Episode Synopsis[]
This episode contains some fanservice, as well as some minor plot devices, such as Joey not having a Duelist Kingdom "invitation card" and how Bandit Keith stole the card the Yugi gave Joey. However, for the most part, this episode contains material not directly related to the plot. Yugi has a nightmare about Mokuba, Kaiba, and his grandpa's souls. And Tea, Tristan, and Bakura wander around the castle and happen upon Pegasus's ritual attempt to bring back his wife. Upon being discovered, Yami Bakura emerges and wipes everyone's mind.
