Marik opts to have Joey send the Millennium Puzzle into the ocean but Joey struggles against his own inner self and ends up keeping the puzzle instead. However, Joey is still being controlled and brings out a strong Level 4 monster that Yugi manages to block and weaken with a combo of his own. Yugi then brings out a stronger monster that leaves Joey down to less than half his LP. Joey tries to make a comeback but half his dice combo is thwarted and he doesn't get a high roll with the other result. Unfortunately for Yugi, Joey draws the exact card needed to win the Duel. All Joey needs to do is play it and Marik will have possesion of the Millennium Puzzle and Slifer the Sky Dragon.
