|ShortSummary=The episode opens with Bini's song "Out of My Head", followed by a game segment led by Colet, who served as the game master. She introduced a challenge called "Simple on the LED Wall", in which players had 15 seconds to mimic poses displayed on an LED screen, inspired by the American game show Hole in the Wall. Five players—Jhoanna, Sheena, Maloi, Stacey, and Mikha advanced to the next round. The second game, titled "Aslom", required five players to say a Bisaya phrase while eating sour candies, maintaining their fiercest facial expression within 20 seconds. Sheena, Jhoanna, and Maloi advanced to the final round. The last game was called "Scare Me Not", where each contestant participated in a surprise confessional session. During their confessions, they were subjected to jump scares, and the player who reacted the least was declared the winner. Jhoanna won the final challenge.
