Yu-Gi-Oh! GX - Episode 125

Triple Play - Part 2, known as Johan, Jim and O'Brien VS The Three Masked Knights in the Japanese version, is the one hundred and twenty-fifth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime. Axel Brodie realizes that the Three Masked Knights are simply a distraction, and urges Jim Crocodile Cook and Jesse Anderson to stop their duels and attempt to stop Marcel Bonaparte from reaching his true objective.

Summary
The duels between Jesse Anderson, Jim Crocodile Cook and Axel Brodie against the Three Masked Knights continue, with both the food storage facility and power supply station on the line. Vice Chancellor Bonaparte attempts to sneak back into Duel Academy, but is spotted by Blair Flannigan, who informs Jaden Yuki. The two of them chase after him, as they realize he would be a very strong opponent if he was turned into a Duel Ghoul.

Axel wins his duel quickly, and determines that these duels means nothing and that they are only meant to serve as a distraction as Marcel Bonaparte moves towards his true goal. He urges Jim and Jesse to surrender, so they can save time and go after Marcel. Impassivity Mask stops Jesse from leaving with a strange beam fired from his duel disk, while Jim is stopped from surrendering by the angry students, who want the food Marcel promised them if they win. Axel leaves and gathers his "Blue Beret" unit together, heading towards the power supply station.

Jim and Jesse win their own duels with some difficulty. Bonaparte reaches Marcel, followed by Jaden and Blaire. When Jaden tries to drag Marcel back, Bonaparte reveals that Marcel is his son and vows not to let Jaden harm him. Marcel reveals the Devil Arm from under his cloak and suggests that they leave. A large group of Duel Ghouls emerges behind them from over the sands. Marcel uses the Devil Arm to punch through the sand, and a deep fissure forms as the pillars surrounding the area where the Sacred Beasts were sealed rise from the sands.

Mistakes in the English version

 * Axel stated that "Fire Recovery" lets him summon a different FIRE monster from his Graveyard. It lets him summon any FIRE monster.
 * Axel also said that "Volcanic Scattershot" deals 500 damge when it's removed. It does this when it's sent to the Graveyard
 * Masked Knight of Laughter called his "Burial from a Different Dimension" a Trap Card. It is a Spell Card.
