Blue Ranger and Red Ranger were sparring with their Spin Swords. Mike, Mentor Ji, Emily, and Mia watched them. Eventually the match ended when Red Ranger struck Blue Ranger with his Spin Sword. Blue Ranger: Good match Jayden. I obviously need more practice. Red Ranger: Hey, don't beat yourself up over a lost point. Blue Ranger: Okay, let's go again! Blue Ranger and Red Ranger faced each other again with their Spin Swords drawn. Later, the gap sensor went off. Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers raced out of Shiba House and were soon running through the woods. Blue Ranger and the rest of the Ranger soon found Madimot. Red Ranger: Hold it right there, Nighlok! Red Ranger pulls out his Spin Sword. Red Ranger: We're going to whip you into shape! Madimot swings his whip around. Madimot: You really want to tangle with me. I'm Madimot! The baddest of the bad from the Sanzu. I'm a bad, bad man. Green Ranger: Let's see if you can back up all that talk. Madimot: Hmmm. Having backup is a good idea. Madimot whips the ground. Madimot: Here kitty, kitty! Dirt sprays everywhere as something digs up from beneath the ground. Blue Ranger: It looks like...Red Ranger: The Tiger Zord. Tiger Zord roars. Madimot: Surprised?! When the Earth cracked opened and you sealed Master Xandred in the Netherworld, your Tiger Zord fell in the crevice too. I saved it and made him my pet kitty. Tiger Zord growls. Madimot: Or should I say pet Tiggy? Tiger Zord roars. Madimot laughs. Green Ranger: Your pet?! No way! Blue Ranger: Jayden, we'd got to get it back. Madimot: My spell on him is too powerful. He's mine. Madimot face turns purple as he prepares another mind ray. Red Ranger: Everyone duck! Red Ranger pushes Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger to the ground. Blue Ranger tells Green Ranger to get down. Madimot blasts his spell ray at Green Ranger. Blue Ranger pushes Green Ranger out of the way and is hit. In a great deal of pain, Blue Ranger knees. Blue Ranger at this point has no memory of what he done while under Madimot's spell ray. Green Ranger goes over to Blue Ranger to make sure he is okay. Blue Ranger becomes angry and throws Green Ranger aside. Pink Ranger hurries over to Green Ranger. Green Ranger wonders what that was all about? Red Ranger quickly concludes that blue Ranger is in a trance. Madimot boasts that he has gained a new pet. Madimot gives the order to Blue Ranger to attack. With is Spin Sword drawn, Blue Ranger races over to Pink Ranger and Green Ranger, ready to battle. Green Ranger tries to stop Blue Ranger, but instead ends up clashing swords with him. Pink Ranger joins in the battle and concludes Blue Ranger is under mind control. Blue Ranger strikes Pink Ranger with his Spin Sword. Yellow Ranger yells at Blue Ranger, to stop it! Blue Ranger races over to battle Yellow Ranger and Red Ranger. Red Ranger leaps over Blue Ranger and battles Madimot instead. Eventually Madimot is knocked to the ground. He becomes angry and tells Tiger Zord to chew them up. Tiger Zord blows his breath towards Red Ranger. Red Ranger leaps out of the way. Blue Ranger knocks Yellow Ranger down with his Spin Sword. Blue Ranger launches his Dragon Splash on Pink Ranger, Green Ranger, and Yellow Ranger. The three Rangers are hit and land on the ground demorph. Although still fighting Red Ranger, Madimot is delighted with Blue Ranger knocking out three Rangers and tells him good move. Blue Ranger is about to strike again. Red Ranger screams no! Red Ranger pushes aside Madimot and leaps over to his friends. Red Ranger states, we better blaze a trail out of here. Red Ranger spins the disc on his sword and all four of them vanish. Madimot concludes it's good timing, as he is drying out. Madimot instructs Blue Ranger to go wait with kitty. Blue Ranger replies, as you wish Master. Later, Blue Ranger and Madimot enter the city. Several construction workers run in terror. Madimot tells them, that's right boys. Run in terror from my blue menace. Blue Ranger stands for a moment and growls. Soon Jayden arrives and faced down Blue Ranger and Madimot. Madimot comments, it's about time Red Ranger. Red Ranger pleads with Blue Ranger to please wake up, but nothing happens. Madimot tells him, it's not going to happen Red. make this fight count or I will make Blue turn his sword on himself. Mia, Mike, and Emily race up. They are ready to morph and Mike shouts out, Jayden, we're her to help! Jayden tells them no. I can't put anyone else at risk. Jayden tells Madimot, you want a show. I'll give you the sow of your life, Nighlok. Madimot wishes he had some popcorn. He jumps on top of construction equipment to watch. Madimot gives Blue Ranger the command to attack. Blue Ranger pulls out his Spin Sword. Jayden pulls out his Samuraizer and morphs. Red Ranger pulls out his Spins Sword. Blue Ranger and Red Ranger face each other. Blue Ranger and Red Ranger slowly circle each other. Suddenly the two Rangers race towards each other and start fighting with their Spin Swords. Blue Ranger and Red Ranger fight each other with their Spin Swords. The battle goes throughout the construction site. Emily screams, wake up Kev! Mai screams, that's Jayden you're fighting! But the two Rangers continue to fight each other. As they fight, Red Ranger tries to talk to Kevin. Come on Kevin, I know you're in there. During the battle, sometimes Blue Ranger gets knocked to the ground. Other times, it's Blue Ranger. Blue Ranger uses Dragon Splash against Red Ranger. A huge explosion occurs, but Red Ranger is okay. Mike screams at them to stop! Blue Ranger and Red Ranger continue battling. Red Ranger kicks Blue Ranger to the ground. Blue Ranger slowly gets back up. The battle moves throughout the construction site. Blue Ranger charges towards Red Ranger with is Spin Sword raised above his head. Red Ranger tells him to come back to us, but Blue Ranger is still under the spell. their swords clash. Red Ranger spins the disc on his Spin Sword and then strikes Blue Ranger. Electrical currents run through Blue Ranger. Kevin is in pain. The spell leaves his body. Blue Ranger demorphs and Kevin falls to the ground. Mia, Mike, and Emily race over to Kevin. Emily tries to wake up Kevin. Kevin slowly wakes up and asks what happened? Mia tells him, now we have some work to do. Mike, Mia, and Emily help Kevin up. Madimot is furious - you had this planned all along! Red Ranger explains. When we fought in the forest, my resistance symbol protected me from your mind control ray. We weren't sure if the resist disc would work on Kevin too, but I had to try. I had no other choice. Red Ranger apologizes to Kevin for risking fighting him. But I had to get in a close enough position to use the disc. Kevin is confused - fighting me? Mia nods her head at him. Red Ranger continues. Since you are such a good fighter, it took me a lot longer to get close enough to you to use it. Luckily it worked. Kevin feels terrible. he tells them, if you are up to it, I think it's time we battle someone who isn't on our team. Red Ranger replies, you're on. Kevin, Emily, Mia, and Mike pulled out their Samuraizers and morph. Madimot gives the command for Tiger Zord to crush them! Tiger Zord bursts through the ground. Blue Ranger, Yellow Ranger, Pink Ranger, and Green Ranger race over to Red Ranger. He tells them to take care of the Nighlok, he'll handle the Tiger Zord. Red Ranger summons his Lion Zord and goes into mega mode. Red Ranger leaps inside Lion Zord and face down Tiger Zord. Blue Ranger, Green Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Pink Ranger battle Madimot. Blue Ranger strikes Madimot with his Spin Sword. After awhile, Yellow Ranger is the first to notice the Tiger Zord is back and points it out to the rest of the Rangers. Madimot is furious that they turn kitty against him too. Madimot blasts Blue Ranger, Pink Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Green Ranger with his shield. This doesn't stop the four Rangers and they charge at him with the four element strike. Madimot hits the ground, declaring that's not fair! You team up on me! Madimot is defeated. Within moments, Madimot is giant size. Tiger Zord charges towards Madimot. Madimot uses it's shield to fire blasts at Tiger Zord. Despite this, Tiger Zord strikes Madimot hard. Tiger Zord then creates a crevice in the ground. Madimot falls into the crevice. Madimot is outrage - this can't be happening to me! I'm the baddest of the bad! Yellow Ranger suggests to the rest of the Rangers they help Jayden. Blue Ranger, Green Ranger, Pink Ranger, and Yellow Ranger summon their folding zords. When the zords arrives, the four Rangers immediately leap inside them. Dragon Zord, Bear Zord, Turtle Zord, and Ape Zord hurry to help Red Ranger. Samurai Megazord is formed. Samurai Megazord walks over to Tiger Zord. Then Tiger Drill Megazord is formed. Madimot manages to climb out of the crevice. Tiger Drill Megazord and Madimot battle. Madimot uses it's shield to blast Tiger Drill Megazord several times. Red Ranger tells the rest of the Ranges, he thinks they can break the shield with the tiger drill. Red Ranger shouts out, Tiger Drill Charge! With all four drills going at full blast, Tiger Drill Megazord charges towards Madimot. Tiger Drill Megazord hits the shield and it's destroyed, along with Madimot. Madimot protests till the end, I can't be beat, I'm the baddest of the bad! After the battle, the teens return to Shiba House. Mia, Emily, and Mike are playing a board game. Kevin and Jayden are sitting apart from the rest. Kevin is feeling bad. Kevin tells Jayden, after today, I don't feel much like playing. Jayden tells Kevin it wasn't his fault. That Nighlok was the one playing games and using us as the pieces. Tiger Zord is one of our toughest allies and even he couldn't resist that Nighlok's spell. This doesn't make Kevin feel any better. Kevin points out that he raised his sword against him. Jayden replies, and I raised mine against you. Sometimes we can't avoid putting each other at risk. Kevin realizes what Jayden is telling him. He adds, but we have to do what is best for the greater good. Jayden nudges Kevin and tells him he sounds like Mentor. Mia calls over to them, telling them they a e starting a new game and asking them to join. Kevin and Jayden get up and walk over to their friends. Kevin tells them, alright, but I'm blue as he pulls out his folding zord. He tosses the folding zord onto the game board. Mike tells him, yeah, I think we all agree you are the best one to control that. Kevin asks for the dice and Mike passes them on. Emily points out he needs to take a card first. Mia passes a card to Jayden and they all settle in for a fun game.
Kevin and his friends were sitting around a table. The table had a runner with three discs placed on it. Mentor Ji had taken a book from a bookcase and brought it over to the group. Mentor Ji: Now that we've recovered three of the lost discs, we have a new power at our disposal. Jayden: Beetle. Swordfish. Tiger. Together these three discs allow us to form the Samurai Beetle Wing. Mentor Ji opened up the book and displayed the drawing of the Samurai Beetle Wing. Mike: Wow. That looks like one powerful bird. Mentor Ji: Yes, thanks to these discs. So each one has to go to the person we believe is truly ready to help pilot the battle wing. Jayden: I'll keep the Tiger Zord. Mentor Ji: The Swordfish goes to Kevin, who caught it and therefore has a connection with it. Jayden got up and passed the Swordfish disc to Kevin. Kevin was delighted. Mentor Ji: We've decided that the Beetle...Jayden: Should go to Mia. Mia: Me? Mentor Ji: We trust your control and your symbol power the most and we know you will do the difficult work that's needed, to master this disc. Jayden: We're counting on you. Mia: Thank you. I won't let you down. After the meeting, Kevin, Mia, Emily, Jayden, and Mentor Ji were in the kitchen/dining area. Mia was sitting at a table with her plate. Kevin and Emily were preparing their plates. Mike was out in the courtyard practicing with his Spin Sword. Kevin: Wow! What's come over Mike? I'm not use to seeing him train so hard. Kevin went and sat at the table with Mia. Emily carried her plate over to the table as well. Emily: He's actually been working really hard on his symbol power lately. I think he wanted that disc bad. Mia: I know. I kind of feel bad taking it instead of him. Mentor Ji: Don't feel bad. Your hard work is one of the reasons we've chosen you. I told Mike he needs to work just as hard. Emily: But he's been trying. Mentor Ji: Yes, and I believe he has it in him, but until he learns to listen, he isn't ready. Later, there was a Nighlok attack in the city. Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers arrived and were surprised to see several citizens sad and dejected. Red Ranger: Hey, what is all this? Green Ranger: Everyone is so gloomy. It's like they've all become Kevin. Blue Ranger: What? Yellow Ranger: Look! Desperaino leaps in front of them. Desperaino: Isn't it wonderful? Such delicious depths of despair from my rain. They're so lucky. They get to experience the purest, the cruelest, the loveliest misery of all, the loss of hope. Yellow Ranger: That's horrible. Desperaino: Yes, isn't it?! Pink Ranger: We got to get rid of this guy fast! Green Ranger: Oh, we will! Desperaino: Ewww, what an ugly, little sunny outlook you have. Especially when the forecast calls for rain, my rain of pain. Red Ranger: Not going to happen, Nighlok. Let's go! Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers pull out their Spin Swords and charge towards Desperaino. Desperaino: Enough talking about the weather. Instead of rain, I'll just cut straight to the pain. Desperaino uses his weapon and blasts Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers. Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers are hit and land on the pavement hard. Desperaino: So, did that feel so delightfully bad? Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers get back up. Blue Ranger: Mia, we have to use the new discs. Blue Ranger places the Swordfish disc onto his Hydro Bow. Pink Ranger pulls out the Beetle disc and holds it in her hand. Pink Ranger: Right! Desperaino: No! Wrong as rain! Desperaino uses his weapon again and it hits the Beetle disc. The Beetle disc goes flying through the air. Green Ranger leaps up and catches it. Pink Ranger runs over to Green Ranger. Pink Ranger: Wow, good catch. Pink Ranger holds out her hand for the disc, but Green Ranger keeps it and places it on his Forest Spear. Pink Ranger: What are you doing? Blue Ranger runs up to the two. Blue Ranger: Mike, stop! You're not ready! Desperaino: This is no fun. I'll come back to fight when you're not fighting yourselves. Desperaino uses the propeller on the top of his head and flies up into the sky. Red Ranger: Guys, stop it! Get him now! Blue Ranger and Green Ranger race forward. Blue Ranger: Mike, come on! Blue Ranger fires his Hydro Bow several times, but Green Ranger cannot make his Forest Spear work. Green Ranger: Why isn't it working? Desperaino: It must make you sad to be so lame. Desperaino flies away. Blue Ranger is very frustrated. Blue Ranger: Mike, what were you thinking?! Green Ranger: I just wanted to...to help. Kevin and his friends return to Shiba House. Mia and Emily sit together. Mike is sitting way in front. Kevin and Jayden are standing. Mentor Ji is furious. Mentor Ji circles around Mike as he talks to him. Mentor Ji: Mike, I am so disappointed. Putting yourself before the needs of the team, places all of you in serious danger. Here I thought you were finally listening to me and training hard to strengthen the team. I can't believe it's come to this, but you've become a risk to the others. I'll have to ask you to turn over your Samuraizer. Mike: What?! You're benching me! Mentor Ji: It pains me to say it, but I don't think you're truly ready to become a samurai. Mike stands up in anger. Mike: I'm tired of your lectures! You don't know a thing about me and if I'm not ready, how can I do this? Mike creates a symbol power. It makes the plant behind Mentor Ji grow a long and strong leaf that reaches out and pulls on Mentor Ji's stick. Mentor Ji struggles to hold onto the stick. Mentor Ji: Stop this. Kevin, Mia, Jayden, and Emily step forward. Mia: Mike stop! Jayden walks right up to Mike and stares at him intensely. Jayden: Okay, that's enough. The planter behind Mentor Ji shatters onto the floor. Mike: None of you understand. I'm out of here. Mike walks out, leaving his Samuraizer behind. Emily: Mentor, are you okay? Mentor Ji: I'm fine. Afterwards, Kevin, Mia, and Emily are sitting outside. Kevin: I just don't get why Mike was acting so childish. Mia: To be honest, I think they both kind of were. Kevin: Mentor wasn't childish. He's got every reason to be frustrated. Emily: Okay, Mike made a mistake, but it really hurt him to be left out. Kevin: I realize that, but they had to choose the best person for the job. Mia: Sure, but if you ask me, Mike has more than enough symbol power to handle the Beetle disc. Emily: So, why did Mentor pick you over him? Mia: He just made a choice. Doesn't mean it was the right one. Later, Desperaino is back in the city. Blue Ranger, Pink Ranger, Red Ranger, and Yellow Ranger have been battling him. Blue Ranger fires his Hydro Bow at Desperaino. Desperaino jumps up into the sky to avoid being hit. Pink Ranger, Red Ranger, and Yellow Ranger have their Spin Swords drawn. Desperaino taunts the four Rangers that they can't even come close to defeating him while he is flying. Desperaino blasts the four Rangers with his weapon. Blue Ranger, Pink Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Red Ranger are hit and land on the pavement hard. Red Ranger states he can't move. Blue Ranger, Pink Ranger, and Yellow Ranger struggle to get up, but they can't. Desperaino calls them fools. Desperaino is about to fire his weapon again when Mike comes running up. Mike quickly morphs. Yellow Ranger calls out encouragement to him. Green Ranger remembers what Mentor Ji told him in the forest. Green Ranger considers what the forest means to him. The forest is ancient, strong, and wild. And at it's core, it's about renewal and freedom. Green Ranger is confident he can free the full power of the forest in him. Green Ranger transforms his Spin Sword into his Forest Spear. Green Ranger runs towards Desperaino. Desperaino uses his weapon to fire several times at Green Ranger, but Green Ranger is never hit. Green Ranger uses his Forest Spear to launch up into the sky. Desperaino is taken aback. Once in the sky, Green Ranger transforms the Forest Spear back into his Spin Sword and fires it at Desperaino with a tree symbol strike. Desperaino is knocked out of the sky and crashes back down on the pavement. Green Ranger lands gently back onto the pavement. Blue Ranger and Yellow Ranger race over to him. Yellow Ranger tells him that was incredible. Blue Ranger wants to know where did he get symbol power like that? Green Ranger replies, he's always had it. He just needed some help finding it. Pink Ranger is the first to notice Desperaino is back and in mega monster mode. Red Ranger warns the rest of the Rangers to not celebrate yet. Desperaino tells them this is the calm before the real storm. The Rangers summon their folding zords and leap inside them. The Samurai Megazord is quickly formed. Desperaino tells them he would be impressed, if that would do you any good. But even now, you're no match for me. Desperaino floats back up into the sky. Green Ranger can't believe it will be another aerial attack. Desperaino fires his weapon at Samurai Megazord. The Samurai Megazord is hit a couple of times. Red Ranger states, we just can't let him take shots from above us. Red Ranger thinks it's risky, but it's time to try the Battle Wing combination. Blue Ranger is ready and pulls out the Swordfish disc. Red Ranger snaps down the Tiger disc. Pink Ranger pulls out the Beetle disc and tells Green Ranger to take it. Green Ranger is surprised. Pink Ranger tells him, from what I've seen of your symbol power, you'll use it better than me. Green Ranger tells Pink Ranger she is a true friend as he takes the Beetle disc. Swordfish Zord, Tiger Zord, and Beetle Zord are summon. The three zords race towards Desperaino. Blue Ranger enters Swordfish Zord. Red Ranger enters Tiger Zord, and Green Ranger enters Beetle Zord. Red Ranger gives the command for the three zords to combine. Samurai Battlewing is formed. Desperaino is surprised to see they have turned into a bird. He tells them, you would be wise to fly away, bird brains. Desperaino fires his weapon at Samurai Battlewing. Despite himself, Desperaino is impressed with how quickly Samurai Battlewing avoids his blasts. Samurai Battlewing and Desperaino fly towards each other and Samurai Battlewing lands a blow on Desperaino. Desperaino goes after Samurai Battlewing, firing his weapon and missing. Desperaino accidentally bumps into a building. Red Ranger gives the command for the vortex spin! Red Ranger has Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger fire at Desperaino with their zords. Desperaino is hit. Samurai Battlewing then uses the vortex spin to strike Desperaino. Desperaino's propeller on top of his head is knocked off. Samurai Battlewing uses charging flash for another strike. As Desperaino falls towards the ground, he is hit and destroyed. After the battle, they all return back to the base. Mentor Ji enters Shiba House, with Emily and Jayden. Mentor Ji pauses for a moment and asks, what's this? He glances around, but no one says anything. Mentor Ji walks towards Kevin, Mia, and Mike. Mike has something hidden behind his back. Mike tells Mentor Ji, it's a little something to say thanks and to let you know I'll be listening. Mike presents the plant he had hidden. Mentor Ji tells Mike, as will I, as he takes the plant with a smile. Mike pulls out his Samuraizer and creates a power symbol and hits it towards the plant. One of the leaves begins to stretch. Mia becomes alarmed and asks Mike what he is doing? Mentor Ji is not alarmed and watches the plant in amazement as several more leaves begins to grow and stretch. Kevin becomes exasperated, not again! Mike doesn't understand what all the concern is about. Mike makes a fist and the plant does the same. Mentor Ji pounds fists with the plant. Mentor Ji laughs and everyone else grins.
The gap sensor goes off. Kevin and his friends race out of Shiba House. They used their Samuraizer to morph and race out of the gates. Giant size Moogers and normal size Moogers are attacking the city. Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger battle the normal size Moogers on the ground with their Spin Swords. Blue Ranger is in his Swordfish Zord. Green Ranger is in his Beetle Zord and Red Ranger in his Tiger Zord. Swordfish Zord, Beetle Zord, and Tiger Zord race through the city. Green Ranger: Kevin, we got giant Moogers dead ahead. Blue Ranger: Yeah, it's time to team up. Green Ranger: Sounds like a plan. Let's do it Jayden. Red Ranger: Zords combine! Samurai Battlewing! Blue Ranger, Green Ranger, Red Ranger: Samurai Battlewing! We are united! Samurai Battlewing flies towards the giant Moogers. Red Ranger: Punch it! Samurai Battlewing fires and the giant Moogers are destroyed. Blue Ranger: Yeah! Green Ranger: Doing it! Blue Ranger: Booyah! Blue Ranger, Green Ranger, and Red Ranger arrived to help Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger with the normal size Moogers. Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers form a circle and face the endless Moogers. Yellow Ranger: Man, are we glad to see you guys. Green Ranger: Wow! There's a whole lot of ugly here. Red Ranger: Yupe. Time to change this picture. Red Ranger places a disc on his Spin Sword. Red Ranger: Spin Sword! Blazing Strike! Several Moogers are destroyed. Blue Ranger: Spin Sword! Dragon Splash! Blue Ranger destroys several more Moogers. Pink Ranger: Spin Sword! Air Wave! Yet more Moogers are destroyed. Green Ranger: Spin Sword! Forest Vortex! Green Ranger destroys more Moogers. Yellow Ranger: Spin Sword! Seismic Quake! The remaining Moogers are destroyed. Unfortunately more Moogers seeps out of gap. Green Ranger: What? There's more! Pink Ranger: They're like roaches. Blue Ranger: Then we have to be the exterminators. Blue Ranger and the rest of the Rangers battle the new batch of Moogers with their Spin Swords. Green Ranger is battling a Mooger. Green Ranger: Man, you Moogers just don't quit. The Mooger becomes distracted. Green Ranger: Hun? The Mooger knocks Green Ranger to the ground and walks towards Red Ranger. Green Ranger: Hey, what gives? Another Mooger has Pink Ranger in a hold when he suddenly lets go of her and walks towards Red Ranger. Pink Ranger: What? Guys they want Jayden! Blue Ranger: What are you doing cowards! Come back and fight. Red Ranger has been battling several Moogers and he notices they are all headed towards him. Red Ranger: What's gong on? They all hear a strange voice chanting. From a gap, Master Xandred is chanting. Master Xandred: Red Ranger. Red Ranger. Red Ranger. Red Ranger recognizes the voice and whispers to himself. Red Ranger: Master Xandred. Green Ranger: Hey, check it out! That weird voice is putting these Moogers into a trance. Yellow Ranger: Yeah, it's like they're hypnotize. Green Ranger: It's creeping me out. Blue Ranger: Hey, let's circle up to protect Jayden. Blue Ranger, Green Ranger, Pink Ranger, and Yellow Ranger leaped over to where Red Ranger was and immediately began battling the Moogers surrounding Red Ranger. Blue Ranger: Jayden, watch out! Red Ranger: I wanted to try out a new symbol combination for awhile and now is the time. Red Ranger takes Yellow Ranger's Spin Sword. Red Ranger: Spin Sword! Blazing Storm! The Moogers are destroyed. They all can hear Master Xandred's voice coming from the gap. Master Xandred: Red Ranger, you're in danger. Master Xandred laughs and vanishes form within the gap. Yellow Ranger: Oh no! Red Ranger walks towards where the voice came from. He demorphs as he walks. Kevin, Mike, Mia, and Emily demorph as well. Mike: Alright, could someone please tell me what the heck that voice was? Emily: I never heard anything so evil. Mia: That wasn't just a normal Nighlok, was it Jayden? Jayden: No. I think that was Master Xandred. Kevin: Master Xandred! As in the Lord of the Nighloks? You think he's back? Mike: Are you serious? Why would he be calling out Red Ranger, Red Ranger? Why just you? Jayden didn't have an answer for him. Kevin and his friends returned to Shiba House. Mentor Ji was with them. Kevin: Why were the Moogers only after Jayden? Mentor Ji: Jayden, Master Xandred must know. Mike: Know what? Are you keeping secrets from us? Mentor Ji: There is a secret symbol that can create a seal. The previous Red Ranger used it to imprison Master Xandred. When Master Xandred last attacked us, it was a surprise, and we were nearly defeated. That symbol is how Jayden's father was able to seal Xandred away last time. Mike: So that means that's Jayden now. Mentor Ji: Yes. Only members of the Red Ranger Shiba family can use the seal. Mike: Guess that means you really are the man. Emily adds Jayden's father did everything he could to save us. It becomes too much for Jayden and he walks out. Mike wants to know what's the big deal? Jayden just has to use his special Shiba family symbol power to seal Master X. Mentor Ji tells him, it's not that simple. It takes unbelievable symbol power to make the seal permanent. Later, Kevin, Mike, Emily, and Mia, are out in the courtyard, training. Mike is very optimistic. He tells his friends, Jayden just has to master the symbol and Master Xandred will be old news. Mia points out the last Red Ranger couldn't master the seal. Kevin adds and the Red Ranger before couldn't master it as well. No Ranger has. Emily is confident that Jayden will master it. He has too. It's his destiny. Kevin agrees. Kevin tells his friends, we have to protect Jayden. It's our number one mission. Mike, Emily, and Mia agree. They are unaware that Jayden is about to step out when he overhears their conversation. Kevin tells his friends, if we work as a team, we can protect Jayden from anything. Emily adds, now I see it. That's why we have been training our whole lives. Jayden becomes upset and steps outside. He tells them, no. It's not necessary. Jayden picks up a stick and tells them to protect themselves. It's business as usual. Stay focus on the battle at hand, as a team. Kevin insists that they have to protect him. Jayden yells no! That's just too much of a burden to bear. Jayden starts working out with the stick. Kevin, Mike, Emily, and Mia watch him, uncertain. The gap sensor goes off and they all take off. The teens arrive where they believe the Nighlok is. Mike soon spots Robtish and they race forward. Robtish asks which one of you is the Red Ranger? Jayden steps forward a couple of paces. Robtish announces he has to destroy him. Jayden shouts back, I'll show you who's going to be sorry. Mia whispers to Kevin that Master Xandred must know that Jayden has the sealing power. Jayden walks towards Robtish. Kevin and Mike catch up with him and grab his arms to stop him. Kevin tells him this is too dangerous. This is exactly the type of battle you should avoid. Let us do our duty and protect you. Jayden shakes them off and races forward to morph. Robtish tries to blast Jayden, but misses. Red Ranger leaps towards Robtish with his Spin Sword drawn. Red Ranger and Robtish immediately fight, trying to strike each other with their swords. Kevin, Mike, Emily, and Mia watch the battle. Mia wonders why Jayden won't listen. Kevin has no idea, but wants to help his friend. Kevin, Mike, Emily, and Mia morph. With their Spin Swords drawn, the four Rangers race forward. Several Moogers arrive. Blue Ranger, Green Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Pink Ranger are kept busy battling the Moogers with their Spin Swords. With the battles going on, no one notices that Deker has arrived. The rest of the Rangers want to help Red Ranger, but they are battling the Moogers. Blue Ranger notices Red Ranger is in trouble and becomes alarmed. Blue Ranger alerts the rest of the Rangers to what is happening, as they continue to battle the Moogers. Blue Ranger and Yellow Ranger race over to Red Ranger. Green Ranger and Pink Ranger continue battling the Moogers. Robtish hits Blue Ranger and Yellow Ranger with his double slash. Numerous explosions erupt as Blue Ranger and Yellow Ranger are hit. Kevin and Emily demorph and fall to the ground. They are badly hurt and can no longer continue. Eventually Deker also leaps into the battle. Robtish retreats as he is drying out. Deker retreats as well, as he wants Red Ranger at full strength for their duel. Kevin and Emily are groaning in pain. Mia runs over to them, followed by Mike. Mike pulls out his Samuraizer and contacts Mentor Ji, telling him, we need help. Kevin and Emily are beat up. Red Ranger demorphs. Mia tells Emily to hold on. Jayden stares at his friends for a moment and then runs over to them. They managed to get back to Shiba House. Mia makes sure Kevin and Emily are comfortable in their beds.
Kevin was in bed, working on his sketch book when Mike walked in. Mike: You know, a young samurai once told me that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Kevin struggled to sit up. Kevin: I told you that. He glanced at his breakfast. Kevin: I'll eat once I finish this. Kevin showed his sketchbook to Mike, Emily, and Mia. Kevin: While I've been laid up, I've been thinking about the possibility of combining the Samurai Battlewing and the Megazord. Mike: Last time I had a sick day, I played video games, drank ginger ale, and had chicken soup. Kevin shakes his head. Mike looks over at Mia. Mike: What's up with you? Mia: Jayden's still not back. Mentor Ji walked in with forced cheer. Mentor Ji: Hello everyone! Hi Emily! Hope you're feeling better! Have you finished breakfast?! Mike: You can cut the happy, happy act. We know something up. Mia: We know Jayden's gone. Mentor Ji dropped the pretense. Mentor Ji: Don't worry. He'll be back. The rest of us need to focus on our mission. Later, Kevin and Emily were in their beds, stretching their limbs. Mike: Well, good to see you guys are at least feeling better. Mike step outside to sit with Mia, but Kevin and Emily could still hear their conversation. Mike: I remember how messed up I felt when a Nighlok attacked my buddies just cause they were hanging with me. Mia: Think about what Jayden's feeling. Just knowing that we're willing to take hits for him. Mike: Yeah. It must be so hard to know that you're the only Ranger with the sealing power. Mia: I know. Imagine if you held the whole world's fate in your hands. Kevin and Emily exchange concern looks. Kevin and Emily were feeling much better when the gap sensor went off. Kevin, Mia, Emily, and Mike race into the room where Mentor Ji was. Kevin tells Mentor Ji that they heard the gap sensor. Mentor Ji asks if they are really up for this? Kevin replies that they have to be up for it. Emily adds, we all wish Jayden was here with us, but there's a Nighlok out there. Mentor Ji walks away from them. Mentor Ji confides that they should know that Jayden truly struggles with putting any of you at risk. He resisted calling upon you when Master Xandred first awaken. He wanted to take on this fight alone. Which is why he walks alone now. Kevin steps forward and tells Mentor Ji, forgive me Mentor, but that's wrong. Jayden will never walk alone again. Mia adds, he will always have us. We're a team until the end. Mike reminds his friends they have a Nighlok to take down and they race out of the room. Kevin, Mia, Mike, and Emily arrived in a park by Harbor Village to see Jayden has been knocked down by several Moogers. Kevin, Mia, Emily, and Mike immediately leap into battle. Kevin, Emily, Mike, and Mia battle the Moogers with their Spin Swords. During the battle, Mia shouts out, we're in this together! Forever! Jayden struggles to sit up. Emily adds, your mission is our mission. Kevin shouts out, she's right. We won't let you do this alone! Jayden manages to stand back up. The Moogers are defeated. Kevin, Mia, Mike, Jayden, and Emily face down Robtish. Kevin, Mike, Jayden, Emily, and Mia morph. Robtish is not bothered. Good. Now I can destroy you all together. Robtish is standing by more Moogers. Robtish gives the Moogers the command to attack. The Rangers easily defeat the Moogers with their Spin Swords. The Rangers then battle Robtish with their Spin Swords. After awhile, the Rangers regroup. Red Ranger tells Robtish, together, our team can handle anything you throw at us. Robtish replies, prove it. The Rangers battle Robtish once more with their Spin Swords. The Rangers knock Robtish to the ground. Robtish slowly gets back up. Red Ranger warns the rest of the Rangers that Robtish will start with a shock wave. Red Ranger continues, then watch for his slash attack. Defend against those and we'll be fine. I've got a surprise of my own. Blue Ranger, Yellow Ranger, Pink Ranger, and Green Ranger are ready. Robtish launches his sonic shockwave. Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger block it and defeat it with their Spin Swords. Robtish launches into his double slash attack. This time Blue Ranger and Green Ranger block it and defeat it with their Spin Swords. Red Ranger has his Fire Smasher ready. It turns into the Five Disc Tiger Cannon. Blue Ranger, Yellow Ranger, Green Ranger, and Pink Ranger toss their discs over and they land perfectly on the Five Disc Tiger Cannon. Red Ranger fires the cannon and Robtish is defeated. The Rangers gather together. Blue Ranger tells Red Ranger, that was brilliant. Red Ranger replies, thanks. Everyone okay? Green Ranger replies, never better bro. Robtish grows to giant size. The Rangers quickly summon their folding zords and Samurai Megazord is formed. Robtish summons flying Moogers. The flying Moogers fly straight towards Samurai Megazord. Green Ranger can't believe they can fly now too. The flying Moogers fired at Samurai Megazord. Robtish attacks Samurai Megazord as well. The Rangers are having a difficult time as they are caught between them. Green Ranger suggests the Samurai Battlewing. Blue Ranger has an even better idea. We should combine the Samurai Battlewing with the Megazord. Yellow Ranger wonders if that is possible? Blue Ranger pulls out his sketch book and passes the sheets to the rest of the Rangers. Red Ranger decides to let Blue Ranger take the lead. Swordfish Zord, Beetle Zord, and Tiger Zord are summon and Samurai Battlewing is formed. Samurai Battlewing fires at Robtish. Robtish falls to the ground. Red Ranger looks over the sketches and concludes it's an air strike combination. The Rangers create the symbol power and Battlewing Megazord is formed. Blue Ranger is very excited over the new Megazord. Red Ranger is impressed. Robtish gets back up. Battlewing Megazord flies into the sky. Yellow Ranger can't believe they are flying. Robtish commands the flying Moogers to attack. The flying Moogers fire at Battlewing Megazord. Red Ranger warns the rest of the Rangers there are Moogers on their tail. The Battlewing Megazord pulls up. The flying Moogers continue to fire at Battlewing Megazord. Battlewing Megazord flies through the Moogers, firing at them. Battlewing Megazord battles several of the Moogers. Battlewing Megazord knocks several of the Moogers out of the sky. Soon Battlewing Megazord flies after the remaining Moogers. The Moogers are destroyed. Battlewing Megazord faces Robtish, who thought they had flown the coop. Red Ranger states, looks like we saved the worst for last. Robtish charges towards Battlewing Megazord with his sword. Robtish and Battlewing Megazord battle. After a couple of strikes, Blue Ranger suggests they fly up, so they can take him down. Battlewing Megazord flies up into the air. Battlewing Megazord flies towards Robtish and strikes him hard. Robtish is destroyed. The Rangers are in high spirits. Blue Ranger is very happy that it worked. After the battle, the teens run towards Shiba House. Mentor Ji is outside, waiting for them. Mentor Ji is very happy to see Jayden is back. They shake hands. Jayden apologizes for leaving. Mentor Ji tells him it doesn't matter, as long as you are back. Jayden confirms that he is back where he needs to be. Back with his team. Mentor Ji tells them, good work. I think you all deserve some fun. Anything you want. Kevin, Mike, Mia, and Emily get very excited. Kevin is eager to try something new. Mike suggests the movies. Emily thinks that's a good idea. Kevin, Mia, Mike, and Emily head into the house. Mia wants to watch a romantic comedy. Mike doesn't think so, unless it involves zombies.
