[Mai's story was only proving to be more and more confusing to Gohan as she gives more information. She somehow knows Goku, but she's from Trunks' future timeline, where Goku had been dead for over 20 years. What, did she meet him when she was a toddler? ...Knowing him, that was actually a possibility.
He'll just choose not to think about that for now, and instead focus just on this piece of information. So she's an ally of Trunks in the future?
Gohan offers a smile, but there's a tinge of sadness to it.]
Trunks actually still has some friends in the Future timeline, that's good to hear. I was worried he's been struggling alone all this time.
[And if she's Trunks' friend, there's a piece of information he feels he owes her, then. He's not sure how much Trunks would have told her about his timetraveling.]
Trunks traveled to my time seven years so he could prevent the Android attacks. He wanted to change the future, but it didn't really work out that way. Instead, what he did created an alternate timeline, my timeline. So... Thanks to Trunks, I have a future now.
