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

[FRIEZA] I hate to interrupt a spirited conversation

such as yours,

but I'm running on a bit of a tight schedule.

Now prepare yourself for my final transformation!

[NARRATOR] The hideous Frieza took everything

our heroes could dish out.

And retaliated by transforming once more

into an even stronger form.

[FRIEZA yelling]

[yelling continues]

[yelling continues]

Well... now that I've bercome a Super Saiyan.

It's time to let my fists do the talking!

[NARRATOR] Vegeta and Piccolo were restored to full strength,

thanks to Dende's healing abilities.

But will their collective powers be enough to stop this

ultimate transformation of Frieza?

Find out... today!

What the...?

[DENDE whimpers]

Now wait just a second. That's the new Frieza!?

Gotta tell ya, he doesn't look so tough to me.

--I mean, he's so puny-- --[PICCOLO] Shut up!

Let me give you a piece of advice kid:

Don't let that creature fool you!

'Cause you know, looks aren't everything.

What?

He's just too strong!

And even with our combined strength,

there's no way we could start to put a dent

in his shiny new armor...

[GOHAN whimpers]

[PICCOLO] I say we get out.

And then maybe one day we'll return... and kick--

What are you saying?!

[KING KAI] Nooo!

[BOTH] Huh?

[KING KAI] Oh no!

Oh my, I sense Frieza has manifested into his final form.

Drat!

This could mean all our hope in Piccolo restoring your lives

may be for naught,

and the universe could fall under Frieza's evil rule!

Huh?!

No. This just can't happen! Piccolo, you must...

...stop Friezaaa!

[thinking] Frieza's power is stronger than ever!

Ah man, I've gotta get out of here!

Hm?!

Bang.

Noooo--!

[gasping]

What... happened?!

No... No!

[NAIL thinking] Dende?! No! It can't be! It just can't be!

[PICCOLO thinking] Frieza, you monster!

That's one down...

and I didn't even break a sweat.

[FRIEZA giggles softly]

No... Dende...

[GOHAN growls]

[giggling continues]

[growling]

[thinking] Oh no! This stinks!

But until I get my strength back to 100%, I'm totally useless...

Dende? Dende! Say something, Dende!

He... He saw Dende's power to heal us and that's the reason

he decided to take him out first.

[GOHAN growls]

Hey! He disappeared!

[thinking] Come back and fight like a man.

Wait. What's that?

[FRIEZA] Hello, boys.

How dare you!

[FRIEZA] Now...

...it's time to pull back the curtain

and let the third and final act begin.

[GOHAN growls]

My, my, you're quite upset about what I did

to your little friend over there.

How touching...

Oh well, what's done is done.

[GOHAN growls]

You seem especially anxious to get things started.

Shall we begin?

[GOHAN yells]

[GOHAN shouts]

I've had all I can take from you!

Hmph.

[growling]

[ALL yell]

[grunting]

[grunting continues]

[grunting continues]

[PICCOLO] Masenko-Haaaa!

Right! That does it!

Kamehame-Haaaa!

Hyaaaa!

Did you get him?!

[KRILLIN] I-I'm not sure...

Yeah. I don't see him anywhere.

[VEGETA] You idiots! Behind you!

What!?

Here I am.

[VEGETA] Look out!

[GOHAN grunts]

[KRILLIN screams]

[PICCOLO growls]

[GOHAN screams]

But I-I didn't see him move a muscle.

How does he move so fast? It's like his moves are invisible...

[PICCOLO growls

[thinking] But somehow Vegeta could see them! I wonder how?

Did Dende give him some sort of special power?

[GOHAN] Thanks, Vegeta!

You saved us!

[GOHAN laughs]

I didn't save you. You're not even worth it.

Huh?

[VEGETA chuckles]

I suppose you guys weren't quite aware of my new powers!

What? New powers?

Huh?

So, what are you saying?

You think you can take him on yourself?

Oh yes.

He-He's crazy!

[VEGETA] Why don't you run back to your mommies,

I've got a little business to take care of.

Your words may be tough, Vegeta,

but I wonder if you can truly back them up?

I don't think you realize just who you're dealing with.

So let me show you!

Introducing...

...for the very first time...

Super Saiyan Vegeta!

S-Super...

...S-Sai... Him...?

[thinking] Vegeta? A Super Saiyan?

What's he talking about?

At last the power is all mine, Frieza!

[VEGETA laughs]

[FRIEZA giggles]

Forgive me if I don't tremble in fear, "Super Saiyan".

[FRIEZA giggles]

You don't believe me, do you?

Then I'll just wipe that grin off your face, Frieza.

Are you ready to fight?

[FRIEZA growls]

[growling continues]

[thinking] What's going on out there?

Now I sense Vegeta's power building!

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA yells]

Wh-What's happening?!

[thinking] B-But where did Vegeta get all this power from?!

[PICCOLO thinking] He just stood by and watched

as I was fighting Frieza...

Did he have that type of strength then?

[VEGETA growls]

[PICCOLO thinking] How did this happen? How?!

[KRILLIN] Don't you get it?!

Vegeta told me that a Saiyan's strength is at its peak

right after he recovers from a mortal wound!

What?!

[VEGETA roars]

[GOHAN whimpers]

Gohan! I think we better get outta here while we still can!

So you're saying it's possible for Vegeta

to go from all-talk to super-tough

in the wink of an eye?

Do you remember when Vegeta asked me to beat him up?!

Well that allowed Dende to heal him and give him his new powers!

Ah... Now I think I understand.

[VEGETA growls]

Look at Vegeta! Man, he's really turning it on!

I've got a feeling Frieza's going down this time!

What do you think, Gohan?! Oh yeah!

[KRILLIN laughs]

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA roars]

[grunting]

[VEGETA roaring]

[GOHAN] Wha-What happened, Krillin?

Oh no! That's not good! Frieza's still standing!

Hold on, Gohan, there's more fireworks to come.

I've got a feeling we haven't seen

the full extent of Vegeta's powers yet!

[GOHAN] You think so?

Yeah! I think you got that right! I mean, just look at him!

Yep. It's like I said before, Vegeta just might win

this battle for us after all!

Well, well, you certainly surprise me

with your new found force.

And I'm just warming up, you clown!

What you just witnessed was only the beginning of my power!

If you had one of your stupid scouters here

you'd realize my true potential

and you'd run like the coward you really are!

No matter. A Saiyan loves a good fight,

and you'll discover my powers soon enough.

So, let's stop talking and cut to the chase!

This time you're going down!

Wha'sa matter? Is your brain another one of your weak

and underused muscles?

Very well. You've had your fun.

But I really do feel sorry for you now.

Because now you have to back up your delusional,

pathetic taunts, Super Saiyan.

[VEGETA growls]

Shut up!

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA grunts]

[VEGETA yells]

You're making me mad!

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA grunting]

[KRILLIN gasps]

[KRILLIN] He's winning!

Look, Vegeta's got him on the ropes now, Gohan!

Hmm!

[PICCOLO] No!

Huh?

He... He won't win! He... He can't!

Wh-What are you saying?

[VEGETA grunting]

[VEGETA chuckles]

[FRIEZA] Quit fooling yourself. You're no match for my speed.

[VEGETA yells]

This is impossible! There's no-- There's no sign of him anywhere!

[FRIEZA giggles softly]

No! No! NO!

[giggling continues]

Well, it looks like you're not that "Super" of a Saiyan

after all, huh?

[FRIEZA giggles]

In fact, I guess this makes you the loser.

What does this mean?

It-It means Piccolo was right

and V-Vegeta doesn't stand a chance against Frieza!

No one stands a chance against Frieza...

Ah... Da-Daddy...

[thinking] I have to get out of here! Must help... Gohan!

[NARRATOR] Is Vegeta truly a "Super Saiyan"

or will this be his "Sayonara Battle"

against the superior speed and strength of Frieza?
