The episode begins with a game called "Let's Make a Date," where one of the performers plays a contestant on a dating show, while the others portray eccentric potential dates.

However, the director, played by one of the performers, constantly interrupts and demands changes to the scene, resulting in a chaotic and hilarious adaptation. From dramatic scenes turned into musicals to unexpected twists and turns, the improvisers navigate the director's whims with humor and creativity, creating memorable moments along the way.
Following "Hollywood Director" is a fan-favorite game called "Greatest Hits," where the performers act as enthusiastic hosts of a music infomercial.

Through improvised songs and clever banter, the performers create catchy jingles and humorous lyrics on-the-spot, showcasing their musical and improvisational talents.

In "Newsflash," the performers take on the roles of news anchors reporting on strange and unusual events happening on a green screen. One of the improvisers, acting as the anchor, must rely on the other performers, acting as field reporters, to mime and signal the key details of the news story using props and physical comedy, all while the anchor tries to guess what's happening. The unpredictable and hilarious visuals created by the performers make this game a riotous experience for both the cast and the audience.
Another popular game featured in this episode is "Party Quirks," where one of the performers hosts a party while the others are assigned unique quirks by the audience.
