"Yeah? And what will it cost me?"

Microphone and Taco first properly met each in "Rain On Your Charade".

Microphone was writing in her diary when she threw it into a bush due to her anger. Then, a voice starting reading her diary aloud. Microphone was bewildered by this so Taco reveals herself to Microphone and offers her help if she could get a split of the million dollars. At first, Microphone refuses but Taco asks her to keep the offer in mind, saying that she could benefit massively if she accepts and then leaves, telling Microphone to think about it.

Episodes suggesting a friendship
At the end of "Mazed and Confused", Taco gives Microphone a thumbs up when she's attending the Spoiled Lemon Concert.

After the challenge in "Kick the Bucket", Taco is impressed by Microphone's use of mental manipulation rather than physical harm in the challenge.

In the beginning of "Hatching the Plan", when Microphone woke up, Taco had been dragging her along the cave whilst she had been knocked out. Taco joked saying that she has been doing that for a while. Microphone joked as well quoting when Knife said that Taco would eventually drop her. Both of them laughed when Taco ironically agreed.

Neutral Interactions
In "Everything's A-OJ", when Taco was spying on Microphone in the bushes, Microphone didn't have any reactions to this, mainly due to the fact that she didn't notice.

Episodes suggesting a conflict
In "Rain On Your Charade", Taco tries to negotiate with Microphone to try and work with her, but Microphone denounces working with Taco at first before Taco retreats telling her that she had so much to gain.

Near the beginning of the challenge in "Mazed and Confused", Microphone calls out for Taco and Taco makes a quip an Mic, annoying her.

Before the challenge in "Kick the Bucket", Taco orders Microphone to use the taser on Balloon, while Mic objects and refuses to hurt other contestants to her benefit. After getting rid of the temporary paralyzer, Taco yells at Mic, telling her that she has no respect for the game.

In "Hatching the Plan", Microphone finally confronts Taco about how she lied multiple times and says that she thought she had gained a friend, but actually gained nothing. After this, when Taco attempts to argue that surely it couldn't have been nothing, Mic decreases her range of hearing so Taco isn't able to communicate with her anymore. During the elimination, when Microphone quits the game, Taco is visibly troubled and even upset.
