In his Duel, Joey plays luck-based cards. Johnson cheats by manipulating the die rolls and coin flips. After a while, Noah appears and tries to stop the Duel because of Johnson's cheating, but Joey convinces him to let the Duel continue as long as Johnson plays fairly. Kaiba and Mokuba, who have been transported to a beach, watch the confrontation on a television set lying in the sand. They hear Noah talk about proving himself to Gozaburo, which confuses them, since they never met Noah while living with him. Joey's final "gamble" comes from the effect of "Arduous Decision." Johnson has to pick one of Joey's cards, one resulting in his victory and the other in his defeat. When Johnson confidently chooses one, Joey's reactions trick him into second-guessing himself and picking the wrong card. Joey wins the Duel and is reunited with Yugi and Téa.
