Summary
Out in space, Jaco has sealed the evil wanted criminal Watagash away in a special container, but on the way to taking Watagash to prison, he decides to stop off at a ramen place for a quick bite. The ramen shop owner questions the logic of this, but Jaco insists everything is fine. There's no way Watagash could escape! Shortly thereafter, Watagash escapes.
On Earth, Videl and Gohan are shocked to see a commercial for the upcoming film "Great Saiyaman vs Mister Satan", starring superstar Barry Kahn as Saiyaman, idol Cocoa Amaguri as his love interest, and Mr. Satan as himself. On the phone, Mr. Satan explains how Barry approached him with the offer of making a film together, and now Satan seems into being an actor.
As Barry arrives on set, a reporter asks him why he's interested in playing a minor and now largely forgotten hero like Great Saiyaman, but Barry thinks the contrast between a has-been like Saiyaman and a star like him is precisely what makes it interesting.
Gohan, Videl, and Pan arrive on set too, and Satan introduces them to Cocoa Amaguri. But Videl has to stop him from spilling the beans about Gohan being the real Saiyaman; that might cost him his academic job! Barry turns up and tries to flirt with Videl, but she's not interested. She thinks Gohan is much cooler!
Filming starts, and Barry suggests changing the script: rather than dodging a tank, his stunt double should jump on top of it…without using wires! Everyone thinks this is absurd, but Barry insists, until finally Gohan steps in and volunteers. He figures that if he's in this movie, Pan will enjoy watching it when she grows up.
Gohan puts on the stuntman's Saiyaman costume and performs a superhuman leap onto the tank, amazing everyone, then finishes off with a classic Saiyaman speech. The director wants to officially sign Gohan up as a new stuntman, and Videl is all for it: in that suit nobody will be able to tell it's him…and seeing him as Saiyaman again has got her all excited thinking of the old days!
Returning home, Gohan worries about memorizing the script, then sees a bank robbery in progress. Kuririn (as part of his police job) is facing off with two crooks equipped with military technology. Gohan changes into his Saiyaman outfit and smashes through the wall, knocking Kuririn out in the process. The two crooks remember Saiyaman: they were ones he and Videl caught back when Saiyaman made his debut! This makes Gohan nostalgic, but the crooks want payback.
In space, Jaco confirms that Watagash has fled to Earth. In fact, it's at the scene of the bank robbery, and infects one of the crooks, making him even stronger than his partner's military armor. Yet he's still no match for Saiyaman, who knocks him out and prepares to finish him off with a Kamehameha…but, fearing collateral damage, opts for a small "Great Saiyaman Beam" instead.
The return of Saiyaman makes the news, and while reporters assume it was a promotional stunt by Barry, everyone on set has already guessed it was really Gohan. However, Bulma arrives and claims that they spare Saiyaman suit she made for the film was stolen from her lab, and that this thief must have been the one who stopped the robbery. With Gohan's secret still safe, Bulma asks him not to get carried away…but their private conversation is overheard by Cocoa.
After the day's filming, Cocoa approaches Gohan and asks him to help her practice her lines. She even wants him to fly her home, and when he objects, she reveals she knows he was really the one who stopped the robbery. To keep her quiet, Gohan indeed flies her home, dressed as Saiyaman.
Cocoa enjoys the scenery, making Gohan take the long way around so she can even see the cityscape at night. However, the two run into Jaco in his spaceship. Jaco is convinced that Saiyaman is Watagash's new host, and fires his ship's cannon to destroy him!
