If Dillon’s sister had escaped Venjix along with him, the RPM team would have had two “cyborg” Rangers from the start. Tenaya’s “hand-camera” and infiltration skills would have given the Rangers a massive intelligence advantage inside the wasteland. They could have predicted Venjix’s moves before he made them, turning the season into a series of surgical strikes against the virus’s mainframes.

However, Venjix would have viewed this as a personal betrayal and likely would have accelerated his “final solution” much sooner. The “Corinth” dome would have been under constant, 24/7 siege. The tension would come from whether Tenaya’s internal programming could be “hacked” by Venjix remotely, making her a ticking time bomb in the middle of the Rangers’ headquarters.
