The episode starts with Goku arriving at Lord Beerus' planet to find out what he has been called for. Whis and Beerus tell him that the Omni-King wants to meet him. Goku asks if it is about the grand tournament the Omni-King was talking about. Apparently, Beerus and Whis have no idea why he wants to meet Son Goku.

However, Goku is not willing to go as the time machine is almost ready to take off, but Beerus is adamant that he must meet the Omni-King.

Meanwhile, the distance between Beerus' planet and the Omni-King's palace is quite far and Whis would take close to two days to reach. They decide to seek Kaioshin's help to teleport them to his palace.

Beerus reminds Goku that his behavior will decide the fate the universe as an angry Omni-King will not think twice before destroying the universe including Beerus himself.

Elsewhere, the work on the time machine is over and it has been repaired. Enthusiastically, Mai rushes to inform Future Trunks, but Bulma stops her as he is resting after his sparring session with Vegeta.

Beerus warns Goku that he should not mention a word about Black Goku or the time machine. He tells Whis to look for the Kaioshin and he should be safe.

Goku is shocked to see Beerus concerned about a Kaioshin. Whis explains that a God of Destruction and a Kaioshin are like a set. The death of any one of them would mean the death of another in the set.

Goku wonders that killing a Kaioshin would mean the death of Beerus, but he doesn't want it to end that way.

Beerus is fuming as Whis has revealed that secret to Goku.

In "Dragon Ball Super" episode 55, Zamasu and Gowasu are on planet Babari and they are looking at inhabitants murdering each other. Zamasu still feels that the mortals are not worth living. A Barbarian attack Zamasu and in return he kills him despite Gowasu's interference.

The Kaioshins return to Universe 10 and Gowasu asks for Zamasu's Potara earring. Gowasu is disappointed by Zamasu's actions and he explains that the killing of the Barbarian might affect the history.

Elsewhere, on the Kaioshin realm of Universe 7, they are amazed that the Omni-King has invited Goku. The Omni-King's palace has only been visited thrice by the Elder Kaioshin while Kibito has never visited the palace.

Goku is reminded again by everyone that he should behave himself in front of the Omni-King and he gets annoyed by the constant reminders.

The Kaioshin uses his teleportation technique to take Goku and Whis to the palace. A short man with white hair welcomes them and he looks like Whis. He is the Grand Priest. Whis and the Kaioshin greet the Grand Priest and Goku looks confused.

Whis tells the Grand Priest that they did not have enough time for him to make Goku change his attire. But, the Grand Priest is not concerned about his clothes.

The Grand Priest takes them inside the palace. Goku tells Whis that the man looks quite strong. Whis tells him that the Grand Priest is one of the five strongest people in all the universes. Goku expresses his desire to fight but Whis rejects his desire.

They meet the Omni-King who is sitting on his throne. The Omni-King announces that he wants to be Goku's buddy. Goku wonders if this is why he was summoned to his palace. The Kaioshin assures that Goku would be happy to be Omni-King's friend.

Omni-King calls Goku as Son Goku but he tells him that he can call him Goku. Omni-King wants to know what he wants to call him and he said, Omni Chan or Zen-Chan.

Omni-King wants to play with him, but Goku tells him that he has some urgent work to do and he would return to play with him. He promises that he would bring a friend with him to play.

Goku tells him that his palace is kind of boring and he should come to planet Earth. The Omni-King gives him a button that can be used to call him.

Goku, Kaioshin and Whis return to Beerus' planet and tell Beerus about the episode. Beerus gets the shock of his life after he learns that Goku calls the Omni-King - Zen-Chan.

Back in Universe 10, Gowasu could tell by looking at Zamasu's tea that his heart is clouded. According to Gowasu, there should be a balance between good and evil.

During the episode, Bulma unveils the time machine and Goku, Vegeta and Future Trunks embark on their journey.

Towards the end of "Dragon Ball Super" episode 55, Trunks looks at Mai's cap lying on the ground but her body is not there. Meanwhile, a group of attackers fires at Goku and the episode ends.
