Conner, Kira, Ethan, and Trent watched as the monster disappeared.
"Man, that thing seriously trashed us," Conner groaned, as he helped the others up. "You guys okay?" he questioned.
"Yeah," Ethan answered.
"Nothing seems to be broken," Trent responded. "Kira, what about you?" he checked.
"Nothing injured but my pride," she said.
"Man, what are Mesogog and Gragon up to now?" Conner wondered.
"I don't know. But whatever it is, it can't be good," Kira declared.
"No lie," agreed Ethan. Conner touched his communicator.
"What's up?" they heard their science teacher ask.
"We got our tails kicked by that beetle monster," Conner reported.
"Come to the Command Center right away," the man instructed.
"Be right there," Conner promised. The teens teleported. They were instantly concerned when they saw Katherine in a chair, with her leg propped up.
"Miss Hillard, are you okay?" Kira questioned.
"I'm all right, Kira. Just didn't live up to my name is all," Katherine joked.
"Kat's going to be all right, Rangers. However, we have a more serious problem," Zordon told them.
"Don't tell me that nasty bug's back," Conner groaned.
"I'm afraid so, Conner," Zordon said. They turned to the screen to the see the beetle monster blasting buildings with electric energy from its hands.
"Oh, man. I'm starting to hate that creepy thing," Ethan stated.
"I'm glad I got over my fear of bugs," Zack said in relief.
"So are we," Jason commented.
"We've gotta stop that creepy crawly," Rocky determined.
"Right," Katherine agreed, beginning to stand.
"Whoa. Not you. You just stay here and rest that ankle," Kimberly corrected, pushing her friend back in her seat.
"But I---" Katherine began to object.
"Kim's right. We can't risk you injuring yourself permanently," Tommy agreed.
"All right," Katherine agreed with a sigh. Tommy and Kimberly both looked at the girl in sympathy. They knew exactly how she felt. Being sidelined was the pits.
"It's morphin' time!" Tommy called.
"Mastodon!" Zack shouted.
"Pterodactyl!" Kimberly hailed.
"Triceratops!" Billy summoned.
"Saber-toothed Tiger!" Trini yelled.
"Tyrannosaurus!" Rocky finished.
"Ninja Ranger Power!" Tommy, Adam and Aiesha chorused.
"Gold Ranger Power!" Jason cried.
"Dino Thunder! Power Up!" Conner, Kira, and Ethan said in unison.
"White Ranger! Dino Power!" Trent finished. Seconds later, they were in town.
"Man, he's ugly," the Black Ninja Ranger stated.
"You ain't wrong," the Blue Dino Ranger agreed. The beetle monster roared and charged them!
