Based on: Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Duke, under the influence of mescaline, complains of a swarm of giant bats, and inventories their drug stash.

By the time they reach the strip, Duke is in the full throes of his trip and barely makes it through the hotel check-in, hallucinating that the clerk is a moray eel and that his fellow bar patrons are draconian lizards.

Back in the hotel room, Duke leaves Gonzo unattended, and tries his luck at Big Six.
