(...and?)
(Scene opens on Frieza's throne room. Frieza is drinking. Zarbon enters.)
Zarbon: We've got another report of an attack Master Frieza.
Frieza: (annoyed) Where is it this time?
Zarbon: On a backwater planet called Titania. Our ships have engaged their army in space.
Frieza: Tell me Zarbon, did you ever retrieve those planets that we lost?
Zarbon: I'm afraid not Master Frieza.
Frieza: And why is that?
Zarbon: We can clear their aerial units, but their ground forces just keep coming.
Frieza: How can that be? They have to stop coming sometime.
Zarbon: We've discovered the reason why. One of our units picked up an odd disturbance in the communications channel. We sent some satellites to investigate, and we found some sort of portal device.
Frieza: Portal, eh? Have we obtained one of these portals yet?
Zarbon: Of course, Master Frieza! As soon as we found it, we sent a recovery force at it. Made quite a bloody heap of it.
Frieza: What have you determined about it?
Zarbon: It's inter-dimensional. It's made of household materials, so to speak, except for one piece.
Frieza: Which is?
Zarbon: It’s made of a highly unstable element called Cabuondium. It's rather rare. I told the men to start stockpiling it to make it harder to obtain.
Frieza: Hmm...if you have the portal, why haven't you taken the planets back?
Zarbon: They've been preparing for this assault for quite some time. They've also been stockpiling Cabuondium for much longer than we have. They keep building new portals on the planets. We could eventually use up their stock, but it takes very little Cabuondium to make this piece, and this battle is costing a lot of money.
Frieza: (lays back, rather bored) Anything else?
Zarbon: Oh, yes. We've had some encounters with that boy. He’s starting to gather a lot of momentum it seems. Soldiers of ours who’ve seen him in action claim that he’s invincible. There's even some crazy talk that he could rival you.
(They both can't help but burst into a quick fit of laughter)
Frieza: Ha ha. Oh, thanks Zarbon. I needed a good laugh.
Zarbon: Right. Anyway, he's been doing some major damage, and it's costing a lot of money. We could send out our elite fighters, or blow up the planets if you’d like.
Frieza: No, this little skirmish has cost too much already. I’m not willing to give up the real estate quite yet.
Zarbon: Then perhaps you'd like to deal with him yourself, Master Frieza.
Frieza: (sighs) I suppose I'll have to.
(Frieza looks lovingly at his drink)
Frieza: You know Zarbon, there's nothing quite as nice as ice...with wine...hey wait a minute, there's no ice in here! HOUSE BOY!
(Goku runs in)
Frieza: You forgot my ice!
(Frieza throws a minor ki blast at Goku. Goku instinctively dodges)
Frieza: YOU KNOW BETTER THAN TO DODGE MY ATTACKS!!!
(Frieza throws a large and painful ki blast at Goku. Goku endures the pain)
Frieza: Now go get me another drink, and don't forget the ice!
(Throws glass at him. He catches it)
Goku: Yes Frieza. Sorry sir.
(Goku leaves)
Frieza: Idiot.
