Dragon Ball Z · Season 1
What the heck are you smilin' about? You do understand that I'm about to kill you, don't you?
Don't be so sure.
Uh...?
You won't even lay a hand on me.
Uh...ha ha ha ha ha. Oh boy, that's a good one. He says I won't even lay a hand on 'im, guess I'll have to pound 'im with my feet instead.
[to Goku] My name is Recoome, it rhymes with doom, and you'll be hurting all too soon. I really am a man of many many talents.
Oy, did you hear that Burter? This guy gets in one lucky punch and he thinks he can take on the Ginyu Force.
Yeah, Jeice. I think he must've hit himself in the head pretty hard when he landed here. He got Recoome by surprise, that's all. It doesn't make him tough, just lucky, right?
Right. I'm surprised he got a punch in at all. This guy's power level is way too pathetic to be a challenge.
Now say hello to the Ginyu Force! Jeice!
I am your worst nightmare! Prepare yourself for...Burter!
You wanna dance, or fight?
[to a group of soldiers] Ya look like a bunch o' hood ornaments. The purpose of striking a pose is not to become like a wallpaper. That's why we chant loudly when we pose, to draw attention to our magnificence. I know. I'll just have to raise the stakes a little bit. The best poser gets a candy!
[to a soldier] Idiot! You touched a dragonball! Didn't I specifically say before starting this tryout not to touch any of the dragonballs? Well, didn't I? [Captain Ginyu grabs the soldier]
Yes... [fear stricken]
And did you?
Oh...uh...yes.
Okay. [Captain Ginyu throws the soldier into the sky] Congratulations, gentlemen. You've managed to survive the first cut! But...I'm afraid tryouts are over. You're all tough guys, that's true. But you lack the one thing that sets all Ginyus apart...ha ha ha ha ha ha...style. Oh...oh...and gentlemen, one more thing. Run for your lives.
[speaking through scouter] Jeice. Come in. Jeice. Do you hear me?
[speaking through scouter] Yeah, Burter. I copy you.
I've got a new plan. Use the fire Crusher Ball, right, when you fire it, I'm sure he'll jump out of the way to evade it.
That's your plan?
I wasn't through. When he jumps, I'll sneak in and crush him from behind. He might be fast, but I'm the fastest warrior in the universe.
Got ya mate. This is what you get for messin' with the Ginyu! Hiya! Crusher Ball!
Dodge you punk! Jump now, what are you doing? [Goku smacks the Crusher Ball into another direction]
He deflected it!
Damn you! Uh...oh...huh...
Uh...huh...
Hey, where did he go? Huh...
Look out behind you!
Huh!
Huh! Huh....
Huh...huh...uh...huh...be merciful...
Hi.
How did you get behind me? No one's that fast! Grrr...
Well, apparently...I am.
Grrr...
Who are you?
My name is Goku and I'm a Saiyan, from Earth.
Grrr...liar! I've defeated hundreds of Saiyans and none of them were faster than me!
It must be my diet. I eat really wholesome foods.
Your diet? Your diet huh? Well, I'm about to make my fist part of your diet! Oh, I see, playing it cool, are ya!? Well, you'll die even faster!
[to Jeice] Listen, it's not too late for you to leave this planet, your choice, but if I were you, I'd get out of here.
Don't be a fool Kakarot! He's destroyed more men than you can count!
Don't you remember Vegeta? We let you go on Earth. Don't you think they deserve the same chance?
Man oh man! Burter! This is totally insane! I don't know who this guy is...or where he came from, but he's good. Jeez, I've never seen anything like it. Ahh...we never even touched him...now that's one bad dude. I'm bad...but man, I ain't that bad! Sometimes you gotta know when to go, go, go! [Jeice dashes away]
[after Vegeta steps on Burter's neck, killing him] Hey, stop. Vegeta, that's enough! What're you doing?
Ha ha ha ha ha. [Vegeta unleashes a blast at Recoome's fallen body, killing him as well]
What's your deal? You know how to receive mercy but you can't give it. Too bad. I was hoping you might've changed.
[Vegeta spits on the ground] Oh, they don't deserve any favors. They're scum, Kakarot! Believe me! Would they have taken mercy on your son and your friend? If you'd arrived ten minutes later, they'd be gone right now. You're too soft to be a Saiyan! That freak you let go could cost you your life!
No way! Not him.
He doesn't have to be stronger than you to beat you. He could take your kid hostage and make you walk right into their hands like a lamb. These people are ruthless savages Kakarot. They're warriors. And they'll do whatever it takes to win the game. And here you are, Mr. Nice Guy. They're going to chew you up and spit you out with that attitude!
We'll see. I don't think having a little compassion is a disadvantage.
You poor fool. A fight with Frieza is a fight to the end. And it will be your end. You're nothing compared to Frieza, Kakarot.
Uh...'scuse me, I'd hate to interrupt but who's gonna beat who here? You saw how Goku handled those guys earlier. He was in a league of his own. They couldn't even touch him. And this guy is supposed to beat 'im? Not likely.
Yeah!
Kakarot's strong. But he's not strong enough.
Oh....
And besides, Frieza's been after the dragonballs, and if I know him, he's probably already made his wish by now...which means you won't be dealing with an all-powerful maniac, you'll be dealing with immortal!
Imagine. Working for the most powerful man in the universe. How's that for a 401K?
This is just too convenient! Kakarot and Ginyu are back there clobbering each other to death while the runts are up ahead finding the dragonballs for me. It's almost too good to be true. Ha ha ha ha ha ha! I'll just wait until those idiot Earthlings find out what the password is, then I'll step in and make my wish instead. You know, if I've learned anything at all from this silly ordeal it's that I am a freaking genius.
That's right. As a matter of fact, I too share the coveted ability to raise my fighting power at will, you know!
Huh?
That a boy, Captain! He looks worried now! You got this bloke right where you want 'im. [to himself] Heh! I should've known that the Captain would take care of business. It looks like I'll be gettin' my bonus in two weeks paid vacation after all.
[to her computer diary] Just a reminder to kill Gohan and Krillin when I see them and to kick Goku in the shin. I guess that's it.
