Summary

With Gohan and Goten under his power, Baby decides to battle and take Vegeta over. Meanwhile, out in space, Goku is worried, but it is not about the Black Star Dragon Balls. He is wondering where Baby is hiding.

Vegeta and Bulla together — Vegeta and Bulla in their hovercar

Back on Earth, Goten has fallen ill. Chi-Chi, Videl, and Gohan are watching over him, but then Baby senses Vegeta and decides to fly off after him. Vegeta is on the road with Bulla, returning from shopping. Bulla has bought a lot of new clothes with Vegeta's money, and she plans on doing a fashion show when she gets home. When two men drive up in a hovercar next to Vegeta and begin flirting with Bulla, Vegeta loses his temper and pulls up beside them. He pulls their steering wheel off the car and makes them fly into the ocean.

GohanvsVegeta — A Baby-possessed Gohan attacks Vegeta

Further down the road, Gohan flies in front of their car. He destroys most of Bulla's clothes, so Vegeta gets out confronting Gohan and sends Bulla to their house in the car so he can confront Gohan alone and Bulla tells Vegeta to make sure Gohan has money to pay for the damages to their car and her stuff before she leaves. After Bulla leaves, Vegeta realizes that Gohan is not Gohan, so he confronts Baby. Baby reveals that he is a parasite that the Tuffles created before they were destroyed on Planet Vegeta, and now it is his job to reform the Tuffle race by taking over other bodies. Earth is his first target, but then he plans on spreading to the entire universe. Vegeta also discovers it was his father that destroyed the Tuffle race, so Baby has decided to make Vegeta his number one target for revenge. Vegeta powers up to Super Saiyan and begins fighting, and he is winning. Gohan alone is not strong enough to defeat Vegeta, so Baby calls for help. Back at Bulma's place, Goten wakes up. He remembers being on a date, but nothing after that, so he decides to get a drink of water. After the water enters his system, he starts feeling massive pains. It ends up that Baby still controls Goten, so Baby makes Goten fly to assist in the battle.

Baby on vegeta's cheek — Baby appears on Vegeta's cheek

Goten arrives at the battle site and offers Vegeta his help. Vegeta acts the part of the arrogant Saiyan and declines, so Goten flies up to a higher level, and when Vegeta has his back turned, he fires an energy blast that manages to cut Vegeta's cheek. Vegeta realizes that both Goten and Gohan are under Baby's power, so he powers up to full power to knock them out. Just as Vegeta reaches his maximum power, Baby shoots out of Gohan and enters Vegeta's cuts to go inside of his body. Vegeta powers down and goes over to make sure Gohan and Goten are not hurt too much. Then he starts hearing a voice in his head. Baby explains that he has the ability to multiply in one's blood stream, and that he now controls Vegeta. To prove that he stays in one's blood stream afterwards, he has Gohan and Goten join him. Although, Vegeta resists Baby longer than the others he was eventually taken over. Baby states that he will take spread his control over the entire Universe after seizing Earth and killing Goku.

Meanwhile, Trunks, Giru, Pan, and Goku have reached the icy planet Polaris, searching for the final Dragon Ball. Goku falls down a hole, and when he comes out he has the Two-Star Dragon Ball. The warriors decide to head for Earth, but what plans will Baby have in store for them?
