Episode 2:
I think it's quite obvious what to do in their situation at the end of the episode: use the camera they have. Movies are still, in essence, a set of photos, so you just make lots of them and then try for a still-frame/stop-motion style of "animation", applying transitions where necessary. It works especially great with their setup of fitting someone's life into a single day. If they will not be doing that - they're plain stupid.
