[NARRATOR] Previously on Dragon Ball Z,

a strong new version of Majin Buu,

now dominated by hatred, arrived atop the Lookout,

and when Piccolo could not produce the challenger,

who had been promised,

Majin Buu unleashed a horrific power:

The Human Extinction Attack.

[NARRATOR] Out of the entire population of Earth,

less than twenty humans now remain.

It was a blow that would lay heavily

on Piccolo's conscience.

Human Extinction Attack!

How do you like it? Now where is the strong one?

I see. Yes. We just need a short time to prepare him.

He... He can be ready in one hour if that's okay?

Please, Buu!

What's an hour? How long is it?

[NARRATOR] Realizing Goten and Trunks were not strong enough

to fight this altered form,

Piccolo has managed to buy one hour's time,

time that will be stretched to its maximum

as the two young fighters enter

the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for final, desperate training.

Will Piccolo's daring plan succeed?

Man, is that really Majin Buu?

If it is, he must be on a big diet.

[PICCOLO] Make no mistake.

That is Majin Buu

and his strength has increased substantially.

You boys need to understand.

We're in a very grave situation, things have changed.

For every minute out here

you can train six hours in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Maybe that's enough.

Mom, where are you going?

What?!

Whatever it is you're doing ChiChi, stop it.

You savage, do you even care that you killed my oldest son?!

You look at me when I'm talking to you!

[gasping]

Do you like eggs?

Huh?

[screams]

Ahhhhh!

My mother...

[GOTEN] I'll get you, you stupid beast!

[PICCOLO] No, Goten!

You go down and we're all dead!

But Mom was all I had left.

Goten...

Listen we can bring your mother back with the Dragon Balls

provided only one thing,

that you and Trunks stay alive

long enough to wipe out Majin Buu!

[PICCOLO] There is no way to beat him at your current

power levels, and we've got less than an hour left

so the two of you must train quickly.

Can you do it?

[GOTEN] Uh-huh.

Yeah, sure you can Goten!

We've all lost someone by now-

but that just means we have to beat Buu harder! Right?!

[GOTEN] Mm-hmm.

That's right!

Wow, this place is cool.

I wonder if they've got any food around here?

My body feels kinda weird and heavy.

Hey Goten, do you feel that?

Hey, you don't have to be in such a rush you know!

A minute on the other side is like hours and hours over here,

so we've got time to spare.

Huh?!

Piccolo forgot to mention there's nothing to eat.

Wow, Goten,

whoever was in here last must've really wiped it out!

Nothing but brown rice and water in the fridge!

I don't know about you but I could really

go for a roast beef sandwich or...

Huh?!

Hey, don't start without me!

[TRUNKS] Wait a second.

[VIDEL] Piccolo?

Hmm?

[VIDEL] Earlier when you were speaking to Majin Buu,

you talked about my father like the two of them knew each other.

[PICOOLO] Yes.

[VIDEL] But I don't get it.

How could my father have known Majin Buu?

Your father is a hero,

he took it upon himself to journey to Majin Buu's home

and fight him on his own ground.

[PICCOLO] For reasons we don't know,

Mr. Satan did not fight Majin Buu.

Instead, the two forged a friendship.

Your father is the only human being

Majin Buu seems to appreciate.

Although other circumstances brought it to a halt,

your father nearly made Buu adopt a life of peace.

He may have transformed into this evil entity now,

but Buu still has a potent memory of a man

and the kindness he showed a monster.

Your dad will never have the powers that we do, Videl.

But his compassion exceeds any victory

he could ever achieve in the ring.

My dad...?

[SUPER BUU growls]

Aaaaaaaaahh!

No more, no more waiting!

No, it's only been thirty minutes!

Wait! You won't have a challenge if you fight him now!

The hour isn't over!

I'm done. I'm done waiting. I'm fighting.

Come out!! Do you hear me?!

Aaaaahhh!

[KRILLIN] Watch out!

[KRILLIN] Hurry up!

Ow!

That's gonna hurt in the morning...

[YAMCHA] Whoa, this isn't good.

Why don't we get Trunks and Goten?

They've got to have finished their training by now!

Would you stop worrying about yourself?!

[KRILLIN] Oh, forget the morning, it hurts right now.

What happened out here?

Okay, I'll take you to him. Let's go.

[PICCOLO] It's this way.

It looks like Piccolo is taking him right

to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Goten and Trunks won't be expecting Buu

to pop his head in that early!

[YAMCHA] That's weird.

Why doesn't Piccolo just bring out Goten and Trunks?

[KRILLIN] You think they're actually going to fight inside?

If they do fight Majin Buu inside

the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and the entrance is destroyed,

then that dimension will be closed off from this one.

Even if Trunks and Goten lose, Earth might still be saved.

But whoever is left inside will be trapped, maybe forever.

Ahh!

Hey!

But we can't wish them back from another dimension, can we?

[PICCOLO] The Dragon Balls are not bound by the limits

of different dimensions.

We will be able to wish them back, if they're killed.

Well, it sure seems like Piccolo has cooked up one mean strategy.

[ROSHI] Oh! Speaking of what's cookin'... Hehehehe!

[BULMA growls]

[SUPER BUU] Do we have to climb all of these stairs?

[PICCOLO] I'm afraid so.

[KRILLIN] Well, at least they're walking slow.

Roshi!

You're facing the wrong way!

Oh! Hahaha! Thanks for the directional help, honey.

Doesn't it seem like Piccolo's taking the long way around?

Yes. He's missed three turns

that would have taken him directly to the room.

[KRILLIN] I bet he's stalling to give them more time.

I mean since one minute over here is worth six hours

in the time chamber, the longer he takes, the better.

Come on, how far is it?

Not too far, we have to go down a few flights to reach them.

[SUPER BUU] Down? After climbing up all this way?

[PICCOLO] I assure you, it's the only way to get there.

[GOTENKS] Gotenks, over and out.

Man, that's a work out.

Hahaha.

It sure is neat to know there's levels even higher

than Super Saiyan, huh?

Hmph! Now there's no way he can beat us.

We weren't half this strong when we came in here.

Trunks, I'm beat.

It feels like all of my energy

has just fallen right out of my body.

And I think we might still have a problem with time.

[TRUNKS] Let's look.

[TRUNKS] See, by the time we figured out our trick,

we only had five minutes left before we separated.

Okay, so we'll try jumping to the new super level

as soon as we fuse,

and then we'll beat him in like four minutes!

But that's stupid to win so fast!

Warriors drag out their fights as long as possible!

I'm telling you, Goten, after this week of training in here,

we're strong enough to fight off Buu

even if we don't turn into a regular Super Saiyan!

So, I'm thinking we start fighting him

with our normal fusion,

getting in as many hits as we can, right?

Spending as much time as possible playing around.

Then we make it look like we can't take anymore,

and that's when we spring it on him!

We go to our new Super Saiyan thing

as fast as we can and we got him!

By that time he'll tired and confused!

It'll be the kind of move people will never forget!

Uh-huh. Hahaha!

Then he'll be sorry for what he did to Gohan,

and your mom, and my dad! Ha!

Yeah, that's the plan.

Where are they?!

[PICCOLO thinking] Please, don't run out of patience yet.

It's not far now.

[PICCOLO telepathically] Goten, Trunks, can you hear me?

--Huh? --Huh?

[PICCOLO telepathically] Don't be frightened, boys.

It's me, Piccolo.

Piccolo?

[PICCOLO telepathically] Be quiet and listen

very carefully to me.

The two of you are going to fight Majin Buu

earlier than expected.

He's on his way to you as I speak.

Ahhh! But we're so tired,

I don't know if we have the energy to stand up right now.

[PICCOLO telepathically] It's all right, Goten.

I'm taking the long way around to give you some extra time.

We should arrive at the door in one minute.

That gives you six hours to recuperate.

Do everything you can to prepare. Sleep.

Drink some water. Stretch your muscles out.

I believe in you boys. We all do.

And I'm counting on you to finish this.

[PICCOLO telepathically] Good luck to you both.

Hah!

Six hours is more than enough time for us.

You know what Trunks?

For the first time ever,

I actually feel sorry for Majin Buu.

[laughing]

Would you care to eat before the fight?

No!

I don't want to eat.

You take me there now, before I break you in half!

[PICCOLO] Of course.

[PICCOLO] Here we are.

Where is he?

[SUPER BUU] Hmm?

You ready, Goten?

Yeah!

What about Buu?

Doesn't look it.

Cool, let's do this.

Those kids?

[PICCOLO] That's right.

[PICCOLO thinking] Even if these boys are perfectly trained,

we still need a miracle.

All that training

and Piccolo is the only one who came to watch us.

Why didn't anyone else come?

Where is the fighter?

It's them.

[TRUNKS] We might not have an audience,

but let's still give a good show.

[GOTEN] Mm-hmm.

This is the end for you...

...Majin Buu.

Don't you think it's a little bit stupid

that I just say "Majin Buu."

You had a few more lines there.

Is it my fault if you can't remember them?

Let's begin!

[TRUNKS] Looks like the bad guy's getting impatient.

Should we show him our moves?

Oh, all right.

Ready?

Let's go!

[TRUNKS] Ow!! What's wrong with you?

You can't just come in swinging like that, without any warning.

Don't you know what a sucker punch is?

That's something only inexperienced fighters do.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

We're trying to prepare so we can give you a fair fight.

So why don't YOU try some, patience?

Now, we're going to power up.

You stand there and be quiet.

I'll tell you when it's time to fight.

Let's try this thing again. Ready?

Yep!

[BOTH] Go!

Fu--

[PICOLO thinking] What are they doing?

Why aren't they starting as Super Saiyans?

[BOTH] --sion!

Ha!

That's perfect! Their power levels are exactly equal.

Ha!

Nice to see you again Majin Buu!

Ah, yes. There's my fighter,

too bad no one else is here to witness your final hour.

Final hour? That's pretty clever.

Guess you can tell jokes now that you're not a tub of lard!

But I've been changing too and you're in for a real surprise

when my fists start flying.

This is really stunning.

His power level has increased dramatically.

Maybe he can actually win this.

Huh? Huh?

You said you'd tell me when I can start fighting.

Yeah, okay just wait here for a second.

[GOTENKS thinking] So much for the plan.

After that kind of attack, he's not even bruised.

I'll just have to show him a few of my secrets.

[NARRATOR] It looks like Majin Buu

is even stronger than the boys had predicted.

But Gotenks has several more tricks up his sleeve.

The only question is: Will they be enough?

This could be a problem.
