Summary

The second Duel of the Duelist Kingdom finals continues between Joey Wheeler and Bandit Keith. The Duel remains close until Keith Summons Barrel Dragon, a 2600 ATK monstrosity with the effect of being able to destroy up to three monsters in one attack. Not even Joey's Time Wizard and Baby Dragon combo can defeat it.

However, Joey turns the Duel around by using Copycat as Metalmorph, turning his Red-Eyes B. Dragon into Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon. It destroys Keith's Barrel Dragon, leaving just it and Keith's Slot Machine on the field. The Duel goes back and forth with each Duelist powering up his own monster while trying to destroy his opponent's. Keith uses The Pillager to take Joey's Shield & Sword, which makes Slot Machine's ATK greater than Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon. However, Joey activates Graverobber to take Time Machine from Keith's Graveyard, Special Summoning his Machine dragon back to the field with its ATK now higher than that of Slot Machine. Joey attacks and wins.

Keith demands the Duel be declared void since Joey used Mai's card. However, Pegasus knows that Keith stole Joey's card and also that Keith cheated by hiding his 7 Completed beneath his wrist band. Pegasus orders his guards to take Keith away, but Keith knocks them out cold, jumps towards Pegasus, and puts a gun to his head (the gun is removed in the U.S. version), demanding the prize money. Pegasus activates a trap door, sending Keith through a tunnel and out into the ocean. With Joey the winner, he now has to face Yugi in the next Duel before the final match against Pegasus.
