EPISODE SUMMARY - PART 1

As the episode opens, we are shown a flashback in which Yusei was dueling. He has Junk Warrior on his field, but suddenly cowered a bit, as we see someone stepping up. It turns out to be Jack, and Yusei stares back at him. At the same time, Rally, Taka, Blitz, and Nerve stand in the sidelines, watching the duel. A piece of text appearing shows that this duel took place 2 years ago, in what seems to be the old Satellite plant where Yusei and his friends lived, as we also see that Jack has Mad Demon out on his field.

"You can't defeat me", Jack told Yusei.

Yusei's face stiffens a bit, as he asks back, Because you're King?", to which Jack smiles before saying, "That's right. Because I am King! Now, come on! Battle!".

Without hesitating, Yusei uses Junk Warrior to attack. As Junk Warrior was about to make a move, however, it was stopped by chains that surrounded its entire body, much to Yusei's surprise. Jack smiles before revealing his trap card, [Shadow Spell ~ Yami No Jyubaku - Permanent Trap: Select 1 face-up monster on your opponent’s side of the field. Decrease the ATK of the selected monster by 700 points. The monster cannot attack or change its battle position. When the selected monster is destroyed or removed from the field, this card is also destroyed].

Jack said that as long as this trap remained face-up on the field, Yusei's monsters would be unable to move. He sicks his Mad Demon on Yusei's Junk Warrior, declaring its "Bone Splash" attack, thus destroying Junk Warrior.

Note: In accordance to Shadow Spell's OCG effect, Junk Warrior's attack power was decreased to 1600 (2300-700), thus making it easier for Mad Demon to destroy it.

With Yusei only having 300 LP left, it eventually decreased to 0 (300+1600-?: Mad Demon must have at least 1900 ATK). He fell onto his knees and slammed his fist onto the ground, upset about his defeat. Rally, Taka, Blitz, and Nerve were all shocked to see that Yusei lost the duel, Rally asking if Yusei really lost. Jack walked closer to Yusei, who still had his fist on the floor, and told him, "usei, a duel can't be won with monsters alone". This seemed to add more insult to his injury, as Yusei stared back at him with his angry eyes.

As we see an overhead view of Neo Domino City, it seems that the city itself is constructed in a hierarchical society. At the top of a building close to the sea, there is a large mansion with a garden and riding field. Jack is standing at a window, holding a card, and looking at the ocean, as we see a strange mark on his arm (a Dragon's Birthmark). Jack looks at the card, and it is a Synchro Monster, Stardust Dragon. He stares at it intently, as a person behind him starts to speak. His name is [Rex Godwin], and he asks whether a person of the King's caliber (Jack) is dealing with a case of nostalgia.

As Rex finishes, we see that Jack is looking towards Satellite (a plant), the island where Yusei and his friends currently live, across the sea. Jack admits that he used to live in that "dump", to which Rex replies that Jack is an individual chosen by the stars, and so it would be better for him to forget about that dark abyss. Jack suddenly turns around and throws the Stardust Dragon card into a deck on a table. Rex is surprised, as Jack says that there's no way he could just forget it. He says that he thinks of his old days at Satellite as just a stifling disgrace, adding that it would be best if societies like that died out.

Rex tells Jack that it can't happen, adding that Neo Domino City counts on Satellite. We see an old plant where junk is dispensed onto a conveyor belt, as Rex adds that Satellite is the society that supports the prosperity of the chosen ones. The junk is moved into a factory where many lower-class people, including kids and adults, are working. Rex continues, saying that those who live in Satellite are used for the sole purpose of recycling all the trash thrown away by the residents of Neo Domino City, adding that nothing in this world is truly unnecessary.

"The fact that you, the King, used to live in Satellite," Rex says, " is an ordeal given from God. That's what I believe." Jack repeats his words of an ordeal, as he looks at the mark on his arm. Rex says that the only one who has managed to come this far from Satellite is Jack, the King. It is because of this, he says, that he was chosen by the stars.

Meanwhile, at Satellite, Rally stands in the underground subway, holding a stopwatch. Rally is looking towards the tunnel past him, waiting in anticipation, when Yusei suddenly passes by him on his D-Wheel before screeching to a halt. Rally looks at the stopwatch and becomes excited, running over to Yusei, whose D-Wheel is still smoking.

"Awesome! Your best time yet!", he says to him. As Yusei looks at the stopwatch, Rally says that Yusei should be able to cakewalk through the pipeline now.

Note: Yusei will talk more about Satellite's pipeline later in the episode.

Yusei agrees, as Rally asks if tonight's the night, as Yusei says that they'll try again, asking him to time him. Yusei puts his helmet's visor over his face, and speeds ahead, to Rally's amazement.

At the factory, there are people who seem to be working on material junk thrown away by the residents in Neo Domino City. Blitz, Nerve, and Taka are carrying many boxes of trash, as Blitz complains about how the city folk put out this much trash, and Nerve tells him to stop complaining, adding that this helps put food on their table. Taka is following both of them, walking and stumbling as though his boxes are heavy. Nerve tells Taka to be careful, and Taka says that he knows it. In front of them, are [Uryu] and his gang sitting on a nearby couch. The wide-haired one points his index finger up and lets out a weird laugh, as Uryu smiles. Blitz, Nerve, and Taka walk past them, but Uryu trips Taka and makes him drop all of his boxes. Blitz and Nerve call out his name, throwing all of their boxes aside to hurry and see if Taka's all right.

Taka grimaces in pain, as Uryu smirks and chuckles, saying that he's sorry because his foot got caught. Uryu's friend, the purple-haired guy, smiles and says that it's because Uryu's legs are too long, adding that he has to be careful with them. The wide-haired guy points his long index finger up again and chuckles, as Uryu gives a stupid excuse, saying that he thought something reeking of trash was coming towards them. He begins to comment that Taka and co. were born and raised in Satellite when Nerve cuts him off, saying that it goes for Uryu and his group as well, asking about the mark on Uryu's cheek. This gets Uryu mad, and so he stands up and asks if Nerve would like him to teach him about it, grabbing him by the neck and punching him in the face.

Note: The mark on Uryu's cheek is the same as the mark on Rally's face. It's the criminal mark that the security attaches onto people to keep track of them and their location.

We suddenly see Nerve's face, and a bandage being placed on his wound, as Nerve grimaces in pain. Everyone's back in Yusei's base, sitting in the living room while Yusei works on his D-Wheel's maintenance. Rally comments that everyone must've gotten whipped, as he places more bandages on Nerve's cheek.

"Freaking Uryu...I heard he stirred up some trouble in the city, so he was sent here," Nerve says.

He adds that Uryu always boasts that he's from the city, and so he picks fights with the residents of Satellite. Blitz comments that Uryu just likes to tell everyone that they're different, then turns to Yusei to ask how his D-Wheel is holding up. Before Yusei has a chance to answer, Rally answers for him by saying that it couldn't be better, adding that he got his fastest time yet today. Nerve comments that it doesn't sound half bad, as Yusei says that it's all thanks to Rally. Rally thanks Yusei as well, saying that security hasn't been after him since the time he stole a new chip for Yusei (episode 1). Rally promises Yusei that he won't steal again, and Yusei nods his head in response.

Nerve seems to be in shock at how there seem to be guys in Security that can be reasoned with, as Blitz adds that any self-respecting duelist would uphold their end of the bargain in a duel. However, Yusei seems annoyed to hear that, telling his friends to not call that guy (Ushio) a duelist. But, he says, for a dog of the establishment, it seems he can accept his losses.
Note: It seems that Yusei won't accept Ushio as a true duelist because of how he keeps calling everyone "trash".

At the top of the security center in the city, Ushio is looking in awe at a [Special Pursuit Deck] that he got from his boss, saying that it seems really interesting. The boss comments that there have been many people in Neo Domino City misusing D-Wheels and running wild lately. As a countermeasure, the mobile unit known as the Duel Chasers was formed. The Special Pursuit deck is the custom deck they use.

Ushio asks if he is going to give this deck to him, to which he replies that he's heard about Ushio having recently been defeated by a D-Wheeler and having paid for the stolen item using his salary. Ushio calls it "Duelist Etiquette", and the boss says it's all fine and it sits right with them (Yusei and co.), but he adds that Ushio is a part of Security before his being a duelist. Ushio understands, but he adds that if he sees "that guy" this time, he won't let the same thing as before happen again, now that he has the Special Pursuit deck. Ushio salutes his boss before turning around. On his way out, he tells the people in the controller room to let him know if Yusei's D-Wheel reappears.

It has become night, and at the underground subway, Yusei is still working on his D-Wheel's maintenance. Taka wonders how Jack will react, and Rally asks if Yusei's going to duel Jack. Yusei replies that he wants to get his card back, and that's it. He considers it everyone's card. Nerve agrees, saying that everybody wanted to see that dragon. Taka brings up the Riding Duel that Yusei hacked into the city's system to show them, saying that it shocked the heck out of them.

One day in the past, Yusei was showing his friends a riding duel match on screen. "We couldn't believe that things like D-Wheels, advanced versions of Duel Disks, existed in the city," Taka says.

Watching the riding duel, everyone seemed to be amazed. At that time, it seems that Jack appeared to be a member of their gang, standing and watching the game on the screen, behind everyone. And when Yusei built a D-Wheel, Rally says, everyone was impressed. We then see Yusei riding on his D-Wheel, eventually summoning Stardust Dragon. Blitz agrees with Rally, saying that when that dragon soared into the air, it made his heart race. Rally says that everybody's dream came true by seeing this dragon, and we see Rally running towards Yusei. However, as we see Jack standing alone, separate from the others, Taka says that Jack was already plotting to steal Yusei's D-Wheel and card. We then see Jack riding the stolen D-Wheel along the underground pipeline to escape from Satellite.

Note: It seems that this is the reason why Yusei had to build this new Red D-Wheel: to escape from Satellite and follow Jack through the same pipeline that he did.

Rally tells everyone that this D-Wheel is pretty awesome itself, adding that it can get through the pipeline in 2 minutes. Taka gets very excited, asking if it really can do it in 2 minutes. Yusei explains that he did a simulation, making Taka ask if Yusei has hacked them again. Yusei replies that the Security Division has weak security. We then see what is on Yusei's laptop screen, showing us and his friends a layout of the city and Satellite plant on screen. We see the ocean between the two, and the pipeline under the sea by which the two are connected.

Yusei says that once a month, at midnight, the pipeline is shut down for internal maintenance. It takes 3 minutes until the pipeline's automatic controls finish the maintenance and garbage starts flowing out again. He adds that if he's able to bust through the maintenance hatch before that time, he can make it to the outside. Everyone becomes shocked at how much thought Yusei's put into this, as Blitz starts to talk to Yusei. But he decides to stop himself, saying that he won't say another thing, and will instead keep his fingers crossed for him.

Suddenly, we see feet approaching, and a voice saying that they've found Yusei and co. We hear that same weird laugh from before, and we then see that it's Uryu and his gang, as Uryu says that he's here to return the favor. The wide-haired guy emerges from behind Uryu and laughs, as Yusei looks fiercely at Uryu. The purple-haired guy tells Yusei that they caught all sorts of hell for the earlier mess, and took a hit to their pay, to top it off. As the wide-haired guy laughs again, Uryu walks closer, saying that he just has to return the favor. Nerve steps up front to face Uryu, who asks if that's a D-Wheel in front of him. Nerve replies that it's none of his business, and Uryu comments that a bunch of Satellite punks like them don't deserve to have D-Wheel. The purple-haired guy adds that it's a good treasure being wasted, and the wide-haired guy laughs again. Uryu says it'd be a shame if it went to waste, telling them to give it to him as an apology for causing him so much trouble.

Yusei gets up, giving Uryu a flat-out "No!". He stares at Uryu with a fierce look, and Uryu asks if Yusei really is its D-Wheeler. He asks if he can even duel, stirring laughter from his cohorts, as he asks Yusei if he'd like him to teach him. Putting the D-Wheel at stake, Uryu challenges Yusei to a duel. Uryu extends his left arm, as his purple-haired cohort attaches a duel disk onto his arm, and Uryu turns it on.

Nerve says that Yusei shouldn't get involved with him, but as he does, Yusei puts away the deck on his wrist and puts it in its deck box, as he takes out another deck and sets it into his blank deck slot on his arm, much to Nerve's surprise.

The D-Wheel's mechanical voice says, Format Out", as the Duel Disk on it becomes detachable. Yusei then attaches that Duel Disk to his arm, impressing Uryu, who asks if it's a hybrid. Taka reminds Yusei that he has no time for this now (Yusei has a plan to work out tonight).

"These guys...they laughed at our dreams...", Yusei says. "Dreams, huh?", Uryu asks, calling him a dirty Satellite inhabitant. He then tells Yusei to follow him, leading him and the others to the other side of the subway, where they will have their duel. The two set their Duel Disks, and then proceed to start the duel.

Note: Yusei appears to have 2 decks. One of them is used for a riding duel, in which only Speed Spell cards can be used. In a riding duel, the Speed World field spell is applied, and only Speed Spell cards can be used on this field. All other spell cards can't be used. The other deck is the one he commonly uses on a ground duel, and so it doesn't require any Speed Spell cards. That is the deck he's chosen to use against Uryu.


EPISODE SUMMARY - PART 2

1st Turn - Uryu

With a shout of "Duel!" coming from Yusei and Uryu, the duel begins, and their 4000 LP count appears. Uryu chooses to make the first move as he draws a card. He grabs a card from his hand and summons [Chainsaw Insect - 4/2400/0: If this card attacks or is attacked, your opponent draws 1 card at the end of the Damage Step] onto the field in attack position. Everyone is shocked, and Taka notes that it's a level-4 monster with 2400 ATK. Blitz adds that Uryu's already creating some extreme pressure.

Next, Uryu activates the Permanent spell card, [Antlion's Vengeance ~ Arijigoku No Houfuku - Permanent Spell: When a monster is destroyed and sent to the Cemetery, that monster's owner receives 800 points of damage], creating a swirling hole on the floor. He explains that when a monster is destroyed and sent to the cemetery, it inflicts 800 points of damage to its controller. Taka realizes what it means, and Blitz adds that if Yusei's or Uryu's monsters are beaten, their LP will be reduced.

"That kind of magic is highly risky, even to yourself!", he then says. Nerve says that Uryu feels that sure of himself in playing it. Uryu ends his turn here, saying that he's going to show Yusei just how scary his Power-Insect deck can be. The purple-haired guy says that he's the best, calling him Uryu-san, and the wide-haired guy gives a weird cheer that sounds like his weird laugh.

2nd Turn - Yusei

And so Yusei declares his turn, drawing a card. He summons the [Shield Warrior - 4/800/1600: This effect can only be activated during the Damage Calculation by removing this card in your Graveyard from play. The monster you control cannot be destroyed by that battle]. He then sets a card to end his turn. Uryu calls him a "big fat chicken" for putting a shrimp like Shield Warrior in Defense position. The purple-haired guy says it's perfect for a laugh, and the wide-haired guy gives him his weird laugh.

3rd Turn - Uryu

Uryu then declares his turn, drawing a card, and summons [Pinch Hopper ~ Daida Butta - 4/1000/1200: When this card on your side of the field is sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Insect-Type Monster from your hand] onto the field in attack position.

He then sends an insect monster, Metal Armored Bug, from his hand to the cemetery to activate the spell card, [Battle-Insect Guise ~ Tochuu Kasou - Spell: {Discard 1 Insect-type monster from your hand. Add 1 Insect-type monster from your deck into your hand. Then, you can destroy 1 Insect-type monster on your side of the field.}] from his hand. Uryu says excitedly that it's "showtime", as his gang cheers him. Due to the effect of Battle-Insect Guise, Uryu can add an insect monster from his deck onto his hand. After doing so, he has to destroy an insect monster on the field, destroying his Pinch Hopper.

This surprises Taka, who asks if Uryu destroyed his own monster. The swirling hole left by Antlion's Vengeance on the floor begins to spin, sending a lightning shock towards Uryu, reducing his LP to 3200 (4000-800). Uryu is taken by surprise, asking why his LP decreased, and Nerve gets annoyed, saying that it's because of his permanent spell, Antlion's Vengeance. Uryu realizes it, but then says that it's nothing to worry about, telling them to look, as he grabs a card from his hand.

At this moment, Uryu activates Pinch Hopper's effect: when it's sent to the cemetery, he can special summon an insect monster from his hand. He chooses to summon [Metal Armored Bug - 8/2800/1500] to the field in attack position, noting its 2800 attack points. Even though he was affected by Antlion's Vengeance, he says, it's well worth it to call out a monster like this. The purple-haired guy calls it "losing to gain", and the wide-haired guy laughs. Taka, Blitz, Nerve, and Rally are all amazed by that strong monster, Taka saying that it's huge, and Nerve says that Uryu brought out another ridiculously-heavy hitter. Blitz sees that to use Pinch Hopper's effect, he destroyed it with Battle-Insect Guise on purpose.

Spell Card
Metal Armored Bug
Monster Card

Uryu says he's not done yet, adding that the fun's just getting started. He removes the two Insect-types in his cemetery, Pinch Hopper and Insect Knight, from the game. Doing so allows him to special summon [Devil Dozer - 8/2800/2600: This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by removing from play 2 Insect-Type monsters in your Graveyard. When this card inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points, send 1 card from the tops of your opponent's Deck to the Graveyard] from his hand onto the field in attack position.

Uryu says that his Insect Monster Army is off to battle, as Yusei stands there expectantly. First, Uryu declares Chainsaw Insect's attack against Shield Warrior. Chainsaw Insect lunges at the defending Shield Warrior, but Yusei quickly counters by opening his face-down trap card, [Scrap-Iron Scarecrow ~ Kuzutetsu No Kakashi - Trap: You can activate this when a monster on your side of the field is attacked. Negate the attack of 1 of your opponent's monsters. After activation, instead of sending this card to the Cemetery, you can place it in the Set position on your side of the field. You cannot activate this card in the turn you activate this effect], which makes Chainsaw Insect try to take it out, failing and shocking Uryu.

Yusei explains that it negates an opponent's monster's attack once. It then returns to its set position, and can't be activated again this turn. Uryu isn't pleased, but says that although Yusei may have dodged one attack, Uryu still has two more left. He then commands Metal Armored Bug to attack Shield Warrior. Metal Armored Bug crawls toward Shield Warrior, and just runs right through it. This shocks Taka and the others, and Yusei looks a bit sad, calling Shield Warrior's name. The Antlion's Vengeance hole whirls around again, as Uryu excitedly says "here it is!", meaning that because of the Permanent spell, Antlion's Vengeance, Yusei's LP will be reduced. Lightning spawns from the hole, and goes straight for Yusei, reducing his LP to 3200 (4000-800).

Uryu then declares Devil Dozer's direct attack against Yusei. Devil Dozer fires a pink beam from its mouth, which goes right for Yusei. His friends are all in shock, and Rally calls out his name, as we then see Yusei recovering from the hit, his body still smoking from the attack. This hit reduces Yusei's LP to 400 (3200-2800). Nerve thinks that this is bad, since Yusei's LP were drastically decreased. The purple-haired guy says, "Attaboy, Uryu-san!", and the wide-haired guy laughs again. "How's that?!", Uryu asks, challenging Yusei to counter-attack, if he can.

4th Turn - Yusei

Still recovering from the attack, Yusei eventually lowers his Duel Disk and declares his turn. Drawing a card, he summons [Speed Warrior - 2/900/300: This can only be activated during the Battle Phase of the turn in which this card is successfully summoned. Double this card's original attack power until the end of the Battle Phase] from his hand to the field in attack position.

Next, he plays the spell card, [Dual Summon - Spell: You can Normal Summon 1 additional time this turn. You can only gain this effect once per turn], which releases a bit of lightning, making a circle in front of him. This effect allows him to perform another normal summon this turn. Thus, Yusei normal-summons a tuner monster, [Junk Synchron - 3/1300/500: When this card is successfully Normal Summoned, you can Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower monster in your Graveyard in face-up defense mode. Any effects of an Effect Monster Special Summoned by this effect are negated] onto the field in attack position.

"Right on! Junk Synchron!", Rally says excitedly.

Yusei then tunes Junk Synchron with Speed Warrior, saying that their clustering stars call out a new force. As green rings flow down Speed Warrior's body, it gains an orange outline, as Yusei continues, saying that it will become the path that its light shines upon. A beam of green light streams down Speed Warrior's body and expands, as Yusei declares a "Synchro Summon", calling out [Junk Warrior - 5/2300/1300: When this card is Synchro Summoned, this card's attack power is increased by the total of the attack power of all Level 2 or lower monsters face-up on your side of the field] onto the field in attack position.

Note: In order to perform a Synchro Summon, the levels of the tuner and non-tuner monsters must add up to be the exact level of the desired Synchro monster (no more, no less). Once that is satisfied, the two monsters are sent to the Cemetery, and the Synchro monster can be summoned from the Extra Deck. In this case, Junk Synchron (Tuner Monster) has 3 stars while Speed Warrior (Non-Tuner Monster) has 2 stars. Their stars are added up to 5 (3+2), the star level, of Speed Warrior (Synchron Monster) exactly.

"What? What's with this guy?", Uryu says, in shock that Yusei plays with synchro-summoning.

The gang still cheers Uryu on, the purple-haired guy saying that it's no big deal because he has plenty of breathing room, and the wide-haired guy laughs. They have a point, because Yusei's monster still has less attack points than Uryu's. However, Yusei activates the Equip magic, [Fighting Spirits - Equipment Spell: Increase the ATK of the equipped monster by 300 points for each monster your opponent controls. If the equipped monster is destroyed by battle, you can destroy this card instead], equipping it to Junk Warrior. Yusei explains that for each opponent's monster, Junk Warrior's attack points increase by 300 points. Taka sees that there are 3 monsters on Uryu's field (Chainsaw Insect, Devil Dozer, and Metal Armored Bug), so Junk Warrior's ATK will increase by a total of 900 points (300*3), and Rally calls Yusei awesome.

Due to the effect of Fighting Spirits, Junk Warrior's attack points become 3200 (2300+900), much to Uryu's surprise, and he realizes that it's stronger than his Insect Monster Army's power. The purple-haired guy says that Yusei must be kidding, and the wide-haired guy's laugh becomes a bit of a whimper. Yusei then plays the spell card, [Domino - Permanent Spell: When a monster your opponent controls is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, by sending any number of cards you control to the Graveyard, destroy that many monsters your opponent controls]. Uryu repeats its name, wondering what it is.

Fighting Spirits
Spell Card
Domino
Spell Card

Without explaining, Yusei commands Junk Warrior to destroy Chainsaw Insect. Junk Warrior flies towards it, and Yusei declares its "Scrap Fist" attack, which sends a beam from its fist. Upon contact, we see that Junk Warrior moved pretty fast, and this strike reduces Uryu's LP to 2400 (3200+2400-3200). And then, at this time, Yusei sends both Scrap-Iron Scarecrow and Fighting Spirits to the cemetery in order to activate the effect of Domino. He says that this is from Domino, as Chainsaw Insect starts to spin, and Uryu looks back at it as Chainsaw Insect collapses onto Devil Dozer, causing Devil Dozer to collapse onto Metal Armored Bug, all like a domino effect, and all of them are destroyed and sent to the cemetery.

This leaves Uryu's gang in shock, as Yusei explains to Uryu the effect of Domino, saying that when a monster on the opponent's field is destroyed and sent to the cemetery, for each card on his field that Yusei sends to the cemetery, it destroys an opponent's monster. Rally understands it, saying that with the two cards Yusei sent to the cemetery, Devil Dozer and Metal Armored Bug were toppled like dominoes and got destroyed. As Uryu grimaces in anger, Yusei tells Uryu that he'll take a blow from the Antlion's Vengeance that he himself played. Uryu realizes this, and the hole left by Antlion's Vengeance spurs up its yellow lightning, which goes straight for Uryu, causing him to receive 2400 points of damage (800 for each of his destroyed monsters), which reduces his LP exactly to 0 (2400-2400).
 

Duel End

Everyone is glad that he did it, and Taka excitedly says that Yusei won. The hole from Antlion's Vengeance disappears with the end of the duel, saying that this can't have happened, going down to his knees.

Yusei walks closer to Uryu and says, "A while back, my friend said this...", stirring his friends' attention as they realize that these are Jack's words.

Yusei continues: "A duel can't be won with monsters alone. They can't be won with traps and spells alone, either." He remembers Jack standing in front of him 2 years ago, after his loss to Jack. He also said, "Only with them all joining together will you see their meaning...and what you need to grasp victory...is right here," pointing to his heart.

Yusei tells Uryu that although his friend didn't tell him what it was, he knows what it is: the soul of a duelist who believes in all their cards. Uryu takes it all in, then says that Yusei's just made a good point to him, getting up and apologizing for causing trouble. But he tells Yusei that this isn't over yet, adding that he will win next time. Yusei smiles, saying that it sounds fine.

Meanwhile, at Jack's mansion, he is practicing a riding duel on his D-Wheel. Rex is observing Jack's practice closely. He rides with a determined face, but then notices something to his left, and then stops. He takes off his helmet and looks up into the sky. Rex walks over and asks him if something's wrong. Jack looks at the full moon and remembers that when he came to this city, it was a moonlit night like this. At the same time, Yusei is watching the full moon from the subway with a fierce look. It seems that he plans to leave Satellite for Jack tonight.
