The History of Trunks is the third special of Dragon Ball Z Abridged produced by Team Four Star and released on March 19, 2015.
Summary[]
Trunks introduces himself and starts to explain his story. Trunks is still a baby and is in Bulma's arms crying. Gohan runs into a room with Chi-Chi, Ox-King, and Master Roshi. Chi-Chi says that Goku is dead for good, which makes Gohan scream. Trunks then says "Dad dead, dad dead" as a baby. Vegeta says "Son of a bitch!", Trunks repeats him.
Goku's friends mourn his death for six months until the androids kill all of them. After the intro screen, it shows a normal town going about its business, until the androids attack. A radio station was saying what town was being attacked but Bulma changes the station.
A younger Trunks realizes that the town is close and wants to help them out. Bulma disproves of this and says that she doesn't want him dead. Trunks ignores her and flies off to the city.
The Androids continue to attack the city. Trunks finally gets there but it is too late. The city is destroyed and in ruins. He wanders the city until he hears someone flying. Future Gohan appeared and Trunks stares in awe. Narrating, Trunks says, "Face to face to him, all I could say was," Then his younger self-starts talking fast and in a baby voice in front of Gohan.
Trunks and Gohan are in Trunks’ house talking. Gohan then say that Trunks will be his pupil from then on. Bulma comes back with some groceries. She says hi to Gohan and then tries to sleep with him, to which he "initially" turned down due to Trunks being present. "Worth a shot" Bulma replies and makes dinner (Note: that in an alternate universe Future Gohan complied with Future Bulma and entered a relationship). Bulma tries to create small talk but Gohan replies with "Can't talk, eating." and starts stuffing his face, causing Bulma to say that he's just like his dad, in which Gohan replies "In what regard?", with his mouth full. Bulma then says that he's strong, brave, and how he looks in his gi (the Canadian subtitles add that he has a TARDIS for a stomach). Gohan replies that it was the only thing Goku left him, Bulma thinking of it as sweet.
It then cuts to Trunks and Gohan training. Most of the training is to make Trunks a Super Saiyan like Gohan, though it was mostly "dodgy". Gohan notes he might be rough on Trunks, but it's nowhere as how Piccolo treated him during training. Despite that, however, he still looks up to him as the father he never had. Trunks then asks about Vegeta since Bulma never talks about him, which Gohan states that Vegeta had a lot to prove (after remembering a flashback where Vegeta beat up Gohan after Goku went Super Saiyan and thought Gohan was better than him). Gohan has also cut all contacts with Chi-Chi and Ox-King, the former suffering from sanity slippage from all that's happened. Gohan continues to push Trunks and is happy with the results showing. Piccolo (in Gohan's mind) believes the best training is on the battlefield, which Gohan agrees with.
The next day, Androids 17 and 18 attack Super World while having fun with the rides at the same time. Gohan and Trunks arrive and confront the androids. Gohan powers up into Super Saiyan and tells Trunks to watch until he's overmatched. Trunks is amazed at the intensity the fight and joins the fight when Gohan starts to get overmatched. Trunk, however, gets overpowered due to his inexperience, but before he's killed by 18, Gohan saves him. The androids blast everywhere but can't find the two due to them unable to sense their energy. They nuke the place up with "Scorched Earth" and leave. Gohan awakens and finds himself badly injured, and see's that he lost an arm. He tries to give him and Trunks Senzu Beans, but unfortunately, finds there's only one left.
After recovering at Bulma's, Trunks continues his training to become a Super Saiyan, but is getting nowhere. Gohan believes he's getting closer but is lacking the right push. Gohan explains that he uses the pain of loss in order to transform, remembering the deaths of Piccolo and Krillin (but not Goku, though Trunks brings it up). The androids attack a nearby city, and Gohan powers up to fight them. Trunks wants to come help, but is knocked out by Gohan for his own protection. While destroying the city, 17 admits he's getting bored of destroying the world and wants to become a park ranger. However, Gohan kicks him into a building and fights the androids even without an arm. Unfortunately, he's outmatched and is killed by the androids. In his last moments, he tells Piccolo that even with him gone, Trunks will rise and avenge him, though Piccolo reminds him that he's only a figment of his imagination and not really in his head. Trunks wakes up and heads to the city, finding through the wreckage Gohan's corpse. Sadden and angry over the loss of his mentor, Trunks unlocks his Super Saiyan powers.
Three years later, Trunks and Bulma are hard at work on the Time Machine when they hear a radio distress call about the androids attacking. Trunks and Bulma have an argument on whether he should wait for the time machine to be finished, or fight the androids, but Trunks is confident now that he's a Super Saiyan. He leaves off on his own and confronts the androids. But despite his best efforts, he's unable to defeat them. The androids realize that he's the kid from three years ago and taunt him saying that no one will stop them. Not the Z-Fighters, not Gohan, and not him. Trunks is beaten badly and depowers from Super Saiyan form, but before 17 blows him up, 18 steps in the way wanting the kill. 18 takes the full blast, and angrily takes 17 out of the wreckage. Trunks survives the encounter, admitting he still has no idea how, and wakes up in bed with Bulma at his side. She gives him two choices, either fight the androids again, or use the now completed time machine and go rescue Goku and the others. Trunks picks the second choice, mumbling it at first, when Bulma asks him again, he then says it out loud
A few months later, a recovered Trunks sets out to the past eager to see Goku and Vegeta (much to Bulma's fear of the latter). He promises that when he comes back, it will be an android free world. Trunks soon travels to the past. After Trunks disappears, Bulma, unfortunately, realizes that the universe works in multiverse theory. "Shit!"
In a post-credit’s scene, Oolong peeks through a periscope onto Kame House, which is ransacked and abandoned, and says the Androids haven't been back in two days, which Master Roshi couldn't believe they actually took it. Oolong wants to make a food run, but all that's left is spam and pork rinds, which he's already made peace with since he's just glad they're still alive, thanks to Roshi's submarine, the U.S.S. M'Dick. Roshi then asks the others how it feels "riding M'Dick," which Oolong rants he's been holding onto that question for 17 years. After Roshi says his patience was worth it, he still demands an answer, which Oolong replied, "it's tight and damp," Roshi cackles as Puar laments they're going to die in there.
Trivia[]
- This special is dedicated to Monty Oum, the Creator & Founder of the Web series RWBY from Rooster Teeth who died a month earlier from an allergic reaction. TFS had planned to have him voice Future Gohan.
- There was an alternate scene where Gohan would have sex with Bulma like Vegeta (replace the Galick Gun with the Masenko)
- Takahata101 admits to being the one who came up with the Gohan and Bulma sex scene. He admitted on Twitter that he held up a scripting session for an hour determined to make the scene into the movie.
- This special was originally planned for release in February. However, because of KaiserNeko's illness, it was pushed back. It's also considered at the time to be the biggest project Team Four Star has ever worked on for the show.
- When it became clear they were going to miss the February deadline they considered breaking it into two parts to get part one out during February and part two later on. They decided against this in the end.
- When Bulma feeds Gohan, she says to not ask where she gets the protein from to use in the food. This implies she's using her mother's clones from the sub-lab as the protein base, similar to when Yajirobe was eating them in Percussive Maintenance.
- While training Trunks, Gohan enacts several recurring gags seen when Piccolo was training him as a child, such as "FLY UP!", a reference to Piccolo's "CLIMB DOWN!" and the infamous "DODGE!" scream.
- In a nod to the episode, It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Saiyan, Vegeta's yell is heard in the scene before Trunks leaves to fight the androids. However, it's changed from Trunks waiting patiently and noticing the scream, to him arguing with his mother and not hearing it. This can be interpreted as evidence of the multiverse theory.
- Since Yamcha isn't alive in this timeline, all his parts were heavily edited out, such as replacing him with Yajirobe when the group is standing outside of Goku's home in the beginning. This can be interpreted as evidence of multiverse theory.
- This is the only DragonBall Z Abridged product that doesn't have the Disclaimer at the start of the video. This was due to the fact it started with a Dedication card at the beginning.
- This special is considered to by most as the darkest and most dramatic of all of DragonBall Z Abridged.
- Dr. Briefs is not credited, despite speaking in the movie.
- During the "T.J. and The Wombat" sequence, the female moan sound effect was voiced by Amber Lee Connors.
- This is the first time Piccolo calls Makankōsappō by it's real name, unlike in Episode 2 where he can't pronounce it
- However it's stated that he's only in Gohan's head and that he isn't actually there
- Doctor Who is heavily used for the time travel part, especially the credits, which are a remix of the Doctor Who theme and Cha-La. It even shows the Time Machine falling through a portal in time similar to the time vortex.
Errors[]
- When Trunks takes off to fight the androids as an teen, Bulma says "God bless him", despite the fact that Future Kami died becuase Future Piccolo died by the androids and Future Dende wasn't the "guardian"/God of that Earth yet

Episode Transcription (English)[]
VOICEOVER: Hello. My name is Trunks. And this... is my story. I mean, I was a baby during this part, so... the details are a little unclear.
GOHAN [off-screen]: Mom, what happened?!
CHI-CHI [o-s]: Your Dad is *dead*! *For good*!
GOHAN [o-s]: *Nooooooo*!
BABY TRUNKS: Dad dead! Dad dead!
TRUNKS [vo]: I am told those were my first words.
VEGETA: Son of a *bitch*!
BABY TRUNKS: Son bitch!
TRUNKS [vo]: And those were my second.
GOHAN: But he just got back from his training! After getting back from Namek! After *getting back* from his *training*! *After being DEAD*!
GOKU'S GHOST: Byyyyye, soooon...!
TRUNKS [vo]: And with the death of Goku, his family and friends were left to mourn… for approximately six months.
[The Z-Fighters die painfully.]
KRILLIN: Hey girl, how you—WAAH!! MY EYES!!
TRUNKS [vo]: Leaving the fate of the Earth... with little hope. Over the next thirteen years, the Androids would destroy small town after small town, working their way up. Maybe that's why we reacted the way we did.
DJ 1 [Radio Broadcast]: ...aaand welcome back, folks to TJ—
DJ 2 [RB]: —and the Wombat!
[The word "wombat" echoes while slowing down, followed by a woman saying, "Me so horny".]
TJ [RB]: Starting us off this hour with sports: The College Battleball Association has had to disband ENTIRELY.
WOMBAT [RB]: As most of its players and associate colleges have been destroyed by the Cyborgs.
AUDIO CLIP [RB]: Ahahahahahaha, WIPEOUT!
TJ [RB]: Speaking of which! In Cyborg News...
[Audio clips of a child's laughter, gunshots, and a woman moaning]
WOMBAT [RB]: As we currently speak, Paprikaburg is under siege by the mechanical threat!
TJ [RB]: But on the brighter side — ♪ Wombat's getting married! ♪ Ha ha ha!
[Audio clips of cheering, wedding music, and a woman moaning]
WOMBAT [RB]: That's right! Unfortunately, my beloved fiancée resides in Paprikaburg… and is probably, most certainly dying as we speak.
[Audio clips of a collective "Aww" of disappointment, funeral music, and a woman moaning]
WOMBAT [RB]: But — silver lining — I'M SINGLE AGAIN!
AUDIO CLIP [RB]: Oh, behave!
[Cheerful music plays before Bulma changes the channel to techno-rock.]
BULMA: (Sigh) I miss country...
YOUNG TRUNKS: Mom? Do you believe in destiny?
BULMA: I'm a scientist; so, no.
YOUNG TRUNKS: Paprikaburg is only thirty miles from here. If I hurry, I could save someone.
BULMA: Or you could die like your father.
YOUNG TRUNKS: Why do you say that every time I want to go fight them?
BULMA: Because YOU are 13, I'm 37, and I am all alone.
TRUNKS [vo]: My mother had been 37 for ten years...
BULMA: No means no. End of discus— Oh! No! Just, just fly away! That's fine!
BULMA (Mentally): '*God*... bless him...'
[People screaming and running]
CYBORG 17: Hey, 18! You keeping score?
CYBORG 18: *Why* would I be doing that?
17: (Scoffs) You said you would.
18: No, you said, "Hey, check this shit out!", then jumped in a car.
17: Aw, come on, sis! Is this about the shop earlier?
18: Oh, man, you wouldn't *believe* this haul! This is why I love these little inner-city shops; they always have the best brands.
[17 destroys the inner-city shop]
18: What the hell?! Why did you blow it up?! They were giving me free clothes!
17: Didn't give me nothin'.
18: It was a woman's clothing store.
17: Hey, I'm perfectly secure.
18: Is that why you dye your hair?
17: Tch, don't hate.
TRUNKS [vo]: I wasn't sure if I'd be able to do anything at all... but I had to at least try to stop their chaos. Unfortunately... I was too late.
YOUNG TRUNKS: Damn it! I'm too late!
TRUNKS [vo]: But... as I walked the ruins of that demolished city… a hero appeared! The hero of my time: Gohan! And face-to-face with him, all I could say was...
YOUNG TRUNKS: Gohan they keep destroying cities and I don't know how to stop them and now everybody's de-he-head!
TRUNKS [vo]: I believe it was profound.
YOUNG TRUNKS: You remember a time before this, Gohan… What was it like?
GOHAN: Well… When I was a toddler, my Uncle showed up, kidnapped me, and then Mr. Piccolo killed him and my Dad. Then *Mr. Piccolo* kidnapped me, the Saiyans showed up, killed a bunch of people — including Mr. Piccolo… then we went to Namek, a bunch more people died, we came back, then my Dad died *again*, then all my friends died, and now everyone else is dying.
YOUNG TRUNKS: But it was better, right?
GOHAN: ...No.
YOUNG TRUNKS: Well, I can help! I'm half-Saiyan, just like you!
GOHAN: I've got one, Mr. Piccolo...
YOUNG TRUNKS: What?
GOHAN: I said from now on, you shall be my pupil... and you will call me Mr. Gohan!
YOUNG TRUNKS: Oh! OK. Would you like to stay for dinner, Mr. Gohan?
MR. GOHAN: Mr. Gohan would!
BULMA: Trunks, are you home? Or should I change my dating profile from "Single Mother" to just "Single"? Because one gets more hits— oh... Gohan! Long time no see!
MR. GOHAN: Bulma.
SINGLE MOTHER: *So*... *Gohan*... you staying the night? We got plenty of room here but, you know... no extra beds, so… we'll have to share...
[Awkward silence]
MR. GOHAN: ...I'm good.
BULMA: Well, worth a shot. Who's hungry? You wouldn't believe how hard it is to get produce nowadays. Luckily, we have our own greenhouses. Don't ask me where I get the protein from, though.
MR. GOHAN: Can't talk; eating!
[Sounds of Mr. Gohan eating]
BULMA: Oh, you are *just* like your father...
MR. GOHAN [mouth full]: In what regard?
BULMA: Well, you're strong, and brave, and look at you in that gi.
MR. GOHAN: It was the only thing he left me.
BULMA: Aww, that's sweet.
TRUNKS [vo]: Over the next few weeks, Gohan would begin training me, focusing on making me a Super Saiyan like him. His methods were… dodgy.
MR. GOHAN: DODGE!
YOUNG TRUNKS: Aah-haa!
{SPLASH}
YOUNG TRUNKS: Help me, Mr. Gohan!
MR. GOHAN: FLY UP!
YOUNG TRUNKS: The whirlpool's too strong! I can't swim!
MR. GOHAN: *I said*, "FLY UP!"
YOUNG TRUNKS: Maybe... I can build a raft!
MR. GOHAN: (Frustrated groan)
[Trunks coughing]
CRAB: Bumba!
MR. GOHAN: Here. Clean yourself up. You know, if you think I'm rough, you should have trained with Mr. Piccolo.
YOUNG TRUNKS: You really looked up to him, didn't you?
MR. GOHAN: Yeah. He was like the father I never had.
YOUNG TRUNKS: You know, speaking of dads... Mom never talks about mine… You knew him, right? What was he like?
[FLASHBACK]
VEGETA: So what!? You think having a dad who's a Super Saiyan makes you better than me!?
GOHAN: Ugh! Ugh! Aah! Uuh! Ugh!
YOUNG GOHAN: No-ho-ho...!
VEGETA: WRONG ANSWER! GOHAN: Uuh! Aah! Uuh!
MR. GOHAN: ...he had a lot to prove.
TRUNKS [vo]: Gohan would never talk much about his family. Apparently, his mother and grandfather lived alone in the woods.
OX KING: I'm home! And I've got groceries! H-how are you doing, sweetheart?
CHI-CHI: I should be a grandmother, you know.
OX KING: Ohhh...
CHI-CHI: I should be a grandmother, with a Nobel Prize-winning son. But what am I? A widow... with a son who never talks to me and is possibly dead.
OX KING: You... y-y-you, uh...
CHI-CHI: So I'm just gonna sit here, and knit this baby sweater.
OX KING: So, uh... is dinner happening?
CHI-CHI: Will dinner bring my husband back!?
OX KING: Maybe...?
TRUNKS [vo]: Gohan would continue pushing me harder and harder, day and night, to become a Super Saiyan.
[Trunks yelling in the background] MR. GOHAN: That's it. Look at him, Mr. Piccolo — he's almost ready. What do you think?
MR. PICCOLO: 'I think the only real training you'll ever get in this world... is on the battlefield.'
MR. GOHAN: You're *right*!
TRUNKS [vo]: The next day, the Cyborgs would attack Super World.
Announcer [loudspeaker]: Hello, and welcome to Super World! "Slogan pending!" Please stay behind the line!
GUARD: Huh? E-e-e-excuse me, you two! Y-y-you can't cut the line!
18: Do... you not know who we are?
GUARD: If you'd like to get on the rides faster, we do have a Fast Pass system that's only 7900 zen– uuh-hu-huh...!
18: This is why I hate theme parks.
[Upbeat music] [17 and 18 enjoy the rides]
[Upbeat music] [People flee the park, screaming in terror]
[Upbeat music] [17 and 18 enjoy the rides]
18: Yeah, you know, when you can fly, these rides don't really seem that fun.
MR. GOHAN: Well, if you're already bored, why not try taking a ride on my fist?
17: ...*Wow*. You, uh, want a minute to rephrase that there, chief?
MR. GOHAN: Nope! I'd rather take that minute to kick your ass!
18: OK, now see, that's better.
MR. GOHAN: Now, Trunks, I want you to just sit back and spectate! Unless they team up on me, in which case — jump in.
YOUNG TRUNKS: I can't help but feel like I'm woefully unprepared for this.
MR. GOHAN: And that's *exactly* what we prepared for!
TRUNKS [vo]: This would be my first real battle. And I'd never seen anyone fight so fiercely! Gohan had always told his stories about the fights in the past… but those had a lot more screaming and posturing. But, as soon as Gohan gained the upper hand...
17: Damn, he's pissed today!
18: You think it's his time of the month?
17: Ha! Ah, it's funny 'cause you're a chick!
YOUNG TRUNKS: Gohan! Stop it!
18: I can't believe you brought a kid to a battle! Super irresponsible.
TRUNKS [vo]: She wasn't wrong...
YOUNG TRUNKS: I'm not afraid of you! I can take care of you myself!
TRUNKS [vo]: I, however, was.
18: Now what do you think?
YOUNG TRUNKS [strained]: You hit like a girl!
18: (Sigh)... Well... you're not wrong.
MR. GOHAN: TRUNKS! Oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit!
18: Oh no, you don't!
[Explosions aplenty]
17: Well, shit. Think he got away?
18: I don't know; we can't sense life energy.
17: Seriously, what was the point of not giving us that ability? Seems like an intentional design flaw if you ask me.
18: Oh well. Scorched Earth?
17 [o-s]: Scorched Earth.
MR. GOHAN: (Mentally) 'Ah, crapbaskets!'
MR. GOHAN: Oww! Pain! Oh, everything's in pain. Ugh, everything but my left ar– ...aw, man! Ugh, aagh, too bad I'm not a Namekian. Be reeaally handy right about now...
MR. GOHAN: (Mentally) 'But I'll just settle on the next best thing and use the Senzu Beans! Bean... singular.'
MR. GOHAN: Ah, well, that's disappointing...
[Typing] SINGLE MOTHER: Looking for... male… mid-to-late thirties… black spiky hair… not too tall… loves to work out.
YOUNG TRUNKS: Hey, Mom?
BULMA: (Sigh) What is it, Trun—OH, MY GOD!
YOUNG TRUNKS: What do you know about reattaching arms? ...That I can't find?
BULMA: Oh, sweetie. So... have you learned anything today?
YOUNG TRUNKS: The only good Cyborg is a dead Cyborg?
BULMA: (Sigh)... You really are your father's son...
TRUNKS [vo]: Now stronger and more motivated than ever, I was back to training as soon as Gohan was able again. Though I think he was still a little... sore.
MR. GOHAN: Come on, Trunks! Just imagine losing someone or something close to you! Like your arm! 'Cause trust me… THAT REALLY FRIGGIN' SUCKS!
[Trunks vomits]
MR. GOHAN: Alright, take five.
TRUNKS [vo]: Unfortunately... I wouldn't transform in time.
YOUNG TRUNKS: So, Gohan — do you usually hang out in wastelands?
MR. GOHAN: What do you mean? This is where I live.
YOUNG TRUNKS: Oh… ...it's nice.
MR. GOHAN: I think you're really close, you know. You just need something to push you over the edge...
YOUNG TRUNKS: Well, you always tell me to use the pain of loss. But... I've never really lost anyone.
MR. GOHAN: For me, it's my greatest source of anger. I just think about losing Krillin or Mr. Piccolo--
YOUNG TRUNKS: Or your dad?
MR. GOHAN: Uh, yeah, sure. And then it just builds up inside until finally... it explodes.
[Explosion]
MR. GOHAN: Yeah. Like that, only metaphorically.
YOUNG TRUNKS: The Cyborgs! Mr. Gohan, we have to go!
MR. GOHAN: No, Trunks! You stay here this time. We both know you're not ready.
YOUNG TRUNKS: Mr. Gohan, you only have one arm! What can you do with one arm?!
MR. GOHAN: You know what? You're right. What can I do with only one arm?
YOUNG TRUNKS: Thank you, Mr. Gohan! I will not let you dow—
[chop]
MR. GOHAN: *That*. I can do that with one arm.
MR. GOHAN: (Mentally) 'Now... what can I do to the *Cyborgs* with one arm...?'
MR. PICCOLO: 'Use the Makankōsappō!'
MR. GOHAN: 'You never taught me that.'
MR. PICCOLO: 'Uuuuse iiiiiit!'
[explosion]
17: You know what? I'm bored.
18: Well, we could find another city.
17: No, I mean, like... bored of this whole "Great Destroyer" shtick, you know? Destroying things, killing people... it's just boring.
[Someone screams]
18: Yeah, it's kinda lost its luster. After you wipe an entire genre of music off the face of the Earth, what's left?
17: You know what I always wanted to do? Like, since before all this? Be a Park Ranger.
18: You want to range a park?
[man screams]
17: Hell yeah! Livin' outdoors, communicatin' with nature, shootin' poachers… Yeah. I think I'ma do tha—
[kick!] UUH! GUH! YOU GODDAMN CHEAP SON OF A BITCH!
[18 laughs]
18: He slapped your shit!
17: OK! You know what? That's it! I'm killing every human! Every. One! Then I'm gonna range the shit out of that park!
MR. GOHAN: Neither of you are leaving here alive! I'm stronger than I was before!
18: Yeah; also lighter. Looks like you dropped some weight since last time. Five, ten pounds? I don't know; how much does an arm weigh?
17: Gotta hand it to you, though. Pretty ballsy coming after us all asymmetrical like that. But four hands are better than one. Long story short: You're gonna die.
MR. GOHAN: No! This isn't where my story ends!
TRUNKS [vo]: This is where Gohan's story ends.
MR. GOHAN: D'ugh-egh! D'YAAAGH!
MR. GOHAN: (Mentally) 'Ahhh, well... this is it, Mr. Piccolo… But at least we still have Trunks. I trained him just like you wanted.'
MR. PICCOLO: 'You know I'm not actually here, right?'
MR. GOHAN: 'Ah...'
MR. GOHAN: 'Ah... crapbaskets...'
YOUNG TRUNKS: —down! Huh? Oh no...
[Ominous music]
[Shocked gasp]
[Music becomes sorrowful]
[Quiet whimpering and sobbing]
YOUNG TRUNKS: Gohan… Gohan! GOHAAAAAAN!
[Angry screaming]
[Trunks whimpering.]
[Angry screaming resumes.]
[Angry screaming continues.]
SLIGHTLY OLDER TRUNKS: Alright, Mom. I got the rest of the supplies for the Time Machine. It's too bad Grandpa isn't here to help you build it.
BULMA: Yeah. Unfortunately, he's still off searching the cosmos for New Namek.
DR. BRIEF [o-s]: By *God*! Is that it?!
After all these— GOD DAMMIT ALL!
BULMA: So until your Grandpa returns — just me.
RADIO: (Static) Hello! This is an emergency broadcast from Cuminopolis! The Cyborgs are attacking! And they are sparing no one! No one is saf—!
[Radio broadcast terminated]
TRUNKS: That's close to here.
BULMA: Trunks, I know what you're thinking, but let me just finish the Time Machine—
TRUNKS: We don't have *time* for that!
BULMA: That's what the *Machine* is for!
TRUNKS: Listen! I'm stronger now! I'm a Super Saiyan! [Vegeta yelling from another planet... and timeline]
BULMA: So was Gohan, and look how that turned out! [Vegeta yelling from another planet... and timeline]
TRUNKS: Oh, so now you're just replacing Dad with *Gohan*? [Vegeta yelling from another planet... and timeline]
BULMA: Trust me, I *tried*! [Vegeta yelling from another planet... and timeline]
[Disturbed silence, except for Vegeta's yelling (which fades out)]
TRUNKS: ...I'm going now.
BULMA: Be safe.
TRUNKS [vo]: And so, armed with the sword given to me by Tapion... which is a whole... other story… I raced off to fight the Cyborgs... one last time.
18: We all wrapped up, then?
17: Yep! Looks like we're out of people to kill here.
TRUNKS: Why don't you try me?
17: Wait, did you just *ask* us to kill you?
TRUNKS: N-no; a-as in "fight me"!
18: I'm sorry, do we know you?
TRUNKS: YES! You murdered my maste—
18: Oh wait, hold on...I don't care.
TRUNKS [vo]: To this day, I'm still not sure why I did what I did.
TRUNKS [vo]: Maybe it was grief.
TRUNKS [vo]: Maybe it was puberty.
TRUNKS [vo]: Maybe, I just had something to prove.
TRUNKS [vo]: A young half-blood Super Saiyan, armed with nothing but a sword and his guts.
TRUNKS [vo]: Unfortunately... half-human and half-Saiyan… might just be analogous to half-brave, and half-stupid.
TRUNKS: I...
TRUNKS: I did it!
18 [o-s]: Hey! Doesn't he kinda remind you of you-know-who?
17 [o-s]: Now that you mention it, I do see the resemblance… but unlike good ol' Righty, he's still got both arms.
18 [o-s]: Yeah... but not for long.
TRUNKS (Mentally): 'Oh... crapbaske—'
TRUNKS: GAH!
18: You lost, little boy?
TRUNKS [o-s]: Ohhh...
[Pained yells]
17: Hey, Sunshine. Cough if you're still alive.
[Violent coughing]
18: Good boy!
TRUNKS [strained]: Why? Why are you doing this?
17: The question isn't "Why?", kid. It's "Why not?"
18: I mean... who's going to stop us?
17: Not those guys seventeen years ago.
18: Not ol' One-Arm.
17: And certainly not you.
TRUNKS: You...
TRUNKS: You...!
TRUNKS: You evil bunch of jerks, I'll kick your God damn...
17: Hu-ha-ha!
TRUNKS: You evil bunch of jerks, I'll kick your God damn...
17: This is hilarious!
TRUNKS: ...you killed my master...
18: Yeah!
TRUNKS: ...you killed all those people...
18: Although now it's kind of annoying.
TRUNKS: WHY?
TRUNKS: WHY? WHY?
18: Now it's sad.
TRUNKS: WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?
18: And now it's annoying again.
TRUNKS: WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?
TRUNKS: Gah-huu--!
[More pain]
17: Wait a sec... this kid look familiar to you, sis?
18: Yeah...! He was at the amusement park with Stumpy!
17 [condescending]: Aww, who's a little survivor? You are! Yes, you are! Let's fix that, shall we?
18: Dibs!
17 [o-s]: SIS! GET OUT OF THE—
[Boosh]
18 [o-s]: Did you just friggin' *blast* me?!
17 [o-s]: You stepped in *front* of it! What is *wrong* with you?!
18 [o-s]: NO-NO-TH-THAT'S IT! We're leaving!
17 [o-s]: Oh come on, *sis*! ...Sis, get back here!
TRUNKS [vo]: I still have *no idea* how I survived…
BULMA: Trunks, sweetie? You waking up?
TRUNKS: Mom? Am I alive?
How long was I out?
BULMA: Well, I finished the Time Machine.
TRUNKS: Oh... is that long?
BULMA: Yeeeaah, which means you got two options: You take another swing at the Cyborgs...
TRUNKS: [Groans in pain]
BULMA: Or you use the Time Machine to go save Goku.
TRUNKS [mumbling]: I wanna save Goku...
BULMA: *Trunks*...
TRUNKS [louder]: I want to save Goku!
BULMA: Good boy!
TRUNKS [vo]: After recovering a few months, I was finally ready.
BULMA: Aww! My jacket looks so good on you. All the girls in the past are just gonna love it.
TRUNKS: Thanks, Mom.
TRUNKS [vo]: So this is it! I can't believe I finally get to meet history's greatest hero!
BULMA: Yeah... Goku might not be exactly how you think, so do temper your expectations.
TRUNKS: And Dad! I finally get to meet Dad!
BULMA: Oh shit, you do.
TRUNKS: Huh?
BULMA: I mean, just be yourself, sweetie, and everything will turn out okay!
TRUNKS: Alright, Mom. I'm off.
TRUNKS [vo]: Next time you see me... this'll be a Cyborg-free world!
BULMA: Yup! ...Unless this actually operates on Multiverse Theory, in which case—
[Tardis sound effects]
TRUNKS: Can't hear you, Mom; Time Machine!
[Tardis sound effects]
BULMA: Bye, sweetie!
[Tardis sound effects fade out]
BULMA: ...Aaand Multiverse Theory it is: Shit!

OOLONG [o-s]: Alright, they haven't been back in two days.
MASTER ROSHI [o-s]: I can't believe they took my house...
OOLONG: I'm going in for a food run. All that's left is the Spam and the pork rinds...
PUAR: We both knew this day would come, Oolong!
OOLONG: I have long since made peace with this. I'm just glad we're still alive.
ROSHI: All thanks to my submarine: The "U.S.S. M'Dick"!
ROSHI: Speaking of which...
OOLONG: Oh no...
ROSHI: I've been meaning to ask...!
OOLONG: Knew it, I friggin' knew it!
ROSHI: HOW DOES IT FEEL RIDING M'DICK!?!
OOLONG: *Seventeen years*! Seventeen years you've been holding on to that one!
ROSHI: You don't know the patience I have...
ROSHI: Didn't answer my question either.
OOLONG: It's tight and damp...
[Roshi cackles.]
PUAR [o-s]: We're gonna die in here... [Roshi continues cackling.]
