As Antonio heads to the samurai mansion, the others listen to Jayden and Mentor talk of young Antonio-- How Jayden gave him the Octo-Zord, how Jayden threatened to quit his training if Ji tried to take back the Octozord, etc.-- Antonio makes an entrance, fancy then gets embarrasing when his fish hook rips his pants. Antonio explains that after moving away when he was a kid, he trained himself to be a samurai and built his Samurai-Morpher from a trashed cellphone to communicate with Octozord through text-- because the zords understand the rangers who were born into the Samurai heritage. Ji, feeling that Antonio lacks dicipline and true samurai training confiscates Antonio's morpher, which the latter doesn't react too well to. Jayden agrees with Mentor dispite Antonio begging Jayden with memories of childhood friendship. As the rangers fight a new nighlok, they're powerless to destroy it. The nighlok retreats when it starts to dry up, and the team start to consider bringing Antonio along. Antonio, down at the fishing pier, angrily talks with Octo about regreting meeting the Rangers. Mike and Emily go to ask him to join and go to the mansion. There, Jayden convinces Ji to give Antonio back his morpher just in time for the next Nighlok attack. When the Rangers arrive, Antonio struggling to get in to a heroic position, they begin fighting and the Nighlok is over powered when Jayden and Antonio tag-team it. Once the Nighlok mega-sizes, Antonio combines the Octozord to the Battlewing Megazord and defeat the Nighlok. To celebrate, Antonio cooks fish barbecue and everyone appreciates Antonio's membership.
