The episode opened with James Corden joking around with the audience before introducing his first guest for the night: actress Amy Adams. Adams, who was there to promote her film "Vice", discussed her experience playing Lynne Cheney, working with Christian Bale, and her love for karaoke. Corden and Adams then participated in a bit where they sang "Defying Gravity" from "Wicked" together.

Next up was actor, writer, and director Tyler Perry, who was promoting his film "A Madea Family Funeral". Perry discussed the process of creating the iconic character Madea and how the movies have evolved over the years.

They discussed topics such as the government shutdown, the recent Louis C.K. controversy, and the college football championship game.

The show also featured a skit where Corden and Adams acted out scenes from her various films in a little over three minutes. They acted out scenes from "Enchanted", "American Hustle", and "Doubt", to name a few. The skit was both entertaining and impressive, as the duo was able to capture the essence of each film in just a few seconds.

The show wrapped up with a game of "Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts", where guests have to either answer personal questions or eat a disgusting food item. Adams and Perry went head-to-head and had to answer questions such as "What is the most difficult role you've ever played?" and "Have you ever forgotten the lines on set?" There were also some interesting food choices, including bull penis and turkey testicles.
