The Singing Squash

The singing squash was a rare root found in certain dimensional gaps. Eons ago, Zordon discovered the root in one such gap on Dramak 5. Located in a dark forest with giant mushrooms and billowing fog, the pink and red flowers of the squash indicated where the root was growing.

Upon returning to the Command Center, Alpha was able to extract the dark green sap from the singing squash, and mixed it with a clear liquid for Billy and Kimberly to drink. Upon consuming the sap, the spell was broken and their personalities returned to normal. [MMPR1: “Power Ranger Punks“]
