The episode features a math-based challenge called "Number Chains" where 10 teams compete to solve algebraic equations on five boards. The team that completes all boards the fastest wins. The guest quiz master, Heo Seong Beom, a renowned AI researcher from South Korea, explains the rules and introduces the challenge.
The teams strategize and work together to solve the equations, with some teams dividing tasks according to their strengths and weaknesses. As the challenge progresses, teams start to complete boards, and the competition heats up.
Sandy's team emerges as a strong contender, completing all five boards quickly. Other teams, such as Kadit's and Shakira's teams, also make progress, but some teams struggle with communication and strategy.
The episode ends with the top five teams advancing to the next round, and the remaining teams competing to avoid elimination. The final ranking is determined by the time of inputting the last correct answer and the penalty due to the use of chance cards (hints).
The episode highlights the importance of teamwork, strategy, and communication in achieving success in challenging situations.

6. The game involves solving algebraic equations on five boards.
7. Each board contains boxes with chained algebraic equations and a letter representing a variable value.
8. Teams must determine the variable value of each box correctly and enter the answer into Adapto X.
9. The team can only enter answers into Adapto X once they've found the values of all the variables in each board.
10. If correct, the team will get points.
11. The point value of each board varies based on the number of squares on each board.
12. The 8 teams with the highest scores will continue to the next round, while the 2 teams with the lowest scores will be eliminated.
13. Teams are given 2 chances or benefit cards that can be used after 30 minutes have passed.
14. Chance cards can be used by teams to ask the value of one variable on one of the boards to the Quiz Master.
15. Using a chance card incurs a 5-minute penalty added to the final time record of the match.
16. Each team has 2 clues, but using one clue adds 5 minutes to their record time.
17. Team 1, led by Sandy, completed all five boards and won the game.
18. The top 5 teams to proceed to the next round are Sandy's team, Kadit's team, Shakira's team, Kevin's team, and Falah's team.
19. The final ranking is determined based on the time of inputting the last correct answer plus the penalty due to the use of chance cards (hints).
