The Space Rangers are stunned when they encounter the Psycho Rangers, recently created by the newly-brainwashed Astronema and secretly drawing tremendous energy off of Dark Specter. These five evil Rangers scour Angel Grove, listening for the telltale sound of our heroes' communicators to alert them of the unmorphed teens' location. When Zhane ends up captured by them, the Space Rangers are forced to come out of hiding to face the Psychos, who prove to be more than their equals in both skill and ruthlessness.
