601-FON1.
-   Some time after its departure from Earth, the Megashuttle drifted through space, no longer possessing the boosters which formed the Astro Megazord Blaster; the four teens, looking through a window, were captivated by the view of a black hole or wormhole, perhaps one through which they'd just traveled.
-   The teens were still anticipating a journey to Eltar when they were captured by the Megaship.
-   After the Astro Megaship had opened up and sealed the shuttle inside it, the four teens and Alpha soon found themselves in a corridor of the Megaship, and they began exploring its rooms, eventually ending up on the deck containing the workbay and bridge.
-   Upon entering from the direction of the workbay and seeing T.J., Ashley, and Alpha on the bridge, morphed Andros was startled; he backed away anxiously as T.J. apologetically tried to explain that they hadn't come there by choice, asking if this was his ship, and he then ran when he saw Cassie and Carlos happening to walk up from the workbay as well.
-   Andros slid down a ladder leading to a lower deck and eventually ambushed the teens on Megadeck 6, attacking them despite their attempts to explain that they didn't want to fight.
-   Just as Alpha rushed up exclaiming, "Straight-nah!", with his damaged voice chip, a sphinx ship sent by Astronema blasted the Megaship, knocking everyone into the wall.
-   After Andros had taken the Megalift to the bridge, the teens and Alpha, looking for another way to the bridge, stumbled upon the engine room, where the engines were now disabled due to a loose cable, but they soon fixed it, and Alpha started the engines back up from a control kiosk.
-   When asked, T.J. told Andros they were the Power Rangers, making him softly repeat, "Power Rangers?" with surprise, and T.J. then added, "From the planet Earth."
-   When T.J. explained on the bridge that they had been the Power Rangers and that they were on their way to Eltar to save Zordon, Andros faintly glanced over his shoulder without a word.
-   As morphed Andros prepared to disembark to fight off the Quantrons approaching the downed Megaship, T.J. told him they were going with him, and the four teens ran outside with Red Ranger to fight the Quantrons without powers.

602-FON2.
-   The teens attempted to fight the Quantrons fairly unsuccessfully, but they helped each other out until Andros had managed to chase the enemies away.
-   As the four teens checked each other out, Andros demorphed into his Megaship uniform and stood still as the teens studied him, with Ashley circling him with a scrutinizing gaze.
-   After the teens had introduced themselves, Andros seemed initially startled by T.J.'s attempt to shake hands, but he eventually returned the gesture and told them his name.
-   Soon, Carlos was in the engine room attempting to repair Alpha following DECA's instructions, while the other three teens spoke with Andros as he made repairs to the outside of the ship.
-   T.J. planned for the teens to set a new course for the Cimmerian Planet if the shuttle couldn't make it to Eltar, but, having just been there, Andros knew the Cimmerian Planet was already abandoned by now.
-   When Ashley asked about Zordon, Andros told the teens that Dark Specter had him and was draining all his powers; T.J. and Cassie said that if Zordon lost all his powers, they were all history, but Andros replied that Zordon was strong and that it would take some time for Dark Specter to take away all the power, which gave Andros some time.
-   Cassie tried to explain that they were all in this together, but Andros merely walked away into the Megaship; once in the engine room, T.J. told him they all had the same goal, to protect Zordon.
-   Andros contemptuously told the teens they were planetary Rangers, from Earth, and asked what they knew about space; T.J. supposed they knew nothing, and Andros agreed, "Exactly."
-   After an engine test, Carlos said they'd have to wait until they got back to Earth before Alpha's speech board could be fixed, but Andros then took Alpha aside and fixed him.
-   Ashley wondered where they should go next, with Zordon having been captured by Dark Specter.
-   After repairing Alpha, Andros went to make sure the shuttle could make it back to Earth, and while he was later working under a set of controls on the bridge, Andros had DECA program the shuttle for Earth.
-   While Andros worked, Ashley came in from the Megalift, and the other three soon entered from a side door; Andros told the teens they had fuel and supplies, enough to get them back to Earth.
-   The teens got into the Megalift for DECA to take them to the space hatch for them to leave, and they were soon standing outside for the Megaship's windy takeoff.
-   As the teens walked toward the shuttle, planning to get back and protect the Earth, they suddenly noticed Alpha wasn't with them despite having thought he was.
-   The teens were suddenly attacked by Quantrons and were soon grappled.
-   Andros had the Mega Accelerator set to Hyper Rush 3, but Alpha, having stowed away on the Megaship, soon convinced him to turn the Megaship around, telling him the five of them had the same mission and were supposed to be a team.
-   Upon arriving on the planet, Astronema remarked, "So, this is what Power Rangers look like after they lose their powers. Mm, a sorry sight."; she then seemed surprised when T.J. didn't know who she was.
-   Astronema asked where the Red Ranger had gone, and when Cassie refused to tell her, Astronema walked away and casually told a Quantron to destroy them, having no use for them.
-   When a massive hole opened up in the sky above, Astronema cheerfully left, and powerful blue blasts of energy then shot at the Megaship from above as it swooped down over the teens and Quantrons from the hole in the sky; a huge explosion from one of the blasts stunning the Quantrons and letting the teens escape their grasp.
-   Once the Megaship had landed, Andros ran out and gave the four teens Astro Morphers, apparently distributing them at random; after telling them to put them on, Andros called, "All right, let's rocket!" and just as he performed his preparatory gesture to morph, T.J.'s hand could be seen simultaneously doing the gesture as well; the other teens weren't shown.
?   Each of the teens somehow apparently knew the code of 3-3-5-Enter used to activate the Astro Morphers.
-   After watching Andros summon his Spiral Saber by name, the other four brand-new Space Rangers were able to try it as well, calling out the names of their respective special weapons.
-   The four new Rangers each liked his or her special weapon .
-   Later, as Andros gave his new teammates a tour of the Megaship, they were wearing their own respectively-colored versions of his Megaship uniform.
-   T.J. asked where they started to look for Zordon, and Andros replied that they started by fixing the Megaship, as she wasn't ready to make a long-distance voyage.
-   Andros didn't have the equipment needed to fix the Megaship, so Cassie suggested NASADA on Earth; initially uncomfortable with the idea, Andros eventually swallowed his pride and had DECA set the course for Earth.

603-SOSh.
-   On their journey to Earth, Andros, Cassie, and Carlos watched as morphed Ashley and T.J. fought Craterites and a manta ray monster in the Simudeck, which Andros was just introducing to the teens.
-   When Alpha announced their approach of Earth after the Simudeck lesson, T.J., Cassie and Carlos ran off excited while Ashley stayed a moment to talk with Andros in the Simudeck.
-   Soon, the five Rangers flew from the Megaship to NASADA in the Megashuttle to obtain the equipment they needed.
-   The next day, the teens, all wearing casual clothes matching their new colors, took Andros with them on their first visit to the Surf Spot, which strongly appeared to be a remodeled Youth Center, under new ownership; such a transition implies a passage of weeks during which the four teens would have been in space; this would be the first of many long trips in space, yet how the four Earthen teens explained their absences to their friends and family is unknown.
-   When Bulk, having drunk some hot sauce secretly put into his milkshake by Andros, rushed over to the teens' table and poured a jug of water into his mouth, Andros chuckled to himself behind his hand, and Carlos asked "Bulkie" if he was okay.
-   Skull, wondering whether Professor Phenomenus would believe them if they told him about seeing a UFO the previous night, mockingly gave their dialogue as the teens listened: "Professor! Last night we saw an alien spaceship! Round, with big pointy antennas, half invisible, just green lines, really!"
-   After Bulk and Skull had left to find the Professor, Carlos and T.J. knew their description matched the Dark Fortress, at which point Andros stood up, whispering, "Astronema!", and he had them leave to get the rest of the supplies and return to the ship immediately.
?   The teens bought the last of their needed Megaship parts from Angel Grove Electronics, which was having a sale all week on computer components.
-   Andros waited outside with an AmScanner, and when the teens came out with the purchased parts, he told them they were being followed; after they'd ducked behind a corner and put down their items, Quantrons appeared in front of them and fought them in the town shopping area.
-   After the Quantrons had run away, Andros was sure Astronema was after the shuttle, and he said the villains would destroy it if they found it; Alpha told the teens they had trouble, and they ran off to morph behind a builing.
-   Somewhere on NASADA premises near a giant satellite dish and the shuttle launch bay, Ecliptor confronted the Rangers; the four new Rangers didn't know who he was, but Andros told them, saying he was trouble.
?   The other four Rangers were missing for a moment while Andros fought Ecliptor, making Ecliptor assume they were hiding; they rushed up to Andros after he'd been thrown aside.
-   As the Rangers flew out of the Megaship in the shuttle to form the Megazord, Andros asked T.J. about their status, treating him like second-in-command.
-   Later on the Megaship, the teens checked the Megaship's systems, with Andros on the bridge, Carlos and Ashley checking "velocity junctions," apparently in the workbay, and T.J. and Cassie elsewhere; everything seemed to check out perfectly.
-   Ashley took Andros to the Simudeck for a game of pool, where she used the control kiosk to bring up a pool table room.

604-ShSh.
-   The next day, as the Megaship appeared to be in Earth orbit, Andros showed the teens the red Galaxy Glider in the workbay, explaining how it worked.
-   According to Andros, the Galaxy Gliders, which the Rangers rode while morphed to fly through space, were for safety since the Astro Megashuttle was too vulnerable to attack.
-   When DECA announced Electrotramp's attack in Angel Grove, Andros decided to forgo their training session and leapt into his jump tube; although nervous, the others then did the same.
-   At the power plant, the Rangers were saved from Electrotramp by the Ninja Turtles when they suddenly streaked in as green energy, and the four Earthen teens were amazed that the Turtles were real; Andros, meanwhile, was suspicious.
-   Donatello asked that since the Rangers were real, whether it was true they had a spaceship; when the Turtles asked for a ride to New York City, T.J. told the worried Andros to lighten up and jovially accepted without Andros's agreement, then the four Rangers teleported with the Turtles to the Megaship.
-   Soon afterward, as Andros performed diagnostics on the engine, the four unmorphed teens gave the highly curious Turtles a tour of the Megaship, explaining its systems.
-   When the Turtles took over the ship and allowed Astronema, Quantrons, and Elgar to teleport into the bridge, the girls managed to escape down a hallway.
-   On Megadeck 6, Carlos and T.J. stumbled upon Quantrons in the hallway and fought them.
-   Soon, all of the teens but Andros were captured, tied up with glowing cable in the engine room and guarded by Quantrons.
-   Hiding behind the reactor, Andros used his telekinesis to cut the teens' restraining cable with a pair of wire cutters, but they dropped afterward, making the Quantrons investigate.
-   T.J. showed a Quantron the cut wire and kicked him back, then the five teens rushed off to get to the jump tubes.
-   In the shuttle after flying through a reverse-polarized magnetic field to jam the Megaship's sensors, the Rangers landed the shuttle on a rocky planet and were running away from the shuttle when Astronema and Quantrons attacked.
-   Soon, the Turtles arrived and handed the Rangers back their dropped weapons, with the Rangers initially a bit fearful.
-   Leonardo told them, "The green machine has gone clean!" and Andros thanked him and gave a thumbs-up, telling him he believed him this time.
-   The Turtles and Rangers teamed up against the Quantrons, in the following pairs: Michelangelo and Cassie, Donatello and T.J., Raphael and Ashley, Venus and Carlos, and Leonardo and Andros.
-   After Astronema had retreated, Mike kissed morphed Cassie's hand and complimented her beauty; when the two teams headed back to the shuttle, Venus took T.J.'s arm, Cassie put her arm around Mike, Andros walked with Leo, Don walked with Carlos, and Ashley must have walked with Raph.
-   On the bridge once the Megaship had returned to Earth orbit, Ashley told the Turtles to stop by if they were ever in space, and Mike returned the offer, telling the teens to pop their head into their sewer if they were ever in New York; the girls tried to be polite but were admittedly disgusted.
-   Mike said there was something he wanted to just once before he left, and the Turtles then flew from the Megaship as green streaks; they were riding the Rangers' Galaxy Gliders, with Mike on Red.

605-NvSS.
-   The Megaship flew through space when the teens called it a night and went to bed; at the time, Carlos was finishing up work on the underside of the red Galaxy Glider, and Andros was alone on the bridge searching galaxies for life.
-   Once everyone else was in bed, Andros detected a lifeform on KO-35 and set a course there.
-   In the morning, with the Megaship still orbiting KO-35 after Andros's departure to the surface to search for Karone, the three teens were making breakfast when Carlos got up and joined them.
-   When Carlos asked where Andros was, the teens didn't know, but T.J. had thought he would've been with Carlos; what exactly T.J. was implying is uncertain.
-   Learning that Andros had gone down to KO-35, Carlos explained to the others that Andros was looking for his long-lost sister, who, if she escaped, wouldn't know that KO-35 had been attacked and abandoned years ago.
-   Worried, Carlos headed down to the planet, telling the others to stay behind to give Andros some space.
-   Soon, Andros brought back a seriously injured Carlos, then went back to KO-35 to keep fighting Ecliptor; the other three went down to help and were soon joined by a weak Carlos.
-   Later, the teens were apparently still in space when Carlos was eventually feeling better.
-   Andros was surprised to learn that Carlos knew about his missing sister, and he agreed to let the others help him find her, as they were a team; Andros felt they made a pretty good team.

606-SatS.
-   The teens were on the bridge when they received an encrypted transmission from NASADA asking them to save eight years of scientific research by recovering data from a satellite that had been shot down over the planet Kalderon; the teens went after the satellite upon realizing that the information from the satellite might lead them to Zordon.
-   The teens' normal positions on the bridge (from the perspective of the rear of the bridge) were Cassie sitting in front left, Andros sitting in front center, Ashley sitting in front right, T.J. standing in rear left, and Carlos standing in rear right.
-   Once near Kalderon, the teens went down to the surface with canteens to drink from on the fairly hot planet.
-   Soon, the teens were attacked by Elgar and Quantrons, but the villains retreated upon hearing a large roar in the distance.
-   Elsewhere, Ashley found a piece of the satellite near the skeleton of what looked like a dinosaur, then the teens soon found the rest of the satellite.
-   Confronted by Astronema and crew, the teens morphed but were defeated and chained together on the ground for giant Clawhammer to eat them.
-   While Alpha fought Clawhammer in the Megazord, initially startling the Rangers as they tried to figure out who was piloting it, Andros freed the Rangers, and they soon got in the Megazord and took control.
-   After punching Clawhammer away from the pit and climbing up, the Megazord kicked Clawhammer in the groin four times in a row, headbutted it twice, then swung it around by its antennae until they snapped off; the Megazord then threw the monster into the lava pit, where it exploded.
-   The Megaship was later flying through space as the morphed Rangers transmitted the data from the three undamaged discs to NASADA.
-   Upon demorphing after the transmission, the teens wondered what could have been on the final, damaged disc; T.J. then suggested a quick vacation on the Simudeck, snowboarding in Switzerland, and they all went.

607-ARAT.
-   Another day, the Megaship was in Earth orbit as the Rangers practiced on the Simudeck just before the four Earthen teens' math midterms at Angel Grove High, which they'd been studying for.
-   The five teens were together at Angel Grove High, and the four teens then went into their classroom, leaving Andros to explore Angel Grove and make some friends.
-   Later that day, the four Rangers ran up to help morphed Andros against Ecliptor as the villain was stomping his head into a mud puddle.
-   Cassie thought to use DECA's new weapon, and Carlos summoned the Quadroblaster.
-   Another day at the Surf Spot, the teens were reviewing the exams they'd gotten back.

608-WPCS.
-   The teens were at school again, probably taking classes until the summer; the reader will note that it was July in 635-SiGo.
-   After the four teens' classes in Angel Grove, Andros showed Carlos and T.J. on the Megaship some images of the new Megatank, parked on a sidewalk somewhere with trees in the background.
-   When Carlos, after Andros's explanation behind the Megatank, added that it looked cool too, Andros shook his head in disdain, making T.J. chuckle.
-   Later, while Cassie was on her date with Lenny, Andros and Carlos were playing chess in a side room of the Surf Spot while Ashley and T.J. watched; they were then called away to stop Elephantitan.
-   To save Cassie, both Andros and Ashley drove the Megatank up through the building, while T.J. and Carlos fought Elephantitan below.
-   Another day in the Surf Spot, Carlos and Andros played pool while the other three watched.

609-CrIn.
-   After some kids' soccer practice, Carlos and Cassie loaded up some equipment into a black Jeep Grand Cherokee which they then rode away in, with Carlos driving.
-   After nightfall, the Megaship was flying through a thunderstorm while Ashley and T.J. excitedly practiced on the Simudeck; Andros was on the bridge when Cassie and Carlos teleported to the ship and entered from the Megalift.
-   Cassie seemed a bit surprised to find that Andros was still collecting storm data.
?   The morning after thousands of Craterites had dropped into the city from the Megaship, the Rangers flew their Galaxy Gliders to the center of the city to fan out from there, but they were then shown unmorphed, walking together as they looked for Craterites.
-   T.J. had them split up, and Cassie and Carlos went one way while the other three went another, with the teens soon using AmScanners.
-   When Cassie and Carlos asked an upset Patrick what was wrong, Patrick said no one would believe him, and Cassie explained it was because of the stories he always told, then the two teens walked him home.
-   Meanwhile, Ashley, T.J., and Andros wandered up to an industrial park, with Andros using an AmScanner.
-   Ashley, hanging behind the others, exchanged glances with a worker who growled at her, and she suddenly realized the van nearby was shaking; she opened the van to discover an identical worker tied up, at which point the workers shimmered into Craterites.
-   After their second Craterite fight at the beach, Carlos realized the disguised Craterites must have been what had spooked Patrick, and he, Cassie, and Andros ran off to check on Patrick.
-   After Carlos had gone another way outside Patrick's apartment, Andros and Cassie were chased into the woods and hopelessly outnumbered by Craterites; meanwhile, the other three Rangers were racing down a road in the Megatank to help, and they would soon arrive to help, with the Megatank not shown.
-   Upon arriving, Carlos handed Andros a reprogrammed Spiral Saber.
-   Later in the Surf Spot, T.J. was telling the teens and Patrick about a suspenseful football game he'd played in.

610-Wasp.
-   Cassie was on the bridge checking the fuel systems when she went down to the forest to check on a disturbance; the location of the others was unknown.
-   As Cassie confronted Waspicable, the other Rangers eventually arrived to blast the monster, but she stopped them, explaining that the monster hadn't destroyed her despite having had the chance.
-   Later, Cassie was helping at young Sherry's birthday party in the park when Waspicable, Ecliptor, Quantrons, and soon Astronema and Sting King attacked; the other Rangers would soon arrive to help.
?   In space, it would be Carlos who instructed Cassie and the others in using their weapons ; then on Earth, it would be his weapon attack which defeated Sting King, after which he, not Andros, would then stand in the center of the Rangers.
-   Later, after Waspicable had flown off upon talking with Cassie, Andros wondered whether the monster would stay good or turn evil, and the teens watched from a hill above as Waspicable, as a speck of light, returned Sherry's balloons to her, delighting her.

611-DDsc.
-   When the Megaship, in Earth orbit, received an emergency recording from the Phantom Ranger, Andros was on the bridge, then when the others came in asking about the emergency message, Ashley was already there to tell them it was a message from the Phantom Ranger, and she then played the message.
-   The video recording showed Phantom crouching over the camera in a jungle, watching out for those around him; he told the Rangers that Dark Specter was holding Zordon on the planet Hercuron, giving its coordinates, and told them to come quickly, as there was very little time; he was then surrounded by Piranhatrons and ended the recording after telling them again to hurry, and Andros had them set a course.
-   When the Megaship approached Hercuron, the Rangers went down and helped Phantom against Ecliptor, but the other villains had already left with Zordon; Andros had Alpha search for a vapor trail, but there was no trace.
-   Alpha told the Rangers of a monster attack on Earth, and Carlos and Andros said they had to go back, but Ashley reminded them they were so close to Zordon; Andros told the teens they had to defend their planet.
-   When Phantom told the Rangers he would go after Zordon, Andros gave an undecided "hmm," at which point Phantom pulled out a disc container and told him that it controlled the Delta Megaship, a mighty weapon which they would need, and that he had to retrieve it immediately, as it was completely unprotected; Andros asked, "But Phantom Ranger, what about--?" but Phantom insisted, "Please, take it."
-   Andros agreed and told the others to get back to Earth while he went after the Delta Megaship.
-   When Andros finally returned with the Delta Megazord, none of the Rangers were familiar with it.
-   Taking his normal seat in the Astro Megazord, Andros introduced the Rangers to the Delta Megazord and Battlizer, then telling them to watch as he activated the Delta Megazord's Gyro Blasters.
-   Soon, the Rangers returned to Hercuron to search for Phantom but found only another hologram device which Andros identified as a communications device; Andros turned it on, and a small hologram of Phantom appeared, clutching his side but speaking with energy in his voice.
-   Phantom's recording spoke, "I knew you'd return, Rangers! But I've left to follow Dark Specter. You must keep searching for Zordon, no matter how difficult the search may be. Until we meet again, Rangers."
-   As the teens were walking away after demorphing, the others consoled a saddened Cassie, but she then went back, hearing the hologram device still active, and listened to a private message for her.

612-GrEv.
-   On a rocky planet with green water ponds and a significant gravitational field, morphed Ashley and Andros trudged along on a small island looking with an AmScanner, feeling like they'd gained a hundred pounds.
-   When T.J. called to check on their search for Dark Specter, Andros reported that the planet was completely deserted.
-   In space on their Galaxy Gliders, Andros and Ashley were quite pleased to be free of that gravity, and they then performed some flip and loop tricks.
-   In the workbay with Carlos and Andros as the Megaship, docked with the docking station in Earth orbit, Ashley used a scanner on the red Galaxy Glider, then the three teens discussed the ray's having turned the yellow Galaxy Glider evil.
-   On the bridge with Cassie, T.J. told DECA to scan the next galaxy for Zordon, but the alarm sounded, and the five teens went down to battle Destructipede after T.J. had told DECA the scan would have to wait.
?   When Destructipede was enlarged downtown while the Rangers were fighting five monsters summoned by Destructipede, Andros had the Rangers continue fighting the five normal-sized monsters despite the destruction of numerous buildings by giant Destructipede at the time.
-   Only after the five defeated monsters had arisen to their feet again did Andros call for the Delta Megazord to fight giant Destructipede.

613-Grma.
-   Another day, the teens were relaxing in Angel Grove; when Carlos found Ashley and her grandmother in the Surf Spot, Ashley pretended he was her boyfriend in an attempt to stop her grandmother's matchmaking.
-   Later in the park with the others after a Ranger battle, Carlos said they couldn't keep pretending to be a couple; T.J. joked that they could, but eventually they'd probably have to get married.
-   On Ashley's and Carlos's date later, the other three teens and Mrs. Hammond watched from the bushes with mini-binoculars as Ashley and Carlos rode a merry-go-round.
-   Later in the Surf Spot, Adelle unamusedly served Ashley and Carlos a milkshake with two straws and gave Ashley a note from Mrs. Hammond telling her to share the drink with him; watching nearby, Mrs. Hammond was delighted, and the three other teens sat with her and laughed.
-   Outside the Surf Spot another day, the teens brought Mrs. Hammond's bags out to a taxi.
-   Ashley apologized about the husband thing not working out, but Mrs. Hammond said with friends like hers, she didn't need one... yet.
-   Mrs. Hammond said goodbye to all of the teens and Adelle, then asked the taxi driver if he was married; the teens and Adelle said goodbye and waved happily as she drove off.

614-BaSt.
-   T.J. (with an AmScanner), Carlos, and Cassie searched a jungle planet for Zordon after having gotten a distress signal which had secretly been sent by a device Ecliptor used in planning an ambush.
-   Cassie spotted what she thought was a Piranhatron footprint in the mud.
-   Suddenly, the three teens were attacked by Quantrons, with Ecliptor nearby; when Carlos was stung on the wrist by a Barillian Bug, the three teens teleported back to the Megaship.
-   The four teens were in the infirmary as Carlos, shivering and his skin covered with prominent veins, lay on the table and described his bug attack.
-   Carlos said he hadn't gotten a good look but that it had been some sort of bug; Andros curiously asked if it felt cold, and Carlos said it did, but Andros said he still wasn't sure whether he recognized the bite.
-   Andros subtlely gestured for T.J. to come into the hall with him, and the two left and spoke seriously in the hall, then left.
-   Andros and T.J. ran through the jungle planet looking for the bug to identify it, but they were confronted by Darkonda, holding a sack over his shoulder and the dead Barillian Bug in his hand, saying perhaps he had what they sought.
-   T.J. and Andros looked at each other, apparently both equally unfamiliar with Darkonda.
-   When asked by T.J., Darkonda said, "Darkonda's my name, and evil's my game."; he then zipped away, and they morphed and flew after him on their Galaxy Gliders.
-   Soon up in a tree, Darkonda cut open another pod, and a Barillian Bug pursued morphed T.J. until Andros shot it down.
-   After examining the dead bug, Andros concluded that it was definitely a Barillian Bug.
-   Andros explained to T.J. that huge swarms of Barillian Bugs had once attacked KO-35; they had been everywhere, stinging without warning; in hours, people stung would turn into Barillian Bug monsters.
-   Their only hope, Andros said, was an antidote developed by scientists on KO-35.
-   On the bridge, Ashley and Cassie, listening to Andros's report from the alien planet, were frightened as Andros told them why they had to go to KO-35 immediately but that the girls first had to restrain Carlos, before he turned into a monster.
-   Hearing a struggle as they approached the infirmary after soon returning to the Megaship, T.J. and Andros ran in and found Ashley and Cassie having been knocked down, with Alpha sitting motionless on a bench beside the med table.
?   Ashley seemed surprised as she told the guys that Carlos had become some sort of insect; perhaps Andros hadn't been specific on what would happen to Carlos.
-   As the teens planned to search the ship for Bug-Carlos, the Megaship streaked away for KO-35.
-   In the workbay, the four teens prepared their Astro Blasters, with Andros having them put on their lowest settings, in hopes of not hurting Carlos.
-   Ashley went to monitor the bridge, T.J. said he and Cassie would check the engine room, and Andros reminded them that he wasn't Carlos anymore.
-   Soon, the teens confronted Bug-Carlos in the engine room, where he attacked them, somehow stinging Cassie on the neck during the struggle before escaping.
-   In the infirmary, the three teens sadly strapped Cassie onto the med table, and she looked back up at them with worry; her arms had been left unrestrained.
-   As they neared KO-35 and T.J. and Andros prepared to go down to KO-35, Andros told Ashley to protect the bridge no matter what, even if it meant she had to shoot.
-   As the guys left, Ashley told them to hurry with the antidote, and she then thought she heard something in the vent above the restrained Cassie but left anyway.
-   In the workbay, T.J. and Andros were confronted by Bug-Carlos, but they dodged his attacks and escaped into their jump tubes.
-   In the hospital on KO-35, Andros found the antidote in a locked cabinet, and when they were attacked by Darkonda, Andros stayed to hold him off as he had T.J. flee and return to the ship with the antidote.
-   When Bug-Carlos and Bug-Cassie forced their way into the bridge and approached Ashley, she pleaded for them to stop, not wanting to shoot them, but T.J., arriving just in time, sprayed them each with mist from the antidote gun.
-   After collapsing, the monsters morphed back into fully-clothed Cassie and Carlos.
-   Helping Cassie up, Alpha said all of their vital signs seemed to be stable.
-   Cassie and Carlos didn't remember much, if anything, but T.J. had them all rush off to help Andros, saying he'd fill them in on the way.
-   Later, after the battle, Andros stood ruminating on a rooftop in the KO-35 city before Ashley had him come back to the ship.

615-TJId.
-   On the Simudeck, the teens played basketball in their workout uniforms on a simulated court in a simulated park; the ball, however, was real.
-   T.J. and Andros were on a team, and the other three were on another team.
-   When the next point would win the game, T.J. reminded Andros about a special play they'd been practicing earlier; using his hands as a springboard, Andros sent T.J. flipping over the three other teens for a slam dunk.
-   DECA announced that they'd reached Brokaya.
-   The teens walked out of the Simudeck in their workout uniforms, then soon teleported down to the planet in their Megaship uniforms.
-   On the planet, Ashley, T.J., and Andros quickly and quietly used a computer interface to set up a satellite dish, an interstellar scanner which would allow them to search for Zordon much more quickly; Andros told them that if anyone saw them, the whole mission was worthless.
-   Meanwhile, Carlos and Cassie were keeping watch, with Carlos using an AmScanner.
-   Andros then shut the keyboard, and the teens rushed off to return to the Megaship, not realizing Darkonda had been watching them.
-   Carlos asked Andros if this interstellar scanner was much faster, and Andros said it could search a whole galaxy (snaps fingers) like that, and that they'd find Zordon long before Dark Specter could steal his powers.
-   Soon, just as the viewscreen showed an image of Dark Specter's spaceship, presumably still piloted by Divatox's forces, Darkonda and Ecliptor destroyed the interstellar scanner on Brokaya before they could get a reading on its location, and the teens went down to investigate.
-   Andros retained a cocky attitude when the Rangers were confronted by Darkliptor.
-   After Ashley and Cassie, failing to dodge Darkliptor's energy bolt, had been frozen in cages of ice, Andros was furious; T.J. tried to hold him back to think through their situation, but Andros, shoving him aside, yelled that he was done thinking.
-   As Darkliptor swung to finish off Andros after he'd been knocked down, T.J. leapt in the way, taking the blow to his chest, then received a staggering blow to the head which cracked his helmet.
-   As Darkliptor approached Andros while he cradled the limp T.J., Carlos tackled Darkliptor aside but was frozen as well while planning for the three of them to retreat.
-   Struggling just before freezing, Carlos told Andros to take T.J. back to the ship, and Andros flew T.J. away on his Galaxy Glider.
-   As the amnesic T.J. later found his way onto the bridge, the Megaship was in orbit around Brokaya.
-   When T.J. and Andros soon teamed up against and defeated Darkliptor, the frozen Rangers were unfrozen.
-   Later in the workbay, Andros, Cassie, and T.J. examined the charred satellite dish of the interstellar scanner, and Andros concluded they wouldn't be able to fix it.
-   Ashley and Carlos came in with the basketball to finish their game; T.J. pretended he didn't remember a game or even what basketball was, making Ashley happily whisper to Carlos, "These guys don't even stand a chance!"
-   Once the two had walked out smiling, T.J. spun the ball on his finger, having tricked them.

616-FDrk.
-   On the bridge one morning, the four teens were preparing various scanners when Andros came in, not having slept well.
-   The Delta Megaship docking station and Megaship were apparently in Earth orbit, in which case Andros had probably spent the night on the Megaship but the four teens had probably slept at their homes and teleported to the ship that morning just before Andros had gotten up.
-   The teens were just leaving, without Andros, to check out a planet in the Dagobah system for a few hours.
-   When Andros returned from Onyx with keycards and knowledge about his sister, the others were already back, and they were wondering where he'd been.
-   Andros told the others about his encounter with Darkonda and said the keycards might've been stolen from Zordon.
-   From a plaza in Angel Grove, Darkonda told Red Ranger to bring him the keycards if he wanted to know where his sister was.
-   After Alpha had verified that the keycards were genuine and had come from Eltar, Andros took the cards and went to the Megalift, but the others went with him.
-   To go down to Earth, the teens took the Megalift from the bridge, rather than using the jump tubes in the next room, and their teleportation streaks flew from the left side of the docking station rather than the Megaship, which was docked on top; when the morphed Rangers appeared downtown, the keycards weren't with them.
-   As Darkonda approached Andros after pounding the Rangers with a superstrength potion, Darkonda suddenly spasmed and oozed with slime, realizing someone must have tampered with the potion.
-   When Ashley wondered who would've poisoned the strength potion, T.J. guessed, "Probably only half the universe."

617-RMVy.
-   Once Alpha had learned of a weapon on Ganymede while the Astro Delta Megazord was being trashed by giant Darkonda and his spawn monster, the Rangers used their last remaining bit of power to fly into space in the Delta Megaship after Alpha had sent the keycards to Ashley.
-   As the Rangers found themselves in a hangar inside the secret moonbase on Ganymede after the Delta Megaship had landed inside the base, Astronema and Ecliptor appeared with Quantrons to block their path to a set of doors ahead.
-   During the fight with Quantrons and Ecliptor, Ashley nearly lost the keycards, but Cassie recovered them.
-   Andros opened the doors, and the Rangers began running through; when Cassie was the last one heading for the doors, Astronema threw her boomerang, knocking Cassie down and the cards from her hand, but Cassie grabbed them again and leapt through the closing doors just in time to seal the villains out.
-   Upon obtaining new keycards and beholding the five Mega Vehicles, the Rangers were awed, not having seen anything like them before.
-   Ashley figured that Zordon had hidden the Mega Vehicles there, knowing that one day there would be an emergency and they would need them; Andros noted, "Well, we need them right now!"
-   As the Rangers launched in the Mega Vehicles, Cassie, Ashley, and Carlos were all quite excited; T.J. was a bit anxious lifting off in Mega V-3, and Andros was still trying to get the hang of the controls.
-   Later, some time after the Mega Voyager had destroyed Darkonda and helped the mangled and powerless Astro Megazord up, the Astro Megaship and Delta Megaship were back in the docking station in orbit.
-   On the Megaship, T.J., Cassie, and Alpha analyzed the damage in the engine room; on the bridge, Andros and Carlos were examining damaged circuits under the bridge controls.
-   When DECA said something in her low, garbled voice after Andros had learned of the engine circuits and scanning circuits being gone, he said first they had to fix DECA.
?   Ashley was working on tubes hanging from the ceiling before she checked the controls and said everything on Earth was still quiet, but how she would've known this with the scanning circuits ruined is unknown.

618-TBTR.
-   One Friday night, the teens were manning their stations on the repaired bridge, with the Megaship apparently in orbit, as Alpha showed them a visual of Storm Blaster being shot at by Velocifighters in space.
-   The four teens were surprised and excited that Storm Blaster had escaped, but Andros had never heard of a Storm Blaster before.
-   In the warehouse where the Rangers had been chained up after defending Storm Blaster against Astronema's forces, Lionizer told the Rangers to lower the Megaship's shields, but Ashley called out to tell DECA to keep the shields activated.
-   After crashing into the warehouse driving Storm Blaster, Justin, as the Blue Turbo Ranger, asked if the Rangers were all right; Ashley exclaimed, "Justin, it's you!"
-   Fighting Quantrons, Justin freed the Rangers, and the six fought the Quantrons together.
-   Justin hadn't known that T.J. had become the Blue Space Ranger, apparently having been kept quite uninformed of the Rangers' adventures.
-   As the Rangers regrouped against Lionizer, Andros told Justin that they needed more firepower; as Justin agreed, Storm Blaster came forward to blast Lionizer, and the Blue Rangers would add their lasers to overpower the monster's energy beam.
?   When confronted by giant Lionizer downtown one night, T.J. told Justin to wait until he saw this, and Andros said he'd like it; the five Rangers then summoned just Mega V-1, which Andros piloted until calling for the Mega Voyager.
-   As the Rangers joined Justin after destroying Lionizer, Carlos told him it was great to see him.
-   Explaining how he'd known they'd needed him, Justin joked that Storm Blaster had come to his house and practically kidnapped him.
-   T.J. thanked Storm Blaster for its help but asked about Lightning Cruiser, and Storm Blaster flashed its lights.
-   Justin told everyone to hop in, as Storm Blaster could take them, but Carlos thanked him and said they had their own rides.
-   Justin was awed as the Rangers flew through space alongside Storm Blaster on their Galaxy Gliders.
-   Andros told Justin, calling him by name and speaking in a friendly manner, that if he liked, maybe someday they could teach him to ride a Galaxy Glider; Justin said they were pretty cool but that for now he would stick with his good friend Storm Blaster.
-   After defeating the Piranhatrons on the desert planet and freeing Lightning Cruiser, the six teens were unmorphed as they spoke together.
-   Ashley hugged Justin, and he remarked it was just like old times, saying he thought about the teens a lot, wondering if they were okay; T.J. assured him they were fine.
-   Ashley dragged the silent Andros forward and introduced him as being from "the space colony"; Justin, impressed, said it was nice to meet him, and Andros thanked him for his help.
-   Justin began to say, "Once a Ranger," and Cassie completed, "always, always a Ranger."
-   Justin realized he had to get home, and Storm Blaster offered him a ride; once inside, Justin told the teens, "If you ever need me again, I'm always here," then drove off and streaked away once the teens had waved goodbye.

619-IOBS.
-   The teens celebrated Ashley's seventeenth birthday at a table in the park.
-   After blowing out the candles on her cake, Ashley wouldn't tell Carlos what she'd wished for; Cassie could guess, and the girls looked at Andros sitting by himself, staring into space, and Ashley chuckled.
-   Putting on a hat, Ashley thanked everyone for the great gifts, then found Carlos's present of a fire extinguisher, making Cassie frown and T.J. smack his arm; Carlos defensively replied that everyone needed one.
-   Ashley took the coveted corner cake piece from Carlos over to Andros.
-   Dark Specter told Astronema the Rangers' scan for Zordon was getting them much too close and they must not discover his location before he'd drained his powers.
-   Disguised as Ashley, with the real Ashley having been kidnapped, Astronema had the teens get back to the Megaship, and they were soon in uniform doing various tasks across the ship.
-   On Megadeck 1, Astronema accidentally stumbled upon the workbay and was spotted by Cassie before she could leave.
-   Cassie asked for a hand; with various devices at the table, Cassie was using a gun-shaped scanner or tool on an Astro Blaster, with three other Astro Blasters in a stand nearby.
-   Cassie asked for an AmScanner, but Astronema didn't know which one it was.
-   Behind Cassie, Astronema was then holding her staff, aiming it at Cassie.
-   In the workout room, Carlos was benchpressing a rod when Astronema came in and asked to help, so he had her add some weight.
-   Astronema turned up the weight way too much, pinning the rod painfully to his chest, then pulled out her staff and aimed it at him.
-   On the bridge at Ashley's station, Andros told T.J., who was at the "Operations & Safety" console, that he was still worried about that surveillance problem (secretly caused by Astronema's melting of a DECA camera elsewhere on that deck), and he tried calling Cassie and Carlos but got no reply, so T.J. went to check it out.
-   After finding the melted DECA camera, T.J. found "Ashley" in a storage room on Megadeck 4 and asked about the others.
-   As Astronema tried to hurry him out, T.J. heard Carlos groaning behind a bin, and when he went to help, Carlos awoke and was alarmed to see "Ashley" aiming her staff at them behind T.J.
-   Astronema then entered the bridge; casually scanning the wall consoles, she pretended not to know the others' whereabouts, saying they were hanging around somewhere.
-   Meanwhile, the three captured teens were all conscious, hanging upside-down and bound in another storage room.
-   Astronema crept up with her staff behind Andros as he worked at Ashley's station but quickly hid it when he stood to check out the situation.
-   On the monitor within the double hemisphere area of the "Computer Systems" console on the bridge was a banded orange and brown planet, with the text "Scanning" and "P-497201."
-   Soon, Alpha wandered into a storage room on Megadeck 6 looking for the teens; hearing voices, Alpha opened a dark sub-closet and found the three missing teens hanging upside-down from the ceiling.
-   Joining Andros at a power plant where two Astronemas were struggling, they were just as confused as Andros.
-   Andros got an idea and called out to Ashley, "Let's rocket!"; one Astronema did her pre-morph hand gesture, but the other fumbled with her arms, trying to copy the hand gestures.
-   After their victory against Body Switcher, the Rangers were in the workbay, where they took off their helmets, and the four Rangers went to their lockers while Andros slipped out to secretly check on Zhane in the hidden healing chamber off the engine room.

620-SvSv.
-   On a desert planet called Kadix, the teens were collecting samples of certain pods for an unknown reason.
-   Andros told the teens, "Okay, guys, let's just find one more and that should do it for now."
-   With each of the teens wearing a translucent black sack, full of what looked like wood shavings, and carrying a spade, the teens dug up a good sample, a pod buried in the ground with small vine-like tendrils which had been sticking above the ground.
-   Ashley put the pod into Andros's sack, and he told them to get back to the ship and put it with the others.
-   As the teens walked away, four desert trees turned into brown-cloaked humanoid beings, and dozens of the beings suddenly surrounded the teens silently.
-   Andros, unfamiliar with the beings but agreeing with the others that they didn't look friendly, had them flee, and all of the teens but Andros discarded their sacks to run back to the Megaship.
?   Once they'd gotten somewhat close to the ship, the teens stopped, and Andros had them morph; afterwards, as they fought the beings, Andros slung his sack around like a weapon, apparently not concerned about damaging its contents.
-   Carlos said there were too many of them, and Andros agreed, deciding they should get out of there.
-   Just outside the Megaship, Andros gave Cassie his sack, telling her to get "them" inside; T.J., then Andros, began shooting the aliens to hold them back, then Andros finally sealed the hatch.
-   As the ship flew away with the unmorphed teens soon at their stations on the bridge, Andros learned of an engine malfunction and had the others go to the engine room while he remained on the bridge.
-   After the four teens had restored the engines, Cassie watched as the secret doorway panel in the corner of the engine room sparked, and the hidden door to the healing chamber opened.
-   As Cassie checked it out and Carlos followed, T.J. told Ashley they'd have to do a complete maintanance check on the electrical connections, remarking "those things" had sure caused a lot of damage.
-   Carlos called Ashley and T.J. over after seeing the cryogenic tube inside; Cassie wiped off a bit of the frost on the tube and saw the Silver Ranger lying within.
-   Entering, Andros explained it was his old friend Zhane, who had been critically injured saving him during Dark Specter's attack on KO-35 two years ago.
-   DECA interrupted, having completed the damage reports, before Andros could answer why he hadn't told them about Zhane.
-   On the bridge, Andros remembered the sample, and cheerfully Cassie went to get it from the cargo bay.
-   In the cargo area, Cassie found the broken pod and was attacked by the fully-grown Lunatick monster.
-   Returning to the bridge after sucking Lunatick out through the cargo bay doors, Cassie told the others that the pod from the sample they'd brought back had turned into a monster.
-   As Lunatick attacked panels while clinging to the ship's hull, engine power was failing, and the Megaship began to fall back toward Kadix.
-   With the bridge lights flickering, the Megaship crash-landed on Kadix; as the ship slid to a stop, the bridge was dark, and the teens appeared unconscious, but the lights came back on, and the teens were okay.
-   DECA announced that hostile aliens were approaching, and T.J. said they were going to have to make external repairs to the hull.
-   Morphed, the Rangers emerged from the sliding door of the Megaship with their weapons and spotted Lunatick; he shouted something in an alien language, and dozens of the cloaked beings rushed forward to attack.
-   The Rangers fought the beings while at least holding their weapons, if not using them.
-   During the fight, several beings boarded the Megaship before Andros had DECA seal all doors.
-   Without warning, Kadix beings flew from the Megaship's space hatch, and morphed Zhane emerged.
-   Astounded by Zhane's recovery, Andros had the six Rangers retreat into the Megaship when Lunatick grew to giant size.
-   Later, as the five teens approached the bridge after the battle, Zhane was telling Alpha a story about a giant monster grabbing him and lifting him up.
-   Slipping his Digimorpher out of his belt and clicking it open, the helmetless Zhane described grabbing the Digimorpher and calling his Silver Cycle.
-   Amused, Andros corrected, "As I recall, I was the one he grabbed and lifted up."
-   Smiling, Zhane told Alpha he'd have to finish the story later, and Alpha said he couldn't wait.
-   Andros introduced his friends, and T.J., Cassie, and Carlos told Zhane their names.
-   Startling forward as though enchanted by Zhane, Ashley stepped forward and extended her hand, introducing herself.
?   Enchanted in return, Zhane remarked that he'd never met a female Power Ranger before, but why he completely ignored Cassie is unknown; he then told Ashley it was nice to meet her and kissed her hand.

621-Envy.
-   The teens and Zhane were on the Megaship in Earth orbit.
-   Andros was walking down a hallway, trying to think of how to ask Ashley on a date, when he stumbled upon Zhane standing very close to Ashley in the workbay, with his hands on her shoulders behind her as he attempted to teach her telekinesis.
-   T.J. and Cassie were at their stations on the bridge when Carlos happened to be walking in during DECA's announcement of a disturbance at the beach.
-   T.J. called the others to tell them of trouble at the beach, and they met up at the workbay and then morphed and teleported down to Earth.
-   Upon involuntarily demorphing during the fight with Crocotox, Zhane, hidden from the others' line of sight, ran off.
-   As the Rangers looked for Zhane after Crocotox's destruction, thinking Zhane might have been stunned, the unmorphed Zhane walked out and waved.
-   Carlos warned Zhane not to demorph there, as someone might see him, and Zhane replied, "Oh yeah, sorry."
-   Agreeing with Carlos, Ashley held Zhane's hand with both of hers and told him he had some great moves and asked if he could teach them a few.
-   Just then, Darkonda's image appeared in the sky and told them, "Rangers, you'll be busy forever destroying my army of Crocotox! I have thousands more where that one came from! Soon the Earth will be mine!"
-   Back on the Megaship, the six teens were in the workbay, with Zhane and Carlos looking at the star chart screen while the others were at their lockers.
-   T.J. planned to see Ashley on the bridge; Carlos went to his locker for a while before joining the others on the bridge, and meanwhile, Ashley made herself a brownie which Zhane took and ate before they went to the bridge together.
-   Zhane suspected Darkonda had to have some sort of lab and had Ashley help him start scanning.
-   On the bridge, Cassie worked at Carlos's station, but as Zhane sat at Cassie's station and Ashley went to "Communications," Cassie switched to T.J.'s station, with T.J. at "Operations & Safety."
-   As the teens scanned for the source of Darkonda's hologram that had appeared on Earth, the source vector data had been computed, but the distance was unknown.
-   Moments after Ashley directed the scan toward quadrant 989.2, DECA detected multiple lifeform energies, making the teens suspect they'd found Darkonda's lab.
-   Talking with Andros in the workbay, Zhane suspected Darkonda had more of the monsters, even a whole hatchery.
-   As Andros and Zhane came onto the bridge, the others told Andros they thought they knew where Darkonda's lab was, as DECA had located it on the planet Dekata 5.
-   As the teens prepared to leave, Ashley cheerfully told Zhane to come on, but Andros said they'd handle this.
-   Carlos pointed out they could use all the help they could get against Darkonda, but Andros forcefully stated Zhane stayed; as the others began to leave with confusion, Zhane lied that he wasn't feeling so hot.
?   The five Rangers flew down to Dekata 5 on their Galaxy Gliders as the planet was now below the Megaship, but no travel time to the planet had been shown; adding further confusion was that Dekata 5 looked exactly like Earth.
-   When the Rangers were trapped in a strong net, Darkonda told them his plan of conquering the Earth with his army of Crocotoxes and becoming the next ruler of the universe; as the Rangers were blasted, Andros realized they needed Zhane.
-   Soon, as morphed Zhane sped in riding his Silver Cycle, he raced past the blue Crocotox's energy barrier, and T.J. called out to tell Zhane to find Darkonda's lab, and Zhane said he was picking up a signal.
-   Shortly afterward, Andros got an idea and used the Battlizer's laser attack to cut them free from the net.
-   After the Rangers had destroyed the giant blue Crocotox with the Astro Delta Megazord, Andros was deperate in looking for Zhane as he fought the red Crocotox somewhere below; they presumably didn't see as Zhane involuntarily demorphed immediately after destroying the monster.

622-SvSc.
-   As they happened to walk by the infirmary the next day, Andros and Cassie overheard Alpha telling Zhane, "Ay yi yi, I'm afraid it's serious."; they listened, hidden around the corner, as Zhane pressed for more information and Alpha replied, "This is bad. According to my calculations, you don't have very much time!"
-   Shocked, thinking that Zhane was dying, Andros and Cassie left to go tell the others, but had they stayed a moment longer, they would've realized Alpha had been talking about Zhane's morphing powers.
-   Andros and Cassie prepared to tell the others the really bad news on the bridge when Zhane came in from the lift with a panel device; he was confused by their concern.
-   Andros told Zhane he'd been working too hard, but Zhane replied hard work wasn't going to kill him.
-   Between tapping at his panel device, Zhane looked at the "Computer Systems" console, then the display panel for the front center seat.
-   Confusing Zhane, Andros had Zhane sit, and Cassie put his feet up, with Andros taking the panel device.
-   When DECA announced the Praying Mantis's attack on Earth, the teens began to rush out; when Zhane started to get up, Andros and Cassie made him sit, with Cassie telling him just to take it easy.
-   During the battle on Earth, Praying Mantis asked the Rangers why they didn't call their friend, but Carlos retorted that they didn't need his help.
-   After ramming Praying Mantis on his Silver Cycle, Zhane got off his parked cycle and soon wielded his Silverizer against the monster despite Andros and Cassie's intentions for him to stay behind them.
-   After Zhane had been blasted, Andros wanted Zhane to stay behind while they handled it, but Zhane went forward alone, saying he could handle it.
-   As Zhane did a final slash with his Silverizer after blasting Praying Mantis, he was apparently slashed back, stunning him, and Cassie and Andros had him take it easy.
-   As the Rangers took over, Zhane ran off.
-   After Praying Mantis had retreated, the Rangers looked around and called out for Zhane, and he cheerfully trotted up unmorphed.
-   Zhane said he was fine, asking why he wouldn't be, and as he put his arm around Ashley and T.J. patted him on the back, Andros told Cassie they had to tell the others about Zhane's condition.
-   Later in the workbay, the five teens ate a meal at the table, having been called there by Andros there to talk, and Andros and Cassie told the teens the shocking news.
-   Walking from the bridge to a doorway across the hall, Zhane heard the conversation as Cassie noted Zhane had been demorphing as soon as the fight was over, and Carlos assumed he was too weak.
-   Grinning devilishly, Zhane remarked to himself, "So that's why Cassie and Andros are acting so freaky. (chuckles and rubs hands) They think I'm dying!"
-   Ashley remarked, startled, that Zhane was acting so brave, and as Carlos wondered what they could do, Zhane walked in, curious, and they quickly catered to him.
-   When Cassie asked how he was, Zhane cleared his throat and guessed he was fine.
-   T.J. gave Zhane his seat, Cassie poured Zhane some juice, and Carlos offered him some of his spinach from a silver plate, but Zhane said he hated spinach.
-   When Zhane asked for some pie, Ashley put a piece on a plate for him, but Cassie argued with her that it wasn't good for him, with Ashley arguing that that's what he wanted; meanwhile, Zhane watched with amusement.
?   The pie was actually quite cold and hard.
-   Later, as Zhane was meeting with Alpha in the infirmary again, Praying Mantis attacked again; DECA volunteered to alert Zhane, but the teens adamantly told her not to, since he needed to rest.
-   Parting, Andros ordered DECA not to tell Zhane.
-   The teens ran into Zhane in the hallway and told him they were going down for only a minor disturbance on Earth.
-   As the five teens prepared to take the jump tubes, Zhane offered to go with them, but Andros told him to stay and take it easy; Zhane tried to tell them the truth, but they rushed off down the tubes.
-   Fighting the monster after eventually arriving, Zhane was grappled and lifted into the air by the monster while the Rangers were busy fighting Quantrons.
-   The Rangers soon broke free and all ran forward, but they were too late, as the claws holding Zhane up exploded, apparently taking Zhane with them.
-   The Rangers all screamed in agony, thinking Zhane had been killed.
-   Andros collapsed to his knees, saying, "He was my best friend, and I've lost him again!"; he then angrily stood, and the Rangers charged but were blasted back.
-   Andros furiously said it couldn't end like this and they couldn't give up, and Cassie sobbingly said Zhane would want them to keep fighting.
-   As Praying Mantis charged, Zhane flew in on his silver glider, knocking the monster out of the air.
-   Some time after the monster's destruction, the teens, with Alpha, were upset in the workbay that Zhane had lied to them.
-   When Zhane came in, the teens pretended to pamper him, and Cassie gave him some juice which he spat out because it was spinach juice, given to him since he was so sick.
-   Zhane realized they'd caught on and said it was just a joke and that he'd been planning to tell them eventually.
-   When Zhane admitted he'd never felt better, Andros amusedly gave him the cleaning supplies to clean the Megaship top to bottom.

623-Date.
-   The five Rangers were fighting Horror Bull in a plaza downtown one morning when Zhane soon drove up to confront Astronema nearby; he would remain uninvolved in the five Rangers' fight.
-   After Zhane had secretly rescued Astronema and taken her to a jungle to care for her at a campsite, the teens were in the workbay later in the day while Zhane was away sulking in his quarters.
-   T.J. and Carlos were practicing some blocks while Andros and Ashley were using some scanner-like devices and Cassie was reading the newspaper; on the table was a bowl of fruit.
-   After reading the classifieds, Cassie saw a full-page ad for the movie Star Crossed Lovers and excitedly announced that it was playing in town; Ashley gasped with joy, having wanted to see that, and excitedly said they had to go, grabbing Andros's apple from him in her excitement.
-   As Ashley and then Cassie began to drag Andros off, Carlos glanced at the ad and refused, but Cassie smacked her fists into her palm playfully and said the guys had picked the movie last time, and Andros agreed.
-   When T.J. asked about Zhane, Ashley excitedly said they'd go ask him, and she tossed Andros back his apple before she and Cassie ran off to drag Zhane from his quarters.
-   Later, as the six teens came out of the movie in casual clothes, Carlos remarked to T.J., apparently amazed, "That was so romantic," and the girls and Andros chuckled, with the girls having known the guys would like it.
-   As Zhane joined the teens after staying behind to help a teenaged girl (secretly Astronema in the form of Karone) with her books, purple energy bolts from behind struck nearby, sending people running and the teens ducking behind things.
-   While everyone was distracted, a red arrow with a note on it shot into the tree Zhane was hiding behind, and he read it privately.
-   Later, the five teens ate at an outdoor cafe while talking about the movie; Cassie had known the guys would like it, but Andros remarked that it needed more explosions.
-   Alpha called the teens to tell them of another Horror Bull attacking, and they left to fight him in the quarry, where they discovered their weapons were useless against him.
-   After Ecliptor had retreated and Horror Bull had grown after being defeated by Zhane, Zhane hopped onto his Silver Cycle and told the others he had to go, then raced off between the giant monster's legs.
-   Later on the bridge, the teens argued privately about which was to go and talk to the depressed Zhane, who sat despondent at a center seat.
-   Ashley was shoved forward, and she awkwardly asked Zhane if he was okay, but he didn't reply.
-   Andros, shoved forward next, agreed that Zhane looked a little bummed, but he still didn't answer.
-   Cassie, shoved next, smoothly told him, "You can talk to us about ANNNything," but he merely looked at her and quietly said "thank you" before walking out.

624-ZhnD.
-   On the desert planet Centaur B, Zhane and Andros were in brown cloaks in a fierce sandstorm wearing facemasks, with Zhane using a scanner to lead them to the first of several energy sources the teens had detected.
-   When Zhane suggested that the others, monitoring from the Megaship in orbit, check out the second source, T.J. said Alpha couldn't track them down there since the conditions were too severe, but Andros said not to worry, as they'd keep in contact.
-   As Alpha handed out facemasks, Ashley remarked that Dark Specter would have to be crazy to send Zordon to a place like that, but Carlos said something down there was definitely giving off energy, and they ran to the jump tubes to find out what.
-   Then in the desert, with the four wearing cloaks and masks like Andros and Zhane, T.J. said his AmScanner was detecting an energy source nearby.
-   T.J. got a strong reading just over the rocks, but Cassie had him split up from the others to look at patches of coral growing on a rock, which Cassie thought was odd, since there weren't any oceans on the planet.
-   As they went to rejoin the others, T.J. and Cassie were held up by two Rebel soldiers with blasters, and their AmScanners were taken; the general known as Yatru brought in the captured Carlos and Ashley as well and had the four taken away.
-   Elsewhere, Zhane and Andros had discovered false readings but were unable to contact the others.
-   A Rebel guard locked the four teens in a cell in the Rebels' underground colony.
-   Through a cell window, the teens could see people being carried around on stretchers, and through another window was an infirmary chamber where many people were sick from a coral disease; one man who was just carried in was initially covered with white foam on his shoulder which suddenly grew into giant coral coverings; other people had coral growths and even clawlike arms.
-   Ecliptor and the Quantrons soon attacked Zhane and Andros in the desert, and they fought back well before running off tho find the others.
-   Underground, Yatru presented to leaders Kinwon and Taikwa the four handcuffed teens, who wore tan flight suits with Ranger-colored undershirts and five-square Ranger badges; Yatru insisted these were the spies responsible for turning their people into coral.
-   When T.J. claimed innocence, Yatru replied that they'd been on the surface with surveillance equipment, showing Kinwon a confiscated AmScanner.
-   Kinwon told Yatru to let them speak, and Carlos insisted they were merely tracking an energy source; Kinwon wondered why a search party would come to Centaur B, saying the planet was nothing but an ill-tempered rock.
-   T.J. said they were looking for someone, and when this received only unmoved murmuring from the crowd of Rebels, Ashley nodded to him, and he declared that they were Power Rangers; this surprised the people a bit, at which point Yatru violently pretended to take something from behind Ashley, a small canister.
-   The teens had identified themselves to the Rebels, and the Rebels would later refer to the teens, as "Power Rangers" rather than "the Power Rangers," indicating a seldom-seen awareness of multiple Power Ranger teams in the universe.
-   Yatru smashed the canister against a wall, and the liquid inside turned into white foam, which then turned into a cluster of coral.
-   Ashley insisted the canister had been planted, but Yatru declared that they were guilty as charged and ordered for them to be taken away to be destroyed.
-   Kinwon argued that this had not been a trial; Yatru insisted they were destroying their people, and Taikwa asked Kinwon how much more evidence he needed, but Kinwon insisted that their guilt was not for Yatru to decide; if they threw out their laws, chaos would reign.
-   Kinwon told Yatru he would hold him personally responsible if any of the teens were harmed, and Yatru grudgingly had the teens taken away.
-   On the surface, Andros told Alpha they'd lost contact with the others, but Alpha said the atmosphere was too dense for the ship's scanners, so Zhane had them keep heading for the second energy source, which was where the others had been heading before they'd lost contact.
-   Using tools of some sort, T.J. and Cassie chipped away at the rock holding a bar on one side of their cell, and the four soon escaped through the hole once the bar was removed.
-   Upon reaching a dead end in the tunnel, the teens were startled by a coral-covered hand reaching from around the corner, but they quickly discovered it was a barely-conscious Kinwon, having been struck by the coral plague.
-   Yatru and guards confronted the teens, and Yatru declared that they'd gotten Kinwon.
-   Later, the teens were in front of an angry mob who all wanted the destruction of the spies.
-   Yatru ordered for them to be taken to the surface and destroyed, but the cloaked and masked Zhane and Andros stormed in and ordered them to be released; Yatru said they were more spies and told the guards to capture them, but the two pulled Astro Blasters and aimed them at the guards.
-   Andros declared that they weren't spies, and nor were the four teens; he and Zhane then removed their masks as he declared they were Power Rangers, stunning the crowd.
-   Taikwa knew Andros and Zhane, and Andros was surprised to see her there; she explained that they had been in hiding since escaping from KO-35.
-   Yatru insisted that the teens were spies and ordered for them to be destroyed, but Andros and Zhane again aimed their Astro Blasters at the guards; the guards were confused and reluctant to act, so Andros had them lower their Astro Blasters.
-   Frustrated, Yatru said he'd destroy them himself if he had to, and Coralizer stormed in.
-   As the guards aimed their weapons at
