Canon
Carly was a reporter looking for scoops on the Fortune Cup. She failed to find Yusei but after a tip from Misty she found Jack in the hospital. At that moment Tetsu Ushio, under the control of the Dark Signers, arrived to take out Jack. Since Jack's arm was injured he could not duel on his own so Carly helped him. They defeated together. Since it was not safe there Carly sneaks Jack out of the hospital and he hides out in her home.

Carly enjoyed him staying there. She was especially glad when he declined the new free Tetsu Ushio and Mikage's offer to take him somewhere else. She had planned to write a story about him but kept putting it on hold and eventually called it off vowing never to write a story that would harm a duelist. Jack when on a date with her to repay her.

Jack began to reminisce about his past and realized it was wrong for him to have abandoned his friends in Satellite. Carly suggested that it was the old Jack who was defeated by Yusei, and now it was time for the real Jack to rise. Jack took her advice and refused to be led astray anymore.

Carly begins to look into the Arcadia Movement. This caused her to confront the cult's leader Divine. She is killed in a duel with him being thrown out a window only to be resurrected as a Dark Signer. Jack finds her glasses and believes that she was a victim of the Dark Signers.

Carly is brought back to life at the end of the arc along with the rest of the former Dark Signers.
