Mistakes
- Approaching a cave, Leo remarked, “This is where I last saw Mike,” apparently referring to either a recent dream/hallucination or his deceit by Mutantrum in “The Lights of Orion”. (00:50)
- During Magna Defender’s arrival, Kendrix went from being on the ground to getting up to down on the ground again. (07:30)
- It is unknown why the monster was facing away from the zord, so the Saber’s attack merely destroyed it’s back. (17:57)
- The Galaxy Megazord Saber was shown morphing into the Condor Galactazord to use the missile mode, but the Condor was a separate entity on the Megazord’s back. (18:04)
- Treacheron misquoted a biblical saying as “those who live by the sword shall come to their end by the sword.” (18:43)
