The year is 1985. When an ancient witch, Rita Repulsa is freed from her prison, Zordon (an interdimensional being caught in a time-warp) recruits a team of (at first) children (later, they grow up into teenagers) with attitude. Giving them powers drawn from dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals, the kids become the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. With the small bit of good left in her dark heart, Rita creates her own Ranger, Tommy the Green Ranger, but Tommy turns good and joins the Rangers. Later, they would be joined by Alpha 5, who would become the 7th member of the team (with their supervision and training), the Alpha Ranger. Their principal, Ted Swanson, becomes the 8th member a little bit before then.
The first five reworked episodes (Day of the Dumpster, High Five, Teamwork, A Pressing Engagement and A Different Drum) have the Rangers being elementary school students. From episode 6 onwards, which is seven years later, they are the teenagers we all know and love.

Story arcs[]
Dark Alpha[]
Alpha, feeling neglected by the Power Rangers when they are selected as teen foreign exchange speakers for a school-sponsored trip to Australia, is taken in by Lord Zedd and his new queen, Rita Repulsa, after being ambushed and captured by Finster. Searching through Alpha's memories (being supposedly neglected on his birthday and another time when Alpha and the Rangers were going to Angel Grove Park to play basketball, for example), the two discover that the young robot appears to have been emotionally and physically neglected, ignored and abused. Offering the little robot power in exchange for convincing the Rangers of their neglect towards him (even if it means destroying them to do so), Alpha finally gives in to the thought that the ones he loves don't love him in return. He is given an infusion of Dark Power, more powerful armor and the ability to manipulate dark energy and use it as a weapon.
However, the Rangers are able to reveal Alpha's true memories and, after a few moments, he is restored to normal, with the powers that Zedd and Rita gave to him completely gone.
Prince of Edenoi[]
A reworking of the three-part episode "A Friend in Need". Alpha monitors the galactic scanner when he picks up a distress signal from Edenoi, his home planet. The Rangers are called upon to check things out for Alpha, who is revealed to be the planet's crown prince, the first-built son of King Lexian and Queen Thalassia. It is revealed to us that the Rangers were trained since childhood to be the prince's guards. The Edenites also look remarkably different from the prime universe counterparts, and Dex doesn't exist.
Reveal the Zeo Crystal[]
As heir to the throne of planet Edenoi, Alpha is later revealed to be the keeper and wielder of the Zeo Crystal, a crystal that holds an ancient power over purification. When he is very upset, the crystal's power activates and he is enveloped in a beam of white light. This light also surrounds him when he is very angry or when he is in his morphed state. Using the crystal's power, Alpha gifts his friends with new Zeo powers, leading up to the next series, Power Rangers Zeo: Revisited.
Notes[]
- The episode The Shapeshifter is based off of an unproduced episode written by David Yost, the actor for Billy Cranston.
