* IWarnedYou: Diabolico tells Ryan he'll play if he walks away from him.

* ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated: Everyone thought Ryan died in the car crash. Except for Captain Mitchell, who remembers watching in horror as Diabolico's spirit comes in to save Ryan from falling to his death from the cliff — only to raise him so that his mind is poisoned, is added to the list of henchmen, and so that he turns against his father and sister.

* LongLostSibling: Ryan, Captain Mitchell's son, and Dana's older brother.
* NoOneCouldSurviveThat: During a fight with the Titanium Ranger, the Lightspeed Rangers are equipped with the V-Lancers, basically lances equipped with a gun mode. They nail the Titanium Ranger with a combined blast which, by rights, ought to have killed him. However, he's more or less fine, prompting Carter to invoke this trope in his incredulity.
** It's also part of the season being DarkerAndEdgier. NeverSayDie is still in effect, but their reaction makes it clear they had intended and expected the blast they'd just delivered to a ''human enemy'' to be fatal. They were all prepared to fire a second volley when Captain Mitchell ordered them to stand down, and were angry that they'd had to let the opponent get away until he revealed that Ryan was his son. (Considering how close he came to beating them, and how his manner of calling the Rangers out tended to be to fire his ax-blaster at random, it's understandable. But still, at the time, such happening in ''PowerRangers'' was completely unthinkable.)
