== Episode summary ==

[[Zora]] has been in front of Yusei and company's garage. However, the always cheerful Zora isn't in such high spirits. [[Crow Hogan]] asks her why she was so upset to only be shouted at. [[Yusei Fudo|Yusei]] asks what's troubling her and learns that the town committee has decided that they will be replacing the cuckoo clock that she has cherished. Crow notices that the clock isn't moving and states it. Zora yells at him again but when Yusei said how bad the situation was, she agrees with him. Crow then mumbles why Zora is being mean to him. The old woman points out that her son is coming to visit, but the two are in an argument. So, she's  Crow covers his ears and shouts that he knows, which causes everybody to laugh. In the English dub, Crow asks why Zora was being mean to him. Zora explains that her son was coming to visit, but the two are in an argument, so she's practicing Crow. Then, Crow shouts, "There's nothing quite like a mother's love!" and then everyone laughs at the statement.

While they are working on their [[Duel Runner]]s, a person begins to complement the boy's Duel Runners. When they look up to see who it was, it was none other than Zora's son, [[Lyndon]]. Lyndon set out three years ago to study clocks and has returned to repair the broken cuckoo clock. When he explained his situation to the gang, Crow says that his actions were the worst and Jack states that he was the worst. [[Akiza]] guesses that Lyndon left in order to train himself, which turned out to be correct. Jack urges Lyndon to go and apologize to Zora, but Lyndon is hesitant at first. Akiza wonders out loud that Zora might fight with her son again if they see each other again. Lyndon agrees and Akiza adds that, "The stronger your bonds are with your parents, the harder it is to get words across." The boy then grabs her hands and shakes them in agreement to her statement. Yusei grabs Lyndon by the shoulder and pulls him away. He quickly tells him that he must get to work. Crow agrees and says that the old clock was going to be replaced. Lyndon immediately dashes to fix the clock, but Akiza stops him, telling him that he needed to change into something better. On the second floor of the store, Lyndon is dressed in a tuxedo and he's having a hard time with the tie. Jack grabs the end of it and pulls on it tightly before Akiza stops him. She ties the tie and Yusei asks how she learned. Akiza claimed that her father needed to tie his tie every morning, so she got used to it.

Lyndon confronts his mother, who is clearly shocked to see him. He starts telling why he came back and the gang are listening from outside. Jack wonders if this is how Lyndon was supposed to apologize to his mother. After he explained why he came back, Zora picks up a chair and throws it at him. Lyndon trips, but he isn't hit by the chair. The old woman then exclaims that it was Lyndon who had broken the clock, which surprised the gang. Crow asks what happened and Lyndon tells the whole story about the broken clock this time. Zora asks him if he even had the courage to fix the clock, making her son quite doubtful. He turns around to run away again when Crow stops him. He challenged Lyndon to a duel. If Crow won, Lyndon had to apologize to his mother and fix the clock but if Lyndon won, he could do whatever he pleased. Lyndon agreed and they begin the Duel.

== Feature Duel ==
===Lyndon vs Crow===

<u>'''Lyndon's turn'''</u><br />
Lyndon [[draw]]s "[[Monster Clock]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it (0/0) in Attack Position.

<u>'''Crow's turn'''</u><br />
Crow draws "[[Blackwing - Fane the Steel Chain]]" and subsequently Normal Summons it in Attack Position (500/800). Since Crow controls a Blackwing monsters, Crow [[Special Summon]]s "[[Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind]]" (1300/400) in Attack Position via its own effect. "[[Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind]]" attacks "[[Monster Clock]]", but Lyndon activates the [[effect]] of "[[Monster Clock]]", equipping "[[Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind]]" onto it and increasing its ATK by the ATK of "Gale the Whirlwind" ("Monster Clock": 0 → 1300/0). "[[Blackwing - Fane the Steel Chain]]" attacks Lyndon [[directly]] via its own effect (Lyndon 4000 → 3500 [[Life Points]]).

<u>'''Lyndon's turn'''</u><br />
Lyndon draws. He then Normal Summons "[[Clock Knight 12|Clock Knight #12]]" (1200/1200) in Attack Position. Since Lyndon controls a "Clock Knight" monster, he activates the [[Spell Card]] "[[Clock Work]]", allowing Lyndon to [[Special Summon]] a Clock Knight from his hand that has a Level lower than the Clock Knight he currently has on the field. He chooses to Special Summon "[[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]]" from his hand (300/300) in Attack Position. Lyndon then activates the effect of "[[Clock Knight 12|Clock Knight #12]]", allowing him to [[Coin Toss|flip a coin]]. If it lands on Heads, "Clock Knight #12" gains 1200 ATK for one turn, but if it lands on Tails, "Clock Knight #12" will be destroyed. The coin lands on Tails, but Lyndon uses the effect of "[[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]]" to do the [[Coin Toss|coin toss]] again. The coin lands on Heads this time, so the ATK of "[[Clock Knight 12|Clock Knight #12]]" increases by 1200 for this turn ("[[Clock Knight 12|Clock Knight #12]]": 1200 → 2400/1200). Lyndon then activates the effect of "[[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]]", allowing him to [[Coin Toss|flip another coin]]. If it lands on Heads, "Clock Knight #3" gains 1200 ATK for one turn, but if it lands on Tails, "Clock Knight #3" will be destroyed. It lands on Heads, so the ATK of "[[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]]" increases by 1200 for one turn ("[[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]]": 300 → 1500/300). "[[Clock Knight 12|Clock Knight #12]]" attacks and destroys "[[Blackwing - Fane the Steel Chain]]" ([[Crow Hogan|Crow]] 4000 → 2100 [[Life Points]]). "[[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]]" attacks Crow directly, but [[Crow Hogan|Crow]] uses the effect of "[[Blackwing - Ghibli the Searing Wind]]" to Special Summon it from his [[hand]] (0/ 1600) in Defense Position. A replay occurs and Lyndon chooses not to attack. On the End Phase, the effects of both "Clock Knight #12" and "Clock Knight #3" wear off ("[[Clock Knight 12|Clock Knight #12]]": 2400 → 1200/1200) ("[[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]]": 1500 → 300/300).

<u>'''Crow's turn'''</u><br />
Crow draws [[Mirror Force]] and subsequently [[set]]s it. He then Normal Summons [[Blackwing - Blizzard the Far North]] in Attack Position (1300/0). Since Crow Normal Summoned "Blizzard the Far North", its effect activates, allowing Crow to Special Summon [[Blackwing - Fane the Steel Chain]] from the [[Graveyard]] in Defense Position (500/800). Crow then tunes his three monsters together to [[Synchro Summon]] "[[Blackwing Armor Master]]" in Attack Position (2500/1500). "Blackwing Armor Master" attacks and destroys [[Clock Knight 3|Clock Knight #3]] (Lyndon 3500 → 1300 Life Points). After Crow ends his turn, [[Lyndon]] wants to forfeit, but [[Crow Hogan]] convinces him to keep dueling.

<u>'''Lyndon's turn'''</u><br />
Lyndon draws [[Time Wizard]] and subsequently Normal Summons it in Attack Position (500/400). He then activates the effect of "Time Wizard". He succeeds in the effect, so "[[Blackwing Armor Master]]" is destroyed. "[[Monster Clock]]" and "[[Clock Knight 12|Clock Knight #12]]" then attack Crow directly. Crow chooses not to activate his set "[[Mirror Force]]", so the attacks continue (Crow 2100 → 800 → 0).

Lyndon wins.

==Notes==

Toonzai aired the dubbed version of this episode on February 5, 2011. Strangely, this episode aired after the Crash Town arc, which contradicts with the episode order (However, there is no proof within the dubbed episode that this HAS taken place before Crash Town, making it seem like that Crash Town has occurred before this episode).  The episode can also be seen dubbed on Hulu.

==Differences in adaptations==
* In the dub, [[Zora]] knew that her son was coming home, while in the original, she didn't know.
* In the dub, Lyndon broke the Zora's clock tinkering with it to make it more efficient. In the original he was just trying to restart stopped gears in the clock when things got out of hand.
* In the dub, when Crow summons "[[Blackwing - Ghibli the Searing Wind]]", the mistake is fixed and it's reverted back to a [[Level]] 3 [[Monster]].

==Errors==
In the Japanese version, when [[Crow Hogan|Crow]] [[Special Summon]]s "[[Blackwing - Ghibli the Searing Wind]]" from his [[hand]], it is a [[Level]] 4 [[monster]]. When he used it to [[Synchro Summon]] "[[Blackwing Armor Master]]", it is [[Level]] is 3. This was fixed on the DVD Version.
