After dinner, the Family face off in one-on-one boasting battles, where preposterous exchanges take place between Rain and Chunhee, Jaesuk and Jongshin, Hyori and Yejin, Jongkook and Daesung, and Sooro and Chunhee, including ridiculously topics such as television-watching ability, fame resulting from associating with Kang Ho Dong, crying to songs when drunk, and frequent flyer miles. During sleep order rankings, the Family men dance while donning an Afro wig and gold chain and Yejin bribes her way to first place among the women with cookies. As the Family heads to bed, Jongkook departs to prepare for his comeback broadcast performance the following day. In the morning, the wake-up mission comprises a needle-threading task, finally resulting in Rain and Chunhee tasked with breakfast duty. Although only able to catch one fish, Rain and Chunhee prepare a tasty dumpling and fish soup with the broth Rain brought. Following breakfast, the Family head to the beach to play a game of queen dodgeball, where teams protect their respective queens of Hyori and Yejin, highlighted by Jaesuk's multiple body shots.

The premiere episode of Family Outing begins with a "red carpet" event inside the SBS building; a night introducing the show and the Family members. The members interrogate each other with personal questions to allow the audience to familiarize itself with the Family. The day of formal filming follows with the Family gathering at a farm village, where everyone sets off for a local river to fish and play their first game. During the water-based running race, Hyori's team loses decisively to Yejin's, leading to the introduction of the "Hyori Effect". Returning home with their fish, Yejin reveals her "savage" fish preparation abilities while the other members look on with wonder. After dinner, the Family form a circle to play the "Saranghae (I Love You) Game" and end the evening with a ranking of Family members to determine the sleeping order. Highlights of the ranking include Yejin's annoyance at the men's slow voting leading to a reversal of results in Hyori's favor. As bedtime preparations continue, the faux "Big Bbeon" members Jongshin as "Kae Sung" and Jaesuk as "C-Dragon" are introduced.

After breakfast, the Family set out to feed the farm's piglets, with some escaping and chasing down of the "kids" to ensue. The Family then move on to the fields to organize stacks of hay, but not before distracting themselves with another race game. Highlights include Sooro the "Game Devil" carrying Hyori's team to victory, Jongshin's "old man" accordion music, and Yejin losing her sense of direction following the "elephant spin".

For this episode, the rankings involve everyone competing to act the most despicably, while yet exhibiting charisma. Highlights include Jongshin garnering repeated face splashings due to his unbecoming behavior and Hyesung attempting to woo both female Family members simultaneously. Ultimately, Jongshin and Hyori prevail for first place victories. At bedtime, Hyori delights the cameras with her flirtatious antics before the Family doze off. The wake-up mission involves each member catching a thrown pillow immediately following a somersault, eventually leaving Hyesung and Yejin with breakfast duty. The pairing proceed to peacefully cook kimbap and egg soup, only to have Hyori and Jaesuk nagging them throughout the process. After brunch, the Family head off to pick persimmons in the field, engaging in a verbal game of puns centered on the Korean word for persimmon, before forming teams to play a game of racing up a hill of hay. Highlights include inept physical performances from Jaesuk and Jongshin leading to their trademark sad accordion music. The episode ends with the homeowners being welcomed home.
