The episode begins with a spaceship freighter making its way to a satellite, heavy metal music blaring from it. The pilot, a husky woman named V.T. and her pet cat Zeros are coming off a shift. They meet up with another trucker, Auto, chit chat for a bit and start to part ways before Auto stops her and pulls out some money. This is a apparently an ongoing game in which people try to guess V.T.'s full name in which she has earned a stack of money from it. The rules of the game are simple, they only get one guess and no clues. Auto apparently been trying for awhile and this bout ends no differently. V.T wishes him luck before heading off. |

We then go to an eatery called Mac's Diner where an old man is outside talking with a couple of young punks, claiming to have been the mentor to a legendary bounty hunter called Terpsichore though the punks don't believe him. V.T. heads into the diner finding it filled with rough looking individuals. Talking to the bartender reveals they're all bounty hunters waiting for a bounty to show up much to V.T's disgust. In the bathroom of said diner is Spike, nursing a hangover and complaining to Jet about the "exclusive information" on the bountyhead named Dexter who has a tattoo shaped like a dragon. When he asks about Faye, its revealed she's at a kiddy themed restaurant called Woody's. A muscled individual walks in and Faye spots what looks like a dragon on his chest, thinking it's Dexter. She holds him at gunpoint and calls him by name which a rather wimpy bespectacled man in the next table suddenly panics upon hearing. He starts to slip away but Faye calls out to him to call the I.S.S.P. However as he's leaving, she spots the dragon tattoo on his shoulder and realizes she has the wrong guy. Uncovering the tattoo on the person she thought was Dexter reveals it was actually an eel. |

Back at Mac's, some Hispanic bounty hunters are hassling the waitress and try to have their way with her. V.T. attacks them in response leading to a fight. Spike shows no interest at first trying to put an egg in his glass. But one of the hunters bump into him and causes the egg to drop on his crotch. Angered, he joins in on the fight. During this, Faye chases the real Dexter through the parking lot in her ship. She nearly corners him as he's getting into an elevator but he throws a vial that explodes and damages her ship, allowing him to get away. She phones Jet about what happened much to his dismay. Spike and V.T make quick work of the thugs before Spike throws them out. He heads back inside where V.T. express her displeasure about bounty hunters before offering Spike a drink as thanks. Spike gets another egg and makes himself a [[wikipedia:Prairie oyster |

Spike gets another egg and makes himself a [[wikipedia:Prairie oyster (cocktail)|Prairie Oyster]] to help his hangover. V.T. notes he's the second person to drink the cocktail, her husband being the first. Antonio, Carlos, and Jobim (i.e. the old men) arrive and challenge to guess V.T.'s name. They guess wrong (not even guessing in the right alphabetical group) and add more money to the pile. |

Spike, interested, goes to try his luck, but Jet calls him to inform what happened, giving Spike away as a bounty hunter. V.T. rebuffs him calling him a liar (though really she never asked) and refuses to pay for his drink. He shrugs it off and pays his tab but upon heading for his ship, finds it busted and desecrated which the waitress, Murial, forgot to remind him that it was the same thugs from before who did it. Spike is forced to hitchhike which V.T. comes across as she's leaving the diner. While she wants nothing to do with him, Zeros takes a liking Spike and perches atop his head. V.T caves and offers him a ride, picking up Faye in the process. Faye tries to tell Spike of Dexter's description and ship but V.T.'s rock music drowns her out. |
