Season 2 Episode Guide
Episode 1
Living Room
45 mins
The four couples competing to win the home they will totally renovate are introduced. They are: best buddies Dom and Michael, who each have parental issues in wanting to compete and win; engaged Tyler and Courtney, who see winning the house a jump-start both to professional and personal aspirations; twenty year married Kim and Harry, who see winning the house for their children justification for being away from them for the first time in their lives for this competition; and mother and son Shelley and Alex, the former who sees the house as one less thing for Alex to worry about as he starts his contracting career. The couples size each other up, as well as the four tear down houses. They are given a quick challenge to decide which couple will be working on which house. After they learn that their first renovation will be the living room, for which they are given a seventy-two hour time frame to complete, and decide what they are going to do as the renovation of this specific space, they are thrown for a loop in learning that the house they chose may not be the one in which they will be working. The team whose living room renovation is deemed the best by the judges will win a trip to Tahiti. The teams believe that a combination of good workmanship and good design will win. However, as their freshman project, they will find that time management and how to deal with unexpected problems may ultimately be just as important.
