The Block

S08:E46 - Episode 46

Anastasia and Tim are trying to put on a brave face and get their work done this week. They have a huge amount of work to do but not a great deal of money. Ayden and Jess’s terrace is almost completely clad in their CSR product and Keith is impressed with how good it looks. Dea and Darren have a huge team of people working on their terrace which is also taking shape. The apartments all have a finger print reader installed, a great security feature. Tradesmen are issuing final invoices. Tim and Anastasia’s plasterer Pauley has just given Anastasia his final invoice for $19,5000. Keith is a little worried because he knows Tim and Anastasia don’t have enough money to pay the bill. Pauley talks to Anastasia who says its all good. Ayden and Jess install their own vertical garden. Ayden and Darren talk about whether or not Tim has paid all his trade bills so far and Darren decides to confront the couple, with Josh and Ayden there to witness the confrontation. Darren tells T and A that there are rumours going around that their trades haven’t been paid and he thinks that’s cheating. Tim says they’ve just received the last invoice and Anastasia and Tim aren’t happy, they think Darren’s burning his own integrity by going behind their backs to talk to their tradesmen. Darren thinks Tim and Anastasia are cheating, Josh and Ayden feel awkward about being involved in the meeting and Tim isn’t happy that his integrity has been questioned and that Darren has contacted he and Anastasia’s trades. Scotty and Shelley arrive for a check on progress and they start with Josh and Charlotte who have almost finished their spectacular vertical garden. Next up Tim and Anastasia drop a bombshell when its discovered that they don’t have enough money to pay their latest invoice from Pauley. Shelley says they haven’t budgeted properly so Tim offers to pay for it out of his own pocket. Scotty says he’ll pay the $20,000 bill and then the money will come off their reserve price if Tim and Anastasia don’t have the money to pay for it. Tim and Anastasia walk off site after their chat with Scotty and Shelley. Anastasia has had enough and decides to leave. Jess is mortified that Ayden was involved and says she’d walk off if it happened to them. Jess thinks it’s no one else’s business to accuse their competitors of cheating. Jess, Charlotte and Josh hide away from the cameras to talk about how horrible they feel about what’s happened. Scotty and Shelley tell Dea and Darren what’s happened and Dea is really sad about it. She calls Anastasia and leaves her a message. Jess and Ayden are also upset about the news but they joke about taking Tim and Anastasia’s apartment and joining it to theirs! Josh and Charlotte send a message to Tim and Anastasia and promise them they won’t let the bullies get to them. Jess thinks that the couple have been bullied and says she also would have walked off site if she was on the receiving end of Darren’s confrontation.
