Added by Jeangabin666Goku is fighting with Mr. Popo. Goku loses once again. Mr. Popo sends Goku back in time to train more using the Time Room. Krillin, Tien Shinhan, Yamcha, and Chiaotzu are training by hauling boulders. Tien is upset by the thought that he will never beat Goku again. In the past, Goku meets the young Master Roshi and his rival, the young Crane Hermit. Goku battles Roshi's Master Mutaito and learns about the concept of spirit energy. Goku learns from Master Mutaito how to harness his spirit energy.

Added by Jeangabin666Back in the present, Tien contemplates visiting Korin Tower in order to train as Goku once had. During an incident where the Crane Hermit kidnaps Fanfan, Roshi's love interest, Goku gets angry and manages to use his spirit energy successfully. After that though, he cannot reproduce the energy.

Dialogue Edits
Edit
- In the Japanese version, after Fanfan is rescued, Roshi says he will train seriously to surpass Goku and Fanfan says she will support him in this. In the Dub, Roshi tries to take credit for Goku's firesplitting technique and Fanfan mentions she was not unconscious the whole time.
Trivia
Edit
- It is implied that Master Roshi did not become perverted until well into his older years. This is certainly contradicted in this episode by his efforts to peep on Fanfan while she is bathing. This creates a bit of a plothole, as it would make it impossible for him to have ridden the Flying Nimbus Korin gave him as a teenager.
- Another plothole is regarding how Mutaito defeated Goku when he failed to defeat King Piccolo (though it is worth noting that later, in Pendulum Room Peril, Mr. Popo implies the people encountered in the past are not real, but merely illusions). Another reason could be that is that his age and body began to gotten older and slower a few years later before he fought King Piccolo.
- Master Shen's cronies of choice resemble the Bullies of the Orin Temple.
