Story
The Saiyan Warriors, Vegeta and Nappa, have come to Earth... and blown up Metro East.
Then they fly off in the direction of the highest Battle Powers, hoping to meet Piccolo.
They do.
Then they tell him he's a space alien from the Planet Namek, a race of fighting magicians who create wish granting orbs. (And are agendered slug people.)
(Agendered, but still sexy.)
Rather than fight the Earthlings themselves though, Nappa plants some helpers for a warm up.
Creatures made of plants, the Saibaimen. (Who are also agendered.)
(But decidedly less sexy.)
Tenshinhan arrives...
... and kicks Saibai-butt.
Then Yamcha arrives...
... and dies almost immediately.
(He had finally become too pretty for this world.)
And now it's Kuririn's turn... and he isn't happy!
What's cut?
In episode 22, a strange and entirely too long subplot about Yajirobe blackmailing the police and the media for information about the Saiyans was cut.
Plus this really cool drawing of Goku.
In episode 23, lots of shenanigans at Kame House were cut, including Chichi asking where Gohan is...
... then fainting.
Though Kai showed this single moment of her passed out, Kai never establishes how or why her and Gyumao are at Kame House when they weren't earlier on in the episode.
Also, Bulma is into Yamcha again.
But c'mon. Look how pretty.
Most importantly, and tragically, this line was cut from the end of episode 22.
Their power is the real deal.
