The broadcast on this day was decorated with 'Happy Ye-eun Day', depicting the stories of the members who visited Ji Ye-eun's new house. Before the full-fledged housewarming party, the members decided to buy gifts by adding their own money for Ji Ye-eun, who also celebrated her birthday. However, Ji Ye-eun made people laugh by saying, `I don't accept everything like former Kim Jong-guk.'
Song Ji-hyo prepared a set of scrubbers and pots, but was rejected, and even Squeeze, a bathroom cleaning item purchased by Kim Jong-guk, refused, saying, `Senior, use it.' Kim Jong-guk, who was rejected, rather happily proved that he was a "salty man" who couldn't take care of the squeegee again. Ji Ye-eun, who aims for a minimal life, even refused Yoo Jae-seok's gift, a ramen cooker, but when Ha-ha offered various snacks, she accepted them without rejection and showed a 'Mukjjang' appearance.

Ji Ye-eun served welcome drinks and pasta to the members who visited the house in person. However, he used wooden chopsticks and paper cups to embarrass the members while serving seven portions of pasta on a luxury plate. Afterwards, the members challenged Ji Ye-eun's running man informal quiz, 'Limited Time Quiz', to win a housewarming gift.
Ji Seok-jin talked about Lee Se-dol as Maseok-dol, and he frustrated the members with his bizarre memory that he knew except for his name, but in the end, he acquired a Dyson fan and a robot vacuum cleaner as a gift and delivered it to Ji Ye-eun.
In addition, actors Kim Ha-neul, Nam Woo-hyun, and Lee Joon-young appeared as guests at the end of the show, raising expectations for next week's broadcast.
