Go To

With Princess Shayla captured by Master Org, the Rangers are depressed, but they must overcome it when a powerful new Org, Locomotive Org, appears. Meanwhile, Jindrax, also depressed over the loss of Toxica, is contacted by her spirit saying he can revive her, forcing Jindrax to make a difficult decision.


Tropes in this episode include:

  • Bait-and-Switch: Princess Shayla is worried when Master Org tells her she'll finally be of use to him before he takes her necklace.
  • Bridal Carry: Jindrax does this to Toxica after he revived her from the Spirit World.
  • Defiant Captive: Princess Shayla, as she tells Master Org she doesn't fear him and that his plans will fail, despite seeing him destroying Mandilok who also defied him in the previous episode. However, Master Org only laughs at her statement.
    Princess Shayla: (Holding the bars) I don't fear you Master Org, I know in my heart that the forces of good will always prevail, whatever you have planned, you won't succeed!.
  • Didn't Think This Through: Jindrax resurrects Locomotive Org after helping the Rangers to destroy him to empower Toxica's horn, the first thing he does?, trying to stomp on Jindrax for his earlier betrayal, before trying to fight the Megazords.
  • Dramatic Necklace Removal: When Master Org yanks off Princess Shayla's necklace from her neck to use in his ceremony.
  • Heel–Face Turn: Toxica after being resurrected by Jindrax, tells him in the Spirit World, she thought it was time for them to change.
  • The Cameo: The clerk at the sporting goods store is played by voice actor Bob Papenbrook (voice of Rito Revolto, Deviot, and various monsters). This is notably his only live-action appearance in the series.
  • The Good Guys Always Win: Princess Shayla when Master Org approaches her cell, tells him the forces of good will prevail.
  • He's Back!: By the end of the episode, the Rangers have given up any self-pity they had and are focused entirely on rescuing Princess Shayla.
  • Make My Monster Grow: Jindrax does this for Locomotive Org after getting what he wants.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: After the grown Locomotive Org wants to get back at him for briefly helping the Rangers, Jindrax immediately runs off.
  • Shout-Out: Jindrax carries the Org Express Card.
  • Springtime for Hitler: In order to revive Toxica, Jindrax needed the Rangers to use their Jungle Blaster. Upon stumbling upon their fight with Locomotive Org, he was delighted, and planned to wait until they used the Jungle Blaster before making his move. Unfortunately for him, Locomotive Org was shown to be more powerful than previous Orgs and was actually on the verge of winning, forcing Jindrax to help the Rangers in order to save Toxica.
  • The Reveal: It's revealed why Master Org wanted to capture Princess Shayla, to steal her magic necklace.
  • Unfinished, Untested, Used Anyway: Locomotive Org causes so much damage to so many zords that the Rangers are eventually forced to use the never-before-formed Isis Megazord Predator Mode- the Falcon, the Wolf, the Hammerhead, and the Bison- because literally all other Zords are too injured to keep fighting right now.
  • Villainous Face Hold: Master Org does this to Princess Shayla after laughing at her statement that his plans will fail.
    Master Org:(chuckles) How wrong you are! (touches the Princess' chin) Princess.
  • Weirdness Censor: The owner of the sporting goods store Jindrax visits. The only thing he comments on in response to seeing a monster in his store is him paying for his fishing rod.
