The Plot: Rise of the Dragon
The story follows three major arcs as the team transitions from rookies to a cohesive unit:
1. The Green Ranger's Descent
Rita isn't dead; she's a ghost in the machine. Through the shard, she begins whispering to Tommy, playing on his feelings of isolation. She grants him the Dragon Coin, which doesn't require a Command Center connection. Unlike the others, Tommy's transformation is jagged, painful, and glows with a sickly emerald light.
2. Civil War in Angel Grove
The Rangers are blindsided. A masked warrior with a Dragon Shield begins dismantling their Zords one by one. The action sequences are grounded and brutal, mirroring the 2017 film's aesthetic. Jason (Dacre Montgomery) feels a personal responsibility to "save" this kid, leading to a clash of leadership styles within the team.
3. The Return of Lord Zedd
The Green Ranger isn't the final boss-he's the herald. The massive energy surge from the Green Ranger's attacks acts as a beacon for Lord Zedd, Rita's former commander, who views her failure as an opportunity to "strip-mine" Earth for its life force.
