Part 1

 * Yugi: Finally some peace and quiet for a change.
 * The Pharaoh: We needed this.
 * Yugi: Yeah. After everything we've been through, it feels nice just to kick back. Is something on your mind?
 * The Pharaoh: As a matter off act, Yugi, there is. It seems every time we restore peace to the world, a greater evil is waiting for us.
 * Yugi: Yeah, you got a point there. But look on the bright side. Every battle that we fight also brings us one step closer to figuring out the secrets of your past.
 * The Pharaoh: The three Egyptian God cards.
 * Yugi: Yup. They're back in our deck again, which means it's time for you and I to pick up where we left off. As soon as we get back home, we're going straight to that history museum. and these three cards are gonna give us some answers.
 * The Pharaoh: Let's hope so.

Part 2

 * Joey: Hey, hold on!! I know an insult when I hear one!! LOOK AT ME WHEN I'M YELLIN' AT YA!!

Part 1

 * Duke: Look! Joey's trying to scare the competition with his weird chicken dance.
 * Tea: I need some female friends.


 * Kaiba: I know one of these punks is trying to ruin me! and before this tournament is over I'm gonna find out who!

Child's Play

 * Vivian: I'll go first!
 * Rebecca: You'll need a headtstart!
 * Vivian: [draws] Ha! I summon Kung Fu Nyan Nyan in attack mode! Top that, shrimp!
 * Rebecca: No problem! Look out! Time to activate a little magic card. Graceful Charity. Now I get to draw three new cards, as long as I discard two from my hand. Next, I think I'll summon my Fire Princess in attack mode!

Part 1

 * Joey Wheeler: The only thing I'm scared of is that hairdo. [turns to Zigried] Hey, buddy! Pinky the Clown called! He wants his ring back!
 * Rebecca Hawkins: Oh, like you're in any position to be making fun of anyone's hairdo.
 * Joey Wheeler: I heard that!
 * Duke Devlin: Take it down a notch, will you? You're too high-strung to duel.
 * Joey Wheeler: Who you callin' high-strung?! I'm cool as a cucumber!
 * Tristan Taylor: Oh, yeah. Real cool.
 * Joey Wheeler: I'm not in a mood!
 * Tristan Taylor: You want a piece of me? [he and Joey scuffle]
 * Tea Gardner: [attempts to break up the scuffling duo] Can you two grow up for five minutes? [she gets pinned against the wall] I need some female friends!
 * Joey Wheeler and Tristan Taylor: [in unison] He started it!

Part 1

 * Joey: I was knocked out of the tournament by a guy with pink hair!?
 * Tristan: A guy with pink hair who's an EXCERPT DUELIST.
 * Joey: I wanna be Number One!
 * Tea: Oh, will you grow up!? Trust me, there'll be other Duels!
 * Joey: You're not runner up every year! That honor belongs to me!


 * Leon: Here's one you might remember from your bedtime stories. You guessed it! It's Cinderella! And thanks to her fairy godmother, she'll be able to go to the ball. Cinderella automatically lets me summon my Pumpkin Carriage to the field.
 * Rebecca: Ugh!
 * Leon: With my Pumpkin Carriage in play, Cinderella receives a thousand point boost. Oh, and where would she be without her glass slippers?

Part 2

 * Vivian: Just as I thought. I knew you couldn't resist my charm! All right, if you defeat me, then your Grandpa walks. If you lose, we go on a date.
 * Tea: (infuriated): ALL RIGHT, THAT'S IT! I'VE HEARD JUST ABOUT ENOUGH OUT OF YOU, TOOTS!! GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD!! YUGI DOESN'T LIKE YOU AND HE NEVER WILL!!
 * Joey: All right. Just breathe.


 * Tristan: Even if Yugi loses, at least he gets a date.
 * Tea: YUGI WON'T LOSE!!! SO DROP THE DATE THING!!!


 * The Pharaoh: We'll see! I draw! All right, first I'll summon my Skilled Dark Magician to the field in Attack Mode!! Second, I activate Pot of Greed, which lets me draw 2 more cards from my Deck! (The first Spell Counter lights up on the Skilled Dark Magician) Then, I'll play this - the Emblem of Dragon Destroyer! It lets me bring Buster Blader back to my hand! (Now another Spell Counter lights up on the Skilled Dark Magician)
 * Vivian: What are those lights?!
 * The Pharaoh: They're Spell Counters! With every Magic Card I play, another one lights up! (Vivian gasps) I'm afraid there's more! My final Magic Card! It's known as Monster Reincarnation! So Dark Magician's back in my Deck! (The third and final Spell Counter lights up on the Skilled Dark Magician) And now all 3 of my Spell Counters are glowing! So I can sacrifice my Skilled Dark Magician in order to summon Dark Magician! There's more. I play Polymerization, fusing my Dark Magician with my Buster Blader! Behold the creature of your demise - my Dark Paladin! And there's one more thing you should know: Dark Paladin gets 500 ATK points for every Dragon on the field and in our Graveyards.
 * Vivian: THAT CAN'T BE! I JUST SENT 4 OF MY DRAGONS TO MY CARD GRAVEYARD! IT'S NOT FAIR! (Dark Paladin's ATK strength increases to 4,900 points)
 * The Pharaoh: Oh, it's quite fair. Now, Dark Paladin, wipe out her Dragon Lady and her life points!! Game over.

Getting Played

 * Solomon: See ya next week!
 * Yugi: Where are you off to!?
 * Solomon: Oh right. I'm going on a secret expedition.
 * Yugi: You never told me anything about that.
 * Solomon: [chuckles] That's what makes it a secret.

Spiritual Awakening

 * [Yami Bakura has sent the souls of Rex Raptor and Weevil Underwood to the Shadow Realm, after they stole a bag from Yugi, containing the Millenium Items Yugi has gathered so far, mistakingly believing the bag contains the Egyptian God Cards instead of the Millenium Items]
 * Yugi: Bakura, what have you done to them?
 * Yami Bakura: [chuckles]
 * Yugi: [demanding] Answer me!
 * Yami Bakura: These two delinquents received exactly what they deserved, Yugi. They took possession of something that didn't belong to them, so I banished their souls to the Shadow Realm. [kicks the unconscious bodies] And I'd say the punishment fit the crime.
 * Yugi: [horrified] You sent them to the Shadow Realm?
 * Yami Bakura: You should be showing a little more gratitude. After all I returned your belongings. Well, most of them.
 * Yugi: What's that mean!?
 * (Bakura shows him the Millennium Ring)
 * Yami Bakura: Take a look. There was one item in your bag of tricks that I'm not quite ready to part with. Besides it did belong to me at one time.
 * Yugi: Give it back! The Millenium Items belong together!
 * Yami Bakura: Eventually, they will be. In the meantime, why don't you concentrate on gathering other items instead of pestering me and when the times is right, I'll give you the Millenium Ring. We may not be fond of each other, but we do share a common goal: We both want all seven Millennium Items returned to their resting place, united once again within the Millennium Stone, just as they were so long ago.
 * Yugi: I don't trust you! And I never will! I'm collecting the Millennium Items so I can help the Pharaoh save the world from destruction!
 * Yami Bakura: And I gather you think that I have a different goal in mind. Believe whatever you wish. But remember, I know things about the past that your Pharaoh friend seems to have forgotten.
 * Yugi: Oh yeah? And what kind of things are those!!?
 * Yami Bakura: I know that when the seven Millennium Items are returned to the Stone, a doorway to the spirit world will open.
 * Yugi: [thinking] The spirit world? If that exists, it could be where the spirit of the Pharaoh belongs. [to Yami Bakura] Are you saying that when this doorway opens, the Pharaoh will be set free?
 * Yami Bakura: You're catching on! So don't you want to help your friend? After all he's spirit's been trapped inside that puzzle for five thousand years.
 * Yugi: Of course I do!!
 * Yugi: Of course I do!!


 * (The Pharaoh takes over)
 * The Pharaoh: [demanding] That's enough! Stop poisoning Yugi's mind!
 * Yami Bakura: Ah, Pharaoh. To what do I owe this honor? Did you come here so we can bury the hatchet and join forces?
 * The Pharaoh: [angrily] You know better than that!!
 * Yami Bakura: I know why you hate me. Because when you get right down to it, you and I are more alike than you'd care to admit. Isn't that right, Pharaoh?
 * The Pharaoh: [annoyed] We are nothing alike!!
 * Yami Bakura: We're both five thousand-year-old spirits aren't we? Each one inhabiting the body of an innocent civilian? The only difference is: I remember my past. All your mind contains is an endless labyrinth of questions. Your whole life has been nothing more than a puzzle wrapped in a game and I happen to know the solution. It's quite ironic, actually. The only way you can solve that game is by playing a game.
 * The Pharaoh: I don't know if you speak the truth, but I'll do whatever I have to! Game or no game! I will unlock my mind!
 * Yami Bakura: Well, then best of luck. You're going to need it when the ultimate Shadow Game begins. Enjoy your travels, Pharaoh. (Thinking) That encounter went exactly as planned. Now on to phase two.

[Yami Bakura has sent Mokuba's soul to the Shadow Realm in order to force Seto Kaiba into a duel]

Seto Kaiba: Mokuba...

Yami Bakura: I would tell you where is soul is but you don't believe in the Shadow Realm, right?

Seto Kaiba: Whatever you did to my brother, you'd better undo. Did you understand me, Bakura? As soon as I defeat you, I want him back! Now, let's get your little game over with!

Yami Bakura: [chuckles] As you wish.

Seto Kaiba: You're about to regret this.

Yami Bakura: We'll see...

Seto Kaiba and Yami Bakura: [in unison] Let's duel! [Yami Bakura and Seto Kaiba prepare to duel, when the fogs of the Shadow Realm appear]

Yami Bakura: [mockingly] What's wrong? There's no such thing as magic, right? And all those ancient visions you've been having, they don't exist either, do they?

Seto Kaiba: [annoyed] Not that Egyptian speech again. When are you people gonna realize that I focus on the future. [firmly] I don't waste my time WORRYING ABOUT THE PAST!!!

Yami Bakura: [chuckles] That attitude of yours hasn't changed in over 5 000 years.

Seto Kaiba: [furiously] THAT'S ENOUGH!!!

Yami Bakura: [thinking] Just give me a little time, Seto Kaiba. I'll make a believer out of you. When this Shadow Game comes to a close, not only will you accept your ancient heritage, you'll long to return to your roots. [Bakura starts the duel by playing "Polymerization" in order to fuse "The Earl of Demise" with "Headless Knight" in order to Fusion Summon "The Duke of Demise" in attack mode]

Yami Bakura: But the rules forbid me to attack you. I suppose you got off easy this time.

Seto Kaiba: [unimpressed] Please, it'll take a lot more than a rotting carcass with a sword to intimidate me. [Seto Kaiba attacks Yami Bakura's "The Duke of Demise" after first cutting its attack points in half with the magic card "Shrink", but Yami Bakura's "The Duke of Demise" remains on the field, since it cannot be destroyed by battle]

Seto Kaiba: My attack may have not destroyed your monster but it did remove 900 of your life points.

Yami Bakura: [laughs] And you think that worries me?

Seto Kaiba: I wouldn't be laughing if I were you.

Yami Bakura: And why is that?

Seto Kaiba: Well, for one, you're about to lose another 500 of your lifepoints thanks to your friend "The Duke of Demise". Is that reason enough for you?

Yami Bakura: No, because I have something far worse in store. First, I'll sacrifice my Duke in order to summon my "Diabound Kernel". Then I'll activate the magic card "Spirit Illusion". It creates what's known as a doppelganger, an exact duplicate of my monster, complete with all the power of the original.

Seto Kaiba: [sarcastically] Wow. So, now you've got two useless monsters.

Yami Bakura: We'll see about that! Go, Doppelganger Diabound! [uses the special ability of the duplicate Diabound Kernel] 

Memoirs of a Pharaoh

 * Ishizu: May I speak with the Pharaoh? My King, it is an honor. You have returned home. Allow me to be your guide.
 * Pharaoh: Please. The pleasure's mine.



Makings of a Magician

 * Bakura: How can a mere spell-caster damage my Diabound!?
 * Mahad: I refuse to allow Bakura to threaten my people, even if it means depleting my own powers. I must stop him! In the name the Pharaoh.



Birth of the Blue Eyes

 * Isis: Mana, Mahad's spirit is very much alive; existing deep inside that stone. In fat, he's even stronger now. My Millennium Necklace has shown me all. He fused himself together with his most trusted creature.
 * Mana: What? I'm confused.
 * Isis: Mahad has been transformed. He will now be known as the Dark Magician.
 * Mana: Dark Magician? But my training is incomplete! And I need Master Mahad! I want to become an elite spell-caster! I can't do it alone!!


 * Seto: Wait. There is something familiar about this girl.

In Search of a King

 * Shimon Muran: What a beautiful blessing this day has brought us, my king.

The Name of the Game

 * Joey: It says bird, rock, lambchop, bird, and a bigger bird

Part 1

 * Yami Bakura: [about Yugi's "Marshmallon" monster] Is that a monster or a desert topping?

Part 2

 * Yami Bakura: [laughs evilly] Perhaps, you could've used the Pharaoh's help after all... [viciously] you PATHETIC MORTAL!!! [laughs evilly]

Part 3

 * [After Yami Bakura has activated the magic card "Counterbalance", which forces both players to send cards equal to the number of monsters on the field from the top of their Deck to the Graveyard by the end of their turn. An effect that would eventually lead into a deckout. Yugi questions Yami Bakura why would he risk losing all the cards in his own deck also, not knowing that the effect of "Counterbalance" doesn't affect to Yami Bakura, because he no longer has a graveyard due to the "Cursed Twin Dolls" magic card, he played earlier]


 * Yugi: It doesn't make any sense!


 * Yami Bakura: [laughs evilly] To work, it requires a graveyard and I don't have one. [mockingly] Guess that means I can't participate. I feel so left out. So, you're in this alone! Get it? This card only drains your deck!

In the Name of the Pharaoh

 * Joey: Great. We have the power to fly but we can't get a decent meal.


 * Zorc: The Egyptian Gods are powerless against me! You already tried this and failed!
 * Pharaoh Atem: Yes. But there's one thing I didn't do last time time: Merge them together! Now I give you, the Creator of Light!
 * Zorc: What!!? Impossible!!
 * Pharaoh Atem: Darkness, be gone!!


 * Tea: So what happens now? I mean now you've saved the world?
 * Atem: Wait for the next bad guy?
 * Creator of Light: No, Atem. There will not be another. You have destroyed from where all evil is born.
 * Pharaoh Atem: So I'm done?
 * Creator of Light: No. But you are close. With the help of your friends, you'll nearly fulfilled your destiny. You have but one more task to complete before your spirit can return to its resting place.

The Final Journey

 * Pharaoh Atem (thinking): Seto, according to the inscription on this tablet, you became a great pharaoh in own right. You kept my father's dream alive by maintaining peace in Egypt. And knowning this, my spirit can finally go to its resting place.
 * Yugi: "Wait! What are you saying?"
 * Pharaoh Atem: "I think you know, Yugi."


 * Pharaoh Atem: "Yes. Now I must seal them all away so I can enter the spirit world."
 * Tea: "You're leaving us?"
 * Pharaoh Atem: "This is the final step of my mission, Tea."
 * Tea: "I guess I always knew. I mean, you came back here after all this time so you could save the world. And now that you've done that, you can finally rest."


 * Tea (thinking): I know this is what's best for the Pharaoh. He doesn't belong in this world. And now that he has his memory back, he can finally be free. But secretly, I keeping hoping Yugi's gonna lose, so the Pharaoh has to stay.



The Final Duel

 * This is the 4-part fifth season finale.

Part 4

 * This is followed by The Dark Side of Dimensions movie, which takes place a few years later.
 * Atem (thinking): This was the greatest duel of my life. It's been an honor, Yugi.


 * Duke: What's Yugi waiting for? All he has to do is attack and the duel is over.
 * Bakura: That's just it. Once his Magician attacks, the Pharaoh will be released and we'll never see him again.

<hr width80%>
 * Duke: Wait! So did Yugi win the duel?
 * Ishizu: If this attack is successful, then yes!

<hr width80%>
 * Atem: Congratulations. Well done. Yugi, a champion doesn't stand on his knees. You've achieved a great victory for us both.
 * Yugi (in tears): I was focusing so hard on playing the game, that I forgot what winning this duel would actually mean. By defeating you, I sent you away. For good.
 * Atem: No, you have opened the door for me. Thanks to you, my spirit can finally be at rest. I'll be back where I belong. Fate brought the two of us together for a reason. And we fulfilled our destiny:
 * We protected mankind from the return of the Shadow Games.
 * Yugi: I'm gonna miss you.
 * Atem: You do realize we will never truly be apart, right? The gift of kindness you have me and the courage I've given you will remain with us.
 * Yugi: Right.

<hr width80%>
 * Joey: At least give me one of your little rap-up speeches, Yug.
 * Yugi: Well, sometimes the end of one adventure is just the beginning of another.
 * Joey: Ah, much better.
