Summary
At Goku's House, Goku has a nightmare battling against the Androids and gets choked as Chi-Chi tries to reassure him.
Meanwhile, Vegeta and Future Trunks search the Northern Mountains for Dr. Gero's Lab, Future Trunks tries to warn a stubborn Vegeta that the Androids are more powerful than he realizes.
On the way back, Bulma and Yajirobe tell Gohan to take them home. When Bulma mentions Goku, Gohan realizes that checking on Goku and seeing if he is okay is urgent and he then flies away at high speed with Bulma and Yajirobe still on his back.
Meanwhile, the remaining Z Fighters arrive at North City and decide to split up in their search. Dr. Gero runs toward his lab but a nearby hunter takes a shot at him thinking him to be a deer. When Dr. Gero retaliates, Krillin is able to close in on his location but is attacked by surprise and easily defeated. Dr. Gero attempts to kill Krillin but see's a nearby Piccolo and chooses not to draw his attention and heads to his lab however Krillin manages to follow him to his laboratory and signals the others.
While the Z Fighters try to break in, Dr. Gero activates Android 17 and Android 18, who are not inclined to be under his control. Android 17 steals the deactivation switch from Dr. Hero's hand as Vegeta blasts down the door to the lab. The Z-Fighters come face to face with the Androids that Future Trunks had warned them about.
