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.
