The next day, Tuesday of course, Joey skipped school again. Of course so did Yugi, but he was in the hospital. Tristan was getting madder and madder the more trouble Joey got into, and Tea got more and more worried.
"Tristan, I'm going to the hospital to bring Yugi his homework today. Want to come with?" asked Tea that morning.
"No. I'm going to find Joey and knock some sense into him. It was probably Hirutani himself who stabbed Yugi, and I'm going to make him pay!" declared Tristan.
"You can't do that, we don't even know if it's him. Yugi doesn't even believe he was stabbed, remember?" said Tea. Tristan shook his head.
"It doesn't matter how Yugi got hurt, the fact that he did is reason enough for me to go after Hirutani. I mean maybe he was shot. After all, we weren't there. And the police didn't find a knife did they?" he argued.
"Well, they didn't find a gun, either!" said Tea.
"Whatever happened, Hirutani did it and I'm going to kick his butt from here to the moon!"
"Fine. But don't go accusing without evidence," said Tea. "that's not right." Tristan only grunted and slouched in his seat.

Meanwhile at the hospital, Yugi was flipping through channels on the TV.
"Yugi, perhaps you should be resting," said Yami, the reason for speaking the fact that he had nothing else to say.
"I am resting, Yami. I just want to watch TV while I do it. Telletubbies…100 Mexicanos…The People's Court…the stock market channel? Why aren't there any cartoons on?" Yugi grumbled. "I wish you didn't have to pay for cable."
"Perhaps it's just the shows that are on when kids your age are usually in school," said Yami.
"Well I'm bored."
"Why don't we play a game, then?" suggested Yami.
"OK! Let's play I Spy. I spy with my little eye something beginning with…D." Yami glanced around.
"Door," he said.
"Yeah! OK, your turn."
"I spy with my little eye something beginning with W." said Yami. Yugi searched the room for a few seconds.
"Wall?" he asked. Yami nodded. "OK, you know what? This is boring."
"It was your idea," said Yami.
"Why don't we play this one game…I forgot what it's called…but like, I'll say the name of a Duel Monsters card and you name one who's name starts with the same letter mine ends with. OK?" said Yugi.
"Very well."
"Cool, I'll start…um, Dark Magician."
"Negate Attack," Yami rebounded.
"K…uh, K…hmm, Khurriboh."
"Horn Imp."
"Pot of Greed!"
"Dragon Zombie!" the game was turning into a huge competition.
"E…" a few seconds went by. "I don't know. You win." said Yugi. Yami rolled his eyes. Yugi was disappointed when Yami had to suddenly disappear, but was happy again to see why. Tea had just entered the room.
"Hey Yugi," she said.
"Tea. What's up?"
"I brought your homework, I thought we'd do it together," she said. Yugi nodded. "Shall we start on botany?"
"Why not?" the two friends opened their science books and started reading.

Over at Rintama, Hirutani was counseling the gang about the fight with the prep school. "It's like this, see: we don't need Joey on our side, we just could use all the money we can trick him out of. So, we kidnap his ho, send a ransom note, and he either dies in the alley or pays us with everything he's got. Sound pretty sweet?" the guys in the gang all agreed. "Alright. Tonight we ransom the ho, and tomorrow we throw a rock through 'Wuss High' with a note that says "Bring it!"

"OK, um, plants make their own food by combining sunlight, water…nnnn…" Tea grunted as she skimmed a
paragraph. "…what makes plants' leaves green?"
"Chlorophyll," answered Yugi.
"What?" asked Tea in disbelief. She dropped her eyes to a sentence on the page that said just that. "Oh, I see."
"Math?"
"I hate math," grunted Tea, under her breath. Then she handed Yugi his textbook, and spread out hers on her lap.
"Alright, if 3a 45p, find the…dang it, I hate algebra!" she growled.
"Where's my calcu-ma-lator?" asked Yugi, twisting his head around, looking for the calculator that was on his lap the whole time. "Oh," but when he shifted his weight, the calculator slid off his blanket and clattered onto the floor.
"Fudge!" he snapped. Reaching down to get it, he yelped.
"Yugi, don't exert yourself! I'll get it," Tea offered. When she handed the calculator back to Yugi, a nurse came in and informed her that visiting hours were over. Tea reluctantly exited the room and left Yugi, grunting in pain.
"Mutou Yugi? Are you alright?" the nurse asked.
"I hurt my stomach!" said Yugi. "I was reaching down to pick up my calculator and now my stomach hurts."
"Hmm, I think you might have internal bleeding. We'll have to get you into surgery." before Yugi could respond, the nurse was feeding him anesthetic, and he passed out.
