DB Episode 64

Summary

Goku and Upa have dinner and then go to bed. Upa is confused about why Goku is not worried about Tao drinking the Sacred Water. Meanwhile, Bulma's Dragon Radar is being scrambled by the Red Ribbon Army, but so is the Army's radar.

As Tao reaches the top of the tower, Karin draws some water from a barrel, picks his nose and drops the booger in the cup, and spits in the cup a few times before handing it to Tao. Before Tao drinks, he fires his Dodon Ray at a pillar, which has absolutely no effect. He drinks the cup of water, and fires at the pillar again. This time, it cracks, but Tao is not satisfied. He is confident that Korin has duped him, so he decides to drop a barrel of water on Upa, who is waiting at the tower base. Korin first tries to reason with Tao and tell him the truth, that even Goku just drank tap water, but Tao does not believe him. Finally, Korin destroys the pillar himself, claiming that it just took a while for Tao's ray to take full effect. He lends Tao a black nimbus to ride down with, so that he doesn't gain extra strength from his climb down the tower, and slips the cloud out from under him about halfway down, causing Tao to fall the rest of the way.

Tao, thinking himself much stronger, decides to fight Goku. He appears to have the upper hand at first, but then Goku stops toying with Tao and nearly kills him. Tao tries to beg for mercy, but just as Goku drops his guard, he throws a frag grenade at him. Goku, however, kicks it back at Tao, and the grenade explodes, killing him.

Goku then sets off for the Red Ribbon Army stronghold, to recover the Dragon Balls and bring Bora back to life.
