Jen yelled "NOOOOOOO!" Ransik teleported away laughing. Jen rushes to see Alex dying and started crying. Alex told her to take his Morpher and said she must stop Ransik. Jen and the Rangers rushed to the Time Ship. Although she didn't want to do this she promised him. Sadly Alex dies in her arms.
After He was killed by Ransik and Jen promised she will capture him. She takes the red chrono morpher to the past and found Alex's ancestor Wesley Collins and he became the new Red Time Force Ranger.
Active Duty[]
He was considered dead in the year 3000 and when the timestream changed, Alex returned to life. Later in the series, due to a timeline shift Alex was found to be alive and sent a new Megazord the Time Shadow to help the Rangers.
When Jen remembered the mutant Fatcatfish tried to kill her and Alex and remembered his death at the hands of Ransik.
When Wes's father was injured by Ransik, Alex returns to the past and takes the morpher back from Wes. When the four of the Rangers showed Alex their base, he was very cross about the clothes they are wearing and yelled "NOW PUT ON YOU UNIFORMS NOW! You all look ridiculous."
After being told off by Jen and the other Rangers Alex changes his attitude and returned the chrono morpher back to Wes and the team battled Frax's robot Dragontron. As the battle continued, Alex visited Mr. Collins in the hospital who was dying because of his injuries. Alex used future technology to save his life and returned to the future.
In Undercover Rangers Alex contacts Wes and gives him the Strata Cycle after learning from Circuit that Jen was in trouble, entrusting her care to Wes since he could not be there himself.
End of Time[]
In The End of time part 1 the city comes under attack from Doomtron. Alex warned Jen, Lucas, Katie, and Trip to return to the Future right away and sent the Time Ship, but they refused. He contacted Jen, and tells her to do it, but Jen reluctantly and sadly hung up on him.
Wes later forced the Rangers back to the future. Jen tried to tell Wes that she loves him, but the Time Ship took off leaving Jen upset. When they returned, Alex welcomes them and takes them to have their memories wiped due to Time Force policy and reveals Wes died saving the city. Before Alex can begin the memory adaptation, Jen ultimately refuses to have her memories wiped and decides to return to the past and help Wes.
Alex refuses at first, but Jen tells him how can they live their lives knowing it cost Wes his. She returns his engagement ring which breaks his heart after realizing she loves Wes more than him, but sadly accepts her decision and tells them to use the Megazord in Jet Mode to reach the past instead of the Time Ship since the Megazord is the best chance of reaching the past which she thanks him.
