Plot
Finster has discovered the location of the lost Ancient Zords! In order to bring them to life for their own evil purposes, Rita & Zedd will need some unwilling assistance from the Power Rangers. First, while the Tengas distract the teens from a relaxing day at the beach, Rita's enthralled pawn Katherine steals the Pink Ranger's Power Coin! With it, she'll be able to sneak aboard the Falconzord and ambush the White Ranger when Ninjor needs his help most, facing a giant Goldar! Will our heroes fall for this plot, and can Kimberly survive for long with her Coin in the hands of evil?

Errors

 * Based on the shallowness of the water, Bulk and Skull should have been severely injured when they jumped in.
 * After the battle against the Tengas at the lake, Adam was wearing a shirt and bandana despite not wearing them when he entered the water.
 * In the international soundtrack to the episode, Lord Zedd refers to Inciserator as 'Fangenstein'.
 * Despite Inciserator proving to be more than a match for the Rangers, he isn't sent up against them again after the initial battle.
 * Kimberly fought the Tengas instead of simply trying to lure them away from Kat.
 * Considering the fact that Lord Zedd had no ulterior motive for being transported to the Command Center, why didn't he just give the Rangers his demands over the Viewing Globe?
 * Billy mentions using the "PortalCom" to rescue Kimberly just like when Tommy was trapped in Zedd's dimension, an incident that has not been shown on-screen before. However, in Season 1, the Rangers used the PortalCom to rescue Tommy from the Dark Dimension during the adventure of the Green Candle.
 * Rocky says that earthquakes don't happen in Angel Grove, however numerous earthquakes have been seen to occur since "Day of the Dumpster".

Song

 * Part 1 and 3: Tenga Bye Bye
