The Queen's Return

The Queen's Return
Airdate: September 02, 2000

With the planets aligned, the monster named Spellbinder begins the ritual to bring back Queen Bansheera.		The ceremony creates a dark cloud over Mariner Bay, which the Rangers all notice.

They head back to headquarters, where Ryan tells them what the demons are planning.		The cloud sends out energy bolts which cause mass destruction in the city, endangering civilians.

The Rangers deploy the Rail Rescues, and put out several fires with the Rescue Zords.		Carter and Kelsey help the local firefighters evacuate a burning building.

Ryan has pinpointed the location of the ceremony, and sneaks in to see what is happening.		Vypra discovers him, and after she roughs him up a little, he is captured by the Batlings.

The ceremony continues, and creates a beam of energy that extends to the sky.		The Rangers rush to the source of the energy, and storm into the ceremony.

Blue and Yellow chase Loki outside, while Pink and Green hold off Vypra.		Carter battles the Batlings, and frees Ryan from their grasp.

Ryan morphs, and he and Carter take out the Spellbinder.		Spellbinder revives himself, and grows into a giant.

The Rangers call on the Lightspeed Megazord and the Solarzord, but Spellbinder is too tough.		The Rangers form the Lightspeed Solarzord, but the Queen begins her return to our physical plane.

Finally! The Queen has come back to Mariner Bay! She immediately whips up a tidal wave which threatens the Aquabase and Mariner Bay.		Things look bad, but Ryan has an idea. With the power source unprotected, he goes down and destroys it, cutting off the energy beam.

Ryan's move has cleared the tidal wave, and weakened Spellbinder. The Rangers take the chance and destroy him with the Lightspeed Solarzord.		Olympius returns from being sent to his room by Loki, and he is really upset over the failure. He finally asserts himself and puts Loki in his place.

Queen Bansheera appears, but in a horribly disfigured body - a result of the Rangers interrupting the ceremony. Olympius swears vengeance for mommy's condition!		Ryan knows that now more than ever do the Rangers need a way of putting the demons away for good, so he leaves the Rangers to find out how the demons were imprisoned.
