-->He got this intense look in his eyes, trying to make me believe. I open my mouth, close it again. When he looks at me like that... Okay, Yuugi. No saying words we don't need to say. I mean, we don't need to say anything, right? All I have to do is look in your eyes, and all you have to do is look in mine.\\

* While Seto can help Mokuba see Joey if he concentrates, and Yugi can see him through his connection to Yami Yugi, Tristan can't see or hear him no matter what Kaiba does. Joey thinks it's just as well since neither of them can stand each other.

-->He leaps onto me and tries to hug me. It's like he's trying to hug steam. Yugi freezes, but then he just sorta wraps his arms around where I should be. I can't even pretend to hug him back. He moves his legs so they're not in mine. "I missed you," he whispers.\\
I know. "I missed you too, Yug'." So why'd I hang out with Kaiba, instead? Man, here I am callin' Kaiba a lousy human being, but I'm not doing much better than he is.

* Joey's speech to [[spoiler:save Kaiba from being trapped in the Soul Room]]. Insulting him doesn't work, and when he tries to fight him he gets beat up. Joey realizes he has to be ruthless, so he slams him into a wall and tells Kaiba point-blank that even though he sucks, Mokuba thinks he's going to wake up, so Joey's going to ''make'' him wake up and there's nothing he can do to stop him.
