8Vegeta has returned to Earth, and moves into Capsule Corp without preamble. The sitcom hijinks are cut short when the Z-fighters sense a disturbance; ''Freeza'' has come back! An even bigger surprise awaits when they move to confront him on his quest for blind vengeance.
9----
10!!THESE TROPES ARE BACK, BITCHES!
11* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Contrary to what Krillin considers "neat", Yamcha doesn't like the idea of Vegeta living at Capsule Corporation. Then this happens:
12-->'''Vegeta:''' Earth woman! Where's the cleansing powder?\
13'''Bulma:''' We don't have that here. We have soap.\
14'''Vegeta:''' The hell is "soap"?\
15'''Bulma:''' It's that yellow block there made of animal fat.\
16'''Vegeta:''' That sounds ''awesome!'' ''(chomp)'' Blah! This tastes nothing like you just said!\
17'''Yamcha:''' Okay, I change my mind. This ''is'' pretty "neat".
18* BondOneLiner: Trunks at the end of the episode after killing Freeza's henchmen after the latter told them to treat their invasion of Earth as a scavenger hunt: "So... how many points are those?"
19* BrickJoke: This is the birth of Vegeta's infamous pink shirt. And the fact that his Saiyan armor needs to be dry-cleaned.
20* CallBack: The [[NoodleIncident Jockstrap Incident]] is brought up once again. According to King Cold, Freeza ended up getting "boxed in" during it.
21* TheChewToy: Vegeta becomes this over the pink shirt, as Tien and Piccolo both make a point of mentioning it when they arrive.
22* DistractingDisambiguation: When Vegeta first senses the approach of Freeza and reacts accordingly, Yamcha initially asks him if he's still angry about the pink shirt, and Vegeta tries to tell him what's going on. He stops to [[ThatMakesMeFeelAngry matter-of-factly state that he's]] "[[CallBack absolutely livid]]" about it before bringing the bad news.
23* DoubleEntendre: Krillin with one of his best, when Gohan asks him if he's sure Freeza is on the way:
24-->'''Krillin:''' Gohan, once you'd had a man inside of you, you know when he's coming.
25* HesBack:
26--> '''Vegeta:''' I'M BACK BITCHES!
27* LastDisrespects: Yamcha asks Bulma where she buried him when he died. It turns out, they didn't bother burying him, and his corpse was still rotting in the crater he was blown up in.[[note]]In the original, Yamcha, Piccolo, and Tien were all placed in cryo-coffins, similar to the ones that Krillin, Chiaotzu, and Master Roshi were kept in after they were killed by King Piccolo and his minions. But it is presumed their bodies disappeared when they were claimed to train with King Kai, as what happened with Goku's body.[[/note]]
28-->'''Yamcha:''' Uhh, where did you bury me, anyway?\
29'''Bulma:''' Bury?
30* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: Yamcha is disregarded twice in the episode:
31** First by Vegeta, when he confronts the returning Saiyan:
32--->'''Yamcha:''' Hey! You've got a lot of nerve coming back here!\
33'''Vegeta:''' Oh, a valet. Neat. I'm not tipping.\
34'''Yamcha:''' Don't you remember who I am?! We fought when you landed on Earth!\
35'''Vegeta:''' No, ''I'' fought Kakarot. ''Nappa'' fought everyone else. Well, except for that one scrub who got killed by a Saiba--(''{{beat}}, then Vegeta starts laughing hysterically'')
36** Then by Bulma, when Vegeta calls out from the shower after Yamcha says him being there was "neat" after all:
37--->'''Vegeta:''' Is that the ''beta male''?!\
38'''Bulma:''' No! [[ButtMonkey Krillin]] just got here!\
39'''Vegeta:''' Oh ''God'', they're breeding!
40* OnceDoneNeverForgotten: Vegeta completely forgot that Yamcha died from a Saibaman attack. Once he remembers, he can't help but laugh.
41* PorkyPigPronunciation: Thanks to his new mechanical implants frequently short-circuiting, Freeza ends up stammering a lot before switching to a different word.
42* ShoutOut: [[Franchise/TheIncredibles "Mom/Woman, where is my Saiyan suit?"]]
43-->'''Chi-Chi:''' It's under your bed.\
44'''Gohan:''' Thank you!
45
46-->'''Bulma:''' It's in the wash.\
47'''Vegeta:''' [[PrecisionFStrike YOU BITCH]]!
48* SkewedPriorities: Yamcha tries to talk to Vegeta about the latter's budding relationship with Bulma while the gang is waiting for Freeza to land. Vegeta can't believe Yamcha has the gall to bring the topic up at that moment.
49* TemptingFate: Vegeta tells Bulma he hates the color pink. When he finishes showering, the clothes she set out for him beforehand include his infamous pink shirt.
50* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: Vegeta does this when he returns to Earth.
51* TheUnfought: Yamcha reminds Vegeta that they fought when he first arrived on Earth. Vegeta corrects him by saying the prince only fought Goku/[[InsistentTerminology Kakarot]], while Nappa fought everyone else. Yamcha himself never had the chance to fight because he was killed early by a Saibaman, which Vegeta finds hilarious after remembering "that one scrub".
