* BittersweetEnding: Cole is devastated to learn what became of his parents, but he's able to put his anger behind him and find peace. Meanwhile, Toxica and Jindrax unleash a new ArcVillain.

* TheCavalry: Merrick wasn't at the hospital when Adler pulled off his trap. While Adler tells Cole his backstory, Merrick is off searching for everyone. He eventually finds the warehouse and frees the others, while Cole battles Master Org.

* EvilIsPetty: Adler killed his two friends over perceived slights. He also launches his attack on the Rangers because his current fortunes have taken a turn for the worse lately.

* KickTheDog: Master Org reveals to Cole that he not only killed his parents but he enjoyed every minute of it.

** Adler goes out of his way to avoid the D-word or any such related term, using lesser terms like "finished off" instead. On the other hand, there is no other ambiguity about what he did to Cole's parents, which normally wouldn't have been allowed. The writers were able to do this because they lied to the Fox executives about Cole's parents somehow being revived later and never told Disney executives about the storyline. Ironically, this was the last episode to premiere on Fox Kids before the ChannelHop to ABC Kids.

* YankTheDogsChain: Cole had previously held out hope that his parents were still alive. Not only are they not, but he's being told this by their killer.

Dr Viktor Adler, who went missing twenty years ago along with the Evans in the Amazon jungle, finally resurfaces. Cole hopes he can finally shed light onto what happened to his parents, but it's all a trap set by Master Org! Upon discovering the truth, will the Red Ranger give in to vengeance and become as bad as his enemy? Meanwhile, Jindrax and Toxica seek out a new master.
