It's 2017. Painquin is the only penguin in South Antarctica with at least a bit of self dignity, getting aggravated by everyone else. One day, Painquin gets notice how one of his idols, a gray fox named Mike, is holding a fan meetup in Florida. Painquin wants to attend as this is his chance to flee, but doesn't have a passport, so he decides instead to sneak on a boat, and travel illegally. He makes it to Florida but ends up being caught. Now, it's Painquin's destiny to evade the IRS, this is how his long global runaway begins.
