(A situation which is shortly remedied by the Lilac ranger, who is from an alternate reality). Weeta rides on an emotional roller coaster for about four more episodes until her brother, Tito, accidentally releases the Dark rangers that she stole from Lord Fred and the ensuing battle destroys them, but not before the evil Scarlet ranger destroys Xordon and the Red Ranger. Weeta's relationship with her brother is off to a rocky start to say the least. Then Tito has the audacity to slander the now dead Xordon and Weeta defects to the side of good. Enraged, Tito calls their father, Master Bile, who has eight special orbs and unleashes the acid orb upon them in retaliation. The orb is embodied within a monster who turns out to be the supposedly dead brother of the midnight ranger, which creates an even larger dilemma for the team.
