==Summary==
+
=Summary=
[[Noah Kaiba|Noah]] directs everyone to the real exits in the virtual [[Domino City]] arcade. With the [[Noah's Virtual World|virtual world]] about to be destroyed, [[Gozaburo Kaiba|Gozaburo]] turns into a red monster and tries to escape in [[Seto Kaiba|Kaiba's]] body. However, Kaiba persuades him to continue Dueling, promising his body if Gozaburo wins.
+
With [[Yami Marik]] having destroyed the central computer that powers the [[Virtual World]], [[Noah Kaiba|Noah]], still in possession of [[Mokuba Kaiba|Mokuba]]'s body, attempts to help the gang escape, one by one, but asks [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] to find [[Seto Kaiba|Seto]] for him before the missiles fire from the [[KaibaCorp]] satellite. As [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] heads through a shortcut portal to the virtual [[KaibaCorp]] stadium, [[Seto Kaiba|Seto]] continues his [[Duel]] with [[Gozaburo Kaiba|Gozaburo]], who tries to possess his stepson when he discovers that his virtual universe is about to be deleted, but [[Seto Kaiba|Seto]] convinces him to continue the [[Duel]], and the winner will escape, in possession of his body.<br />
  
[[Joey Wheeler|Joey]], [[Duke Devlin|Duke]], [[Tristan]], [[Téa Gardner|Téa]], and [[Serenity Wheeler|Serenity]] escape to the real world. Tristan wakes up in his real body. At Noah's request, [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] stays behind to find Kaiba. Noah gives him a shortcut to Kaiba and Gozaburo's [[Duel]].
+
[[Seto Kaiba|Kaiba]] ultimately discovers the weak link in [[Gozaburo Kaiba|Gozaburo]]'s strategy: he is depending on the power of a single monster, like he himself was in his first [[Duel]] with [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]], so he manages to make a comeback by negating [[Exodia Necross]]'s abilities with "[[Soul Demolition]]", and then destroying [[Exodia Necross]] with his signature [[Blue-Eyes White Dragon]], winning the Duel.
  
Kaiba wins the Duel, but Gozaburo tries to take his body anyway in his red monster form. Yugi helps Kaiba escape the building and Noah gives them a new exit. As Kaiba and Yugi wake up in their pods in the real world, Noah, in Mokuba's body, climbs back inside a pod and reenters the virtual world. Noah gives Mokuba's body back and the two say goodbye as Noah sends Mokuba back to the real world. Kaiba wakes Mokuba and they, with Yugi, rush to board the blimp. In the virtual world, Gozaburo plans to upload his mind to another network, but Noah traps him as the place destructs.
+
But then, the satellite's missiles fire and descend toward the Virtual Fortress island. Can [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] and [[Seto Kaiba|Kaiba]] escape the [[Virtual World]] before it's too late?
  
All of the gang escape the fortress in the blimp, although Yugi, Kaiba, and Mokuba barely make it.
+
==Featured Duel: Seto Kaiba vs. Gozaburo Kaiba==
 
 
Noah and Gozaburo are destroyed with the virtual world when the missile hits the fortress; however, Gozaburo makes one last bid to escape in the form of a large flame. He fails to consume the blimp when Kaiba transforms the blimp into a jet so it can escape and disappears with the explosion. Watching the explosion from above, the gang say their farewells to Noah. Kaiba expresses his wish to put the past behind him and continue to [[KaibaCorp Island]] to let the [[Battle City]] finals commence.
 
 
 
==Featured Duel: Seto Kaiba vs. Gozaburo Kaiba - Part 2==

Now both players, during their respective turns, can pay 500 Life Points to remove from play one monster from their opponent's Graveyard, but they can only activate the effect if they have a Fiend-type monster on their field. Seto pays 2500 LP ([[Seto Kaiba|Seto]]: 2600 → 2100 → 1600 → 1100 → 600 → 100 [[Life Points]]) to remove all five Exodia pieces in Gozaburo's [[Graveyard]] from play, thereby negating "[[Exodia Necross]]'s" special effects and most importantly, its boosted [[ATK]] ("[[Exodia Necross]]": 5800 → 1800 [[ATK]] / 0 [[DEF]]) (NOTE: In the real game, removing any of the Exodia pieces from its controller's graveyard results in "[[Exodia Necross]]'s" immediate destruction).

Kaiba then Tributes "Ancient Lamp" and "La Jinn the Mystical Genie of the Lamp" in order to Tribute Summon "[[Blue-Eyes White Dragon (anime)|Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]" (3000/2500) in Attack Position.

*At the end of the episode, cut is a shot of a lily floating on a river and [[Mokuba]] hearing [[Noah]] saying 'I am a human, not a machine.'
*In the original, after Noah clings on Gozaburo's neck, he tells Gozaburo they died long ago. In the dub he says he was going to free Gozaburo's mind and make sure he never hurts anyone again.
+
*In the english dub, Mokuba believes that Noah has uploaded his mind to a back-up file, and believes he will see Noah again. However in the japanese dub, Mokuba merely throws the lily into the river, signifying that Noah is dead.
 
 
*Cut from the dub is a very quick scene where buildings are being deleted by the virtual world shutting down.
 
 
 
*In the original as Gozaburo was being deleted, he yells that he doesn't want to die yet, while in the dub he boasts in panic that Noah can't keep him there.
 
 
 
*In the dub, the Big Five's deaths occur (offscreen) in this episode, as they are imprisoned in the virtual world when it is destroyed. In the Japanese version, their deaths occurred [[Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 113|eight episodes earlier]] because Noah deleted them instead of imprisoning them.

In the original, however, Mokuba throws a lily into a river, signifying that Noah is truly dead. However after Noah's mind was deleted and the base is being blown up, he is heard saying goodbye to Mokuba (this scene with Mokuba is removed in the dub).

+
*This Duel is the only one in the [[Virtual World]] involving no [[Deck Master]]s.
*Aside from flashbacks to [[Cecelia Pegasus|Cecelia]], this is the first episode to feature death that is neither resurrected nor censored/replaced with the Shadow Realm (possible exception of [[Yami Bakura]] setting the [[Reaper of the Cards]] on Pegasus's goons). Though Noah's death is censored with speculation that he found a way to survive, Gozaburo's death is left intact. Also of note, [[the Big Five]] are imprisoned in the virtual world at this time and were therefore destroyed along with it (though in the Japanese version, their deaths occurred eight episodes earlier when Noah deleted them instead of imprisoning them).
