Episode Synopsis[]
This is the first, and last, episode with Tristan's new voice. This is also the episode where Joey duels Rex, with Joey being the victor once again due to his Time Wizard. After the duel, there is a short clip of Mai getting kidnapped, which primes the plot for an episode to come. Bakura also reveals himself to the gang, and they talk about their favorite cards before Yami Bakura knocks everyone out and challenges Yami Yugi to a duel. The last few minutes of the video is devoted to Tristan's "dead" voice.
This episode is notable as it contains the original "It's Raping Time" recorded by LittleKuriboh. This soundclip has since been used in many YoutTubePoops and even by PewDiePie.
