There's not a lot of depth to the fact that Steelix cutting a deal with Ransik but it works. We can assume that money is a dangerous power, and that's been reinforced through the show as with Nadira's affinity for it, and Collins Sr's deals with weapons, security paramilitaries and bio weapons research.
The use of a toy box for Steelix to show his hologram was interesting. It's toy-like but has an adult detailed dark Hellraiser-ish design.
The use of the term mutants was sorta racist by Jen, especially after Trip already saved one, but was probably due to Screen Actor's Guild/lack of ability to retake the scene.
There's also a lot of Jen somewhat nudity, with her placing her Power Ranger toy gun on her skirt as if that would hold in in addition to showing her boxers a lot.
Side note, since Pokemon Sun and Moon was big, her partner's name was Steelix oddly enough 15 years later.
I sorta think it'd be impossible in 2001, but I think it would've been interesting if Jen's former cop partner was Time Force Pink Fire in the "Time Force Traitor" episode.
Also, as much as people complain about US suits' Steelix was just sorta awful all around. Even Sledge worthy. I actually have complaints about a lot of the Japanese suits post Gaoranger actually.
