* BothSidesHaveAPoint: In the beginning of the special, Zack and Billy both make valid points about whether they should tell Minh everything after Trini dies. While Zack makes a good point about how they honor the rules for a Power Ranger that Zordon taught, including keeping their identities secret, Billy also makes a valid argument about how Minh needs to know the truth and how rules can be broken if it’s for a reason.

* DragonTheirFeet: Robo-Rita is taken out by Billy's Power Lance before Robo-Minotaur and Robo-Snizzard are dealt with. [[spoiler:But it's subverted as Robo-Rita was either only temporarily disabled or playing possum while the Rangers dealt with her minions, and rises again to finalize her plan.]]

* HeroKiller: Robo-Rita proves much more dangerous than her original self by outright killing Trini. She intends to follow up by going back in time to kill the Rangers before they were chosen by Zordon.

* PocketProtector: [[spoiler:When Minh jumps in to [[TakingTheBullet protect Billy from the same spell that killed her mother]]]], the Power Morpher seemed to have protected her from getting outright disintegrated unlike Trini. However, it's implied that Trini's spirit also played a part in protecting her daughter, as well as Minh's revival soon after.

Added DiffLines:

* RejectedByTheEmpathicWeapon: Minh is the first person to reveal when you break one of Zordon's other rules ("keep your identity secret" being the only one that was broken on a recurring basis). When one attempts to use a Power Morpher for personal gain (Minh avenging Trini's death), the ''morpher itself'' will refuse to work, a decidedly dangerous scenario considering the power is meant to be used to fight things normal humans cannot handle. [[spoiler:Minh later saves Billy from a similar blast of energy that killed Trini, and, in response, the morpher not only protects Minh, it unlocks itself so that she can become the new Yellow Ranger.]]

* NoOntologicalInertia: As is the way with ''Power Rangers'', the monster of the week's powers wear off when they get destroyed. [[spoiler:Destroying Snizzard removes his paralyzing snakes, allowing the other Rangers to free their friends. However, it's also averted since destroying Rita doesn't restore the captured Rangers back to human form. They are changed back off-screen once the film is over.]]
