The Gorma Three Stooges return and challenge Shoji to a game of baseball
Tropes
- A Day in the Limelight: Shoji
- Absurdly High-Stakes Game: A baseball game with the losing team's caps rigged to explode and anything goes.
- An Offer You Can't Refuse: The Gorma Three Stooges threaten use Telephone Teacher's power to constantly plague the town with ringing phones if the Dairangers refuse to accept their challenge.
- Anime Chinese Girl: Rin dresses up like on to break Kamikaze's concentration, beaming her and Kazu as a result.
- Baseball Episode / Breather Episode:
- Batman Gambit: The Gorma Three Stooges rigged their caps with Enlargement Bombs instead of regular explosives.
- Big Damn Heroes: Kiba Ranger arrives to substitute for Ryu Ranger when he gets injured.
- Call-Back: The episode ends with Gorma Three Stooges limping away in defeat.
- Home-Run Hitter: General Kamikaze.
- I Lied: The Gorma Three Stooges lied about the Dairangers' caps not being rigged with explosives.
- Oh, Crap!: Kamikaze's ball embedded into Kazu's bat, Kazu responds with "oh my god".
- Shout-Out: The teams' logos are similar to the two Baseball teams: San Francisco Giants for the Gorma Three Stooges and the Los Angeles Dodgers for the Dairangers, Shoji wearing a Dodgers jacket throughout this episode.
- Sympathy for the Devil: Subjverted. Shoji accepted the Gorma Three Stooges' challenge out of pity, but that mercy is through out the window upon learning they lied to him.
