* PlotTwist: Upon regaining control of the Dinozords, it appears that the Dinozords are completely destroyed and Angel Grove is doomed when Lord Zeddd sinks them into a lava fissure and enlarges Pirahntishead. However Alpha 5 is able to restore them by recalibrating the morphin' grid and returning them to their hiding places thus finally paving the way for the thunderzord upgrade to win.

* BigNo:
** Zedd over the Rangers regaining control of the old Zords.
** Jason, as the old Zords are being destroyed.



* EvolvingCredits: A brand new intro debuts here, featuring Zedd & the Thunderzords.



* DefiantToTheEnd: Upon losing his weapon and seeing the Thunder Megazord gearing up for the finisher, Pirahntishead vows to tear the Rangers apart with his bare fins.
* EvolvingCredits: A brand new intro debuts here, featuring Zedd & the Thunderzords.
* FriendshipMoment: As Tommy takes a dim view of his weakening powers, the others assure him he'll always be part of the team and refuse to let him give up hope.



* NoSell:
** Downplayed. Pirahntishead isn't destroyed by the Power Blaster, but it still left him in pain and sparking. He's out of the action, until Zedd tosses him a grenade.
** Played straight when Pirahntishead learns the hard way that he can't control the Thunder Megazord the way he did the Dino Zords.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Zordon's unforgettable reaction to seeing what's become of Rita (stuck in a tiny dumpster and singing "Ninety-nine bottles of slime on the wall" to pass the time). Zordon proceeds to mock-sing it and laugh at her.



* SomethingWeForgot: When it's all over, Tommy asks what the Rangers never had time to consider until now: "Whatever happened to Rita?"



* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Despite how massive the Dinozords are, when they blast at the racers they confusingly ask "What was that?" as if they couldn't see them. Especially egregious considering the quakes the zords' footsteps make long before they're usually seen.

* VillainRespect: When the Rangers form the Thunder Megazord, Zedd is admittedly impressed by Zordon's surprises.
* YankTheDogsChain: The Rangers spend an episode and a half trying to regain control of their Zords. Mere moments after they finally succeed, an enraged Zedd sends the Zords plummeting into Earth's depths, effectively destroying them.

* {{Hypocrite}}: In his cameo, Finster scoffs at Zedd's rage, saying if they'd used one of his monsters, the plan would have succeeded. This despite the fact that Pirantishead did some genuine damage to the heroes throughout the three-parter and none of Finster's creations ever approached that level of victory (Lokar excluded, but he wasn't a Finster original).

The only hope of regaining control of the Dinozords from Pirahntishead is Billy's latest invention. If they can get it to work, Zordon will then infuse each of the main five Dinozords with a lightning charge, causing them to morph into the mighty new Thunderzords! The Red Dragon, the Yellow Griffin, the Blue Unicorn, the Black Lion, and the Pink Firebird can then come together to form the Thunder Megazord. But will it be enough to defeat the power of Lord Zedd's Pirahntishead? Meanwhile, Bulk & Skull, saved by the Rangers for the umpteenth time, begin their quest to discover the secret identities of the Power Rangers!
