Although reduced to his "second form," Cell proves to still be a force to reckon with as he resumes his battle with Gohan. The desperate Cell's game plan now seems to be to blow himself up -- and the rest of the world in the process. With only ten seconds remaining until doomsday, it is up to Z-Fighter Goku to sacrifice himself for the sake of all others. But two big surprises await all the combatants as this episode hurtles to a conclusion. "A Hero's Farewell" was shown in Japan in 1993, and in America on December 19, 2000.
