Set after the standalone episode structured to take place during a hiatus which focuses on Willis (Jimmy O. Yang) filming various commercials for products he doesn’t really understand, the final two episodes of the series bring the focus back to what’s wrong with the world as Wills asking the same questions his brother did leads to the show painting him as its new bad guy. Meanwhile, having taken Willis’ old job in the restaurant,  Lana (Chloe Bennet) makes a discoveries of her own involving how the citizens of Chinatown are being recycled constantly back into the show (explaining presumed dead characters seen earlier in the season) along with a tie between the lives of Chinatown and the video game at the restaurant from which Jonathan (Chris Pang) has been sending messages to Willis this entire time.

Looking to get into his uncle’s office leads to Willis and Lana (Chloe Bennet) attending family dinner as something more than friends and an ill-conceived night out afterwards with Fatty (Ronny Chieng) whose ill-tempered waiting continues to draw in large audiences.

At first Willis Wu (Jimmy O. Yang) is ecstatic at his new role of Tech Guy.
