Billy and Rocky are sitting at a table in the Youth Center, studying for an upcoming test. Billy: So its the expediential difference between this number and that number. Rocky: That would be 10 to the 26th power times x square. Billy: Exactly. You know, this study session has been extremely productive. We should have no problems acing the advance math test. Rocky: And I've got plenty of time before my karate student shows up. Ernie: Hey guys, check out my new pachinko machine. Rocky and Billy walk over to Ernie's pachinko machine - a popular game in Asia. Rocky tries out the game and thinks it just too much fun.
Lord Zedd had been watching the Youth Center. Goldar is with him. Lord Zedd: So, Rocky likes to have fun. I'll fix it so that's all he wants to have. Goldar: But why? Lord Zedd: Why?! Fool! Because while that pachinko playing Power Pest is having fun, the Rangers will be at less than full strength, allowing me to destroy them.
Lord Zedd waits until the time is right and then he uses his staff to create the spell.
Rocky is playing the pachinko machine. Billy, who has gone back to studying, tells Rocky they need to hit the books again. Rocky tells him okay, but he just wants to finish up his game. After awhile, Billy becomes impatient and tells Rocky they really need to study. At this point, the spell has taken affect and Rocky blows Billy off, he would much rather continue playing the pachinko machine.
Lord Zedd and Goldar head for Earth in Serpentera. At the Youth Center, Rocky continues to play on the pachinko machine. Even Ernie is concern as he stops by Billy's table. Skull comes running in and heads over to Bulk, who is playing on a pinball machine. Skull's arms are full of papers. Skull drags Bulk over to a table and puts down all his stuff. Skull goes on about how he's been tracking the attacks on Angel Grove. The one thing that came up was every time there was a monster attack, Ernie had the day off. Bulk & Skull quickly come to the conclusion that Ernie is a Power Ranger. Rocky's student, Kayla, comes in and walks up to Rocky. Kayla is ready to practice to get her green belt. Rocky tells her that is no fun and tells Kayla to stop bothering him. Kayla stops by Billy's table and asks Billy what is wrong with Rocky. Billy doesn't have an answer for her. Aisha, Kimberly, Adam, and Tommy are playing frisbee in the park when Billy comes running up to them. Billy tells them there is a problem. Kimberly thinks Lord Zedd is up to something, but Billy tells them the problem is Rocky. Inside Serpentera, Lord Zedd is furious that the teens are trying to wreck his plans. Lord Zedd sends down his putties to take care of them. Down in the park, Kimberly, Adam, Billy, Tommy, and Aisha decided to have a talk with Rocky back at the Youth Center. Suddenly several putties appear on the playground equipment. Adam, Billy, Tommy, Aisha, and Kimberly battle the putties. In the midst of the battle, Aisha contacts Zordon and lets him know they need Rocky's help. Zordon has Alpha 5 contact Rocky. Alpha 5 tells Rocky he needs to go to the park, to help his friends. But that doesn't appeal to Rocky at all and he tells Alpha 5 to buzz off. Rocky is about to go back to playing on the pinball machines, when he realizes playing in the park sounds good. Rocky arrives at the park and starts playing on the playground equipment as his friends battle the putties. Eventually Billy, Tommy, Aisha, Kimberly, and Adam defeat the putties. Lord Zedd is furious and decides to have the teens try to defeat his monster. Lord Zedd uses Ernie's pachinko machine to create the monster Pachinko Head. At the Youth Center, Ernie is working as Bulk & Skull sneak in. Ernie accidentally knocks over a bowl of popcorn. Ernie goes around to clean it up, and Bulk & Skull hurry out of sight. When Ernie turns around his pachinko machine is gone. Ernie is bewildered as he looks for it behind the counter. Bulk & Skull go back to their original hiding place. Ernie leans over, aware that Bulk & Skull were inside the whole time, and asks them if they had seen his pachinko machine. Bulk & Skull tell him no, they have been busy looking for a contact lens. Skull pops a lens out and then they leave the same way they came in. Pachinko Head appears at the park. Tommy, Aisha, Kimberly, Adam, and Billy are stunned, but Rocky thinks he looks like a fun guy. The teens morph, including Rocky. The Rangers run towards Pachinko Head. Red Ranger cheers Pachinko Head on as he fires at the rest of the Rangers. Black Ranger and White Ranger manage to leap out of the way. But Blue Ranger, Pink Ranger, and Yellow Ranger have been turned into pachinko balls.
Lord Zedd becomes angry with Pachinko Head, when he starts playing around, instead of just getting rid of the last two Rangers. White Ranger and Black Ranger know they need to act quickly. Black Ranger takes a flying leap towards Pachinko Head and gets turned into a pachinko ball. White Ranger spots the frisbee and uses it to distract Pachinko Head. As Pachinko Head chases after the frisbee, White Ranger gathers up the pachinko balls and teleports to the Command Center. When he arrives, he tells Zordon how Rocky wasn't any help at all and only goof around. Alpha 5 does a scan on the red pachinko ball and Zordon determines that Lord Zedd had placed a spell on Rocky, that cause him to only want to have fun. Zordon informs them that Pachinko Head has now entered the amusement park and causing terror there. Tommy has to leave, and Zordon warns him to be careful. Alpha 5 and Zordon work on getting the rest of the Rangers restore to their normal selves. White Ranger arrives in the amusement park and with Saba's help, battles Pachinko Head. Pachinko Head thinks its another game and goes off to play hide and seek. Lord Zedd is really frustrated with Pachinko Head now and throws down his grow bomb. Pachinko Head grows to giant size. White Ranger calls for his tiger zord and the Megazord is formed. The battle continues. Eventually White Ranger gets knock out of his Megazord. Back at the Command Center, Alpha 5 has managed to restore Rocky. Zordon fills in Rocky on what has been going on. Rocky morphs and heads into battle. Red Ranger battles Pachinko Head with his zord. Back at the Command Center, Alpha 5 works hard on restoring the rest of the Rangers. Soon Billy, Kimberly, Adam, and Aisha are back to normal. The four teens are happy to be back, but Red Ranger needs their help. The four teens morph and summon their zords. The Megazord is formed and the battle continues. The Rangers destroy Pachinko Head. Serpentera lands in Angel Grove and battles the Megazord. Serpentera knocks the Megazord to the ground. Tor arrives to help. Serpentera begins to crush Tor. Tor is almost destroyed when Serpentera runs almost out of energy. Lord Zedd and Goldar only have enough energy to get them back to the moon. They retreat to the moon.
Inside the Youth Center, the TV is playing the news. Bulk & Skull are sitting at the counter as the TV reporter thanks the Power Rangers for saving the city. Bulk tells Ernie that he was here. Ernie remarks what else is new I work here. Bulk looks Skull and Skull knows he is in trouble. Skull reminds Bulk that it was only a theory, but Bulk is still angry. Aisha and Billy are doing homework at a table, when Rocky walks in and walks up to their table. They invite him to join them, but Rocky tells them he has to practice with Kayla first. Billy and Aisha tease Rocky a bit, asking him if he just doesn't want to have fun. Rocky tells them he has learned his lesson. Kayla comes running in straight for Rocky. Rocky and Kayla head for the mats for practice. Suddenly the pachinko machine has returned. Ernie is surprised and then asks Rocky if he wants to play. Aisha and Billy are a bit concern until Rocky tells Ernie he has better things to do.
