Trivia

 * First team-up that the rangers team-uped with a non-ranger, followed by In Space's: Shell Shocked, where the rangers team-up with the Ninja Turtles.
 * Final appearance of the Z Putties even though they are not used in this episode.
 * The Repellator monster is the Silverhorns suit from "The Power Transfer" repainted green and with a long red tongue attached.
 * This three-parter setup the short-lived Masked Rider series, though that series would ultimately be considered non-canonical to Power Rangers and vice-versa. Though the one shot Masked Rider comic published by Marvel Comics, would feature one more crossover between the two series.
