He reveals himself to be one of Girlfriend's father's many victims who have been trapped inside the game for a long time.

[./https://fridaynightfunkin.fandom.com/wiki/Pico Pico] is hired once again and sent to the vacation as well in secret with the simple task of confirming Boyfriend's death. Boyfriend and Girlfriend are both secretly equipped with trackers that detect their life signatures as well, though her parents already knew Girlfriend will be fine. Suddenly, they fall off the plane they were in and end up in a desert. Regaining consciousness, the couple find themselves in the company of [./https://fridaynightfunkin.fandom.com/wiki/Tankman Tankman] and [./https://fridaynightfunkin.fandom.com/wiki/Tankmen his army] who holds them both captive.

Since their day was going so slow, Tankman decides to challenge Boyfriend to a sing-off instead of killing them on the spot. After being humiliated in battle twice, Tankman orders his men to open fire on Girlfriend. Just as she is about to unleash her demonic powers however, Pico arrives on the battlefield in the nick of time to shoot down Tankman's army. Rather than sit idly and confirm Boyfriend's corpse like he was supposed to do, Pico helps him and Girlfriend. Boyfriend, now with Girlfriend at his side, and Pico assisting the couple by single-handedly fending off the Tankmen, they're challenged by Tankman one final time. He is ultimately defeated, and the trio survives.

Unfortunately for Pico, he's in deep trouble with Daddy Dearest and Mommy Mearest now for failing them twice.
