The Block

S08:E38 - Episode 38

Tonight Scotty and the contestants get to fly across Melbourne in a helicopter before they are dropped to the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Josh is so excited and so is Ayden. For Darren it brings back memories of games played here. The teams must make over two of the hospitality suites that are managed by Cricket Australia. There are two teams, with odds vs evens. Charlotte and Josh and Ayden and Jess are Team 1. Dea and Daz and Tim and Anastasia are Team 2. The winning team will receive a tradesmen bill paid for the entire week. There will be a special guest judge to decide the winner. The Good Guys are building some kitchens for the two rooms and the teams have an additional $6000 each for their rooms. Team 1 are quickly named Team Happy, with their enthusiasm and good ideas pouring out for the beginning of the challenge. Team Grumpy next door aren’t getting on. Darren thinks a laser print on the wall would work well but the others prefer memorabilia hung on the walls. Darren and Dea aren’t getting on well at all. Ayden goes to Mitre 10 with a plan and Dea and Anastasia go shopping. Tim and Darren go shopping too for some boys toys for their suite. Anastasia tells Dea that they have no money left and that she was close to leaving the show. Dea tells her to stick at it, they’re almost at the end! Ayden wants to make his own bench tops - and hires all the gear from Kennards then he heads to a workshop to get started. Team Happy Ayden and Jess and Josh and Charlotte are the winners! While the teams are out at their challenge, their kitchens are taking shape back at The Block. Ayden wakes up the next day a little sick, he’s got the man flu! And Jess isn’t sympathetic. Anastasia confronts Keith and Dan about being called lazy. She was really upset about comments made about her and Tim eating breakfast out. Keith apologies but says that she and Tim still need to give a little more effort if they want their rooms to be completed. Scotty arrives to check on progress and give all the teams an encouraging pep talk. Anastasia fills Scotty in with what has happened with their second kitchen design. Scotty tries to come up with a solution to suggest to the couple but Anastasia isn’t happy that they weren’t consulted on their second kitchen design. Scotty explains that there was no conspiracy to change their kitchen design and that the kitchen was re-designed because there was concern that the windows were being blocked off. There are two options. The kitchen can be altered to make it work a little better or they can have a whole new kitchen installed. The Good Guys arrive to resolve the kitchen design for Tim and Anastasia. They decide to adjust the kitchen to try and make it work for reveal.
