Part of the opening is Laurie and Doug giving decorating recommendation to a https://spankingporn.vip/ while-shifted Pilgrims. Fortunately, the Pilgrims are solely actors, as a result of real Pilgrims would most likely have the decorating duo within the pillory with their ears nailed to the wooden. Laurie's violating costume codes (circa 1620) and Doug is, let's be honest right here, Doug. If they didn't discover one thing to hate after one or two episodes they wouldn't be trying hard sufficient. This is adopted by a shot of Amy Wynn and one other Pilgrim sawing a log with a two-particular person saw whereas Ty tries to look busy. Ty suggests a cordless saw. Well, that is type of what it's already. The trenches: The room Doug can be abusing is a kitchen/dining-room/residing-room combo. Which is, to my eyes, gaudy and cramped. And these things is new? Cripes. Homeowners: Tina and James. Laurie's sufferer room is a long but not terrible-trying residing room. Its main drawback is that it seems to be, nicely, actually really lived-in. But I'm being polite. I do not like it much, both. Homeowners: John and Barbie. (A blonde named Barbie. They're all blondes, aren't they?) They also have dogs, so Barbie would not want anything "too fancy", as a result of she has animals. You got Laurie in there, you know that? I'd drive this car into a wall if it weren't for the other individuals on the highway! Ah, Laurie and Doug go purchasing. Laurie, being the fantastic individual she is, is backseat driving, saying she is aware of the best way to get to Beacon Hill. She follows this up by proclaiming to the primary set of ears she sees (an antiques seller) that Doug's driving shouldn't be up to par. She also will get the vapours (not less than, that's what it looked like) when telling the supplier that she's chargeable for half a hundred grand in cash. Antique vendor instantly tries to sell her everything in arm's attain. He is aware of his clients, that is for certain. You've watched this show earlier than... proper? Ah, one of many homeowners has already talked about that she needs to maintain her beloved flooring. And already I hear both carpenters talking about their Designing Overlords replacing the flooring. It's already shaping as much as be a daily day on the races. Decadent: Within the technique of ethical or bodily decay. Laurie buys a $2,800 chair and squeals that she's "sooooooooo decadent!" She also mentions that she has carte blanche, "No one to carry me accountable!" for what she does. (Calls up a screencap of the homeowners.) Yep, it's simply a regular day on the races, all right. Ads with out the commercials: Only Ty, Amy Wynn, and a camera crew may walk into a house Depot and get assist instantly. Ty, ever the gentleman, asks to be helped discover the bathroom. Ty-dor the Burninator: Ty (who, driving a toy car in another scene, spun out) supposedly blocked the hearth lane of the home Depot he went to. Math time: if the wood he is taking a look at (and wincing about the value) is $529 per sq. foot, and there's about a hundred sq. toes in the store, how much will the lawsuit for simply that lumber be if the place burns down? Ad executives. They execute advertisements. During the industrial, we see Sony Vega ad primary. Keep in mind that. The Perkinator: Paige explains the foundations, and looks to be about to burst before she mentions the $100,000. When she does mention it, there's much excitement and Barbie accuses Paige of being "filled with it". If you happen to mean stuffed with perkiness, you're right. Meanwhile, Tina's vocabulary has devolved into "Stop it! Stop it!" I died in your arms tonight: Laurie, ever the master of the subtle, tells the newly-arrived homeowners that she is "Dying, I am dying for you!" Evidently Tina does not want Laurie dead - in opposition to the wishes of a few viewers members, one would suppose - because she continues her litany of "Stop it!" in between other, more significant, phrases. Laurie also claims she's shaking, and she holds out her hand and shakes it to prove it. (Holds out hand and shakes it.) Damn, so am I. Hard to kind with one hand, though. Gender mirrors: Both male homeowners appeared reluctant to join their wives in the big Excited Designer Hug. Don't they make sauce? Product placement alert: Doug's putting in Pergo floors. Crooooooooooooooowbar! Tina and James try to pry their neighbor's Tv out of an armoire, however it is wedged in tight. Much endeavoring lastly frees it of its moorings. My evil facet needed to see them use a crowbar, but they didn't, I assume because it is, you realize, a bigass expensive Tv. Damn, the destruction quotient will probably be surprisingly low this episode. Meanwhile, Doug unloaded some new cabinets. Woo! They'll destroy the outdated cabinets! Nobody can use old cabinets! Woo! Grrr! Hulk offended! Hulk run fingers although hair and sigh and say Hulk is confused! Laurie will, she claims, have a significant hissy fit if the carpet is glued. It is not, so we're saved a tune and dance, and as an alternative subjected to a track and dance about placing down maple floors. She's shaking her arms once more too, but with both palms. (Tries it.) TYPUNG WITGH Nose HARDF.L. Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrybar! Mark, Nathan, and John. No, they're not apostles, they're Doug's workforce of pleasant Home Depot Product Placement At-Home Services helpers. Wow, between the extendible pointer stick he's been using to level at issues, the identify "Operation Sophistication", and his military of builders, he's going to be carrying a normal's outfit for the designer chat at the top of the episode. They've additionally got a pry bar! MANLY DESTRUCTION TIME! Airhead vs. Gasbox: Laurie (to her huge and abyssal disappointment) cannot change the gasbox fireplace, as it would take too long. Given the shoddy-work horror stories you hear from some former Trading Spaces victims homeowners, I'm wondering at replacing it anyway. I can see the headlines now: "Plymouth obliterated in fireball. Homeland Security hunting Al-Qaeda agent codenamed 'Laurie Smith'." Drawer Wars: Okay, first the 'Amy Wynn and Ty fight for the router bit software drawer' gags had been funny, but they rapidly acquired severely creepy. I do not even want to know what the hell's occurring with those boxer-brief-like abominations Ty whipped out - Is that a thing to make it look like your ass is hanging out? - but I'd wish to have words with someone over it. Painful words. Though I wonder at Amy Wynn's qualifier that this is the primary time she and Ty have crossed paths "as carpenters". I'm secretly hoping it means that the next Trading Spaces spinoff will be Trading Spaces: Highlander. You know, Amy Wynn's walking down a dark alley, then there's that weird sound as Ty steps out of the shadows, they've a flashback to this scene, then they pull out swords and try to hack one another's heads off. (If it ever happens, my prayers are with Amy Wynn. Oh, wait, I'm agnostic. Okay, my vitriolic phrases of hatred are with Ty, then.) Heeeeeeere we're, born to be kings.... Well, I assume this Amy Wynn vs. Ty arm wrestling is as close as I'll get to an epic battle at the end of which there will be just one. Paige breaking it up is hardly epic, as well. Spank me, I've been a foul unhealthy boy.... Paige took to slapping guys on the ass this episode. First was Ty (though she missed and obtained him nearer to the kidney) when he made a remaining play for Amy Wynn's tool drawer. It must have been spontaneous, else I'm positive Ty's scriptwriter (he will need to have one, no mannequin-turned-carpenter could suppose up this a lot dialogue) would have put in some cheap-shot comment about enjoying the spanking. Her second victim was a homeowner, John (who's working with Doug), however she seemed to imply it as encouragement as he walks off digital camera to do some work. He seemed to take it as encouragement, as I heard an off-digicam "Woo-hoo!" just some seconds after the slap. I presume the delay was John quickly checking to confirm that Paige, not Doug, had slapped him. I'm so dissatisfied I wish to bust up one thing! They didn't bust up the cabinets. Paige is as disillusioned as I'm. Seems that John, not content material with getting his house completed as he works here, is taking the cabinets for his garage. Aww, boo. Recyclers be DAMNED! On tonight's Trading Spaces, Ty helps Laurie get in contact together with her interior pimp: At least, that's what it seems to be like as he provides her his pimp-flavah massive "$$$" ring and matching dollar-sign neck weight throughout their dialogue of the brand new mantle for the fireplace. "Yeah, simply cover your marriage ceremony ring with that." Evidently he is not attempting to make her look like a single madam as a lot as externalizing her desire to spend and spend and spend. Well, he's on the right track then. I just didn't realize that Laurie's inside wishes appeared so very similar to a homey wit' bling-bling. There's bought to be therapy for that. Evidently, the bling-bribe was sufficient to blank Laurie's mind of excellent ideas: Ty will get to design the leisure center. It cantilevers. Sounds attention-grabbing. Though, if a brand new viewer tuned in whereas he was describing it in detail and the way it will tie into the room, they'd be questioning why the designer's carrying a tool belt and who the lady in the gaudy jewellery is. Oh captain my captain: Doug's acquired a warfare room set up. I tell ya, he'll be Four-Star General Doug before this is over. Oh my God, he's received a wall-sized chart. And Paige is calling it sensible. For Hastur's sake, don't encourage him! He's additionally summoned Mark, an electrician, from the misty deep. His army is increasing with every passing minute; before lengthy no mortal will have the ability to stop his reign. The electrician is going to install lights (recessed fixtures) around the fireplace. Wait a minute, that is Mark the electrician, John the homeowner, and Mark, Nathan, and John the unrelated three-man Home Depot collective. Man, this is going to get complicated. No, it's not yellow. It's a darkish gentle off-off-yellow. Laurie first seems to be admitting to the fact that her paint palette is, effectively, limited. "You know, I try to idiot everyone, and it's like... naaaah." Yellow. It is going to be yellow. "I do not see this coloration as boring. It's a stupendous wealthy colour and I'm utilizing the mistaken tool to try get the can top off with...." No, you are using the correct tool improper. I can see the lid transferring virtually an inch off the can on the far facet. Because the paint stirrer she's utilizing is simply going to get covered in paint anyway, she should just stick it within the can on the boundary between the open part of the lid and the caught half, and twist. As she reveals the paint - which is yellow - she fires the first salvo in her common battle over the precise shade. "I realize it looks more yellow there" - That's as a result of it is yellow! - "nevertheless it dries a really form of earthen...." An earthen yellow possibly? James appears to have seen the show before, as he mumbles something that seems like "It dries...." like he'll say "It dries yellow." but trails off. Laurie, undaunted by my muttered insults and James's nebulous feedback, continues. "It's called 'Chestertown Buff'." Feels like a porn star. Our Yellow Du Jour has 37 leads to Google, it is so in style. Laurie paints some on the blue wall, so we will all see the glory of not-yellow that she's seeing. On the wall, it looks yellow. So yellow, in actual fact, that even she's pressured to admit it. "And on this blue, it's wanting actually yellow." No, my dear, it isn't the blue that's making it yellow, it's the yellow that's making it yellow. Tina tries to be consoling and compromising. I don't think she's seen a lot of this present earlier than, then. She says "I feel Barbie wished yellow. I imply, we can say yellow, okay? We can say buff, however it's yellow." But Laurie's not done yet, no sir. After closing her eyes (to keep away from the damning yellow proof, I presume) and tensing up like she's just stepped into one thing disgusting, she says "No, however it's not yellow! Eeeee!* Let me go get the swatch; this is gonna drive me loopy, it is not y'all." (*To translate that "Eeee!" into written English: That's "Eeee!" as in "Eeee! This is unpleasant!" not "Eeee! A MOUSE!" or "Eeee! We're completed!" A foul, however not scary, eeee.) Tina, getting sick of Laurie's avoidance of the painting (and the writing) on the wall, points on the yellow and says "Laurie, yellow." as if she was introducing them to one another. I'm thinking they're going to want so as to add a tenth circle to Hell simply to accommodate the bad Trading Spaces designers. Another one! Doug has hired an "artisan" named Ron. Doug explains how he hires art teams to do creative work for all his high end purchasers. I'm certain that will put Barbie at ease, once she goes residence and learns that Laurie hasn't hired anyone to date and is burning time arguing about yellow. Speaking of which.... And one other one of these too.... For every employed hand Doug summons, Laurie has an insistence that it's not frickin' yellow. (Not that she'd ever use such phrases herself, no....) Paige has appeared to echo Laurie's sentiment that it that it wants two coats. However, Paige says they want it simply to ensure it's really, surprise surprise, yellow. I'm wondering on the positive precision with which Laurie reaches the tip of the sentence "It's Chestertown Buff, it's not..." simply as Paige chimes in with "And it appears to be like..." so Paige and the homeowners' shout of "Yellow!" concurrently drowns out Laurie and ends her sentence. Laurie, in response, throws a miniature foot-stamping tantrum. "No it is not, it is BUFF!" She follows this with a giggle, which jogs my memory of a Usenet troll who follows a flame with a smiley face, so you'll be able to never fairly tell if he is insulting or just tactless. I do hope her one-year-previous son Gibson is watching, he'll study some great tips for being a brat just by watching Mommy! Then we'll see a toddler robust enough to hoist his mom with her own petard. Ahhh! Prison of love flashback! No, it isn't quite brown-grey sufficient, however Ron explains they're going to be putting a blue-gray plasterish/paintish product on the partitions, which will then be speckled with the identical stuff to make a textured wall. Doug does the primary coat (utilizing a roller), then Barbie does the speckling (using a brush). The speckling appears to be like good. Paige fault: Laurie appears to have conveniently forgotten that $one thousand of her budget (she thankfully has $1500 left, I used to be so nervous) goes to Paige, to take a homeowner purchasing for the "Paige Gift", an merchandise of the homeowner's selection that the designer may have to use within the room. My suggestion to Tina and James: $A thousand of vivid inexperienced paint, or one of the opposite colours Laurie can not use as a predominant level of her designs. Oh, and a can of stock-normal yellow, just for comparability purposes. Laurie, feeling the cash slipping out of her fingers, bites her finger in thought about learn how to spend her final $500 earlier than Paige grabs it. Apparently, Paige already has some concepts about where to take the homeowners shopping. She says it's to Laurie's liking. Laurie ain't shopping for it. Where's the red-scorching eye poker? Or the cyanide? The going-to-business bumper was a shot of Ty smothering Amy Wynn with the creepy boxer shorts. In the immortal words of A.K. Swift: "Watch me vomit!" Speaking of vomiting.... Sony Vega advert quantity two. Do not forget that. Oh, and does not the ditty within the background of the "E-Bay bidding" Earthlink advert sound just like the Moon Patrol theme? The Howling: Tina and James speak about how fortunate their neighbors are to be scoring all-new furniture. (And your outdated cabinets, sister.) Tina, nonetheless, mentions that they've a big ol' "Marmaduke" dog (That is the form of animals they've?) that was allowed on the outdated furniture. Oh, I'm sure that $2,800 chair goes to have excessive resale value when, instead of one thing like Laurie's dainty little hips, it's going to have an enormous mass of slobbering dogflesh parked on it. And do not forget whatever fabric Laurie's bought in mind for this room.... James wants to sink their $1000 gift into a good gate. Meanwhile, Paige springs her Paige Gift on John and Barbie. I discover she doesn't stress the "Has to use it within the room." thing. Or indeed, even have Doug round. Ty vs. Ty: A shot of Amy Wynn. Something sails in from off-digital camera and hits her, eliciting an "Ow! That one hurt!". I was sure it was Ty, however instead it's Doug proving he could be a bastard, too. Doug is getting Amy Wynn to make a desk. The desk of her desires. Dougie boy, the table of her desires is prefab. Though she does caress that wooden actually lovingly. Hordes of males watching need to be that wooden. The desk will probably be six by three in mahogany and maple. Amy Wynn promises to have the constructing of it executed tonight, so it can be completed up tomorrow - evidently the crew would not have the planer needed to sort out the job. Doug's army of teamsters vs. Laurie's seamster: Finally, Laurie's first signal of hired help, Daniel, appears. Or, more accurately, Laurie drags Tina into the dank basement-cum-sweatshop where she's trapped the poor man. He's a "professional 'stitcher', is what the proper lingo is for a man". So, what's it for a woman? A stitchress? A stitchrix? A stitchrice? Or might it presumably be a 'stitcher' as well? It all sounded like she was stressing that he was a man. He's a man, we may tell, he seems to be like one, he can sew, huge deal, let's move on. Tina has been taken into the dungeons so she will iron. Appliances are better than entertainment: Doug speaks to the homeowners about their Paige gift. They're leaning extra in the direction of home leisure, surround sound, and so on. Doug is steering them in the direction of kitchen appliances. Did the man not price range for them, or what...? Dougby and Pokey: Doug is still tapping and poking at things along with his little pointer, from Amy Wynn's wood to the cabinets. He's also demanding to be saluted by his Home Depot fees, now. Considered one of the home Depot folks, who I'm calling MarkNathanorJohn, mentions (at Doug's repeated proddings for a sensible ETA on getting the cabinets accomplished) that it'll be a few hours "so long as we don't have any more interruptions". Doug asks MarkNathanorJohn if he's implying that Doug is an interruption. MarkNathanorJohn denies it, but homeowner John turns quisling and says that MarkNathanorJohn is indeed implying that. Looks like John's jockeying for the position of Trusted Lieutenant. So Laurie carries a headshot of Doug along with her wherever she goes? Well, at the least it isn't a headshot of Frank.... Laurie is hiding her face behind a monochrome headshot of Doug (very attractive picture, I must admit, in that noncommittal guy approach of admitting another guy appears to be like hunky). She's doing this as part of a complex and totally nonscripted subterfuge focusing on stealing Doug's electrician away to do her electrics work. The gag, whereas drained, is not as unhealthy because it sounds because that is all shot by way of the Paige Cam. Laurie, who normally seems to be at the very least sort of cute, tends to seem like a fish on the Paige Cam. For most of this Paige Cam moment, we can't see her face. Consider all the unborn nuts that died for this mantle! Ty has busted out a new walnut wood mantle for Laurie (from a photo of an identical mantle). Laurie says that, despite the haste, it is probably the most stunning thing she's ever seen. Well, use good wood instead of MDF, that occurs. Also, working with the Banyan logo looming over him in all probability reminds him of his evil company masters. You do not displease the evil corporate masters, for they are delicate and fast to downsize. I, for one, welcome my evil company masters! It's the rattling general they appointed I've issues with: Amy Wynn speaks to the Paige Cam for a second on how, regardless of only working on one home, it feels like four because of all that's occurring. She additionally fondles the wood once more. Mahogany. I'd fondle it too. Doug appears to have strange ideas. Doug needs to stain the mahogany black. I do know nothing about wooden, but Amy Wynn (getting careworn over the entire affair) appears like she's on the right track when she explains the following: Doug needs the wood darkish, however does not seem to be thinking that finishing it's going to darken it to begin with. Staining it in addition is simply going to make it appear to be they painted it black. The wooden grain shall be misplaced within the blackness. Doug's ears don't appear to be burning crimson throughout this: He's together with his electrician as the fellow installs the last of the halogen ceiling lights. Doug plays with the dimmer a bit. Maybe he can sense the approach of immortals: Ty, sensing James's strategy, turns and greets him without any obvious cues that James should be there. For his next trick, he gets James to saw a piece of wooden. Ty then goes on to indicate Laurie his sketchbook web page devoted to the cocktail table he's doing. I'm glad that the digicam angle permits us to see contained in the sketchbook and confirm it's a picture of a table: Laurie gasps with such depth at the sketch that, if we could not see it, we would marvel what else Ty's been sketching. Appliances are higher than leisure redux: So because of this Doug would not need his people spending their $1,000 Paige Gift cash on entertainment. There is a Sony Vega forty two inch plasma Tv sitting in a trailer exterior. Surround sound, pc that is integrated with the whole mess if Doug is to be believed, the whole shebang. How good's the safety on these shoots, and any idea in the event that they're doing one other $100,000 episode? John's thought on the containers of costly technology? "Good factor this is going to James, 'cause I would not be able to determine it out." (Blink. Blink.) Come ON! You're a man! Tv-associated toys and the acquiring thereof are a degree of honor for most men! You need to be in your knees praying for one among these things! You sissy! Of course, I wouldn't need one both, I'd slightly a bigass monitor for my 3.06 GHz Pentium box, but I admit my sissiness. And my geekiness. This promo of kinds was, all in all, a convenient strategy to do an in-present Sony Vega plug to match those we have seen twice thus far within the ad blocks. In unrelated news, apparently John "won the coin toss" (which was additionally off-digicam... hmm) and goes out with Paige to hunt down the elusive Paige Gift. Barbie is dissatisfied that she has to remain house whereas her husband will get to go out with Paige. Good factor she missed the ass-slapping and the "Woo-hoo!" a while again, else she'd be extra than just disappointed. I also notice that John is just not so apprehensive about his spouse staying home with Doug and all these burly Home Depot development staff. Oh ye of a lot faith. Add an ad rant: I do not like screaming babies in ads. But this Stainmaster Carpet one actually will get me: Daddy places his incessantly screaming baby on the carpeted flooring whereas he grabs a stuffed animal. Baby falls asleep immediately. As they plug the consolation of the carpet, a disclaimer fades in at the bottom of the display screen: "It's endorsed infants not sleep on their stomachs." As someone watching with me mentioned: "It is strongly recommended babies not sleep on their stomachs, but this one is not ours so we don't give a rattling." Zoooom! The present roars again with a shot of Ty driving a souped-up golf cart, shouting to feminine pedestrians*, and passing a van reading "The (Something) of Mark Connolly". (*The sound has been muted for the musical again-from-business sting, so I do not know what he says.) Kid in a sweet store time: Laurie's so completely satisfied about something that she has both James and a camera crew in tow as she approaches it. It's a truck. Within the truck is furnishings. And on the furnishings is... fabric! Laurie expresses her love for the fabric, and begins caressing the first piece seen by the shipping plastic. She continues by giving a plug to the furnishings maker and explaining how she selected the fabric for the furnishings. (After all she would not accept stock upholstering!) She lovingly particulars, with acceptable closeups, how the yellow in a single piece ties in to the yellow of one other piece. Question: Why are these two items of furnishings coated in pale yellow and yellow/acid green stripes, when the walls are, by Laurie's insistence, not yellow in any respect? Why are the chairs not Chestertown Buff? Or camel? Or any of one of Laurie's odd paint names? Why? Because she loses herself in the description of the fabric and does not catch herself using the forbidden phrase.... YELLOW! The prices she quotes, at James' request? $4900 for the sofa, $4200 for the love seat, $3900ish for a chair, and somewhere between $1600 and $2600 (Laurie's misplaced depend) every for 2 different chairs. Custom fabrics have their price. Doug abuses the peons and appeases his masters: During Laurie's furniture lovefest, we reduce away for the following bits: 1) Amy Wynn reveals her progress on the desk to Doug. They argue in regards to the completion time, ending with Amy Wynn's "Fifteen (minutes) AND You're not STAINING IT!" 2) Doug and his pointing stick meet with MarkNathanorJohn. MarkNathanorJohn explains how they're putting in the new cabinets and the way he just, as a result of he's a nice man, knocked collectively a piece of conduit so a flooring vent that was useless below the previous ground cupboards will now redirect out into the kitchen. Doug says how much he loves MarkNathanorJohn's work. The gods of Home Depot smile and nod and see it is nice. They promise to give Doug another slave to push around. 3) Amy Wynn shows Barbie easy methods to do mitered edges with a chop noticed. Get shifting or I'll plant one other one in your ass! Paige and her slapping pal John are off to blow $1000. They usually're off in a stretch limo. Paige notices that John seems nonchalant about the limo and the $a thousand cash Paige is brandishing. After all he is, he's obtained Paige within the backseat with him and he is subsequently mechanically kicked into "suave" mode. I imply, Paige in the backseat of a limo with numerous cameras, what more may a guy need? For the rest of this purchasing trip, I'm calling John "Spanky". Ty reveals more of his sketchings to women: Tina's studying concerning the desk that makes Laurie gasp. Tina, in contrast, is gasp-free. Meanwhile, Barbie's not an apt pupil at Amy Wynn's chop noticed. The blade stops halfway by means of a chunk of wood and the machine starts screaming like a banshee with its leg in a bear lure. Amy Wynn has Barbie stop and explains what happens when you put an excessive amount of force on the handle. Barbie, supposedly wiser for the lesson, then begins up again and the screeching begins again. Reacting to the "too much pressure" screeching, she places both arms on the handle and begins using twice as a lot force as before. Now commences Amy Wynn shouting "TURNITOFFTURNITOFFTURNITOFF!" over the blade's unholy rasp. The blade off, she calmly (I do not know how) says "You've bought my saw a bit of indignant." Well, the noticed is likely to be indignant, however I do not suppose it is the saw that's most likely seeing visions of twisting this Barbie doll's head until it comes off. Ty packs his wood and Tina right into a automobile to go on a quest for heavier hardware services. Guy doing gal issues: Shh, it's a Best Buy. Shhhh! Paige and Spanky arrive at a Best Buy, a fact that is simply obvious for those who see the reflected brand and the occasional in-retailer sign. I'm guessing they did not pay enough advert dollars. Now, we see Spanky's fantasies about going out with Paige dashed hopelessly in opposition to the rocks of actuality. While she is a woman, and he a man, there's still something separating them: She's a lady, and he's a man. A lady and a man who are buying. Paige begins to mull over the relative advantages between a toaster and a toaster-oven, while Spanky simply needs to seize the very first thing that appears like a toaster and go. Paige, being the nice hostess, provides in simpler than any self-respecting girl ever should. Gal doing guy things: She's out with Ty. Shhhh! While on their discipline journey to the Magic Land of Big Routers, Ty - referring to himself within the third person - corrects Tina's misconceptions of a high-tech router, which he claims just isn't so very similar to a "funky noticed" (in Tina's phrases) as it's like the Terminator. Insert your California recall joke right here. However, Ty quickly defers to the Keeper of the Router for extra complicated information. On this the Keeper fails, basically regurgitating Ty's words however with more jargon and fewer action film references. Guy doing gal issues, part 2: It's a bust. And cease taking a look at Paige's! Paige declares the buying trip "a bust". Now we know Best Buy did not pay much. But Spanky has an thought! A Playstation for the children! Imagine taking part in that on the bigscreen Tv! Paige says, "Oh, dude, you are considering!" What he hasn't considered is that there's going to be a holy battle over that Tv when the parents want to observe cable and the children wish to play Crash Bandicoot. Gal doing guy issues, half 2: What-what-WHAT? Ty discusses something with Tina over the router noise. It sounds to me like "I really feel the goowa bafudgeit! 'Cuz I fava mudgeit! Az az a lovely thing!" Tina responds with "Take a walk all the way down to my home next!" I believe Ty's speaking about how you may make lovely issues with a large budget. Nepotism! Doug has employed an old coworker (nicely, an old manager, I believe - Doug used to work in his shop) named Chris to help Amy Wynn do some wainscoting work. Doug kisses Amy Wynn to speed up the work. Chris declines a similar boon. That's a lovely wainscoat: So, of two pronunciations of 'wainscoting' I found in all the dictionaries I checked and one I discovered only in a few, they went for the rarer one. Okay, nice. I hear "Postal 2" is de facto good. Let's get that. Ah, the wonders of choosing a recreation to go together with the PS2. After Paige and her pal show their incompetence at enjoying, Spanky grabs a sport and says "This looks like a child's sport." An extremely scientific strategy to do it, in comparison with, say, the score. Paige says it seems to be extra like a kid's sport than, say, (Paige grabs semirandom title) "this". Some rewinding and fastforwarding later and that i realized it was Everquest! Bwa-ha-ha! A terrific plug for the Evercrack Elven Princess and her twin Boobs of Fanboy Attraction +5! Paige, completely satisfied about their reasoned selection of sport, lets out a scream. No doubt the opposite clients, who I'm sure are even now being held in the far side of the store by TLC safety goons, have been blissful to hear her whoop of ecstasy. Lil' Miss Eloi visits her pet Morlock: Laurie gasps, either because her basement stitcher has completed the gold desk skirts he was doing, or as a result of the Paige whoop within the final scene deafened her. "Oh, it is so great!" Definitely the skirt, then. Seeing one completed, with yellow-gold topper fabric, elicits an extra half-moaned "Oh, that's lovely." I stated it, there's an orgasmically joyous squeal coming up. Are they sporting seatbelts? With 770 dollars left after shopping for the PS2 - It was solely $230 after taxes, with a recreation? - Paige and Spanky talk about their next stop. Spanky, clearly trying to recall the road from memory, says: "What about Home Depot has a... a... residence store!* Home Style... retailer! And it's all excessive-finish appliances... uh, or hello-excessive-finish** issues for your own home." He then provides a hastily-mumbled, "We can go there." *Paige quietly starts to immediate him before he catches himself. **He provides the PS2 box he's holding a slap to emphasise his level - or his frustration - right here. Poor Spanky, Paige is making you're employed for your new cabinets. In all fairness, although, Paige's angst-ridden look, supposedly as she was weighing benefits of the 20 minute one-method journey to the house Depot retailer, adopted by a determined "STEP ON IT!" to the limo driver, was solely nominally more genuine and much more annoying than Spanky's hack job on the home Depot line. In another dimension, Doug pushes "Barbie Doll" into some sewing, so she "steps on it" and zips via about $5 of the 75-dollar-a-yard silk curtains instantly. Doug admonishes her and speaks menacingly of messing up 300 dollars in silk. Now all Barb has to do is tick off Paige and she'll have aggravated your entire holy trinity of Designer, Carpenter, and the Perky Host. Poor girl, tv life isn't treating her well at all. Though, if Doug's using 75-greenback-a-yard silk for drapes, what's Laurie going to do to trump him? $200 per yard? And one other thought: If Doug's so nervous about the silk, why's he drinking proper over it? Meanwhile, with the competent feminine homeowner.... Ty, now back on the home, takes a break from the cocktail desk of routing wonders to point out Tina how his grasp plan on the shelving system goes. After a lot moaning and groaning, he suits the leisure center shelving system into place on the longer term wall mount. They don't precisely slide as a lot as they can be yanked out of place and stuck into a barely different horizontal place. But hey, better to have a snug fit than to have all of your CDs fall out of the shelf. He also known as down the routing magic on the shelving system, to make fantastic horizontal grooves into which CD jewel circumstances fit. Tina reiterates her need to get Ty in her house. Then he says "Are you loopy? There isn't any room for me over there!" Oh, great. Now Tina is aware of in regards to the Legions of Doug ravaging the land whereas she was locked within the basement with a stitcher. I went to the World Expo in Montreal. It was way cooler than this. Paige and Spanky pull up in entrance of the Expo Design Center. I assumed they had the fallacious place until I saw the comparatively tiny writing "A home Depot Company" underneath the name. Between his manly procuring approach and his admitted lack of technology skill, he goes for the blender that, as Paige says, simply has an on and off switch. My blender's older than I am and it has more options than that. We now pause for a break from the Spank & Mindy show. Back residence, Barbie is indignant (heh heh) that Paige and Spanky are off having fun. Doug turns the screws a bit about the money, the limo, Paige.... Hey, I'd quite him off in a limo with Paige and a thousand dollars than him off alone in a limo with a thousand dollars. Paige isn't a lady now, she's a lady who's buying. Whole 'nother being right there. She's about as sexy as a dead fish to an average guy right now. Doug turns the screws a bit extra, invoking the work "perky". Because you realize that each screaming tryst is described as "perky". Spanky is doing all the homework tonight. Bad, dangerous Spanky. We now finish our pause. Paige, displaying her perkiness, makes an attempt to buy much of the store earlier than realizing her price range will not hold. She screams a bit too. I hope Barb didn't hear that. After the industrial, and with darkness lurking exterior the home windows, they arrive house. Doug struggles with the video game title "Jak and Daxter", renaming it "Jak and Dax. Ter." Barb hopes they have more than that. Paige: "Of course We've got Greater than THAT!" I was hoping she'd say they blew it all on champagne, a hot tub, and a few strippers. But it is a household present. Not that Paige dresses all that a lot heavier than the Everquest babe. (Though Paige has by no means been chained to an altar, a lot to the dismay of among the fanbase.) Doug seems to be expecting more than six(ish) boxes. When there is not, he falls again into diplomat mode and says "Well, that is rather a lot! Cool-cool-cool-cool." Paige is $68 underneath finances, by the best way. It's sunny once more! Ty drives out to see Amy Wynn. He uses, in fact, his super golf cart. He nearly goes into the identical spin he did with a toy car at the highest of the episode. Amy Wynn has enough faith to not dive for cowl, the fool. The two carpenters commiserate about their workloads and exalt at the true Wood they're utilizing. Amy Wynn explains Doug's want to abuse the mahogany with ebony stain. Ty, being Ty, says "Ebony and mahogany? Ain't that a song?" Sadly, Amy Wynn doesn't belt-sand his face off. It's dark again? Paige declares the fading daylight, which has began to fade after its brief stint of being darkish, then gentle again. The second-shift Home Depot individuals are placing Doug's ground in. He berates Spanky - sorry, "John" - for being out all day with Paige. Laurie reveals off her maple floors. Cinnamon-coloured maple floors. Brown, who'da thunk it? Though it does look good. Homework: General Doug's two conscripted grunts might be painting the ceiling while the house Depot hirelings do the ground. That strikes me as a dance and a half, until everybody learns methods to wall-stroll. Laurie wants her individuals to install the ground. Oh, wait, she's simply kidding! A 4-particular person Home Depot crew are doing the flooring. In reality, the homeowners must polyurethane the wall-shelf thingy and paint the molding for the room. Paige confronts Doug on the wood staining. He refuses to debate it, for he's the final. Except he cannot inform the difference between home and Home Depot anymore. Paige says they're both delirious. The legions are most likely considering relieving him of command. Doug clearly hasn't found the trick of mainlining some caffeine crystals. If it would not kill you, you may keep up for weeks! Oh, and father mutant children. Paige also uses the super golf cart to drive Laurie dwelling, or to whatever short-term domicile is serving the function thereof. When Laurie lists the day's achievements, Paige responds with "No! Get out!" and stops the cart. Laurie finishes speaking and will get out of the cart. Wow, I didn't think Paige really meant that figure of speech literally. Abandoning Laurie in the middle of nowhere with nothing but a digicam crew, floodlights, and whatever transportation the digicam crew's using? How will she ever get dwelling? What a heartless bitch. No-drip paint roller: Barbie and John talk about the painted ceiling. They have faith in Doug, even though they suppose it is weird to paint a ceiling. Woah, that's saying one thing. It's saying something else that John's utilizing a clean white roller to paint the ceiling gray. Tiring of this feat, he also helps install the crown molding. The son of Appliances are better than leisure: Paige, with an umbrella and in different clothes from the day's filming, springs the free Tv/speakers/and many others. thing on James and Tina. Wow, I guess self-confessed tech-illiterate John is getting a fancy-schmancy Tv as nicely. Paige calls Tina "Dude!" but forgets that the Dell Dude and his ilk made that little bit of vernacular gender-impartial. She says "I just called you each dudes! I'm delirious!" Maybe we should always relieve her of command. I do know this guy named Joe who's received internet hosting experience. Paige then springs the computer shock as nicely. Tina responds with "Cut the s---!" and is sensible enough to appreciate that she's going to be getting similar surprises. James, after Paige leaves, suggests asking for much more stuff, since all the pieces they've considered so far has been included. Ah, sensible homeowner needs to milk this for all it is value. Day 2. Well, Day 1.9999: Doug, in more informal duds as well, will get to lug the still-perky and still-informally-dressed Paige into the half-completed room (at 2 AM) to verify the paint job. He sees spots on the ceiling. I feel he is just seeing spots, period. He sends Paige residence for her beauty sleep. Maybe he's seeing spots and thinks she's obtained acne or something. Barbie says that Paige would not need magnificence sleep. Doug kisses Paige on the cheek. Paige says, dreamily - because she's about to fall asleep - "I really feel more lovely already!" and leaves. First Amy Wynn, now Paige. My God, I'm getting jealous of Doug. Someone shoot me. Over at Casa Del Maple Floor, one of the pleasant hardworking Home Depot people (who work all evening on things for everybody, I'm sure) semi-jokingly decides to take a 5 hour coffee break. His head's in all probability on a pike at Home Depot's corporate HQ proper now. Paige, feeling somewhat useless with the pile of educated professionals around, lastly goes residence. Her meandering speech makes me assume the left side of her brain (or her scriptwriter) has already gone to sleep. Whatever she's taking, I need some. Paige, inhumanly perky as ever, shows up after 3 hours of sleep to start out Day 2 correct. Laurie, upon seeing the floors, sits down on them and begins.... What? Oh, no, don't do the splits. Don't do them, don't do them don'tdothem don'tdothemdon'tdothem ARRRRRRRGH! Well, not quite the splits, but no matter it was, it was neither ladylike nor inside my vary of consolation. Fortunately, the marble fireplace is not massive sufficient for her to sprawl on. Doug finds his expenses taking a look at some electronics and the instruction manuals of mentioned electronics. John claims there's no English instructions, solely French. You already know he just burned the English ones so he would not get caught having to learn them and put the stuff together. Jester romances: Now that Doug's military has apparently left and is wantonly redecorating the countryside, I'd like to entertain you with a little bit of purple prose. She, with gentle and adoring contact, caressed her one true love. She recited her love's virtues intimately, for all to hear. She took this image of perfection into her arms and proclaimed with a breathy voice that "This, this is drapery." Yep, Laurie's drapes have arrived. And that i defy anybody to write down a extra accurate description of Laurie's behavior on this scene. Oh, by the way, this scene also introduces Greg, the second of Laurie's fabric wranglers - compared to Doug's, say, none - one she in all probability had in an outsourced dungeon. As her newest (and only second, not counting the floor labor) indentured slave hangs the drapes, Laurie lays some carpet, customized cut by a agency in her adopted house city. It looks faintly like a large Tetris piece. Doug's timing is manner off. Maybe he needs a brand new belt. Doug is actually seeking Barbie and John's okay for something. Seems that he doesn't like the tile on the fireplace and would like to put some marble up. Considering that he inpergonated the tile flooring in opposition to the homeowner's earlier wishes, I do not suppose he ought to start looking for permissions at this late stage. Nice legs. Amy Wynn's engaged on the table legs. Paige has turned traitor and is saying staining the desk won't be so unhealthy. Perhaps General Doug threatened to have her shot... ... and possibly with the nail gun he's utilizing to nail the wainscoting onto the wall. We love Greg. We want to provide Greg a medal. As Laurie's giving one in every of her trademark Speeches About Things She Doesn't Know Much About, she says "The pleat up high - he did the pinched pleat because...." Greg interrupts her. "Gathered." Laurie responds with a sideways look and a terse "Thank you." earlier than persevering with her lecture on how the drapes have gathered pleats to make them contemporary and informal. She ends with, "So these are real relaxed" - instantly she hastens her speech - "Italian-silk-drapery-that-cost-six-thousand-dollars!" She also twitches like she's combating a need to do the Funky Chicken. Simply because he doesn't remember it doesn't mean he will not miss it! Doug, Paige, and Barbie sit on the ground and start unwrapping the various kitcheny accouterments Doug bought. So many he is misplaced monitor of what he purchased. Paige, perhaps nonetheless somewhat mentally fried after solely three hours of sleep, begins enjoying with some contraption that appears like wood spoons tied collectively at their middle. Not garnering sufficient consideration with this, she grabs a bowl and inverts it, not noticing that there was something inside. The online impact of that is that she dumps one tissue-coated and possibly-fragile object onto one other probably-fragile object. Doug has the horror-adopted-by-a-short-tempered-scolding reaction you'd anticipate of someone in his footwear. Then Barbie pipes up and says, in a tone I haven't heard since my last encounter with an elementary faculty tattle-tale, "She's simply making an attempt to get you over funds. She's gonna break it!" Ladies and gentlemen, now we have the hat trick. First Amy Wynn with the noticed, then Doug with the sewing machine, now Paige with the accessories. She has put in a stable try at ticking all three of them off. Because it was, the dropped object was just wooden bowls and nothing else seemed damaged. Only a bit extra fabric... Laurie's obtained Tina and James working on reupholstering kitchen-kind chairs. She tries to freak Tina by performing like Tina staple-gunned her finger. Wait 'til you get again to your house and see the drapes. You'll have an embolism! Doug reveals the distinction between a $1,500 high-end lamp that he obtained from someone in the identical building as his art studio and a $65 thrift-shop buy. Not a lot, the way in which he is talking. I suppose he does not want to purchase from that individual again.... Barbie gasps on the $1,500 value tag. Paige and Barbie prefer the expensive one. Just on the colour, I need to agree. Though $1,435 looks as if a giant markup just for the distinction between icky mustard yellow and sky blue. Oh, and remember the costly one's teardrop upper half, compared to the other one's cylindrical upper half. And the jangly issues. Doug has kept at the least one among his legion for the second day: The artisan named Ron who's painting some plasterish fashionable-art thingy on the wall. Flee from the market: Laurie exhibits off her mass of equipment. Tina says it appears like a flea market. Laurie says it's far more expensive than a flea market. Yeah, nevertheless it still seems like a flea market. Laurie: A $100 tchotchke is still a tchotchke. As if in response to this, she whips out a 19th century sunburst Italian mirror. Tina asks how old it's. Laurie as a substitute tells Tina when she thinks it was made. "It's in all probability late, late 1800s. Like 1890, most likely flip-of-the-century." Excuse me, but when it was turn-of-the-century wouldn't or not it's a twentieth century sunburst Italian mirror? James, as he is performed all episode, notably with the chairs, allows Laurie her huge moment: He asks the worth. About $1800. Man, she likes that quantity. Dates, prices, if it is not within the 1800 vary it is not value it. The inclusion of fabric, after all, requires an incidental 500% markup. You've never requested for one before, why start now? Doug decides, as soon as the countertop is in, to take the unprecedented move of asking someone (namely, Barbie) for an opinion. She does not prefer it. Surprise! Though, for once, I agree with Barbie utterly. A pattern (marble, granite, etc.) would look higher than strong white. Doug, performing one other marvel in a day already stuffed with wonders, explains his reasoning: "In order for me to put a top quality countertop in right here and not go along with a laminate, the only thing available is Corian Glacier White." So, was this a value situation, an inventory problem, what? "Give it a chance, as a result of what's going to happen is, by the stuff you placed on the countertops and accessorizing it, and we throw in pops of coloration, it is all gonna work. And, and, it is gonna... we'll put some life into this place, okay? I believe in the long run you're gonna prefer it." I translated that as saying "It is likely to be a pig, however we have not put the lipstick on it but." Whatever you placed on it, it is still gonna be a stark white countertop. You can't bury all of it! Geometry for rank novices: Ty strikes bits of the cocktail desk around semi-purposelessly as Laurie appears to be like on. Ty appears to be going for a cube. No spanking, so we'll pop some bubble paper. Paige, cruelly snuffing out bubble paper bubbles, declares that the time has come for Tina and James to start the elusive Paige Gift hunt. Tina and James want to get an entire dwelling entertainment library. Paige seems unimpressed. Tina wins the onscreen coin toss and can be off on the hunt. Damn, no low-cost intercourse jokes this time. Happiness is a warm gun. Give one to Doug. No, wait, give it to ME! The place that Amy Wynn took her magnum opus, the mahogany table, to be sanded, took over 3/eight of an inch - almost A HALF AN INCH - off the table, so now the nails that she punched into the underside of the desk are displaying via the highest. Doug needs names and addresses of the perpetrators. No less than, till Amy Wynn points out that she must faucet in all the nails, leaving an ugly sample. After that, Doug just says they will not see it after he stains it. Yeah, besides there's nonetheless a bunch of nails sticking out the bottom of the desk! I want Doug's title and tackle, then. Oh, wait, I have his identify. Also, because abusing the mahogany with stain wasn't dangerous sufficient, he has to hurry-job it and stain the maple along with the mahogany, something Amy Wynn cannot guess at the outcome of. Doug admits that he would not know either. Amy Wynn appears to be like about as ticked off as I could be if I spent two days on one thing and had somebody come along and want to screw round with it in methods even HE would not perceive. How many butchers did you must kill for that, then? Members of Doug's army are rubbing butcher's wax on the partitions for reasons I fail to understand. Speed up! Speed up! Make pizza out of the cameraman! The limo from the buying trip yesterday artfully stops in front of a cameraman who's busy catching Tina's first glimpse of the limo. Yo, yo, yo! Ty 'State' Pennington is in tha hizzy! Word! The pre-business bumper is Ty, confirming my suspicions, in full purple and leopard-print gear, together with the bling-bling ring and phat necklace from yesterday. He looks like an extra from Pimps at Sea. Speaking of whoring.... Sony Vega ad number three, not counting in-present product placement. Rewind time: What? An ad for the hundred grand show? I'm WATCHING IT! Oh, it is the encore. I idly observe that they'd a black limo in the ad, and a white one in-show. I'm additionally reminded of what a total goddess Amy Wynn is when she's not dressed in butch carpenter gear. Now, we have to see about not dressed, interval. Awwwww. Tina will get all choked up about the surprise of all that's happened. Gun! I would like the freaking gun! Doug, with Barbie at his aspect because Amy Wynn's in all probability within the fetal place somewhere, is not pleased with the "professional" sanding on the desk. The staining has made obvious what appears to be like like abrasion traces from the sanding. But, in contrast to Doug, I'm additionally unhappy with the staining: It appears like somebody took a flamethrower to the desk. (Meanwhile, Ty's masterworks, the good-looking shelves and fireplace mantle, are being installed.) Doug decides to get the stain off the maple, then tape the maple up LIKE HE Should HAVE Done IN The first PLACE, restain any unstained mahogany, then oil-rub the whole table. Doug: I hope Birnam Wood marches to your home and kicks your ass! Ewwwww. Tina sets Paige up for catastrophe by utilizing this logic: $1000 divided by $20/CD or DVD = 500 objects. First off, no one in the identical universe because the RIAA pays that little for a CD newer than 1995 vintage. DVD's ain't cheap both. Second, taxes. Finally, $1000/$20 = 50. Looks like Paige is gonna be the one being told she's gone overbudget for a change. As they stand on the checkout, Paige (the sunshine going on) imparts this last little bit of knowledge on Tina. Paige has a future profession in authorities budget balancing. Tina asks the cashier if they will start over. The cashier says sure. The cashier is being paid to say yes. Tina says, cryptically, "Only favorites!" So you were going to buy motion pictures that your neighbors hated...? Hey, it pays higher than 'housewife': As the shelves go up and Laurie plans the tchotchke invasion, she asks Ty how they're going to ever go back to their real jobs. She hastily adds "of Trading Spaces". Ty says "Oh! I believed you meant upkeep." This would be a pleasant means of firing someone. "It's the best thing you have ever performed. Oh, by the way in which, pick up two weeks' pay and clear out your locker. Security will escort you out." Woah. Doppelganger moment. Paige speaks to the limo driver briefly, giving him a few seconds on digital camera to brag to the family with. (Looks.) Woah, man, he appears like an older model of this man I labored with final yr! Same hair and every little thing! HEY BUDDY! You recognize A guy NAMED J.C. McLEAN? MarkNathanorJohn MarkNathanorJohn, who's actually Mark, helps put the fridge in. Despite homeowner John doing all of the pushing, Doug ignores him to appease the company Gods and proclaim that "The new black is orange!" (Orange as in the home Depot shirt shade.) The company Gods have to have this one explained to them, for they suppose it is some type of African-American reference. Run Laurie over! Run a production assistant over! For God's sake, RUN Someone OVER! Paige and Tina get back, nonetheless riding in the limo, as Laurie and James look on. Whereas Laurie's normally wailing while Paige talks of funds overruns, now that the shoe's on the opposite foot... ... Laurie's still wailing (about time constraints) and Paige continues to be talking about budget overruns. Some things by no means change. Maybe we may get collectively on weekends and you possibly can take orders...? Guys? Guys? General Doug's army finally disbands. Doug makes some cryptic feedback in regards to the marble for the fireplace. It's universal as a result of it is bigger than the universe. Laurie and Paige put a giant painting on the mantle. "It's type of a common painting, 'trigger it is a landscape, however yet it is acquired an abstract(?) high quality...." I feel it overwhelms the fireplace. Paige makes use of the phrase "Kick it up a notch." Emeril's gonna kick your ass, Paige. BAM! General Doug and his final two soldiers are holed up in a tent in Plymouth.... Doug says it's playtime! Whee! Time to move the furnishings in! What? Doug's obtained one kinky idea of fun. Holy Hell, she mentioned "Heck"! Laurie discusses lacking marble (Oy vey.) and says she is aware of she didn't put it in her car as a result of it is "heavy as heck". This deserves its personal merchandise. Well, no, however I considered this next headline and couldn't pass it up: You lost them a long time ago, honey. Oh, it's singular. Never thoughts. After some pretty muted agonizing (for Laurie) about her misplaced marble, Ty comes along and reads his traces admirably, 'unintentionally' implicating Doug in naughtiness. Paige asks if Laurie's being arrange. Laurie says no. Obviously not, since we have tripped past the land of most likely-scripted into oh-boy-is-this-faux. Laurie goes on the hunt for Doug. Doug is outside hiding a tile cutter and tossing marble away from mentioned cutter. Laurie sneaks up behind him - he ought to borrow some of Ty's magic early warning system mojo - and confronts him. The most memorable half being when Laurie says "You can run, darling, however you can't disguise!" That's not memorable, what's memorable is that Doug is bobbing up and down (hiding tile) and yet she appears to keep her eyes locked on the place Doug's head could be if he weren't bobbing. Is the cue card man over there or something? The Realm of The Archon vs. The Land of Laurie: The bloody battle for supremacy continues. James, unable to play sounding board for Laurie's price-tallying methods, broadcasts that the lamp shades Laurie purchased are ninety bucks a pop. Tina says "Well, James, we're living in the Land of Laurie and that's chump change." Best quote all episode. Laurie slips Doug the tongue: That'll keep you studying. Well, truly, she grabs his face, sticks out her tongue, and makes a raspberry noise. Apt punishment for stealing marble tile, to be sure. But given the quantity of saliva that may throw, I believe it is shut enough to depend as an intimate gesture. Paige, after all, comes along and deflates Laurie's balloon by mentioning the electrician thing. Laurie and Paige run away laughing. Doug is left alone, confused and offended. When will the hurting cease, Paige? But that scene was nice entertainment. Compared to the Ty/Amy Wynn battle, anyway. Watching Doug nonchalantly toss marble around was a deep and profound experience of top of the range that the individuals of the world needs to be compelled to see for their own profit. Quickies: Memorable moments from the ultimate meeting montage: 1) Ty and James hook up the Tv, DVD, and so forth. Except they don't use any cables. They by no means use any cables on shows like these. 2) Laurie putting the Italian drapes, mirror, and chair all in one convenient place for unity. That, and so Marmaduke can wreck all of them with one badly-aimed leap. Munchies! Ty, ever the gent- oh, used that line earlier than. Ty makes to bust open a bag of chips all over Laurie's springfall-recent room, all while scuffing the coffee desk along with his sneakers. Doug, then again, lastly hangs the massive lampshade he bought at the top of the episode. Paige proclaims that time's up while roaming around alone at nighttime with a flashlight. I assume Laurie acquired her back for that golf cart incident. And if not, I need to discover a solution to blame Laurie anyway. The before and afters make one thing apparent: The rooms swapped colours. The kitchen that was heavy on yellows and different vivid colors is now blue-grey. The blue-gray living room is now yellow. Chestertown Buff, sorry. Repeated jokes and old puns: Ah, the pre-industrial bumper the place Doug's received Laurie slung over his shoulder. If you're anticipating some joke about Doug having Laurie throughout him, then you're going to be dissatisfied. Not as a result of I'm above that, I simply couldn't assume of one to trump the tongue joke. But is Laurie sporting something under her shirt or is that her unnaturally pale back I'm seeing the place her shirt rides up? Chit-chat time: I'll let you know, after two hours of Laurie in that one outfit, the crimson sleeveless quantity she has on for the chat is a welcome change. Man, and I thought I was pale. Incidentally, Ty's cocktail table is neat. A bit busy for the room, however neat. Oh, and the value of the fabric for the curtains? $120 per yard. I knew she'd beat Doug. Only strategy to trump silk is to seize an imported bolt of Italian fabric. Final funds: $49,300. That lost $700 pains Ms. Smith vastly. My opinion on the room? Laurie commonplace, solely more fabric-obnoxious. Cluttered. Pieces are, for essentially the most part, good individually, however the room can't handle 'em all. The flowers that vanish proper at the top of the cease-motion room redo is a pleasant contact, too. Reveal? Big deal: Did Barbie look not-terribly-amazed when she first opened her eyes? What a part of the room was she looking at? John notices the Tv. He's attempting to redeem himself, good boy. Paige takes the opening to clarify that Sony donated the Tv and related rigging - it wasn't part of the price range. Sure as hell hope they donated the wires too. Overall response: Amazed. Laurie and Ty hid in the kitchen and watched the reveal. Their opinion? Laurie thinks they beloved it. Ty's more pragmatic: "Who wouldn't?" I believe he means the money quantity spent, not the design itself. But the assertion's ambiguous sufficient that I give him points for rare diplomacy. Oh, rattling, I can not hate him now. Ty's comments to Laurie at the top, throughout her hand-clasping "I'd do that room time and again; I would not change a factor." gesturama, had been wonderful. He asks, "You wouldn't reduce down on just a few of the knickknacks?" That and his sarcastic touch upon how the room wanted "another piece of furnishings" redeemed him. He's again in my good graces, but if it was between him and Amy Wynn, I'd nonetheless assist her chopping his head off. Hate transference: However.... Judging by her "it will not fit" response to the "yet one more piece of furniture" remark, Laurie didn't notice Ty was being sarcastic. His easy "Oh, I do know that." was amazingly diplomatic, extra so than my "He's being sarcastic, you brainless mass of Italian-fabric-draped ego!" or something to that effect. Let's see what he's cookin' up tonight. Today. Just right. The kitchen's nice, except for the countertop. Say what you will, the white cupboards plus the white countertop and the halogen lights is simply an excessive amount of. Something must be grey, or one thing a little less vibrant and stark. Even white with some pattern. I just realized that they moved the stove. Man, that's gonna be a tough room for the homeowners to cook in for some time. Oh, and will the silk drapes survive that near the cooking area? And while with reference to drapes, I'd like to place in a vote against drapes that drag on the ground like this. You cannot make a drape that drags look good! The desk still has shades of flamethrower abuse, though some magic has transformed it from godawful to tolerable. Four chairs, no couch. None of them pointing on the Tv, which is excessive over the fireplace and also you'd must crane your neck to look at it. Or lie down, which you cannot, because there is no sofa! Smooth move, Doug. Just needed to get one of those "aesthetic" unusability tips in there. Paige nails it when she says the flatscreen "Looks like artwork up there!" Translation: You did not want to get artwork, and also you did not know the place to place the Tv, so that you killed two birds with one stone. Final finances: $50,000 less $28. That's impressive. It would be much more spectacular if he'd purchased a painting for the fireplace and stuck the Tv someplace else. Like where that "artisan" pal of Doug's was working. Two days and all he did artwork-wise was three rectangles of paint? What the hell am I lacking here? The residing room of the kitchen/dwelling/dining room combo is a bit cramped, which makes me think that Doug does two-and-a-half rooms for Laurie's one. Reveal? Bigger deal: They like the room. Loads, it seems. Tina notices the kitchen's change in flooring plan immediately. Paige would not seem to (or wish to) choose up on it and just keeps speaking about the new stuff. Doug and Amy Wynn like the heat glow of large amounts of money and Real Wood. Final verdict: I'm not fond of both one, however largely for usability points. Though I wasn't fond of them before, they at least regarded like you wouldn't come out of them with neck cramps. We'll say okay job because of the low incidence of fatal screwups. Well.... I do hope you enjoyed these ten thousand plus phrases, but if you didn't, at the least take comfort in my surprise at your studying the whole thing. Goodnight! Beat a hasty retreat to the primary web page.

Trading Spaces is owned by these Banyan people, or one thing. TLC's got something to do with it, too. I do not personal those. If I did, I'd most likely fire Laurie. Or have Doug in front of a firing squad.
