Little Kid Rescue Soldiers (ちびっ子救急戦士 Chibikko Kyūkyū Senshi) is the twenty-fourth episode of Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive. It is the prelude of the long-awaited event of the Saima Family will arrive soon: the Grand Cross.
Synopsis[]
Denus transforms the GoGoFive males and participants in a Grand Cross conference into children, forcing Matsuri to protect them.
Plot[]
Drop continues to gestate in his cocoon. Denus lectures him, acknowledging that Grandiene wishes to make him the heir to the Psyma Clan, but she intends to take his place by conqueroring the Earth before Grandiene's descent.
The GoGoFive are experiencing something like a summer vacation during a heatwave. They reminisce over one time where Matsuri got lost hiking. Mondo reveals they've been invited to a luxury resort hotel by the beach. The team travel there by van.
In actuality, GoGoFive have been invited to guard a conference of scientists who are investigating Zylpheeza. Matsuri spots a beautiful woman at the pool, recognizing her as Denus; she and her siblings (sans Matoi) give chase. During Mondo's lecture, the powers go out. Matoi and the scientists within the room are turned into children by Zairen. GoGoFive return, discovering the children. Matsuri recognizes one as Matoi, but the children lack most of their recent memories.
Denus makes her presence known and reveals Zairen's powers. Matsuri's brothers jump in the way to save Matsuri. Denus prepares to slaughter the children, and Matsuri defends them by transforming into GoPink. GoPink takes the fight outside, battling a horde of Imps and dueling Denus herself. When Denus prepares to make a final strike, GoPink counters with the V-lancer, scarring Denus across the cheek. Zairen intervenes to save Denus, but the GoGoFive children intervene to save their sister (who they only recognize as being a strong and brave woman). The Tatsumi family heads to the rocks of the shore, where GoPink helps them hide at the bottom of the cliffside.
Matsuri makes them a campfire to warm them up. The children worry about their sister and cry for their mother. Young Matoi tries to comfort young Daimon. Matsuri remembers the time they got lost on a hike as children, and her siblings looked for her even amidst a terrible thunderstorm.
Using monstrous bats as roving speakers, Denus transmits a message for GoPink: she is holding the other children hostage. The young Tatsumi kids want to return to their hotel, where they believe their sister is being held. Within their prison, Mondo Tatsumi completes a formula explaining the Psyma Clan's powers.
Denus lures Matsuri to a cave, where she takes Matsuri prisoner. Denus plans to kill the other children and offer GoGoFive as a sacrifice to her mothers. Meanwhile, the young Matoi and his siblings lead a guerilla campaign against the Imps on the rocks. Using ropes and boulders, they pull the Imps into the water. With the defenders gone, the other children are sprung free.
Denus and Matsuri are now dueling at the rocks. Denus uses Matsuri's manacles and chains to nearly choke her, but the children distract Denus. Young Matoi recognizes Matsuri as Matsuri. Matsuri transforms into GoPink and de-wings Zairen, causing the children to return to adulthood. The other members of GoGoFive transform. The team defeats Zairen.
Pierre arrives at the rocks and revives Zairen with the Golem Card. Zairen is revived and transformed into a massive titan beast. GoGoFive summon Grand Liner. As Zairen gets Grand Liner in a grab and hold, Liner Boy arrives to free them. Together, the two mechas destroy Zairen.
Now, GoGoFive get to swim in the pool at the resort. However, none of them remember much from their time as kids, though they remember Matsuri through the haze as being their mother. Matsuri summons them back to the conference, however, revealing the Grand Cross will come as soon as ten days. On the monitor, a fanged visage of Grandiene appeares.
