Elsewhere in Domino, Tristin and Serenity ahd run into an alley to find themselves surrounded by rare hunters. Tristin let Serenity support herself. Tristin then went and attacked the rare hunters. He knocked down two, but then a third grabbed Serenity. Suddenly, a small dice came out of nowhere, knocking the rare hunter to the ground. Tristin was suprised. As he turned around, he spotted Duke Devlin. Tristin and Serenity then ran out of the alley, following Duke.
Back at the duel, Yugi drew the Red-Eyes Black Dragon. Yugi wondered if summoning the Red-Eyes was the best thing to do. Tea then realised that Yugi was duellin, so she called out to Joey to break free. She reminded him of their friendship pact that they made right before Yugi duelled Seto the first time. Yugi then played Exchange. Joey went to Yugi's side of the field to look at Yugi's hand. Joey saw the Red-Eyes. Joey was shocked, but Marik urged him to take the card. However, Joey resisted Marik and took Card Destruction instead. Joey claimed that he didn't need the Red-Eyes to win. Yugi then took Magic-Arm Shield from Joey's hand. After Joey went back to his side of the field, Yugi sacraficed Kuriboh and Big Shield Gardna to summon the might Red-Eyes Black Dragon. The Red-Eyes then destroyed Alligator Sword. Marik began to worry that he was losing control of Joey. At this time, Odion approached Marik and informed him that the rare hunters had lost Tristin and Serenity.
Back in town, the rare hunters had lost Tristin and Serenity. Little did they know that they were hiding with Duke in a truck nearby. Tristin told Duke who Serenity was. Duke was suprised that Joey had such a good looking sister. Tristin then explained that he had no idea why the rare hunters were after him. Duke explained that he had heard rumors about the rare hunterrs.
Back at the dock, Joey had just played another Hinotama(Yugi's LP:1000). Joey then played Attrition, lowering Red-Eyes's attack. Joey then summoned Rocket Warrior and activated its special ability to lower Red-Eyes attack to 400. Joey suddenly felt pain since he had hurt his own monster. Yugi struggled over to Joey's side of the field. Yugi took off the Millenium Puzzle and put it around Joey's neck, telling him that if he lost, Joey could keep the puzzle.
