Going Viral is the third episode of Power Rangers Megaforce. The episode introduces new attack cards, as well as the Seaick Brother Card, the Sea Brothers Zords and the Sea Megazord.
Synopsis[]
When Noah has trouble lifting Jake's heavy weapon he begins to doubt his abilities, until he learns that believing in yourself is all that's necessary to get any job done.
Plot[]
Jake brings his Snake Axe to Noah to have some adjustments made. Noah can barely lift it. He begins to wonder if he's cut out to be a hero. Jake tells him it's not about muscles but about believing oneself.
Meanwhile, Vrak suggests to Admiral Malkor that perhaps they can conquer without the use of an army. They send out Virox.
Virox proceeds to spread his virus in the city and which later turns them into Loogies. Prior to transforming, the infected people infect others with a cold.
Troy, Gia and Emma encounter the humans turning into Loogies. They're at a loss how to help the infected human/Loogies without hurting them.
Meanwhile, on the way to help, Jake realizes he's left his Snake Axe at the school.
Noah goes ahead to battle, and manages to help a woman cornered by Virox. Jake arrives later to help. Noah informs Troy at the other battle site to quarantine the infected. Troy and the rest tire out and herd the infected. Using new Power Cards, they create a temporary holding facility.
Jake, however, is taken down. Noah pushes on, and seeing how his Shark Bowgun has no effect, he decides to use the Snake Axe, wielding it as a weight, to wing onto Virox's weak spot.
The Rangers get together to defeat Virox with the Megaforce Blaster. Vrak uses his Zombats to make Virox grow.
The Megaforce Rangers use the Gosei Great Megazord. However, Noah is granted a new Power Card, which allows him to summon the Sea Brothers Zords which in turn form the Sea Gosei Great Megazord. With it, they destroy Virox's viral sac and defeat him. Gia is impressed by Noah's resourcefulness.
Back at school, Noah presents the Snake Axe back to Jake. After Jake accidentally takes out some school computers (it is not known if he is punished for this or not), Noah notes that the titanium alloy he added to the axe made it 40% lighter than before. Jake worries he might not get used to the weight that's been shaved off the Axe. Noah jokes that he'll just have to believe in himself.

- When Troy explains how he, Emma, and Gia trapped the humans as Loogies, the Loogie's gloves were white instead of black.
- On the card to summon the Sea Brothers Zords, the words 'Seaick Brothers' can clearly be seen.
- Jakes manages to fit his Snake Ax in his guitar case. But when he opens it, there is a tearing hold on the side.
Notes[]
- This episode confirms the name of the city where the Rangers live and the action is taking place in Harwood County.
- Noah destroys the concrete container by smashing it with the ax. This could have put the people inside in major harm.
- The next season's third episode also focuses on the Blue Ranger.
