11	----
12	!!You'll have to distract him while I charge these tropes:
13	* BreakingTheFourthWall: A case of EarlyInstallmentWeirdness.
14	** Goku points out to Raditz that Piccolo's status as a Namekian rather than a demon hasn't been established.
15	** Krillin cheers that he's not the first to die in the series.
16	* ChirpingCrickets: When Gohan is kidnapped by Piccolo:
17	-->'''Krillin:''' Quick, somebody stop him!\
18	(''beat'')\
19	(''crickets'')\
20	'''Krillin:''' Damn it, Roshi!\
21	'''Roshi:''' Shut up, Krillin.\
22	(''[[RunningGag Krillin Owned Count]]: 2'')
23	* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Raditz doesn't understand why Goku's and Piccolo's power levels increase when they take off their weighted clothing.
24	-->'''Raditz:''' So, nudity makes you stronger on this planet?
25	* DeliciousDistraction: As Raditz has his foot on Goku's chest:
26	-->''[Raditz applies pressure to his foot]''\
27	''[cracking sound]''\
28	'''Goku:''' AHH!\
29	'''Raditz:''' Stop ignoring me!\
30	'''Goku:''' Aaah, my ''ribs!'' I think you broke my... ''[dreamingly]'' Mmmm... ''Ribs''...
31	* DoesNotUnderstandSarcasm: Piccolo sarcastically confesses to being a Yoshi, and Goku believes it.
32	-->'''Piccolo:''' It's called "sarcasm"!\
33	'''Goku:''' [[IsItSomethingYouEat What's that taste like?]]\
34	'''Piccolo:''' Dammit, Goku!
35	* DudeNotFunny: One of the InUniverse {{Running Gag}}s established is Krillin saying something inconsiderate about recently-fallen comrades.
36	-->'''Krillin:''' Holy crap. ''(cheerfully)'' I'm not the first person to die in this series!\
37	'''Roshi:''' Krillin!\
38	'''Krillin:''' What?\
39	'''Roshi:''' Too soon!
40	* EnemyMine: Subverted, Goku and Piccolo team up to defeat Raditz but Piccolo uses the opportunity to kill Goku as well.
41	* TheHeroDies: Goku is killed by a Special Beam Cannon through the esophagus.
42	* IsItSomethingYouEat: Goku wonders this about sarcasm, and soon after, gets distracted by the name 'ribs'.
43	* TooLongDidntDub: Inverted; Piccolo can't say the original Japanese name of his attack, so he calls it the "Special Beam Cannon" instead.
