Vegeta got what he asked for. He wanted to fight against the impossibly powerful Artificial Humans, and he got just that. #18 has beaten him thoroughly. She makes no move for a killing blow, but seems satisfied to snap his arm completely out of alignment. Charitable, when you consider that Vegeta started it.
Against his own advice, Trunks leaps into the fray to protect his father.
As promised, #17 enters the fight to keep things even.
... and he takes out Trunks without much effort.
In the stupidest moves of their careers, Piccolo and Tenshinhan leap into the fight as well.
And the whole lot of them are tossed around like rag dolls, too weak to do more than kick up dust.
Kuririn is the only one smart enough not to pick a fight with the Artificial Humans. 17 tells Kuririn that his friends aren't dead, so he should give them all Senzu Beans to recover their injuries. And hey, if they get stronger, they can try this whole fighting thing again. Kuririn is shocked by how casual they are, so he asks them what their goal is. It's the silently serene #16 who answers: To kill Son Goku. Nothing more, nothing less. To 17, it's entirely a game, nothing to do with Dr. Gero's schemes, which is why they don't bother asking Kuririn where Goku is or how to find him.
18 gives Kuririn a smooch goodbye. And with that, they leave to find a car, so that they might enjoy their 'game' to the fullest.
Kuri's got the "I-Want-to-Get-Married-For-Once-Boner".
