Using Dr. Donna's advice, Jenni attempts to restore order in the office by instituting a policy of mutual respect. Meanwhile, Jeff must calm George and Monika Eads who have become nervous over the escalating budget. When Jenni's efforts to deal with the human resources crisis fail, Jeff takes matters in his own hands and plans a mandatory team-building retreat in New Mexico.

The Jeff Lewis Design team arrives at a remote facility in rural New Mexico to deal with and hopefully ease their issues with one another. As they undergo a series of therapy sessions and team building exercises, conflicts rise to an explosive confrontation between staff members.

Jeff "trimmed the fat" from his company and fired those employees who only made his life and job harder. He is now hyper-focused on expanding his Jeff Lewis Design empire, but discovers some growing pains as he delegates more and more to his remaining staff than it seems they can handle. Everything blows up in Jeff's face leading to one of his largest meltdowns of all time.
