Summary

The episode begins with Super Buu giving the newly restored Goku, to the count of 5 to find someone to fuse with (Super Buu has already absorbed Gohan, so he is incredibly powerful.) Goku has 2 choices Dende, but Goku realizes that that would not be a good idea, because the Earth still needs the Dragon Balls, and Dende isn't a strong fighter. The other choice is Hercule, Goku imagines the fusion with him and just as it appears he is going to throw one of the fusion earrings to Hercule, he senses someones ki...that of the saiyan prince, Vegeta. Goku uses his Instant Transmission to go to Vegeta and tries to talk him into fusing, Vegeta refuses saying that Goku has once again caused him to lose his pride by holding back SS3 in their battle when Vegeta was Majin Vegeta. Goku tries to talk him in to fusion for a little while, then Super Buu shows up and beats up both Goku and Vegeta, Vegeta is still too proud to accept that he needs Goku's help, then Goku gives a great speech about how Vegeta always says he is a Saiyan Prince and he and Kakarot are the last survivors of a warrior race. In the speech he says that the Saiyans are gone and that they have a chance to save another planet from the same fate as their home planet. He then tells Vegeta that Bulma was killed by Super Buu, and only then does Vegeta agree to the fusion. And just as Super Buu is getting ready for another attack, the two fuse. At the end of the episode we get a look at a new fusion character Vegito.

Battles

Goku & Vegeta vs. Gohan Absorbed Buu

"Buu gives Goku some time to find someone to fuse with. He considers Dende and Hercule, but neither of them would be any help. He suddenly senses that Vegeta has returned, and uses Instant Transmission to find him. Dende then heals Tien. After he finds him, Goku tries to convince Vegeta to fuse with him, but Vegeta is angry because he knows Goku was holding back his Super Saiyan 3 transformation when they fought. They each try to take on Buu, but are clearly outclassed. Goku tells Vegeta that Buu absorbed Trunks and killed Bulma and asks him to put their differences aside to save their race. Vegeta finally agrees, and only when he puts the earring on does Goku mention that the fusion is permanent. The two last surviving Saiyans fused successfully and a new warrior is born." cannot be used as a page name in this wiki.
