Duel Monsters GX Episode 3

## Summary

In Dr. Crowler's class, he quizzes the first year students on game mechanics. Alexis Rhodes successfully names all card types in Duel Monsters, while Syrus Truesdale fails to explain how Field Spell Cards work.

Crowler comments that he wasn't expecting any more from a "drop-out boy" ("Slifer slacker" in the dub). Syrus feels embarrassed about what he did, but Leo defends Syrus by reminding Crowler that He had defeated him stating that duel is more about how well you use the cards. Crowler is infuriated about what Leo did. Later during Lyman Banner's class, Syrus thanks Leo for giving him that support.

Later, Crowler writes a fake love letter and puts in what he believes was Leo's locker. It turns out to be Syrus' locker. Syrus reads the note and believed that Alexis was in love with him. Mack reject the Idea but suggest that They should find out if the love letter in genuine The letter said to meet her behind the girl’s dormitory at midnight.

Meanwhile, Crowler hid in the bushes behind the dormitory. He planned to take a picture of Leo trespassing and breaking school rules, so that he would be expelled. (this is because the girls were bathing).

Alexis and her roommates Mindy and Jasmine are in an outdoor bath, discussing male students, though Alexis does not seem interested in the conversation (in the dub she shows interest in Leo and swimsuits are added).

While outside, Syrus and Mack showed up and Crowler was disappointed to find out that his plan backfired. The girls caught Syrus and Mack and he explained to Alexis about the letter. It was obvious to her that someone set Syrus up, but she decided to use the situation to her advantage.

Meanwhile, Leo received an anonymous e-mail saying to come to the girl’s dorm if he wants to see Syrus again. Leo came with Conner and Alexis challenged him to a Duel. If he lost, Alexis bluffed she'd report them to the chancellor. Leo agreed and was ready to Duel.

Afterward, Alexis kept up her end of the deal and let the them go. Leo ask Alexis to duel him again sometime, especially since it was such a close Duel Leo then proceed telling she doesn't need use this situation to challenge him Before leaving. When Mack asked what would had happen if Leo read the fake love letter Leo answered that he wouldn't go anyway even if the letter was real and doesn't think that Alexis was then type to write a love letter in the first place causing Alexis blushed slightly.

As Alexis watches Leo leaves thinking that She wouldn't even turn them in even if she had won. Mindy and Jasmine begin to suspect that Alexis might begin to have a crush on Leo.
