After he puts Antonio to sleep, the Nighlok leaps into an interdimensional portal to chase after Dayu. In the forest, the Pink Ranger and Dayu's battle is interrupted by the Nighlok, who puts them both to sleep - sending them to the Dream World as well. Master Ji informs Jayden about the Dream Spell - the victims start having beautiful dreams, but Rhinosnorous eats his dreaming victims in the Dream World, ultimately killing them. The Rangers must enter the Dream World to save everyone from being consumed.

Jayden plans to use his Symbol Power to enter the Dream World. In the forest, Mia dreams about cooking a meal. She enters a dark part of the Dream World and sees human Deker carrying his new bride, Dayu. Back in the city, the Rangers use their Symbol Powers to get Kevin and Mike in the Dream World. They find Antonio, who admires his fish award after winning the fishing tournament. The Rangers try to warn Antonio, but their attempts fail as he is too busy enjoying his dream.

Their house was burned down. Dayu called for help to save Deker. A Nighlok hears her call and makes a deal with Dayu in order to save Deker's life, in exchange for her humanity.

Power Discs

Errors

  • Jayden and Antonio recognized the Spitfangs, even though this is their first time actually seeing them on screen.
  • Mia had her Samuraizer out. In the next shot, however, she can be seen pulling out her Samuraizer.

Notes

  • Given the grim nature of Juzo Fuwa and Dayuu Usukawa's backstories, Deker and Dayu's respective counterparts in Samurai Sentai Shinkenger --- a disenchanted Samurai searching for the thrill in killing his opponents in cold blood and a jilted woman who kills her would-be lover and his bride in a fire --- Deker and Dayu's backstories are altered and tied together.
  • This episode shares similar themes to Zeo's "Rock-A-Bye Power Rangers". Both episodes have monsters that use sleep as a motif, and even use similar sleeping spells.
  • First appearance of Serrator who would not appear outside of Dayu's dream until the next season, Super Samurai.
  • Despite Rhinosnorus giving humans good dreams (leading to his deceptive nature), Dayu has more of a nightmare as she relives the day she became her monster form and lost Deker. It should be noted the dream started off with her remembering her wedding, a happier memory.
  • First apperance of the Spitfang Nighlok foot soldiers.
