HFIL is a CGI-animated webseries created and produced by Team Four Star, with animation provided by animator/Perfect Cell enthusiast DevilArtemis. It is a spinoff/sequel series to Dragon Ball Z Abridged, akin to their other DBZ-themed webseries, Dragon ShortZ.Roughly a year after his demise at the hands of Gohan's Father-Son Kamehameha, Perfect Cell reaches the end of the line to King Yemma's office in the afterlife, is deemed immeasurably sinful, and is sent deep into the bowels of Hell... except it's not quite the Hell one would expect. Given the recent string of "morally-compromised malefactors" with power levels way, way higher than the usual evil souls that go to Hell, its overseers—the twin demonic bodybuilders Goz and Mez—had to make a special place for such people to (hopefully) rehabilitate... especially after a certain spiky, long-haired Saiyan broke their soul-scrubbing machine.Welcome to HFIL! Short for the Home For Infinite Losers, this cul-de-sac deep in the bowels of Hell is home to the biggest baddies the world of DBZA has to offer... and also Raditz. Oh, and the former Namekian Grand Elder (Super Kami) Guru. Unable to utilize the full potential of his Perfect form due to a Ki-supressing ankle bracelet, and stuck sharing a house with the aforementioned Raditz and Guru, Cell must now adjust to his new suburban (after)life and deal with all the shenanigans that entails... and perhaps even be deemed good enough to leave.The first episode, Cell in a Hell, was released on March 19, 2021 as a part of TeamFourStar's Spring Showcase that day.

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_10dcbe05
comment
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: A Downplayed Trope but still notable. For all of King Cold's obvious doting Freeza simply acts like a spoiled child most of the time and almost never breaks their haughty streak. At the end of the holiday special King Cold appears to pass out from a stoke suddenly at which point Freeza is immediately distressed and concerned. Even if he never shows it he clearly cares as much about his father as his father does about him. He constantly worries that his father no longer cares about him in "Little Lord Freeza," upset that King Cold is spending more time with Cell than him.

Graceful Loser: Cell takes his death at Gohan's hands (and the others subsequent mocking of it) quite well, at least compared to Freeza, who's noticeably embarrassed and vague when asked to re-state how he died.

Power Limiter
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_1dce4748
comment
Power Limiter: All the villains kept in HFIL are required to wear nigh-indestructible Ki-blocking ankle bracelets. It's why Freeza is able to kick Cell's ass despite Cell being many times more powerful than him normally, and why Goz and Mez are in control despite, well, all the worst, most powerful Dragon Ball villains being under their care even though they got humiliated by Raditz. Curiously, it doesn't affect Guldo's time stop power, which is speculated to be either psychic or magic in nature and thus isn't blocked by the bracelet.

Breaking the Fourth Wall
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_1e7487cd
comment
Breaking the Fourth Wall: Episode 9 has the ogres tell the audience (and a very confused Cell and Freeza) about "a very special announcement after the credits". When Cell asks for elaboration, the ogres point out that there was a post-credit scene in every episode, looking directly into the "camera" while referencing the people who accidently skipped them.

 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_1f250372
comment
I Need a Freaking Drink: Jeice is very aggravated that Goz and Mez won't let anyone have beer, leaving the Ginyu Force to use Shasta soda for their beer games. In Episode 10, when Cooler is offered a bottle of wine by Dodoria, he snatches the bottle out of her hands and downs it. Cell similarly asks Zarbon to top him off after burying his face in the table in annoyance.

 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_1f7c89f6
comment
Nigh-Invulnerability: The souls of the dead are basically indestructible, meaning they can't just cut off their leg to get rid of their ankle bracelets that way. Raditz found out the hard way due to Freeza having the Ginyu force try to pull him apart. Notably this doesn't mean they Feel No Pain or they can't be hurt at all. Goz and Mez can overpower and knock out anyone who acts up too much, because of this trait.

comment
Adaptational Villainy: Super Kami Guru is in Hell for causing Namek's drought and the genocide of the Albino Namekians, events exclusive to the Abridged version of the character. Implied for the frog that Ginyu swapped bodies with on Namek, assuming Jeice is correct that the only way Guldo could be right is if the frog itself was evil enough to be damned to HFIL. Subverted when it's revealed that the frog is perfectly innocent and was simply sent to Hell in Ginyu's place before King Yemma could verify the switch.

Chekhov's Gag

Chekhov's Gag: The whole premise of the show is built upon the abandoned news from all the way back in Season 1 of Dragon Ball Z Abridged that Raditz managed to escape from King Yemma; Hell needed a way to contain villains of Raditz's strength and higher and HFIL was established.

Mythology Gag
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The name "HFIL" and its acronym "Home For Infinite Losers" come from the original Bowdlerised dub of Dragon Ball Z (they had to change it due to standards and practices not allowing Hell in a show aired on a Cartoon Network block). Freeza notes he has no idea how his species reproduces and that he never met his mother. This is a reference to how Freeza's race seems to be a One-Gender Race and there is never any explanation of how they reproduce. Raditz perks up when Cell mentions that his father was a brilliant scientist. This is a reference to how the Ocean dub claimed that Bardock, Goku and Raditz's father, was a brilliant scientist. At the start of episode 2, the song Cell is humming to himself is his canon version's Leitmotif from DBZ's Faulconer score from the original dub. The entirety of Cell and Freeza's argument, including the latter's tirade against the former's supposed perfection, is funny when one remembers that Cell owes a lot of his existence to the Executive Meddling of Toriyama's editor Yu Kondo, particularly his railroading of the Android Saga, and of Cell in particular into being more similar to Freeza, with multiple forms ending in a clean human-looking final form. When Guldo and Recoome perform a tag-team dodgeball dunk, Cell's reaction is a near-perfect recreation of the German dub's take on Cell staring down Vegeta's Final Flash, complete with him merely yelling "Oh shit". The above mentioned episode also has Freeza charging his dodgeball final attack at Cell, which, again is a near-perfect recreation of the scene where Freeza started charging an attack to destroy Planet Namek, moments before he realised Goku has a Spirit Bomb ready. It's quite possible Cell's clean victory against the Ginyus in episode 6 is a reference to a certain video game. In FighterZ the plot not only restricts everyone's power levels, much like the anklets, so everyone is roughly even but as characters Cell is a single fighter while the Ginyu force has all 5 members as a single character. Without Ginyu himself there, they would technically be an incomplete character against a whole one.

Bilingual Bonus: Zig-zagged. In episode 8, King Cold says several things to Guldo in a foreign languages, but they're completely meaningless phrases. This does suggest that King Cold, despite the confidence he delivers them with, has not even reached My Hovercraft Is Full of Eels levels of fluency.

Break the Haughty
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_2af6bbeb
comment
Break the Haughty: In the first episode alone, Cell is beaten, tossed around, forced to endure the Ginyu Force's twerking, and gets his neck snapped by Freeza, who he derided moments before as being much weaker than he is. After that, he finds that he doesn't have his own house- he's rooming with Raditz and Super Kami Guru. Even the episode's thumbnail shows him being manhandled by Goz and Mez. Cell is able to turn it around on Freeza in the second episode by revealing he knows exactly how Freeza died during the sharing circle, which sends the warlord on the defensive in their argument. Then it becomes an Exaggerated Trope in the third episode when Cell tells Freeza exactly who his killer is...or more specifically, who his killer's father is. Episode 10 breaks Freeza further when, in telling Cell about Cooler's death, King Cold inadvertently reveals that Cell killed not only Goku, but Trunks.

Adaptational Sexuality
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_2bb06191
comment
Adaptational Sexuality: In canon, Burter didn't have an established sexuality. While DBZA revealed that he was gay, it was through a flashback that Vegeta had of talking to Guldo, and the only other time Burter was seen in the show, the focus wasn't on him. Episode 2 of HFIL is the first time that the audience hears Burter admitting to everyone (quite proudly, in fact) that he's gay.

Even Evil Has Standards: Played for Laughs. After one of Guldo's pranks in episode 5 douses Cell with white and purple paint, Freeza bears witness to it and is legitimately offended, mistaking it for "whiteface". Considering one of his most notable traits is being a genocidal racist, however, pot calling the kettle black is very much applicable here.

Dinner and a Show: In Episode 10, King Cold invites everyone for "dinner" at the ogres' place, despite it only being 10 A.M. in Hell. Cold wanted to have a "family dinner" as it were with the ambassadors of the other HFIL, which results in an immensely awkward and confrontational meal between Freeza, Cell, and Cooler. Also Bojack, but that's because he's oblivious to how no one likes him.

Actor Allusion: Freeza and Cell find themselves locked inside of Guru's garage/room in Episode 9, with the two finding a keypad that can be used to unlock the door.

Voodoo Shark: HFIL in this continuity exists to rehabilitate villains (who are Raditz's level or stronger) with two successes (Cui and King Cold) and no others in the years it has existed, which means that HFIL should be much more occupied than it is. As Episode 7 reveals, King Cold graduated from HFIL two years before Cell's arrival (during the Z-Fighters' training for the androids) and was offered a job in management. King Cold also casually informs Cell that he oversees "all of the HFILs", which suggests a more complex setup than the viewer has been shown.

Characterization Marches On: Only Goz and Mez' Affably Evil attitude and Germanic accents remain. There's no trace of them originally being Hanz and Franz parodies nor is the idea that the place they put the Ginyus was a concentration camp in Goz's cameo in Episode 29. Raditz's smug Proud Warrior Race Guy attitude and overinflated image of himself has been broken down by his time in HFIL to the point where he's now a jaded Deadpan Snarker who's painfully aware of his status as a small fish in a big pond. The beginning of his (literal) fall into the rut he's found himself in is shown in Episode 2. Given the brevity of his appearances, King Cold has never been given much of a chance to become a fully explored character, in either Z or Abridged, despite by all rights being a Greater-Scope Villain as both Freeza's father and the original leader of the Freeza Force. In HFIL, King Cold gets more scenes, his relationship with Freeza is fleshed out, and there are repeated hints that he is the show's Big Bad.

Death by Adaptation
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_48c99e19
comment
In "Frognapped", after the Ogres reveal to the Ginyu Force that their captain's body has a frog's soul in it, the members celebrate believing this means Ginyu himself is still alive. Unfortunately for them, Vegeta is "eight for eight" in the Abridged canon, and the stinger shows he was dumped in the soul scrubber because they didn't know about the swap until it was too late. Even worse, in the main canon Ginyu is still alive, living past Z and eventually getting a new body... shortly before dying.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: At the end of the Christmas special, where it was revealed the entire thing was a story told by King Cold, Cell asks if King Cold just wrote fanfiction about their deaths. King Cold turns to his left, away from the group, and asked if this whole thing wasn't just fanfiction. Freeza asks if King Cold is having a stroke (as the moment is seen as Cold blankly staring out into nothing), only for said king to lose the ability to speak before passing out, meaning yes, he was having a brief bout of intense confusion in-universe.

The number that King Cold enters into the security system spells "Gevo," AKA the name of Doctor Gero's son that Android 16 was modeled after, and when active, the system lights up with the Red Ribbon Army logo.

Early-Installment Weirdness: Episode one has Freeza snap Cell's neck and him to revive later, seemingly setting up Resurrective Immortality to be in play as a source for jokes... only for it to be later revealed the next episode that the residents have bodies that are pretty much indestructible that they can't even break even if they tried. It’s minor, but Episode one is the only one in which Raditz is seen wearing a scouter.

Crazy-Prepared: The higher ups thought out everything when they came up with the HFIL idea. Malcontents have insane power levels? Use a Power Limiter to keep them from accessing the energy that makes them that strong. They try to break said limiter? It's indestructible. They get desperate enough to take off their leg so they can remove the bracelet? Won't work because the souls are indestructible. Somehow manage to escape? Bracelets have trackers so you won't be gone long. Goku used a seldom-explored cave to escape HFIL during his time in the afterlife? Block off the cave so nobody else gets out!

Raditz returns to the Abridged universe after his arc in season 1 of the previous series, that of him roaming the afterlife after breaking out of hell, was dropped. HFIL reveals his efforts crashed and burned shortly after breaking out. Super Kami Guru as well, due to being condemned for drinking all of Namek's water and shifting the blame on the albino Namekians, causing the other Namekians to commit genocide.

The Eeyore: Thus far, Raditz. He seems depressed and has been in HFIL the longest, and is the only one of the cast whose personality seems to have changed since his death. The only time he shows anything more than resignation is when he thinks Cell recognizes him. Episode 2 shows that he was more like his canon self in the past, but multiple failed escape attempts, plus the Freeza Force's goons using him as a chew toy even with the inhibitors, have made him the resigned, cynical, and bitter man he is today.

Eviler than Thou: Freeza chokes out Cell and informs him of his status as an unrepentant, child-murdering, population-enslaving galactic tyrant, before neck-snapping him.

Stating in no uncertain terms that he'll be playing his own, while Freeza will, by Cell's own words, eventually be left with two German Ogres and a whole afterlife of shame.

He points out Vegeta's genuine transformation into a Super Saiyan and the existence of the "Super Duper Saiyan" form to tell Freeza how outclassed he is, with Freeza dismissing it as nothing important.

Freeze-Frame Bonus
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_62f9d08e
comment
Freeze-Frame Bonus: In the first episode, if you look carefully in scenes before he tries to fry Goz and Mez, Cell's already wearing the ankle monitor. At the end of Episode 6, King Cold shows up at Freeza's house with the ogres as a cliffhanger. One detail is that he isn't wearing an ankle monitor, like the other MCM's. Episode 7 establishes that not only is he not an MCM, but he is effectively the ogres' boss. Near the start of Episode 7, Cell visits Raditz's bedroom to look at his wall chart of who has been in HFIL. In the background you can see a display case containing his old Saiyan battle armor, including the hole through which Piccolo fired the Special Beam Cannon which killed him. Close by is a framed picture of Bardock. The wall chart itself is an FFB, in that it details both the history of who has been in HFIL and Raditz's written observations about them. Dodoria's photo has "DORI" written on it along with a heart symbol. Freeza's photo has "ASSHOLE" written on it. A photo of Nappa bears several question marks, implying that he disappeared from HFIL when he was inadvertently wished back to life. Cell's has "RELATED?" across the picture. And King Yemma's has "MAHOGANY?". In Episode 10, when Guldo freezes time to put out the appetizers, he sticks Cell's back with a piece of paper with "Asshole" written on it.

 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_7d89315b
comment
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Episode two has Cell and Freeza give ones to each other. Freeza calls him unoriginal and manufactured, who's never made a choice because all he did was follow his programming. Cell fires back that for all Freeza's pride as a terrifying warmonger, he was killed twice so far.

Actually Pretty Funny: In Episode 2 when Cell snarks at Freeza's current form ("This was the one [Freeza] landed on?") even Goz can't help but let out a muffled chuckle. Even Freeza's amused by Cell's crack at Vegeta about being responsible for Cell looking like a "greased up bug man that smells like patchouli." When Cell snarks that "death's a bitch, and so is (Freeza)" to King Cold, Cold chuckles and remarks "a little bit".

Suckiness Is Painful
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_85bbb76c
comment
Suckiness Is Painful: Cell is horrified when the Ginyu Force starts performing their "Twerkarena" (a fusion of the Macarena and Twerking) dance, and it sets off his first serious escape attempt. Freeza later comments that merely seeing them practice said dance was "terrifying" and shudders in disgust at the thought. Keep in mind, he already knew how kooky they were in life. It seems they got even weirder in death.

Stating the Simple Solution
 HFIL (Web Animation) / int_86f4f393
comment
Stating the Simple Solution: In episode 4, the Ginyu Force speculate on why Captain Ginyu has gone "feral." Recoome and Jeice believe that he must have suffered some immense psychological trauma before he died. Guldo thinks he just swapped bodies with a frog, something that the rest find ridiculous due to the implication that the frog was evil enough to go to HFIL. Episode 6 reveals the reason the frog was condemned was due to a hasty error in judgement on King Yemma's part out of sheer disgust for Ginyu's crimes, and no one in upper management wanted to take responsibility for that screw-up. Also, the rest of the Ginyus admit they kind of knew, but were in denial.

Raditz's smug Proud Warrior Race Guy attitude and overinflated image of himself has been broken down by his time in HFIL to the point where he's now a jaded Deadpan Snarker who's painfully aware of his status as a small fish in a big pond. The beginning of his (literal) fall into the rut he's found himself in is shown in Episode 2.

Just a Machine: Discussed when Freeza begins escalating the argument in response to Cell bringing up his death. This is what manages to get Cell legitimately angry instead of arrogantly mocking or annoyed by his surroundings: Another angle is brought up when Cell brings up how Freeza only has power and controls the galactic empire - or did, rather - because King Cold allowed it. Freeza sharply retorts that Cell wouldn't know anything about parental relationships, since despite having "more DNA than a space college shower drain" Cell doesn't have a real father.

Laser-Guided Karma: After all the evil things that the cast have done, they've certainly earned all the injuries and humiliation they receive in HFIL. Mainly from one another. Case in point, Cell constantly getting harassed, stalked, bitten and creeped on by Captain Ginyu is exactly how he treated Android 17 and especially 18. He even lampshades it.

comment
Cell is able to turn it around on Freeza in the second episode by revealing he knows exactly how Freeza died during the sharing circle, which sends the warlord on the defensive in their argument. Then it becomes an Exaggerated Trope in the third episode when Cell tells Freeza exactly who his killer is...or more specifically, who his killer's father is. Episode 10 breaks Freeza further when, in telling Cell about Cooler's death, King Cold inadvertently reveals that Cell killed not only Goku, but Trunks.

comment
The Bus Came Back: Raditz returns to the Abridged universe after his arc in season 1 of the previous series, that of him roaming the afterlife after breaking out of hell, was dropped. HFIL reveals his efforts crashed and burned shortly after breaking out. Super Kami Guru as well, due to being condemned for drinking all of Namek's water and shifting the blame on the albino Namekians, causing the other Namekians to commit genocide. All the main characters save for Cell count—the last time any of the core cast appeared in DBZA was very, very early season 3 (four days shy of eight years prior to the episode's release in real time, and four years in-universe), and that was just Freeza. It's been even longer for the rest of them, since the most recent additions before that was Super Kami Guru, sent there at the tail end of season 2.

Paper Tiger: In Episode 6, Cell manages to transform into his self-destruct form despite his ki being sealed, threatening to blow up the whole cul-de-sac if the Ginyus blow up his house. Not only does he revert back with no issues once Goz and Mez catch them being out after curfew, but he later reveals that his threat was a bluff. More than likely, while swelling up to giant size is a biological function he can access without ki, he still needs the energy to have any power behind his self-destruct explosion.

A double-dose in Episode 8. King Cold greets Freeza without wearing his armor or briefs, much to his son's vocal disgust, after having asked last episode if the ogres were fine with casual nudity. King Cold says that there's literally nothing to be ashamed of, and Freeza mutters about how he still has questions about how that can be before moving onto his reason for visiting.

Continuity Nod: When Raditz is getting ready to feed Guru, he's setting up a large hamster water tube. Guru, like all Namekians, only consumes water, not solid food (and is the primary reason he's in HFIL). In that very same episode when Cell explains his origins and that his father was "a brilliant scientist" the camera quickly and briefly cuts to Raditz showing a sudden spike in interest, referencing the old Ocean dub of DBZ where Bardock was also a brilliant scientist.

Dramatic Irony: Freeza's insistence on remaining evil, thus ruining his chances of getting out of Hell, is quite ironic considering that in the original series, he was brought back to life - twice - and was alive when the first episode came out. In "Frognapped", after the Ogres reveal to the Ginyu Force that their captain's body has a frog's soul in it, the members celebrate believing this means Ginyu himself is still alive. Unfortunately for them, Vegeta is "eight for eight" in the Abridged canon, and the stinger shows he was dumped in the soul scrubber because they didn't know about the swap until it was too late. Even worse, in the main canon Ginyu is still alive, living past Z and eventually getting a new body... shortly before dying.

Verbal Salt in the Wound: In the second episode, Freeza laughs at Cell for getting killed by Gohan. Cell retaliates by not-so-subtly hinting at Freeza's humiliating dismemberment at the hands of Trunks, needling him with puns about how "dicey" it was - successfully pissing off Freeza for the first time in the series. He does it again in the third episode by guiding Freeza to the realization that he was cut into pieces by "Vegeta's overgrown sperm".

The entirety of Cell and Freeza's argument, including the latter's tirade against the former's supposed perfection, is funny when one remembers that Cell owes a lot of his existence to the Executive Meddling of Toriyama's editor Yu Kondo, particularly his railroading of the Android Saga, and of Cell in particular into being more similar to Freeza, with multiple forms ending in a clean human-looking final form.

But then you remember that, at the time at his death, Freeza was a cyborg and barely holding himself together when his sample was taken. Even moreso in the Abridged version where he kept glitching out on occasion. More direct, in episode 8. Freeza calls out King Cold for answering the door naked, but Freeza never wears any clothing.

Celestial Bureaucracy: When Raditz complains that Snake Way needs safety rails, he's told they're on back order. It's been six years. The reason why Ginyu-in-the-frog wasn't able to be understood by King Yemma? Their translator apparently got laid off due to budget cuts.

Fun with Acronyms: HFIL, of course, stands for "Home For Infinite Losers". Furthermore, the term "Morally-Compromised Malefactors" is referred as "MCM". King Cold's official title in his managerial position is "Honorable Atonement Director and Enrichment Specialist", or HADES. Cell lampshades the trend by this point.

Fan Disservice: Episode 8 has this from King Cold and Zarbon, which is completely played for comedy. Early on, King Cold is seen walking around the Ogres' house and answering the door in the nude — complete with Barbie Doll Anatomy on his crotch, which he lampshades — and later on, we see Zarbon's naked ass and (thankfully blurred) erect penis when he misinterprets Freeza's earlier request for wood.

comment
Shout-Out: Cell is not sure if Goz and Mez are supposed to be "brothers, or lovers, or both"; much like Akbar and Jeff from Life in Hell. Cell's statement that "Hell is literally other people" is a direct reference to Garcin's famous line from No Exit. Episode 2 references William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, albeit somewhat misquoted. Episode 4 reveals that the Ginyu Force have a Marvel vs. Capcom 2 cabinet. Episode 8 has Raditz humming a few bars of "I Feel Fantastic" by Jonathan Coulton. Episode 9 has a bit with Freeza and Cell trying to unlock the door using a keypad. A similar joke can be seen in LittleKuriboh's Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series, where Yami Marik/Melvin has trouble trying to unlock a door. Both Freeza and Melvin try brute forcing the combination to open it, with Melvin even entering all the way to 9999 in a later episode. You almost expect Freeza to yell out "THIS DOOR IS A BITCH!" like Melvin did in LK's show.

Series Continuity Error: The dead characters lack halos over their heads, as opposed to how they did back in the abridged series (and canon). No explanation for this is given. Raditz's armor in Episode 2 is normal, without the hole of Piccolo's attack that killed him, but in Episode 7 in the brief moment you can see the armor again in Raditz's room in HFIL the armor has a hole made by the Special Beam Cannon.

Non-Action Guy: Despite having a power level of 18,000, thus being much stronger than Freeza's average Mook and being powerful enough to break the Soul Scrubber like Raditz, Cui is mentioned as not being in HFIL because his greatest sin was hating Vegeta. Meaning that he likely never even exterminated a single planet while working for the PTO since Cell was admitted for absorbing several cities' worth of people on Earth.

Cassandra Truth: When discussing the ogres' accents, Freeza tells Cell that it grows on you, only to admit that he was lying. However, it actually does grow on Cell, and by episode 3, he thanks them in German himself. Guldo figures out that "Ginyu" is really a frog their captain swapped bodies with, but the rest of the team don't believe him due the ridiculousness of a frog being evil enough to be damned to Hell. Episode 6 reveals that Guldo was right, but the frog was an innocent victim of an uncaring Celestial Bureaucracy, and the other Ginyus admit they were in denial about the captain not really being Ginyu.

Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing: Super Kami Guru wins the dodgeball match without ever moving or even waking up until the very end. For most of the match, the other players simply ignore him until he's the last player on Cell's team, but when Freeza tries to finish off Cell's team by taking him out, the ball gets caught in Super Kami Guru's considerable gut, which counts as a catch and allows Cell to re-enter the game. Cell then smacks Super Kami Guru awake as part of an enthusiastic thanks, causing Super Kami Guru to snort awake and causing his fat to rebound, launching the ball and hitting Freeza and then Cell, leaving Super Kami Guru as the sole winner.

Delayed "Oh, Crap!": Freeza has this reaction two episodes in a row, both courtesy of Cell. In "Sharing Circles of Hell", when Cell shares that he was killed by Gohan, this leads to him becoming quite the laughingstock, especially from Freeza… that is until Cell subtly reveals that he knows who really killed Freeza, which the latter had been purposely vague about. Then in "DodgeBall Z", after the dodgeball game is over, Cell and Freeza have a private confrontation where the former nonchalantly reveals the true identity of Trunks, much to Freeza's growing horror once it fully sinks in.

Static Character: An actual plot point since HFIL is all about rehabilitating MCMs and changing their old ways, but Freeza in particular doesn't seem to give a speck of a damn about it and remains as sadistic and ruthless in HFIL as he was in life, not even pretending he'd be willing to change, even though he knows this won't aid him in escaping HFIL in the least. This is something that both Cell and King Cold duly notes as well.

Another angle is brought up when Cell brings up how Freeza only has power and controls the galactic empire - or did, rather - because King Cold allowed it. Freeza sharply retorts that Cell wouldn't know anything about parental relationships, since despite having "more DNA than a space college shower drain" Cell doesn't have a real father.

Running Gag: Since they're literally in Hell, or a specific division of it at least, Cell's gotten into the habit of saying "Why/What the here" instead of "hell." Freeza also has one in Episode 9, though he messes it up by saying "What the here are you doing hell?" Goz or Mez will say something (often in German) only for the other one to explain what it means. Cell always responds with "Then just say that!" One person refuses to do chores. Another questions why they even have a chore wheel. Caddyshack II being a horrible movie.

Brick Joke: A double-dose in Episode 8. King Cold greets Freeza without wearing his armor or briefs, much to his son's vocal disgust, after having asked last episode if the ogres were fine with casual nudity. King Cold says that there's literally nothing to be ashamed of, and Freeza mutters about how he still has questions about how that can be before moving onto his reason for visiting. Also in Episode 8, when asking Freeza to have Zarbon get wood, he asks that Freeza specify lumber. At the end of the episode, Zarbon enters Freeza's room with both the lumber and a lack of pants.
