Chapel

Super Dave talks to Leo Thompson, a "Kiss Doctor" who improves people's lives simply by kissing them. He tries it on audience members and it seems to work, but when he tries it on Super Dave, the Super one is less than pleased! Super Dave holds the Million Dollar Contest where a "Mystery Superstar" comes out and plays a song, and viewers have to phone in and guess the title and the artist. At the Super Dave Chapel, Super attempts to do a concentration exercise where Super will tell a joke and Fuji will keep trying to distract him.
