[edit] Summary

Goku and Krillin start their battle with the Pirate Robot, as General Blue watches from the hallway. Goku and Krillin just throw normal punches and kicks, until Krillin gets punched in the face. Krillin watches with Bulma, while Goku fights alone. Goku throws a lot of headbutts at the Pirate Robot's chin. The Pirate Robot then shoots out bullets. Goku retreats to higher grounds. The Pirate Robot glides on the water to shoot Goku. Goku manages to make the robot crash into walls, but still can't win. Krillin and Bulma find a machine that shoots out missiles. They shoot one at the Pirate Robot, but instead it hits Goku. The missile makes the ceiling fall on Goku which makes the floor he was on break. The Pirate Robot decides to chase Bulma and Krillin and none of the other missiles hit it.

While they run, General Blue stays in the hallway. The robot shoots bullets, as they go up the stairs. Bulma and Krillin find a hallway and go in a room. Meanwhile, Goku gets up, as General Blue stays and is amazed. In the room, there is a computer room, The Pirate Robot finds them and so does Goku (he uses the Power Pole to get to the window). Goku uses his Power Pole to bring Krillin and Bulma down. While they run away, the robot goes down the stairs. When the Pirate Robot gets down the stairs, Goku does an aerial attack, killing it. Krillin and Bulma run past the door General Blue is behind. General Blue follows them and makes a fake arrow, so Goku will go the wrong way. Goku runs there and makes the wrong turn. Krillin and Bulma find a wail that they go in. General Blue follows, albeit reluctantly, as he doesn't want to get wet due to not having packed his bikini trunks in his field kit and having to take off his uniform, as Goku continues going the wrong way.

[edit] Trivia

• There's a minor inconsistency between this episode and the last episode. Bulma is shown to be wearing red panties or bikini briefs while swimming through the underwater cavern, but in the previous episode, she was wearing white panties with strawberries on them, much to Krillin's amusement.
