Meanwhile, Guillermo struggles with his own moral dilemma as he realizes that the victim he selected for the Baron is actually a member of his own family.

Despite these challenges, Nandor remains determined to make the night a success. He takes the Baron to a strip club, where they continue to drink and party, and eventually winds up in a tense standoff with the vampire hunters.

Overall, Baron's Night Out is a hilarious and action-packed episode that showcases the vampires' unique personalities and the challenges they face in their immortal lives.
