- Freeza: Good Lord! I was lead to believe your species survived almost entirely on water! How is he so fat?!
Guru: Oh, hello. I'm Super Kami Guru. And I'm the guy who is not judging you on your appearance.
Original Airdate: April 16, 2011
While Jeice brings Captain Ginyu to Goku, the heroes split up; Gohan and Krillin to get the Dragon Radar and fetch the Balls from Freeza's ship, and Goku and Vegeta to take on the remaining Ginyu Force members. While Freeza finds Super Kami Guru, Vegeta bails, leaving Goku to face Ginyu alone.KILLING TROOOOOOOPES!!! IN THE OOOOOCEAAAANNNNN!!!
- Blatant Lies:
- Upon learning that Ginyu has left the Dragon Balls at Freeza's ship, Vegeta tells Goku he needs to use the restroom "about a hundred miles away." Goku, being the Idiot Hero he is, believes him.
- Guru tells Nail that he has faith that Nail can defeat Freeza due to Nail's being "Namek's Number One Son, a prodigy child, trained in the ancient ways," inspiring Nail to get past his initial hesitations and fight Freeza anyway. Upon them leaving, Guru comments "Fool. If I trained him in the new way, he might have stood a chance." While this would normally be a case of I Lied, the fact that it was Guru saying it...
- Brick Joke: Last episode, as Jeice repeatedly gets punched in the face by Goku, he tries to remember the Captain's advice to dodge. Here, when he gets punched one more time, with Ginyu watching...Ginyu: Jeice, what have I told you?!
- Call-Back:
- Raditz is once again referenced as a form of currency.
- Just like in Episode 19, Ginyu performs a Stealth Hi on Vegeta, which Vegeta once again returns before doing a Double Take.
- Goku once again punches Jeice in the face upon him and Captain Ginyu arriving. Ginyu also criticizes Jeice for not dodging like he taught Jeice to.
- When Jeice implies that Ginyu should use the Body Swap technique on Goku, Ginyu, thinking Jeice is talking about masturbation, admonishes him, adding that he "already did it in the pod on the way over here", referring to comments Burter and Recoome made during their Seinfeldian Conversation with Jeice on the same subject in Episode 20.
- Call-Forward:
- When Freeza refers to Guru as "Slug", Guru retorts "Leave my brother out of this!", acting as Foreshadowing to The Stinger of Lord Slug Abridged.
- Krillin explains to Vegeta that Freeza may have all seven Dragon Balls, but the fact that the sky hasn't turned "darker than the blackest void" means that the dragon residing hasn't been summoned yet. Vegeta would remember this a couple of episodes later.
- Description Cut:
- Ginyu asks Jeice if Recoome died with dignity. Cut to Recoome's corpse with his exposed butt hanging in the air, with sounds of flies buzzing.Jeice: Define "dignity," sir.
- Gohan wonders where Bulma is, to which Krillen suggests she's probably "doing something girly, like her hair." Cut to Bulma in a mech suit underwater fighting giant crabs.
- Ginyu asks Jeice if Recoome died with dignity. Cut to Recoome's corpse with his exposed butt hanging in the air, with sounds of flies buzzing.
- Everybody Has Standards: Super Kami Guru is quick to point out that unlike Freeza to him, he isn't judging Freeza based upon his appearance.
- Evil Plan: Freeza begins plotting on what he's going to do after the Dragon Balls make him immortal:Freeza: So, for the first century, I'll go easy on them, lure them into a false sense of security. And then, when they think I'm not so bad, BAM! I'll go full tyrant on them in the second century. After that, I'll disappear for a millennium, and make them wonder if I ever existed to begin with, just to come back and kill them all.
- A Father to His Men: Ginyu does not take the deaths of Recoome and Burter well. Guldo...not so much.
- Foreshadowing: Freeza demanded to know how Guru could be so fat despite his species subsisting off of water. In Episode 30-3, Guru confesses that he drank all the water and blamed the resulting drought on the albino Namekians.
- Let Me Get This Straight...: Jeice describes everything to Ginyu about that happened last episode. At first, he was panicking, but Ginyu orders him to calm down and make the report professionally.
- Vegeta does this upon realizing that Ginyu and Jeice have left the Dragon Balls back at Freeza's ship.
- Person as Verb: Jeice is a bit indignant at Captain Ginyu implying that he's short. Ginyu replies by telling Jeice not to "go all Vegeta" on him.
- Sneeze Cut: Krillen tells Vegeta that when one makes a wish on the Dragon Balls, "the sky turns darker than the blackest void." Cut to Mr. Popo back on Earth perking up in reply.
- Villain Respect: Guru approves of Nail's suggestion that Freeza "work the shaft" when Freeza asks about how to use the Dragon Balls.
"OH GOOOOOD! NATURAL LIIIIIGHT!!!"
