The episode begins with the rangers preparing for a new mission to stop Astronema, the evil queen of darkness, from obtaining a powerful new weapon called the Degalor. The Degalor is said to be the most destructive weapon in the universe, and should it fall into Astronema's hands, it could spell doom for all of humanity.
As the rangers prepare to take on this dangerous mission, tensions begin to rise within the team. The newest member of the team, Justin, is still struggling to find his place among his fellow rangers. He feels unsure of himself and his abilities as a ranger, and worries that he is not strong enough to fulfill his duties.
Meanwhile, one of the other rangers, Ashley, is dealing with her own struggles. She is still feeling guilty for an earlier mission in which she accidentally endangered the team, and is struggling to regain their trust.
These tensions come to a head as the rangers embark on their mission to stop Astronema. They encounter numerous obstacles along the way, including a group of powerful monsters sent to stop them.

As the battle rages on, Justin and Ashley find themselves facing their fears head-on. Justin realizes that he has what it takes to be a true ranger, and finds the inner strength he needs to fight on. Ashley, for her part, makes amends with her fellow rangers and regains their trust.
In the end, the rangers emerge victorious, having stopped Astronema from obtaining the Degalor. But the real victory is the strength they gained by facing their own fears and doubts. As the episode draws to a close, the rangers stand united as a team, ready to face whatever challenges come their way.
Overall, When Push Comes to Shove is an action-packed episode of Power Rangers that also delves deeply into the emotional struggles of the characters. It's a reminder that even superheroes have their doubts and fears, and that it takes bravery and perseverance to overcome them.
