Synopsis[]
When a pitching Gorotsuki is sent after the still-vacationing Carranger, Zonnette intervenes in the proceedings with her confused heart for Red Racer while Kyosuke tries to prove his love for her.
Plot[]
In a strange dream, Zonnette is dressed as a Japanese schoolgirl with a letter she's holding standing under a tree. Without warning, a male approaches her as she gives the letter to him only for it to be Red Racer telling her "I don't like you" mockingly, shocking her as she faints back into reality in the BB Saloon. She yells at "Red Racer" to stay out of her dreams and she hates him and she'll grease him up like the slime ball he is.
At the Hotel Epinaru Nasu, Kyosuke is dreaming about Zonnette while sleeping with the other Carranger. Back on the Baribarian, Ritchihiker states they need to blow "Earsh" up, but Gynamo states Zonnette has been in a bad mood lately as she barges in stating she is and she demands whether they have a new idea like torturing or crushing or totaling Red Racer; Zelmoda states all she cares about is Red Racer but she punches him down and punches Grotch for good measure. Ritchihiker tells Zonnette to calm since they've sent their latest to "Earsh" which excites her as he states he's special training and she can visit him as an excuse to get some fresh air. Zonnette wonders what he's like if he needs the outdoors.
Back at the Rindo Family Farm, Kyosuke is drinking coffee as Natsumi worries if he's posing to look cool.The male states he was thinking about Zonnette, remembering her tears from their last encounter and wondering how she is, but states he is kidding. Natsumi state she had no idea he was so sensitive which he takes offense with as the others show up; Kyosuke wonders what they're here for as Natsumi tells them what they mentioned, but Minoru states this is a company vacation so they should be enjoying themselves, offering to go go-kart racing.
However without warning, a baseball suddenly flies towards them, the team ducks as it hits a target hitting a bullseye with Red Racer on it before bouncing back towards them again. Everyone wonders what it was and that no one can throw a ball like that. The baseball returns to the glove of the Gorotsuki HH Deo, which Zonnette compliments as he states he fired up as Bowzock's best pitcher. On the Baribarian, Gynamo compliments Ritchihiker for this idea as the instructor states he is. When Zelmoda asks what the plan is, Ritchihiker reveals "The Explosive Ball", a ball HH Deo can throw at a city that will make the entire city explode! Gynamo wonders if that really is all as the instructor states it is; while on Earth, Zonnette believes that HH Deo can instead use his skills to put Red Racer out of commission!
However without warning, the Carranger arrive as Zonnette notices Red Racer again, the two staring at each other intently as she steps on a dandelion, telling HH Deo to not hold back and crush him. Minoru tells the Gorotsuki to go away and not keep showing up at the Rindo Lake Farm, which HH Deo says the same to them as he decides to unleash the Explosive Ball, which Naoki decides to hit back with his ViBlade, the Gorotsuki stating he'd be a fool to do. Pitching the ball towards Blue Racer, Naoki tries only to be hit by a forkball falling down and exploding! The team is shocked as Kyosuke states even Shigeru Sugishita, the god of forkballs, would be impressed. HH Deo is fired up by the praise as he keeps throwing balls hitting the Carranger down as Kyosuke tells them to not take their eyes off the balls as they get back up again to see the trajectory. HH Deo throws more forkballs at them which Red Racer is able to see and hit back to the Gorotsuki throwing him down! Kyosuke states they can finish him off, but Zonnette states she won't as she flies by with her car and reveals the Zonnette Knock-Out Metal Bucket Attack, throwing several buckets down at Red Racer as she leaves the car stating this is what he gets for dumping her, shocking Kyosuke! He states that he wanted them to be friends first, but she states it's a lie and HH Deo will defeat them, which Red Racer states it won't be easy. Zonnette states that if Red Racer can defeat him, she'll consider being his "friend" which he accepts but he states he doesn't want it to be a consideration as the two stare at each other before Zonnette leaves and kisses HH Deo to give him support, firing him up to the point of steaming! Summoning his "Furious Fireball", he pitches it throwing down the Carranger as Zonnette compliments as he throws the Carranger one by one! Zonnette shows worry as Red Racer keeps getting hit over and over until she stops the Gorotsuki stating if he pitches too much, he'll hurt his shoulder which the Gorotsuki realizes it he truth but not realized due to how intent he was with this forcing them to retreat.
Later in the park, HH Deo relaxes giving his shoulder a break; while Zonnette is plucking flower petals wondering if Red Racer should win or lose against him. She keeps plucking petal after petal until reaching the last, deciding to throw the flower away instead of pulling it stating she doesn't care if he loses since she doesn't want him. Back with the Carranger, Dappu advises the team that if they hit the Explosive Balls of HH Deo, they explode 0.001 seconds later meaning they need to hit it back faster than that which Youko claims is impossible. Naoki states they're trying to obtain an "Invisible Swing" making their arms tire but forcing to keep going for the sake of the plan.
Without warning, an explosion occurs within the Nasu Kougen park, destroying a nearby mountain! HH Deo states his shoulder is well rested now, but his pitch is furiously out of control, but it's OK since he's about to begin a furious, all out attack! Dappu worries about the Bowzock attack as the Carranger wonder what to do; Kyosuke states he will master the Invisible Swing and wants the other Carranger to distract HH Deo until he's ready and they need to believe in him, which the team is forced to believe in. Transforming, the other Carranger head off as Dappu stays with Kyosuke to learn the swing as he states he will win and prove himself to Zonnette. HH Deo states he'll start his all-out attack with a furious pitch, but is stopped as the Carranger states that he won't be able to, which makes him state he will send them to hell. With a flaming ball, HH Deo pitches towards the Carranger as it explodes, while Kyosuke continues his training and Dappu tells him to believe in Carmagic Power, which he states he believe in as well as in Zonnette's tears. Without warning, Kyosuke screams as he creates a swing that instantly turns him into Red Racer, Dappu proclaiming he has it!
Back with the other Carranger, they're being attacked by HH Deo thrown down by his balls as he states the inning is at an end. But he's stopped by Red Racer, the other Carranger realizing he's mastered the Invisible Swing! Kyosuke proclaims kids all over the world love baseball and he shouldn't be forgiven for using it for destruction challenging the pitcher. HH Deo states that if a batter challenges him, he has to accept it. As the Carranger and Zonnette watch, HH Deo worries about Red Racer's confidence as the two stare off and Kyosuke asks him for the Furious Fireball, the team realizing he's pointing he's going for a fireball. Preparing an Explosive Ball stating he won't let him, Kyosuke further challenges him as the Gorotsuki throws out the pitch; Kyosuke states that he will show victory to Zonnette as he uses the Invisible Swing to launch the ball into space where it explodes, shocking Zonnette and exciting the team while bringing HH Deo to tears that it was hit, forcing him to use Imocho imo youkan as his last resort! The Ranger Vehicles are summoned forming RV Robo as HH Deo states he will pitch so many furious balls that the team won't be able to hit them; the team summons RV Sword and charge forth as HH Deo pitches the Cloning Voodoo Sliders, throwing out a ton of balls forcing them to use "Gekisou Hits" to hit them all back before finishing it with the Gekisou Cut, HH Deo stating the team is merciless with his dying words. As Kyosuke wonders how Zonnette feels, the female Bowzock states it's no big deal that they won.
Later, the Carranger pack up their van with Dappu as they leave Nasu Kougen; the company president wonders how they're feeling as he states they had a good time and partake in final souvenirs. As they leave, Kyosuke wonders about Zonnette as the female Bowzock states she hates how red the sunset is.
