Go To

  • Achilles' Heel: Chazz and Alexis mock Jaden that his weakness is using his brain.
  • Beat Them at Their Own Game: In the end, Bob resurrects one of his monsters and tries to wipe out the rest of Jaden's life points by battle, only for Jaden to activate a trap card that forces Bob to randomly chose which monster he'll attack, essentially putting Bob in the contestant seat. Bob unfortunately chooses the stronger Flame Wingman and loses.
    Bob: You can't ask the host a question!
  • Chekhov's Gun: The quiz card Bob dropped earlier appears during the duel giving Jaden a chance to win the duel if he can name three special methods of winning a duel...
  • Honor Before Reason: ...However, Jaden decides to intentionally get it wrong. Since Bob told him the third method earlier and doesn't want to rely on someone else.
  • Sudden Gameplay Change: Bob's quiz cards invoke this by turning the duel into an impromptu game show. His monster cards represent panels on a game show board, and attacking them forces Jaden to either answer a question or perform a challenge. Failure causes him to lose life points based on the difficulty and point value of the panel, while winning causes Bob to lose life points. Bob also has spell and trap cards imitating bonus rounds and questions.
