Ernie's Youth Center & Juice Bar sponsors an International Food Festival, in cooperation with Angel Grove High. The five Ranger teens are among those involved. Rita sends down Finster's latest creation, the aptly named Pudgy Pig, to consume the festival's food supply, as well as anything else he can fit into his hungry mouth.

The Ranger teens & Ernie plan a surprise party at the Juice Bar for Zack. The secrecy leads him to believe they've all forgotten about his birthday. Rita shows she cares, by sending down a special treat, a vicious black knight monster known as Nasty Knight. The Black Ranger faces off with him, Power Axe to sword.

With the Ranger teens distracted, Baboo sneaks to Earth and drugs their lemonade with a magical potion. Billy & Kimberly are the only two to take a sip, but the effects on them are quite odd. They both start acting like punks, picking on kids at the high school, and even scaring Bulk & Skull. The other 3 Rangers have more important issues to deal with, namely Rita's Terror Toad monster. Zordon traps the two out of control teens in the Command Center, and sends Alpha off on a dangerous mission al

There's a big party coming up at the Youth Center, but the nerdy Billy is as dateless as ever. By coincidence, he bumps into an equally brainy girl named Marge, and the two hit it off. Soon, Rita's ally, Madame Woe, mistakes Marge for a Ranger, and captures her. The actual Rangers come to her rescue, combining their powers, and destroying her without even needing their Megazord. Billy & Marge happily go to the dance together, and she's never seen nor mentioned again afterwards.

Kim goes for flying lessons with her pilot uncle Steve. Bulk & Skull tag along. Rita's henchman Squatt spikes Steve's drink with a sleeping potion, which kicks into effect while in the skies over Angel Grove.

It's hobby week at Angel Grove High. The Ranger teens have all brought in various items reflective of their personalities. Trini brings in her doll collection, along with her favorite one of all, a blue elf named Mr. Ticklesneezer. Rita ends up stealing him, and turning him into a monster. Ticklesneezer goes around shrinking things and collecting them into bottles. This includes the Megazord, as the Rangers meet their first real defeat, only to have it turn out to all be just a dream of Trini's.

The fair has come to Angel Grove, and the Ranger teens enjoy a day at it, with Trini's cousin Sylvia. The fair turns out to be a front for Rita, with numerous Putties as clowns. One such clown, named Pineapple, turns Sylvia into a cardboard cutout. He reveals himself to be a creature named Pineoctopus. Billy & Alpha solve Sylvia's 2-dimensional dilemma, and the Rangers shut down the evil carnival for good.

In part 1of this thrilling multi-part episode, Rita casts a spell on a new Angel Grove High student by the name of Tommy Oliver and lures him to the dark side. She then uses her previously unmentioned sixth power coin, which apparantly she had won in a battle with Zordon, to turn him into her evil Green Ranger. His mission: To destroy the other 5 Rangers.

Still recovering from the mysterious Green Ranger's attack, the Rangers try to undo the damage he's done to the command center. Meanwhile, Rita gives her evil Green Ranger the Sword of Darkness to seal the deal, and Tommy manages to teleport and trap Jason into Rita's Dark Dimension where he must do battle with Goldar.

As the four remaining Rangers continue their search for Jason, unaware that he's trapped in Rita's Dark Dimension, they are then attacked by the vicious Scorpina. Eventually, Alpha is able to locate Jason and teleports him back into the command center, but the evil Green Ranger is still on the loose and the Ranger's still have no idea who is behind that green mask.

As the Rangers use their Megazord to battle Goldar, Scorpina and the Green Ranger, they are crushed in battle and forced to retreat back to the command center. Meanwhile, due to the small visit the Green Ranger paid to the command center earlier, Alpha is now able to identify that Tommy Oliver is the evil Green Ranger.

The Rangers, now aware that their new friend Tommy is the man behind the Green Ranger suit, continue to do battle with him as he summons his Dragon Zord. When the Sword of Darkness is destroyed and Rita's spell on Tommy is lifted, the Rangers and Zordon extend Tommy an offer to join them in the fight against evil, making it now a total of six Rangers on the side of good.
