Power Rangers Lost Galaxy: Dream Battle, a Lynchian Turbo episode?

A lot of it does not make sense.
There is a scene where Damon fixes a battery of some sort for a scooter without actually seeing Damon fix it.

After seeing Damon sleepy and worried after a nightmare, the next direct conclusion he has is that Damon's nightmare is trying to kill him.
Yes. Really. That was his FIRST CONCLUSION with NO EVIDENCE.
Did you read the script, Leo? Did you read the script?
How did the guy get the flowers if nobody lived there? Was he a swabbie, Deviot, Hexuba or Mutiny in disguise?
Why introduce the girl with the broken down car at the beginning of the episode if Damon did not think that she was the one who sent the flowers?
Where are they when they are dreaming? Are they in the Astral Plane? Do they project real versions of themselves onto a planet or some place onto Terra Venture?

However, it is also (a failed) but honest attempt at Lynchian cinema.
After all, how does cinema work?
How do dreams work?

Side note: based on the Damon/Hayate footage, it seems obvious to me that it was supposed to be a Ginga Green episode. There was probably a scene where Hayate figured out the monster's weak spot.
Also, Kai sleep instead of work? LIES!
Also it's pretty cool that Rajia Baroudi, Delphine had a job after the lack of success of Alien Rangers.
