Synopsis[]
The Grid Battleforce Rangers are given access to a powerful new Zord, but Evox has designs to steal it for himself.
Plot[]
In the Crystal Dimension, Scrozzle has finished creating a virus laced dart to Evox’s specifications. Evox is pleased by this as his plans have been successes so far, as they needed Nate's help, which they got when he was mind-controlled by Controlatron, where he wrote a special malware virus for Evox's secret project. Using that very same malware, Evox plans to use the dart to infect the Rangers' newest weapon, and gives it Robo-Blaze and Robo-Roxy so they can infect that weapon with the virus. Afterwards, Evox changes back into his Mayor Daniels disguise, laughing manically before teleporting back to Earth.
At Grid Battleforce, General Burke tells the Rangers, Ben and Betty, and Commander Shaw that he and Mayor Daniels have been working on a secret project, and today’s the day they all get to see it in action. Devon asks the Commander if she knows anything about this project, and she says she has no idea. While Mayor Daniels is running late, Burke decides to show them a sneak peak, only for him to accidentally show them a video of him, Ben, and Betty training poorly, much to their embarrassment.
Commander Shaw demands to know what the project is, and Burke reveals that it’s a brand new Zord: the Beast-X King Zord, created from Lion DNA. Burke wants an entire army of Beast-X King Zords to help protect the Morph-X Tower Network, but Shaw is angry that he built a Zord without notifying Grid Battleforce or the Rangers. Burke defends his actions, claiming that the Rangers are already too busy fighting against Evox in Coral Harbor, and promises that the Beast-X King Zord will not affect their work. Soon, Mayor Daniels arrives with the lead designer of the Zord, Megan. However, none of the Rangers are happy to see Megan since they still remembered how she blackmailed Zoey and tried to get Nate fired from the lab, but Mayor Daniels defends her, explaining that Megan’s design and plans made her the right person for the job. Megan admits that what she did to them was wrong, and says that all she wants to do is help them.
Regardless of the bad blood, Megan begins the demonstration by turning the cameras which displays Pine Ridge Woods, the hiding spot of the Beast-X King Zord which is just outside of Coral Harbor. She then shows the Rangers the Beast-X King Activator that summons the Zord before she inserts a Morph-X Key into it. She summons the Zord and makes it run around the field. However, the Robo-Generals see the new Zord, and Robo-Roxy tosses the dart at the Zord, which infects it with the malware virus Nate created. Megan finds that she cannot control it anymore as the Beast-X King Zord goes on a rampage. Nate wonders about the glow and then asks Megan if she'd installed a firewall against viruses and she sheepishly admits she did not, where Nate figures out that Evox has infected the Zord with a virus. Commander Shaw orders Devon to get in the Racer Zord and stop that Zord, and while a distraught Megan cannot believe why this is happening, Evox-Daniels grins sinisterly as his evil plans are going well.
Devon and Cruise races to the Beast-X King Zord’s location in the Racer Zord, before going into Cheetah Mode to face off against its Lion Mode. When that doesn’t work, Devon switches to Battle Mode and climbs onto the Beast-X King Zord to control it, only to get thrown off. Meanwhile, Nate finds out about the dart through surveillance footage, and tells off Megan for failing to install a firewall on the Zord, with Mayor Daniels doing the same. Nate tells Ravi and Steel to go out into the field, asks Zoey for assistance in the lab, and continues to give Megan the cold shoulder as he will fix her mistake. Before leaving, Megan gives Zoey the Beast-X Activator and Beast-X King Zord Key, but is brushed off.
As Devon continues to struggle, Nate instructs Ravi and Steel to point a satellite at the Beast-X King Zord so they could beam new programming into the Zord's system. Zoey tells Devon that Ravi and Steel are on the way. Megan once again offers her assistance to Nate and Zoey, even apologizing to the latter for blackmailing her due to her ambitious, and begs her to believe that she changed. She built the Beast-X King Zord to show them she has changed for the better, but Zoey ignores Megan, even when the latter warns her that Nate’s plan to reprogram the Zord will not work.
As Devon and the Beast-X King Zord continue to fight, Ravi and Steel arrive at the battlefield and begin setting up the satellite dish. Once finished, Devon jumps onto the Beast-X King Zord again, this time restraining it. Steel points the satellite at the Zord and Nate uploads the new data onto it in the hopes of controlling it, but instead, the Beast-X King Zord transforms into its own Battle Mode. As the fight resumes between the two Zords, Zoey tells Ravi and Steel to return to the base while they think of another solution. Nate tries to think of another solution, but doesn't have any more ideas and tells Devon to hold on for now. Zoey realizes that as upset as she and Nate are with Megan, they need her help as she designed the Zord and knows it better than anyone. Out of options and knowing it's the only way to fix this, Nate reluctantly agrees and brings Megan into the lab, where she explains that their previous attempt activated an auto-defense mechanism that she installed into the Zord. The only way to get around the mechanism and reprogram the Zord is to physically attach to it, like Evox's crew did with the dart. She asks if Nate has something that can shoot the new program into the Zord, where Nate realizes that the brand-new weapon that he’s been working on might solve their problem, and both run to the lab. Nate and Zoey show Megan a prototype of the Ultra Bow, which has already been uploaded with Gorilla and Jackrabbit DNA. Megan concludes that they'll need to upload Lion DNA into the Bow to make it compatible with the Zord as Ravi and Steel returns, where Nate informs the two of them that they're all working together and are on the same side. Nate tells the group that they need to get the new programming into an arrow so that they can reprogram the Zord and get to work.
As the fight between the Racer Zord and the Beast-X King Zord continues, Devon reveals that he’s running out of Morph-X, just as Nate and Megan are about to upload Lion DNA into the Ultra Bow, and it's completed, making it the Beast-X King Ultra Bow. As the Rangers leave to go help Devon, Nate thanks Megan for her help before grabbing the Ultra Bow and heading out. The Rangers drive back out to the fields to help Devon, and Nate tells them that they've only got one shot at reprogramming the Zord, just as the Robo-Generals and a squad of Tronics teleport in and stop them. As Nate goes off to take the shot, the others take on the Tronics and the Robo-Generals. Nate tells Devon that he needs a clear shot, so Devon tells Cruise to try a high powered punch, so he redirects their Morph-X for the punch. They manage to land a punch against the Beast-X King Zord, making the Zord freeze up long enough for Nate to fire the programmed Power Bolt at the Zord. It works as the Beast-X King Zord returns to its Lion Mode, meaning it’s back in the Rangers' control. While everybody is happy, Evox-Daniels just scowls in anger that his plan is ruined and leaves the room.
Commander Shaw tells Devon to take the Beast-X King Zord back to its hanger, with said Zord letting the Racer Zord ride on top if it. However, Robo-Roxy tells Robo-Blaze to deal with Devon, with the latter teleporting out as the former morphs. The other Rangers morph in response, and the fight resumes. Meanwhile, Robo-Blaze arrives in the rebuilt Ripper Zord, concerning Cruise as the Racer Zord is very low on Morph-X from the battle with the Beast-X King Zord. Fortunately, the Beast-X King Zord changes into its Vehicle Mode to help with getting the duo out of an explosion. Meanwhile, the Rangers knock down Robo-Roxy as Nate destroys her with the Beast-X King Ultra Bow's Power Bolt. Devon and the Beast-X King Zord manage to fire back at Robo-Blaze and knock his Zord out of the sky. Although the last attack drained their remaining Morph-X levels, Devon decides to finish the fight with the Beast-X King Zord, where he heads to its cockpit and changes it into its Battle Mode. Devon and the Beast-X King Zord Battle Mode to overpower Robo-Blaze’s Zord and hit him with a Flame Strike. After systems are at full power, Devon and the Beast-X King Zord before destroy Robo-Blazer and the Ripper Zord with a Beast-X Scepter Slash.
Back at Grid Battleforce, the Rangers get a hold of the virus dart as Megan gives them both the Beast-X King Zord Key and Activator, as both objects will help them summon the Beast-X King Zord whenever they need it. General Burke apologizes to Grid Battleforce for not trusting them with the project, but everybody forgives him and Megan for their actions. Commander Shaw offers Megan another chance at Grid Battleforce, having been impressed with her Zord, and the latter is happy about getting a second chance. Ben and Betty return with their dad's video camera and tell him it's finally working right, and see the mess in the lab. They decide to dispose of the infected dart by throwing it in the trash can, but Ben accidentally hits Steel with it, causing his legs to run wild. Steel has his legs detach from his upper torso, but they make a big mess in the lab before they end up running off by themselves. Ben and Betty go with Steel's torso and chase after his legs, which has the Rangers and Megan laughing.

Notes[]
- This is the first episode since "Evox: Upgraded" to not have a Robotron.
- The concept of a Zord being created by the villain only for it to end up in the possession of the Rangers was used before in seasons Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (Season 3) episode "Changing of the Zords" and Power Rangers RPM episode "Belly of the Beast".
- This is also the first appearance of Megan since "Sound and Fury", with her now being an independent inventor working on behalf of Mayor Daniels instead of an employee of Grid Battleforce.
- This episode shows that Blaze's Megazord is the only Gigadrone to not be created from a Robotron and yet not be called an Unidentified Gigadrone.
- This is the first episode where the main trio does not utilize Beast-X Mode since their debut in "Cruisin’ for a Bruisin’".
- The Beast-X King Zord's hiding place is said to be in Pine Ridge Woods, a city just outside of Coral Harbor. Pine Ridge is later revealed to be the city protected by the Dino Fury Rangers in Power Rangers Dino Fury.
