Editing Paragus (Dragon Ball Z) (section)

=== ''Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan'' ===
Paragus devises an elaborate plan to exact revenge on the Vegeta family. He lures Prince Vegeta to a desolate world, naming it ''New Planet Vegeta'', positioning it in the path of the massive ''Comet Camori'', which is destined to destroy the planet and everyone on it. Paragus selects this barren world for his scheme because he intends to use Earth as his base of operations and cannot afford any risk of damaging it. To further deceive Vegeta, Paragus has Broly enslave the Shamoian people after devastating their home planet, forcing them to construct a palace on New Planet Vegeta to make it appear more convincing. It's implied that Broly used his Super Saiyan form during this invasion, amplifying the illusion of Paragus' control over him.

During this time, Paragus murders one of his soldiers, Moah, when the latter expresses fear after discovering Paragus' true plan to sacrifice everyone on the planet to Comet Camori. Trouble arises when Broly encounters Goku, triggering suppressed trauma from their shared infancy. Broly begins to slip out of Paragus' control, which deteriorates further with each subsequent interaction. Paragus' fears are realized when his plan is exposed to Vegeta, and Broly breaks free of his mind-control crown, transforming into a berserk ''Legendary Super Saiyan''.

Realizing his ambition to rule the universe through Broly is now futile, Paragus watches in horror as his uncontrollable son defeats the Z Fighters. In a desperate attempt to save himself, he tries to escape the doomed planet in a space pod, lamenting the need to abandon Broly to his fate. However, his escape is thwarted when Broly destroys the pod, killing Paragus by crushing it and hurling it into the oncoming comet. In his final moments, Paragus bitterly reflects on the cruel irony of his death: being killed by the very son who once saved his life.
