Dragon Ball Kai ep 154 - A Secret Plan Comes Together In A Flash -- Please Grant These Two Wishes!

Episode sources

Story
Mr. Satan's challenge stops Majin Boo suddenly in his tracks, surprising everyone--
but most especially, Mr. Satan.
After some struggle, Boo spits something out from the back of his throat.
That something turns into Good Boo, Mr. Satan's friend.
Although disconnected, Good Boo had been orchestrating some control over the Evil Boo, preventing him from attacking Mr. Satan. But now, the Evil Majin Boo has complete control.
And Mr. Satan holds him personally responsible for the state of his friend.
Leading to an epic and earnest attack from Mr. Satan--
and a single punch victory from Majin Boo.
But before he can finish off the World Champion of Combat Sports...
... Mr. Boo stands, ready to defend his friend.
"I hate you! Don't pick on Satan!"
An epic struggle between Boos commences 
but most of Mr. Boo's power now rests inside the Kid Boo, leaving the fight mostly one-sided.
And worst still, Goku's ki, which he'd been trying to gather, suddenly runs out!
Turns out that SSJ3 was always more style than function.
However, Vegeta has a last-ditch plan for victory
sending Dende to his homeworld of Namek
to gather the Dragon Balls
and have Porunga bring back the Earth, and everyone who has died.
This time, Vegeta proclaims, the Earth shall save itself!

What's cut?
Some beautiful establishing shots from DBZ 283.
Goku and Vegeta exchanging calm smiles when they think they're about to die, also DBZ 283.
Finally, this effect from DBZ 283, played as the Kaioshin and Dende teleport to Namek
is arbitrarily replaced with this screensaver from Windows 98.
