Notes
- While used in a similar plot to her Sentai counterpart, the only slight plot difference in Power Rangers Time Force is that due to TimeYellow's (Domon) Time Force counterpart being female instead of male, the Green Time Force Ranger (Trip) was used as the third victim instead.
- Contemptra's voice is provided by Valerie Vernon, who played Kendrix Morgan in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy.
- Her name originates from words "contempt" and "temptress".
- Despite she was released to seduce the male rangers, for unknown reasons she didn't attempt to seduce Eric, the Quantum Ranger, although this could be possibly because she knew it would difficult to seduce him due to his distant attitude. There was also the fact that in the Timeranger version, Time Fire was not introduced yet during that point of the series.
