1.1.1 Dragonball GT Episode 3: The Ultimate Moneygrubbers!! Imegga, Planet
of Merchants
The story begins with our three reluctant heroes: Trunks, Goku, and Pan. They are currently flying through space in a spaceship that has lost a yet undetermined piece. Inside Goku is eating while Trunks is yelling at and chasing Pan-chan. It appears she will not return the keys to the ship and after a long struggle,
Pan drops the keys down her shirt...much to Trunks dismay. He quietly gives up muttering: I have a bad feeling about this trip already.
Back on Earth we find Bulma searching to identify the missing piece of the ship. A week has already passed and Bulma and Chi-Chi can only hope they are all safe.
Back on the ship we find Pan "cleaning"...more like terrorizing Goku with a mop. She states that since she cleaned, it's Trunks' turn to cook and Goku's turn to do the dishes! Nothing like assigning chores to unwilling participants. Pan has a tendency to call Trunks, "Trunks" and not "Trunks- san" which is actually a rather disrespectful way of referring to him. He asks her why she doesn't refer to him as Trunks-san and she asks what is wrong with just calling him Trunks. Goku and Trunks can only stare at one another...unsure of how to answer. ((I can only think that the reason she refers to him as "Trunks" is not to disrespect, but because she has a bit of a crush on him...her mannerisms would point to this.)) Just then, the ship begins to shake violently. They look out the window to see a large piece of the ship floating off. Trunks begins to panic and the other two can only look at him and wonder what it was. Flash to Bulma where she just found out what the piece was: the directional control device for the rocket! Now Bulma REALLY begins to worry. Back at the ship Trunks has calmed himself and takes control of the ship as it starts to crackle and pour out smoke from various areas. He determines they have to land on the nearest planet for repairs because it will explode if they do not. Pan begins to cry and call for her Momma and Papa and Trunks promises he'll make sure she'll be safe. Pan only replies, "I don't want your promises!" and cries for Papa some more. They crash land on the nearest planet and fall off a cliff with the ship, landing upside down. All three are safe thanks to their seat belts and breathe a very heavy sigh of relief.
Later, the three heroes find a very busy town full of hundreds of merchants selling everything you could want...and a ton of stuff you don't want. They are mobbed by a few dozen merchants peddling their wares, obviously moneygrubbers trying to take advantage of the "tourists". Goku starts eating as usual unaware of the price and the merchants quickly show them the huge bills they are already racking up! They manage to escape and find a hotel to rest...and hoping they will be safe from the crazy salesmen. They figure they can look for the ship parts after a rest. The hotel clerk is friendly and checks them in. A strange beep comes from the door as they open it but they pay it no mind, as the room is beautiful. Pan decides to take a shower, Trunks lays down on a bed to watch TV, and Goku raids the stocked refridgerator. The news shows a bunch of the natives almost worshipping an individual by the name of Don Kee and Trunks wonders if this is some sort of Communist planet. Just then, Pan comes running out in a robe telling Trunks the shower won't stop running! Trunks tries to hop out of bed but a chain had latched to him! Then, Goku comes flying into the room on a wave of food that continues to pour out of the fridge! That's when they realize everything has a pricing meter on it! Even the clocks, the TV, the lamps, and the room itsself times you and tries to keep you there! Trunks breaks the chain and says they have to get out of there...Goku, grabs a bunch of food and follows.
Next we see the three standing outside in the rain, wondering what kind of planet they've landed on. They decide to find the ship and regroup but the ship has been repossessed! They also find out that one of the Black Star Dragonballs is on this planet! Surprised, Trunks drops the dragon radar and it is quickly gobbled up by a little round robot! They catch the robot and try to make him spit it out but they find the radar has become a part of him! They bundle up the robot which seems to only say, "Gille...gille...gille!" Now they must find a way to get their ship back and find the parts they need to get off this planet...as well as find the Dragonball!
