Capturing Ashley on her birthday, Astronema uses the Body Switcher monster's special powers to take on the form of the Yellow Space Ranger. She infiltrates the Astro Megaship, and systematically captures each of the Rangers. Ashley tricks the monster into turning her into Astronema, which aids in her escape, but once free, can she convince Andros of the truth, or will he not realize until it's too late?
