Sixteen talented comedians compete for a shot at becoming the Last Comic Standing in Season 7, Episode 3 titled "Week 3." The episode kicks off with the remaining contestants performing in front of a live audience and a panel of judges, including comedian and actor Keenen Ivory Wayans, radio and television personality Roseanne Barr, and stand-up comedian and writer Norm Macdonald.

The comics had to take their material to the next level as they were required to incorporate props into their act. The challenge pushed each comic to showcase their versatility and creativity, elevating their humor beyond words and putting their physicality to the test. Though the added pressure of using props may have added more stress, it was evident on stage that each contestant had risen to the challenge.

The contestants know that the stakes are high, and they all want to be named the last comic standing. They were given feedback from the judges, and in some cases, received harsh criticism as Roseanne Barr's feedback was described as "brutal." The panel of judges made their decisions, separating the comedians into two groups: those who will advance to the next round, and those who will be eliminated.
