Inside Venjix's palace, Tenaya 7 is sabotaging an attack bot. Tenaya 7 hears voices and hides. General Shifter and Kilobyte walked in. General Shifter: The programming is perfect this time. Kilobyte: Then you'll be fine. General Shifter walked up to Venjix. General Shifter: Venjix, once downloaded, you can fight beside us in this new body. Venjix: But can it handle my power: General Shifter: This is Generation 16 technology. It cannot fail. Tenaya 7 comes out of her hiding place. Tenaya 7: Talk, talk, talk. Tenaya 7 wants General Shifter to demonstrate his Hyper Bot. General Shifter turns the attack bot on and it fires at Venjix. Kilobyte leaps in and tackles Hyper Bot and knocks it to the floor. General Shifter protests that he doesn't understand what happen. General Shifter sees Tenaya 7 grinning and blames her. Tenaya 7 tells Venjix that one of the problems with Generation 5 is they are always trying to shift blame. Venjix is furious and orders General Shifter to be banished to the waste land. General Shifter protests, he will rust. Kilobyte points out that is another fault of a Generation 5, and tells him to avoid the salt mines. General Shifter becomes angry and a couple of Grinders grab him. General Shifter gets himself under control and walks out, dragging his Hyper Bot behind him. Tenaya 7 informs Venjix that her attack bot, Heat Bot, is ready. Tenaya 7 vows she will do better. Tenaya 7 walks out with her attack bot. Kilobyte adds that they will be watching.
Inside Corinth, the Mayor and Colonel Truman are making a presentation about energy and the future of Corinth. Everyone is there, including Flynn, Scott, Ziggy, Gem, Gemma, Summer, and Dillon. Dillon is bored about the whole thing until he watches Colonel Truman and the Mayor put their two pieces of a giant key together. Dillon takes out his keys and places one inside the other. Dillon can't believe putting the key together was so simple. The Mayor and Colonel Truman open the doors to present the new energy system of Corinth, when there is an explosion. The citizens begin running. Scott, Ziggy, Gem, Gemma, Summer, Dillon, and Flynn race forward and then morph. Heat Bot has several Grinders with him. The Rangers battle the Grinders. Yellow Ranger yells at Black Ranger, Red Ranger, Green Ranger, and Blue Ranger to go after Heat Bot, they will take care of the Grinders. The four Rangers chase after and battle Heat Bot.

General Shifter is looking at all his equipment as he rants to Hyper Bot. General Shifter tells Hyper Bot that Venjix could have rule the world, but now he will.
Inside the Ranger room, Dr. K is looking up information on Heat Bot. Flynn and Scott are with her. It would be a catastrophe if Heat Bot gets near the fuel energy again. Dillon is in his room. Dillon puts the two keys together once more. The key can now turn the pocket watch. It plays the same tune that Tenaya 7 whistles. Dillon is stunned. Ziggy walks up to Dillon's room, but Dillon walks past him, down the stairs, and takes off in his car. Watched by Ziggy and Summer. Back at Venjix's palace, a Grinder is repairing the damage on Tenaya 7. General Crunch is with her. General Crunch thinks he can fix her, and Tenaya 7 slaps him away. The screen pops up and General Crunch takes a look. General Crunch tells Tenaya 7 that someone has left Corinth. Tenaya 7 gets up and takes a look, recognizing Dillon's car. Tenaya 7 tells General Crunch that she will take care of this personally. Dillon drives out into the waste land. Dillon sits on the hood of his car and waits, playing the tune on his pocket watch that Tenaya 7 whistles. Soon Tenaya 7 walks up and tells Dillon he is playing her favorite tune, actually the only tune she knows. Dillon takes out his key and asks Tenaya 7 if she recognizes this and the pocket watch plays a different tune. As the tune plays, Tenaya 7 is suddenly filled with memories of her as a little girl receiving a key, along with a young boy, who gets the pocket watch. Tenaya 7 is very confused. Dillon tells her that he doesn't remember much, but he believes they are both hybrids. Tenaya 7 insists she is robotic. Dillon tells Tenaya 7 that she is his sister. Tenaya 7 is confused and angry. Tenaya 7 fires at Dillon. Dillon leaps into the air and morphs. Black Ranger and Tenaya 7 battle. Black Ranger does not want to fight Tenaya 7 anymore. Black Ranger gives a strong hit and Tenaya 7 hits the ground. Black Ranger demorphs. Tenaya 7 is in pain and stunned when she takes a look at her arm and sees that it is bleeding. Tenaya 7 gets up and takes off. Dillon yells at her to wait, but Tenaya 7 doesn't. Dillon returns to the garage and just sits in his car. Summer walks over and tells him she would help him, if he would talk to her. Dillon only wishes that Summer could help, but she can't. Back at Venjix's palace, Tenaya 7 decides to do her own investigation. Tenaya 7 turns on some equipment and has her human arm scanned. The computer screen reveals that her DNA marks her as a subject as well, along with another subject, D44, that had similar DNA as she did. The screens shows Dillon and Tenaya walking in hospital gowns, trying to get away. Tenaya 7 remembers how they were stopped by Kilobyte and several Grinders. Tenaya had been frighten as Dillon fought the Grinders. Tenaya remembers being grabbed by several Grinders, and Dillon being captured by the Grinders as well. Tenaya 7 is brought back to the present by Kilobyte, who now knows that Tenaya 7 knows the truth. Kilobyte tells her that he is going to miss her. Tenaya 7 doesn't know what he means. Kilobyte tells her that every time she sees her brother, more memories will come back and she will soon be human and then destroyed. Tenaya 7 insists that she has come to far with Venjix to turn human. Tenaya 7 decides that she needs to destroy the source of her memories. Heat Bot is sent back into the city and Heat Bot begins his attack. Five of the Rangers arrive and battle Heat Bot, trying to stop him. The five Rangers are soon knocked to the ground. Gold Ranger and Silver Ranger arrive. They use their weapons and manage to freeze Heat Bot. Kilobyte and Venjix had been watching the battle on their screen. Kilobyte comments on Tenaya 7's old fashion ways. Venjix is not pleased. Kilobyte tells him not worry, he will clean up the mess like always. The Rangers have gathered together, pleased with the outcome of the battle, when suddenly they are knocked off their feet. This time by Tenaya 7. Tenaya 7 walks towards them and tells the Rangers she wants the hybrid.
Tenaya 7 summons several Grinders. All the Rangers, except Black Ranger, battle the Grinders. Tenaya 7 and Black Ranger battle each other.

As Red Ranger battles the Grinders, he sees that Black Ranger is in trouble. Tenaya 7 hits Black Ranger hard enough that Black Ranger demorphs. Tenaya 7 is ready to blast Dillon. Red Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Yellow Ranger form the Road Blaster. Dillon sees them and quickly gets up to protect Tenaya 7 from the blast. The force knocks Tenaya 7 off her feet and off the top of the building. Tenaya 7 grabs onto the wiring of the building. Dillon leans over and holds out his hand and tells Tenaya 7 to grab his hand. Tenaya 7 doesn't and Dillon adds please the next time. More memories come back to Tenaya 7 as she remembers how Dillon had fought to protect her. Tenaya 7 being tossed into the pit and how Dillon had leaned in and offered his hand. Tenaya 7 had grabbed his hand, but couldn't hold on and slipped into the pit.

Kilobyte returns to Venjix's palace. Venjix is very angry. Venjix wants Kilobyte and Tenaya 7 to destroy General Shifter. Kilobyte tells Venjix that might be a problem, as Tenaya 7 has discovered her human side. Venjix comments that is most unfortunate. Kilobyte suggests they get rid of the source of the problem - subject D44. Meanwhile, Dillon and his friends return to the garage. They had been searching for Tenaya. Dillon walks up to the map and Dr. K shows him what areas they have searched. Dillon begins telling the group what parts of the city they will be searching next. Flynn brings up that Tenaya is a clever girl, she could be hiding anywhere, if she is still in the city. Dillon thinks his friends do not want to help him and starts to head back to his car. Scott stops him. Scott tells Dillon they will continue to help him search for Tenaya. Gem, Gemma, Flynn, Summer, and Ziggy nod their heads in agreement. Dr. K returns to the Ranger room. The team heads out to their vehicles when Dillon stops. Tenaya is standing in the doorway. Scott, Summer, Flynn, Ziggy, Gem, and Gemma are not sure about Tenaya as they watch her and Dillon talk.
