Kimberly, Billy, Trini, and Jason enter the Youth Center. They paused at the doorway as they witness Angela give Zack a kiss on the cheek. When Angela walks pass, Kimberly, Trini, Jason, and Billy walk towards their friend, teasing him. Jason asks, so when's the wedding? Zack grins and replies chill guys. It was just a little peck on the cheek. But his friends aren't fooled and Zack can't help but to dance with joy. After awhile, Kimberly tells Jason, Trini, and Billy they have to hurry. I promised to meet Tommy at the mall before it closes. They all head over to where Zack is cleaning up his magician table. Jason asks Zack if he is coming? Zack replies, no. I'm going to hang out here and make sure Angela...I mean the kids don't need any help. Not one of his friends believe him. Kimberly asks, who is that rad guy Angela is talking to? Zack quickly looks over. Angela is talking to one of the young boys. Kimberly teases Zack. Busted! Jason tells Zack not to do anything he wouldn't do. Kimberly, Billy, Trini, and Jason head out. Kimberly, Trini, Billy, and Jason are walking through the park and talking about Zack. Kimberly asks them, did you see the look on Zack's face when Angela kissed him? Jason replies, he was putty in her hands. Suddenly several Putties leap towards them. Jason tells them to spread out and they do so. Billy fights a group of Putties. Trini fights another group of Putties. She kicks one so far, it goes flying and hits a tree. Trini shouts, take that clay face! Jason fights a group of Putties. Kimberly is battling another batch of Putties. Jason shouts, hang it there guys! We almost got them beat! The battle continues. Jason fights a batch of Putties. Billy fights another group of Putties. Trini is fighting yet another group of Putties. Suddenly the Putties vanish. Kimberly, Billy, Jason, and Trini gather together. Jason's communicator goes off. Zordon informs them, Rita is up to her old tricks again Rangers. You must act quickly to save Angel Grove. Teleport here at once and I'll explain. Jason replies right and tells his friends, let's go and they teleport out of the park. Kimberly, Billy, Jason, and Trini arrive at the Command Center. Alpha 5 immediately tells them, you won't believe what Rita has been up to! Zordon instructs them to behold the viewing globe. The viewing globe shows images of Peckster. Zordon informs them that Rita has sent down the dreaded Peckster, who's mission is destroy every home and building in Angel Grove city. Billy notices the abundance of feathers on Peckster. Zordon tells them the Peckster's powerful wings can cause wind storms, adding yet another evil dimension to it's fighting arsenal. Jason states, man, that's just what we need. A wacko woodpecker full of hot air. Kimberly is ready to go. Trini asks, where's Zack? Zordon tells them, Zack will join you later. Right now he's needed at the Youth Center with the children. Kimberly asks about Tommy. Zordon replies, remember Kimberly, he must conserve his powers. I will contact him if you need him. Kimberly, Billy, Jason, and Trini morph and teleport out. Pink Ranger, Blue Ranger, Red Ranger, and Yellow Ranger arrive in the city and immediately spot Peckster flying above them. Peckster makes his way towards the four Rangers, as they charge towards him. As Peckster flies by them, he knocks each Ranger off their feet with his wings. The four Rangers gather together and face down Peckster. Peckster taunts them, oh no Rangers! You better look before you leap! The four Rangers glance down and are very surprised to see Putties. The Putties quickly surround the four Rangers. Peckster tells them, you're making this too easy! Pink Ranger, Red Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Blue Ranger battle the Putties. Peckster flies into the battle. Peckster knocks Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger to the ground. Peckster brags, let me show you something. I think you will get a bang out of it! Peckster shoots several red darts from it's mouth, hitting the two Rangers and knocking them off their feet once more. Blue Ranger and Red Ranger leap towards Peckster. Peckster avoids being struck and the Red Ranger and Blue Ranger land on the ground. Peckster uses his powerful wings and creates a wind storm. Red Ranger and Blue Ranger struggle against the wind. Eventually they are lifted up into the air. Peckster shoots more darts at them and they are hit several times. Red Ranger and Blue Ranger crash onto the ground. Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger hurry over. Yellow Ranger asks if they are alright? Red Ranger replies, yeah, so far. Peckster tells them, not for long. Peckster charges towards the four Rangers. Peckster fights the four Rangers and does well against them. Suddenly Black Ranger leaps into battle and kicks Peckster hard, sending him flying. The rest of the Rangers gathered around Black Ranger. Blue Ranger notices Black Ranger holding a handful of balloons and asks, don't you think this is a bad time for a party? Black Ranger replies, not if this idea works. Black Ranger challenges Peckster. Bet you can't pop these? Peckster is eager to prove Black Ranger wrong. Peckster leaps into the air and towards Black Ranger. Peckster quickly pops all the balloons, except the black one. Peckster's beck is stuck inside the rubber ball, which Black Ranger had disguised as a balloon. Peckster rolls onto the ground, trying to remove the ball. Black Ranger taunts, what's the matter bird breath? Cat got your tongue? Or does the ball got your beak? Red Ranger tells Black Ranger great job. Black Ranger thanks him. It doesn't take much thought to beat a bird brain. Peckster can't remove the ball and charges towards the Rangers. Black Ranger states, I think it's time to make a feather duster out of you. Black Ranger pulls out his Blade Blaster and fires at Peckster. Peckster is hit and knocked to the ground. Peckster grows to giant size. Pink Ranger, Red Ranger, Blue Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Black Ranger summon their zords. Once the zords arrive, the Rangers leap into them quickly and form the Megazord. Peckster leaps towards the Megazord and pecks at it. Megazord steps backwards several feet. Black Ranger shouts, let's get him! Red Ranger calls on the mammoth shield. Peckster charges towards Megazord once more. Red Ranger taunts Peckster, let's see you peck through this! Megazord takes several steps towards Peckster. Peckster attempts to peck Megazord, but is blocked by mammoth shield. Megazord punches Peckster. Peckster goes flying and hits the ground hard. Laughing, Peckster gets back up. Peckster tells them, I haven't even begun to fight. How about a whiff of my toxic tornado you teenage twerps. Peckster flaps his wings. Megazord struggles against the tornado. Peckster shoots several darts at Megazord. Megazord is hit and falls to the ground. Black Ranger tells his friends, come on guys! We can't give up - we're the Power Rangers! It's high time we started using our heads! Black Ranger uses the cranial laser. Peckster charges towards the fallen Megazord but is suddenly hit by the laser. Peckster is knocked to the ground as Megazord gets back up. Red Ranger tells Black Ranger, great work! Okay Rangers, let's finish this bird brain off! Red Ranger calls on the power sword. Peckster gets back up. Megazord strikes Peckster with the power sword and destroys him. After the battle, Kimberly, Billy, Trini, and Jason go to the Youth Center. Jason joins Billy, Kimberly, and Trini sitting at a table. A few moments later, a sharp dressed Zack walks in. Kimberly and Trini tease Zack, with Trini telling Kimberly, hold me back. Jason asks, you got a hot date? Grinning, Zack tells his friends he's taking Angela out for a big night on the town. Billy asks, what's on the itinerary? Zack replies, I thought we would start off with a little candlelight dinner at La Petite Bistro. Kimberly, Billy, Jason, and Trini are impressed. Zack continues, and then maybe a little slow dancing at Cafe DeBlouee. Still giggling, Kimberly comments to Trini, Romeo. Zack concludes, and then who knows, maybe a candlelight party for two. Facing his friends, Zack doesn't see Angela walk in with the group of kids. Angela greets Zack and he turns around, surprised to see the kids with Angela. Angela asks, why are you so dressed up? We're only taking the kids to the cartoon festival. Zack tries to take in the fact that he will not be having a romantic date with Angela. Angela asks him, wait, did you think this was a date? Zack quickly replies, me, no. Trying to help out her friend, Kimberly tells Angela, Zack always dresses like that when he goes to the movies. Perhaps not believing Kimberly or Zack, she tells Zack, you are so good with kids, I just assumed....Zack tells her, no sweat. Angela tells him, we better be going. The kids walk in front of them as they head out. Downfallen, Zack tells his friends later as they head out. Zack asks Angela, what cartoon festival are we going to see? Angela replies, my favorite. A five hour retrospective of Woody the Woodpecker. Kimberly, Billy, Jason, and Trini cringe as Zack smacks his face.

Kimberly is practicing her routine on the balance beam. After she completes it, she spots Tommy and Trini at a table set up for snacks. Kimberly jumps off the balance beam and walks over to her friends. Kimberly is very excited as she tells them, wait till you hear the totally awesome news. Trini asks, what? Kimberly replies, I'm going to be a contestant on the TV show, Trick or Treat. Trini can't believe it. No way, that's great! Trini and Kimberly high five each other. Tommy is happy for Kimberly. Trick or Treat, isn't that like the most popular game show in America? Trini nods her head in agreement. Tommy continues, millions of people will see you on TV. Playing around, Kimberly tells them, I'm going to be a star. Tommy and Trini laugh. Kimberly tells them she could actually win a brand new car. Trini and Tommy are impressed. Kimberly invites them to come see her next Saturday. Trini immediately replies, of course. Count me in. Tommy is bummed. Next Saturday? I have this big inner city karate match I can't miss. Kimberly tells Tommy she understands. Kimberly wonders who her opponent will be. Just then Bulk and Skull walk in and head straight for their group. Bulk and Skull recite a rhyme which reveals that Skull will be Kimberly's opponent. Kimberly can't believe it. No way. Bulk is confident that Skull is going to win. Skull asks Kimberly, are you ready to meet a real winner as he reaches for her hand. Kimberly flips his hand away and Skull lands face down in the bowl of guacamole. Bulk yanks Skull out of the bowl and Skull's face is covered in guacamole. Bulk tells them, forget it dweebs. We got our strategy all worked out. That grand prize car is going to be mine. Skull repeats, yeah, mine! Not too worried, Kimberly replies, trick or treat guys. Saturday arrives and the crew at Trick or Treat get everything set up for another game. The audience is very excited and everyone is dressed in a costume. Kimberly is sitting in the audience with her friends. Jason comments to Zack, it's pretty wild here. Zack agrees. The show starts and the announcer states, okay everyone, it's time to play! The audience shouts trick or treat! The audience applauds and hollers as the excitement builds. The host, Monty, steps in front of the audience, still combing his hair. He tells the audience, good to see you, before going to stand behind a podium. Monty starts the game by welcoming their two contestants. First, the lovely and beautiful princess Kimberly Hart! Kimberly excitedly gets up and goes over to a podium set up for the contestants. The audience cheers and clap. Kimberly's friends hold up signs cheering her on. Monty continues, and secondly, recently escaped from detention, Eugene Skullovitch! Skull quickly gets up and goes to the podium next to Kimberly. Bulk gets up and excitedly claps and cheers for his friend. He looks around and realizes no one else is cheering for Skull and stops. Excited, Skull says hi mom to the camera. Monty explains the rules of the game, all the while flossing his teeth. Each of you takes turns asking me trick questions. If you manage to trick me, you will be awarded pumpkin points. The player with the most pumpkin points at the end of the game wins. And today's fabulous prize is a brand new car. Kimberly jumps up and down and Skull screams in excitement. Monty starts the game. Mr. Skullovitch, you won the coin toss so you get to ask me the first question. Skull is surprised and without thinking replies, I do? The buzzer sounds and Monty gleefully answers, yes you do! Monty laughs as Skull realizes how easily he has been tricked. Monty tells him I got you, no pumpkin points for you. Monty states, and now we move on to Kimberly. Kimberly asks, can you tell me the identities of the Power Rangers? Monty is stumped. Jason and Zack grin as Billy and Trini exchange amused glances. Monty tries to think of an answer. Skull is not happy and he glances over at Kimberly. The announcer states Kimberly gets a pumpkin point. Kimberly is very excited. The audience and Kimberly's friends cheer and applaud. Monty is a bit disgruntled. So big deal. You got me and you got a pumpkin point. Kimberly gives Skull a mocking look and he glares back at her. Monty states, now let's see if you can pick up three more points by playing our Wicked Wheel of Misfortune game. Kimberly walks over to the Wheel of Misfortune. Monty and his assistant strap Kimberly onto the wheel. Kimberly is excited and a bit nervous. The crowd, except Bulk, cheers her on. Monty spins the wheel and Kimberly screams. Kimberly wins three more pumpkin points.
