Airdate: 10/15/93

|
 |
| A woman sings in English on the
radio, "Don't you know I can smell your
cigarettes?" as a father and his daughter
drive into a gas station. He honks the horn. The
gas attendant runs out, he is rather effeminate
and is entranced by the little girl. |
|
The father goes inside to pay and
the strange man tries to kidnap the girl. The
father runs and gets the girl back. The attendant
threatens the man. The gas attendant lifts the
father in the air and tosses him down to the
ground. |
 |
|
 |
| He then becomes his Gorma monster
form, his name is General Catcus. He ejects
needles into the poor father. |
|
The five Dairanger are having a
merry time in their car nearby. The father stands
in the way and they stop the car abruptly. He
explains what had occurred the best he can and
faints. Ryou tells Daigo to go inside as the
others tend to the man. |
 |
|
 |
| Daigo runs into the gas station
to find the cashier lady paralyzed to death by
needles. He waves his hand in front of her face
but she doesn't react. |
|
The gas station service place is
full of dolls. Daigo finds a small cactus plant
and swears he saw it before. |
 |
|
 |
| He remembers one
night that was lightly snowing. He was walking
and saw a girl named Michiru and then she
disappeared. She was caring to a cactus plant. |
|
He grabbed the plant. He assumed
Michiru was a ghost. He told her would take care
of it for her. Daigo tended to the cactus in his
house. But one day, he never saw it again. |
 |
|
 |
| In present time, he looked out
the window and saw the same ghost girl in a white
dress and parasol. He ran after her. |
|
Meanwhile, Gara arrived to
General Cactus' winnebago in an isolated area. He
was tending to his dolls. |
 |
|
 |
| The dolls are actually paralyzed
little girls. Gara orders him around but he
doesn't pay her any mind. |
|
Daigo continues
running and ends up at the strange gorma's site
to find strange life-sizes dolls around dump
trucks. |
 |
|
 |
| He walks past one and it comes up
to him with a knife. |
|
Two others grab him, when he
tosses them, they explode and he rolls down a
hill. |
 |
|
 |
| He spots his cactus on a table,
suspecting it is the ghost girl. Then General
Cactus appears. |
|
He makes the cactus become the
Michiru. He tells Daigo that he created her.
Daigo is shocked by these turns of events. |
 |
|
 |
| General Cactus transforms and
shows off his Gorma medals. He throws needles at
Daigo's chest. Michiru tries to run away and the
General hits her too. |
|
Daigo takes out his needles and
runs to her. She is groaning and Daigo holds her.
Michiru closes her eyes. |
 |
|
 |
| They are attacked, Daigo tossed
aside and the girl is tossed unto a rock and
becomes the cactus and pot, broken. |
|
The attack was from Gara and
Daigo is furious. Gara tells him of a dead world
she dreams of. Photos flash of famine, war, and
suffering. |
 |
|
 |
| She wickedly smears the broken
pot and plant with her foot some more. Daigo
transforms, Gara defies his attack and
disappears. |
|
Then big red cactus appear and
blast Daigo. |
 |
|
 |
| General Catcus calls for
reinforcements. Red umbrellas appear, they are
lifted to reveal Cotpotros in fatigues. |
|
The Cotpotro shoot at Daigo with
their umbrellas. Daigo then fights them. |
 |
|
 |
| Then the other four Dairanger run
in as they transform. |
|
They fight the Cotpotro. |
 |
|
 |
| General Cactus pops up his top
and blows them with fire. Daigo tells them to
split up. |
|
The other four reach the
winnebago, Lin blows away the strange doll
warriors guarding the kidnapped girls. |
 |
|
 |
| Lin and Kazu tend to the
kidnapped girls outside. |
|
Shouji and Ryou rush out the
hostages from inside tthe winnebago. |
 |
|
 |
| Daigo takes on General Cactus by
himself. |
|
The monster fills Daigo with
needles but he gathers his strength and pops them
out. |
 |
|
 |
| Daigo uses an illusion of his
winnebago rushing past him. |
|
The Dairanger use their Super
Chi-Power Bazooka against the monster. |
 |
|
 |
| He grows huge out of the
explosion and Kibaranger comes in. They call
their Mythical Chi Beasts. |
|
General Catcus pops open his top
and shoots fire at them. They form Kibadaioh. |
 |
|
 |
| General Catcus throws cactus-like
gerenades at them and they are bounced off
through telekensis. He is then destroyed. |
|
Daigo runs down the hill to see
Michiru go away on a truck. She is free from the
Gorma's hold. She and the truck disappears. |
 |
|
 |
| He and his friends drive away
happily. Master Kaku watches over them. |
|
The cactus Daigo took care of
flourishes in the grass. |
Comment:
- The sequence where the monster's attack
bounces off Kibadaioh, was edited for
Power Rangers to show a red forcefield in
front of the robot.
- Kou does not appear out of his suit in
this episode.
