TraumaCongaLine that initial breaks the SpoiledBrat Summer down, prior to the events that would later build her up into the self-sufficient Power Ranger that she is in the present day.
** First, she plans out the perfect "surprise" birthday party for herself, via Andrews, all in preparation for her parents' promised arrival.
** Next, her heart is dashed when it's revealed that her parents reneged on their promise, dropped off the Landsdown Black Diamond as a birthday gift, using a delivery ''helicopter'' no less, and remained in Paris doing whatever. Though she tries shrugging it off to her friends, this actually leaves her devastated.
** Now crying in her room, alone and away from the other party goers, a missile strike goes off nearby and a frantic Brie plays a radio broadcast about Venjix's now-ongoing assault against humanity. When a fearful Summer calls out for Andrews, she gets no response other than from Brie telling her that [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere the servants have all fled]]. Summer protests that Andrews would never do that, but with her next call as unanswered as the first, she takes her birthday gift and vacates the room with Brie, all while the strikes get louder, closer, and more frequent...
** Out in the open with Brie and the other party friends, they and Summer try to flag down passing vehicles who are fleeing the area. They miss one, but they manage to stop another that was right behind it. However, all of Summer's party friends, Brie included, get on first, leaving no room for Summer. When Summer tries to jump into the back of the now moving vehicle, [[FairWeatherFriend Brie]] [[KickTheDog callously pushes Summer out and onto the ground]], leaving her behind to run for the vehicle in vain as a Grinder Drone soars and losses fire nearby.
*** And all that was just in ''Part 1''. [[Recap/PowerRangersRPMS1E9RangerYellowPart2 Part 2]] continues this exploration.

* ParentalNeglect: A big point is made about Mr. and Mrs. Landsdown's neglectful behavior, prioritizing their own endeavors over raising or even visiting their only child on her birthday. This has clearly been a point of contempt for Summer throughout her life, who threw her perfect birthday party in anticipation for their arrival, leaving her crying alone in her bedroom when it's made clear they're not showing up even after promising they'd do so. The fact that they do show up in the present day when they want something of her, interrupting her life at a very inopportune time, makes the situation all the more incredulous.

The Rangers attend a question and answer session with a group of children. This brings up old memories in Summer, who recalls her life prior to Corinth. Once she was a spoiled little rich girl, whose birthday and luxurious lifestyle was ruined by the rise of Venjix. Now, as Boom Bot attacks the city, she not only has to contend with Tenaya 7, who is trying to steal the Landsdown black diamond, but with the sudden return of her parents! What promise did Summer make the Landsdowns to gain her independence, that they now want her to fulfill?
