Trunks[to himself, about Vegeta] Father, one day I will prove myself to you. Maybe then you'll understand. All of these dangers that you're so eager to face, you don't have to face them alone.
TrunksYou can not win Cell. I'm gonna make sure that all androids are gone for good!
Trunks[to Bulma, about the androids] Nightmares never last, Mom. One day you wake up and they're gone.
TrunksAll that training and Piccolo is the only one who came to watch us. Why didn't anyone else come?
TrunksWe might not have an audience, but let's still give a good show!
What a pleasant surprise.
You're right father. This may prove to be a bit more amusing than I had thought.
TrunksAnd now, you two are going down.
Aha ha. One thing is certain. If nothing else, I'd say this little creature is quite the comedian. Aha ha.
Hmmm. He is at that. I'll tell you what kid. Let me give you a piece of advice. He who acquires his skills quickly, is he who is the first to perish.
TrunksHeh. Thanks for the tip.
Huh? Why you!
TrunksListen up! Now I've got one for you Frieza! Know your enemy! You've already made some pretty big assumptions about me, and that's a mistake that's going to cost you dearly!
You insolent brat! You should really learn to control your tongue!
Just destroy him already. We haven't got all day!
Really father! Have some patience! I'm just trying to have a little fun, if you don't mind!
TrunksHe's right though. You really don't have all day! More like five minutes!
Oh, that's too bad! Heh heh heh heh. And here I made dinner plans!
TrunksSo I've heard. Well, sorry Frieza. But I'm canceling your date with Goku.
Huh?
What's a Goku?
Father, I know you're bored, but please try to keep up.
Hmm...
So I take it you know that worthless Saiyan?
TrunksBy reputation. But we'll meet soon.
Oh...don't be so certain. Heh.
TrunksBut I couldn't be more certain Frieza.
Ooh...
TrunksAnytime now, Goku will be coming home. And only one of us is going to be here waiting for him. Get it?
Definitely. As it so happens, I was just about to suggest that very thing myself. It's so nice that you and I can finally agree on something, don't you think?
TrunksHeh heh heh. For once you're right.
Well, then I guess all that's left is for me to decide just how I'm going to annihilate you.
TrunksEnough kidding around!
Huh?
TrunksIt's time you understood who I really am! So I'll tell you what. I'm going to let the two of you in on a little secret. You're about to find out what it's like to fight a real Super Saiyan, and I'm not talking about Goku.
What?
Grr...
TrunksHeh heh.
Heh heh heh heh. Ya crack me up kid. Ha ha ha! Aha ha ha ha ha ha! I've never met anyone who laid it on quite as thick as you! Aha ha ha ha...huh? [Trunks begins to power up]
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...huh?
No! It can't be!
What is he?
TrunksAah!
Super Saiyan? I'm impressed. To encounter a fighter of your caliber is a rare occurrence indeed. But it does present quite an opportunity. You see, I could appreciate a great talent such as yours. My eyes are not blinded by pride like my son's were. Join me and take Frieza's place at my side as the supreme ruler of the universe.
TrunksNot a chance.
Now don't be too hasty. Imagine. This and every other world would be but the merest of baubles in your collection. Playthings for your amusement. Subject to your every whim. No? Alright. But grant me this. Allow me to examine your sword. A weapon of such obvious quality practically begs to be admired. Aha ha ha ha ha. You have nothing to fear from me.
TrunksSo, you wanna see my sword huh? Here, catch. [Trunks tosses his sword to King Cold]
Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh. Yes. Yes indeed. Remarkable craftsmanship. And I have a hunch that you would not have defeated my son were it not for this sword. What do you say?
TrunksBelieve what you want to.
Ha! Heh! Alright then! I will! I say, that without this sword, you're nothing! That's what I believe! Rahh! [King Cold lunges at Trunks with the sword and Trunks grabs it] Huh!? Uh!?
TrunksSo much for your theory.
Yah!
TrunksYou should know that a weapon doesn't make the man! [Trunks holds his arm in front of King Cold's chest]
Wait you dirty little Saiyan! [Trunks blasts King Cold, shredding through him, and sending him into a mountain] Aah!
First Frieza...now him! Oh man!
[to himself] Who is this kid?
[King Cold is laying on the ground and Trunks is holding out his hand ready to blast] Wait. You can't. No. Please. I'm defenseless. Please. I'm not bad. My son was evil, but not I. I wanted nothing but peace. I meant you no harm, I swear it. [Trunks blasts King Cold to death] I'm...I'm telling the truth, NO!
Oh, hey, you've got our logo on your jacket. That's my dad's company. Are you one of our employees?
TrunksNo, not exactly. Just a fan.
Oh I see. Well, tell me your name and I'll recommend you to dad.
TrunksI uh...can't do that. I'm sorry, I know it's strange.
Oh...mystery man!
Is his shoe size a secret too?
Yeah! Why can't I have a secret name!? That's not fair! I bet you have a secret spy decoder ring too!
[noticing Trunks is staring at him again while he's wearing the pink shirt Bulma gave him] Why do you keep looking over here? Haven't you ever seen a pink shirt before? If you like it that much, you can have it.
TrunksNo, no thank you.
Then knock it off kid!
Trunks[after testing Goku by lunging at him with his sword, and Goku blocking with his finger] Man, those same moves turned Frieza into cold cuts.
Yeah, well. Your heart just wasn't in it this time.
Oh man, gosh. You defeated Frieza in a flash, and yet, from what you're saying, these androids are even stronger than you.
TrunksThey are. For sure. Hunting me down is one of their favorite hobbies, but it's two against one. There's not much I can do against them except run.
Your mother knows me? Am I going to meet her, or do I already know her now?
TrunksNow...
Oh wow! I know your mom huh!? That's bizarre! Does she live by me or something?
TrunksShe's standing right there.
Aha ha ha ha ha ha! Bulma's your mother!? Aha! ha! [Goku rolls on the ground from laughter]
TrunksHey! Why didn't you try to save them Vegeta?
Who?
TrunksWho? Bulma and her son!
Oh! Them! I have more important things to worry about than that foolish woman and her blasted child! Now out of my way!
Nobody saw him fly away, did they?
Uh...so what are you saying?
I'm saying that android is trying to escape on foot, which means he probably hasn't gotten very far.
If that's the case, then we might just have a chance to find this lab and destroy the other two androids before Gero even gets there.
Hmph. I would never do anything that cowardly!
TrunksHuh?
Only one course of action can possibly satisfy me! I will fight these androids face to face, and I'll break them with my bare hands!
[after scanning the inactive Android 16] According to this data, I am much stronger than this model is.
It makes no difference.
Hmm...18, go ahead and activate him, now.
I am your creator! You will do as I tell you to do! Stop meddling with Android 16 now! Or I will force you to stop!
Your controller is broken.
Then I will make another.
Heh... [Android 18 opens Android 16's capsule release valve]
For the last time, do not release him! [Android 17 slams his arm through Dr. Gero's back and out from his front] Ah...oh...ah...oh...
Huh?
Uh?
Uh...
Augh...
TrunksGrr...
What have you done? How dare you? Don't you know...I gave you life...and I can take it away! [Android 17 kicks Dr. Gero's head off and the decapitated head bounces and rolls on the ground] Grr...that does it! Now I am mad! [Android 17 crushes what remained of Dr. Gero's head]
Heh heh heh heh heh...
Did you see that? He squashed 'im like a bug! [Android 17 moves his finger, calling for Krillin]
Ahem.
Vegeta, I think he wants to talk to you.
You with the shiny head, come here.
You talkin' ta me?
Uhuh.
Yah! No way! Not me!
Heh heh heh heh.
Don't be a coward. Go on. Fight him.
All by myself? Come on guys, we're in this together. I'd like to keep my head on my shoulders.
Don't worry about it. I've got you covered Krillin.
[Krillin steps forward with fear and Android 17 steps up] Uh!?
Heh heh heh heh... [Android 17 walks away and Krillin sighs with relief]
It looks like he took pity on you, loser. That's too bad. You're so pathetic! Now he knows you're scared! Next time, he won't show you any mercy at all!
What?
