Zordon said that Defoliator's destruction of plants and trees was causing a greenhouse effect in Angel Grove. In reality, the greenhouse effect would never be so rapid and localized.
When the Rangers fired their Zeo Blaster the resulting footage showed Defoliater being downed by a sword-slash style attack, rather then a laser blast.
According to the show, CFCs cause the Greenhouse effect and Carbon Dioxide depletes the Ozone Layer, which we all know is not true.
Defoliator: (comes across Tanya and Kat in surprise) Wow! 2 little Ranger girls! Tanya: Defoliator, I thought we got rid of you for good! Defoliator: Thought I'd make like a tree and leave, did you? No such luck. (laughs) This is my opportunity to turn both of you into potting soil!
Defoliator: (after the Rangers have beaten him) I'm withering! (he shrinks back to his normal size)
Tommy: What would you say if I asked you to dance? Kat: I'd say "Promise not to step on my feet, and you've got a deal".
Lt. Stone: OK boys, here's your chance to score one for the home team. Bulk: Ready and willing, sir! Skull: Yeah, I'm ready, he's willing!
Kat: Well, Tommy and Heather should be enjoying their dinner. Tanya: You know, that was really nice of you, Kat. (smiles) Kat: (Somewhat deflated) I don't know if it was really nice or really stupid. Tanya: What do you mean? (Kat stops walking and turns to face Tanya, seemingly on the verge of elaborating; but then...) Kat: Oh, forget it.
This is the first, and last, time since "Target Rangers" that the Zeo 2 Battle Helmet has demonstrated its jet power capability. The Zeo 1 Battle Helmet also utilizes its whirlwind power for the first and only time.
This is the only episode in which a monster (Defoliator) survives the Zeo Megazord's finishing move (Zeo Megazord Saber). Similar surviving is previously seen in "Hogday Afternoon (2)".
This marks the final time the Zeo Blaster weapon combo is used.
