Episode 430: Power Rangers RPM: Rain

At the Garage, the teens show Dillon around

"Before the Venjix virus attack" said K "I was the leader of a research team developing exo-skeletal robotic suits to amplify human strength and speed. We were attempting to harness the human body's natural electrical output to prolong the suit's battery life when we had a breakthrough. The discovery of a universal bio-electrical field; an unseen energy grid that connects the life-force of all living things. Manipulating this field allowed for unimagined advancements in technology, including these: the Ranger Prototype Series Covert Infantry Bio-Suits"

"Right, because nothing says covert life bright red, yellow and blue spandex" said Dillon

"That is not spandex!" said K

"Dr. K can get a little defensive about his work" said Summer

"The material is a self-assembling nano fiber formed with an intracellular sheet of memory alloy" said K

"My mistake" said Dillon "Now, is that machine washable or strictly dry clean only? Seriously though, I've got to be going"

"If you leave" said Summer "you're going back to jail"

"Let him" said Scott "he wouldn't be able to pass the trials to be a Ranger anyways"

"I could too" said Dillon

"Then prove it" said Scott and Dillon goes through the trials

"So how'd I do?" Dillon asked

"You scored too high for the equipment to measure" said K

"I still don't trust him" said Scott

"Ranger Operator Series Black must go online before the next attack" said K

"Yeah" said Dillon "I'm still not interested"

At Venjix's Lair, Venjix creates Generation Series 9 Amphibious Attack Bot Water Hoser, who can shoot out a special chemical that exploits a vulnerability in Corinth's Dome, allowing the Attack Bot and Grinders to get through, although it still won't allow anything more powerful to get through or even a large wireless signal

In Corinth Park, it is raining as the teens show Dillon around

"You're trying to convince me to fight for the people" said Dillon "it won't work. I suppose to protect someone once"

"Who were you trying to protect?" Summer asked

"I don't know" said Dillon

"What happened?" Summer asked

"I failed" said Dillon "which is why you shouldn't trust me"

"You're just the kind of person I would trust" said Summer as Dillon watches children play

"I'll do it" said Dillon "on one condition"

Outside of the Corinth Jail, the teens and Dillon watch as Ziggy walks out

"This is really your condition?" Scott asked "why would you want Ziggy?"

"He makes good shadow puppets" said Dillon

At the Garage, the teens and Ziggy watch as Dillon puts on the Rev Morpher

"RPM, GET IN GEAR!" said Dillon "RANGER OPERATOR SERIES BLACK, 5!"

"This is awesome!" said Ziggy as he takes pictures "I never thought spandex could be so cool!"

"That is not spandex!" said K "you will clean the floors with a toothbrush!"

That night, Dillon dreams about failing to protect someone and he gets up and finds Ziggy

"How do I get out of the city?" Dillon asked

"If you can drive through the vents while they aren't incinerating anything, you can get out" said Ziggy "but you can't go"

"I have to" said Dillon and he takes Scott's car and leaves

Later, the teens wake up to an alarm due to Water Hoser attacking the city

"Dillon's gone" said Flynn

"So is my car" said Scott

"We can't worry about that now" said Summer "we've got to stop that Attack Bot" and they race to the city

In the main city, the teens arrive to see Water Hoser and Grinders attacking

"RPM, GET IN GEAR!" said Scott "RANGER OPERATOR SERIES RED, 1!"

"RANGER OPERATOR SERIES BLUE, 2!" said Flynn

"RANGER OPERATOR SERIES YELLOW, 3!" said Summer

"Nitro Swords!" said Scott and they destroy the Grinders

"Street Saber!" said Scott

"Turbo Cannon!" said Flynn

"Zip Charger!" said Summer

"ROAD BLASTER!" said Scott and they combine their weapons "ENGINE CELL, ACTIVATE!" and he inserts Engine Cell 1 into the Road Blaster "FIRE!" and they destroy the Attack Bot

Venjix sends a small wireless signal that allowed the Attack Bot to grow.

More Grinders arrive and they outnumber the Rangers

Elsewhere in Corinth, Dillon waits for the vents to open up

The Rangers continue to battle the Grinders, but can't beat them. Scott does his burst attack, which destroys some Grinders, but more keep coming. Flynn does his time manipulation attack, which stop everyone from moving in the immediate area, allowing him to destroy more Grinders. Summer does her energy blast attack, which destroys more Grinders, but even more are coming. The special attacks drain the Rangers' Powers and they begin to fall

At the Garage, Dr. K and Ziggy monitor the battle

"We've got to do something" said Ziggy

"Like what?" K asked

"Can you route the Rangers' comms to Scott's car's radio?" Ziggy asked and K does

Dillon prepares to exit through the vents he hears the Rangers calls

At the battle, the Grinders are about to finish the Rangers off when Dillon drives up and gets out of the car

"RPM, GET IN GEAR!" said Dillon "RANGER OPERATOR SERIES BLACK, 5! You guys take the big guy, I'll take the Grinders"

"You're going to take the Grinders?" Scott asked

"I know" said Dillon "Venjix should have sent more. Nitro Sword!"

"EAGLE RACER!" said Scott and the 1 on his chest glowed and a small Zord appeared from it. He opened it up and inserted Engine Cell 1 into it

"LION HAULER!" said Flynn and the 2 on his chest glowed and a small Zord appeared from it. He opened it up and inserted Engine Cell 2 into it

"BEAR CRAWLER" said Summer and 3 on her chest glowed and a small Zord appeared from it. He opened it up and inserted Engine Cell 3 into it. They throw their Zords into the air and they grow and then the Rangers jump into them, inserting their Engine Cell Morphers into the steering wheels.

"HIGH OCTANE MEGAZORD!" said Scott and the Zords combine and the Megazord fights the Attack Bot

On the ground Dillon continues to fight the Grinders

"Nitro Blaster!" said Dillon as he turns his Nitro Sword to blaster mode and takes out Engine Cell 5 "Engine Cell, Activate!" and he inserts it into the Nitro Blaster and blasts the remaining Grinders

Water Hoser damages a bridge and the Megazord grabs ahold of it, allowing the cars that were on it to drive off. Water Hoser blasts the Megazord, but it holds on until the last car drives off the bridge

"SUPER SABER!" said Scott and they destroy the Attack Bot

On the ground, Dillon finishes off the Grinders

"Is my car okay?" Scott asked

"I'm okay" said Dillon

"What about my car?" Scott asked but Dillon turns off his radio

At the Garage, Dr. K debriefs the Rangers

"Venjix found a vulnerability in the shield" said K "a chemical could be used to disrupt the shield. I have since patched the vulnerability, but Venjix will keep finding ways in"

Next time on Power Rangers RPM:

As Ziggy, Scott, Flynn, and Summer interview candidates to be Ranger Operator Series Green, Dr. K tries to train Dillon. Will Dillon be able to master his shield attack in time for the next Venjix attack? And who will be the new Green Ranger? Find out next time on Power Rangers RPM!
