As Mickey, Wahoo, and Tuna pack for their trip to the Everglades, Tuna is excited to meet Badger, and Wahoo doesn’t have the heart to tell her the truth about the reality star’s personality. They engage in playful banter—Tuna calls him “Lance,” and he calls her “Lucille.” Wahoo is also impressed by Tuna’s knowledge of taxonomy. Once on the road, Tuna notices Mickey grimacing with the pain of his recurring headaches and she offers him medication that she claims is “a killer on migraines” (94).

The production establishes its base of operations in a souvenir shop, the proprietor of which makes a host of unsubstantiated claims, asserting that they’ll find panthers and bears in the Everglades. Hoping to avoid another incident like the one with Alice, Raven asks Mickey to stay close to Badger during the shooting. Each night, a helicopter will transport him to a luxury hotel in Miami.
