Alyssa reads a story to Max and Danny.  The story is about a magic creature that lives in Turtle Lake.  Anyone worthily may make a wish if they throw a note into the lake.  Max decides to try it, but does not want the rest of the Rangers to know.  Max writes his note, encloses it in a bottle, and tosses the bottle into the lake.  Later Ship Org appears and the Org has Max's bottle embedded in his body.  Max is desperate to get the bottle back.   While battling the Ship Org, Max becomes injured.    The rest of the Rangers find Max and return him to Animarium.  Leaving Max in the care of Princess Shayla, they leave to find the Ship Org.  Max awakens from a recurring dream and talks to Princess Shayla about it.   Max notices his friends are missing and Princess Shayla lets Max know that they went back to find the Ship Org.  Max leaves to join the other Rangers to battle the Ship Org.  Max's recurring dream becomes a reality.  The spear of Bardolous is trying to reach Max because of his good heart.  Max becomes more focused and the spear of Bardolous comes to him in the form of the Giraffe Zord.   After the defeat of the Ship Org, Max searches for his bottle that was shattered in the previous battle.  Max finds his note and Danny walks up to him with a new bottle.  Max makes his wish - for the other Rangers to treat him like an adult.
