Having learned part of the truth of her past, Amelia becomes determined to learn the full truth, while Void Queen begins a shocking transformation...
Tropes:
- Brick Joke:
- Back in "The Makeover", the first thing that Amelia did — when she and Zayto swapped bodies — was try to summon his antennae. Once she learns of her origins as a Rafkonian, Amelia summons her own antennae.
- Pop-Pop is still obsessed about Area 62 being dangerously radioactive when it isn't.
- Chekhov's Gun: The fact The Power of Love breaks Sporix-based brainwashing, freeing Tarrick from being Void King and turning him good again.
- Devour the Dragon: In order to fuel her transformation, Void Queen begins absorbing all the Sporix into herself.
- Do Not Adjust Your Set: Void Queen hijacks an emergency Buzzblast segment to tell mankind what she's up to, and then begins her transformation.
- Happily Adopted: Even after learning that Pop-Pop wasn't her biological grandfather, Amelia still treats him like he is.
- Hoist by Their Own Petard: Void King ends up ensnaring Amelia with her own net launcher when she forgot she had set it down.
- Hope Spot: Amelia finds the safe in Area 62 that Pop-Pop directed her to, and opens it to find... nothing. Nothing whatsoever.
- How Did You Know? I Didn't: When Slyther confronts Amelia, he tells her she'll pay for infiltrating the Voids' base. When Amelia shows surprise that Area 62 was the villains' lair, having gone there just to learn about her parents, Slyther is sheepish he let it slip.
- Humans Are Bastards: Void Queen's motivation for hating humans is revealed in that the government captured her and Tarrick when they landed and kept them prisoner at Area 62. Then when the base was about to explode, they had Pop-Pop take their infant daughter to safety, but assume they didn't make it before the explosion, leading Santaura to become a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds.
- Internal Reveal: The Rangers discover that the Voids have been hanging out in Area 62 all this time, thanks to Slyther accidentally blabbing.
- Luke, I Am Your Father: Amelia discovers that Tarrick and Santura are her parents, and thanks to Rafkonian telepathy, Tarrick finds out she's his daughter.
- No One Could Survive That!: The reason Tarrick never came looking for Amelia, and the reason Santura's been so pissed at mankind. They figured Amelia died in the same disaster that badly injured Santura.
- The Patient Has Left the Building: Pop-Pop, despite his supposedly life-threatening injuries, refuses to sit down and recover.
- Perfect Disguise, Terrible Acting: Slyther's impersonation of Warden Garcia falls flat on its face when Amelia wonders why the Warden, supposedly leading the evacuation of the city, would be in an abandoned military base at all. He tries claiming he's taking a coffee break. When it becomes obvious how this isn't going to work, he attacks.
- Poor Communication Kills: If Pop-Pop was able to understand that Area 62 was never dangerously radioactive as he thought it was, he would've been able to tell Tarrick that his daughter was fine and put a kibosh on the whole series' plot with the Sporix and Void Queen's revenge on humanity.
- The Reveal:
- As the episode's title suggests, we finally get the full story of Void Knight and Void Queen's backstory. They're Rafkonians who came to Earth looking for materials. They were found by the government workers at Area 62 and permanently imprisoned, until a mysterious disaster happened, separating them from their baby. Tarrick rigged up the cryogenic tube to preserve Santura when she was badly injured in that disaster, and found the Dino Knight Morpher while looking through the base for a way to revive her. It's also why he knew about the Sporix in the first place.
- Moreover, Void Knight handed the baby Amelia to a random janitor for protection. Said random janitor was Pop-Pop.
- Shoo Out the Clowns: Mucus gets nommed when she obliviously touches Void Queen's cocoon, and it absorbs her.
- Storming the Castle: When Amelia goes to Area 62 to find information on her parents, she inadvertently does this, unaware that it was the Voids' base.
- Tally Marks on the Prison Wall: In the flashback, Tarrick makes tally marks on the wall of his and Santura's cell. They've apparently been there for 62 days before the disaster happened.
- Villain: Exit, Stage Left: Slyther teleports out rather than fight the Rangers.
- Wham Episode: The truth about Void Knight and Void Queen is revealed; particularly in that Amelia is their daughter.
- The Worf Effect: The Rangers are shocked and realize the cocoon is bad news when it vaporizes the normally indestructible Mucus.
