COMMANDER EDOGAWA

Commander Gonpachi Edogawa

Black Cross Army launched an attack on several branches of EAGLE. In the aftermath, Gorenger was formed to battle Black Cross Army. Gonpachi Edogawa was their Commander. Gorenger's base was beneath Snack Shop Gon, where Gonpachi worked as a cook. His specialty being curry. Aka Ranger traveled to various locations, delivering messages to the following Gorenger members to meet at Snack Shop Gon. Kenji enters and is greeted by the cook behind the counter. Yoko also greets him. Kenji orders coffee as he finds a place to sit at the counter. Two other young ladies sit together. One of them orders coffee as well while the other one orders ice cream. Daita shouts coming in as he enters Snack Shop Gon. Daita is greeted as well. Daita sits at the counter and orders four large curries. Cook tries to talk Daita out of his order. He tells Daita that his large curries are really large. No one can eat four of them. He tells him to go with two. But Daita insists on having four. Cook notes Daita is stubborn. Cook gets to work on the curries. He places the four large curries in front of Daita and thinks it will be too much for him. Daita immediately begins to dig into the curries. Daita compliments the cook on the curries. Cook stares at Daita as he makes quick work of the dishes. Peggy enters and orders ice cream as she sits next to Daita. A young boy enters and Yoko asks him if he wants his allowance? The young boy replies yes. Yoko good naturedly pushes his head and gives him the money. The young boy thanks Yoko and scampers off. Tsuyoshi enters and is greeted as well. Peggy, Daita, and Kenji all turned around in their seats to look at Tsuyoshi. Tsuyoshi walks to the end of the counter and places a small metallic key down. The rest have similar metallic keys and place them down next to his. Daita asks, aren't we one short? Tsuyoshi answers, it's fine. (Akira meets them in one of the passageways to the base.) He grabs his key and gets up. Kenji, Peggy, and Daita also pick up their keys and follow Tsuyoshi. Cook watches as the four exit through a door that leads them towards the Gorenger base. Eventually they enter the room that is their new base. They take a look around the impressive room with numerous computers. A voice comes over the intercom, telling them, he is the Commander of the Gorengers. He informs them that Gold Mask has attacked a gunpowder factory. They are using kindergarten students as hostages and have invaded the factory. The children are in grave danger. Their mission is to safely rescue the children and defeat Gold Mask. The Gorengers are successful in their first mission to rescue the children and destroy Gold Mask.

At Snack Shop Gon, Daita is devouring his curry. He is surrounded by Tomoko, Haruko, Kenji, and Taro. A Reversi Game Board is in front of them. Daita comments on the difficulty of the game. Daita asks for another dish of curry. Cook tells him he is going to turn yellow, if he keeps eating curry. Yuko enters and announces she is back. Cook welcomes her back. Yuko leans over the counter and in a low voice tells Cook, the experiment has been made. She also shows him some papers. Cook, also in a low voice, tells her good work. The Communication Device goes off on Kenji's wrist. Kenji glances over at Daita and gives a small nod. They both get up and leave, making their way towards Gorenger Secret Base. They enter as the Commander is giving their instructions. Professor Kudo was attacked and abducted by Samurai Mask. Their mission is to save Professor Kudo and make sure Black Cross Army does not get his equipment. Koichi, Professor Kudo's young son, is found at the park and brought back to Snack Shop Gon. Soon, Koichi Kudo screams that he wants to go home and tries to run away from Snack Shop Gon. But he is quickly surrounded by Daita, Kenji, Tomoko and Haruko. Daita tries to encourage Koichi to stay by telling him the curry is tasty. But it doesn't work and Koichi runs out the door. Daita races out of Snack Shop Gon, searching for Koichi, who has managed to get away. Kenji races outside as well, followed by Yoko, Tomoko, and Haruko. Kenji shouts at Daita before you go get him, remember our infiltration! Daita returns to tell Kenji, that the kid was entrusted to me! He asks everyone to help. They all agree and all five run around searching for Koichi. Koichi is hiding close by and when he feels the coast is clear, he takes off running in the opposite direction. Cook steps out in time to see the direction Koichi is running. Cook shouts out, hey yellow! Daita turns around and Cook points in the direction Koichi is running in. Daita starts to run in that direction, but suddenly stops as he realizes Cook had called him yellow. Daita asks Cook if he called Daita yellow. Cook denies it, telling him he had called out Oiwa, his name. Daita isn't sure. Cook tells him he just misheard and urges him to hurry up and get Koichi. Daita puzzles over it for a moment and then takes off running. Koichi ends up being captured by Black Cross Army. The Gorengers rescue Koichi and Professor Kudo and they are taken safely away by Variblune. Samurai Mask is destroyed by the Gorengers and Black Cross Army's plans to change Earth into a desert is stopped.
