"Win Mr Stein's Duel, Part 2", known as "Desperate Situation! The Scarred Heroes" in the Japanese version, is the one hundred and fourteenth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime. It first aired in Japan on December 13, 2006, and in the US on July 21, 2007.

Jaden Yuki continues his Duel with Mr. Stein, and the latter reveals more of his motives and past history.

Summary

Alexis is still trapped in a room by herself, and it's filling up with water quickly. Jim and Shirley manage to finally scare off the tiger that had attacked them, after Jim Summons "Flint Cragger" to intimidate it further.

Meanwhile, Jaden's Duel with Mr. Stein continues. If Jaden wins, he'll be able to get to where Professor Viper is hiding. Jaden questions Stein why he's doing this and Stein reveals his past. He had previously been a Duelist in the Pro League and was skilled enough that the was eventually able to challenge The D for the world championship. However, he was also attempting to get his teaching degree, and was thus taking classes at night. This left him exhausted and his Duel with The D was never finished. Due to his health issues, he retired, and got a job at Duel Academy, devoting himself to teaching the next generation of Duelists.

Elsewhere, Jesse and Syrus make a break for the elevator. Jesse explains when the power died, the elevator died with it. This frightens Syrus and causes him to panic, leaving Jesse to scan the area for trouble. From a distance, he hears Jaden Dueling and sets off after him, trailed by Syrus.

Meanwhile Stein reiterates that he blames Jaden for influencing other students to into lethargy, and states that it doesn't matter if Jaden didn't do it intentionally - it simply makes it worse because he never realized the effect he was having on others. Stein tells Jaden that it wouldn't matter if he wasn't so talented - but he's a role model for other students. He defeated the Sacred Beasts and The Light of Destruction and other students wish to emulate him. Because Jaden also skips or sleeps through classes, other students believe they can do the same and still be just as good a Duelist as Jaden is. However, Stein says that other students don't have Jaden's "natural ability". He says that the last student to stop attending his classes was Alexis.

Viper later interrupts the Duel, appearing via a hologram. He shows Jaden the room where Alexis will soon drown. He informs Jaden that if Stein's Life Points reach 0, the room will completely fill up with water. Stein was unaware of this, and questions Viper about it. Viper responds with a clip of Alexis stating she doesn't enjoy Stein's classes either. This spurs him to continue the Duel.

Stein Summons "Scar-Knight", which is revealed in flashbacks to be the original form of "Scab Scar-Knight". It transformed when Stein's outlook on life began to collapse, and it morphed along with Steins views. "Scar-Knight" is shown to be Stein's most beloved card, and a montage of his Duels during his days in the Pro League is shown, with Stein using the card to defeat many opponents. In addition, this card is also his Spirit partner. Stein appears to have the ability to see his own spirit, but not those of others.

Jim and Hassleberry have been searching for Alexis, and Shirley points them in the right direction. She demolishes a wall underwater and this allows Jim to swim into the room and rescue Alexis. This allows Jaden to continue the Duel, and he ultimately defeats Stein, whose Bio-Band causes him to collapse, and unfortunately, he ends up plunging into the abyss below when he attempts to pick up his "Scar-Knight" card
