Zack suggests they head over to the party and they eagerly leave. The Youth Center is packed with teens dancing and enjoying the costume party. Ernie is behind a table that is set up for music. Ernie is dressed like Count Dracula and tells Kimberly and Trini he wants to suck their blood. Kimberly replies I'll take a pass, Ernie. Ernie is surprised that they knew it was him. Alpha 5 enters the Youth Center. Trini spots him immediately and points him out to Kimberly, who is stunned. Billy has spotted Alpha 5 as well and quickly walks over to him. On the dance floor, Bride of Frankenstein and Frankenstein are dancing. A crowd has formed a circle around them that includes Kimberly and her friends. Frankenstein tries to walk away, but Bride of Frankenstein yanks him back. They dance for a little bit, but then Bride of Frankenstein accidentally steps on his feet. Frankenstein becomes very angry, grabs her, and holds her up into the air. Bride of Frankenstein starts screaming as Frankenstein tosses her into the crowd. Bulk catches her. Zack, Billy, and Trini are puzzled by Frankenstein's behavior. Bulk tells Skull to get him. Skull uses his dart gun and the dart lands in the middle of Frankenstein's forehead. Frankenstein becomes more angry as he yanks the dart off. Skull laughs. Frankenstein angrily starts to walk over to Bulk and Skull. The Bride of Frankenstein runs away. Bulk tells Skull to give him that and tries to use the dart gun. Frankenstein picks up Skull and holds him up in the air. Skull tells him it's just a joke man. After growling at him a little bit, Frankenstein tosses Skull aside. Bulk catches him. Skull tells him some people just can't take a joke. Frankenstein tries to take a swipe at them, but Bulk and Skull duck out of the way. Jason and Zack become concern as Bulk and Skull race out of the Youth Center and Frankenstein goes after them. After awhile, the Youth Center starts to shake. The kids at the party start to panic and race out the door. Ernie tries to get the teens to settle down. It's just a small earthquake, just a tremor. Billy enters the Youth Center and races over to his friends. Billy tells them we've got a major crisis situation. Kimberly replies no kidding, we just had an earthquake. Billy tells them it's Rita and that Frankenstein monster is one of her goons. Kimberly is stunned. Jason tells his friends that they need Zordon to explain some of this, they also need to find Tommy and teleport to the Command Center. Zack tells them Tommy hasn't shown up yet. Trini, Billy, and Jason look around the Youth Center. Jason makes the decision we have to go without him. Trini agrees. Trini, Billy, Jason, Zack, and Kimberly race out of the Youth Center. Kimberly, Trini, Billy, Jason, and Zack teleport into the Command Center. Jason asks Zordon what is going on? Zordon informs the teens that Rita plans to use the Frankenstein monster to destroy them, then conquer the Earth with an army of Super Putties she created. Trini asks Super Putties? Zordon replies yes, a new form of Putty that is nearly indestructible. Zack is blown away by the idea of indestructible Putties. Kimberly suggests they try and contact Tommy. Jason tries to reach Tommy over his communicator, but gets no response. Alpha 5 tells them he's not online. Alpha 5 goes over to the control panels, trying to locate Tommy's signal. Meanwhile, Tommy is about to enter the Youth Center, when several Putties arrive. Tommy doesn't need these party crashers. Tommy fights the Putties, using his gym bag to help him. One of the Putties grabs the gym bag away from Tommy. Tommy continues to fight the Putties. Back at the Command Center, Zordon tells the teens there's not a moment to spare.
