NICO:
Justin! Justin!

Go! Go! Go! Go!

NICO: Hit it!

Whoa.

Yeah!

All right!

( expl*si*n )

JUSTIN:
What was that?

A sonic boom, I think.

Oh, well.

Shift into Turbo!

Hey, last point, guys, huh?

Whoa!

Well, that's

out of here.

It's all right. I'll get it.

Huh?

All right, where did it go?

Wha..?

BOY:
Did you find that ball?

Nico!

I got it!

Got it!

I'll be right there!

Okay.

, ...

Sixty.

diamonds

rubies and...

, pounds of gold.
Whoo!

Oh, it's not enough.

Oh.

Actually, Auntie Divatox,
today's grand total

including cash and
all these fabulous prizes

totals approximately
$ million.

( sobbing )

Like I said I'm practically broke.

ELGAR:
I should be so broke.

DIVATOX:
Hmm. Angel Grove Bank.

ELGAR: A bank!

Why didn't we think
of that before?

They keep lots of cash in there.

Let's make a withdrawal.

( giggling ):
Cool.

You have to promise
you won't tell anyone.

I said I promise.

You have to double-duty
promise.

I triple-duty promise
I won't tell anyone

what you're about to show me.

Okay, come on.

Wow!

It's a spaceship!

Told you.

And there's probably
gooey aliens inside.

( branch snapping )

- ( both gasp )
- ( yelling )

Bulk...

you'll be outside.

Skull, you inside.

Eyes like a hawk, sir.

Nothing gets past me.

Good afternoon, ma'am.

Thank you.

Sorry, ma'am

but I'll have to look
in that grocery bag.

Aha!

The old hide-the-money-
in-the-ice-cream gag, huh?

Move along.

Have a nice day.

We need a plan.

One with razor-sharp timing

an element of surprise

and no chance of failure.

ELGAR: Uh, yeah.

I got it!

Hey, you, follow me.

( laughing )

Now, untie his shoe
while I distract him.

( chuckling )

Lovely day today, isn't it?

Happen to know
what time it is?

No.

Oh, I see.

Well, sorry

to have troubled you.

Oh, by the way

did you know that
your shoes are untied?

Ah, thanks.

Yeah.

( cackling )

( humming )

( sighs )

( alarm ringing )

Oh, no!

Divatox is robbing the bank!

Contact the Rangers, Alpha.

( all screaming )

Hey! You!

( panicked grunting )

Oh! Oh. Oh.

( laughing )

I forgot how much fun
these family outings could be.

Look at all this loot!

- Huh?! What was that?!
- ( gasps )

What's going on?

Come here! Come on!

Show yourself!
Fight like a...

( grunting )

( grunting )

( laughing wildly )

This is way too weird.

Oh! Get off me!

Yay!

- What do we do?
- Hang tight. It might be a trap.

ASHLEY: Yeah.

( moaning )

Whoever or whatever you are,
you are so lucky

I haven't had time

to go to the gym!

( gasping and muttering )

Let's check this out.

Oh, dear.

What exactly happened?

Were they robbing the bank?

- Uh, they were, but...
somebody stopped 'em. - Uh-huh.

Who?

We got all

the loot-a-roonie back.

You did no such a thing!

It stopped them.

But what is "it"? Hey...

maybe that'll
tell us something.

That security camera
was on the whole time.

Hmm...

I wonder.

How did they...?

WOMAN:
Invisible, sort of.

- Go on.
- But I could

see it sometime.

It was like a phantom.

Right, and he moved
like this:

Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!

A phantom, huh?

Boy, it's a good thing

They didn't get all this money.

ASHLEY:
Yeah. It sure is.

Hmm... what?

Did you guys see that?

See what?

Over there.

Behind that pillar.

I don't see anything;
what did it look like?

Huh? I don't know.

It was kind of there
and kind of not.

Can you describe
this phantom to me?

That's the problem.

No one seems to know much.

Yeah, some guy said
it was like a ghost.

It moved so fast,
it was a blur.

Whatever it is, I'm glad
to know it's on our side.

I wonder where it came from.

Probably not Earth.

Hey, wait a minute.

What, Justin?

Uh, nothing.

I've checked everything twice.

Nothing's entered
Earth's atmosphere.

Nothing we can detect,
anyway.

DIMITRIA:
Keep looking, Alpha.

He didn't just appear
out of thin air.

Hmm. You both saw it.

Yeah, that's right.

But it was... invisible.

No, no, no.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, how did you see it

if it was invisible?!

( both stammering )

Yeah.
How did we do that?

It was, uh... ha-half
visible and half ghost.

It was a phantom.

Yeah. What he said.

A phantom?

Well, now I've heard everything!

Get back up there
and don't come back

till you've found enough gold
to sink a ship!

Or else!

Are we talking a big ship,
a little ship, rubber ducky?

Talk to me.

( angry groan )

( growling )

You couldn't get into trouble
here if you tried.

You're not going to try,
are you?

( throat clearing )

Absolutely not, sir.

We've got everything
completely under control.

Fred!

Ha!
This job's going to be so cushy.

What could possib...

possibly happen to us out here?

( laughing )

Ah!

I'd like

to place an order for a
shipload of gold to go.

( maniacal laughter )

This is where
we earn our wings.

Jump in and save the day!

Or we could quit.

( yelps )

( grunting )

( screaming )

Ha! Yes!

I'm hoping

that the surveillance camera

at the bank picked up
a glimpse of this...

Phantom Ranger.

There.

No, that was nothing.

( alarm blaring )

CASSIE:
Those two again.

Now they're at the gold mine.

Time to go to work.

Shift into Turbo!

CARLOS:
Well, what do you know?

Looks like he's been here.

The phantom?

The phantom?!

Don't even mention that
name around me! I'm out of here!

Hey, maybe he's still in the area.

- Could be.
- Let's split up and see if we can find him.

- Right!
- Right!

Everyone keep
their eyes open.

Yeah.

Careful, TJ.

Hello?

Hello?

Are you here?

There he is!

I-I can see him...

but why is he hiding from us?

Huh?

Where'd he go?

I must be going crazy.

I could have sworn
he was right here.

Huh?

( gasps )

Who are you?

A friend.

Where do you come from?

Hello?

Are you still there?

A friend.

Uh, he was in black...

um, some sort of armor coating

with a helmet.

Then just like that...

he was in invisible.

Yo, that's him!

ASHLEY: Wow.
He's invisible until he moves.

CARLOS:
So he isn't human.

He's a ghost.

DIMITRIA:
Rangers, we have determined

that the Planet Eltar

is the source
of the mysterious power.

Perhaps this Phantom Ranger
may be an Eltarian Voyager.

But why would he come here?

If this is true,
no one, not even I

will know his purpose

Until he chooses to tell us.

This Phantom Ranger...

how would he travel here?
Would he, by chance have a spaceship?

Justin, is there something

you want to tell us?

Well... no.

Well, maybe.

It's probably nothing

but I triple-duty
promised not to tell.

Justin, promises can be broken

if there's enough reason.

I know.

I got to go check it out.

Justin, how about

I come with you?

That's okay.

Then be careful.

We're this close.

( footsteps )

( gasps )

Man, you scared me.

What are you doing?

Waiting for the alien.

There is no alien.

Then why are you here?

Hey, can I have one?

Don't!
Those are for the aliens.

Well, I hope they or it
comes back soon.

( evil laughter )

RYGOG:
What did I tell you?

I knew one of them would
lead us to the phantom.

Okay, thanks a lot.
Bye-bye.

Look, if Justin was
in trouble, he'd call.

Nico's mom said he went
to go play soccer.

Justin's probably with him.

Let's just check on him.

That way we can
all stop worrying.

Ooh, why doesn't that phantom
go back to his ship?

When you don't want him

he's all over you like a sunburn

and when you do want him,
he's shy.

Ooh, I like that in a man.

Maybe he's not shy.

He just knows you're waiting.

Perhaps he needs
a little incentive.

Yes. Of course.

Ooh, send Rygog the detonator.

( laughing )

Yes!

( beeping )

What was that?

Um... my watch. See?

Oh, darn,
you have to go home now.

Uh-uh. I have permission
to stay out late.

Aah! Aliens!

Want some cookies?
Aah!

No answer.

( evil laughter )

Well, one way or the other

I'm sure we will be getting

that phantom's attention now.

This'll teach him
not to mess with Divatox.

There. Now I'll just
activate the timer...

and it's ready to go.

I'll send this thing
back into space

in a million pieces!

( laughing )

( grunting )

He tripped.

Hey! Get him!

Run, Nico, run!

( laughing )

It won't be long now.

Thirteen... twelve...

eleven...

ten... nine... eight...

seven...

six...

Help me up!

Huh?

Destroy that spaceship!

Fire the torpedoes!

Alpha! Send the rangers!

We're coming, Justin!

Justin!

Huh?

Huh?

Whoa!

Are you okay?

Huh?

Uh-huh.

Perfect shot!

( laughing )

Nico...

Hey, are you okay, buddy?

Me? I'm fine.

But he's not.

His ship...
it's blown up because of me.

It's still there!

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

I mean... good job.

( laughing )

Wait.

Huh?

I don't know who you are

or why you're here

but thanks for all
your help today.

Yeah!

Great!

Cool!

I just ran and ran.

Nico's the only one that
saw the Power Rangers.

So there were
evil aliens everywhere.

I ran, but one of them
flew in and caught me.

And that's when the
power rangers showed up?

Not yet. First they wanted to
get the good alien's spaceship.

They wanted to blow it up.

Wait. When did the
Power Rangers show up?

In a minute.
They only came to save me...

- They came to save you?
- Did you get their phone number?

Okay, okay, enough tall tales.

Let's play some soccer, boys.

I believe the Power
Rangers saved you.

You do?

Man, I wish you
could've seen them, too.

Hey, I thought you
wanted to play today.

( groans )

Do you think
he'll ever come back?

Like Dimitria said

we'll only know as much
as he wants to tell us.

Spock.

No need to shower me
with love, baby.

Look at all the gold I got.

Show me the money!

One, two, three...
