use the Time Force Megazord to get to the past as it has the best chance of surviving the trip, to which Jen thanks him for the advice.
In the end, the Rangers were forced to return to their own time. Jen left Wes her Time Force Badge and finally told Wes she loves him which Wes sadly returned.
