27: A New Goal... Namek

This episode starts out when Goku, Gohan, Krillin, and Yajarobi get on Bulma's air-boat. (I think they cut out a part right there). Anyway, everybody starts to think of their friends in the next dimension, and thanks Gohan for saving their lives. Then they talk about how Vegita and Nappa knew about the dragon balls and about Piccolo's origin. When Kami and Piccolo died, the drgonn balls also disappeared. Goku talks to King Kai telepathically. And everybody hears King Kai as well. King Kai says that there are also dragon balls on Namek tells them where Namek is. Now the only problem is how to get there. Krillin gave Bulma the remote that controlled Nappa's Saiyan space pod. Everybody went to the hospital where Goku, Gohan, & Krillin were healing. Bulma took the remote and pressed a few buttons and accidentally blew up the space pod. All hope was lost when Mr. Popo came to their aid by brining Bulma to a space-ship that Kame was brought from when he was a child. They opened the space-ship by saying "Piccolo." And using some of the Namek language Mr. Popo learned from Kame they launched into outer space.

28: Journey to Namek

Launched into space, Bulma and Mr. Popo arrive at Jupiter. Back on earth, the special forces team talk about launching to Namek. Bulma asks Krillin to go with her to Namek. Everybody is surprised when Gohan says he wants to go to Namek as well. Mr. Popo teaches Bulma Namek language and Bulma and Krillin wait for Gohan. Gohan, who has been "prettied up" by his mother, gets to the launch area, and the trio launch into space. On the space-ship Bulma goes to sleep and Gohan changes into a new outfit. He looks like Piccolo except without the turban and the cape. Gohan and Krillin train telepathically and then the show cuts off to Vegita, in his pod, saying "My wounds will soon be healed, with the blood of revenge." Meanwhile, the trio are about to crash into a mirror reflection of their ship! The reflection was an illusion, however, and the little ship with are three friends are pulled into a very large ship. The trio leave their tiny ship to explore, but are suckered into a trap! They are surrounded by a bunch of guys aiming guns at them.

29: Friends or Foes?

Gohan and Krillin beg for mercy until the strange people begin to fire at them. Suddenly, meteors start to fly all around the huge ship. The ship suffers damages, and some of the strange people are about to get crushed by a big panel, but and Gohan and Krillin come to the rescue. Bulma goes to the control deck and steers the ship out of the meteor shower, and Gohan and Krillin help put out a fire. The strange people then figure out that Gohan, Krillin, and Bulma are friendly, and mean them no harm. The strangers talk of their old home planet and how it was destroyed by a new evil character in the DBZ world; Freeza. The the trio leave the huge ship happily. Meanwhile, the bruised Vegita lands on a planet to get some treatment with some of his comrades. The trio finally land on Namek. After a freak fall they awake and meet two Namek's: Saskro and Grati. They go off to find the dragonballs. They find one in a river, and find one in an ancient temple.

30. Hunt for a Dragonball

The trio, with their new friend Saskro, go off to find more dragonballs. The next three dragonballs are not so easy to find. A dinosaur takes one of the dragon balls and walks off. The four friends follow the dino that had the dragon ball. The dino was nothing but bones; he was burned by an acid lake. Gohan volunteers to wear a special suit to retrieve the Dragonball. A safety rope was attached and Gohan dives in. The acid eats through the rope Gohan's suit begins to burn. Once Gohan gets the dragonball he fired a "Ka Me Ha Me Ha!" and is launched towards the surface . The next dragonball is found inside a TWISTER! Gohan jumps inside the tornado, retrieves the dragonball and fires a Ka Me Ha Me Ha toward the center which destroyed the tornado. Back on earth, Goku escapes from the hospital. Back on Namek, the next dragonball is part of an earring of a evil giant. The group gets the dragonball and escapes from the giant by flying away on a model plane. On the mysterious planet, Vegita is rejuvenated, and on Earth Goku is training again.

On Namek, the trio try to get away from a spiked snow ball. They escape and walk toward the area that the dinosaur was killed. What happened to it? Gohan is grabbed by an invisible force. Saskro and Grati appear, show their real form, and tell the trio they weren't on Namek. Saskro and Grati, now in theri true form, tell the trio that they had been stranded on this strange planet long ago, and that all the adventures and Dragon Balls were illusions. Sasko and Grati are telepathic, and created the illusion so they could steal the trio's ship and fly away. On earth, Chichi and Master Roishi find Goku and bring him back to the hospital. On the unknown planet, Vegita learns that Freeza is on Namek and he goes to get the dragon balls before Freeza does. What was supposedly planet Namek the trio learns of Saskro and Grati. If you remember two episodes back the land was all green when they landed, where is it.

32: Touchdown on Namek

Gohan and Krillin are grabbed by huge squids while Bulma learns how the strange creatures knew about their mission. Saskro and Grati try to open the Namik ship, but don't know the password. Gohan and Krillin get pulled down into the lake and launch fireballs to get rid of the squids. They go to help Bulma protect their ship from Saskro and Grati. The trio launch into the sky, leaving the evil Saskro and Grati behind. On Earth, when Chichi isn't looking, Goku tries to escape again, but the doctor and nurse catch him. The finally reach the real Namik, and land. When they do, Krillin and Bulma celebrate, but Gohan senses a strong force. Then, Vegita's pod (with him in it) comes flying in, and another space pod comes. Bulma contacts Earth to get help from Goku. Freeza, on Namek as well, finds one of the dragon balls.
