{{episode summary|[[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] finds himself unable to play "[[Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]" due to his use misuse of [[Fusion Monster]]s while he was [[The Supreme King]]. [[Zane Truesdale|Zane]] attempts to bring him out of it, but Jaden is shell-shocked, and later ends up in a [[Duel]] with the last of his [[The Duelists of Death|former minions]], [[Guardian Baou (character)|Guardian Baou]], who wishes to succeed him.}}

Jaden finds he can't bring himself to play "[[Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]" as while he was [[The Supreme King]], he had used fusion cards extensively, resulting in many deaths to aide in the completion of "[[Super Polymerization (anime)|Super Polymerization]]". Unable to overcome this mental block, he instead Summons "[[Elemental Hero Clayman (anime)|Elemental Hero Clayman]]" in [[Attack Position]], without any sort of strategy to take advantage of that (not even wanting to use "Polymerization" due to the dark memories). Zane uses "[[Cyber End Dragon (anime)|Cyber End Dragon]]" [[equip]]ped with "[[Armored Cybern (anime)|Armored Cybern]]" to destroy "[[Elemental Hero Clayman|Clayman]]" and all three of Jaden's [[Set]] cards. He comments that if Jaden had played "[[Elemental Hero Sparkman (anime)|Elemental Hero Sparkman]]" and "[[Spark Blaster (anime)|Spark Blaster]]", he could have destroyed "[[Armored Cybern]]" last turn. After destroying "[[Hero Barrier (anime)|Hero Barrier]]" Zane states that if Jaden had utilized the previous combo, he could have then used "[[Hero Barrier]]" to negate the attack of "[[Cyber End Dragon]]'s" attack, which means he would have won, since Zane would have then taken 4000 damage from the effect of "[[Power Bond (later anime)|Power Bond]]'s" effect. He then destroys "[[E - Emergency Call (anime)|E - Emergency Call]]" and comments that if "[[Elemental Hero Sparkman|Sparkman]]" wasn't in Jaden's hand, he could have put it there using that card.

He ends up back at the arena where he Dueled [[Brron, Mad King of Dark World (character)|Brron]], and the site of the deaths of [[Chazz Princeton]], [[Alexis Rhodes]], [[Tyranno Hassleberry]] and [[Atticus Rhodes]]. Jaden is then ambushed by [[Guardian Baou (character)|Guardian Baou]], the final remaining member of [[The Duelists of Death]]. Baou intends to defeat Jaden, so he may inherit the title of Supreme King and rule over this dimension. He believes such a rule wouldn't be legitimate unless he defeats the previous ruler. Jaden accepts his challenge, determining that since his friends died here, it would be a suitable place for him to die as well. The Duel begins, and Jaden again blunders his first turn and is unable to use "[[Polymerization]]". He is then on the brink of losing due to this. Later, [[Bastion Misawa]] and [[Tania]] arrive and join Syrus, having heard rumors about The Supreme King.

Jaden Normal Summons "Elemental Hero Burstinatrix" (1200/800) in Attack Position. "Burstinatrix" attacks "Fiend Slime Mold", but Baou activates his face-down "[[Gravity Gain]]". Now all Level 4 or lower monsters can't attack. During each of Baou's Standby Phases, he must either Tribute one monster or destroy "Gravity Gain". The attack made by "Burstinatrix" is then nullified. <u>'''Turn 3: Baou'''</u><br />Baou draws.

* In both versions, when [[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] recalls his time as [[the Supreme King]], a flashback features the King saying 'I activate "[[Polymerization (anime)|Polymerization]]"' to Summon "[[Evil HERO Hero Inferno Wing (anime)|Evil Hero Inferno Wing]]". However, that would be impossible since "Inferno Wing" can only be Summoned with "[[Dark Fusion (anime)|Dark Fusion]]" and a scene later the background clearly shows the spiral of "Dark Fusion".

* In the US version Zane refers to "[[Hero Barrier (anime)|Hero Barrier]] " as a Spell, and "[[E - Emergency Call (anime)|E - Emergency Call]] " as a Trap, when the two are a Trap and Spell, respectivelyand protests that Jaden could have fused "Sparkman" with "Spark Blaster" instead of equipping the latter to Sparkman.
