It's Parent's Day at the Youth Center, and all of the Ranger Teens' fathers & mothers are there.  Rita decides to trap the parents in another dimension, and use them as ransom for attaining the  Power Coins! To make things worse, Billy is placed under a spell, and steals the Dragon Dagger  from the Command Center. With it, Goldar takes control of the Dragonzord, and sends it on a  rampage. Helpless to help their parents, the five Power Rangers give up their Dino Coins. Goldar  lies, takes the coins and refuses to release the parents. All seems lost, until our heroes realize  one Power Coin remains, the nearly-depleated Green Ranger Coin.
