{{episode summary|Due to [[Rex Goodwin]]'s special permission, a consolation game is to be held. [[Luna]] is called to participate. [[Leo]] is unable to substitute and Luna reluctantly comes forward. Her opponent, [[Professor Frank]], has a trip to the [[Duel Monsters Spirit World]] planned.}}
===At the Stadium===
[[File:LunaisPickedfortheConsolationMatch.jpg|left|200px|thumb|[[Luna]] is chosen.]]
The crowd watch [[Yusei Fudo|Yusei]], who has just won his [[Turbo Duel]] against [[Hunter Pace]]. [[Leo]] boasts to [[Dexter]] about Yusei's skills, until he is shot down by [[Luna]], who reminds him how he lost in the first round. Leo buries his shame, acting innocent, as he says Luna is the one who lost. As the two bicker the [[MC (Master of Ceremonies)|MC]] announces that [[Rex Goodwin|Goodwin]] has made a proposition. All players who lost in the first round are to participate in a consolation game. Leo gets excited ready to play as Luna again. As Leo looks though his Deck, considering reorganizing it, he asks Luna if he can borrow her clothes again. Another disagreement between the duo is cut off by the MC as he prepares to call out the participants in the next Duel. Luna's name is called out, Leo stands up, without having made any change in outfit, but the spotlight drops on Luna.
In a competitor's room [[Greiger]] notes that that must be the real Luna, the imposter, he dueled, showed some fine dueling. He wonders how the real thing will fare. Luna gets uneasy, considering what to do. She doesn't want to duel, considering she gets really tired from dueling. The crowds chants for Luna begin to heat up. Leo sits back disappointed, that after getting a chance to duel Yusei, he's sorry to see it has to end like this. Luna reluctantly steps up and gathers her [[Duel Disk]] under her arms.
[[File:Ruka's long walk.png|thumb|200px|leftright|Luna walks down to the arena.]]
As Luna leaves her companions, [[Yanagi Tenzen|Yanagi]] asks Leo about her Deck. Leo tells him how Luna had built a "Spirit Deck", since she was able to communicate with Duel Spirits, who told her to make a Spirit Deck. Slightly puzzled, [[Bolt Tanner|Tanner]] asks that that be ran by him again. Leo continues as he says that she gets tired after hearing the Spirit's voices, explaining why she gets tired after a Duel. Timidly Luna makes her way down a flight of steps to the arena with the spotlight and the audience's attention following her.

The MC calls out the prodigy Luna. Her Duel Disk fits on neatly, thanks to Yusei's adjustments. Frank is introduced. He walks out and bows to Luna, saying he is glad to meet her acquaintance. Uneasily, Luna lets out a "same". He asks how about finding the real her, hidden within the inner depths of her consciousness. Luna then hears another voice, make a squeaking whisper. She responds to it mentally, "Yeah, you have the same uneasy feeling".
Hoping to end the Duel as soon as possible, she Summons her first Spirit, "[[Sunny Pixie (anime)|Sunny Pixie]]". Frank brings out "[[Symmetry Rorschach]]". He uses the monster to conduct the [[Wikipedia:Rorschach inkblot test|Rorschach test]]. He asks her what the monster looks like to her. Luna is bewildered by the circumstances, but in the crowd, [[Yanagi Tenzen|Yanagi]] and [[Dexter]] call out that its "[[Crystal Skull (anime)|Crystal Skull]]" and a butterfly respectively, but Leo is worried about what Luna's opponent is up to. Reluctantly Luna says "A Spirit?", as the monster then takes on the form of her monster. The monster then grows a demonic head and attacks her "Sunny Pixie". Luna yells as her monster is destroyed by it. Frank's voice remains calm and open, says that the test has revealed that she is afraid. He then asks if she is afraid of spirits and fairies. Luna attempts to begin to explain that that's not how it is, but is cut off by Frank. He says it is fine, he shall clear any worries she has. To do so she must courageously enter the world of the Duel Monster Spirits. He is aware that she can talk to spirits, so deduces that her being in a world of spirits isn't strange at all. Luna wonders how such a world can exist.
Frank then uses the effect of "Symmetry Rorschach's" effect, revealing the top card of her Deck. Luna is slightly relieved to see "[[Kuribon (anime)|Kuribon]]". Frank, calm as always, asks her if she is able to hear its voice. Knowing it to be true, Luna begins to get more uneasy, she then turns to face Leo in the crowd, right before a flashback of her past. She hears Leo calling her name, but is unsure if that just happened or if she had imagined it. Leo begins to feel Luna's fear.
Frank continues the Duel, Sets two cards and passes to Luna. Luna brings out "[[Kuribon]]" to her aid. But Frank plays "[[Depth-Guiding Lightto the Depths]]", hypnotizing her as he does so. The sixth card "[[Ancient Forest (anime)|Ancient Forest]]" is activated. After explaining its effect, Frank interprets it as a world that doesn't tolerate conflict.
[[File:The enchanted other world.png|thumb|200px|rightleft|Luna awakens in the Duel Monster Spirits World.]]Luna awakens in the World of Duel Monster Spirits. Despite the tranquility of the place, she still feels afraid. Back in reality, Luna remains in a trance. Frank plays "[[Gestalt Trap]]" on "Kuribon". In the Spirit world, the shackle from the Trap appears and wraps itself around "Kuribon". Followed by "[[Immortal Homeostasis]]", also targeting "Kuribon". Next Frank Tributes "Symmetry Rorschach" for "[[Ido the Supreme Magical Force (anime)|Ido the Supreme Magical Force]]". In the Spirit World, Luna attempts to attend to "Kuribon", but is then confronted by Frank's monster.
[[File:Tranced Ruka.png|thumb|leftright|180px|The Tranced Luna in reality.]]
In reality, Luna remains motionless. The crowd begin to yell at her, that she's going to lose, if she continues like this. Dexter notices Leo is experiencing the same loss in concentration.
"Kuribon" takes "Ido the Supreme Magical Force's", blow but survives due to the effect of "Immortal Homeostasis". Despite its survival Frank explains that "Kuribon" experiences a world of pain, due to its immortality. He then reminds Luna of her true mission. Remembering conflict isn't tolerated in the forest, Luna watches Ido get destroyed. Her smile of relief is cut short as it revives itself.
In reality, the tranced Luna draws and takes damage from "Immortal Homeostasis" before Summoning "[[Sunlight Unicorn (anime)|Sunlight Unicorn]]" and equipping it with "[[Horn of the Unicorn (later anime)|Horn of the Unicorn]]". (The English anime mistakenly has 8 [[Level]] Stars on the "Sunlight Unicorn" card.) [[File:5Dx018 Dub Error Sunlight Unicorn's Level.png|thumb|left|In the dub, "[[Sunlight Unicorn ]]" is incorrectly shown as a LV8 but [[Level]] 8 monster; it is actually a LV4. Dub errorLevel 4. ]] In the Spirit World, the unicorn appears ready to assist Luna. A voice than begins calling her name. She looks around and the voice asks her, if she came to fulfill her promise to protect the Duel Monster Spirit World from the evil ones.

==Differences in adaptations==
* The text on Luca's (Luna's) information was changed from Japanese to Latin instead of being translated to English in the dub. The Latin text was very different in the 4Kids dub than the Japanese text in the original Japanese version in terms of translation, and it even emulated the font, the lines, the size and the style of the letters very differently in the dub than in the original.
* In the original, Goodwin did not say Luna beat expert Duelists.
* In the Japanese version. When Rex was checking on Akutsu (Zigzix) he was humming. In the English version he was singing [[Hyper Drive]].
* In the original Luna decided to Duel for Leo so he could take her place for the rest of the tournament, while in the dub she only did it to prove to him she can talk to Duel spirits.
* In the original, Leo already believed she could speak to Duel spirits, while in the dub he thinks it's make believe.
* In the original when Kuribon speaks to Luna, Luna thinks it has the same uneasy feeling as her, while in the dub Luna asks it why it never talks whenever Leo's around.
==Errors==
* When Franks draws on Frank conducts his second turn of 2nd normal draw during the Duel, he appeared to be drawing draws a second copy of "[[Gestalt Trap Card]]". However given what was in , when his hand at is shown later that pointturn, that should have been only "[[Mental PollutionSpirit Contamination]]", "[[Pot of Avarice (anime)|Pot of Avarice]]", and "[[Ido the Supreme Magical Force (anime)|Ido the Supreme Magical Force]]" are in his hand (he activated ""[[Immortal Homeostasis]]" or earlier that turn, but did not Set any cards). * In the dub, "[[Ido Sunlight Unicorn (anime)|Sunlight Unicorn]]" is shown as a Level 8 monster. * At one point in the Supreme Magical Forcedub, Frank refers to "Gestalt Trap" equipped to "[[Kuribon (anime)|Kuribon]]"as a [[Spell Card]].
