Major Events
- First Duel of the Battle City Semi-Finals.
- Many of "The Winged Dragon of Ra's" effects are revealed.
- This is Shadow Game with upped stakes. Marik makes it so that "dark energy strings" connect Marik and Joey to each monster they summon. As each monster is destroyed, more physical energy is zapped away from its owner.
- Joey collapses from pain and exhaustion (almost dying) before he can make the winning move and thus, loses the Duel.
