Mistakes
- Diabolico’s dialogue about the Cobra tatoo was different in this episode’s recap. (00:19)
- Two techs casually passed by Ryan, with the girl cheerfully suggesting to the guy that they go to the desert, but the motive for this suggestion is unknown. (06:01)
- Describing their defeat Joel remarked the Unilaser had bounced right off Troika, although this had not been shown during the brief battle. (06:32)
- For some reason, Carter’s visor was open upon entering Pyro Rescue 1. (12:48)
- After smashing into a building in the Lightspeed Megazord, the Rangers were shown in the cockpit of the as-yet-unintroduced Omega Megazord. (14:45)
- The panel containing the holder for the Battle Booster in the Lightspeed Megazord was labelled, “Max-V Control System”. (15:20)
- When Diabolico returned fire, Carter had the Lightspeed Solarzord dodge left, allowing the blast to blow up a building where the Megazord had been standing. (16:09)
