Mary Bowers, a world-ranked competitive eater, disguised herself and challenged unsuspecting eaters to a series of eating contests. The contestants were shown videos of professional eaters, including Matt Stonie and Joey Chestnut, and then attempted to eat the same foods as quickly as possible. The contestants participated in three challenges: eating a cupcake, eating a hot dog, and eating a bowl of ice cream. Despite being a novice, Jordan managed to beat Mary in the ice cream challenge. Mary praised Jordan's style and the two ended the competition on a friendly note, with Mary expressing admiration for Jordan's skills and Jordan expressing appreciation for the experience of competing with a professional.
