Tommy and Kimberly are at the Youth Center, watching Kimberly's cousin Kelly work on her cheerleading routine for tryouts later. Initially Kelly is able to keep up with the routine. Kimberly thinks Kelly is doing great. Tommy thinks it's pretty cool that Kimberly's cousin wants to be a cheerleader like Kimberly. After awhile, Kelly has a hard time keeping up with the routine and finds herself out of step with the rest of the group. She gets embarrassed when she shouts out win, after everyone else has already finished the routine. Tommy and Kimberly exchange sympathetic glances as Kelly walks slowly towards them. Kimberly asks Kelly, what's wrong? Kelly replies, isn't it obvious? I can't do it. Junior tryouts are later today. If I don't have it down by now, there's no use. Kimberly volunteers to show her the routine. I know you can do this. Kimberly goes through the routine. Kelly is impressed and tells Kimberly you are so good. Everybody at school still talks about what a great cheerleader you were. Kimberly replies, well now it's your turn. Kelly is not so sure.
Rita had been watching the Youth Center. Baboo, Squatt, and Goldar are all with her. Rita is upset. I'm the only one those pom poms heads should be cheering! You just wait! Squatt quickly tells her, we'll cheer for you. Rita yells at Finster, who is in his monster making room, what is taking you so long with my new monster?! Finster replies, the terrible Lizzinator is almost ready. Goldar adds, meanwhile, we'll kidnap the little cheerleader Kelly. Baboo and Squatt think this is a good idea. Rita plays with the clay monsters. Finster comments, that will keep the Rangers busy while Lizzinator destroys Earth. Goldar exclaims, victory is near thanks to the Lizzinator. Rita adds, and my dear stolen cheerleader.
Trini, Jason, Zack, and Billy enter the Youth Center. Ernie approaches them with a clipboard in his hands. He tells them he is glad to see them. Jason asks, what's up Ernie? Ernie replies, I need someone to run downtown and pick up some supplies I ordered. The delivery truck broke down. Jason takes the clipboard and replies, I'll go. Ernie thanks Jason and tells him he owes him one. Ernie walks away and Jason heads out. Trini, Zack, and Billy walk over to where Tommy is standing. Kimberly is helping Kelly with her routine. Trini asks Tommy, how's she doing? Tommy replies, pretty good. But that's not how Kelly feels. After a few drills, Kelly feels frustrated. She shakes her head and yells, forget it! I can't do it. Kimberly is feeling a little exasperated as well. Kelly continues, let's face it. I'm never going to be as good as you Kimberly. Why should I even bother trying out for the team! Kelly throws her pom poms to the floor and runs out of the Youth Center. Kimberly yells at Kelly to wait, but Kelly is already gone.
Kimberly and Tommy find Kelly at the playground at the park.
