Yugi replies , " No , why ? " Sugoroku reminds him that the glyphs on the puzzle ' s box say " Thou who completes me will receive my dark knowledge and power . " Yugi excitedly says that ' s right , his wish came true , and that he had made friends . Sugoroku ponders , thinking that can ' t be the dark knowledge and power . At Domino City Jail , an escape is reported . The escapee , Jiro the Jorogumo escapes while disguised as Tetsu Tasaki by attacking a guard . He slips past the police , now disguised in one of the uniforms . He makes his escape in a squad car , where he listens to the police reports , which are stating Tetsu Tasaki , also known as Tetsu the Hedgehog , is the one who escaped . After class ends , Jonouchi calls Yugi over and asks where they should go on the way home . Yugi suggests Burger World , since he has good reports of the place . Honda appears before the two boys and reminds them that stopping on the way home is against school rules . Miho Nosaka rushes over saying that she ' d like to go to Burger World . Hearing Miho , Honda quickly changes his mind . Anzu tries to discourage them , saying that the place is terrible , people started getting sick the day it opened and they absolutely cannot go there . She then reminds them what the teacher said about an escaped convict on the loose , so they should probably go straight home . Miho gets anxious , and tells Jonouchi that they say the convict has a gun . Anzu slips out of the room , letting out a sigh of relief . Jonouchi and Yugi remark that Anzu has been acting strange lately , noting that she hasn ' t walked home with them recently . Jonouchi wonders if she is going on . Miho starts to worry about Anzu and decides to follow her home . The real Tetsu Tasaki cracks open a safe at Ushijima Finance . He is surprised to find it already empty . Later at a restaurant , Tasaki hears on Morning Asa that a number of banks have been robbed , with the robber making off with 30 million yen and that dental work has indicated it to be the recently escaped Tatsu Tasaki . Jonouchi talks about a game that ' s so difficult , he hasn ' t even been able to complete the first level . He tells the others they should try it . Miho and Anzu make a vague excuse and leave . Jonouchi comments that Miho has become Anzu ' s fellow date for hire . Honda scolds Jonouchi and Yugi reproach Jonouchi . Jonouchi calls them naive and points out that Anzu could afford an expensive lunch earlier , so she must be making money . Honda is shocked and wonders if it ' s possible Miho could be doing such a thing . He follows the girls , hoping to save Miho . Tasaki steals a necklace he believes was once worn by . While driving he hears on the car radio that the stolen necklace was an imitation . There were also thirty jewels missing , and the suspect is again Tetsu Tasaki . Jonouchi invites Honda to come play basketball . Honda says he ' s busy and leaves with the girls . Yugi asks Jonouchi if he ' s going to say Honda is also going on enjo kōsai . Jonouchi considers that Honda might be seeing a rich lady . They follow Honda and the girls ' trail to Burger World . As they enter Anzu , Miho and Honda , in Burger World uniforms , meet them at the door and begin to welcome them . Jonouchi reminds Honda that having a part time job is against school rules and Honda ' s the one who always insists on the rules . Honda says that he needed the job . Another worker at the restaurant calls over to them , telling them to bring the customers to their seats . As Jonouchi and Yugi wait at their seats , Yugi is concerned that coming here has embarrassed the others . Jonouchi says that it serves them right for keeping this a secret . Meanwhile Jiro approaches the restaurant with a detective believing him to be Tetsu Tasaki searching for him . Anzu serves the boys their burgers . After placing the tray in front of them , she squirts ketchup onto the burgers , writing " I won ' t forgive you if you blab " . She tells them she ' s saving money so that she can study dance in New York after she graduates . They assure her they won ' t laugh or tell . Jonouchi grumbles about having to pay for burgers drowned in ketchup , but Anzu says that they ' re on her . The detective enters the restaurant and informs the staff that the escaped convict might be in this restaurant . Yugi and Jonouchi come over to see what ' s happening . The detective shows them a picture of Tetsu Tasaki , but also points out that the convict is a master of disguise and it ' s rare to see him out of disguise . The detective tells them that after stealing the jewels , the convict struggled with a guard , so he may have a mark on his right calf . Anzu directs their attention to a basket of toy cars , saying they can use them . They drop the basket , pretending it to be an accident , causing the cars to go all over the restaurant , under many tables . Anzu , Jonouchi and Honda go to gather up the cars , checking the customers legs as they search under the tables . The detective then tells the gang that the culprit has an allergic reaction to eggs . Anzu points out that they should be able to find him with no problem , since the hamburger buns all have egg in them . One of the customers overhears and begins to worry . The detective grabs and unmasks him , saying that he is under arrest . Anzu admits to lying about the egg . The criminal , Tetsu Tasaki , tackles the detective , knocking over a staff member . He notices a bruise on his calf and realizes this must be the man who was beating him to the crimes . He tears the back of the staff ' s uniform , revealing a large spider tattoo , exposing him as Jiro the Jorogumo . Jiro gets to his feet and grabs Tasaki ' s gun . He takes Anzu hostage , holding the gun to her head . Jiro explains that he had seen Tetsu Tasaki here before . He could recognize him even with his disguise and tell what places he was about to rob . He had committed the two robberies before Tetsu . Jiro tells everyone to get down . He blindfolds Anzu and sits the two of them down , keeping her at gunpoint . He orders Yugi to get him a drink and a smoke . Anzu tells him to stay back , but gets slapped for doing so . Upset by having one of his friends attacked , Yami Yugi comes out . Yugi brings the drink and cigarettes , plops himself into the seat across from Jiro , and says that he wants to play a game . Anzu is surprised , realizing the voice is too confident to be Yugi . Jiro accepts the challenge . Yugi explains that each player can only use one finger . Jiro chooses his trigger finger . Yugi picks his right thumb . Jiro starts to pour out his drink . Yugi explains that after the game starts , you can do whatever you like , even pull the trigger . Jiro laughs and prepares to pull the trigger , but Yugi lights the cigarette lighter , reminding Jiro his cigarette has yet to be lit . After lighting the cigarette , Yugi places the lighter on Jiro ' s hand , which is still pouring the alcohol . Jiro sees that if he moves the lighter will fall , setting him alight . Yugi gets up and takes Anzu with him . Jiro takes the lighter off his hand , grabs his gun , and points it at Yugi . But for breaking the rules Yugi inflicts a Penalty Game , making Jiro think he is on fire . Anzu quits working at Burger World , explaining to Yugi that if she kept working she wouldn ' t have any time to spend with him . She wonders who the man who saved her was . Jonouchi calls the two of them over ; a new Beef Bowl restaurant is opening today . As they enter the building they are greeted by Honda and Miho in the restaurant ' s uniforms . Miho explains that she needs new clothes and Honda vows that he ' ll fall as far as needed , as long as he gets to be with Miho .
