Original subtitles

[NARRATOR] Last time, on Dragon Ball Z,

chaos reigned in the cities as ordinary citizens

had been turned into evil maniacs by the Black Water Mist!

Animals and humans alike were infected by the dreaded mist!

Needless to say, this is one game of cat and mouse

that we all hope we never have to play!

[NARRATOR] Atop of Kami's Lookout,

the battle that would determine the fate

of the earth continued!

And it looked like Piccolo was up to the task!

But even though Kami was free

and had the Sacred Water in hand,

Garlic Jr. still had the last laugh.

There wasn't enough time to spread the remedy

over the earth before the changes

from the Black Water Mist became permanent!

[POPO] We might still have a chance, Kami.

[NARRATOR] Luckily, Mr. Popo knew of a way to beat the clock,

but the plan meant putting Kami's life in jeopardy!

While Kami and Mr. Popo set off on their mission

to distribute the Sacred Water,

Garlic Jr. squared off against Piccolo!

I want to show you something...

My source of power!

[NARRATOR] Piccolo was no stranger to Garlic Jr.'s ability

to transform into a powerful giant.

But with the proximity of the Makyo Star,

Garlic Jr.'s powers were at their zenith!

[grunts]

[NARRATOR] And so the incredible transformation began,

and the pesky elf of evil became a titan of terror,

right before Piccolo's very eyes!

[NARRATOR] Meanwhile, Kami and Mr. Popo

were walking on thin ice as unwelcome guests

at the ancient burial ground of guardians past!

Can Kami accomplish his mission without losing his life?

Find out, today!

[NARRATOR] High above the earth,

Kami's once beautiful sanctuary now stands in ruin

as the evil light from the Makyo Star

shines down from above!

[chuckles]

[SPICE and VINEGAR laugh]

[SPICE] Yeah, that's our boss!

[KRILLIN] Oh man. From blue dwarf to green giant! Yikes!

[VINEGAR] It's not over yet, kids!

We're just getting started!

[SPICE] Yeah, feast your eyes on this!

[yells]

[yells]

[SPICE and VINEGAR yelling]

[SPICE bellows]

[BOTH bellow]

[GARLIC JR. chuckles]

Skyscrapers!

[GOHAN] Man o' man!

There! Allow us to show you twerps

what the Spice Boys are made of!

[laughs, grunts]

[BOTH] Huh?

Hm?

[KRILLIN groans]

[yells]

You!

Ha! Peek-a-boo! Come to big daddy Garlic!

Huh?

[chuckles]

[GARLIC JR.] What's the matter?

You look a little stressed out, Piccolo!

[chuckles]

[KAMI] I'm not sure what that spirit did, Mr. Popo.

But for some reason I'm having trouble staying awake.

[POPO] Please, Kami! You have to fight it!

If you go to sleep in this place, you'll never wake up!

Kami!

[MALE VOICE] Leave him alone!

Let him rest! Can't you see how weary he is?

You know what it means when a guardian of the earth

passes through those gates, Mr. Popo!

[POPO] That voice!

Kami! Your predecessor!

What?

Are you sure, Mr. Popo?

[POPO] Yes, Kami! Absolutely!

So, Popo. You recognize me?

Yes, your guardianship.

I am happy to see you.

[POPO] It's been such a long time! I've missed you!

[MALE VOICE] You shouldn't have brought Kami here, Mr. Popo!

You know that!

Kami! He's gone!

[gasps]

He hasn't changed! My word!

Nothing could ever penetrate that thick head of his!

[MALE VOICE] What?

Please, your guardianship!

Surely you know the predicament that the earth is in!

Please, sir!

Just this one time!

Kami! Hold on!

[BOTH groan]

Please, I beg of you!

If you don't allow us to release the Sacred Water

from up here, it will never spread in time!

[KAMI] The people of Earth will be permanently altered

by the Black Water Mist!

This is our only chance! Please!

Oh, no! Kami, lookout!

[POPO yells]

My word! You're smoking, Mr. Popo! Are you all right?

[POPO] Don't worry about me, Kami. I'm fine!

But what now? He's not going to let us through, Kami!

I know him. Once he makes up his mind, it's all over.

[POPO] I'm afraid our mission here is hopeless.

We'll be lucky to get out of here alive!

[KAMI] Get ready, Mr. Popo! Let's break for it! Come on!

[POPO] Huh?

[KAMI] C'mon, Mr. Popo! Run like crazy!

[grunts]

[VINEGAR grunting]

[SPICE grunts]

Why you!

[BOTH yell]

Kami!

[KAMI] Faster, Popo!

[POPO] Yes, Kami!

[VINEGAR yells]

[KRILLIN groans]

Well! Fancy that!

[chuckles]

[VINEGAR] Hey! Found a meatball!

[grunts]

[chuckles]

You're dead, bone head!

[VINEGAR grunting]

Ha! Kick-off time!

[VINEGAR grunts]

Oh, no! Krillin!

[GOHAN] Krillin!

Huh? Aah!

[GOHAN] Krillin, no...!

[BOTH chuckle]

[GOHAN] Krillin!

Krillin...!

[GOHAN] No...!

No!

[yells]

No way!

Darn! Yes way!

Oh, no!

[VINEGAR and SPICE yell]

[GOHAN] Krillin!

[GARLIC JR. grunts]

The end of Piccolo...

[chuckles] ...and Kami!

[laughs]

[chuckles]

[GARLIC JR.] I guess Piccolo wasn't exactly

the pillar of strength he made himself out to be!

[laughs] Hm?

[GARLIC JR.] Hm... What a kid!

[GARLIC JR.] I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't

experienced it myself!

[GARLIC JR.] Congratulations! You've made the first cut!

It's too bad, but your friend Piccolo

wasn't as fortunate as you.

[grunts]

Hm! It's a shame! Isn't it, kid? Tough luck!

[chuckles]

[GARLIC JR.] You're mad, aren't you?

What are you going to do about it?

[GARLIC JR. growls]

Huh?

[GOHAN] Piccolo! Ha, ha, ha! You're all right!

Yeah, I'm fine!

[PICCOLO] This over-stuffed dwarf can't win.

You think you're so big!

Well how about taking on someone your own size? Like me!

[grunts, yells]

[yells]

[GOHAN] Wow! Piccolo! Unbelievable!

I didn't know he could expand his size like that!

Your power's increased. And you're big. But you're slow!

You can't sacrifice speed for power! Not against me!

[grunts]

[BOTH yell]

[BOTH] Ooh!

Popo, there's a wall.

Yes, Kami, I forgot.

I'm afraid we can not go any farther than this.

Not without the former guardian's permission!

[KAMI groans]

Kami! Please turn back now!

Or he'll never let us out of here alive!

Then so be it.

[yells]

That wasn't so bad.

Kami! Wow!

[KAMI] Head for the hills!

[POPO] Kami! Were you hit?

[KAMI] No, it's not that.

[gasps]

No! Fight it!

[KAMI] I'm trying, Mr. Popo,

but I'm feeling a little light headed.

And, light-handed!

Kami! You can do it! I believe in you!

Don't give up, please!

Very well, Mr. Popo.

Kami!

[PICCOLO groans]

What happened?

[GOHAN] Piccolo, what's wrong?

I know. It's that idiotic bird-brain.

[GARLIC JR.] You're losing power, aren't you?

Yes, that's it! Kami!

He must be having his soul stripped away as we speak!

[POPO] Kami, wait! I sense something ahead!

[BOTH yell]

[KAMI groans]

[PICCOLO groans]

[GARLIC JR. chuckles]

You've finally come to your senses!

[GARLIC JR. grunts] [PICCOLO groans]

[KAMI] No, I can't give up!

[yells]

[yells]

[yells]

[POPO] Kami, wait! There's another wall ahead!

[KAMI] Can't stop now, Popo!

But we're about to hit it!

[KAMI yells]

[POPO] Kami! Wait for me!

Can't move!

Oh, Kami! Your body! Look!

[KAMI] Yes, I see, Mr. Popo.

Not good...

[GARLIC JR. grunts]

[PICCOLO groans] [GARLIC JR. grunting]

Hey! What's wrong?

[KRILLIN] Gohan...!

Gohan. Look. Piccolo's losing power.

I-I think something terrible has happened to Kami!

H... Help him!

Krillin...

[groans]

Oh, yeah! Death blow! That's right! Time's up!

Oh... Kami, look!

I'll be darned! That's it, Mr. Popo!

[KAMI] The hole above the world's seven air-currents!

[POPO] I can't believe it, Kami! We really did it!

[POPO] Kami! Kami! No! Please!

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

It's the bottom of the ninth for you, Piccolo!

And here's the pitch!

[GARLIC JR.] Strike three! You're out of there!

It's the end of the game! You lose!

[groans]

[yells]

[yells]

[grunts]

[growls lowly]

[NARRATOR] Kami and Mr. Popo are just a stone's throw away

from reaching their goal, but suddenly,

their destination seems so very far away!

Does Kami have the strength of will to defy

the former guardians so that he can release

the Sacred Water in time?

[NARRATOR] Kami's predicament has Piccolo down for the count,

and it's all boiling down to this.

[NARRATOR] The battle for the earth is between Gohan...

and Garlic Jr.!

What can Gohan do to defeat a being armed with eternal life?!

Find out, on the next episode of Dragon Ball Z!
