Teleplay by: David Garber
Directed by: Charlie Haskell
The Rangers are restless and Jack starts talking. Bridge notices something on the screen and tries to get Jack's attention. Bridge is joined by Syd and then Sky - Jack is still talking - and they hollered at him to come take a look. Jack and Z join the group and see a UFO arriving in Newtech City. The Rangers morphed and entered their delta runners. The Rangers form their zord and entered the city to find that the UFO has crashed. They put out the fire and leave the zord. A lone figure emerges from the UFO and he removes his helmet. Sky recognizes his old friend Dru Harrington and enthusiastically greets him. Sky takes Dru back to SPD with the rest of the Rangers. Dru tells them what has happen to him - he was following a monster - and only Jack is not quite trusting of Sky's friend. Later, Sky, Jack, and Dru get together for target practice. Jack does well but Dru does exceptional. After target practice, Jack is sitting alone when a shadow startles him. Jack is surprised to see Dru and questions him. Dru tells him he is looking for Commander Cruger and Jack finds it odd that Dru would look for Cruger at 4 in the morning. Sky walks in, he takes Dru's side. Jack orders Sky to take Dru to his quarters and he does. Sky and Dru talk as they walk back to his quarters. Sky asks a few questions of his own but all Dru will tell him is that he is on a top secret mission.
The following morning Sky, Syd, and Z listen as Bridge tells them about his dream and asks them what it means. Jack walks up and tells Sky that he has thought about it and he wants to apologize. Sky does not want to accept his apology and tells Jack he knows nothing about friendship or the SPD and to leave him and Dru alone. Kat notifies that Rangers that there is a security breach and there is a monster in the engine room. The Rangers morph and take on the monster, but it proves difficult and the monster is soon gone. Jack thinks he knows where the monster has gone and leaves. Demorph, Sky walks silently towards Dru's room. Jack leaves Dru's room and tells him that Dru is not there. Jack tells Sky not to let friendship blind him to his friend. An announcement is made that Commander Cruger is arriving and the Rangers await his arrival. Commander Cruger walks with the Rangers and he already knows of the breach in security. Sky takes full responsibly. Commander Cruger is fired at and lands on the floor, barely breathing. Sky spots the monster and goes after him. The monster reveals himself to be Dru - the monster form being his true form. Sky is confused and asks him why. Dru tells Sky of working with Broodwing and of power and money. Dru starts to leave and Sky tells him he has to take him in. Dru fires at Sky and Sky flies through the air and lands on the ground. Dru tells Sky that next time only one of them will be standing before walking away. The Rangers are gathered around Commander Cruger. Kat tells them that Cruger is tough old dog to which Commander Cruger responses who are you calling old dog. The Rangers are relieved that Commander Cruger is okay. The alarm goes off and it's Dru again. Bridge, Syd, and Z leave. Sky asks Jack if he can take Dru on his own and Jack tells him it's against regulations, but that he can give Sky a ten minute head start, which Sky takes. Sky encounters Dru in a projector room and they face off each other. Dru reverts to his true form while Sky morphs into the Blue Ranger. Sky takes down Dru - much to Dru's surprise. Dru grows larger as the rest of the Rangers enter. The Rangers use their zords to battle Dru and eventually defeat him. Dru goes back to human form and Sky arrests him. The following day Jack finds Sky scrubbing the cement entrance to SPD with a toothbrush. Commander Cruger's latest punishment for Sky. Jack offers to help Sky and does so. Sky starts laughing and Jack wants to know what is so funny. Sky tells Jack that he has been using Jack's toothbrush.
