The broadcast that day drew attention to Ji Ye-eun's diet from the opening. The members noted, "Ji Ye-eun has lost too much weight," expressing disappointment, and when U Jae-suk saw Ji Ye-eun without her double chin, he said, "I've seen a few people lose their character like that," which drew laughter.
This week's race was themed 'Merchant's War: Survive to Earn,' and the members were divided into teams led by U Jae-suk and Kim Jong-kook and had to sell items through auction. U Jae-suk's team headed to Dongdaemun. Jisuk-jin, who stopped by a wig store, showed interest in a partial wig and tried it on, prompting Choi Daniel, who was watching, to exclaim, "You look younger. You look like Park Bo-gum." U Jae-suk also laughed and said, "How do you look so young?" Jisuk-jin displayed actual purchasing intent, bringing great laughter.
Kim Jong-kook's team headed to Seongsu-dong. Song Ji-hyo, who is also active as a CEO, suggested, "I think we should buy that item, wishing to have it for myself," and Kim Jong-kook expressed satisfaction, saying, "Being a CEO makes it easy for her to speak up." At that moment, Song Ji-hyo called Kim Jong-kook "Honey," surprising all the members. She added, "I originally intended to say 'Hello,'" which attracted attention.
Afterward, the members who proceeded to auction against the production team struggled with surprisingly strict criteria. In particular, Kim Jong-kook's team garnered laughter by offering a package of 'a tumbler + a group photo of the four members,' including a group photo no one wanted.
Ultimately, bids lower than the purchase price emerged, and Kim Jong-kook's team won the final victory by spinning the roulette, while U Jae-suk's team faced the penalty of breaking the piggy bank.
