01x38 - Nursing Wounds

[bunniefuu]

[NARRATOR] Last time,

on Dragon Ball Z!

Mr. Popo led Bulma into

the barren reaches

of Yunzabit Heights,

in search of an

ancient spacecraft

that had once

belonged to Kami.

When their home

planet was in danger,

Kami's parents must have

put him on board this ship

and sent him here

to save his life.

[BULMA] It must run

by voice command...

But that means all of the

commands are in Namekian!

Let's try it...

See if you can tell it

to fly us to Jupiter...

Topurukuppa Jupe!

[COMPUTER]

Topurukuppa Jupe.

Look, we're here!

We're already at Jupiter!

All right! Now we can

fly this thing to Namek!

[NARRATOR] The adventure

continues... today!

[welding sounds]

[DR. BRIEF] I kind of feel

a little embarrassed asking,

but do you know

anything about

integrated micro-circuit

feedback loops

and their effect on after

burner ignition rates?

[BULMA] I didn't understand

anything you just said.

So, I guess just

plug stuff in

where it looks like it

fits and hope it works!

[DR. BRIEF]

Right-o!

He's got it all under

control, and don't worry,

it's an awesome ship...

It took us to Jupiter

in under ten seconds...

Seriously, I blinked,

and we were there.

Can you speak up? I'm having

a hard time hearing you.

I'm talking as loud

as I possibly can!

What?

I can't talk now, Krillin.

[welding sounds continue]

I can barely hear

myself think.

But, I'll stop by later...

And we can talk then.

[CHICHI humming]

What?

Heh, nothing...

Don't mind me.

[humming continues]

Here.

No...

Thank you.

Gohan, eat or you'll

never get better.

Do you want to spend the rest

of your life in a hospital?

No.

Good news... Goku!

[GOKU] Huh?

[door shuts]

Hey! Bulma said she

found a space ship

to take her to

Planet Namek.

She's already been

to Jupiter and back!

Her dad's

fixing it up now!

[GOKU]

Sounds great.

[GOHAN groans]

[KRILLIN snoring]

[footsteps]

[door opens, closes]

[CHICHI hums]

I thought these might

brighten up the room a bit.

Ah?

My little boy... Mm?

Huh?

[grunts angrily]

[CHICHI] What did you

do with my son?!

What do

you mean?

He's not here,

so where is he?

The last time I saw him, he

was in bed, reading his book.

That poor boy's hurt,

he needs to be in bed.

[grunts angrily]

[KRILLIN whimpers]

[CHICHI] And you just

let him run off!

[KRILLIN and GOKU scream]

Thanks for

the flowers.

[car horns honk]

[GOHAN grunts]

Yow!

[GOHAN screams]

[GOHAN sighs]

That was...

a close one.

Gohan!

Surely he couldn't

go too far.

The doctor said his

legs were so weak.

I hope he doesn't

overexert himself!

[GOHAN grunting]

Here goes.

See, I knew

I felt better.

[CHICHI] Gohan!

Gohan!

Gohan!

I've been looking

all over for you.

Oh, hi Mom...

I, uh, thought some fresh

air would do me some good,

so I came up

here to read.

You had me

worried sick!

[GOHAN yells]

Hop on and we'll

go back to the room.

But... I can walk...

I feel fine.

[CHICHI]

Don't be silly.

Now, chop, chop...

Come on, Gohan.

There... See? That's

not so bad, now is it?

[BULMA] If the ship holds

up like I think it will...

Then we could easily make

it to the Planet Namek

in less than a

month's time...

I still have a few

repairs to make.

But I'd say we could leave

within the next five days.

Wonderful luck.

I thought we'd

never find a way

to get the Dragon Balls.

Great job!

Yes, congratulations, Bulma.

You've saved the day.

Well, Mr. Popo

found the ship.

And with his help, I'll find

the Dragon Balls in no time!

Huh? But, Bulma,

I can't go with you.

[BULMA] What?

I'm really sorry, Bulma,

but I can't go and abandon

the Lookout for two

months... I can't.

But you're the only person

I know who can speak Namek,

and how am I going to

start the ship without you?

You know, this entire mission

was counting on you!

You can't

just back out!

I'm sorry...

I have to stay here.

[BULMA gasps]

[KRILLIN] Don't worry, Bulma,

we'll figure something out!

I'm sure Mr. Popo can teach

you the Namekian words

you need to use

the computer!

I guess... It shouldn't

be too hard to grasp.

But, I don't wanna

go all by myself.

So who's gonna come

along to keep me company?

Hey, let's not everyone

volunteer at once.

I thought you

were my friends.

I am your friend,

but there's no way

you're getting me

in that tin can.

Yeah, like she was

really hoping you'd go.

[ROSHI] Ahem.

Two months alone

with Bulma...

Sign me up!

It'll be the trip of

a lifetime, I promise!

You better watch

yourself, old man!

Yes, ma'am.

Goku can't make it either...

That leaves you.

Krillin, will

you go with me?

It's not that I don't

want to help...

But I need

training...

We could be att*cked

again at any moment...

And I want to be

ready next time.

Krillin... You can't

pass this up...

It would be a great

opportunity for training

once you get

to Planet Namek.

Alright, I'll go,

but when I get back,

I wanna see you in perfect

fighting mode again, Goku.

[GOKU] Don't worry about me.

I'll be out of here in no time.

Hey... Guys?

[CHICHI] What's wrong, Gohan?

Do you have a tummy ache?

[GOHAN groans]

I want to go with

Bulma and Krillin!

Wait a minute, Gohan...

You... don't wanna leave

me alone for two months.

But, Mom, Dad will

be here with you...

And... I really want

to go with them.

I... can't believe

what I'm hearing...

You'd rather go with

them than stay with me?!

Sorry, mom... But...

I really need to...

...try to help

bring Piccolo back.

ChiChi... Aw, let him go.

[CHICHI] I can't take

this anymore! I swear!

Why couldn't I have

a normal family

that sits down

and eats dinner?!

And talks about

their day!

And then maybe watches

some TV and goes to bed.

[ROSHI] You better find

a safe spot to stand in...

[GOHAN]

Don't be silly, Mom.

[CHICHI] I'm silly?

My son tells me I'm silly?!

I'm not the one who wants to

run around and be a superhero!

[GOHAN] Bulma, you'll take

me with you, won't you?

[CHICHI]

That's it!

I'm putting my

foot down, Gohan!

I won't let you leave me again.

You just came home!

After you had been gone

for a whole year, Gohan!

You're a child!

Act like one!

Don't throw away

your childhood

trying so hard to

be a brave adult!

Being a kid's the

best part of life!

You should be making friends

and playing baseball!

Not trying to

save the world!

I'm going!

[KRILLIN and ROSHI whimpering]

How did I raise such

a stubborn child?

There's no time for those

childish things, anymore.

My friends are gone, and

they're not coming back.

[GOHAN] I've got to help

find the Dragon Balls.

Mom, Piccolo d*ed

trying to help me,

so I think I should do

everything I can to help him.

I can't sit around and do

nothing while Piccolo needs me.

I'm sorry I

yelled at you, Mom.

But I have to try...

You see, they're my friends.

[YAJIROBE chuckling]

Pretty good speech, kid.

You sure didn't learn

that from your father.

[OX KING]

Don't worry, ChiChi.

[OX KING] You have

a brave son there.

I'm sure he'll make

it back just fine.

[thinking]

That's my boy, Gohan...

Go show 'em what

you're made of.

I promise to keep an eye on

him at all times, ChiChi.

Nothing will happen

to your little boy.

[BULMA] And besides,

Krillin will be there, too.

Do you think you can learn

Namekian in five days?

Don't know... It could

take me a while longer

to input all the information

into the translator...

Hey... How 'bout we

meet up in ten days?

Sure.

On Namek,

hello is "Piconat".

[BULMA] "Picanot".

[COMPUTER beeping]

You get a clean

bill of health.

[KRILLIN screams]

[ALL laughing]

Aren't you

finished yet?

Be patient... Even

superheroes have to spend

some quality time

with their moms.

[CHICHI] It's time to

take your medicine.

I'll get

some water.

Give it a try.

Here goes.

Don't hold

back, Gohan...

I need to see if

you're really okay.

Okay.

[GOHAN] Hyaah!

Good... I think

you're ready, Gohan.

You sure made a

quick recovery.

But then again, I had

no doubt you would.

You've gotten

so strong!

[NARRATOR]

After ten stressful days

preparing for

the long journey,

the group gathered on

Master Roshi's island

to say their goodbyes and

set out for Planet Namek.

[KRILLIN]

I don't know...

You sure this

thing can make it

there and back in one piece?

It doesn't look very big.

[BULMA] It'll get

the job done, Krillin.

[BULMA] And besides,

if I were you,

I wouldn't be complaining

about a free ride.

You're lucky I'm gonna

let you sit up front.

You were going in

with the luggage.

[KRILLIN laughing nervously]

You think I'm

joking, but I'm not.

Did you do something with your

hair? Looks really good.

[BULMA] And don't try to win me

over with cheap compliments.

No, I mean it!

Well, thanks... I cut it

to fit in my space helmet.

That reminds me...

I wanted to ask you if I'm

gonna need a space suit.

'Cause I don't

have one.

It's not something people keep

in their closet, you know.

You'll be fine

without it.

Look! There's Gohan now!

Sorry we're late...

It took a while to

get all packed up,

but you wouldn't believe

how much stuff we've brought.

I hope you have

enough room in there.

This thing doesn't

look that big.

Come on, Gohan... Everyone's

out here waiting for you.

What's wrong, Gohan?

Why won't you come out?

[ALL gasp]

Are you feeling okay?

You sure you want to go?

[GOHAN] Mm-hmm...

[KRILLIN laughing]

I worried about not

having a space suit...

At least I don't have to

wear a little uniform.

Yeah... Dad thought I

looked pretty funny, too.

I don't know why.

I think it makes him look

like the cutest thing...

Well, don't you

think so, Gohan?

[KRILLIN] So, what's

with all this stuff?

Here's his

underwear, toothbrush,

coloring book,

and sleep mask.

And here's some snacks for

the trip and his medicine.

And we have

a hairdryer,

full dinner set with

salad and dinner forks, multi--

I think we

get the picture.

Can we go now?

This suit is heavy...

I'm looking forward

to zero gravity.

Careful out there...

You never know what

you might come up against.

Right.

Piccolo.

Bye, Grandpa...

Bye, Mom...

Bye, Master Roshi...

Bye, Turtle!

We'll be back. And

hopefully with our friends.

Piccolo.

[OX KING] Don't get

in too much trouble!

Bye, Gohan.

Mommy loves you!

Bye!

Wow, it's nice.

I'm impressed.

So, where should

I put this?

You said there was

a luggage compartment.

Just throw it in the

corner and sit down...

I'd hold on

to something.

What's wrong Bulma?

Are you mad?

No, I'm just

ready to leave...

We're departing

in five seconds.

Wait, Bulma, we're

not strapped in yet!

[BULMA]

... ... ... ... !

Uh, guys, I think we might have

left my stomach back on Earth.

I'm starting to wish you

stayed back there with it.

[ROSHI] I'm sure they'll

have a great time.

Namek must be a

beautiful place.

Bye, Gohan... Come

back to me safely.

It'll be smooth

sailing from here...

And now that we're

on autopilot,

how about cleaning

up this mess?!

Sure, Bulma.

[GOHAN] I can't even see

the Earth anymore.

[KRILLIN] Where you

going, Bulma?

I'll be right back...

I'm just going to change.

You mean you made yourself a

space suit just for take-off?

Man, I was only

trying to make a joke.

I guess we better start

cleaning up... Ready?

Give me a minute.

I need to change first.

Yeah, that's

probably a good idea...

What was your

mom thinking?

Sometimes I think

she really is crazy.

[GOHAN] It's all right.

[GOHAN] I packed my own clothes

when my Mom wasn't looking.

[GOHAN laughing]

[KRILLIN] You really do respect

Piccolo, don't you?

Yeah... About as

much as I do my dad.

[door clacking open]

So... Did you make that

outfit yourself, too?

You look tough.

Good, but I'm trying

to look mean...

I've had just about enough

of your wisecracks, Krillin.

So from now on we're going

by a whole new set of rules.

[BULMA laughing maniacally]

Uh-oh... I don't think I

like the sound of that much.

[thinking]

Good luck, Gohan.

[NARRATOR] Everyone is

counting on the young group

of adventurers to return

safely from their mission...

[NARRATOR] But they have

a vast distance to cross

before they reach

their destination,

and many unknown dangers

to face along the way!
