The host, Jamie, is playing a game of "Hidden in Plain Sight" where one of his employees hides in the building and he has to find them. The employee, Kyle, has left a series of clues for Jamie to follow, including a custom View-Master reel with pictures of Jamie from previous episodes, a series of post-it notes with cryptic messages, and a video of Kyle working out in a hidden location.
As Jamie searches the building, he follows the clues and eventually discovers that Kyle has been hiding in a makeshift gym he created behind a stack of boxes on the upper level of the warehouse. The clues were hidden in plain sight, including in the thumbnails of previous episodes, which Kyle had altered to show his new gym.
In the end, Jamie finds Kyle and wins the game, but Kyle asks if he can keep the gym upstairs and offers Jamie a free membership.
