|
As Gokuu searches for the Si Xing Qiu, there are two other forces searching for Dragon Balls as well: Pilaf and his gang, and the Silver Company of the Red Ribbon Army. The three parties all end up in a village where an old man is selling fake Dragon Balls. Though as it turns out, there had been a Dragon Ball on his roof, but it was taken by a bird.

This episode had a pretty boring plot, so they threw in some naked Gokuu to spice things up, but FUNimation had to remove that for Cartoon Network. Here is where you can start to see evidence of the scripts beginning to suck.
