[NARRATOR] Last time on Dragon Ball Z,

Cell was in the final stages of his evolution

to become the Ultimate Android!

It looked like all our heroes could do was stand back

and watch in terror as he morphed into the most powerful

machine in the universe!

With haunting visions of the future plaguing his mind,

Trunks tried desperately to stop the transformation!

[TRUNKS yells]

[TRUNKS grunts]

[grunting continues]

[CELL roars]

[TRUNKS yells]

[NARRATOR] But it was too late.

[NARRATOR] Nothing could stop Cell from changing.

[NARRATOR] And so, with one Earth-shaking blast,

it finally happened.

[NARRATOR] Cell was complete.

Vegeta... it's your fault!

[NARRATOR] While the other fighters trembled,

Vegeta could only smile at this latest development.

After all, he's the one who let it happen.

[VEGETA] I don't have anything to worry about!

[NARRATOR} But seeing the horrible monster who

had absorbed Android 18 was too much for Krillin.

And against all odds, the heartbroken hero

lashed out at Cell with blow after angry blow.

Chew on this!

Destructo Disc!

[NARRATOR} But as much as Krillin wanted Cell to go down,

the mighty android proved to be invincible

to Krillin's every attempt.

[KRILLIN whimpers]

Krillin get out of there!

[NARRATOR] And with one dynamic kick,

it appears that Cell has added Krillin

to the long list of lives he has destroyed.

[NARRATOR] Can anyone stop this heartless villain?

Find out today!

No! Krillin, no!

[KRILLIN whimpers]

[coughing]

[TRUNKS growls]

[CELL chuckles]

D-Did someone get the number of that bus?

I... I've never felt anything so painful in my life...

It's as if all my bones are totally crushed!

[KRILLIN] But don't worry about me, no sir. I'll be just fine.

[KRILLIN chuckles weakly]

I hope I'm not rude, but I'm gonna take a little nap...

Just hold on!

[CELL chuckles softly]

Hah! He should feel lucky.

He's the first one to be touched by my perfect body.

[TRUNKS] Krillin! No! You've got to hang in there!

I won't let it end like this!

I need you to try to swallow this!

Everything will be alright. It's a Senzu bean.

[VEGETA chuckles]

[VEGETA] Don't tell me you're satisfied

swatting flies like him.

Guess a guy like you needs any victory he can get.

[VEGETA] From the way you've been carrying on,

I was expecting a true challenge.

If that's your idea of perfect, I might as well go home.

I'm sorry to hear that. I was hoping you'd stay.

Destroying you would be a decent warm-up.

Alright. But this time, don't whine when I beat you.

I won't.

[CELL chuckles]

[KRILLIN gasps]

[TRUNKS sighs]

[TRUNKS] There you go, easy now.

[KRILLIN groans]

[TRUNKS] Welcome back, Krillin!

I almost thought you were too far gone to make it!

What's the matter?

Oh no! Vegeta's about to bite it!

[TRUNKS gasps]

[KRILLIN] I might not be as strong as a Super Saiyan...

But there's one thing I know first hand...

And that is, how incredibly powerful Cell has become!

Trust me!

He's a lot stronger than he's letting on!

I felt it, Trunks.

It was only for a second,

but when he kicked me I could sense his true power!

[CELL chuckles]

[VEGETA chuckles]

[VEGETA laughs]

Cell's power went up dramatically...

But by my calculations, Vegeta still holds the advantage.

[KRILLIN] No, you can't let the energy you detect

from Cell fool you. It's all just a front.

His real power is a whole lot bigger.

He's hiding it, like you.

You mean you know?

[VEGETA yells]

[grunting]

Well, it's nice to see you've become a little stronger.

Maybe this time I'll actually break a sweat!

Knowing Vegeta,

he's probably too caught up in himself to notice.

But yeah, I can sense that you're holding back.

You've got a lot more power in you than you're making public

don't you?

Well, if you have all that strength,

why haven't you stopped Cell yet?!

Tell me!

[VEGETA growls]

Come on! You're going to have to try harder if you want to live.

[CELL chuckles]

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA thinking] He's gotten so fast!

[CELL chuckles]

[CELL yells]

[VEGETA growls]

My father, has gone beyond the powers of a Super Saiyan.

[CELL chuckles]

So, I see you were holding out on me after all.

Of course, compared to me, you're still an inferior cretin.

You were a fool to spend all that time

absorbing the androids.

If you really wanted power, you should've gone after a Saiyan!

Hah! Like you, right?

Yes, but of course.

[CELL chuckles]

[TRUNKS] Near the end of our training,

my father reached a plateau and I surpassed him.

But I can't let my father know, because he'll hate me for it!

I've worked so hard to gain his approval,

and I'm still not there yet.

I know he'll accept me once he sees how strong I am.

But not now. I have to wait until he's ready.

[KRILLIN] But, Trunks...

He should have beaten Cell back there

when he still had the chance!

Vegeta's strength is hard to believe.

He'd dead even with Cell in his final stage.

[PICCOLO] It won't last.

Huh...?

He isn't thinking. Vegeta has let his anger take control

and it's making his fighting technique sloppy.

That's no way to fight.

Would you two stop whispering to each other for once,

and tell me what's going on down there?!

This isn't a boys only club, you know!

[GOHAN yells]

[GOKU] That's it, Gohan! Keep going!

Okay, okay! Now you're really starting

to get control of your energy! That's good!

[yelling, grunting]

[GOKU] Now, try to push it forward!

[BOTH grunting]

[GOKU] Excellent!

[GOHAN grunting]

[GOKU] You're actually starting to scare me!

[BOTH grunting]

[CELL chuckles]

[VEGETA] Hmm...

Huh?!

You coward...

[VEGETA yells]

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA shouts]

[shouting continues]

Here I come!

[VEGETA gasps]

[CELL chuckles]

[CELL] You impress me, Vegeta.

That was quite a little show.

[VEGETA growls]

[CELL chuckles]

[VEGETA growls]

[CELL] Hmm...

[VEGETA] How dare you play me for a fool?!

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA yelling]

[yelling continues]

What happened?

I-I get the feeling that Vegeta's starting to lose it!

I never guessed 18 would give Cell this much power.

Now we are all doomed.

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA yells]

[VEGETA growls]

[VEGETA growls]

How could Dr. Gero have created such a monster?

[VEGETA] Huh--?!

[VEGETA growls]

I'll squash you!

[VEGETA snarls]

[VEGETA growls]

Father...

Are there any limits to his power?

That's all I can stand!

You're not taking this seriously!

But I told you, Vegeta, I'm just warming up.

Huh?

Cell's gotten to him! He's blinded by anger!

[CELL chuckles]

"Just warming up"?!

I think you're too afraid to fight me, Cell!

Oh, sure, you might have a brand new body, but inside,

you haven't changed one little bit!

You're still the same as you were...

a sniveling, spineless coward!

If you're as powerful as you say you are,

then let's see what you're made of!

With pleasure.

I will not tolerate this childish little game!

Yeah! He got 'em!

[VEGETA chuckles]

[VEGETA gasps]

No...

[CELL chuckles]

[CELL chuckles]

"Super Vegeta!"

[CELL chuckles]

[KRILLIN] Did you see that?

Vegeta gave him a boot to the head

and it didn't even phase him!

I told you! Cell's turned into some kinda...

some kinda mechanical freak!

Trunks you've gotta unleash your power!

It's the only way to beat him!

I can't! With my father's pride as strong as it is

he would never let anyone interfere, especially not me!

He'd rather lose than accept someone's help.

That's ridiculous!

[CELL chuckles]

That's it. Vegeta's finished.

[NARRATOR] As Cell closes in,

could this really be the end of Vegeta?

Or will Trunks go against his father's wishes

to save his life?

The monster continues his warpath,

next time on Dragon Ball Z!
