Carole Baskin may not have the “Eye of the Tiger” after all.

On Monday, the “Tiger King” star, 59, received the lowest scores during the Season 29 premiere of “Dancing with the Stars,” receiving a total of 11 points out of a possible 30 after her Paso dance to Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger” with partner Pasha Pashkov.

Baskin’s night also took an unexpected turn outside the ballroom, as the daughters of her missing ex-husband, Don Lewis, appeared in a commercial that aired during the show.

“We need to know what happened to our father,” Lewis’ eldest daughter, Donna, said in the ad.

John M. Phillips, the family’s attorney, also appeared on-screen with the siblings, along with Lewis’ former assistant, Anne McQueen.

“Don Lewis mysterious disappeared in 1997, his family deserves answers. They deserve justice. Do you know who did this or if Carole Baskin was involved?” Phillips said in the clip.

The Lewis family also mentioned a $100,000 reward had been funded, and that a tipline is also available.

“Tiger King” star Joe Exotic has accused Baskin of harming Lewis, which she has denied multiple times.

Baskin wasn’t the only “Dancing with the Stars” personality who endured a rough opening night, fans also skewered new host Tyra Banks on Twitter for her debut.

“Dancing with the Stars” airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC.
