Aired on February 14, 1990
Goku, Krillin, and Gohan recover from their battle while Bulma and Chi Chi arrive to assist them. The group mourns the deaths of Yamcha, Chiaotzu, Tien, Piccolo, and Kami, realizing they cannot use the Dragon Balls to resurrect the fallen without knowing their location. Remembering Vegeta mention that the Nameks created the Dragon Balls, Krillin proposes traveling to the planet Namek. However, the journey requires 4339.2516 years using standard travel methods. To reduce this time, the group decides to utilize Nappa's spaceship, which travels significantly faster than Saiyan vessels, allowing them to reach their destination more quickly.
