Several children are splashing around at Angel Grove lake.  Rocky is working as a volunteer lifeguard.  Rocky warns them the lake gets really deep, so not to wander off and they will be fine.  Rocky walks pass Dougie and a friend.  Dougie's friend wants to go into the lake and doesn't understand why Dougie doesn't want to, since he is the best swimmer out of their group.  Dougie is convinced there are monsters in the lake.  Dougie's friend tells him they don't have to worry.  The Power Rangers protect Angel Grove.  Dougie is not placing his faith in the Power Rangers and walks away.  His friends follows him. The two kids walk past Bulk and Skull who are sitting on an inter tube on the beach.  Listening to the kids' talk just gave Bulk a brilliant idea.  Skull loves brilliant ideas and tells Bulk he wants to hear it.  Bulk tells him the Power Rangers are suppose to protect all of Angel Grove, right.  Skull nods his head yes.  Bulk tells him so here is what we do.  Bulk leans in so only Skull can hear what he has to say.  Dougie has stopped by Rocky.  Rocky kneels down and asks Dougie if he is sure he doesn't want to go in the water?  Rocky reassures him that he will look out for him.  Dougie refuses to let the monsters get him.  Rocky tells him he has never seen a monster out here.  This doesn't convince Dougie and he tells Rocky he just doesn't want to go into the lake.  Dougie walks away.

At his palace, Lord Zedd has heard Rocky's conversation with Dougie.  Lord Zedd has decided since Rocky has never encounter any underwater monsters, he would remedy the situation.  Lord Zedd starts laughing and then states the tide is about to turn.  Goldar is with Lord Zedd and asks him what tide?  Impatiently, Lord Zedd explains it was just a metaphor for his latest scheme.  Goldar asks him if the scheme is an attack against the Power Rangers?  Lord Zedd tells him yes.  Lord Zedd plans to bring back all the best of his underwater monsters.  Lord Zedd is confident the Power Rangers cannot defeat them all at the same time.

Rocky is patrolling the beach when Billy and Aisha came running up to him.  Billy asks Rocky how the volunteer life guarding is going?  Rocky tells him great, but he is worried about Dougie.  Billy and Rocky glance back at Dougie who is sitting on the beach and far from the water.  Rocky tells them Dougie won't go in the water.  Aisha asks why?  Rocky tells them Dougie has got this thing about monsters in the lake.  Billy comments that he knows just how Dougie feels.  There was a time when he wouldn't go swimming himself.  Rocky asks them where are the others?  Aisha answers that Adam, Kimberly, and Tommy went scuba diving.  They plan to come to the beach for lunch.

Elsewhere, Kimberly, Tommy, and Adam are scuba diving and enjoying it.

At the lake, the kids in the water start screaming as two sharks fins appear in the water.  Rocky, Billy, and Aisha are alerted as they spot the shark fins as well.  Billy and Rocky race over to a wave runner.  Dougie stands up in alarm.  Rocky and Billy hop onto the wave runner and take off.
