The Power Rangers S.P.D. season 1 episode 11 entitled Shadow: Part 1 revolves around a disturbing discovery made by the Rangers. They are informed by Commander Cruger that a dangerous criminal named Mirloc has escaped from SPD custody. Meanwhile, on Earth, Jack Landors, the Red Ranger faces his own troubles. Jack has been experiencing strange visions that seem to be connected to Mirloc's escape.
As the Rangers continue their patrol of the city, they encounter a group of robots that appear to have been reprogrammed by Mirloc. The robots attack the Rangers, and during the battle, Jack is struck by a strange energy beam. The energy seems to be affecting him, and he begins to act erratically. Jack eventually falls unconscious, and the Rangers take him back to base for medical attention.
Commander Cruger informs the Rangers that Mirloc's power is to create shadow clones of himself that can move through solid objects. The clones are dangerous, and the Rangers are warned to be on high alert. Cruger also reveals that the energy beam that struck Jack is similar to Mirloc's power, and they fear that he may be under Mirloc's influence.
Meanwhile, Jack continues to experience disturbing visions. He sees himself as a child, abandoned by his parents and left to fend for himself on the streets. Jack's past has always been a sensitive topic, and he becomes increasingly agitated as he relives his memories.
The Rangers receive a distress call from a jewelry store, and they rush to the scene. They find that the store has been deserted, but they soon realize that it's a trap set by Mirloc. The shadow clones attack them, and the Rangers are forced to retreat. During the battle, Jack's erratic behavior becomes a liability, and he endangers the rest of the team.
The episode ends with the Rangers returning to base to regroup. They are concerned for Jack's well-being and realize that they need to find Mirloc quickly before he can do any more damage. The stage is set for an intense showdown in the next episode, as the Rangers face off against Mirloc and his shadow clones in a desperate bid to save their city from destruction.
