Summary
At school, Joey Wheeler and Tea Gardner are playing Duel Monsters. Ryo Bakura asks if he can play, but Yugi Muto refuses to let him as Bakura is not a main character. During the duel, Joey cannot figure out the right way to win, so he loses with Tea commenting that he is an idiot. Tristan Taylor then starts singing the "Barney the Dinosaur" friendship song. Outside, Joey asks Yugi to teach him to be a better duelist. Yugi takes a look at Joey's deck, and thinks to himself that Joey's deck is more powerful than his, and it also has the Dark Magician. Yugi lies to Joey that his cards are weak and takes him to his grandfather to teach Joey to be a better duelist.
Solomon Muto is seen looking like he is in love with a Black Luster Soldier poster he hung up, and suddenly Yugi and Joey arrive where Joey asks Solomon to teach him. Solomon agrees to teach Joey with rigorous off-screen practice. Joey wants a training montage but Solomon asks him if he thinks he's Rocky Balboa. At night, the group is watching Rex Raptor and Weevil Underwood duel, where they parody "Beavis and Butthead". Weevil wins the duel and gets a trophy from Maximillion Pegasus. Solomon walks in and says that Yugi has a package. Yugi opens it to find Duelist Kingdom gear and a videotape. Yugi inserts the videotape and Pegasus appears, where he uses his powers to stop time and challenges Yugi to a shadow duel.
Yugi transforms into Yami Yugi and the two duel with a 15 minute time limit.
