We're at the Animarium base, with Princess Shayla telling the rangers good luck (I think, this and the next few sentences are from memory since my VCR cut off the first 10 seconds of the episode).

Now we're on Earth, if it is Earth, as we see Toxica and Zen-Aku talking. Toxica says she's glad Zen-Aku is working for Master Org. Zen-Aku then jumps right in front of Toxica and says he doesn't work for Master Org. Toxica laughs, and then says she understands seeing what happened 3000 years ago between him and Master Org. Zen-Aku asks "What are you talking about? Tell me now." (he's either got memory lapses or is trying to hide something). Toxica rolls her eyes and tells herself that "He doesn't remember...". Then, Zen-Aku's hand is twisting Toxica's right arm and tells her to tell him now. Then, some engines roar and what do you know, the rangers show up to spoil their conversation and to spoil our flashback story on Zen-Aku. Zen-Aku asks himself "What are they doing here?", as do we. Zen-Aku lets go of the hold as Toxica then tells the rangers "Nice timing". She then leaves as Cole and the other rangers get off there Savage Cycles. Cole is the first to speak, asking for their wild zords (another fault by Cole, doesn't he realize whenever you ask an evil villian, that you'll never get it?). Zen-Aku continues the evil villian tradition by claiming they belong to him. He then calls them instead of beating the rangers up (why doesn't he just destroy the rangers himself, it would save him a lot of time and then he could grab the remaining animal crystals). He plays his little flute or blade, whatever you call it. The zords come running, make a fireball, and then combine into the goofiest looking megazord with a big allligator in the chest (one slash from a sword will chop that alligator right off). The rangers fight back using there wild zords and forming the almighty Wild Force Megazord. Then the rangers get in the Soul Bird and it heads into the Megazord through the back. Both Megazords are ready, as the Predazord has already drawn its gigantic staff. The Predazord also looks badder too and more cooler. Princess Shayla is shown in the Animarium watching from the pool or fountain which we will now call "the tron". We're in the Predazord cockpit, which is pretty dark (how can Zen-aku see from in it?), and tells the rangers to meet his new Dark Wild Zords, the elephant is shown as it looks as if it has gone through the metamorphasis from a rock (why doesn't he just call them wild zords and drop the Dark?). He plays his flute/blade again, a different tune I think. The megazord watches and well what do you know, out comes the elephant (how did Alyssa call it?). Here comes the elephant, and it runs into the megazord. Guess which one. Oh no! It's the Wild Force Megazord! I guess Alyssa needs to take better care of her animal crystals. Oh wait, I forgot, Zen-Aku stole it. Alyssa screams "Elephant zord!" from the cockpit. Princess Shayla views the battle on the tron as Danny says that Zen-Aku has turned the Elephant zord against them (he's probably the last to realize that). Alyssa is in shock and goes insane (Alyssa shows her true colors). Max tells her that they'll get it back. The Wild Force Megazord looks on as within the Predazord base, Zen-Aku calls on another stolen zord, the giraffe (Sheesh, Ash Ketchem took better care of his Poke balls than the rangers did with their Animal Crystals!). We hear another boring, sleepful tune as the giraffe comes, well, skipping to its destination. Max tries and tells the Giraffe zord to not listen to Zen-Aku. The giraffe swings its neck at the megazord. The megazord falls finally and Zen-Aku in his base tells himself that revenge was sweeter than he had hoped and tells the Predazord to go into spear mode. The giraffe becomes another lethal weapon, becoming what it would be if it were in the Wild Force Megazord, an arm. The Predazord is ready for action with its new arm, and Cole realizes that Zen-Aku can use the Spear of Pardolas. The rangers look on as the megazords are in a showdown (why didn't the Predazord just use its big staff?). Well, it's not the Spear of Pardolas move, but the Crescent Moon Spear, as it fires the Giraffe head blade thing, and sends it in the megazord, causing it to break apart, not blow up (if it did, it'd be a mess, and i'm not talking about bathroom either). The rangers fall de-morphed, as the Predazord lookd down and Zen-Aku says his revenge is finally at hand. The Predazord uses the giraffe arm and points it at the rangers. All the rangers are freightened as Zen-Aku tells the rangers "goodbye" (let's hope he does this so I don't have to write these summaries 30 more times). He's gonna do it, as it's in slow motion, but there's the gorilla as he throws his exploding bananas right at Predazord (another mistake by Cole, why didn't he call the gorilla in the first place?). We also see the two bears as they roll right into the Predazord, hitting it several times. Taylor says that the zords knew they were in trouble. All three good zords roar, as the rangers are excited. Cole says that even without their animal crystals, they are still their in heart and spirit (actually that's not true, since two of their zords are under Zen-Aku's control). Zen-Aku says that they won't be able to hide behind them forever. The Predazord teleports away (strange, since the Predazord easily outmatched the Gorilla and two bears). The rangers look on.

We see the tron, as Princess Shayla is viewing it (there was an image of Zen-Aku). We then look to the dark sky as we see there is a crescent moon. Princess Shayla then touches her necklace and thinks. Then, out of nowhere, Taylor appears as Princess Shayla runs off. Taylor asks where is she going. Princess Shayla says she's going to go back to the place where the rangers met Zen-Aku because she senses that something's wrong and wants to find out why (in the middle of the night, she can't even defend herself!). Taylor says she's coming with her (ok, my commentary was wrong I guess, but just one ranger? there's an insane wolf on the lose!).

We're at the same time, but different place as we're seeing the crescent moon as the camera zooms out from the right side. Zen-Aku is playing his blade-flute as we'll call it now. He's standing on a rock in the middle of a river, or side actually. He tells himself that alhough his powers come and go with the phases of the moon, his resolve remains the same and vengeance will be his. Then, a groan sounds (guess Zen-Aku's playing woke up a grumpy animal). Zen-Aku says it could be an Org spirit crying revenge. We're at a gate, and now a dark, scary place, which looks like a cemetary but has thorns (can't tell, it's dark). Zen-Aku approaches a tree and a piece of paper that is going down the tree. Zen-Aku tells the "Spirit", to "fear not", that he will "release you from your tomb". He rips the paper, and electric comes out (well, electric waves). It's a column, not a tree and outcomes a hand. Well, that shouldn't be hard to defeat.

It's daytime now, as we see Princess Shayla finally reach her destination (it took that long? why not take the Savage Cycles? These rangers need to get their travel arrangements straight). We see Taylor and Princess Shayla in the area where the rangers met Zen-Aku, now, a bunch of rocks. Both see an open tomb, and run towards it. Taylor asks what Princess Shayla sees and senses. Princess Shayla says that she senses something is very wrong, and then a motor revs up, but doesn't sound like a Savage Cycle, as we see a creepy hand turn the handle. Princess Shayla and Taylor wonder, as the "hand" continues to rev itself up. Now, it charges at Princess Shayla and Taylor (it's not a car? what are they making in Japan these days?). It runs right into both of them (the two-legged car actually split the two girls and they fell down). The "Org", whose name proper name is Motorcycle Org, tells Taylor it's been a long time, and then laughs. Taylor says she remembers him, that he was the Org the rangers put away. Motorcycle Org says that he was only a scooter back then, but now he's a 750 CC motorcycle now and that it's time to chop "you" down to size. Motorcycle Org charges as Taylor enters the bout, stepping in-front of the lovely princess. Taylor gets in two unsucessful left kicks, goes for a punch that is blocked as she is turned over. She is then picked up and thrown to the ground. The Princess calls for Taylor, but Zen-Aku grabs the Princess's shoulder and tells her to wait. Zen-Aku then looks at the necklace brace or whatever that jewelry piece Princess Shayla was looking at last night and just stares at it. The princess seems confused as Taylor calls for her and runs towards her. But not before Motorcycle Org fires a blast at Taylor, causing her to fall once again. Zen-Aku grabs the princess as Taylor tells Zen-Aku to let her go. Motorcycle Org approaches Taylor on the ground as Zen-Aku tells the Org to leave her for later. The Motorcycle Org is confused as he asks why not now, Zen-Aku responds by saying revenge is something you don't rush. Motorcycle Org tells Zen-Aku he likes the way the Duke Org thinks and then revs himself up and goes with Zen-Aku who doesn't teleport for once. Taylor finally gets up and then falls down, she leans on the tomb. She then picks up her Growl Phone and tells someone that the Princess has been kidnapped.

We see some electric appear, and it's Motorcycle Org energizing himself (guess he doesn't use gas). He revs up around the place, as Zen-Aku looks on. He then approaches the princess, and looks at the jewelry. He asks where did she get it (necklace is probably worth a billion bucks) and why does she wear it (because it looks pretty on her; the necklace is a billion bucks and the princess is probably priceless). She touches it and says someone very special to her gave it to her a long time ago, and she wears it in memory of that person (I'm no fashion expert, but the necklace goes well with her outfit). The Princess said it in a calm voice (why isn't she like, scared? he's the baddest dude in Wild Force! Guess the Princess is stronger than we all think). Zen-Aku then grins.

We see the other rangers run (why do they always do this? Savage Cycles would have taken 30 times less the time than the rangers would have run to get to the area) towards Taylor. Alyssa goes off again saying it's her fault and that they'll find the princess. Taylor says that she doesn't understand, she then goes tells about her past again. She says that when she first became a Power Ranger, she took her first assignment. We see Taylor morphed, getting a knee to the stomach by a "younger" Motorcycle Org and then being thrown into a standing metal sheet that falls. She then gets in a hit with her Crystal Sabre and then kicks the Org down. The Org claims that the kick was just what he needed. Then, Taylor panics and tells "tells Org, to stay away from her and that she means it (whew, Motorcycle Org better not mess with her today). Taylor says she wasn't able to defeat the org without the princess (so the princess is more than meets the eye...). Taylor says that the princess used her magic to seal the Org away and now he's back, stronger than before. Because of that Org, Taylor says that Zen-Aku was able to kidnap the princess. Taylor feels guilty, but Cole says that the org may be stronger, but so is she, and that they should find the org and find the princess as Taylor nods.

We're back with Zen-Aku and the crew, who are in an abandonded place. Zen-Aku stares at the necklace again, and says he's seen it before. Zen-Aku now walks away from the princess, and says his memory is a blur. He tells himself "Why can't I remember?". We go into his head and we see a hand putting the necklace on the princess as she poses with it, spinning around (it's Zen-Aku's hand, and we get a more far-out shot and we see a guy dressed in white, no it's not a Backstreet Boy). We're back to the present, and Zen-Aku makes a sound like he's cold, and tells himself something about the necklace stirs his past. He goes towards the princess, as he says he must find out, and then something eats him from inside (sorta like Magna Defender), and he stops to confront his pain. He goes insane and asks what is happening to him. The Princess asks if he's ok, as Zen-Aku is offended by it. The scene is interuptted by Motorcycle Org. He says that the yellow ranger and her friends are outside. Zen-Aku goes and brings the princess with him. We go outside, with the rangers near the doorway.

The rangers and Zen-Aku, Red Hog Org, and the princess meet. The princess is trying to run towards the rangers but Zen-Aku holds his arm out and yells "NO!". Cole tells Zen-Aku to release the princess (like he's going to). Taylor says that she and Motorcycle Org have a score to settle, and then goes to another option and asks the Org if he's running on fumes. The Motorcycle chrages at Taylor, as they both jump in the air and get no advantage. Cole and the other rangers attempt to get in the action and help Taylor, but they are stopped by Zen-Aku's blade, and says that this a personal grudge and no one may interfere (he's talking about Taylor and Motorcycle Org, guess he has a point). Cole asks if Taylor will be alright by herself. She says that she should have finished this a long time ago. Zen-Aku makes the four rangers feel lucky and says that they have to deal with him.

Toxica and Jindrax are looking on at the battle, and Toxica asks if they should help Zen-Aku. Jindrax says that would be the right thing to do. They are about to go, then call it off and teleport somewhere.

We're at the battle scene with the rangers and Zen-Aku. Cole is hit first, then black. We're with Motorcycle Org as Taylor is hit, then Taylor gets some it with her Eagle Sword. She tries to grab Motorcycle Org by his horns, and tells him that she'll beat him for good. Motorcycle Org says that she couldn't defeat him as a scooter. He then gets the advantage by pinning her against the wall. He finishes his statement by saying how is she going to beat him when he's super-charged. Taylor gets an arm and jumps over Telephone Org and uses her wings and hits Motorcycle Org with her foot. Then some slashses.

The action goes to the rangers now as they seem to be having trouble with Zen-Aku. Zen-Aku uses Crescent Blade and the rangers hit the ground. Princess Shayla watches Zen-Aku as he says he's going to get his revenge. The Princess goes after him in a worried state. She blocks Zen-Aku's path. Zen-Aku asks the Princess to step-aside. The Princess says only if he destroys her first (no Princess don't!). Zen-Aku says so be it. Then, as he is about to, he looks at the necklace and we see the flashback with the guy in white with black gloves putting that exact necklace on Princess Shayla. Cole now uses Red Lion Fang and hits Zen-Aku. And then Motorcycle Org is rolled over? We see Taylor use her Golden Eagle Slash and Motorcycle Org is blown up. Taylor watches. Taylor celebrates, as the other rangers join her and congratulate her. Cole tells the rangers to combine their weapons. They form the Jungle Sword and use Savage Slash which blows up Motorcycle Org a second time a guess. Taylor tells the flames that "You're out of gas". Instead of Toxica making Motorcycle Org grow, we get Zen-Aku and he calls his Wild Zords (We just saw them, why do we need to see them again?). He plays his blade, seems like a different tune each time. We see the Predazord awaken, looking pretty powerful. Then we see the rangers call there little Wild Zords. We see the more powerful Kongazord (not to the Predazord). Zen-Aku tells the rangers they'll pay for what they did to Motorcycle Org (he'd still be here if Toxica would make him grow). Taylor says that Zen-Aku is going to pay. From his cockpit, Zen-Aku uses the Predator Wave as the big alligator fires a big beam. The rangers counter it with Bear Blasters. The Bears fire and both megazords are hit. The rangers are again out of the cockpit but still morphed. We see Zen-Aku as he's out of his cockpit and we see his three zords behind him, when they suddenly disappear. Zen-Aku tells the rangers that they have no zords to hide behind (neither does he, but Zen-Aku's power is like 50 rangers put together). Princess Shayla goes towards the rangers to see if they are ok. Princess Shayla then hears Zen-Aku. He says that she should come with him and he has many questions to ask her. Taylor tells Zen-Aku she's not going anywhere with him and gets her Golden Eagle Sword but misses on the leap and is hit. Zen-Aku and Taylor are at a showdown as Princess Shayla watches nervously. They both jump, Taylor was first actually, and Taylor gets a miracle as she gets the hit (Zen-Aku was just frozen, probably because of the Princess's necklace). Zen-Aku just stands there, as Taylor looks proud as she's the first to fight Zen-Aku and not end up on the floor (well, at the end at least). Zen-Aku then out of nowhere fires something and it hits Taylor (guess you can forget that last thought). Princess Shayla is horrified as Taylor is demorphed, and loses her two animal crystals. Zen-Aku is surprised with two crystals, as he says most rangers drop only one. He holds them in his hand and the crystals become two rocks. The two bears are now rock and then disappear. Taylor reaches for them like they're two feet away. (why do the rangers carry their animal crystals with them? why don't they just keep them at the Animarium and have them teleported whenever they need them? that's what the Lost Galaxy Rangers did with their equipment and the Lights of Orion. This doesn't make any sense as they keep losing their animal crystals. How come they don't drop their original crystals?).

It's Zen-Aku, and he points to Taylor and tells her she can train for 3000 years and she still wouldn't defeat him (uhh, I wouldn't say that Zen-Aku, Taylor's tougher than you think). Taylor is on the ground and she looks like she has a lot of anger boiled up inside her. Cole calls out Zen-Aku, and tells him he won't get away with that (he already did). Then, Princess Shayla notices something. It's Zen-Aku's hand (maybe he secretly put the Bear Crystals in there). No, it's bleeding! The blood falls to the asphalt, and Princess Shayla's eyes are wide open. Zen-Aku tells her he will let her exist with her own failure awhile longer. Zen-Aku walks away and teleports. Then, the rangers realize Taylor is hurt. The Princess goes over to her and comforts her. Taylor tells herself she's so weak (I wouldn't think that). She says she doesn't deserve to be a ranger. The Princess tells her she's wrong (well, Taylor's ego will make her think she's right). Taylor is crying and says the Bear Zords chose her to protect them, and they trusted her. She says she failed them both like she just failed them (sheesh, I thought Max was the only one that would have cried when the rangers started losing their Wild Zords). The other rangers finally come to the two. The Princess nodds to the rangers. Cole puts his hands on her shoulders and tells her not to worry, and they'll get them back, all back. The Princess gets up, stares in the direction that Zen-Aku left and teleported. What's going on here?
