The following day, Riley was early for his shift at the museum, but he hadn't gotten much sleep and figured he might as well get his day started. It was better than wasting time laying in bed. Since he had let Fury get away with the Ptera Charger, the least he could do was help Kendall with the solution. He doubted she really needed a hand, but he figured he would offer, just in case there was something he could do.

"Ms. Morgan?" he called as he got to the lab. He saw her on her feet at the work bench. He sighed, grabbed her desk chair and rolled it over. "You've got to stay off that foot if you want it to heal."

"It's healing fine, Riley," Kendall assured him, then checked her watch, "You're early."

"I couldn't sleep," Riley looked around at the various tools on the table. He knew what many of them were, but some left him scratching his head. In fact, most of Kendall's technology baffled him. It was far more advanced than anything he had ever seen, and since nearly everything in the lab had been built or designed by her, it was all original. There was no way for Riley to learn anything about the machines unless he asked Kendall. But he wasn't here to talk about her technology, or how she came up with everything he and the Rangers used. "It's about the Ptera Charger. How I... let it go."

"It's fine that you did," Kendall told him. "Cammy gave me a great idea for what to do next. It'll really give you and the Rangers the extra strength you need."

"The others tell me what I did was the right thing. I even talked to Keeper last night before heading home. He told me the logical decision isn't always right."

Kendall put her tools down and looked to Riley. He nodded his head.

"I know, right. A little confusing."

"I guess it makes sense," Kendall said. "Logically, going after the Ptera Charger would have been the best decision. It's the one I initially made for you. It's the decision you seem to believe was best."

"Yeah, but was it?" Riley asked. "I mean, I tossed and turned over this all night. I chose the guys over the Ptera Chargers. They all tell me I saved their lives, and that's a good thing, right?"

"It's a positive outcome," Kendall agreed.

"But, I let Fury get the Ptera Charger. Now he knows how to charge it and he's got the PteraZord. He could kill hundreds of people with that kind of power. I saved my friends, but at what cost?"

Riley picked up the empty Charger on Kendall's table and looked to it, "The only reason this worked out well is because you think you've got something that'll help us fight Fury. If you couldn't come up with something, I would be the reason hundreds, maybe thousands of people died. I would have made the wrong choice. Logically, protecting an entire city from death has to trump saving my friends, right?"

"Yes," Kendall nodded her head. "Saving thousands of lives is more logical than saving four. You're right."

"So I made the wrong decision?"

"But that's the choice you were given," Kendall said. "Save your friends, or get the Ptera Charger. That's the position you were in. Those were your options."

"And I was wrong."

Kendall shook her head, "You saved four lives today, Riley. Chase, Koda, Tyler, Shelby, they're all alive today thanks to you. They're still Rangers because of the decision you made. When Fury attacks again, with or without the PteraZord, he'll have to go through five Rangers before he can attack the city."

"But if I had gotten the Ptera Charger..."

"Fury wouldn't have the PteraZord, you're right," Kendall said. "But there also wouldn't be five Rangers to stop him from trying again. There would be one. You."

"But he wouldn't have the PteraZord."

"Would he need it?" Kendall asked. "If there was only one Ranger to fight, would Fury really need the PteraZord? You're an amazing Ranger, Riley, but you couldn't stop Fury on your own. No one could. I'm proof of that."

Kendall pointed to her leg then looked up at Riley, "As long as we have five Rangers, Fury needs the PteraZord. And while it makes this battle a little harder for us, it's not something we can't overcome. Your team was in immediate danger. The city still has hope. While, logically, protecting the city, the Zords and the energem is more important than four lives, practically, you need your team. You made the right call."

"So, Keeper was right. The logical decision..."

"Isn't always the right decision," Kendall nodded her head. "If you would like another example, take destroying the PlesioZord. Logically, that was stupid. But we'll adapt. We'll find the energem again; we'll get the PlesioZord back in some way. Protecting the city, that was more important. That was the right decision."

"I'll try to remember that," Riley said. "Thanks, Ms. Morgan. That really helped."

"That's what I'm here for," Kendall answered. "Well, that and finding a way to stop Fury and Sledge."

"You know, it'd be nice to hear your opinion about this stuff a little more," Riley said. Kendall looked up curiously.

"I don't think I've been shy when it comes to voicing my opinion about your Ranger duties."

"That, no," Riley chuckled and shook his head. "But, like, this stuff. The part about being a Ranger that's a lot more personal. You really helped me."

"You're easy," Kendall said. "You think the most like me."

"I do?"

"You think about the facts, about what makes sense. You look at what's worked in the past and stick with that. You make adjustments where necessary and spend hours studying the different options."

"Yeah, the others are a little more: go with the flow," Riley chuckled. "It took me a while to get used to that."

"It's still taking me time," Kendall said. "When the others are in crisis, I don't know where to begin."

"Well, what does Chase do for you?"

"Excuse me?" Kendall frowned. Riley took a step back.

"I just... it's just that, when you're in crisis, Chase knows how to help you. And he's probably the most relax person we both know."

"And what's your point?"

"Well, if you don't understand him, because his brain works differently from yours, how do you think he feels about you?"

"I..."

"You know, Ms. Morgan, sometimes, being different is the best thing you can do to help a person," Riley told her. "Consider it a new perspective."

"I guess I never thought of it that way."

"So, don't be shy about chiming in on the more personal stuff. Also, it'd be really nice to have some backup in the logic department," Riley chuckled, then gestured up to the museum, "Sometimes, I'm not sure Koda's the only primitive human around."

"I'll keep that in mind. Thank you, Riley."

"Thank you, uh... Kendall."

"It's Ms. Morgan."

"Yeah," Riley nodded his head. "Saw that coming."
