Summary: "It's like some kind of good karma lightning rod!"
"Here's a stupid question. Why are we hiding in the bushes outside of Yugi's house?"
"Because, moron, I don't want him to see us."
"Why? You have an idea?"
"Of course I do!"
"Is it stealing the god cards again? We've tried that already."
"No! We're targeting something else. I've realized that I know the source of Yugi's power."
"Uh, you mean that dinky necklace that he-?"
"It's his hair."
"…What?"
"It's his hair. It's what attracts all the good luck, like it's some sort of lightning rod for good karma. That's how he keeps winning!"
"Should I ask?"
"Look, it stands entirely upright and it's multicolored. It practically has its own gravitational orbit-there might as well be moons flying around it."
"…So…what, we shave his head and he'll suddenly start losing all his duels?"
"Exactly! We wait until he goes to bed, then go in through that skylight in his bedroom and shave all his hair off!"
"…Uh…you're not serious about this, are you?"
There was never a chance to answer this dubious question, for at that moment a new voice drawled from behind them, "And what are you two nimrods doing skulking around in the bushes?"
Rex and Weevil started violently with startled yells and then, after noticing who was standing behind them, paled and scrambled out of the bushes. They both scurried away, disappearing down the street and out of sight without backward glances.
Joey stepped out of the bushes and returned to the sidewalk, watching them go with a bewildered frown. "Idiots, the both of them," he muttered, running a hand through his hair. He had no idea what they had been whispering about, but it was probably for the best that he had put an end to their little discussion.
