Daita Oiwa and Tsuyoshi Kaijo enter the Gorengers' Secret Base. Tsuyoshi informs Commander Edogawa that there was no trace of the Black Cross Army at headquarters. (Peggy Matsuyama and Kenji Asuka had patrolled headquarters earlier and Peggy reported feeling watched. ) Daita adds, the headquarter staff said they installed the mirror three days ago. Peggy insists that someone was watching her. Daita dismisses it as Peggy being tired. It's hard for a lady to fight the Black Cross Army. Which upsets Peggy even more. I'm not tired at all. Commander Edogawa wants Peggy to take break for two or three days. Peggy protests. Tsuyoshi tries to cheer Peggy up by telling her, lucky you, a summer break! Peggy, Kenji and Haruko Nakamura settled in at the Kanzanji Hot Spring/Sun Hotel. After awhile, Ao Ranger is battling Sun Halo Mask and Mirror Mask. Ki Ranger, Aka Ranger, and Mido Ranger arrive on their Machines. Sun Halo Mask and Mirror Mask are pleased to see them arrive. The four Gorengers stand on top of a building and look down at Sun Halo Mask and Mirror Mask. The four Gorengers leap down to the ground. The four Gorengers surround Mirror Mask and Sun Halo Mask. Mido Ranger declares it's payback time for Momo Ranger! Mirror Mask actives his Sun Mirror, which quickly blinds Mido Ranger.

The four Gorengers face down Sun Halo Mask and Mirror Mask. Ki Ranger states, we won't fall for that. Sun Halo Mask responds, I'm not sure about that. Mirror Mask, get ready for Sun Mirror Dual Attack! Mirror Mask leaps away and then faces Sun Halo Mask. A red beam emits out of Sun Halo Mask's eyes, hits Mirror Mask's mirrors, and the mirrors reflect the beam towards the four Gorengers, who are hit. The four Gorengers try to retreat, but are hit once more with the Mirror Dual Attack. Ki Ranger suggests they use Gorenger Storm. Mido Ranger questions doing it without Momo Ranger. This makes Ao Ranger realized why they had targeted her alone. Aka Ranger suggests they wait for clouds to cover the sun. Once the clouds cover the sun, the four Gorengers take their chance. Sun Halo Mask tells Mirror Mask it's time for another sun Mirror Dual Attack. Mirror Mask does so, and the four Gorengers duck down. They jump down into a passageway and take cover as another Mirror Dual Attack strikes. Sun Halo Mask gives the order for the Zolders to blow it up.

Peggy replies, I will, once I pay them back. Peggy kicks away a Zolder. Peggy transforms into Momo Ranger. Several Zolders run towards her and she throws her Earrings Bomb at them, destroying them.
