Episode 41: The Eldest Namek

In the beginning of this episode, Krillin and Dende finally make it to the eldest Namek. Krillin explains his cause for the dragonballs and the eldest namek tells him about the story when a Namek of the "Dragon Family" came to earth and later split with himself to rid the evil from him. He explains that this is when Kami and Piccolo were formed. Guru (The Eldest Namek) gives Krillin the one-star dragonball and reveals he is going to die within the next few days and Krillin must hurry to gather the dragonballs before then. He then awakens Krillin's hidden powers, making him more powerful than ever before. Then, Krillin takes off and heads to get to Bulma and Gohan. Meanwhile, one of Freeza's guards arrives at the Namek village Vegeta destroyed. He asks an injured Namek who did it and the Namek tells him a saiyajin warrior did. The Namek starts to talk about the dragonballs, but the henchman kills him and takes off to Freeza. At Freeza's ship, Freeza yells at Zarbon to go back and make sure Vegeta's dead and if he's not, to bring him back to the ship to tell where he put the other dragonballs. The guard then returns, but Freeza is furious because he didn't bring back Vegeta.

Episode 42: Get Vegeta

After Freeza kills the guard, he summons the Ginyu Force because he has a creepy feeling about the saiyajins and the warriors from earth. Zarbon can't believe he's actually summoning the Ginyu Force. Zarbon retrieves an unconcsious Vegeta and puts him in the rejuvination tank so he can get him to talk later, regarding the location of the Dragonballs. Meanwhile, Bulma detects a dragonball heading toward their location, which is Krillin. Then, she sees a lone dragonball on the dragon-radar and she sends Gohan to go get it. Gohan figures out it's at the village that Vegeta attacked and Vegeta is no longer there. Then, he goes off to get it. On Kaio's planet, Yamcha, Tenshinhan, and Chaozu are switching off trying to catch Bubbles. Piccolo refuses to catch the monkey (BUT HE ALREADY DID CATCH BUBBLES!) and Kaio calls everyone in for lunch. Tenshinhan, Yamcha, and Chaozu devour the food quickly and start off with renewed strength. They all immediately catch Bubbles and Kaio summons Gregory, for their next task. They all start to try to hit Gregory and Piccolo says he is going off to train himself. An hour and 5 minutes later, Gregory is flung into Kaio, who is taking a nap. They reveal that they all have finished hitting Gregory. Kaio decides their next training excercise will be the art of grappling, which Piccolo shows up for. Piccolo decides to take on Yamcha, Tenshinhan, and Chaozu all at once.

Episode 43: Vegeta Revived

At first, Piccolo does well against Yamcha, Tenshinhan, and Chaozu, but starts to lose when he realizes they have gotten stronger. Then, when it looks as if Piccolo is going to be beaten, Kaio decides its time for lunch (again?). Meanwhile, one of Freeza's guards is mocking Vegeta in the rejuvination room, when Vegeta awakens and kills him. Zarbon and Vegeta feel the explosion and head into the recovery room. Vegeta is hiding and when they come in, he sneaks down the hall and yells, firing a blast to make it look like he's somewhere else. Zarbon races over to the blast to find him, but they hear another explosion which is Vegeta shooting open the window of the room where Freeza's dragonballs are. Freeza realizes what Vegeta is doing and he and Zarbon runs to the room where the dragonballs were, and Vegeta has already thrown the dragonballs out and is gone. The furious Freeza yells at Zarbon to find Vegeta, but Vegeta easily outsmarts them by going into a nearby lake to hide. Then, Freeza lectures Zarbon angrily and tells him he has one hour to find Vegeta or he'll have to answer to him again. Zarbon flies out to find Vegeta. Meanwhile, Gohan finds the dragonball in the lake Vegeta hid it in and flies back to Bulma's hideout. Vegeta comes out of the lake somewhere near Freeza's ship and locates the five dragonballs he threw. When he goes up to collect them, he sees Krillin racing past with a dragonball and chases after him. Zarbon then sees Vegeta and chases after him.
