The teens and Dr. K are in the Ranger room. The teens are sitting and Dr. K is up front, facing them. Dr. K: As promised, I will now open the floor to any and all questions regarding the Rangers' bio series suits, vehicles, and hardware. The teens just stared. Dr. K: Anyone? Still no reaction. Dr. K: Speak now or forever hold your peace. Everyone but Dillon raised their hands. The questions began. The screens would demonstrate the answer to the questions. Dr. K became defensive with the questions. Scott was standing when he asked his question. Scott: What do you mean "what eyes"? Right there, on the front of our zords. Dr. K: They are not eyes. They are optical field scanning sensors for your cockpits A2D display. Ziggy wanted to know about the explosions that always went off behind them. Flynn wanted to know why they had to shout RPM, Get in Gear. That was a safety and security phrase. Flynn thought they could use a better phrase and Ziggy backed him. But Dr. K didn't like any of his suggestions. Dr. K also told him justice was a concept for comic books. This brought back memories for Flynn.
Flynn remembered when he was a young school boy. Flynn had been quite taken with comic books, especially the Rebel Justice Unleashed. On the school grounds, a school boy had taken another student's lunch. The school boy held it up high and the young girl could not reach it. The young girl kept asking the school boy to give her back her lunch. Flynn stepped in and told the boy he needed to give the lunch, after all the girl had said the magic word, please. Flynn got beat up for his efforts. The kids laugh at him. Flynn smiled at the young girl, thinking she was going to thank him. Instead the young girl dumped her lunch on him.
Things did not get easier when young Flynn returned home. His dad was not happy about Flynn getting two weeks suspension. Flynn's dad told him no good deed went unpunished. Flynn's dad wanted to know what he was going to do with his life - run around in tights. Flynn was dejected.
Flynn was brought back to the present by the sound of the alarms. Dr. K was informing them there had been a breach in the city's shields. Dillon, Scott, Summer, and Ziggy were already taking off. Flynn soon follows them out.
Generals Shifter and Crunch are in the city, battling the security guards. Tenaya 7 walks up, along with an attack bot. Tenaya 7 wants the generals to finish up the job before the Rangers show up. That doesn't happen. The teens arrive. The teens battle the Grinders, Generals Shifter and Crunch, and Tenaya 7. Eventually the teens morph, and the Rangers continue their battle. Meanwhile, the attack bot goes giant size. Tenaya 7 laughs at the Rangers and tells them they are too late.
The Rangers continued their battle against Generals Crunch and Shifter. They are also kept busy battling the numerous Grinders and Tenaya 7. During the battle, Black Ranger uses his invincibility shield to protect Blue Ranger. Afterwards Black Ranger is low on energy. Blue Ranger activates his time manipulation, but something goes wrong. Blue Ranger can't move and it is apparent that Blue Ranger is in trouble. Dr. K is aware of the glitch as well, and the rest of the Rangers confirm it. Black Ranger, Red Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Green Ranger circle around Blue Ranger to protect him. Unable to move, Blue Ranger thinks about his past. Flynn had graduated and gone to see his dad. Flynn's dad wanted to know what he was going to do. Flynn wanted to help people. Flynn started out as a policeman, but was dismissed when he arrested the mayor's son, despite warnings not to. Flynn then became a fireman. Flynn was dismissed once more for water damage. Then Flynn tried a peace corps like operation. The operation decided to bail out on the natives they were there to help. Flynn became furious and lead the natives into battle. Flynn was dismissed once more. When Flynn return, he told his dad he was right. No good deed goes unpunished. The building begins to shake. The Venjix army is striking. Back at the present, the four Rangers continued to battle the Grinders and protect Blue Ranger. This gives Tenaya 7, and the Generals Shifter and Crunch a perfect opportunity to get away. The Grinders are destroyed. Summer, Scott, and Flynn return to base. Flynn is in the Ranger room with Dr. K. Dr. K has figured out what has happened to Flynn's suit, but has no idea on how to fix it. Dr. K takes Flynn offline. Flynn doesn't know what he is suppose to do. Dr. K tells him to do nothing and asks him if he can handle that. Flynn remembers his ride into Corinth City on a bus with his dad. They had gotten off the bus. There was a woman asking for someone to go back. There were more people that had not been rescued. But no one did anything. Flynn returns to the present as Summer enters the room. Summer is holding a disc and she asks if they want the good news or the bad news first. Flynn wants the good news, while Dr. K wants the bad news. Scott enters the room as well. Summer inserts the disc and it shows a diagram of the city and the attack bot. Apparently the attack bot is attempting to drive a spike into the city, where there is a fault line, causing a volcano eruption. Dr. K contacts Green Ranger and Black Ranger and warns them the attack bot is in their area. The two Rangers quickly confirm this as they spot the giant attack bot.
Dr. K instructs the two Rangers that they need to stop the attack bot from drilling. Flynn is going nuts not being able to help. Green Ranger and Black Ranger form the ValveMax Megazord and battle the attack bot. They are having a difficult time. Dr. K sends Yellow Ranger and Red Ranger to help. Flynn wants to go as well, they can't form the Megazord without him. Dr. K tells him he can't. Flynn remembers the day he arrived at Corinth City. Back to when a mom was asking for help, and everyone ignore her. Flynn apologized to his dad and took off for the bus. Mr. McAllistair tried to stop him. Flynn told his dad it was just who he was. Flynn took the bus back out. Flynn soon located the people and they clambered onto the bus. The dust was thick and Flynn peered out to see if there was anyone else. Flynn spotted Grinders heading his way. Flynn was about to take off when he heard the cries of a small child. Flynn left the bus and managed to get Penny safely onto the bus. Snapping a Grinder in half along the way. Flynn took off and got everyone on the bus safely into Corinth City. The mom was very grateful to have her daughter back. Flynn basked in the thanks and hugs. Mr. McAllister walked up. Flynn expected his father to be angry with him, instead his dad was proud. Mr. McAllister had been telling his son that heroes don't exist and the whole time he had been looking at one. Flynn returns to the present. Things are not going well for the Rangers. Black Ranger and Green Ranger are having a difficult time as they battle the attack bot. Red Ranger and Yellow Ranger arrive, but they are unable to help. Tenaya 7 and several Grinders have arrived as well. Yellow Ranger and Red Ranger are kept busy battling the Grinders. Dr. K tells Flynn she knows this must be difficult for him, but doesn't hear a response. Dr. K whirls around in her chair and realizes that Flynn is gone.
Yellow Ranger and Red Ranger are being tossed around by the Grinders. Tenaya 7 is enjoying seeing the two Rangers being defeated. Dr. K contacts Flynn and tells him that he cannot activate his suit, she hasn't clear the reverse charge yet. Flynn is running and tells Flynn that he has an idea. Flynn arrives and Tenaya 7 is not happy to see him. Flynn battles the Grinders with relish as he continues to talk to Dr. K. Flynn believes if he reverses his morph, he can clear up the suit. Flynn races over and makes sure Yellow Ranger and Red Ranger are okay. With his back towards Tenaya 7 and the Grinders, Flynn morphs. A huge explosion occurs behind Blue Ranger that knocks Tenaya 7 and the Grinders off their feet. Blue Ranger's plan work. Dr. K is flabbergasted that Blue Ranger came up with a solution before her. Blue Ranger then leaps in and battles and destroys the Grinders. The zords are download and the High Octane Megazord is formed. The two Megazords battle the attack bot. The Rangers destroy the attack bot. After the battle, Flynn goes to see his dad, carrying a bag of groceries. His dad is asleep with a photo album on top of him. Flynn places the groceries down and picks up the photo album. It has pages and pages of clippings of the Blue Ranger. Flynn is very touch by his father's pride in him.
