[NARRATOR] Last time on Dragon Ball Z,

Supremely confident in his power,

Frieza vowed to defeat Goku without using his hands!

But, in issuing himself this challenge,

it soon became clear that Frieza had bitten off more

than he could chew!

[NARRATOR] Goku continued to surprise the evil tyrant

with his incredible strength and blinding speed...

until finally, hard-pressed by the Saiyan's flurry of attacks,

Frieza was left with one recourse...

So, I guess you had to use your hands after all.

[FRIEZA growls]

[GOKU chuckles]

[FRIEZA giggles]

Okay, from now on, the deal's off.

[GOKU] Yeah, well, I sort of gathered that much already!

[FRIEZA] Oh, my! I'm so sorry.

Yeah, I'll bet! Well, don't go losing any sleep over it.

Shoot! I'm sure that it was an honest mistake!

Thanks, but no thanks.

[NARRATOR] Now, the time for games at an end,

the two mighty warriors square off,

ready to begin the battle anew!

The epic struggle for the fate of the universe continues today,

on Dragon Ball Z!

[FRIEZA] I really hate to break this to you,

but I've been holding back the lion's share

of my power for the sake of amusement.

But now I'm going to end this fight.

But before I do, I'd like to make you an offer:

[GOKU] I'm listening.

[FRIEZA] Join me.

You have so much potential, it would be a pity

to see it snuffed out and gone to waste.

What d'ya say?

I can't do it, sorry.

See, I have this nasty habit of following my heart.

And what does that get you?

With me you would live like a god.

Yes, you could have anything.

Or not. You could choose to suffer and die.

Your call...

No way.

I have everything that a man could want.

[FRIEZA] Oh-ho-ho, my!

You are so naive.

You know nothing of the pleasures of this Universe!

Any desire that you have could be instantly fulfilled!

But have it your way.

Die if you must.

But allow me to let you in on a little secret.

Hm? What's that?

Well... I haven't even begun to use my real power yet.

[GOKU] Yeah, well I have some reserves myself!

Yes, I know.

Five.

Five times what you've displayed.

Ten at the very most.

But I... I've only used one percent of my power.

Huh? What? No way!

You're bluffing!

It's just not possible!

Don't be glum.

You should actually be flattered.

I've never had to summon this much of my power

to defeat someone.

Fifty percent of my maximum.

That's all that's required for this.

[FRIEZA giggles]

[GOKU growls]

I guess when you realize this could be

your last fight, there's no hurry to start.

[GOHAN gasps]

[PICCOLO] No kidding.

We've all experienced that feeling before.

It's not easy.

But Goku seems to have a knack for handling

this type of situation.

Do you think my Dad can pull this one off?

It's hard to tell, Gohan.

At this point, both their powers

have gone beyond our imagination!

That is true...

[GINYU laughing]

[GINYU] Love it!

[laughing continues]

[GINYU grunts]

[GINYU laughs]

[BULMA] Ribbit... Ribbit...

[BULMA thinking] Who is this monster?!

How could he do this to me?!

I'm going to get him back if it's the last thing I do!

[GINYU] Well, look what we have here!

A stow-away, huh?!

Hmm...

This oughta take care of the toad problem!

[GINYU laughing]

[BULMA screaming]

[GINYU laughing]

[thinking] I hate her! She's obnoxious!

Wicked body-snatcher!

What did I do to deserve this?!

[BULMA sobs]

[BULMA screams]

[GINYU] Whoo-hooo!

[GINYU laughs]

[BULMA thinking] That does it!

Forget this! I can't take it anymore!

Geronimooo!

[GINYU laughing]

Huh?! Wait-- What're you doing?!

Are you crazy?! I can't see!

[GINYU] Let go of me!

I hate frogs!

What are you doing?!

[PICCOLO] What th--?!

[GINYU screams]

[GINYU] Get off of me!

Whoaaa! I'm too young to die!

[GINYU] Let go of me! I'm going to kill you!

[PICCOLO] Look out!

[BULMA grunts]

I still got it!

She's still got what?

[KRILLIN] Uhh, hey, Bulma!

What's going on?

I know you're mad at us for leaving you by yourself,

but it's really not safe for you to be here.

[GINYU chuckles]

Bulma...?

Are you okay...?

Did you get hit on the head or something?

[high-pitched GINYU] Hey, what's that?

That's where Goku and Frieza are fighting...

[high-pitched GINYU] Really?! Wow! There they are!

[KRILLIN] Hey! Bulma, no! Wait!

[high-pitched GINYU] Oh, my! This is fantastic!

[GINYU giggles]

Ooh, yes. Now I'm stoked.

You're choosing to die

instead of joining me?

It's a real shame.

[FRIEZA giggles]

Huh?

[FRIEZA] You Saiyans are really something else.

So proud.

So obstinate.

You're just like Vegeta and Vegeta's father.

And that radical, Bardock.

You're all alike.

Too stubborn to recognize a good deal.

Just like moths, rushing into a flame to die.

But what can I do?

You leave me no other choice.

[FRIEZA] We could have been so good together...

[high-pitched GINYU] Oh, yeah!

This is going to be one fabulous show! This is awesome!

[GINYU thinking] This is strange!

In this body, I can clearly sense the intensity level

of each of their powers!

Vegeta learned how to read power levels like this!

[GINYU giggles]

[GINYU] This is great! Ahem..

[high-pitched GINYU] This is great!

Say what?

[KRILLIN] Are you okay, Bulma?

--[BULMA] Ribbit... --[GOHAN] Hm?

[BULMA thinking] Oh, please!

[BULMA] Ribbit... Ribbit-Ribbit?

[GOHAN] What's up?

[BULMA thinking] Oh, Gohan, it's me, Bulma!

Somehow that fiend managed to steal my body

and now look at me!

It's just awful!

You've got to help me Gohan!

[high-pitched GINYU] Enough already!

I want to see some action!

[BULMA thinking] That's an imposter!

[GOHAN] Hmm...?

Oh, I get it! Yeah!

[BULMA thinking] Oh, you precious boy!

You really do understand!

You're Captain Ginyu, right?

[BULMA screams]

You know, it's not a good idea to

be hanging around here.

Besides, you have a whole new world to explore!

[BULMA sobs]

[BULMA thinking] Why me?! This is horrible!

[FRIEZA] I am now at fifty percent of my maximum.

[FRIEZA] With this increase, your limitations

will soon become apparent.

Oh, my gosh...

He's not bluffing!

[FRIEZA growls]

Huh?!

[GOKU grunts]

Huh--?

[GOKU grunts]

[thinking] This isn't looking too good.

How can I fight him, if I can't see him?

[GOKU gasps]

[FRIEZA] My, you're edgy.

I was just scratching my nose.

[GOKU shouts]

[GOKU grunts]

[GOKU grunting]

[FRIEZA] Has it become clear to you yet?

You never had a chance.

I only let you think you did.

[PICCOLO] Goku!

[GOHAN] Dad, are you alright?

[GOHAN whimpers]

[high-pitched GINYU] Incredible!

Now that's what I call speed!

I can't believe that I have the priviledge

of watching this fight!

This is monumental! What a match-up!

Gosh!

This is his greatest battle ever!

And here I am to witness it!

Bulma, I know the fight is a big deal and all,

but it's really not a time to celebrate!

Bulma?

Goku's not faring too well at the moment.

--[high-pitched GINYU] Oopsie! --[KRILLIN grunts]

Do me a favor...

After the fight's over remind me to kill you guys!

[BOTH] Huh?!

[GINYU] Oh!

[high-pitched GINYU giggles]

Well, if she's threatening us,

that means she's back to normal.

[KRILLIN sighs]

[GOKU grunts]

[thinking] Man!

How can he be that fast?!

I should at least be able to follow him!

You should strike. Now, while my back's turned!

What's wrong?

Don't tell me that the great Super Saiyan

is throwing in the towel already?

What a disappointment.

[GOKU growls]

[ROSHI] These things hurt my toes, they're too small!

[YAJIROBE] Here we go!

I bet it's going to be all up to me again!

[PUAR] Time to buckle down!

[DR. BRIEF] Lift-off is in ten minutes.

I'm glad you all could make it!

Yep! Big day! Wow.

[OOLONG grunts]

[OOLONG] Man! I feel like a real stud in this spacesuit!

[CHICHI] Alright, guys!

Let's do it!

[DR. BRIEF] I'm cutting the umbilical cord.

Stand back, everybody.

[DR. BRIEF] If you have anything to say,

you'd better say it now!

[OX-KING] ChiChi! You just get Gohan,

and let Goku handle the fighting!

Do I make myself clear?

[CHICHI] But, Dad, you don't drink beer!

Bon Voyage, everybody!

Bye-bye! We love you!

[OX-KING] I don't think she understood me...

[MRS. BRIEF] Oh, she'll be just fine!

[CHICHI] I've never flown in outer space before...

My little Gohan is so brave!

Oh, man!

I'm feeling a little claustrophobic. Oh, no!

[PUAR] Oh, Yamcha, we'll wish you back somehow. I promise.

Come on! Blast-off!

Before this rabbit's foot disintegrates!

Alright. This is it.

We're powering up you guys.

[enginge activates]

Forget the suit! I want out of here!

Oh, man, this totally stinks!

I'll be good from now on!

I'll change! I swear!

Just help me out this one last time!

No kidding!

Please! I really mean it this time!

I promise! For real!

[OOLONG] Would ya shut up?!

You're seriously freakin' me out!

[ROSHI] Here goes!

Final countdown!

[COMPUTER] Initiating countdown!

Ten... Nine... Eight... Seven... Six... Five...

--Four... Three... Two... --No! I can't do it!

--One... Lift off. --Let me out of here, please!

[engine sputters]

Hm?

Huh?

Hey! Welcome back!

[ALL scream]

[YAJIROBE screams]

[GOKU growls]

[GOKU grunts]

[GOKU grunts]

[GOKU grunts]

Huh...?

What's wrong?

You don't seem to be having any fun.

Loosen up.

No one likes a sore loser.

[GOKU grunts]

[GOKU yells]

[FRIEZA laughs]

It won't be long now, will it?

But I commend you for surviving this long.

[KING KAI] Oh, dear!

I'm afraid this could be it, guys!

He's just too strong!

Yeah, but I bet Goku is still wearing

his weighted training clothes, isn't he?

Hmm-mm...

I'm afraid not, Yamcha.

Goku's giving it everything he's got.

Wow! This IS serious!

[CHIAOTZU] Goku still has a chance, doesn't he, King Kai?

[KING KAI] Well, Chiaotzu... It's not looking too good.

I can tell you that.

[BOTH whimper]

[GOKU growls]

Huh?

Huh?!

Goku...

[TIEN] I wouldn't worry too much about Goku yet, Chiaotzu!

No sweat...

He's gonna be fine.

[YAMCHA] What?

[TIEN] Don't forget, Goku still has an ace up his sleeve.

Thanks to you.

Goku hasn't used the Kaio-Ken Attack yet!

He'll set Frieza straight when he does!

Right on!

[YAMCHA laughs]

[TIEN] He can still win!

[CHIAOTZU laughs]

[KING KAI] Knock it off!

You're all being foolish!

[KING KAI] You don't know what you're talking about!

Goku has been using the Kaio-Ken Attack the entire time!

But now Frieza is picking him apart,

even when he's fully energized by the attack!

I don't know how long he can last...

We may have to step in, so stay on your toes!

Come on, Dad!

[high-pitched GINYU giggles]

[high-pitched GINYU] This is great!

[ALL] Huh?

She's lost it.

[high-pitched GINYU] It looks like Frieza's going to win

after all!

[high-pitched GINYU giggles]

I should have known!

[PICCOLO] Look!

Shut up or leave! And that's final!

[high-pitched GINYU] Oh!

[KRILLIN] Are you sure you're okay, Bulma?

[high-pitched GINYU] Yes!

I guess I got carried away for a second there...

Sorry, guys!

[BULMA whines]

[KRILLIN & GOHAN] Huh?

Hey!

[high-pitched GINYU] What's the matter, guys...?

Why are you looking at me so funny?

You wouldn't hurt a lady, would you? Hmmmm?!

[GINYU laughs]

Hey! Look out!

It's Ginyu!

[NARRATOR] the situation has become desperate for Goku!

With the Kaio-Ken Attack

rendered useless by Frieza, where does

the mighty Saiyan from Earth go from here?!

it seems that only a miracle can save him!

And what does the shameless body-snatcher

Captain Ginyu have in store for Piccolo and the others?
