Covered in protective gear Dex and several Edenites, including his father, are digging in the poisoned ground. Heavily guarded, Dex notices the Plague Sentry approach and it makes Dex angry. He tells his father, I'll like to pull his horns off! The Plague Sentry laughs as he notices the Edenites working hard as they dig. He calls them fools and notes the poisonous gases they dig up only hasten the destruction of their planet. Dex's father quietly tells Dex, you'll get your chance some day. The Plague Sentry notes, Dregon will be pleased.
Alpha 5 is sitting down and feeling very sad. Zordon asks him, what is troubling you so? How can I be of any help if you don't tell me what the problem is. Alpha 5 replies, I feel no one can help. Zordon tells him there is only one way to find out. Please tell me Alpha what has happened. Alpha 5 slowly gets up and faces Zordon as he concludes, I suppose you're right. You see I was monitoring the galactic scanner when I pick up a distress signal from the planet Edenoi. Zordon states, your home planet. No wonder it disturbs you Alpha. I'm well aware of your memory banks containing many fond memories of Edenoi. Alpha 5 tells him, there's more. I was assembled on Edenoi by their leader, Lexian. But my scan picked up no trace of him. And the planet appears to be under heavy attack. Zordon notes Edenoi is very far away. For now all we can do is to continue to monitor and hope for more information. Alpha 5 feels something is terribly wrong.
A space ship, the Spiderbase, continues to monitor the planet Edenoi. On the base, Fact announces the presence of Count Dregon on the bridge. Count Dregon asks Doubleface and Cyclopter, what do you have to report? Doubleface steps forward and reports that the attack is presiding as expected, according to the plan Count Dregon. Gork quickly steps forward and adds, your brilliant plan. Doubleface asks, what of the planet your highness? Count Dregon responds, destroy it.
At the Youth Center, Aisha gives Kimberly a call to check on her sick friend. Aisha asks Kimberly, how are you doing today?
Lying in bed and propped up by pillows, Kimberly replies awful. She pulls out the thermometer in her mouth and checks it.
Aisha waits patiently.
Frustrated, Kimberly tells Aisha, I still have a temperature. I hate having the flu.
Aisha tells her, just rest and drink plenty of liquids. You know the drill. I'll check with you later.
