One Last Hope is the 27th episode of Power Rangers Turbo.
Synopsis
To defeat the Metallosaurus, the Phantom Ranger gives the Power Rangers a fleet of new Rescuezords, transported into action by the Phantom Ranger's own Zord, Artillatron.
Plot
Up on the Space Base, the Chromites are hard at work upgrading Metallosaurus by reverse-engineering the systems from the captured Turbo Megazord. As General Havoc supervises, Porto arrives with new information regarding the Phantom Ranger. According to data taken from the Megazord's systems, his life and powers are sustained by a Power Ruby worn on his chest. By removing it, his power can be controlled. Up in the main deck, Divatox is fawning over another one of Havoc's gifts to her: a neutron laser for blasting intruders.
In the Power Chamber, the Turbo Rangers are still trying to be patient as they wait for the Phantom Ranger to offer his help. Deciding to take the initiative, they morph and go on patrol through the city. Elsewhere, Bulk and Skull are still hosting the Monster Tour with Lt. Stone, and the guests are demanding that they see the Power Rangers and/or a monster like the brochure promises. Stone cites the brochure's claim as a misprint and leads the group to a skyscraper for some panoramic views, where they all get a view of Metallosaurus as it returns for another rampage through Angel Grove. Bulk and Skull don't notice as they slip away from the tour to get some lunch.
Having spotted Havoc and his massive monster but with no Turbo Megazord, T.J. and Ashley try to fight back from Lightning Cruiser. They are instead shot down by Divatox's neutron laser. When the rest of the Rangers arrive in Storm Blaster, they attempt the Turbine Laser to no effect and get caught up a Piranhatron fight before the Phantom Ranger appears. He tells them to follow him into a hole that opens up in the sidewalk and into an underground passage, which is caving in due to Metallosaurus stomping around above them and Divatox blasting away with her neutron laser. Using their Auto Blasters to clear debris, the six Rangers follow the path.
As Dimitria and Alpha 6 try to contact the Rangers and Metallosaurus starts tearing into a skyscraper with Bulk and Skull trapped inside, a loud rumbling gets everybody's attention. The Phantom Ranger has deployed Artillatron, his giant carrier Zord, and the Rangers have arrived in their new Rescuezords to save the day. Using the Rescuezords, they are able to throw Metallosaurus off-balance and also indirectly save Bulk and Skull by keeping the skyscraper from falling. When Metallosaurus knocks a giant gas tank towards the Rangers, T.J. uses his Rescuezord to push it back underneath the behemoth's legs, blowing it up and sending it back to the Space Base.
In the Youth Center, Bulk and Skull are preparing for their next tour with safety padding, helmets, and rescue flares. Up on the Space Base, Porto and the Chromites are still making modifications to the Turbo Megazord while Divatox and Havoc are itching for revenge against the Phantom Ranger.
