** Slippery Shark was able to break Jason and Tommy's camaraderie with a spell and almost defeated the two strongest rangers on the team at the time, but for whatever reason didn't even try to use that ability.

The Ranger teens hang out at Angel Grove Lake, where Rocky is working as a lifeguard. Lord Zedd is inspired by a young boy named Dougie's fear of monsters in the water, and recreates some of his (and Rita's) more sinister water-based monsters. Slippery Shark, Piranhtishead, Toxic Goo-fish, and Commander Crayfish are reborn to wreak havoc. Even if the Rangers manage to defeat these monsters again, can they stop Zedd's newest creation, Tube Monster, the white & blue stripped innertube-based monstrosity? And can Dougie overcome his fears to save Bulk & Skull's lives?

* AdultsAreUseless: Downplayed; Steve, Rocky's fellow lifeguard, didn't even notice Bulk and Skull's predicament until Dougie had mostly pulled them to shore because he was too busy helping a little girl apply sunblock.

** Goofish was able to make Billy almost wet himself in fear due to his ichthyophobia (with Rita amplifying his terror levels) but couldn't this time due to Billy having since conquered his fear.
** Slippery Shark was able to break Jason and Tommy's camaraderie with a spell and almost defeated the two strongest rangers on the team at the time, but for whatever reason didn't.
** Commander Crayfish had a full squad of Mutant Rangers backing him up last time and was able to put up a decent struggle against Jason by himself but has none of that advantage here even with the other monsters helping him.
** Pirantishead has the biggest one of all. He was the first monster that Zedd created and was able to turn the Dinozords on the Rangers for a good while which forced the team to acquire the Thunderzords in order to stand a chance.
