But the end is always a new beginning... #2- A ZEO BEGINNING, PART II (April 23, 1996) Written by Douglas Sloan Directed by Isaac Florentine Zordon tells the Rangers that they no longer need fear the menace of Zedd and Rita-even they have fled before the terrifying power of the Rangers' new foe: The Machine Empire has arrived, and is intent on making the planet Earth their next conquest.
