This episode features the debut of many new game mechanics , including [[Dark Synchro Summon]]ing and [[negative Level]]s.

[[Yusei Fudo|Yusei]], winner of the [[Fortune Cup]] and the appearance of the [[Crimson Dragon]], catches the interest of the media and the mysterious organisation organization, called the [[Dark Signers]]. One of these [[Dark Signers]] challenges [[Yusei]] to a [[Duel]].

In the scrapyard, [[Nervin]], [[Tank]], [[Blitz]] and [[Rally Dawson|Rally]] are still in the scrapyard. [[Nervin]] rattles at a TV Screenscreen, to try and pick up the signal that they lost , after the [[Crimson Dragon]] appeared. Eventually the signal returns and they see that [[Yusei]] won and is now King. Initially they stare in shock before they begin dancing in celebration.

At the Stadium, there is mixed reactions among the audience over the new King. [[Carly Carmine|Carly]] holds a camera to her face as she stutters to announce that [[Yusei]] has just beaten Jack. [[JackAngela Rains|Angela]]appears, pushing Carly aside and reports the same story, although appearing much more professional, while her own cameraman films her. Carly approaches Angela to tell her off. Angela teases Carly saying she thought she was only rehearsing and pointing out that Carly hasn't changed; she still stutters. Carly's anger builds up, but Angela takes off in search of someone to interview. Carly quickly dashes to do the same.

With members of the crowd still cheering for [[Yusei]], [[Jack]] is taken away in a stretcher. Some of the crowd start jeering at [[Yusei]]. Not trusting him for being from [[Satellite]] and having a [[Criminal mark|criminal mark]], they start suspect he was up to no good, resulting in [[Jack]]'s injury. [[Bolt Tanner|Tanner]], [[Tenzen Yanagi|Yanagi]] and [[Leo]] rush to [[Yusei]] to warn him to get out before the large crowd of reporters are let near him. [[Lazar]] is shocked and confused over the unplanned circumstances with [[Jack]] losing and [[Yusei]] becoming the new King. He he asks [[Rex Goodwin|Goodwin]] if he plans letting [[Yusei]] get away with this. [[Goodwin]] responds calmly that the stars have started to move in anticipation for when they unify as one.

The reporters search around , but [[Yusei]] appears to have vanished.

Meanwhile [[Bolt Tanner|Bolt]], [[Dexter]], Yusei, [[Luna]], [[Leo]] and [[Yanagi]] pass through an underground tunnel, wheeling [[Yusei]]'s [[Duel Runner]] alongside them. [[Bolt]] Himuro details them in on how the tunnel was made back when the stadium was being built , but nobody uses it anymore. [[Blister]] had told him about it.

While some of the gang begin to celebrate some more , over [[Yusei]] becoming King, [[but Bolt]] is suspicious that the tournament organisers organizers are up to something, since they kidnapped [[Yusei]]'s friends. Whatever the situation he feels it's best they all lay low at [[Blister]]'s hideout.

[[Luna]] expresses her concern, telling [[Yusei]] that she had fully seen his [[Duel]] with [[Jack Atlas|Jack]] and saw the destruction of [[Satellite]]. Neither of them are unsure of what it was that was causing the mayhem , but [[Yusei]] feels he must stop it. [[Luna]] then asks what a [[Signers|Signer]] is anyway. [[Yanagi]] sees this as his cue and steps in to explain.

The multitude of reporters wait outside a room guarded by a number of [[Securities]] to question [[Goodwin]]. [[Carly]] tries to avoid being nervous and pulls out her [[Fortune Telling Deck]]. She draws the card "[[Fortune Fairy Hikari]]". Judging by the card, her fortune for today is "super happy" and "Straight ahead is the only way. All of your wishes will come true". [[Goodwin]] and [[Lazar]] emerge from the room. The reporters begin to ask what happened in the [[Duel]] and what was the [[Crimson Dragon]]. [[Angela]] asks if [[Jack]] really lost; some fans aren't taking that too well.  [[Goodwin]] describes the unusual behavior during the [[Duel]] as a glitch in the [[Solid Vision]] and that a report on all details of the [[Duel]] will be given tomorrow.

Angela asks if Jack really lost; some fans aren't taking that too well. Goodwin describes the unusual behavior during the Duel as a glitch in the Solid Vision and that a report on all details of the Duel, will be given tomorrow. Angela asks what [[Goodwin]] can tell them about [[Yusei]]. [[Goodwin]] replies that all he knows is that he was born in [[Satellite]].

[[Carly]] is unable to get noticed due to her position in the crowd, so she drops to the floor and crawls forward keeping in mind her fortune from the card. She pops up in front of [[Angela]], cutting off her question , as she surfaces. Carly mentions to Goodwin how it looked like Yusei's arm was glowing after the Crimson Dragon appeared and asks if that was of any significance. Goodwin is put off by the question, but replies that 'perhaps the sheen of Yusei's Duel Runner' was reflecting the sunlight into Carly's eyes, but she remains adamant about what she saw. Angela pulls Carly aside to tell her off for asking off topic questions.

[[Angela]] pulls [[Goodwin glares at Carly]] aside to tell as he passes her off for asking off topic questions.

[[Lazar]] alerts the crowd that they shall now end all questioning. The [[Securities]] hold the crowd to the sides while [[Goodwin]] and [[Lazar]] pass. [[Goodwin]] glares at [[Carly]] as he passes her. With neither [[Yusei]] or [[Goodwin]] available for interviewing, the reporters leave for [[Jack]]. [[Carly]] chases after them remembering straight ahead is the only way for her , but she slips and falls back, losing her shoe in the process.

While in her car, which is on auto-pilot, [[Carly]] is contacted by her chief, who is not pleased over her failure to interview [[Yusei]]. He tells her to get her ass in gear or she's fired , but [[Carly]] promises she'll get a scoop and tells him to keep the front page open.

[[Carly]] watches over a clip of [[Yusei]] , just before the [[Crimson Dragon]] appears and spots the birthmark glowing on his arm. She deduces that [[Goodwin]] was playing dumb and there is a connection between to the glowing arm and the [[Crimson Dragon]].

Her radar then picks up the signal of the a [[Duel Disk]]. Looking to her left she sees a group of people watching a [[Duel]] in a yard. She comments that there are many stars in the streets that don't get rewarded; just like her ; but she won't go back on the streets, since she won't let this chance slip. But her engine stalls.

A group of 3 [[Dark Signers]] sit together in a dimly lit room, illuminated only by a candlestick. With the [[Signers]] gathered together after 5000 years, they may begin their battle. [[Roman Goodwin|The leader]] opens his hand, setting 2 two spiders free , which climb onto a chandelier.

At [[Blister]]'s hideout, [[Yanagi]] sketches a picture of the [[Crimson Dragon]] curled up for [[Yusei]], [[Luna]], [[Leo]] and [[Bolt]]. [[Yusei]] and [[Luna]] compare their birthmarks to parts of the dragon. Yanagi explains how the head, wings, claws and tail of the Crimson Dragon, were split up and sealed in the Signers as birthmarks. Bolt points out that they only know of four Signers, Yusei, Luna, Jack and [[Akiza Izinski|Akiza]], yet the Crimson Dragon showed up. Yanagi continues that the fifth Signer must have been nearby.

[[Yanagi]] continues that the fifth [[Signer]] must have been nearby. [[Luna]] suddenly passes out after [[Leo]] checks himself for a birthmark , but finds nothing. [[Yanagi]] catches her and the others rush over. She immediately wakes up and insists that she's fine, just a little tired.

[[Mina Simington|Mina]] paces around outside [[Jack]]'s room at the hospital. Meanwhile outside, a number of reporters are refused entry as no visitors are allowed. [[Carly]] stops next to them in her car , but then drives on reciting that straight ahead is the only way for her.

3 [[Three Dark Signers]] stand on a monument in front of a small crowd of spectators. They preach that the [[Crimson Dragon]] has appeared to spread despair across the land in search of crimson blood; they invite the crowd to join them to stop the [[Crimson Dragon]]. Drops of white fluid drop onto a number of the watchers from a froma large spider web above them.

At [[Blister]]'s hideout, [[Yusei]]'s arm begins to throb , but unlike before. This time it feels like it's gouging into him. He walks over to the window and spots a [[Grady|cloaked man]] with a glowing purple birthmark, similar to the spider that tore up [[Satellite]].  Assuming him to be a [[Signer]], [[Yusei]] rushes out to him. The man flees down an alley, leading [[Yusei]] to a car park. [[Yusei]] asks him what's going to happen to [[Satellite]]. The cloaked figure imposes a [[Shadow Duel]]. [[Yusei]] accepts, hoping he can use it to get info from out of him. The two players are surrounded by a circular wall of purple light.

[[Carly]] picks up a strong reading on her Duel Radar in her car, she spots the light in the car park , where [[Yusei]] and the [[Dark Signer]] are [[duel]]ingdueling.

As [[Yusei]] continues the [[Duel]], he notices the cards are inflicting real [[damage]] , just like [[Akiza Izinski|Akiza's]] powers. [[Yusei]]'s opponent brings out a [[Dark Tuner Monsters|Dark Tuner monster]] and suprises [[Yusei]] as he performs a [[Dark Synchro Summon]] and [[summon]]s Summons a monster with a [[negative Level]], "[[Frozen Fitzgerald]]".

[[Carly]] gets out of her car and leaps over a fence before dashing into the car park in the direction of the [[Duel]].
