02x08 - Foolish Fans

[bunniefuu]

Quattrowhich of my fabulous fans should I take on today?

So many potential targets to choose from.

Quintonyour attitude seriously concerns me, quattro.

Watching your fans squirm really does give

You a charge, doesn't it?

I believe you're jealous, quinton.

Hey, it isn't my fault I'm popular.

Besides, those chumps get what they deserve.

And I have to make my work interesting somehow, since

There's never a chance I'll lose.

Don't be so sure of that, quattro.

Your arrogance will be your downfall.

If you don't like how I operate, then maybe you should start

Collecting numbers.

I will, once the opponents get tougher.

Really?

So you think you're a better duelist than me, huh?

Grab your deck and let's find out.

Treyalright, that's enough, quattro.

We're brothers.

We shouldn't be amongst ourselves.

Mind your own business, pipsqueak.

Vetrixno! Trey happens to be right.

I approve of your self-confidence, quattro.

But you must learn to better exercise self-control like the

Others.

Excuse me?

Why does it matter what you actually think?

Watch it, quattro.

What's that?

You will show vetrix some respect.

You won't talk to him that way.

Fine, quinton.

I take it you understand what your mission is today,

Don't you, trey?

Yes, brother.

The duelist they call shark is still trying to track down

Quattro.

Better hold on to this number card.

I have a feeling that you'll be running into each other very

Soon.

Right. I understand.

Dr. Faker, someday I'll take everything from you,

Just like you took everything from us.

Quinton,

Just make sure faker doesn't find out about me.

He thinks I'm gone. I want to leave it that way

Till the day I reveal myself.

Mr. Heartlandgreetings from heartland city!

Welcome all!

It's day two of the world duel carnival!

Today, you can make your dreams come true.

Just make sure that you all duel with lots and lots of heart!

Good luck!

Yumayes!

I'm gonna sweep this tournament!

Lillybotdream on, yuma!

Sweeping is my job.

Well I'm doing pretty awesome so far.

See this?

Is that garbage?

It looks broken.

No, it's for the tournament and

I have three heart pieces already.

If I keep winning, I'm a shoe in for the finals.

I am so feelin' the flow!

Torifirst, make sure you win your next duel.

Bronkpick up the pace, caswell!

Caswellwait up, bronk!

They're in a rush,

Wonder what's up?

Pizza shop must be givin' out free slices.

Yes!

Come on, flatfoot!

Slow down...

Ouch!

I meant to do that.

Quit goofin' around,

We don't wanna be late!

Yo!

Where are you speedin' off to?

Hey guys!

Haven't you heard?

Quattro's gonna be here.

Who's quattro?

He's like one of the best duelists in the world.

He rules!

Quattro faced off against shark in the finals of

The nationals!

That was him?

Astralwe must be cautious when dealing

With this individual, yuma.

Quattro just challenged bronk and me to duel.

Isn't that awesome?

You guys should turn him down.

Are you kidding?

Somebody told me that quattro doesn't play by the rulebook.

He is one of the most honest duelists that you'll ever meet.

This duel is a dream come true.

He's our hero!

Losing to him will be a tremendous honor!

Hey, we're gonna be late!

Oh yeah, I almost forgot.

Move it or lose it, nd place!

Hey!

Wait, we're comin' too!

This is a strange place to have a duel.

Quattro picked the spot.

Probably wanted someplace quiet to avoid his fans.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

Uh... I guess.

Togetherquattro!

I can't believe it's really you.

You must be caswell and bronk.

My apologies for being late.

Shall we get started, my friends?

Yeah, but before we do...

Can I have your autograph?

Me too, me too!

With pleasure.

I get a thrill out of spoiling my fans.

Is this okay?

Quattro, I can't thank you enough.

Don't forget me!

Here. Happy?

Very!

Now let's get dueling.

Hey bronk, who do you think should go first?

I dunno...

I suppose all three of us could duel at once.

We can have a battle royale,

And put all our heart pieces on the line.

A battle royale?

Interesting.

Under battle royale rules, all three duelists will compete

Against each other.

But quattro must think that bronk and caswell will both try

To defeat him.

So in effect, this will really be a two-on-one duel.

Even though quattro is more experienced, the odds will be

Against him.

I just love spoiling my fans.

I want this duel to be special for you.

There's even a chance that together you could beat me.

It should be a memorable matchup!

Guess they were right.

Quattro is cool!

All set?

Yeah!

Duel disk go!

Get ready!

I'm not holding back, so get set for the most intense duel of

Your lives!

Duel gazer let's roll!

Let's duel!

I'll let you two go first.

But wait, the duelist who goes last is at a big disadvantage in

A battle royale.

I guess he's giving us another break.

I'll make the first move.

Here goes!

I draw, and I'm summoning the monster aye-iron!

But under the rules of a battle royale, nobody can attack until

All the duelists take one turn.

So I'm done.

It's your move, caswell.

Okey-dokey,

I draw!

And first I'm summoning debugger x!

And now it's your turn, quattro.

Well well,

You've chosen very unusual monsters.

Nice work, you guys.

I can see you're both shrewd and creative.

Did you hear that?

He just praised us, bronk.

I know, but we should keep our guards up.

Now gentlemen, I draw!

I place a monster facedown in defense mode.

But I'm not done yet.

Next I'll place two more cards facedown.

And finally, I activate the field spell xyz colosseum!

This spell boosts the attack points of all xyz monsters in

The colosseum by two hundred points,

But if your monster isn't an xyz monster, then you're out of luck

Because it can't attack.

And now I end my turn.

This field looks old and creepy.

Why did quattro choose this field for a confrontation?

It is true that his xyz monsters will have more power, but so

Will the xyz monsters of his opponents.

I see what he's up to.

You can't summon an xyz monster till you have at least two

Monsters with the same level.

That's why quattro did it.

He played his field spell to stop our att*cks till he draws

The cards he needs.

Unless, we outsmart him.

Hey quattro, check this!

I'm summoning tin goldfish!

And now I can summon a twin of my tin!

Cause once I summon one tin goldfish, I can play another one

Right away!

Here's tin goldfish number two!

Bronk is trying to use quattro's strategy against him.

Go for it!

Now I'll take my tin goldfish and aye-iron, and overlay them!

Now I can build the overlay network,

And that means I can xyz summon!

So say hello to tin archduke!

Excellent!

You're a lot quicker on the draw than I expected, bronk.

That was just the warm-up act quattro!

Since tin archduke is an xyz monster, colosseum's effect

Makes it stronger by two hundred attack points!

And that's not all,

I activate its special ability!

Now I can use one overlay unit and pull a switcheroo on your

Monster's battle mode!

Oh my, it looks like you've outmaneuvered me again, bronk.

You certainly are a talented duelist.

Wow!

Thanks quattro!

Nice goin'! The duel just got started and quattro has praised

You twice already!

I'm changing quattro's facedown monster in defense mode to

Attack mode.

Gentlemen, say hello to my gimmick puppet princess.

That monster has zero attack points.

This is gonna be a breeze.

I can't miss!

Okay archduke,

Attack that gimmick puppet princess!

Blade bop!

I activate the puppet repair trap card!

This trap comes in handy when a puppet monster that's level four

Or lower gets destroyed.

It lets me summon the same monster from my deck.

So here's another gimmick puppet princess!

Okay, then I'll just pull the ol' reverse-o-rama trick again!

Use your special ability tin archduke!

By using an overlay unit, I'll change your monster's battle

Mode, so now your puppet's in attack mode!

Amazing!

Your monster can actually use its special ability more than

Once a turn?

This isn't looking good for me.

Oh wow!

I can hardly believe it!

I know.

If bronk and caswell keep up the pressure, they could pull off an

Upset!

My turn now!

I draw!

Quattro really messed up!

This is too easy!

With no attack points, his monster's a sitting duck!

In the end, any attack at all will pulverize his puppet.

And if I use an attack that's at least points, we'll win the

Duel.

I summon debugger z in attack mode!

Here's where the real fun begins.

Cause if there's a debugger x on the field when I summon my

Debugger z, then I can also summon my debugger y!

Yikes!

That makes three level monsters!

Guess you know what's coming next, quattro!

I'm overlaying all three debuggers,

And now I build the overlay network and xyz summon!

Here comes antidote nurse!

And now,

Thanks to the colosseum field spell, antidote nurse gets a

Booster of two hundred attack points!

Just what the doctor ordered.

Get that princess, antidote nurse.

Oh no,

What am I going to do?

Oh yeah!

They won!

Great teamwork, caswell!

All right!

We beat quattro!

My congratulations.

Your att*cks have been truly amusing.

But they were hardly enough to defeat me.

Hold on,

Caswell destroyed his monster.

Interesting.

Yeah, how did you survive?

I simply activated my gimmick box trap as soon as you

att*cked.

Not only don't I take any damage from your attack, but this trap

Card then transforms into a monster card.

And that's not the only surprise I have in store.

Remember the amount of damage I would have taken?

That becomes my monster's attack points instead.

You should forget about this duel, brother.

It's clear they don't have any number cards.

Or else they would have used them already.

Number cards?

I see!

Quattro and his brother must be number hunters!

Now my friends, since I can't take any numbers from you, I'll

Enjoy watching you squirm instead.

Say what?

What does that mean?

How many times do I have to tell you I love spoiling my fans?

And when I say spoiled, I mean really spoiled!

You're finished!

I have to admit you two are pretty good,

Better than most of the chumps I've faced.

Unfortunately, your dueling skills are still far below mine.

Even working together, you're not good enough to beat me!

Gimmick puppet scarecrow, come out!

Next I activate the spell card level doubler!

Now I can send one of the cards in my hand to the graveyard to

Double my puppet scarecrow's level from to !

Are you feeling the thrill yet?

And now it's time to end this duel.

I overlay level gimmick box and gimmick puppet scarecrow in

Order to build the overlay network!

I xyz summon number : gimmick puppet giant grinder.

He really is a number hunter.

There's more.

Don't forget xyz colosseum gives my giant two hundred more attack

Points.

And then my giant can activate its special ability.

By using an overlay unit, it can target the xyz monsters you

Activated and destroy them!

Your nightmare is just beginning though, because the attack

Points of the destroyed monster are then dealt to you as damage!

Damage?

That's attack points coming your way.

This duel's been fun, you fools.

Fire away!

This duel's been fun, you fools!

Oh no, bronk!

You're next, small fry!

Sorry I have to destroy your antidote nurse.

But don't worry, all her power will be coming right back at

You! Blast away!

I won't be happy until all my fans get exactly what they

Deserve.

You two twerps are going down with a big bang!

I activate my two gimmick puppet princess' special abilities from

My graveyard.

I banish them to summon two monsters from your graveyards

Back to your fields.

First up, tin archduke.

He's going after their monsters again!

And because my colosseum's effect will increase tin

Archduke's attack points, there's even more power I can

Turn against you.

Of course!

Quattro has set up a perfect attack loop!

Wait, what do you mean?

He can use their monsters against them again?

Correct.

Your friends are helpless.

My fans are no different from the puppet monsters contained in

My deck.

They're helpless to resist my will, and I'm pulling all the

Strings!

Once again my giant will destroy your feeble monsters,

And end this duel!

Quattro set this trap up from the beginning of the match.

He tricked bronk and caswell into choosing monsters that he

Could use against them.

His strategy is devious, but quite effective.

They've lost.

It's not over yet.

I still have a lot more spoiling to do.

Go giant grinder!

Hold on, your duel is over!

Sorry, but this duel isn't finished until I decide it is!

Now giant grinder,

Final dance!

Guys!

This is horrible.

Come on, you guys. Wake up. Wake up!

This is not good.

Everything's going to be okay, bronk.

But what about... Caswell?

Please hang on.

You maniac!

They looked up to you!

Why did you do this to them?

Let's just say that I find it highly entertaining.

That does it!

Quattro, I'm challenging you now!

Get ready to duel!

Does this mean you've become a fan, too?

Sharkhello quattro.

What's shark doing here?

You were hard to find.

But now that I've hunted you down quattro,

Let's duel!
