Later, while trying to work, Mike dances to a song he used to strip to. Reinvigorated, he decides to join them on their trip. Driving in a fro-yo van owned by Tito and Tobias, they make their first stop at Mad Mary's. To prove to Richie he is willing to commit to the trip, Mike participates in an amateur drag queen contest, and the others join him shortly. They then go to a beach where Mike lets Ken hit him to resolve his issues with him. He also meets photographer Zoe who tells him that she is off to New York. They flirt but agree to not have sex.
