Tropes:

  • All Your Base Are Belong to Us: Wootox (in Sky's body) manages to find the cockpit to activate the Delta Base Megazord to destroy the city. Fortunately, Sky (in Wootox's body) manages to stop him before he could cause any damage.
  • Curse of Babel: Wootox's body is physically unable to speak English, unfortunately for Sky (and the alien deliberately breaks the translator for good measure).
  • Evil-Detecting Dog: RIC's the one who catches on to Sky's and Wootox's body swap.
  • "Freaky Friday" Flip: Sky and Wootox.
  • Grand Theft Me: The episode is about the Monster of the Week Wootox forcefully switching bodies with Sky and trying to destroy S.P.D.
  • Heads or Tails?: The monster Wootox does this a couple times.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Sky (in Wootox's body) is told by the real Wootox (in Sky's body) that if he destroys him, he will lose his body forever. However, Sky doesn't care as long that stops Wootox from causing trouble.
  • Idiot Ball: It never occurs to Sky to get Bridge; the psychic to read his thoughts to prove he is not the real alien.
  • Papa Wolf: When discovering that "Sky" is actually Wootox inside his body, Cruger angrily tells him nobody messes with his Rangers.
  • Spot the Imposter: "Sky" acts increasingly out of character and demonstrates lack of basic knowledge about the base.
  • Tempting Fate: When Jack and Sky lead Wootox to his cell, Sky insists he can take the dangerous criminal alone. It doesn't end well.
  • Wounded Gazelle Gambit: Wootox tries to trick Sky into lowering his guard by pretending to suffocate in the Earth's atmosphere. Not that Sky buys it.
  • You Monster!: Cruger calls Wootox (in Sky's body) this when he tells him if he destroys him, the real Sky will be trapped in his body forever.
