Episode 2: The Emperor’s Quest

As Goku and Bulma continue their quest for the Dragonballs, Bulma stops at her house, explaining to Goku what a TV is, and every other home appliance.  Bulma then smells Goku and finds out he doesn’t even know what a bath is, much less taken one!  Giving Goku a bath, Bulma tries to relax in her own shower, but Goku asks to give Bulma a bath!  After some fighting, the two try to have dinner, but Goku doesn’t want veggies!  Goku decides to go out looking for food.  

Meanwhile, an evil tyrant known as Emperor Pilaf is looking for the dragonballs, and helping him are his assistants, Mai and Shao.  Pilaf, who has one Dragonball and is looking for the rest, shouts at Shao for not finding another Dragonball.  Mai does not find one either but reveals that one Dragonball is rumored to be hidden in a secluded area known as Skull Canyon.  Mai and Shao both head out to find it there, although quite nervous since no one has returned alive from it.  Mai and Shao arrive on the spot, but they attract young Goku, who mistakes their plane for a bird.  Mai and Shao try to shoo Goku away, but an angry pack of wolves comes out from nowhere and tries to attack.  Goku easily defeats them all, and takes some home to eat. 

Meanwhile, Pilaf’s henchmen run scared back into the plane, which Goku tackles, still thinking it’s a bird!  Finally getting home, Goku successfully disgusts Bulma again with his fried wolf, but the two finally fall asleep, getting ready for the next days adventure.

The next morning, Goku comes across a turtle that has lost it’s way, and he and Bulma decide to help it back to the sea.

Bulma/Goku: 3 Dragonballs
