Plot[]
Tojo Studios is sponsoring a mini-car race, to encourage youth mental and physical strength development.
Meanwhile, Kyosuke is enamored with the famous actress Kurihara Sayuri. However, as Egos is trying to subvert these virtues, they sabotage the race by making the racers disappear.
As Kyosuke, Maria, and Keiko search for the racers, they have trouble distinguishing reality from the movie filming going on, wandering into a gangster movie, a runaway train, and an obake horror set.

- Lisa Komaki, who previously portrayed Peggy Matsuyama (Momorenger) in Himitsu Sentai Gorenger, has a guest appearance in this episode.
- Komaki appeared in the first 24 episodes as the voice actress of Diane Martin, but this is her only physical appearance and her final appearance in Sentai.
- While the opening and ending changes in this episode due to last episode's cast change, most notable is the first shot of the untransformed heroes, which finally includes the female hero.
