The Free Rangers start out in the [[Foyer]], being commanded to attack [[Chibi-Robo]] by their leader, Sarge. Once they realize he's a friend, they are found standing in front of the stairs, waiting for roll call. Chibi-Robo must stand in place of the missing Free Ranger so they can start their training.

After the training is completed, the Free Rangers are talking without Sarge in the Foyer. When talked to and shown Memphis's [[Dog Tags]] that Chibi-Robo retrieved from Tao's doghouse in the [[Kitchen (PIA)|Kitchen]], Sarge will show up and start Tao Training. Afterwards, if the four pirate eggs have been recruited, Chibi-Robo can participate in the mission to rescue Memphis from Tao. During the mission, the other Free Rangers come back to help. Once Memphis is rescued, they realize Tao isn't bad, teaching everyone a lesson about friendship and respect.
