Full Plot Summary

spoilers

With Frieza defeated, Goku flies to Frieza's spaceship to escape from Namek, but to no avail, since it was severely damaged by Vegeta. Goku flees from the ship as it gets swallowed by a river of lava, and is apparently trapped with no other way to escape, prompting him to scream both in frustration and despair as Planet Namek finally blows up with everything else on it, including his Capsule Corporation spaceship. Even though it looks like Goku died as a result of Namek's explosion, Bulma and the others have an idea that could work, using the Namekian Dragon Balls, once restored, to bring everyone else back - including Goku.
