[NARRATOR] Last time on Dragon Ball Z...

Along with the discovery of one of the Dragon Balls

within a Namekian tomb,

Gohan successfully pulled another

from the depths of a flesh-eating swamp.

Gohan!

Are you okay?

Look what I got!

[NARRATOR] And although our friends have pulled themselves

out of plenty of dangerous situations before,

the worst may still lie ahead of them!

You're fully healed now. You may open your eyes.

Unfortunately, we weren't successful

in reconstructing your tail.

[VEGETA] No matter. I don't need it.

[NARRATOR] It seems the Prince is back and ready for battle.

But are Goku and the gang ready

for the rebirth of Vegeta?

Find out today on Dragon Ball Z!

Come on, guys! Just turn up the heat and let's go.

But we can't hurry. Sorry.

Yeah, if we used any more energy

we'd burn straight through the cavern floor

and then it'd collapse beneath us.

Okay, okay, just get on with it!

I don't know how much more of this I can take!

I mean seriously, this can't be good for my skin.

It's feeling all stiff and cold

and not at all like it's usual delicate self. Oh my gosh.

What does frost bite feel like anyway?

Can your whole face get frost bitten?

Do you know? Huh?

[BULMA] Hey, where'd Zaacro go?

Good, Gohan. We're almost finished.

[KRILLIN humming]

Ha-ha!

[KRILLIN laughing]

All right... The sixth one!

One more to go.

[ALL] Yay! Yay!

[ALL laughing]

[distant rumbling]

[BULMA] I thought you guys said you were extra careful

so this wouldn't happen!

We were, but you distracted us with skin care talk!

[ALL screaming]

[sinister laughing]

[screaming]

[ALL shouting]

[GOHAN whimpering]

[BULMA] This is not happening! This is not happening!

[GOHAN yells]

[shouting]

[BULMA squeals]

[BULMA] If you guys have anything planned to save us,

now might be a good time!

[GOHAN] I think we're in trouble!

[ALL screaming]

[BULMA] Go left, go left, go left!

Right.

[KRILLIN] Hyaah!

[GOHAN and KRILLIN shout]

Heh. This is great.

You ain't seen nothin' yet.

[ALL sigh]

That was fun. Let's do it again!

[BULMA] Huh?

[BULMA] Aah! I don't want to ride this anymore!

[GOHAN and KRILLIN screaming]

[DR. ROOSTER] Care to tell me what happened, Vegeta,

or is the wound to your ego still too raw to be examined?

Judging by these stress fractures

in your protective armor, you must have received

quite a beating, and that's putting it lightly.

I hope you're not entertaining ideas of revenge.

I might not be here to put you back together next time.

[VEGETA] Is Frieza here? I need to see him.

He left. I don't know where he is.

I hope you're not lying to me. I'm in no mood.

Perhaps Cui can help you find him.

I saw him on his way to the training center earlier.

You could catch him there before he leaves, if you hurry.

Ha, ha, ha. I have no use for that coward.

If you see Frieza, tell him I'm looking for him.

But, Vegeta... Wait!

[DR. ROOSTER] Vegeta... Vegeta!

Sir, you're leaving your scouter behind!

[VEGETA] Keep it. It's yours. I have no use for it.

[GOKU grunting]

[grunting continues]

Taah!

[GOKU yelling]

I guess I overdid it there a little.

I should learn to start out smaller.

[GOKU yells]

[GOKU grunting]

Huh?

[GOKU laughing]

At least my nose still works.

I've always heard you should stop

and take the time to smell the flowers.

[ALL yelling]

[whimpering]

C'mon, Krillin, stop this ride, I wanna get off!

Gohan... Look at the ceiling.

What? Huh?

I hope you're not thinking what I think you're thinking...

[BULMA screams]

[BOTH] Haah!

[ALL screaming]

Hey, you guys, does that look like an exit to you?

'Cause it sure does to me!

You're right!

[ALL laughing]

[squealing]

[BULMA screaming]

[crashing]

[KRILLIN] That was some exit.

[BULMA sighs]

It seems we're getting close.

[GOHAN] Awesome.

It's not that I doubt you,

but you sure we're going in the right direction, Bulma?

Yes!

All right, all right. I believe you.

[GOHAN laughing]

[VOICE] Yes.

[sinister laughing]

Is it time?

Yes.

[BULMA] Good news, guys.

Dragon Ball straight ahead!

[KRILLIN] Wait a minute... I've been here before.

[BULMA] Earth to Krillin!

You coming or what?

[GOHAN laughing]

[BULMA] According to the Radar,

the Dragon Ball should be somewhere near that lake.

[BULMA] It looks to be in that stone building over there.

[BULMA] Yep. I'm sure it's in there.

I don't doubt it, but my question is,

are you sure it's safe to go in there?

Don't worry, Krillin. If you don't want to go,

I can get the Dragon Ball for you.

So, Krillin, don't tell me

you're just gonna sit around scared

and let a little boy do your job for you.

I'm not sitting, I'm standing.

[BULMA] Well, whatever. Stand around scared for all I care,

but Gohan and I are going in there, right?

Right.

[KRILLIN] But, Bulma--

I don't want to hear it, Krillin!

We only need one more Dragon Ball

then we can wish all of our friends back.

I'm not gonna let you stand in the way

of us accomplishing that, understand?

Uh... Uh-huh.

Okay, then. Let's go get this thing over with.

I'm in desperate need of some beauty sleep.

Mm-hmm.

Understand?

[BOTH] Mm-hmm.

I just hope my frostbitten face

doesn't scare away Yamcha when I see him.

So, will it? And I want an honest answer,

no patronizing, please.

You look radiant, Bulma.

[GOHAN] Um...

[thinking] Only one more Dragon Ball,

and I'll finally be able to see Piccolo again!

[GOHAN grunting]

[GOHAN grunting]

Krillin!

[GOHAN] Bulma! Somebody help me!

[GOHAN grunting]

Eh? What's happening?

Would you quit clowning around?

We don't have time to play!

But I'm not...

Something's got a hold of me, and I can't get free!

[KRILLIN] Gohan!

[BULMA screaming]

[RAITI and ZAACRO laughing]

Ah! I've found him.

[CHICHI] Goodness, what is Goku doing out here

in the middle of nowhere?

[ROSHI] Hm? I'll tell you what he's doing.

[ROSHI] What he always does: taking on too much too soon.

[thinking] There's nothing I want more

than to return to Earth

and pay a little visit to Kakarot.

But first, to planet Namek. I need to pick something up.

[SOLDIER] Well, Vegeta,

I hear you took quite a beating recently.

[laughing]

You couldn't even take over one measly planet.

And if all the rumors are true,

which I'm sure they are,

you couldn't beat a third-class Saiyan.

Drop it, Cui.

I don't have time to waste gossiping

with half-wits like you.

Just a minute.

The word is that Frieza isn't too happy with you

and your attitude, Vegeta.

[VEGETA laughing]

[VEGETA] Just let Frieza try to do something about it.

[VEGETA] Now, get your hand off me.

[CUI] Your mouth is big,

but I think you're biting off more than you can chew.

You don't know what you're up against, Vegeta.

Nobody has survived a fight with Frieza.

You just don't seem to get it, do you?

Let me put it plainly:

Frieza is utterly indestructible.

Enough! Now tell me where Frieza has run off to hide!

The planet Namek.

[thinking] What?! But how could he know?

If I don't beat him to the Dragon Balls,

then I'll never be able to defeat him!

Why don't you do the smart thing and just give up?

Because you will never get those Dragon Balls.

Believe me, Vegeta.

Frieza will most certainly find them first,

and when he does, will destroy the planet Namek.

[VEGETA] I can't give up!

[CUI] Wait! Vegeta!

Vegeta?

[VEGETA] Wait...

On second thought, I think I'll be needing this, Doctor.

[CUI] Vegeta!

All right, Frieza! I'm coming for you!

You two better let me go this instant.

See my friend over there? He knows karate!

[RAITI and ZAACRO laughing]

[ZAACRO] It's unfortunate, but playtime is over.

Playtime?

[RAITI] Time to get down to business.

[BOTH growling]

[BULMA yelling]

Hey! I recognize you two guys!

It was you in the hieroglyphics I found in the cave.

Correct.

Give the boy a prize.

[rumbling]

Okay, according to the Radar...

Three left!

[thinking] This can't be real...

It's all an illusion!

[GOHAN screaming]

[MONSTERS growling]

[roaring]

[GOHAN yelling]

[RAITI] Go ahead, cueball.

Aren't you gonna save your little friend?

[ZAACRO] But be warned.

Those creatures are meat eaters.

Gohan! Bulma!

[GOHAN screaming]

[RAITI laughing]

[NARRATOR] Is this really planet Namek?

What could have changed this beautiful place

into such a nightmarish land?

Vegeta, speeding towards the planet searching for Frieza,

will find much more than he bargained for

when he reaches the surface.

And what about Goku?

Will he come to in time to help straighten out this mess?

For the answers to all of your questions,

tune in to the next exciting adventure

on Dragon Ball Z!
