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

The demented Dr. Gero escaped to his

mountain hideout to carry out the final phase

of his evil plan.

The doctor, now an android himself,

activated two more of his mechanical monsters.

The first to awaken was 17, a black haired boy

with super strength and intelligence.

Next out was 18, a computer driven diva

with blonde hair and a bad attitude.

Don't let their looks fool you!

They may appear harmless, but these two

are programmed to pulverize planet earth!

And while Krillin and the others force

their way into the secret lab,

Dr. Gero's about to find out that

his menacing machines have minds of their own.

[DR. GERO] Huh? Android 17! What are you doing?

Then let's try another idea.

[DR. GERO] What?! What have you done?

You dare to defy me? I created you!

You're not going to put us to sleep again, old man.

Rats! It's sealed shut!

[VEGETA] Out of the way! I'll blast it open!

[ALL] Huh?

Don't do it! We can't beat the androids without Goku!

Stop it! You don't understand how powerful they are!

Too late, kid!

[PICCOLO, KRILLIN gasp]

[VEGITA] Well, well...

What have we here that has you all so nervous?

A boy with long hair and a scarf around his neck,

and a beautiful young girl...

I take it these are the scary Androids

we've heard so much about?

That's them.

They're androids? They look just like humans to me!

[TRUNKS] Don't be fooled by the way they look.

They're both deadly!

And they're stronger than all of us!

[DR. GERO] Well...

Goku's friends are very determined to stop us...

But they will not!

[DR. GERO] We will destroy them

just as they destroyed Android 19!

Android 19?

So you built him after all!

[DR. GERO] Yes!

[ANDROID 17] I see.

But he was of a different design than 18 or myself.

He was an energy-absorbing model, was he not?

[DR. GERO] Yes, he was.

How very interesting.

And you've chosen that same design for yourself?

You thought that an energy-absorbing model like 19

would be easier to control?

Yes!

And now he's been destroyed!

[DR. GERO growls]

What are they up to?

[TIEN grunts]

[DR. GERO] That is enough questions for now.

I order you to destroy these intruders!

[ANDROID 17] Be quiet old man!

We will deal with them when we are ready.

What did you say?

[ANDROID 17 chuckles]

[DR. GERO growling]

[DR. GERO] I really wish you had not smashed the controller!

Ha!

[ANDROID 18] Yes, that's too bad, isn't it?

[ANDROID 18] Planning to use it for spare parts?

[DR. GERO] Huh?

[ANDROID 18] He's kind of lacking

in the looks department, isn't he?

I'd like to see what other modifications

you've made to him, Doctor!

[DR. GERO] You stay away from there! Do not open that chamber!

I order you to stay away from Android 16!

[TRUNKS] 16?! There's another android I didn't know about?

Go on. I think it is time to wake up our sleeping friend.

[ANDROID 18] Right!

[DR. GERO] No! Do not listen to him!

I have not completed his programming yet!

What?

Something's not right, in there!

You got that right!

[KRILLIN] Guys! Now would be a good time to attack!

Before they get their act together!

Step aside! I don't need your help to defeat these three!

[DR. GERO] I must get control of them!

The 16 is just a prototype.

If you activate it, it may malfunction.

[ANDROID 17 laughs] Let's find out!

No, 18!

I think it's time to send you to the scrap heap!

[DR. GERO groans]

[ANDROID 18] Now, where was I?

[DR. GERO growls]

[ANDROID 18] If 16 is just a prototype,

I wonder why you've kept him for so long?

You destroyed all the other androids up to 15, didn't you?

[DR. GERO] I was planning to repair him someday!

Listen, I made you,

and I am telling you that if you activate 16, you will regret it!

We will regret it?

I doubt that, old man.

[DR. GERO] Huh?

According to this data,

I am much stronger than this model is!

It makes no difference!

Hm. 18, go ahead and activate him. Now.

I am your creator! You will do as I tell you to do!

[DR. GERO] Stop meddling with Android 16 now!

Or I will force you to stop.

[ANDROID 17] Your controller is broken!

Then I will make another!

Hm.

For the last time! Do not release him!

[ANDROID 17 grunts] [DR. GERO groans]

[KRILLIN, TIEN gasp]

[PICCOLO grunts]

[VEGETA grunts]

[TRUNKS growls]

What have you done? How dare you?

Don't you know?

I gave you life!

And I can take it away!

[DR. GERO groans]

[DR. GERO grunting]

[KRILLIN yelping]

That does it! Now I am mad!

[ANDROID 17 grunts]

[PICCOLO grunts]

[TRUNKS grunts]

Did you see that? He squashed him like a bug!

[ANDROID 17 clears throat]

[KRILLIN] Uh, Vegeta? I think he wants to talk to you.

[ANDROID 17] You with the shiny head. Come here.

[KRILLIN gasps] You talking to me?

[KRILLIN yelps] No way! Not me!

[ANDROID 17 laughs] [VEGETA] Don't be a coward!

[VEGETA] Go on, fight him!

[KRILLIN] All by myself? Come on guys, we're in this together!

I'd like to keep my head on my shoulders.

Don't worry about it. I've got you covered, Krillin.

[TIEN, KRILLIN gasp]

[ANDROID 17 chuckles]

[KRILLIN sighs]

It looks like he took pity on you, loser!

That's too bad. You're so pathetic.

Now he knows you're scared.

[VEGETA] Next time he won't show you any mercy at all!

What?

[ANDROID 17] Open the chamber!

If they set that android free, it will be the end of all of us!

[TRUNKS] No!

[TRUNKS yells]

[KRILLIN] Get down!

[KRILLIN sighs]

[KRILLIN] Hey Trunks!

How about a little more warning the next time you do that?!

[VEGETA grunts] Bad move.

What'd you go and do that for?

[TRUNKS] What's wrong?

Well, look! Down there!

[TRUNKS] I don't understand.

There's no way anyone could survive that!

That was my most intense blast!

[VEGETA] Looks like you spoke too soon!

[TRUNKS gasps]

Now, that's too bad! By doing that,

You just showed them how weak you are!

Don't make me wait all day, 18.

Are you going to open it up or not?

Never let a boy do a man's job.

[TRUNKS grunting]

[ANDROID 18] Let's meet our new friend!

Oh, no, they did it!

Great. Now we'll have to fight another one!

[ANDROID 16 grunts]

[ANDROID 16 grunting]

Uh, guys? He's, uh, big! He's very big!

And he's ugly too!

[TRUNKS growls] I didn't know Dr. Gero made another android!

How could I have missed one?

Well, good morning.

It must feel good to get out of that coffin.

How long have you been cooped up in that container for, anyway?

Come on, speak. Did Dr. Gero not give you a voice box?

He tried to tell us it was dangerous to activate you.

Why would he say such a thing? Do you know?

Do you have something to say?

Hello, anybody home in there?

[ANDROID 17] The strong, silent type, huh?

Come on. Let's go!

Where to?

To complete our mission. Are you with me, 18?

16, Dr. Gero programmed you with a mission to destroy Goku.

Isn't that right?

[ANDROID 16] That's right!

I'll be. So, the big guy can speak after all!

Dr. Gero must have programmed him to react

only to commands that relate to his main objective.

[ANDROID 17] I didn't think the doctor was that smart,

but let's see if 16 can carry out his objective:

find Goku and destroy him!

[ANDROID 17] Let's get outta here!

[KRILLIN] Hey! They're leaving!

[VEGETA growling]

Good riddance. We're safe!

But, where do you think they're going?

Should we follow them?

If they went that direction they're not going

to South City. That's the other way!

I've got it! They've gone after Goku.

Yeah. Dr. Gero's goal was to get back

at Goku for destroying his Red Ribbon Army!

Yeah, but, do you still think those androids

will follow Dr. Gero's orders now?

[VEGETA growling]

I don't care where they went.

I'll track them down myself!

They're cowards.

They left because they were afraid of me.

And they should be!

[TRUNKS] No! Stop!

Stay here! Don't go after them!

You expect me to wait for Kakarot?

Kakarot? Oh, you mean Goku?

That's right! We need him for this battle!

[TRUNKS] We're only strong enough if we all stay together.

[VEGETA laughs] Sure, let's wait for Kakarot!

I mean wouldn't it be easier if we all just joined up

with the androids instead? He's history!

[TRUNKS growls]

[VEGETA] Now get out of my way before you get hurt!

And let me finish them off, by myself,

without Kakarot!

You can't!

If you face the androids alone, you will be destroyed for sure!

[TRUNKS] You must listen to me. Stay here!

[TRUNKS groans]

[KRILLIN gasps]

[VEGETA] Now, stay out of my way!

[TRUNKS groans]

[KRILLIN] What was that all about?

[TIEN] Trunks!

[KRILLIN] Are you okay?

Please, stop him!

We have to wait until Goku gets better, or we're all doomed!

We must wait!

[TRUNKS] Go after him!

But, Vegeta's long gone. We'll never catch up to him now!

Darn it! I sure wish Goku was here!

Goku...

We have to go after him!

There's no time to waste!

[BABY babbling] [BULMA cooing]

[YAJIROBE] My scarf, a diaper for that kid!

That's just great! What could be worse?

[BULMA] Yajirobe!

Hurry up with the diaper, would ya!

Just a minute!

Do you want poor little Trunks here to catch a cold?

[YAJIROBE] Hey, Don't worry,

we know he grows up to be big and strong!

Yeah, that is true.

That's right!

You're gonna grow up to be a big boy!

[BABY laughing]

[BULMA] That's a good boy!

That's right! Yajirobe has your pants!

[BULMA cooing]

[GOHAN] Bulma, I'm ready to go home anytime you are.

Oh, sure.

I guess you want to get home and see your Dad.

Let's go.

[BABY giggling]

[GOHAN] I hope he's feeling better by now.

Dad, I'm thinking of you!

[CHICHI humming]

If I know my Goku,

the first thing he's going to say

when he feels better is, "ChiChi, I'm starving!"

[CHICHI] So, I'm gong to whip up something special,

because he's going to pull through any minute now,

I just know he will!

[GOKU screaming]

[YAMCHA] Goku!

Hang on. Here take this!

[CHICHI] Goku?

[GOKU panting]

He's in pain!

Don't worry, ChiChi, Goku will pull through.

He's the toughest guy I know and no disease can slow him down.

He'll be back on his feet in no time.

[CHICHI] I hope you're right.

[YAMCHA] I think the medicine is working! He looks better now.

Do you think so?

[YAMCHA] Piccolo said Goku's disease could be contagious.

So, I'm going to take some of this medicine.

I think you'd better take some too!

Okay. But you buy your own!

Uh-- Come on! You know I'm good for it.

And I can pay you back next week!

[VEGETA] Why is everybody making such a big deal

about Kakarot? Who needs him anyway?

Have they forgotten that I'm a Saiyan too?

A Saiyan from a royal bloodline?

Well soon they will see how powerful I really am!

[BIRDS chirping]

[ANDROID 18] Is something wrong?

[ANDROID 17] No, don't blow a circuit.

I just wanted to enjoy the scenery from down here.

[ANDROID 18] So we walk?

No, we drive.

We're going to take the next automobile that passes by us.

So, how does that sound?

Hm. It sounds to me like you're being foolish.

17, why should we waste our time driving a car?

Because we've never done it before.

We're planning on taking a little car ride, 16.

[ANDROID 17] Do you wanna go too?

What? Did you just say "Goku"?

I guess I'll take that as a "yes".

Seems Goku is the only thing he has on his mind.

[ANDROID 17] Hm. That's strange.

It seems Dr. Gero created 16 without

any of the human personality traits that 18 and I have.

I'll be curious to see what other flaws

he has in his design.

[VEGETA] So, there you are!

[VEGETA] I didn't think you'd be this easy to find.

Run out of gas?

[ANDROID 17] There's something different about you.

What happened?

I'm showing my true self.

I'm the most powerful being on this planet!

And you're not welcome here!

[ANDROID 18] You're quite brave for someone all alone!

Don't worry. I came prepared!

[VEGETA laughs]

[VEGETA] I'm going to put you back in the crates

you crawled out of!

[BOTH chuckle]

You're laughing? Why is that? This is not a joke!

Tell me, are all of you Saiyans so

full of yourselves? Is Goku like you?

Is this the way you try to hide your incompetence?

[ANDROID 17] We androids will always be superior to your kind!

You take that back! You'll regret saying that!

You're nothing but a machine made of tin!

You're just a bunch of toys made by a crazy old man!

And don't forget that tin toys can be broken!

He talks too much.

What was that?

[ANDROID 18] 16! Let's see what you can do!

Destroy him!

I refuse.

[ANDROID 17 gasps]

So, the big guy's not so dumb, huh? Now, who's it going to be?

[ANDROID 17] He refuses?

Who does he think he is?

[ANDROID 18] Never mind him.

I'll handle this.

Ready? Little man?

[VEGETA] So, it's ladies first, is it?

That's fine with me!

Now, don't expect me to go easy on you.

I fight to win!

[NARRATOR] Android 18 looks like she's one

tough customer, but is she strong enough

to go one on one with a Super Saiyan?

Whatever the outcome Vegeta has got his

hands full with these three bionic brutes.

Is he ready to battle these mechanical monsters

all by himself?
