Summary
| - thumb|left|"Magical Hats" conceals Dark Yugi's monsters.
Dark Yugi activated "Magical Hats", concealing "Dark Magician" under one hat and shuffling it with three others.
- Dark Yugi played either "Mirror Force" or "Monster Reborn" face-down in the Spell & Trap Card Zone and Summoned "Celtic Guardian" , which he used to attack and destroy "Grappler".
- The ventriloquist played an unnamed monster in Defense Mode and a "Negate Attack" face-down in the Spell & Trap Card Zone.
- As the puppet drew the next card, the ventriloquist had it say "The d-d-dragon of r-r-revenge has risen from Hell!!" and ask if Dark Yugi is ready. He then Summoned "Blue-Eyes White Dragon". Mokuba, Dark Yugi and his friends were all surprised by this, as only the real Seto Kaiba owned copies of that card.
The ventriloquist had the puppet claim to be Kaiba's soul borrowing the doll as a body in order to exact revenge on Dark Yugi. This had Dark Yugi wonder if the part of Kaiba's soul containing his undying grudge and thirst for vengeance were actually part of the doll.
By forfeiting his attack, the ventriloquist played "Stop Defense" face-down and laughed to himself that Dark Yugi's monsters would soon have nowhere to run.

Dark Yugi activated his face-down "Monster Reborn", causing the ventriloquist to worry that one of his monsters could be revived onto Dark Yugi's side of the field. Dark Yugi corrected him saying it was not one of his cards he was bringing back, but Kaiba's and revived one of the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" cards.
The ventriloquist thought the equally matched dragons would have to destroy each other. However, due to the spell "Mystical Elf" had been chanting, Dark Yugi was able to transfer her ATK to another monster and he choose the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" he revived . His "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" attacked and destroyed the other one, defeating the ventriloquist.
- With the "Dark Magician" not powerful enough to compete with "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", Dark Yugi switched it to Defense Mode and then played "Curse of Dragon" in Defense Mode . Having expected that, the ventriloquist revealed his "Stop Defense" as he activated it forcing Dark Yugi's current and future monsters into Attack Mode .
- The ventriloquist Summoned the second "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" and used it to attack and destroy "Dark Magician" .
Dark Yugi was surprised, believing it was the same "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" at first, until the puppet continued to taunt him, reminding him that there were three "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" cards in the Deck.
- After pondering about what "Magical Hats" did, the ventriloquist concluded that "Dark Magician" was indeed hiding under one of them. He got "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" to attack to attack the one on his center right, but it turned out to be empty.
- The ventriloquist began to pick away at Dark Yugi's monsters and Life Points by having "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" attacking and destroying "Curse of Dragon" .
This left Dark Yugi in a brief start of panic as he began to lose sight of victory. Saruwatari joked about how Kaiba might be happily watching the Duel from Heaven. This prompted Mokuba to argue that Kaiba isn't dead and tell Dark Yugi that he had trusted him during Death-T, when he said Kaiba would come back and he had believed him. Having waited so long, he asked Dark Yugi where Kaiba is. Dark Yugi agreed with Mokuba, thinking he should have faith in Kaiba and thought to himself that he won't lose.
- Dark Yugi Summoned "Dark Magician" and got it to attack and destroy "Battle Ox" .
The ventriloquist had the puppet wail about how Dark Yugi got him. This disturbed Dark Yugi and he wondered how far the ventriloquist planned on taking his act. Dark Yugi's friends began to notice how the puppet was putting him off at this point.
- Dark Yugi got "Dark Magician" to emerge from its hat and attack and destroy "Blue-Eyes White Dragon". . Dark Yugi's friends celebrated him defeating what they believed to be the world's rarest card.
- Dark Yugi played the other of "Mirror Force" or "Monster Reborn" face-down in the Spell & Trap Card Zone and Summoned "Mystical Elf" in Attack Mode .
Looking at Dark Yugi's field, the ventriloquist thought the amount of monsters he had didn't matter, since Dark Yugi would lose if "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" destroyed just one of them. Jonouchi noted how he was getting a bad vibe off the Duel, which was hard to watch with the intensity. With face-down cards on both sides, Bakura bet that one of them was the trump card that would decide the Duel.
- Thinking that there are no cards left in his Deck that can defeat a "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", Dark Yugi thought he had lost. With limited options, he played "Feral Imp" in Attack Mode and expected defeat next turn.

The ventriloquist drew the third "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" and Summoned it .
"Blue-Eyes White Dragon" attacked "Mystical Elf", who had begun chanting a spell. Dark Yugi activates "Mirror Force" to reflect the attack back at "Blue-Eyes White Dragon", but the ventriloquist blocked it with "Negate Attack".
- Dark Yugi played "Spellbinding Circle" face-down under one of the hats. He explained that out of the three remaining hats, the "Dark Magician" is under one and the ventriloquist hits it, it'll be destroyed, but if he hits the wrong one, he may activate the Trap Card that was just Set.
- Facing odds of one-in-three, the ventriloquist attacked the middle hat. This turned out to contain "Spellbinding Circle", which ensnared the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" and reduced its ATK. .

The ventriloquist Summoned "Battle Ox" , which Dark Yugi recognized as a card also used by the real Kaiba.

The ventriloquist laughed that it was over and declared an attack on "Feral Imp". However "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" refused to attack, while at the same moment, over in Kaiba Manor, the real Kaiba woke from his coma. Standing up and disregarding the puppet, he demanded to know what was happening. The dragon then began to disappear and the dropped the puppet as he wondered what was happening. From this point onwards, the ventriloquist dueled without using the puppet. Dark Yugi suspected that this is to do with the real Kaiba, as he was confident that Kaiba's will to live existed in his cards.
Dark Yugi's friends celebrated the dragon's self-destruction. Anzu wondered why it happened and thought it was like Kaiba's card refused to attack, but Jonouchi said that was stupid, since cards can't think like people do. Saruwatari suspected some sort of malfunction in the Battle Box, but Mokuba said that KaibaCorp technology does not break that easily and that not just anybody was capable of using his brother's cards.
With no monsters left in play, Dark Yugi urged the ventriloquist to hurry-up and play one. The ventriloquist played "Grappler" in Defense Mode , hoping to play defensive until he drew the last "Blue-Eyes White Dragon".
