Summer, Flynn, Dillon, Scott, Ziggy, Gem, Gemma, Colonel Truman, and Corporal Hicks were standing in line, facing Dr. K, in the Ranger room.  Dr. K:  It is my conclusion that Venjix is alternating it's strategy for destroying our city.  Dr. K walk over to a screen.  Dr. K:  If my analysis is correct, Venjix now intends to launch a single, crushing and unstoppable aerial attack, lead by this...(the screen showed the Doomsday Bot), a massive armor aerial attack vehicle.  Ziggy:  Right, well that obviously is the bad news, now for the good news.  Dr. K:  This aerial attack bot is equipped with two hundred millimeters laser cannons, dual landing strips for landing and refueling drones, and this frequency scrambling dish I'm calling the shield buster.  Ziggy:  Just haven't gone to the good news part yet, clearly.  Colonel Truman:  Dr. K, now long before this new threat can be launched?  Dr. K:  Within 41 hours.  The team was stunned.  Gem & Gemma were very eager to go "boom" time and blow up the factory.  Summer reminded everyone that Dillon's sister could still be there.  Colonel Truman told the group that they need to rescue the prisoners, and then blow up the factory.  Ziggy thought this was good news.  Dr. K pointed out that even if the Rangers destroyed Doomsday Bot, Venjix would come out with something stronger, and they didn't have any fire power to match it.  Dr. K then asked Ziggy if he has any good news to add to that, which Ziggy doesn't.

Inside Venjix's palace, Venjix is revealing his latest attack bot, Saw Bot Generation 16 to Generals Shifter and Crunch.  Tenaya 7 walks in and she is not impressed, as the screen shows Saw Bot Generation 15 being destroyed by the Rangers.  Venjix is very confident in his attack bot as all that Saw Generation 15 has learned has been applied to Saw Bot Generation 16.  Tenaya 7 becomes very excited when the screen shows human forces gathered around a factory.  Venjix is not worried, as he knows the humans are too late to stop him.  Venjix has the generals prepare for his assault vehicle and then sends out Saw Bot.

Summer and Flynn are sent ahead and spy on the factory.  Everything is quiet.  Summer and Flynn run back to where the rest of the team and Colonel Truman's team is waiting.  Scott tells the group the most important thing is to destroy the Doomsday Bot before it takes off.  Gem & Gemma are eager to blow up anything.  Dillon is angry and he walks over to them, and reminds them they are to wait until his sister is rescue.  Colonel Truman tells the group they rescue the civilians first, and then blow up the Doomsday Bot and the building for good.  Dr. K is being kept inform by the radio signal.

Dr. K asks the group a very difficult question.  What if they don't get in time to the Doomsday Bot?  Do they protect the humans inside the factory or the only remaining human city?

No one has an answer for her, except Flynn.  Flynn steps forwards and tells the group he is not a complicated man.  Flynn knows one thing - good vs. evil, us vs. them.  Put the bad guy in front of him, and Flynn knows what to do.  Saw Bot then appears.  Ziggy recognizes him.  The security guards immediately begin firing at Saw Bot, but it has no effect.  Scott tells his dad to pull back the troops, they are going in.  The security guards retreat as the five teens race forward and morph.  The five Rangers battle Saw Bot.

Several Grinders arrive.  Gem & Gemma battled the Grinders.  Corporal Hicks and Colonel Truman fired at the Grinders.  The five Rangers continue with their difficult battle against Saw Bot.  Dr. K contacts Gem & Gemma and tells them to place the explosives on Saw Bot.  Gem & Gemma leap into battle and place the device on Saw Bot.  Gem & Gemma back away as several Grinders surround Saw Bot.  Gem activates the switch and Saw Bot and the Grinders are blown up.  The five Rangers defeat the remaining Grinders.  Gem & Gemma run back towards their friends.  Dr. K cautions the group that Saw Bot will be back, and Venjix is very aware of their presence.  Colonel Truman tells the group the time is now - rescue the civilians and then blow the factory up.  The team takes off for the factory.  There are more Grinders guarding the factory.  The five Rangers and Gem & Gemma battle and defeat them.  They all gathered together.  Red Ranger tells Green Ranger and Blue Ranger to evacuate the civilians and they take off.  Red Ranger is about to give Gem & Gemma their orders, but they tell him they have their own orders from Dr. K, and take off.  It's up to Red Ranger, Black Ranger, and Yellow Ranger to set up the explosive devices.  Although Black Ranger had wanted to search for his sister instead.  Black Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Red Ranger enter the factory.  There are more Grinders inside and Saw Bot is there as well.  The three Rangers battle Saw Bot and the Grinders.  Elsewhere in the factory, Gem & Gemma have made their way to the control panel and begin uploading the program Dr. K had instructed them to do.  At Venjix's palace, Tenaya 7 informs Venjix that someone is messing around with the programming of Doomsday Bot.  Venjix is angry and ready to stop the humans.  Back at the factory, Yellow Ranger and Black Ranger battle Saw Bot and keep him away from Red Ranger, as Red Ranger plants the devices.  Black Ranger is hit hard and lands on the floor and demorphs.  Yellow Ranger has had enough and uses her energy blast against Saw Bot.  Yellow Ranger demorphs as well and races over to Dillon's side.  Dillon is okay, but they both hear the sounds of the Doomsday Bot about to take off.  Summer gives Dillon the switch and tells him it is up to him to decide what to do.  Summer races towards Saw Bot and battles it once more.  Dillon has no idea what to do.

Red Ranger is needed outside the factory and he takes off.  Dillon is very conflicted, but makes the decision to press the button.  Dr. K stops him before he does.  Dr. K tells him they have to wait for the Doomsday Bot to clear the factory before pressing the button.  Elsewhere, Flynn and Ziggy have rescue all the prisoners and are directing them towards trucks that will take them back to Corinth.  Inside Summer tells Dillon they have run out of time.  Dillon presses the button, tosses the device.  Summer and Dillon run away from the factory.  The factory explodes behind them.  Scott is helping guide the prisoners onto the waiting trucks.  Dillon and Summer catch up to the prisoners.  The back of a dark haired girl catches Dillon's attention, but when she turns around, Dillon doesn't recognize her as his sister.  Dillon thinks his sister is still back at the factory.  Flynn tells him they check every place, no one was left behind.  Dillon takes off towards the factory and Summer chases after him.  Scott contacts Gem & Gemma and tells them they need to stop Dillon from entering the factory.  Gem & Gemma would love to, but they have their own problems.  Gem & Gemma are battling Saw Bot.  Eventually they morph.  Gold Ranger and Silver Ranger continue to battle Saw Bot until he is defeated.  Venjix is in his flying machine and knows what has happened.  Venjix instructs Tenaya 7 to prepare the download, which she does.  Saw Bot is now giant size.  Saw Bot heads towards Corinth, along with Venjix and numerous drones. The attack on the city begins.  Colonel Truman and Corporal Hicks make it inside.  Colonel Truman contacts Dr. K, telling her the situation.  Dr. K is frantically working on her plan.  Dr. K's programming works and Doomsday Bot is changed into another zord for the Rangers.  Dr. K contacts Ziggy, Scott, Flynn, Gem & Gemma to let them know.  Ziggy gives Dr. K a hard time about a flying whale, but backs off when Dr. K asks him if he would rather it be back to a doomsday machine.    Ziggy, Scott, Flynn, Gem & Gemma are excited about the Whale zord, but there is still a problem.  Dr. K reminds them that Saw Bot knows all the various Megazord's moves.

Dr. K soon comes up with a new plan and has Gem & Gemma hop into their zords.  Gold Ranger and Silver Ranger combine their zords with the Whale zord to form the Mach Megazord.  The two Rangers battle Saw Bot, and it is confused, as it doesn't recognize any of the Mach Megazord's moves.  Silver Ranger and Gold Ranger destroy Saw Bot.  But there is still another problem.  Scott lets Dr. K know that the factory is on fire and Dillon and Summer are still inside.  Inside the factory, Dillon is still trying to find his sister, with Summer close behind him.  The burning building is falling apart all around them.  One way is block and Dillon tells Summer to get out.  Summer refuses.  Dillon wants to know why she is always trying to save him, and Summer tells him that he is worth saving.  They turn to go another way, and a piece of the burning building falls, blocking another path out.  Summer and Dillon stare at each other, and then start to lean into each other.  Suddenly a large amount of water is dropped on them.  Dr. K had sent the Whale zord to put out the fire.  Dillon and Summer laughed.  Summer and Dillon leaned into each other once more, and then Gem & Gemma run in very excited.  Dillon asks them where his sister's cell was.  It happens to be the place they are standing.  Dillon frantically searches the area, but finds nothing.  Dillon is very frustrated, thinking he has come to another dead end.  Summer picks up a necklace with a small key and holds it up to the group.  Dillon pulls out his necklace and his key matches the other key.  Dillon smiles as he realizes he has found evidence that he really does have a sister.
