History Tearjerker / DragonBallZAbridged

'''Freeza''': [[BaitTheDog I'm sure he's in a better place]], [[KickTheDog Ah who am I kidding he's probably in hell.

** This conversation:

'''Freeza''': [[FauxAffablyEvil I know]].

* Gurter after being decapitated, he starts to ponder the meaning of his life [[YankTheDogsChain then Vegeta throws another dog trick at him.]]
* Burter going into a VillainousBSOD after being [[BerserkButton reminded that even Gurter is technically faster than him]], he opens up about his insincerities and just when Jeice cheers him up, Goku beats him.

* Yamacha looking on while Goku is screaming in pain as he suffers from The Heart Virus, while the spoken dialogue is PlayedForLaughs you can tell he's real worried about him, probably the only one of the gang that Yamcha can consider a friend.
** The thought of having to just stand there watching your friend suffer due to an extremely painful disease, knowing full well there's not a damned thing you can do about it can evoke tears...

* Just like in the source material, the Bad Future Trunks comes from. Especially Yamcha's fate.

** It all finally catches up to him once Android 18 [[spoiler:[[SickeningCrunch breaks his arm]].]] [[AssholeVictim Granted he had it coming]], but [[{{Foreshadowing}} this is just setting up to how he'll react when]] [[spoiler:[[HeroKiller Cell]] kills Future Trunks]].

* After Future Trunks tells Vegeta that he's not as strong as Goku, [[BerserkButton Vegeta snaps]] and [[DisproportionateRetribution winds his own son]].

** Immediately lampshaded by Tien who essentially tells Trunks that they aren't "friends" in any sense of the word. They pretty much just embody the whole enemy of my enemy is my friend idea, which in no way states that they have to like each other. The Z Warriors and Vegeta are like VitriolicBestBuds minus the best buds bit

'''Trunks''': <upset> How are these people friends with you!?

-->'''Freeza''': It seems our [[ColdBloodedTorture game]] is over, Vegeta. Now that we're done here, it's time to send you crying home to mommy.
-->'''Vegeta''': [[CallBack My mother's dead]].
-->'''Freeza''': [[FauxAffablyEvil I know]].

--> '''Goku''': C'mon, you deserve a proper burial.
--> '''Freeza''': Ah, yes. A proper burial: an unmarked grave on an empty planet in the middle of Nowhere, Space. Honestly, I'd say it's too good for him.
--> '''Goku''': I'll be sure to give Freezer one for you, best buddy. Goodbye.

---> '''Trunks''': Oh come on, we both know I'm your son.
---> '''Vegeta''': And are you as disappointed as I am?
---> '''Trunks''': *growls*

---> '''Vegeta''': Wow, you're just the Grand Central Station of disappointment, aren't you?
---> '''Trunks''': <upset> How are these people friends with you!?

* Vegeta's treatment of Trunks in Episode 38 is quite sad to watch:

** Even later, when Vegeta sees ''the real Androids'' that Trunks warned them about...

* Episode 38 has Vegeta say these to Trunks:

* Tien's reaction to Chaotzu's death. Great bit of acting from Ganxingba.

* Goku's reaction to Freeza killing Krillin. You can hear from the sound of his voice that Goku was trying to hold in his tears.

** And after Freeza kills him.

* Freeza's beat-down of Vegeta.
** Freeza: You see? It's just like I told you. Like a bitch note
*** And after Freeza kills him:
*** Goku: C'mon, you deserve a proper burial.
*** Freeza: Ah, yes. A proper burial: an unmarked grave on an empty planet in the middle of Nowhere, Space. Honestly, I'd say it's too good for him.
**** Goku: I'll be sure to give Freezer one for you, best buddy. Goodbye.
