4. Teambuilding Exercise

Gavin is reluctant to build Richard's idea, but agrees in order to get revenge on Hooli. Knowing his team would never work for Gavin, Richard assembles outside coders to build the platform, but adds Gilfoyle and Jared, who admit they want to be on the team. Jian-Yang tests his SeeFood app, but it only recognizes if something is a hot dog or not. Angry and dissatisfied with the work, he refuses to add more foods to the app. Erlich angrily snaps a picture of his penis, which the app recognizes as a hot dog.

Jian-Yang spends all the initial funding on a Corvette. Erlich convinces Big Head to make his students train the image recognition neural net as an assignment. Immediately understanding Erlich's motive, they meet with Coleman Blair Partners and create their own food-based app instead, beating SeeFood to market. Considering his shares of Jian-Yang's app worthless, Erlich trades them for Jian-Yang's Corvette. However, Jian-Yang manages to use Erlich's penis picture to pivot the project as a filter for "dick pics" and Periscope acquires the app. Dinesh is brought into Periscope where his main duty is scrubbing pictures of penises from the Internet, for which he is mocked by Gilfoyle.
