Turn ?: Rex

Rex attacks "Jeweled Red Dragon Archfiend" with "Dragoascension, Supreme Dragon of the Heavens", but Jack activates the effect of "Absolute King Back Jack" from his Graveyard, which he had previously discarded: by banishing it from his Graveyard, Jack draws a card, and if it is a Trap Card, he may activate it immediately.
