Original subtitles

[MAN] Please, stay away from us. We didn't do anything!

[WARRIOR 1] We never said you did.

[slashing, screaming]

[laughing]

[GARLIC JR.] Ah, in the darkness they have taken wing,

never to return again...

[thunder cracks]

[thunder cracks]

[GARLIC JR.] Maybe these poor fools know how I felt now.

When I was cast off against my will into

a place from which there was no escape.

[GARLIC JR.] Into the darkness. Alone, in a frozen hell

without any light for years.

So many years...

Well I've come back to share.

To share the pain and the horror that I felt

with every living thing on Earth.

After ten years of exile in the Dead Zone,

I, Garlic Jr., have returned to Earth

to hatch a sinister plan of

destruction and revenge.

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

[GOHAN laughs]

[GOHAN] Come on! Catch me if you can!

[GOHAN laughs]

[GOHAN] C'mon, faster!

[SABERTOOTH TIGER yells]

[GOHAN grunts]

Wow.

[KRILLIN] Hey, yo.

Hey, Krillin.

Wow. Is that really you under there?

Yeah, sweetheart. See?

That's the worst Humphrey Bogart imitation

I've ever heard.

So whatcha been doing, partner?!

Ehh, not much.

[KRILLIN screams]

[GOHAN] It looks like we'll be having fish for a while.

Hey, do you want to help me gut and clean 'em?

Uh, no thanks.

Hey, come on.

Hey!

[GOHAN] Let's go for a swim, then.

The water is ice-cold. It feels really incredible.

No, please, no.

Huh?

Sorry. It's the threads, bro.

Ahh. Well, no big deal. Take 'em off.

[KRILLIN] Uh, well, uhh...

Huh?

Oh, wow. Check out that car!

Is it yours?! For real?!

Yep. Well, uh, sort of.

Aw, what the heck.

It's been so long.

One little dip won't hurt anything.

Ha-ha!

Last one in is a rotten egg.

[WOMAN] Krillin! Hey!

What are you doing?!

Are you coming, or what?

Yeah, sure! One sec!

Who is she? What's up?

Hmph!

[KRILLIN] She's my, uh, well, she's uh...

[WOMAN] Krillin. You didn't forget about me, did you?

Who me?

Yeah, you. Who's that?

Oh, this is my martial arts partner, Gohan.

Gohan this is my "friend", Maron.

Hi.

Is he from outer-space?

No, Maron, this isn't the one.

It's his dad, remember?

Oh, yeah, I forgot.

Well, he sure is cute, though. Did you know that?

Well, sort of.

[MARON giggles]

[MARON] Modest, huh? And look at this

beautiful black hair.

I know a lot of girls that would kill

to have hair like this.

[MARON] Do you always hang out in your underwear?

[MARON giggles]

How cute.

[KRILLIN yells]

Hey, easy! What's the deal?!

What's the deal with you?

You're not jealous, are you?

I thought he was your friend.

[KRILLIN stammers]

Yeah, well, he is.

You're so silly. Here.

[KRILLIN chuckles]

[MARON giggles]

Oh. Uh... Hah...

Hey, Gohan, guess what?

What?

There's a party, bro.

Later on this afternoon at Master Roshi's place.

Think you can make it?

Yeah, sure.

Well, that is, if my mom'll let me go.

Oh, yeah. She's too darn strict

with all of that studying.

[GOHAN groans]

Oh, well. Maybe a miracle will happen

and she'll say yes.

Stranger things have happened, you know.

Yeah...

Ciao!

Laters.

[thinking] I wonder if she's...?

Bye!

[MARON giggles]

Yeah, she is! She's Krillin's girlfriend!

He did it!

After all these years,

he finally found a girlfriend.

Boy, is Dad gonna be surprised when he gets back.

[blows landing, PICCOLO grunts]

[grunting continues]

[blows landing]

[PICCOLO yells]

[KAMI] Thank goodness. I was beginning to think

I needed glasses.

What? You. And what are you doing here?

Thanks. Nice welcome. Same Piccolo.

You're still rude, arrogant,

and completely lacking in social graces.

But this is just the exterior;

the hard, protective, outer-shell.

Inside, you've changed a great deal,

which is why I have come here to talk to you.

I was hoping that you would ascend to the throne

and take over my position as guardian of the Earth.

What...?

[PICCOLO yells]

I'm not interested in your stinking job.

But... I have been a little worried about you.

Huh?

[PICCOLO] I've seen some disturbing

images in my meditation lately, and, I'm not sure,

but I think they're glimpses of the future.

There might be some trouble brewing

so... just be careful, that's all.

Piccolo...

[MR. POPO hums]

Huh?

Oh no...

[laughing]

[WARRIOR 2] Yoo-hoo.

[laughing]

[laughing]

[grunting]

[GARLIC JR.] Enough.

I said enough!

[MR. POPO gasps]

It's you. Garlic Jr.!

Very observant, Mr. Popo.

[MR. POPO] What do you want?

[GARLIC JR. snickers]

[snickering continues]

Yes, sure, I remember it all clearly now.

Why you came before.

Now, Dragon! Arise!

[MR. POPO] You were going to use

the legion of dark spirits upon the Earth.

So first, you stole the Dragon Balls

and used them to wish for immortality.

[GARLIC JR. chuckles]

Huh...?

[GARLIC JR. screams]

[MR. POPO] Kami tried to stop you, but he's getting old

and he's not as spry as he used to be.

[MR. POPO] Try as he might, he wasn't able to stop you,

and you finally overpowered him.

[KAMI yells]

[GARLIC JR. shouts]

[KAMI grunts]

[MR. POPO] It was an easy victory for you,

but when Goku and Piccolo intervened,

you were forced to transform

and use your maximum power

to finally overcome them.

[MR. POPO] But there was one thing you hadn't counted on:

Goku's son.

[GOHAN growls]

[GOHAN] Don't you hurt my Daddy! Leave him alone!

[MR. POPO] Even though he was just a boy,

he had phenomenal powers.

[GARLIC JR. growls]

You pest! How are you doing this?!

[GOHAN growls]

[GARLIC JR. shouts]

[GOHAN grunts]

Into the void you go!

[GARLIC JR. growls]

[MR. POPO] He didn't care about himself,

it was his love for his father

that awakened his sleeping powers.

He couldn't stand to see his father

sucked into the horrible Dead Zone Vortex

that you created.

[GOHAN growls]

[MR. POPO] So he exploded with rage

and his fantastic power bounced

you into that horrible prison

that you intended for others.

We thought you were gone forever.

[GARLIC JR. yells]

[GARLIC JR.] Don't look so disappointed, Mr. Popo.

Kami's getting close to retirement.

He's going to need a competent successor.

Whatd'ya think, Mr. Popo?

Do I fit the bill?

Am I not the ideal candidate to be

the next guardian of the Earth?

Please. Well? Tell me, Mr. Pop.

You can be honest. Speak your mind.

Well, what's the matter?!

Tongue tied?! Rogue. You don't think I'd be

good for the job, do you?!

[WARRIORS laugh]

[MR. POPO] Magic Carpet!

[GARLIC JR.] Get him!

--Right, Boss! --Right, Boss!

[WARRIOR 3 yells]

[MR. POPO gasps]

I... can't budge...

[WARRIORS laugh]

[GARLIC JR.] Yes, this is a very special net.

It paralyzes those captured in it.

Ease up, boys.

[GARLIC JR.] Now, Popo. Where is Kami?

[MR. POPO] I don't know.

[GARLIC JR.] You're lying!

No! Mr. Popo does not lie!

For some reason I believe you.

Yes, that's because I don't lie!

Bah. You disgust me!

[GARLIC JR. growls]

[MR. POPO gasps]

Pint-sized Popo. Don't bother trying to escape.

That tiny, little energy field is impregnable.

[GARLIC JR.] Ahh, there you are.

You look so scared.

Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you yet, Mr. Popo.

All in due time. All in due time!

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

What a day. This is great!

All of us here together!

Really. Hey, speaking of together,

are you guys officially dating?

Uh-huh! Well, sort of. We're not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Huh? Oh, so we're still free to date other people?

Well, then, what d'ya say we go out?

Uh? Yeah. Yeah, sure. Why not?

[YAMCHA yells]

Say what?!

My goodness!

Come on, Bulma.

We were joking. Right? Tell her, Maron.

No, I'm serious.

Oh, no..

[BULMA] Enough kidding around!

Maron you haven't said much about Krillin.

What's makes him so special to you?

Gosh, that's a good one...

Uhh...

Well, he's bald!

♪ Oh. Love is in the air. ♪

♪ And it's gonna crash and burn. ♪

♪ Yeah, yeah. ♪

Bald is beautiful.

[ROSHI] Hmm...

Something needs to be done about this...

[ROSHI chuckles]

--[BULMA laughs] --[ROSHI] Krillin!

We need to talk, son.

Why so serious? What's the deal?

[ROSHI] Krillin, I'm your Master and teacher

and you know full well that you're not allowed

to have a girlfriend unless I approve of her first.

Yeah, but it all happened so fast.

Forget about that stupid code!

Master. Come on! Cut him some slack!

Sorry, I can't. I have to do what's best for Krillin!

Sure, no prob. So I have to pass some sort of test, huh?

I'm positive that I can win your approval, sir!

Good. I'm glad. Maybe you can.

[ROSHI coughs]

And here's what I want you to do...

What is it?

Spill it.

Yeah, tell me!

Just give me a little kiss, baby!

Right here! Right on the kisser!

[ROSHI squeals]

You dirty old man!

Go away.

Joke. I'm... joking!

[laughing]

[GOHAN] Please, Mom?

[CHICHI] No, Gohan. I already told you. No.

But why...?

[CHICHI] Because you need to study, that's why.

Mmm, that's not bad...

Mom, just this once.

Gohan, you know how important your studies are.

You don't want to fail and blow your chances

of getting into college someday, do you?

No...

Then be a good boy and do as I say.

Now this conversation is over.

[GOHAN groans]

Poor boy. It's so hard.

Hm? What's this? What happened here?!

[KAMI] Come out, whoever you are! I see you...

[GARLIC JR. chuckles]

[KAMI] What?! Garlic, Jr.! Impossible!

[GARLIC JR.] Don't have a heart attack, old man.

I don't want you to die before I have

the pleasure of killing you!

[KAMI] You're even more arrogant than before.

Only a brat like you would destroy

a beautiful sanctuary like this!

[GARLIC JR.] What business is it of yours, Kami?

This is my sanctuary now.

[KAMI] Mr. Popo. Can you hear me. Mr. Popo?

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

This what you want?

[MR. POPO] Sorry, Kami!

[GARLIC JR.] As new guardian of the Earth,

the first change I'm making is to hire a groundskeeper

who's actually tall enough to water the plants.

Why, you fiend! You'll never get away with this!

Your dark plans have no firm foundation to stand on!

They're going to crumble. You can't succeed!

Yes I can.

You were lucky last time. If it wasn't for that kid,

I'd be sitting on your throne already.

In your dreams. I'll die before I let that happen!

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

Oh my, I couldn't have said it any better myself.

I'm taking over, and you are going to die!

[GARLIC JR. yells]

[KAMI thinking] He's too fast to detect!

[KAMI shouts]

[blows landing, KAMI grunts]

[KAMI yells]

--[WARRIORS yell] --[KAMI] What the...?

[WARRIORS laugh]

Nice. Good work.

We'll keep him alive for the time being.

That way we can use the Dragon Balls.

What? Oh, no!

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

You are a sight to behold.

You have no idea how much I'm loving this, old man.

Fool! You won't succeed!

My, my, those are awfully big words

from such a tiny little man. You're too much.

Don't you get it, you feeble, joke of a guardian?

Your time has come.

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

[CHICHI hums]

Gosh, I'm sorry, Mom. Man, I'm bad.

Thanks. Being bad's not easy.

Well, let's blaze. What d'ya say?

[growls]

Shh.

[GOHAN laughs]

Whoa. Look at that sunset, Icarus!

[door creaks open]

[GARLIC JR.] Now where would that green goody-two-shoes

hide my father's Black Water Mist?

Hmm? Wouldn't you know it.

That dodo left it right here in the open.

Ah, yes, this is it, all right.

With this, we don't need an army. We'll make one.

What d'ya mean, Boss?

[GARLIC JR. grunts]

[GARLIC JR.] When people breath this mist,

any evil tendencies that they're resisting

take control of their character.

They become mad with desire for wealth and material pleasure

to the point of wanting to kill each other for it.

You see, boys, our army of darkness

has always been here.

We just have to wake it up.

You're a genius, Lord Garlic. What a brilliant plan.

Yeah, you've really outdone yourself this time, Boss.

Why, thank you.

[GARLIC JR. laughs]

[NARRATOR] With Kami and Mr. Popo powerless to stop him,

Garlic Jr. has released the Black Water Mist

onto the Earth.

As Gohan flies unsuspectingly to meet his friends,

the evil mist descends.

What darkness does it portend?
