Episode 26, "The Plot is Smashed! The Counterattack, Vegeta vs Zarbon" or, "Appule Sauce"
*****SPOILERS*****

Gohan finds the Dragon Ball Vegeta hid underwater, and flies back towards were Bulma is. Vegeta finds Kuririn, but Zarbon finds Vegeta. Vegeta combats Zarbon again, but this time Vegeta has he advantage, and kills Zarbon.
Comments:
Wow, Vegeta really makes Freeza look like a fucking idiot in this episode. Not only did Freeza provide a healing up, but now Vegeta is much stronger and most of the Dragon Balls are in his posession, thanks to them keeping them in plain view. All it took was a little trick from Vegeta, and he's way, way ahead of the game. This must have been one of Vegeta's best days ever.
Of course, this also must have been one of Freeza's worst, and certainly Zarbon's. And poor Appule. Poor, poor Appule. All that guy did was heal Vegeta, and he gets massacred for it. Such a cruel fate for a sparkling pillar of the henchman community. Funeral services were held in the late afternoon and Freeza spoke of him highly, saying, "Oh, was he that purple fellow? He always served me my wine at just the right time." Our thoughts are with his family.
I like that the Dragon Ball Gohan found was the four-star ball. I mean, it wasn't the same four-star ball from Earth, but it still has some significance, though inherited.
What the hell is Bulma's problem? Oh, Mr. Popo isn't good enough for her, but Zarbon is? Stuck up bitch. Well, now Zarbon's dead, and I'm sure nobody gives a shit. Except maybe Bulma, who will be fishing his dead body out of the sea and straddling it like the slut she is.
Overall Score:
3.5 out of 5 (R.I.P., Appule)
Appule
(Episodes 25-26)
Like a candle in the wind...
