I am attempting to complete the Tunnel Cake Challenge. I have accessed target01 and recovered the key and can access target02. When I setup my nested tunnels, nothing happens.

From the kali box, I opened a browser and attempted to browse to https://127.0.0.1:8888 as stated in the memo but get a connection refused and target02 logs the error I stated above so I know the traffic is getting there.
These are the commands I used:

This is my kali box:
Thank you for any help!
