They get a second opinion from Gordon, who prefers Mr. Hooper's burgers, but Luis says that he likes Willy's burgers better. Susan is able to split the difference, as she likes both kinds. She makes a combination hamburger using Willy's bun and relish, and Mr. Hooper's patty and ketchup. She cuts it in two for Mr. Hooper and Willy to try, and the two men find it delicious.
