Zoom in on the cockpit as Red talks, then pulls back on the right control stick, causing Astro Megazord to use its right arm to pull on the tentacle, yanking Voltage Hog across the city roughly smashing to the ground. It likes this move so much, it does it a second time, causing the tentacle to release its hold.
