Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always

**Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Once & Always** is an American superhero web special serving to commemorate the 30th anniversary of both Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and the Power Rangers franchise. In the special, the Power Rangers assemble to stop Robo-Rita Repulsa from her diabolical plans.

     In 2022, Billy Cranston is attacked by a robotic Rita Repulsa and a gang of Putties. He morphs into the Blue Ranger and leaps into battle, later on joined by the other Power Rangers, Jason, Kimberly, Zack, Trini, and Tommy. Billy is knocked to the edge of a cliff, where Robo-Rita attempts to finish him off with a lethal blast from her magic wand. However, Trini saves Billy by diving into the path of the blast and is killed. Robo-Rita then retreats into the Dark Dimension, leaving the remaining Rangers to grieve over the loss of Trini. At the Kwan residence, Billy and Zack argue about how and when to break the news to Trini's daughter, Minh. However, she walks in on the conversation and immediately runs off. Billy tells Zack that they need to tell her everything.

A year later, Zack has become Minh's new legal guardian and moved into the Kwan residence. They go to the cemetery to visit Trini's grave, only to walk into an ambush from Robo-Rita and two of her monsters, Snizzard and Minotaur. Snizzard captures Jason, Tommy and Kimberly and imprisons them in a machine that will slowly drain their energy. Knowing they're outmatched, Billy, Zack and Minh retreat. Back home, Minh expresses her desire to get revenge on Robo-Rita to Zack and Billy, but they advise her not to get involved and let them sort things out. She angrily lashes out at Billy, blaming him for her mother's death.
Zack and Billy head to the hidden command center under Billy's Cranston Tech headquarters, where it is revealed that Billy's attempt to revive the deceased Zordon accidentally created Robo-Rita; the evil particles that were purged from the original Rita Repulsa from Zordon's Z-Wave years ago took over the body of Alpha 8. Alpha's successor, Alpha 9 initiates the Bandora Protocol, summoning all Power Ranger teams throughout the universe. The call is answered by former Pink Ranger Kat Hillard and former Red Ranger Rocky DeSantos. While this is going on, Minh learns of the Putty gangs invading worldwide. Driven by the desire for revenge, she grabs Trini's Power Morpher and sets out.
Kat and Rocky are given proxy Power Coins so they can again morph into Power Rangers. However, Snizzard and Minotaur have been tracking Rangers all over the universe, using the Putties as bait to lure them into the same machine that trapped the other Rangers. Upon learning of this, the Rangers de-morph and fall back. Back at the command center, the Rangers discover that Minh is at the old juice bar and is under attack. Minh is able to hold her own briefly, but is overpowered after a failed attempt to use Trini's morpher. Zack and Rocky teleport to the juice bar, defeat the Putties, retrieve Minh and bring her back to the command center. Zack takes Trini's morpher away from Minh, scolds her for seeking revenge instead of justice, and after a heart-to-heart conversation where Zack tells Minh exactly what Billy was trying to accomplish, Minh finally calms down.
At a junkyard, Billy, Rocky and Kat morph to lure out Snizzard and Minotaur, then trap them on a giant electromagnet. The Rangers then use cloaking devices that Billy developed to make them invisible so they can infiltrate Rita's Moon Palace using a spaceship provided by SPA agents (and former Rangers) Adam Park and Aisha Campbell. However, after the Rangers leave, Minh grabs a spare device and Trini's morpher and escapes the command center. Minh commandeers the RADBUG, Billy's flying car and takes off toward the junkyard, where she is abducted by Robo-Rita. The Rangers find Rita's machine in her palace, seeing that she has already captured members of multiple Ranger teams. Billy discovers that Rita has been creating a time portal. Rita and her monsters arrive with Minh in tow and reveals her plan - to travel to the past and kill the Rangers before they are recruited by Zordon.
Rita attempts one more time to kill Billy with her wand, but Minh breaks free and takes the shot instead. She miraculously survives, and notices Trini's morpher is glowing. The Rangers morph, and this time Minh is successful in morphing into the Yellow Ranger. Rita then makes Snizzard grow but then Billy impales Rita with his Power Lance. Billy has Alpha teleport the Zords to the moon where they form the Megazord. Billy and Minh take Megazord into battle against Snizzard, while the remaining Rangers defeat Minotaur in the palace. The Rangers join Billy and Minh in the Megazord while a wounded Rita attempts to use the portal. The Rangers destroy Snizzard, which destroys the machine and releases the captive Rangers. The Rangers immediately teleport back to the palace and finish off Rita.
Back on earth, Adam and Aisha load the freed Rangers onto their spaceship and set course for Aquitar, where they would heal up before returning home. Billy, Zack and Minh celebrate their victory at the juice bar while they reminisce about their past adventures.
