Destination Dinohenge is the season premiere and first episode of Power Rangers Dino Fury. It is the first part to the two-part premiere to the introduction of the initial core trio Dino Fury Rangers (Zayto, Amelia Jones, and Ollie Akana), Solon, Hengemen, the backstory of the Great Sporix Wars and the Sporix being unleashed onto the planet by the main antagonist, Void Knight.

Synopsis[]

Go-getting reporter Amelia accompanies Ollie and his mother, Dr. Akana, to investigate the mysterious Dinohenge statues. They run into an evil warrior Void Knight and a threat that puts the entire world into danger. Do they have what it takes to stop this menace?

Plot[]

In the heart of the city of Pine Ridge, reporter Amelia Jones drives into her place of work, BuzzBlast, on her scooter, and meets with her boss Jane Fairview. Amelia tries to pitch an article idea to Jane, but the latter says she will only approve it if it is not another one of Amelia’s attempts to prove paranormal activity. Amelia says that she heard about a mysterious monument site called Dinohenge located deep inside the forest, but Jane immediately dismisses it as another ghost article she wants to write. Amelia claims that she got permission to enter the forest, but Jane reminds her that BuzzBlast’s focus is on pop culture material, not ghost stories, and asks about her lip gloss review. Amelia says she already finished it, showing Jane the video, and begs the latter to let her do the Dinohenge story. Jane reluctantly agrees, but demands that Amelia make it a factual story about a local landmark, which she promises it will be as Jane goes into her office, Amelia is psyched at this opportunity.

Amelia goes into the forest, armed with a Spook Snare and video camera, recording her as she goes deeper into the forest. She picks up a signal and sees a being moving in the fog, shooting a net at the being to trap it. However, it turns out that Amelia caught a real-life person wearing a white poncho, but she manages to free him after accidentally shocking him with the voltage button. The man finds that he is running late to meet with his mother at Dinohenge, but fortunately, Amelia says she is going there as well, bringing a map along to lead them to the landmark.

As they walk, the man introduces himself as Ollie Akana, explaining that he and his mother just moved to Pine Ridge to unearth some of the city's history. The two make it to Dinohenge, a mysterious monument featuring statues of six dinosaurs in a circle (Tyrannosaurus Rex, Triceratops, Ankylosaurus, Sabertooth Tiger, Stegosaurus, and Mosasaurus), where Amelia is introduced to Dr. Lani Akana, Ollie’s mother, who has already set up equipment for research. Dr. Akana wants to solve the mystery of Dinohenge with a scanner mounted on a drone that can detect underground structures. She activates the drone, but when the scanner activates and scans the statues, the statues’ eyes glow different colors as an earthquake occurs. Just as the earthquake stops, Dr. Akana sees that the scanner picked up a secret chamber that's hidden right underneath Dinohenge, but before going any further, the Park Warden, Carlos Garcia, comes in, asking them to leave since they have no authorization to be at Dinohenge. When Amelia tries to tell him that she's doing a BuzzBlast story, he dismisses her and asks Dr. Akana to accompany him to the Park's HQ to file a report, which she agrees, and tells Ollie to pack up their gear as they have all the data needed for now.

As Ollie and Amelia pack up, the latter explains that she and Warden Garcia do not have the best history as she made him angry seventeen times due to her belief in ghosts. However, that comment upsets Ollie as he realizes that Amelia shot the net at him because she mistook him for a ghost, leading to an argument over their beliefs as Ollie believes in the truth and evidence of proof where Amelia says that they'll just have to agree to disagree about the subject. Before going any further, they see a purple knight teleport down with a scanner, where they behind the Tricera Statue. The knight's scanner manages to pick up an energy source that's coming from underground. Confused that it's under the dinosaur statues, the knight strikes his sword down onto the ground, creating a massive hole, and goes down into the caverns as his scanner locks onto the energy source, with Ollie and Amelia following him.

The two make it to the chamber they discovered earlier, where they see statues in the center of the area, before they hear a noise and hide. They see the knight as he continues to look for the energy source as a door opens to reveal a talking bipedal cyborg dinosaur, trying to awaken her friend Zayto. The knight attacks her, demanding to know where the energy source was located and warns her that he, who calls himself Void Knight, is too powerful for her to match. However, the dinosaur says that her friend Zayto would be a better match, revealing a Red Power Ranger in a stasis chamber, only for Void Knight to slash at the panel controlling the chamber, damaging it. Void Knight once again demands answers from the dinosaur, but before attacking her, Ollie protects her with a Saber he pulled off the wall, while Amelia shoots a net from her Spook Snare at Void Knight, before turning up the voltage button to electrocute him. Knowing that the net will not hold Void Knight for long, the dinosaur pulls out a Key and tells Ollie to use it in conjunction with the Saber to activate the statues, known as the Hengemen. The dinosaur tosses the Key, but Void Knight grabs it mid-throw, placing the Key into his Saber, which activates the Hengemen and places them under his command before they surround Ollie and Amelia.

Ollie and Amelia try their best against the Hengemen with what skills they have, with Amelia even pulling another Saber off the wall in self-defense. Still, they are outmatched and soon get surrounded by the foot soldiers. As that happens, Void Knight continues his search for the energy source while the dinosaur tries her best to wake up Zayto, but the console is too damaged. Suddenly, blue and pink energy envelop Ollie and Amelia's Chromafury Sabers and it sends a wave of energy through their bodies towards their left wrists, creating Dino Fury Morphers. Seeing this, the dinosaur pulls out two more Keys, them being blue and pink respectively, and throws them to Ollie and Amelia. The two put the Keys into their Morphers, which opens up a portal above them and morphs them into the Dino Fury Blue and Pink Rangers. The newly morphed Rangers handle themselves better against the Hengemen while Void Knight finally finds the energy source he was looking for, and presses a button that causes a chest to appear that contains mysterious organisms he refers to as Sporix. Void Knight orders two of the Hengemen to take the chest while the dinosaur tells them to stay away from that chest before she frustratingly hits the control panel. Fortunately, it works as Zayto finally awakens and jumps out of the tube, destroying a few Hengemen along the way. Zayto is confused about what is going on, but the dinosaur, referred to as Solon, tells him that Ollie and Amelia are friendly while Void Knight is getting away with the Sporix Chest.

Zayto stops Void Knight and the Hengemen from getting away, knocking away his scanner in the process, with the Red Ranger asking the purple knight why he has that armor and where he stole it from, but Void Knight demands the Sporix belong to him. The fight resumes with Ollie and Amelia fighting the Hengemen as Zayto takes on Void Knight himself, transforming his Chromafury Saber into a Dino Dagger and tossing it at Void Knight. However, Void Knight deflects the Dagger back at Zayto, and even though the latter dodges, the Dagger hits the chest, which causes it to open and the Sporix to be released. The Sporix Cells leave the chamber as Void Knight chases after them, sealing the cave behind him to prevent the Rangers from following him.

Back outside, Void Knight is furious that all the Sporix Cells got away, but notices that one of them stayed behind, and hatches into a unicorn-like monster, Shockhorn. Void Knight enlists the Sporix Beast's help in finding the rest of the scattered Sporix, and the monster agrees to it, before they both teleport away.

Back in the chamber, Ollie and Amelia demorph, shocked that they became Power Rangers as their Morphers turn into communicators to hide from the public eye. Zayto demorphs as well, revealing that he is an alien with a pair of antennae poking out of his forehead. Zayto introduces himself alongside Solon, but before Ollie and Amelia could introduce themselves, Zayto correctly says their names along with their personality traits after touching their hands. Solon explains that Rafkonians, the beings from Zayto’s planet, can read minds. He asks Solon how long was he in the stasis pod, with her saying that he has been asleep for 65 million years, shocking the alien. As for Solon, she explains to Ollie and Amelia that she is a cyborg dinosaur of the Solonosaurus species and she was heavily injured in an ancient battle against the Sporix, leaving Zayto to explain to the duo what they are dealing with.

65 million years ago, the Sporix invaded Zayto’s homeworld Rafkon, hatching into Sporix Beasts. Zayto led a group of knights to defend their home, but they were outmatched as the Sporix ravaged Rafkon and left few survivors in their destruction. However, the Sporix’s thirst for destruction still remained, so they left Rafkon to invade Earth. The Knights of Rafkon followed them and fought against them alongside the dinosaurs, but the Sporix Beasts became stronger after every battle, eventually gaining the ability to grow giant-sized. The six Knights and their dinosaurs were forced to retreat, but just when things started to look hopeless, the legendary Morphin Masters arrived to help them. Using the power of the Morphin Grid, the Morphin Masters turned the Knights' dinosaur partners into Statues, creating Dinohenge in the process, and bonded their spirits to the Knights, granting them the ability to morph into Power Rangers. The Morphing Masters dubbed the Knights as the Dino Fury Power Rangers and gave them the mission to defend the Earth against the Sporix, even granting them new weapons and Zords to help against the giant Sporix.

Ollie and Amelia guess that because Zayto survived the battle, it meant the Knights defeated the Sporix. However, Zayto said that it was not the kind of victory to celebrate over. While they did capture the Sporix and sealed them inside the chest, the rest of the Knights fell in battle, making Zayto the only one left. Solon adds that they could not destroy the Sporix no matter what they tried, so the only thing they could do was seal them underground and guard them. Zayto explains that his mission is to make sure the Sporix never got loose again, but thanks to Void Knight, he failed. Solon wonders why Void Knight wants the Sporix so bad. Zayto hates to think what he wants with them, but now that the Sporix are free, they'll hide and hibernate throughout the city, until they hatch into Sporix Beasts and the only thing they know is destruction. Zayto says that the three of them are Earth’s only hope in finding and capturing them once again, but before that happens, he will have to put Ollie and Amelia through training. Ollie and Amelia agree to become the new members of the Dino Fury Power Rangers, pleasing Zayto.

Dino Fury Keys in Destination Dinohenge:

Errors[]

  • When Dr. Akana says "Could be millions of years old", her mouth does not move.
  • In the scene where there is a view of the camera from the device that Amelia is using, the background blur and camera view do not sync up with each other.
  • Watching closely reveals that some of the Hengemen can be seen moving slightly despite not being activated yet when Amelia and Ollie search the hidden base.
  • Void Knight's apparent hearing problem:
    • Void Knight does not hear Amelia and Ollie loudly reacting to the Dinohenge base despite being just one room over.
    • Void Knight also doesn't hear Ollie running up to him with the Chromafury Saber block the blow.
  • Amelia uses the Spook Snare on the Void Knight despite having put it down when she entered Dr. Akana's camp and never shown retrieving it or having it until she needs it again.
  • When Ollie pushes a box at the Hengemen, they all fall and then a close-up shows one of them falling a second time.
  • When Amelia and Ollie morph, the visor is down on their Morphers. Once they are morphed, the visor is up again.
