Episode Summary

There is still time to stop Emperor Pilaf, but the heroes are unfortunately trapped by a wall. Thanks to their shape-shifting powers, Puar and Oolong escape and move it to the Dragon Balls. Oolong's quick interruption gets Shenron's attention and a wish for a comfortable pair of underwear is made. The Dragon Balls are promptly scattered around the world again unable to be used for one year. Pilaf is enraged and intends to kill the trapped heroes in the morning. Goku and the full moon, however, lead to bigger problems for everyone.moreless

    "A Wish to the Eternal Dragon" see's Oolong save the day. Oolong stops the evil Emperor Pilaf from taking over the world by changing his wish to the Eternal Dragon. The rest of the episode sees our heroes trying to escape from Pilaf's castle. Pilaf catches them and then locks them in a special cell. Here we see Goku's character develop quite a lot. We find out how his grandfather was killed and another of his secrets. This is a great episode which keeps the audience on edge and entertained. We also find out what happens to the Dragonballs (1 year???) Does that mean we've got a whole year of filler episodes to come?? I hope not!
