Rocky, Aisha, and Adam compete in a triathlon. Lord Zedd sends down the Beamcaster monster, who places the citizens of Angel Grove under a spell to worship his evil alien master. It'll take some alteration of signals, and some help by those three new guys, to cancel Beamcaster's transmission for good.
