The red ranger reveals himself to be Andros. After initially sending the four Earth rangers on their way, Andros comes back to save them from Astronema’s quantrons and give them their new ranger morphers. While back on the Astro Megaship, the rangers are again attacked by the criosphinx ship, but Alpha figures out the code to transform the Astro Megaship and the space shuttle into the Astro Megazord, with which they destroy the criosphinx ship.
