Summary[edit]
Krillin and
Gohan discover that although the
Namekian Dragon Balls can grant three wishes, they can resurrect only one person per wish, unlike the
Earth's Dragon Balls. After consulting with their dead friends via
King Kai's telepathic abilities, they use the first wish

to revive
Piccolo, which also brings
Kami and the Earth's Dragon Balls back. They then use the second wish to teleport Piccolo to
Namek so he can assist them (despite King Kai's orders not to). However, this only brought him to a random spot on the planet, far away from the others.
Vegeta eventually awakens and learns he's been duped. He learns that there's one wish left and forces Dende to make the wish to become immortal. Krillin reluctantly decides to go with it, but before the wish can be made, the
Grand Elder passes away and the Namekian Dragon Balls become useless. Just as Vegeta thinks his luck couldn't get any worse,
Frieza finally arrives, and is not happy at all that his own plans for immortality have been thwarted. Furious, he vows to make them all suffer.
- Although Vegeta has an older model of armor, one scene depicts him in his previous, dual shoulder guard, armor.
