"Incident on Ranger 7" is the 42nd episode of Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!.
Plot[]
The Monkey Team runs into an old enemy, Gyrus Krinkle, at the prison on Ranger 7 when Chiro is mysteriously kidnapped and the monkeys must find him.
Synopsis[]
As the Hyperforce get excited on approaching Shuggazoom, they are unable to get a response from Jinmay due to static interference. As the Super Robot passes Shuggazoom's moon Ranger 7, Sparx finds out that the Super Robot is being targeted by an unknown weapons system. A beam is shot into the Super Robot and hits Chiro, causing him to disappear.
As the monkey team are shocked on what happened, Antauri senses that Chiro is still alive but unable to pinpoint his whereabouts. Otto confirms that the beam came from the Moon Base Beta Prison Complex in Ranger 7. The monkey team then realise that Gyrus Krinkle, who had tried taking over the team by hypnotizing the monkeys to destroy Chiro and is imprisoned at the prison complex, is the main culprit responsible for Chiro's abduction. The monkey team arrive at Moon Base Beta Prison Complex. The head of the place tells them that Krinkle has virtually been rehabilitated and the team meets him in his prison room, where he has covered his walls with various paintings, one of which he is working on. As the monkey team accuses him of kidnapping Chiro, he refuses to accept their accusation. The team decide to investigate the premises to find any clues to Chiro's whereabouts.
After being zapped by the beam, Chiro appears on Shuggazoom, but quickly learns that most of its inhabitants look like Gyrus Krinkle and his face is plastered everywhere. As he freaks out and runs, he is stopped by Krinkle himself, who is a superhero of the city. He welcomes Chiro to his world called 'Krinklezoom', and asks him to team up with him and protect the city. Chiro declines Krinkle's request and battles against him. Krinkle was easily able to defeat Chiro, and he then flies high above the city with Chiro and offers him one more chance. Chiro rejects and Krinkle reveals that he plans to bring the monkey team into his world. Just before he could comprehend what Krinkle said, he drops Chiro towards the pavement. Chiro submits and agrees to team up with Krinkle until the monkey team arrives.
Back at Moon Base Beta Prison Complex, Nova, Gibson and Antauri discover a machine hidden in one of the rooms at the complex. They summon Otto and Sparx, who are making arts and crafts with the other inmates of the complex.
At Krinklezoom, Krinkle explains Chiro his backstory about being raised by a robotic mother, which gave him a sense of loneliness and helplessness, and increased his desire to be part of the Hyperforce. After Chiro asks Krinkle if capturing him 'was gonna change anything?', Krinkle angrily rejects the accusation that Chiro was kidnapped and his anger triggers an earthquake in their place. An alarm goes off before and the two of them race off to fight the Formless, which confuses Chiro as the Skeleton King was defeated. Krinkle uses Chiro’s moveset and some of his own to fight. He defeats much of the Formless, but Chiro points out the last half dozen Formless left. With a wave of his hand, Krinkle makes them disappear, revealing to Chiro that he controls all the aspects of his world.
As the monkey team wonder what is the machine, Otto deduces that it is a neuro-matter reconfiguration machine, which turns matter into thought waves. Suddenly, Krinkle arrives with an army of prison robots to reveal that that he’s taken over the prison and reprogrammed the entire prison staff, and that he was stalling them to let his brain recharge. He pulls a cable out of his head and connects it to machine, which results in the machine zapping the monkeys into his mind. The monkey team is reunited with Chiro. Sparx insults Krinkle who angrily attacks him, resulting in Nova to attack Krinkle in response, but was quickly beaten back by Krinkle. Chiro was able to calm him down and Krinkle apologises to them. They then team up with him to fight Cheesebot. As the monkey team and Krinkle fight the Cheesebot, Antauri and Chiro come up with a plan to get out of Krinkle's mind.
Krinkle defeats the Cheesbot using a copied version of Chiro's Inner Primate and as he is applauded by the citizens of his world, Antauri uses his mind-melding ability on Krinkle in order to find a way out Krinkle's mind. This results in Krinkle’s memories being exposed to the Hyperforce and in the creation of fissures in Krinkle's world. Krinkle breaks out of Antauri's mind melding and attacks the Hyperforce after he realises that he was cheated by them.
Chiro dives and attacks the fissures generated in Krinkle's world, with rest of the monkey team following suit. This results in the destruction of Krinkle and his world. Back in the real world, Krinkle gets sucked into the machine after it started malfunctioning from the destruction of the world in mind, while the Hyperforce managed to exit the machine, just before it exploded. The Hyperforce wonder what happened to Krinkle after the machine exploded.
The episode ends with a look around the paintings in Krinkle’s prison room walls, landing on a portrait of him being the leader of the monkey team, before the room's lights go off.
