1
00:00:01,689 --> 00:00:03,448
[Jonathan] <i>After striking
a major chord onGlee,</i>

2
00:00:03,448 --> 00:00:07,793
<i>this multi-talented superstar
has taken Broadway, film and
TV to the next level.</i>

3
00:00:07,793 --> 00:00:09,965
I am so psyched
that you guys are here.

4
00:00:09,965 --> 00:00:12,586
[Jonathan] <i>Now Darren Criss
is saying thank you to Ricky.</i>

5
00:00:12,586 --> 00:00:13,793
We started as friends.

6
00:00:13,793 --> 00:00:16,620
We bonded over 90's music.
We just hit off immediately.

7
00:00:16,620 --> 00:00:18,655
[Jonathan] <i>His best friend
of over a decade.</i>

8
00:00:18,655 --> 00:00:21,379
Without him,
I truly don't know
where I'd be.

9
00:00:21,379 --> 00:00:23,655
[Jonathan] <i>Who he claims,
got him the break
in the business.</i>

10
00:00:23,655 --> 00:00:26,034
Ricky was the first guy
to get me gigs.

11
00:00:26,034 --> 00:00:28,482
[Jonathan] <i>He's turning
Ricky's detached garage.</i>

12
00:00:28,482 --> 00:00:30,379
[Darren] <i>This guy needs
a place where he can work.</i>

13
00:00:30,379 --> 00:00:32,275
A place where he can maybe
bang on his drums.

14
00:00:32,275 --> 00:00:34,965
[Jonathan] <i>Into a much needed
office meets guest suite.</i>

15
00:00:34,965 --> 00:00:37,206
- [cheering]
- [crackling]

16
00:00:37,206 --> 00:00:39,206
[Jonathan] <i>And entertaining
us, along the way.</i>

17
00:00:39,206 --> 00:00:41,310
[vocalizing in sync]

18
00:00:41,310 --> 00:00:42,206
[Jonathan] Bam!

19
00:00:42,206 --> 00:00:43,827
<i>It's a well-deserved gift.</i>

20
00:00:43,827 --> 00:00:48,517
You've done way more great
things for me than I've ever
been able to do for you.

21
00:00:48,517 --> 00:00:50,517
[Jonathan] <i>For a truly one
of a kind friend.</i>

22
00:00:50,517 --> 00:00:51,482
[exclaiming]
What?

23
00:00:51,482 --> 00:00:53,000
I love you, Ricky.

24
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,000
- [Darren] <i>Look at this,
come on in, dude!
- [Ricky] Oh, my God!</i>

25
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:03,074



26
00:01:04,137 --> 00:01:05,758
[Jonathan] <i>Darren is one
of those guys,</i>

27
00:01:05,758 --> 00:01:07,896
that he's just
annoyingly talented.

28
00:01:07,896 --> 00:01:09,689
- [Drew chuckles]
- Because it's not just vocals.

29
00:01:09,689 --> 00:01:13,448
- He also plays piano and
harmonica and mandolin and--
- Guitar.

30
00:01:13,448 --> 00:01:15,379
You know violin
and everything.

31
00:01:15,379 --> 00:01:18,551
And now he's had Emmys
and Golden Globes

32
00:01:18,551 --> 00:01:20,896
and, I mean this career
he has built.

33
00:01:20,896 --> 00:01:22,517
I'm pretty sure though that,

34
00:01:22,517 --> 00:01:26,103
sledgehammering during
demolition is much cooler than
Emmys and Golden Globes.

35
00:01:26,103 --> 00:01:27,241
Definitely not.

36
00:01:27,241 --> 00:01:28,379
[both chuckle]

37
00:01:29,931 --> 00:01:32,379
I actually love that
he's giving back to someone

38
00:01:32,379 --> 00:01:34,896
who has been such
a big part of his life over
the last ten years.

39
00:01:34,896 --> 00:01:38,517
And it's not just that
it's a manager-client
relationship,

40
00:01:38,517 --> 00:01:40,965
it's besties,
they're almost like family.

41
00:01:40,965 --> 00:01:43,793
And I think it's really,
really cool that he wants
to make sure

42
00:01:43,793 --> 00:01:46,689
that Ricky and his wife
are getting the most
out of this property.

43
00:01:46,689 --> 00:01:48,103
Oh, this is it.
Up here on the right it.

44
00:01:48,103 --> 00:01:50,586
- [Jonathan] Here we go.
- [Drew] It's a nice
looking house.

45
00:01:50,586 --> 00:01:51,965
- [door opens]
- [Drew] Let's have some fun.

46
00:01:52,965 --> 00:01:54,103
All right.

47
00:01:54,103 --> 00:01:55,206
[door closes]

48
00:01:55,206 --> 00:01:56,931
- Hey! Whoa!
- Hey! Whoa!

49
00:01:56,931 --> 00:02:00,551
I am so, so psyched
that you guys are here.

50
00:02:00,551 --> 00:02:03,827
I'm excited. It sounds like
Ricky is the most amazing
person on the planet.

51
00:02:03,827 --> 00:02:08,275
Ricky is easily one of the
best things that ever happened
to me in my entire life.

52
00:02:09,689 --> 00:02:12,965
<i>I found Ricky quite
by happenstance.</i>

53
00:02:12,965 --> 00:02:16,172
We bonded over 90's music
and we just hit it off immediately.

54
00:02:16,172 --> 00:02:18,793
[Ricky] <i>From the get-go
I think what makes
our relationship</i>

55
00:02:18,793 --> 00:02:21,517
so amazing is that
it started--
we started as friends.

56
00:02:21,517 --> 00:02:24,137
He played the drums and I play
guitar and I was like,

57
00:02:24,137 --> 00:02:26,758
"that's my thing man,
we should play
some music some time."

58
00:02:26,758 --> 00:02:30,000
We decided let's get together
and have a jam session.

59
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,862
<i>And I kind of watched him
go from the drums,
to the guitar</i>

60
00:02:33,862 --> 00:02:37,034
<i>to singing, to base,
to literally any instrument
that was in the room.</i>

61
00:02:37,034 --> 00:02:40,862
He just did it all
and I was just like,
immediately blown away.

62
00:02:40,862 --> 00:02:43,620
<i>I was just like, "Dude, what
are you doing
with your music career?"</i>

63
00:02:43,620 --> 00:02:47,379
"Perhaps we should, you know
take this to the next step
and let's work together."

64
00:02:47,379 --> 00:02:53,241
Ricky was the first guy
to kind of get me, like gigs
and book me at venues.

65
00:02:53,241 --> 00:02:56,275
[Ricky] <i>Like any young manager
in town,</i>

66
00:02:56,275 --> 00:02:59,000
you know, you're looking
for that person

67
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:04,172
and I think the minute
I met him I was like,
"This could be my shot."

68
00:03:04,172 --> 00:03:07,586
[Darren] <i>And before I knew it,
I was playing my first show
in Los Angeles,</i>

69
00:03:07,586 --> 00:03:10,965
at the Troubadour,
which is like the Holy Grail

70
00:03:10,965 --> 00:03:12,827
of venues for like,
a singer or a song writer.

71
00:03:12,827 --> 00:03:14,103
<i>And it was all thanks
to this guy</i>

72
00:03:14,103 --> 00:03:15,586
<i>and I reached a point where
I was like, "Listen, man.</i>

73
00:03:15,586 --> 00:03:17,137
<i>You're really helping me out
with a lot of stuff.</i>

74
00:03:17,137 --> 00:03:19,034
I guess,
are you like my manager?"

75
00:03:19,034 --> 00:03:21,068
<i>You can believe in yourself
as much as you want</i>

76
00:03:21,068 --> 00:03:23,551
<i>but having that other person
that believes in you</i>

77
00:03:23,551 --> 00:03:26,103
is... is just like
the most invaluable

78
00:03:26,103 --> 00:03:29,034
plot development that
you can have
in any part of your life.

79
00:03:29,034 --> 00:03:32,310
I remember Darren calling me.
He was in Miami and

80
00:03:32,310 --> 00:03:35,103
he had talked about proposing
to his now wife

81
00:03:35,103 --> 00:03:38,655
and he was like, "I'm in the
bathroom right now
and Mia's outside.

82
00:03:38,655 --> 00:03:41,310
I think I'm gonna do it.
I think I'm gonna
do it right now."

83
00:03:41,310 --> 00:03:44,413
<i>So we always call each other
in any big life moment.</i>

84
00:03:44,413 --> 00:03:47,827
[Darren] <i>I think the dream for
anybody in any profession</i>

85
00:03:47,827 --> 00:03:49,896
<i>is to be able
to work with your friends.</i>

86
00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:53,413
And he's devoted
an unfathomable amount
of time,

87
00:03:53,413 --> 00:03:55,344
more time than
I believe I deserve,

88
00:03:55,344 --> 00:03:59,379
<i>away from his wife and his kid
to make my dreams come true.</i>

89
00:03:59,379 --> 00:04:03,517
The last ten years is just,
we've... we've travelled
the world together.

90
00:04:03,517 --> 00:04:06,482
<i>It's just been amazing,
it's just they're the things
that he's accomplished</i>

91
00:04:06,482 --> 00:04:10,068
<i>and I've sort of got to ride
shotgun with him
as we've done together.</i>

92
00:04:10,068 --> 00:04:12,275
I lucked out. Like he's
literally

93
00:04:12,275 --> 00:04:14,620
one of the best things
that ever happened to me.

94
00:04:14,620 --> 00:04:16,413
[chuckles] It's crazy.
It's crazy.

95
00:04:17,448 --> 00:04:19,103
I love you, Ricky.

96
00:04:19,103 --> 00:04:21,448
I think the loyalty you have
for Ricky is amazing too.

97
00:04:21,448 --> 00:04:25,793
It's your buddy,
who you've been with
since the beginning.

98
00:04:25,793 --> 00:04:29,413
Yeah, uh, we're definitely
lifers, I think for better or
for worse.

99
00:04:29,413 --> 00:04:33,275
And this entire time,
his office is also
his daughter's playground.

100
00:04:33,275 --> 00:04:35,586
And when they're working from
home, it gets really

101
00:04:35,586 --> 00:04:38,172
difficult, he's never really
had the space.

102
00:04:38,172 --> 00:04:42,793
You know, Ricky is an amazing
drummer and he doesn't have
space currently to do that.

103
00:04:42,793 --> 00:04:45,241
This guy needs a place
where he can work,

104
00:04:45,241 --> 00:04:47,620
needs a place where he can
maybe bang on his drums

105
00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:51,103
and a place that when
he's away, 'cause we travel
together all the time.

106
00:04:51,103 --> 00:04:52,827
- Yeah.
- The little one,

107
00:04:52,827 --> 00:04:56,758
his parents luckily live
nearby, if they're gonna come
and stay and take care of her,

108
00:04:56,758 --> 00:04:58,068
they're gonna need
a place to go.

109
00:04:58,068 --> 00:05:00,482
- So the garage can really
become that solution?
- Oh, yeah.

110
00:05:00,482 --> 00:05:03,689
'Cause right now
it's a typical LA garage
where nobody actually uses it.

111
00:05:03,689 --> 00:05:06,620
Darren wants to give Ricky
and his family a great,
flex space,

112
00:05:06,620 --> 00:05:08,172
kinda office meets
in-law suite

113
00:05:08,172 --> 00:05:10,689
<i>and a detached garage
like this is perfect for it.</i>

114
00:05:10,689 --> 00:05:12,344
Yeah, it's common
in LA to do this.

115
00:05:12,344 --> 00:05:16,310
No one really needs more house
for their car but lots
of people need more house.

116
00:05:16,310 --> 00:05:19,379
- So is Ricky here?
- No. He is gone. He's gone
for the next few weeks.

117
00:05:19,379 --> 00:05:22,310
Um, he doesn't know what
we're gonna do to his place--

118
00:05:22,310 --> 00:05:25,206
- So you're working
with his wife to like--
- Yes, we're in cahoots.

119
00:05:25,206 --> 00:05:28,310
I'm just so beyond excited
that this is something
that is possible.

120
00:05:28,310 --> 00:05:31,862
Because without him
I truly don't know
where I'd be--

121
00:05:31,862 --> 00:05:34,482
Let me point out,
'cause you're being humble.

122
00:05:34,482 --> 00:05:36,655
He's probably thinking,
this was the greatest
thing too.

123
00:05:36,655 --> 00:05:39,793
Because you play like,
200 instruments.

124
00:05:39,793 --> 00:05:42,620
This keeps coming up.
I never said,
I play these instruments well.

125
00:05:42,620 --> 00:05:45,172
These are just, like maybe,
I think photo ops.

126
00:05:45,172 --> 00:05:47,724
Maybe he can give us a couple
pointers on the a cappella situation.

127
00:05:47,724 --> 00:05:51,482
- Yeah I can.
- 'Cause I feel like we can get
some bass going here.

128
00:05:51,482 --> 00:05:54,275
- [vocalizing]
- So-- or should we just make
a chord?

129
00:05:54,275 --> 00:05:55,931
Should we just do it?

130
00:05:55,931 --> 00:05:58,034
You know, we can work on that
while we're doing the
demolition and everything.

131
00:05:58,034 --> 00:06:01,620
- You show us what you think
we should do.
- All right. Let's do it.

132
00:06:01,620 --> 00:06:04,103
All right. Here we are.
Welcome. <i>Bienvenu.</i>

133
00:06:04,103 --> 00:06:06,413
<i>This is the spot.
This is the Ricky domicile.</i>

134
00:06:06,413 --> 00:06:09,827
He's a total DIYer with
the landscaping,
he's done a lot.

135
00:06:09,827 --> 00:06:12,103
But this has
remained untouched.

136
00:06:12,103 --> 00:06:14,551
I mean there's actually
a better way to utilize this

137
00:06:14,551 --> 00:06:17,034
area too. Especially that
new space over here.

138
00:06:17,034 --> 00:06:20,689
- But I think, most importantly
is obviously the garage.
- Let's see inside, yeah.

139
00:06:20,689 --> 00:06:22,517
Let's see what's going
on there.

140
00:06:22,517 --> 00:06:24,206
- [Jonathan] Whoa!
- [Darren] Oh, yeah.

141
00:06:24,206 --> 00:06:25,793
- [Darren] This is it.
- [Jonathan] This is untouched.

142
00:06:25,793 --> 00:06:29,413
Actually the shiniest thing
in here is the drum set
that isn't being used.

143
00:06:29,413 --> 00:06:31,758
[Darren] I know, it's like
crying out to us.

144
00:06:31,758 --> 00:06:35,413
When we first walked into
the garage, it was like...
[imitates horror music]

145
00:06:35,413 --> 00:06:37,862
Just horribly ugly, everywhere.

146
00:06:37,862 --> 00:06:41,724
[Drew] <i>I can't imagine Ricky
having that as an extra
guest suite for the in-laws.</i>

147
00:06:41,724 --> 00:06:43,551
I don't think the in-laws
would ever talk to him again.

148
00:06:43,551 --> 00:06:48,517
Oh, my God! Why is there
a thumb nailed to the wall?

149
00:06:48,517 --> 00:06:50,206
Why is it labeled, "thumb"?

150
00:06:50,206 --> 00:06:54,448
[Darren] I think it's just for
the, you know, in case you
forget what a thumb is.

151
00:06:54,448 --> 00:06:57,206
[Drew] This is like when you
do your, like cheap magic
tricks, like...

152
00:06:57,206 --> 00:06:58,931
you hide a cloth in your
thumb and you do this

153
00:06:58,931 --> 00:07:00,724
and all of a sudden
there's a cloth there.

154
00:07:00,724 --> 00:07:02,137
[Darren] That was really
well done.

155
00:07:02,137 --> 00:07:05,620
As far as the actual structure
is concerned,

156
00:07:05,620 --> 00:07:07,724
we could try and vault
the ceilings so you get

157
00:07:07,724 --> 00:07:10,000
a little bit more height
in here.

158
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,620
This style of the roof,
the way it's framed,

159
00:07:12,620 --> 00:07:16,034
you don't wanna put that much
weight on one section
of this roof.

160
00:07:16,034 --> 00:07:18,827
- Because they're not
structured for that--
- This does look scary to me.

161
00:07:18,827 --> 00:07:22,310
[Jonathan] <i>I will say
the structure in here,
little precarious looking.</i>

162
00:07:22,310 --> 00:07:24,137
The way that roof
is structured right now,

163
00:07:24,137 --> 00:07:26,206
we can't cut
those cross supports,

164
00:07:26,206 --> 00:07:28,758
<i>that's what's preventing
the garage
from collapsing out.</i>

165
00:07:28,758 --> 00:07:30,655
So we're gonna wanna make sure
that we not only make it

166
00:07:30,655 --> 00:07:32,655
beautiful but that
we make it safe.

167
00:07:32,655 --> 00:07:34,758
This would be a perfect
in-law suite.

168
00:07:34,758 --> 00:07:36,000
He needs a place to put these.

169
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,379
These are not for show.

170
00:07:37,379 --> 00:07:40,793
He's literally the only person
I know who's like
a legit surfer.

171
00:07:40,793 --> 00:07:42,655
But it also needs
to be in an office.

172
00:07:42,655 --> 00:07:45,275
So I guess you'd have to get
a little creative, 'cause this
is a limited amount of space.

173
00:07:45,275 --> 00:07:46,758
But I'm not the geniuses
behind this.

174
00:07:46,758 --> 00:07:50,517
Ricky needs a place
where his in-laws
can stay comfortably.

175
00:07:50,517 --> 00:07:52,931
<i>But he also needs a place
where he can work,
have a bit of privacy</i>

176
00:07:52,931 --> 00:07:55,137
<i>and a bit of space
to just focus.</i>

177
00:07:55,137 --> 00:07:58,965
But that place should also
be a spot where he can kind
of let loose.

178
00:07:58,965 --> 00:08:00,068
It's a tall order.

179
00:08:00,068 --> 00:08:01,379
Are they cool?

180
00:08:01,379 --> 00:08:03,413
Is there any issue
in eliminating the door
altogether?

181
00:08:03,413 --> 00:08:04,758
I was just gonna ask that.

182
00:08:04,758 --> 00:08:06,551
I was like, "Can you actually
go out there?"

183
00:08:06,551 --> 00:08:09,517
Because the easement's
pretty significant.

184
00:08:09,517 --> 00:08:11,655
- You said we have three weeks?
- [Darren] Yeah.

185
00:08:11,655 --> 00:08:15,862
There is no way we can get
a development permit
to extend the garage.

186
00:08:15,862 --> 00:08:17,344
Not with that attitude, man.

187
00:08:17,344 --> 00:08:18,827
- [laughs]
- Yeah.

188
00:08:18,827 --> 00:08:22,379
No but we could close
off the garage door,

189
00:08:22,379 --> 00:08:25,172
still have a window,
so that you can have
some light coming in.

190
00:08:25,172 --> 00:08:26,689
Possibly vault the ceiling

191
00:08:26,689 --> 00:08:28,379
and just redo everything.

192
00:08:28,379 --> 00:08:30,551
A lot of people, especially
in California,

193
00:08:30,551 --> 00:08:32,689
they convert their garages
into an additional dwelling.

194
00:08:32,689 --> 00:08:34,103
- Right.
- So it has a full kitchen.

195
00:08:34,103 --> 00:08:38,896
But because you need more,
you need storage, office,
a bed type area.

196
00:08:38,896 --> 00:08:41,379
Maybe we shouldn't put
a full kitchen in here?

197
00:08:41,379 --> 00:08:42,896
- Yeah, it's like
a kitchenette.
- Yeah.

198
00:08:42,896 --> 00:08:44,793
Yeah, they're not just some
pretty faces on
the Canadian twins,

199
00:08:44,793 --> 00:08:46,862
they're some sharp guys

200
00:08:46,862 --> 00:08:48,482
I think we could like,
pass a bathroom.

201
00:08:48,482 --> 00:08:50,517
- We could get a permit--
- Would you like half bath?

202
00:08:50,517 --> 00:08:51,896
I think we can do a full bath.

203
00:08:51,896 --> 00:08:54,000
It makes me really glad that
they're at the helm
of this thing.

204
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,000
'Cause I know,
it's really gonna kick ass.

205
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,482
So there is a bit
of space behind here.

206
00:08:58,482 --> 00:09:01,655
He's done some gardening
in the past here, but right
now it's cleared out.

207
00:09:01,655 --> 00:09:04,068
- But this is totally game,
right here I mean--
- [Jonathan] Yeah.

208
00:09:04,068 --> 00:09:05,896
Okay this is like
the best part.

209
00:09:05,896 --> 00:09:08,931
- Because this is begging for
something to be done right--
- [Darren] Begging. Begging!

210
00:09:08,931 --> 00:09:11,413
When it comes to an
outdoor space, like,
do they like having...

211
00:09:11,413 --> 00:09:14,448
a fire pit, a hot tub,
like what kind of stuff
would you want?

212
00:09:14,448 --> 00:09:20,068
I mean if this was a hot tub
or a fire pit, that would
be so insanely cool.

213
00:09:20,068 --> 00:09:23,448
I would do a hot tub. I mean
this is such a cool, private,
intimate area.

214
00:09:23,448 --> 00:09:26,482
<i>How cool would it be for there
to be a hot tub
in the back area?</i>

215
00:09:26,482 --> 00:09:30,206
Finish all the
landscaping here,
so it ties together.

216
00:09:30,206 --> 00:09:32,068
Actually, you know
what you can even do,

217
00:09:32,068 --> 00:09:36,310
we could do, like this
massive, collapsible glass
wall on the back of this.

218
00:09:36,310 --> 00:09:37,620
[Darren] <i>To walk right
out into it.</i>

219
00:09:37,620 --> 00:09:39,275
[Jonathan] <i>Inside/outside
entertaining.</i>

220
00:09:39,275 --> 00:09:40,827
[exhales] That's amazing.

221
00:09:40,827 --> 00:09:44,068
Now I'm thinking about,
me just being able to come out
here and hang out.

222
00:09:44,068 --> 00:09:46,068
- That's, uh... So selfishly,
that's great.
- [Drew] Yeah.

223
00:09:46,068 --> 00:09:49,000
Leaning on the edge
of the hot tub
in your mankini.

224
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,068
Yes. It's like, "Get out
of my head, how do you know
my life?"

225
00:09:52,068 --> 00:09:53,413
[all laughing]

226
00:09:53,413 --> 00:09:55,896
The only thing that
does worry me is,

227
00:09:55,896 --> 00:09:58,482
if we do have to end up
redoing the roof

228
00:09:58,482 --> 00:10:01,137
and depending on the structure
of the garage, a lot of times

229
00:10:01,137 --> 00:10:02,965
we have to redo the footings
or underpin

230
00:10:02,965 --> 00:10:05,206
and that means we need
an engineer involved

231
00:10:05,206 --> 00:10:06,413
and there's a lot more to it.

232
00:10:06,413 --> 00:10:08,448
It is a lot to tackle
in only three weeks.

233
00:10:08,448 --> 00:10:10,758
I mean, I'm impressed
you guys even have
half the plan you do.

234
00:10:10,758 --> 00:10:15,172
I mean this is... this is all
way beyond my level
of expertise.

235
00:10:15,172 --> 00:10:18,413
[Jonathan] <i>Darren wants
to surprise Ricky
by blowing out his garage</i>

236
00:10:18,413 --> 00:10:22,620
<i>and turning it into
a multi-function office
meets in-law suite.</i>

237
00:10:22,620 --> 00:10:26,793
<i>Inside we'll add like swapping
that garage door with
a large window</i>

238
00:10:26,793 --> 00:10:29,793
<i>while adding openness
by vaulting the ceilings.</i>

239
00:10:29,793 --> 00:10:31,793
<i>To create more comfort
and sophistication</i>

240
00:10:31,793 --> 00:10:34,034
<i>we'll add medium toned
oak hardwood,</i>

241
00:10:34,034 --> 00:10:36,068
<i>a spa like three
piece bathroom</i>

242
00:10:36,068 --> 00:10:38,241
<i>and a kitchenette for coffee
and cocktails.</i>

243
00:10:38,241 --> 00:10:41,275
<i>Perfect for the in-laws
or for when Ricky
is working late.</i>

244
00:10:41,275 --> 00:10:45,172
<i>A couch for lounging
that pulls out into a bed
for guests.</i>

245
00:10:45,172 --> 00:10:49,137
<i>And a multi-tasking desk
or dining table will complete
the indoor space.</i>

246
00:10:49,137 --> 00:10:52,724
<i>While a collapsible glass
window wall opens to a serene
patio</i>

247
00:10:52,724 --> 00:10:55,137
<i>perfect for catching up
with friends and family.</i>

248
00:10:55,137 --> 00:10:58,586
<i>And a stunning new hot tub
ideal for winding down.</i>

249
00:10:58,586 --> 00:11:00,965
<i>But no backyard transformation
is complete</i>

250
00:11:00,965 --> 00:11:04,344
<i>without a state of the art
kitchen and an elegant
dining area.</i>

251
00:11:04,344 --> 00:11:09,241
<i>Perfect for Ricky and his
family to enjoy indoor-outdoor
living all year long.</i>

252
00:11:09,241 --> 00:11:11,827
Let's get a bunch of stuff out
of the garage. Let's start
clearing it out.

253
00:11:11,827 --> 00:11:14,275
I've always had my eye
on that garage

254
00:11:14,275 --> 00:11:16,034
<i>and it's kind of the way
it's set up,</i>

255
00:11:16,034 --> 00:11:20,275
<i>is almost screaming for a Drew
and Jonathan renovation.</i>

256
00:11:20,275 --> 00:11:22,689
I just never thought I'd be in
a position to where I can

257
00:11:22,689 --> 00:11:25,172
actually get them
to work on it.

258
00:11:25,172 --> 00:11:26,620
And here we are.

259
00:11:38,827 --> 00:11:40,413
[Jonathan] <i>With a tight
three week timeline</i>

260
00:11:40,413 --> 00:11:43,275
<i>it's time to dive and see
if Darren has the chops
for demolition.</i>

261
00:11:43,275 --> 00:11:44,965
<i>I mean yeah, he can sing
and he can act</i>

262
00:11:44,965 --> 00:11:48,068
but can he master
the choreography
of a contractor.

263
00:11:48,068 --> 00:11:49,310
[drilling]

264
00:11:51,517 --> 00:11:53,965
So what's the goal here?
Just trying to break
it all up?

265
00:11:53,965 --> 00:11:56,137
Never used
a jackhammer before.

266
00:11:56,137 --> 00:11:57,793
[drilling continues]

267
00:11:57,793 --> 00:11:59,896
<i>I look like
a total idiot doing that.</i>

268
00:11:59,896 --> 00:12:03,172
So you guys got that on camera
that's gonna be a gift
from me in the future.

269
00:12:06,620 --> 00:12:07,655
[Jonathan] Whoo!

270
00:12:07,655 --> 00:12:09,655
It's sort of stuck. [groans]

271
00:12:09,655 --> 00:12:11,655
- Don't go too deep.
- That's too deep, yeah.

272
00:12:11,655 --> 00:12:14,379
- I'm definitely gonna need
some strength to get it up.
- Give it one try.

273
00:12:15,137 --> 00:12:17,034
Yeah. It's-- it's, uh...

274
00:12:17,034 --> 00:12:18,344
No, that's not gonna happen.

275
00:12:18,344 --> 00:12:21,448
It's the same size as me
and I look like
a child trying to...

276
00:12:22,482 --> 00:12:23,896
you know,
shoot a basketball.

277
00:12:23,896 --> 00:12:26,137
Just can't do it.
It's not physically possible.

278
00:12:26,137 --> 00:12:27,862
- Please don't hurt your back.
- [drilling]

279
00:12:27,862 --> 00:12:29,965
Oh-ho-ho!

280
00:12:29,965 --> 00:12:32,620
- [Jonathan exhales]
- I head mechanical sounds,
that was assisted.

281
00:12:32,620 --> 00:12:36,206
Why don't you drag yours over
and do the sidewalks
next to Drew.

282
00:12:36,206 --> 00:12:38,310
Here's what I heard, "Can you
please get away from me,

283
00:12:38,310 --> 00:12:40,413
so I can do this way
more efficiently."

284
00:12:40,413 --> 00:12:42,827
[laughs] I didn't think you'd
be able to hear it
with your ear plugs in.

285
00:12:42,827 --> 00:12:45,344
These-- these are translator
ear plugs.

286
00:12:45,344 --> 00:12:50,000
I was delightfully
emasculated by my lack
of demo experience.

287
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,275
[hammering]

288
00:12:51,275 --> 00:12:53,379
[Jonathan] <i>But after the slow
start with the jackhammer,</i>

289
00:12:53,379 --> 00:12:58,068
Darren's lack of experience
was overshadowed
by raw power and passion.

290
00:12:58,068 --> 00:13:00,206
<i>He jumped right in,
he was ripping things apart.</i>

291
00:13:00,206 --> 00:13:03,724
<i>He even climbed up top
to get the demo that needed
to come down for the cabinets.</i>

292
00:13:03,724 --> 00:13:05,241
Well, guys.
This is for Ricky.

293
00:13:06,241 --> 00:13:07,551
[all cheering]

294
00:13:07,965 --> 00:13:09,344
[drilling]

295
00:13:09,344 --> 00:13:10,344
[hammering]

296
00:13:14,241 --> 00:13:17,620
[Darren] All right, boys.
Do you want a pre knocking
down the wall chord?

297
00:13:17,620 --> 00:13:19,344
- So, okay, alright.
- [vocalizing]

298
00:13:19,344 --> 00:13:20,551
All right.
Just give me a note. Go.

299
00:13:20,551 --> 00:13:22,275
[vocalizing in sync]

300
00:13:22,275 --> 00:13:24,241
Keep it there.
Stay there.

301
00:13:24,241 --> 00:13:27,103
Where I failed to look cool

302
00:13:27,103 --> 00:13:29,103
with my demolition skills.

303
00:13:29,103 --> 00:13:32,724
I tried to make up for with,
hopefully some kind
of musical stylings.

304
00:13:32,724 --> 00:13:34,068
[vocalizing continues]

305
00:13:36,620 --> 00:13:38,068
- Not really. Not really.
- All right.

306
00:13:38,068 --> 00:13:39,620
I'm way better
at construction.

307
00:13:39,620 --> 00:13:42,103
[Darren] <i>I was pleased to see
that they were as rough with</i>

308
00:13:42,103 --> 00:13:44,517
<i>the music as I was with
the demo.</i>

309
00:13:45,206 --> 00:13:47,689
So it kind of evened out.

310
00:13:47,689 --> 00:13:49,413
[vocalizing]

311
00:13:50,241 --> 00:13:51,896
- Bam!
- Oh this it.

312
00:13:51,896 --> 00:13:53,620
I'm glad I was part of it but
I think I need

313
00:13:53,620 --> 00:13:55,413
to practice and come
and show him we can do better.

314
00:13:55,413 --> 00:13:59,034
[vocalizing]

315
00:13:59,034 --> 00:13:59,965
We're getting better.

316
00:14:00,793 --> 00:14:01,862
[drilling]

317
00:14:09,689 --> 00:14:11,379
[Jonathan] All right.
Bring it down.

318
00:14:11,379 --> 00:14:13,000
[knocking]

319
00:14:21,310 --> 00:14:22,448
[Drew] One more.

320
00:14:22,448 --> 00:14:24,689
[cheering]

321
00:14:24,689 --> 00:14:27,689
- [Drew] Nice.
- [Jonathan] Guys,
you're messing with my sun.

322
00:14:27,689 --> 00:14:30,344
With that wall open
the indoor-outdoor flow
is gonna be amazing.

323
00:14:30,344 --> 00:14:33,689
Higher roofline as well.
Everything in the space
is coming together.

324
00:14:33,689 --> 00:14:36,517
You can pick that up and toss
it away since you've been
sitting there the whole time.

325
00:14:36,517 --> 00:14:37,827
We'll-- we'll take
our lunch break.

326
00:14:37,827 --> 00:14:40,000
- [Jonathan] Yeah.
- [Darren] Here,
I'll give you a...

327
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,931
- give you a thumbs up.
- Oh this is-- good work, guys.

328
00:14:42,931 --> 00:14:44,862
- [Darren] Good work, man.
Thumbs up.
- Thumbs up.

329
00:14:46,310 --> 00:14:48,827
[Jonathan] <i>Darren wants every
detail to be perfect
for Ricky,</i>

330
00:14:48,827 --> 00:14:52,137
<i>just to say thank you
for all his best friend
has done for him.</i>

331
00:14:52,137 --> 00:14:54,758
<i>And creating a flex space that
will allow him and his family</i>

332
00:14:54,758 --> 00:14:57,275
<i>to function better is exactly
the way to do it.</i>

333
00:15:09,379 --> 00:15:12,034
<i>We aren't just fixing
the roof, we're totally
redesigning it,</i>

334
00:15:12,034 --> 00:15:13,965
<i>because we want
it to be vaulted on
the inside which</i>

335
00:15:13,965 --> 00:15:16,000
<i>would really open up
the small space.</i>

336
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,827
Yeah but right now we can't
as the way it was originally designed

337
00:15:18,827 --> 00:15:21,172
<i>with the four sides coming
into a point on the interior.</i>

338
00:15:21,172 --> 00:15:23,758
<i>The collar ties, if we
remove those, the whole roof
would fall down.</i>

339
00:15:23,758 --> 00:15:25,758
Yes, so the only way
to really achieve the vault

340
00:15:25,758 --> 00:15:29,517
is to take it all down and to
replace it with a classic two
sized A frame design.

341
00:15:29,517 --> 00:15:31,586
I got this.
There you go.

342
00:15:31,586 --> 00:15:33,068
- That came up
a little too easy.
- Yeah.

343
00:15:33,068 --> 00:15:35,827
[Jonathan] So there's
the original roof structure.

344
00:15:35,827 --> 00:15:37,068
Right there.

345
00:15:37,068 --> 00:15:38,827
If we do have this open.

346
00:15:38,827 --> 00:15:41,586
If you wanna go down there
and pass me up a brewski?

347
00:15:41,586 --> 00:15:45,172
- A brewski?
Who calls it a brewski?
- I just said brewski.

348
00:15:45,172 --> 00:15:47,172
This is a little bit bouncy.
I'm a little--

349
00:15:47,172 --> 00:15:49,344
Well, let's like leave
the rest of the sheets
on until we get

350
00:15:49,344 --> 00:15:51,862
the rest of the singles done
here and then we'll start
pulling off the sheets.

351
00:15:58,758 --> 00:16:00,586
[Jonathan] <i>A vaulted ceiling
will add sophistication</i>

352
00:16:00,586 --> 00:16:02,586
<i>and make this flex space
feel bigger.</i>

353
00:16:02,586 --> 00:16:04,379
But when you add a new roof

354
00:16:04,379 --> 00:16:07,551
you have to have an engineer
look at the concrete footings
under the current structure

355
00:16:07,551 --> 00:16:09,310
<i>to make sure
that there's proper support.</i>

356
00:16:09,310 --> 00:16:12,586
I am hoping that we do not
need to add to or replace
anything here.

357
00:16:12,586 --> 00:16:14,379
Especially with our tight
three week timeline.

358
00:16:18,827 --> 00:16:22,586
<i>We're coming to the end
of week one and with the demo
almost completely done,</i>

359
00:16:22,586 --> 00:16:25,103
<i>we're beginning to reroute
the new plumbing
and electrical.</i>

360
00:16:25,103 --> 00:16:26,793
- [cell phone ringing]
- Hey.

361
00:16:26,793 --> 00:16:30,275
<i>I was offsite on another build
when Victoria called
with the engineer's verdict</i>

362
00:16:30,275 --> 00:16:31,379
<i>on the garage's footing.</i>

363
00:16:31,379 --> 00:16:33,931
[Victoria] <i>I have good news
and I have bad news.</i>

364
00:16:33,931 --> 00:16:38,965
I can tell by the size of your
grin that you have more
bad news than good news.

365
00:16:38,965 --> 00:16:40,965
<i>Okay, so good, what I'm gonna
tell your right now</i>

366
00:16:40,965 --> 00:16:42,896
<i>doesn't mean that
we need to stop work.</i>

367
00:16:42,896 --> 00:16:44,103
Okay.

368
00:16:44,103 --> 00:16:46,000
<i>Bad news...</i>

369
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:50,000
<i>is that when we dug out
and we started demoing
the front of the garage,</i>

370
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,827
<i>we've realized that there's
no footings at all there.</i>

371
00:16:53,827 --> 00:16:57,172
<i>So there's nothing to properly
support the A frame roof.</i>

372
00:16:57,172 --> 00:17:00,551
<i>The engineer's telling us,
we have to dig a certain
size footing.</i>

373
00:17:00,551 --> 00:17:02,724
<i>So it's definitely
gonna add to the work.</i>

374
00:17:02,724 --> 00:17:05,000
[Jonathan] <i>Though
it isn't surprising,
it's still not ideal.</i>

375
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,034
I was just hoping we would
get lucky with this one.

376
00:17:07,034 --> 00:17:09,275
It just means we'll have to
add more crew

377
00:17:09,275 --> 00:17:11,517
and longer days to keep
our three week schedule.

378
00:17:11,517 --> 00:17:13,448
But we've done it before
and we'll make it work.

379
00:17:19,310 --> 00:17:20,275
- Hey! Whoa!
- Yes!

380
00:17:20,275 --> 00:17:22,586
I am so psyched
that you guys are here.

381
00:17:22,586 --> 00:17:25,172
[Jonathan] <i>Darren Criss
is giving back
to his best friend Ricky.</i>

382
00:17:25,172 --> 00:17:27,655
<i>The guy he credits
with helping him launch
his career.</i>

383
00:17:27,655 --> 00:17:30,620
He's literally one of the best
things that ever happened
to me. It's crazy.

384
00:17:30,620 --> 00:17:32,620
[Jonathan] <i>By turning
his detached garage...</i>

385
00:17:32,620 --> 00:17:34,103
- This is it!
- This is untouched.

386

- [Jonathan] <i>In to an office.

He is truly one

391
00:17:44,517 --> 00:17:45,482
I love you, Ricky.

394
00:17:55,586 --> 00:17:58,448

to reinforce the garage</i>

<i>by underpinning to support
the new A frame roof.</i>

396
00:18:00,931 --> 00:18:04,379
<i>That means, that we need

397
00:18:04,379 --> 00:18:06,137
<i>So while the crew digs

399
00:18:07,896 --> 00:18:11,517
we wanna multi task
and get Darren's choices
for the design finishes.

400
00:18:11,517 --> 00:18:13,793
I love designing, Ricky and I
share a mutual love for design

401
00:18:13,793 --> 00:18:16,275
when we travel,
when we see places.

402
00:18:16,275 --> 00:18:18,655
Of all the things that people
could look at on their phones,

403
00:18:18,655 --> 00:18:21,068
on certain apps
in the wee hours of the night.

404
00:18:21,068 --> 00:18:22,724
- You guys are swiping
right or left?
- We're looking--

405
00:18:22,724 --> 00:18:24,689
- We're looking
at these things.
- Exactly.

406
00:18:24,689 --> 00:18:27,000
This is gonna be a flex space,
so we're setting it up.

407
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,689
- So they've got options.
- You could whatever you want.

408
00:18:28,689 --> 00:18:32,517
But he is getting a full bath,
so there will be a shower,
toilet, sink.

409
00:18:32,517 --> 00:18:34,896
- Mini kitchen.
In the kitchen...
- This is killer.

410
00:18:34,896 --> 00:18:37,724
...I'm thinking of using
sintered stone
for the counter.

411
00:18:37,724 --> 00:18:40,344
It will look like actual
marble when it's done.

412
00:18:40,344 --> 00:18:41,931
- Oh, yeah, wow.
- But it's

413
00:18:41,931 --> 00:18:44,862
totally impervious.
But I wanted to go light.

414
00:18:44,862 --> 00:18:46,344
You were saying...

415
00:18:46,344 --> 00:18:48,655
you know, you wanted
to have that kind of like
a Malibu vibe for him.

416
00:18:48,655 --> 00:18:51,137
Yeah, he's a beach guy
you know, like...

417
00:18:51,137 --> 00:18:54,689
- Beach house vibes think
is just exactly up his alley.
- Well then--

418
00:18:54,689 --> 00:18:57,551
Even with the flooring,
if we go nice and light
with the flooring.

419
00:18:57,551 --> 00:18:59,551
This is engineered hardwood,
it's very durable

420
00:18:59,551 --> 00:19:01,620
but it will also look
so clean and inviting.

421
00:19:01,620 --> 00:19:04,689
Dude, the motif
that you're kind
of painting here...

422
00:19:04,689 --> 00:19:06,551
like this gold-- the brass

423
00:19:06,551 --> 00:19:09,793
finish which I know is very
much a thing right now.
It's something that he loves.

424
00:19:09,793 --> 00:19:12,034
When you pull these
tones together.

425
00:19:12,034 --> 00:19:16,103
- Look how beautiful those are.
- Yeah, it's classy and it's--
yeah, it's so nice.

426
00:19:16,103 --> 00:19:18,137
One question I wanted to ask,
for the yard.

427
00:19:18,137 --> 00:19:21,758
I wanted to go grand
with all of our pavers
throughout the yard.

428
00:19:21,758 --> 00:19:23,620
So, I was thinking this scale

429
00:19:23,620 --> 00:19:26,551
and then we can have the grass
between all of the pavers

430
00:19:26,551 --> 00:19:28,551
- like the artificial turf.
- Yeah, that makes it all--

431
00:19:28,551 --> 00:19:31,206
Totally durable,
zero maintenance too,
which is nice.

432
00:19:31,206 --> 00:19:33,034
- Even--
- What do I know?
I'm an actor.

433
00:19:33,758 --> 00:19:35,379
- Act like you know.
- Yes.

434
00:19:35,379 --> 00:19:39,379
Convince me that you're
a world class designer

435
00:19:39,379 --> 00:19:41,448
and you know
what direction we should go.

436
00:19:42,137 --> 00:19:43,379
Jonathan...

437
00:19:44,206 --> 00:19:45,758
this stone.

438
00:19:45,758 --> 00:19:47,068
You gotta use it.

439
00:19:47,068 --> 00:19:49,517
See that is what the pros do

440
00:19:49,517 --> 00:19:51,241
- before they edit it.
- You moved me.

441
00:19:51,241 --> 00:19:54,931
Or if this was a musical...
<i>♪ You gotta use this stone ♪</i>

442
00:19:54,931 --> 00:19:58,241
<i>♪ Yeah, you gotta
Use that fixture ♪</i>

443
00:19:58,241 --> 00:20:02,241
<i>♪ You gotta get yourself
A countertop
With some white finishes ♪</i>

444
00:20:02,241 --> 00:20:05,034
<i>♪ And if you're lucky
Have some brass ♪</i>

445
00:20:05,034 --> 00:20:07,275
Not only can he like pick
finishes like a pro

446
00:20:07,275 --> 00:20:10,172
but he also gave me some
acting and music lessons
while doing it.

447
00:20:10,172 --> 00:20:12,068
Is there anything
this man can't do?

448
00:20:12,068 --> 00:20:15,517
I think if Ricky were here,
he would be so,
so excited by all of these.

449
00:20:15,517 --> 00:20:17,758
I feel just super at ease with
their ideas,

450
00:20:17,758 --> 00:20:19,965
I think they have great taste,
they know what they're doing.

451
00:20:19,965 --> 00:20:22,172
I've been swiping right
on all of it.
This is all great.

452
00:20:22,172 --> 00:20:24,034
- Is right the good one?
- I don't know actually.

453
00:20:24,034 --> 00:20:25,689
I'm the worst at this.

454
00:20:25,689 --> 00:20:28,517
I'm out of the game.
I've no idea what's
the correct nomenclature.

455
00:20:28,517 --> 00:20:30,000
We're so lame
but that's okay.

456
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,034
I've seen the plans,
I've seen the materials

457
00:20:33,034 --> 00:20:34,689
and it's working.

458
00:20:34,689 --> 00:20:37,275
[Jonathan] <i>Thanks to the
entire crew working overtime,</i>

459
00:20:37,275 --> 00:20:39,862
<i>the brand new footings
and electrical are in</i>

460
00:20:39,862 --> 00:20:41,586
<i>just in time for concrete.</i>

461
00:20:41,586 --> 00:20:43,241
<i>First we'll fill the trenches.</i>

462
00:20:43,241 --> 00:20:44,379
<i>Then finish the slab.</i>

463
00:20:50,724 --> 00:20:54,689
<i>With the concrete cured,
Darren's back as we turn
our attention to the framing.</i>

464
00:20:54,689 --> 00:20:57,724
I will measure,
you guys tack this in.

465
00:20:57,724 --> 00:21:01,068
[Jonathan] <i>We're giving
Ricky's family an entirely
new house basically.</i>

466
00:21:01,068 --> 00:21:03,379
<i>It's gonna be a place where
the in-laws can stay</i>

467
00:21:03,379 --> 00:21:06,931
<i>or where Ricky can get some
work done
without distractions.</i>

468
00:21:06,931 --> 00:21:10,172
<i>♪ 'Cause I'm a man

469
00:21:10,172 --> 00:21:13,034
[Jonathan] <i>I feel like
every time Darren come's back
to help us,</i>

470
00:21:13,034 --> 00:21:15,793
he's getting a little bit more comfortable,
little bit more confident.

471
00:21:15,793 --> 00:21:19,241
Now he's framing, nailing,
we're putting in windows,
building walls.

472
00:21:19,241 --> 00:21:20,586
I did it.

473
00:21:20,586 --> 00:21:23,000
- He's done a great job.
- He's basically one
of the brothers.

474
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,655
This is the right size
of a window

475
00:21:26,655 --> 00:21:29,931
where if Ricky has a bad day

476
00:21:29,931 --> 00:21:33,586
with some, I don't know agent
or producer,
he can just like...

477
00:21:33,586 --> 00:21:35,827
throw them out of the window
in a dramatic fashion.

478
00:21:35,827 --> 00:21:37,655
Or on like a rainy LA day,

479
00:21:37,655 --> 00:21:40,310
- he can just
stand dramatically.
- Yeah, stand very sad.

480
00:21:40,310 --> 00:21:41,793
Yeah, there's so many options.

481
00:21:41,793 --> 00:21:43,275
[Jonathan] Do you guys
wanna start

482
00:21:43,275 --> 00:21:45,034
framing up for the bathroom,
Chris will give
you a hand over there.

483
00:21:45,034 --> 00:21:46,758
As soon as I'm done with this,
I'll come join you.

484
00:21:46,758 --> 00:21:48,448
<i>Even though this wasn't
a huge space,</i>

485
00:21:48,448 --> 00:21:51,344
<i>we were able to squeeze
in a full three
piece bathroom.</i>

486
00:21:51,344 --> 00:21:53,137
[Drew] Hey, Chris,
can you bring the level in?

487
00:21:53,137 --> 00:21:55,551
<i>Yeah because when your
in-laws are staying
at a detached space</i>

488
00:21:55,551 --> 00:21:59,172
you don't wanna be woken up in
the main house at midnight
when someone has to go.

489
00:21:59,172 --> 00:22:02,068
What's our timeline
for the rest of the structure?

490
00:22:02,068 --> 00:22:04,172
Once these interior walls
go in

491
00:22:04,172 --> 00:22:07,000
we will set out ridge beam

492
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,586
here from end to end
and then roll rafters
and sheath it.

493
00:22:10,586 --> 00:22:14,068
Chris, do you wanna give him
the gun there and he can
hammer down the concrete now?

494
00:22:14,068 --> 00:22:18,310
[Jonathan] <i>The dude is so
talented, now he can even add
framer to his resume.</i>

495
00:22:18,310 --> 00:22:20,689
- Sweet! Like a rock!
- Look at that.

496
00:22:20,689 --> 00:22:23,344
[Drew] <i>You know when
I was acting, I actually put
everything on my resume.</i>

497
00:22:23,344 --> 00:22:26,344
I think on Darren's resume,
he'll probably say,
"licensed contractor."

498
00:22:26,344 --> 00:22:28,068
What was it Russian accent
that you could do?

499
00:22:28,068 --> 00:22:29,379
[in Russian]
<i>Da.</i>

500
00:22:29,379 --> 00:22:30,689
[chuckles]

501
00:22:40,344 --> 00:22:42,000
[Jonathan] <i>With just over
a week to go,</i>

502
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,620
<i>we're well on our way
to turning Ricky's garage</i>

503
00:22:43,620 --> 00:22:47,413
from storage spot into
stunning flexible space
for Ricky and his family.

504
00:22:47,413 --> 00:22:50,241
From hosting the in-laws
to late night conference calls

505
00:22:50,241 --> 00:22:52,241
<i>this garage
will soon do it all.</i>

506
00:22:52,241 --> 00:22:54,724
<i>Up top, the crews finishing
the new A frame roof.</i>

507
00:22:54,724 --> 00:22:55,793
<i>While down below...</i>

508
00:22:55,793 --> 00:22:57,965
[Jonathan] Have you seen
this kind of door before?

509
00:22:57,965 --> 00:22:59,965
Yeah I have.
These sorts are so,
so nice, man.

510
00:22:59,965 --> 00:23:02,724
Darren's back and we're giving
him a lesson
on our kind of accordion.

511
00:23:02,724 --> 00:23:04,413
Yeah. The accordion door.

512
00:23:04,413 --> 00:23:07,517
Open it a little bit more,
I need it perfectly perpendicular.

513
00:23:07,517 --> 00:23:09,310
- I need to pull
the bottom out. One sec.
- Right there?

514
00:23:10,103 --> 00:23:11,379
[Jonathan] Oh, there.

515
00:23:11,379 --> 00:23:13,344
When you think about what
this garage was before.

516
00:23:13,344 --> 00:23:16,517
The fact that we have
this amazing accordion door,

517
00:23:16,517 --> 00:23:20,931
this massive window and a
hot tub, this is mind blowing.
His mind's gonna implode.

518
00:23:20,931 --> 00:23:23,689
I don't think Darren realized
how open things would be from

519
00:23:23,689 --> 00:23:26,620
inside the garage
to outside where
the hot tub is.

520
00:23:26,620 --> 00:23:28,275
[Darren] Get out of here.

521
00:23:28,275 --> 00:23:30,655
[Drew] It's a beautiful
flow when you collapse
that wall open.

522
00:23:30,655 --> 00:23:32,517
If it's blowing my mind,

523
00:23:32,517 --> 00:23:33,724
like how...

524
00:23:33,724 --> 00:23:35,482
is Ricky gonna react?

525
00:23:35,482 --> 00:23:36,896
- Yeah.
- You know?

526
00:23:36,896 --> 00:23:38,206
[whirring]

527
00:23:56,965 --> 00:24:00,586
[Jonathan] <i>With the roof done,
our LA crew is turning their
attention to the inside.</i>

528
00:24:00,586 --> 00:24:03,413
<i>The electricians are running
lines for our recessed lights,</i>

529
00:24:03,413 --> 00:24:05,482
<i>while the plumbing lines
are being added
to accommodate</i>

530
00:24:05,482 --> 00:24:07,586
<i>the three piece bathroom
and kitchenette.</i>

531
00:24:07,586 --> 00:24:10,275
<i>Meanwhile, I'm seeing
a man about some turf.</i>

532
00:24:10,275 --> 00:24:11,344
You are organized.

533
00:24:11,344 --> 00:24:12,758
So I'm thinking,

534
00:24:12,758 --> 00:24:15,689
for this project obviously,
you know we're doing

535
00:24:15,689 --> 00:24:17,310
um, a big grass area,

536
00:24:17,310 --> 00:24:20,068
we've got some pavers
going in we're gonna wanna
go between them.

537
00:24:20,068 --> 00:24:22,448
- Sure.
- So, you know there's gonna be
a lot of people going back

538
00:24:22,448 --> 00:24:26,310
and forth and I wouldn't wanna
have something
that wears too quickly.

539
00:24:26,310 --> 00:24:29,241
We wanna get just the right
artificial turf for this yard

540
00:24:29,241 --> 00:24:30,758
because we want zero maintenance

541
00:24:30,758 --> 00:24:32,241
but we want something
that's gonna be beautiful.

542
00:24:32,241 --> 00:24:34,827
These are two inch products
with a really strong yarn.

543
00:24:34,827 --> 00:24:37,068
These ones are
a little bit taller, right?

544
00:24:37,068 --> 00:24:39,965
So, I think they wouldn't
hold up as well
to the traffic.

545
00:24:39,965 --> 00:24:42,551
You know, the two inch product
is probably
the most effective.

546
00:24:42,551 --> 00:24:44,620
I actually picked the same
grass you used at your house.

547
00:24:44,620 --> 00:24:46,034
I think that's a good choice.

548
00:24:46,034 --> 00:24:47,655
'Cause I would pick
nothing less than the best.

549
00:24:47,655 --> 00:24:49,448
So, let's do it.
Next time I see you,

550
00:24:49,448 --> 00:24:51,000
you're gonna have a massive
roll that you'll

551
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,482
probably need some
help getting it off the truck.

552
00:24:52,482 --> 00:24:54,965
- Yeah, we're gonna
need a hand.
- Thank you.

553
00:24:54,965 --> 00:24:56,896
[Jonathan] <i>Turf is picked
and plumbing is done</i>

554
00:24:56,896 --> 00:24:59,896
<i>which means we can add our
energy efficient picture
window in the front</i>

555
00:24:59,896 --> 00:25:01,827
<i>so we can close up
the space tomorrow.</i>

556
00:25:01,827 --> 00:25:04,965
And that is huge
because Ricky is back
in just over a week.

557
00:25:16,931 --> 00:25:18,482
[Jonathan] <i>While the crew
close up the space,</i>

558
00:25:18,482 --> 00:25:21,793
<i>Drew and I are headed to find
the crown jewel
for this backyard.</i>

559
00:25:21,793 --> 00:25:23,551
[together]
The hot tub.

560
00:25:23,551 --> 00:25:26,482
Did you know where hot tubs
actually came from?

561
00:25:26,482 --> 00:25:27,655
I've no idea.

562
00:25:27,655 --> 00:25:30,172
So it was
the Jacuzzi brothers.

563
00:25:30,172 --> 00:25:33,068
They were actually doing
military contrasts
creating propellers.

564
00:25:33,068 --> 00:25:36,482
But then one of the brother's
son had
rheumatoid arthritis,

565
00:25:36,482 --> 00:25:40,344
and so they decided to create
a propellor in a tub

566
00:25:40,344 --> 00:25:42,344
to help with hydrotherapy.
That was in the 50's.

567
00:25:43,034 --> 00:25:44,862
- Jacuzzi brothers?
- Yeah.

568
00:25:44,862 --> 00:25:47,620
- You're so full of it.
- I'm not full of it.
That's exactly it.

569
00:25:50,586 --> 00:25:53,275
[Jonathan] Ho-ho-ho.
Let the party begin.

570
00:25:53,275 --> 00:25:55,137
[Drew] <i>It's already feeling
like summer.</i>

571
00:25:55,137 --> 00:25:56,965
[Jonathan]
<i>These are beautiful.</i>

572
00:25:56,965 --> 00:25:59,517
- [Victoria] Yeah?
- [Drew] So, first question is.

573
00:25:59,517 --> 00:26:02,931
How much space do we have
to work with?
Because these look massive.

574
00:26:02,931 --> 00:26:05,241
I initially thought this size.

575
00:26:05,241 --> 00:26:07,689
But then we drew up
some options.

576
00:26:07,689 --> 00:26:09,275
- We can go bigger.
- Wait, how much does this

577
00:26:09,275 --> 00:26:10,931
leave, if we have
it like this?

578
00:26:10,931 --> 00:26:14,172
- What's our clearance
that we have here?
- Here we have 36 inches.

579
00:26:14,172 --> 00:26:15,517
[Jonathan] <i>If we remove
the stairs.</i>

580
00:26:15,517 --> 00:26:17,586
- Yes. So we can do something
like this.
- [Jonathan] Okay.

581
00:26:17,586 --> 00:26:19,551
[Victoria] And just to have
buildup, upfront.

582
00:26:19,551 --> 00:26:23,758
I've never been so excited
or thought I'd be so excited
about a hot tub.

583
00:26:23,758 --> 00:26:26,206
So look at this.
These all come off.

584
00:26:26,206 --> 00:26:29,206
There's 18 different jet packs
that you can pick from.

585
00:26:29,206 --> 00:26:32,034
So there can be like
a lighter massage,

586
00:26:32,034 --> 00:26:33,931
- you can have the
water fall on your back.
- Okay.

587
00:26:33,931 --> 00:26:35,931
- Hold on. I'm getting in.
- Oh, gosh.

588
00:26:35,931 --> 00:26:38,517
It's important to get into
the feel of the tub.

589
00:26:38,517 --> 00:26:40,655
- This is really nice.
- I love this one.

590
00:26:40,655 --> 00:26:41,896
I know it's big.

591
00:26:41,896 --> 00:26:43,448
Oh, I can hardly tell
that you love it.

592
00:26:43,448 --> 00:26:45,586
- I just feel it's so cool.
- I've literally never seen you
this excited.

593
00:26:45,586 --> 00:26:48,275
I know, I never thought
I'd be this excited and also

594
00:26:48,275 --> 00:26:50,448
all this is customizable so,

595
00:26:50,448 --> 00:26:53,344
because it's gonna be exposed
on this one side,

596
00:26:53,344 --> 00:26:56,172
we can kinda pick any
of these nice wood options.

597
00:26:56,172 --> 00:27:00,724
I was kinda thinking maybe
one of these two?

598
00:27:00,724 --> 00:27:02,482
- Yeah the wood tones,
those are nice.
- Yeah.

599
00:27:02,482 --> 00:27:05,413
And then I assume
you can configure it,
you got the lighting--

600
00:27:05,413 --> 00:27:09,241
Okay well, this is another
thing that I'm pretty
pumped about.

601
00:27:10,379 --> 00:27:11,241
[music playing]

602
00:27:11,241 --> 00:27:12,758
Oh. Oh.

603
00:27:12,758 --> 00:27:15,172
- That's why-- that's why--
- Oh, whoa!

604
00:27:15,172 --> 00:27:17,655
Drew can actually--
he can go viral.

605
00:27:17,655 --> 00:27:19,241
I'm gonna do the robot.

606
00:27:20,931 --> 00:27:22,827
That looks--
that's not bad.

607
00:27:22,827 --> 00:27:27,000
Um, let-- let me change
this before you guys
embarrass yourselves.

608
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,172
Aside from the terrible dance
moves that takes me back
to my 20's.

609
00:27:30,172 --> 00:27:33,413
- Yeah.
- Uh, I would say that
we should do a lighter

610
00:27:33,413 --> 00:27:35,172
- interior for the acrylic.
- Yes. I agree.

611
00:27:35,172 --> 00:27:39,413
Okay so I'm gonna order
this one pretty much but with
this outer shell.

612
00:27:39,413 --> 00:27:40,413
- Cool.
- Awesome.

613
00:27:40,413 --> 00:27:44,137
I think in order to make
a well-rounded decision,

614
00:27:44,137 --> 00:27:46,620
- Drew should test
every single one.
- Okay.

615
00:27:46,620 --> 00:27:48,068
Uh, I'll go get my mankini.

616
00:27:48,068 --> 00:27:48,965
[laughing]

617
00:27:54,827 --> 00:27:56,655
[Jonathan] <i>Finishes are
the name of the game today.</i>

618
00:27:56,655 --> 00:27:58,344
<i>And first up is flooring.</i>

619
00:27:58,344 --> 00:28:00,620
<i>The crew is adding a light
engineered hardwood</i>

620
00:28:00,620 --> 00:28:02,896
<i>which will add brightness
and sophistication</i>

621
00:28:02,896 --> 00:28:07,000
<i>and also a little bit of that
coastal vibe that I know
the surfer in Ricky loves.</i>

622
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,379
<i>And while the new shower
is prepped for tiling,</i>

623
00:28:09,379 --> 00:28:12,689
<i>Drew and I are making sure
that the back patio has
privacy and cohesion.</i>

624
00:28:12,689 --> 00:28:14,206
The most important part

625
00:28:14,206 --> 00:28:15,862
is what Drew's doing
down there.

626
00:28:15,862 --> 00:28:18,034
If he screws up on that end,
it screws everything up.

627
00:28:18,034 --> 00:28:19,551
Yeah, that's pretty much it.

628
00:28:19,551 --> 00:28:22,034
We can just put all the blame
on Drew if he gets
it wrong at the start.

629
00:28:22,034 --> 00:28:24,344
[Jonathan] <i>The fence line
in this yard before,
it was terrible.</i>

630
00:28:24,344 --> 00:28:26,344
They had a chain link,
they had a pink fence,

631
00:28:26,344 --> 00:28:28,793
they had purple, they had
grey, they had everything
you can imagine

632
00:28:28,793 --> 00:28:30,379
<i>and none of it looked good.</i>

633
00:28:30,379 --> 00:28:34,620
<i>Now this beautiful, horizontal
clean line fence going
all the way around</i>

634
00:28:34,620 --> 00:28:38,000
is gonna give them privacy
and style but it will also
be great for the whole family.

635
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,482
This is extremely low
maintenance as well,

636
00:28:39,482 --> 00:28:41,379
it's actually, uh,
decking timber so...

637
00:28:41,379 --> 00:28:44,344
Don't ever have to stain
it or sand it. It'll just be
beautiful--

638
00:28:44,344 --> 00:28:47,103
It sounds a lot cooler when
you say it than when
Jonathan says it.

639
00:28:47,103 --> 00:28:50,551
I think this is gonna blow
Ricky away,
he's gonna absolutely love it.

640
00:28:50,551 --> 00:28:53,827
[Jonathan] <i>Yeah, I can
actually picture Ricky,
standing inside his office</i>

641
00:28:53,827 --> 00:28:56,586
<i>looking out to the yard,
seeing all the fun that
the family's having</i>

642
00:28:56,586 --> 00:28:59,862
and then saying, "You know
what, I'll book something
another time for Darren.

643
00:28:59,862 --> 00:29:01,586
I'm gonna go outside
and have fun with them too."

644
00:29:15,793 --> 00:29:18,068
This is where it [bleep]
gets actually real.

645
00:29:18,068 --> 00:29:21,172
I think the only thing cooler
than what you guys have done.

646
00:29:21,172 --> 00:29:23,241
- Is the reaction we're about
to get from Ricky.
- Oh, yeah.

647
00:29:23,241 --> 00:29:26,068
- I'm up for it.
- Just wait for it, I hope you
got your diaper on.

648
00:29:26,068 --> 00:29:28,379
What?

649
00:29:28,379 --> 00:29:30,655
- [Darren] <i>Look how cool
it is in here.
- [Ricky] Oh, my God.</i>

650
00:29:36,206 --> 00:29:39,379
[Jonathan] <i>It's the rush
to the finish line. There's
still a lot to be done.</i>

651
00:29:39,379 --> 00:29:41,689
<i>We're leveling and grading
the entire backyard</i>

652
00:29:41,689 --> 00:29:43,275
<i>and the oversized pavers</i>

653
00:29:43,275 --> 00:29:46,551
<i>are being installed to give
Ricky and his family
a luxurious oasis,</i>

654
00:29:46,551 --> 00:29:49,034
<i>and to connect the main house
to the new garage space.</i>

655
00:29:51,448 --> 00:29:53,724
<i>The kitchen cabinetry
is arriving while Drew and I</i>

656
00:29:53,724 --> 00:29:56,000
<i>are adding the light tile
to the bathroom,</i>

657
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,758
<i>to elevate the coastal theme.</i>

658
00:29:57,758 --> 00:29:59,689
This will be perfect, having
the shower in here

659
00:29:59,689 --> 00:30:01,827
for guests when family
and friends are in town.

660
00:30:01,827 --> 00:30:04,379
You gotta have a little bit
of separation.

661
00:30:04,379 --> 00:30:06,724
You want them close
but not too close.

662
00:30:06,724 --> 00:30:09,517
Is it insulting to say that
you don't want to be too close
to your family?

663
00:30:09,517 --> 00:30:13,620
No. It's a respect thing for
them. You're giving them
more space to feel at home.

664
00:30:13,620 --> 00:30:16,862
You never were offended when
Mom and Dad said they didn't
want you there at all, right?

665
00:30:16,862 --> 00:30:19,689
No but, I hope you noticed,
I always got the better room.

666
00:30:19,689 --> 00:30:21,310
[Jonathan laughs]
<i>Why did you get
the better room?</i>

667
00:30:21,310 --> 00:30:23,172
- You got the fold out.
- I'm older.

668
00:30:23,172 --> 00:30:27,689
It was supposed to be,
the older son gets first pick.

669
00:30:27,689 --> 00:30:29,724
- [Drew chuckles]
- And I never got first pick.

670
00:30:29,724 --> 00:30:32,344
Well, I think it just shows
who their favorite is.

671
00:30:32,344 --> 00:30:34,310
[Jonathan] <i>These are beautiful
artisanal tiles.</i>

672
00:30:34,310 --> 00:30:35,965
<i>They're gonna add
a sense of style.</i>

673
00:30:35,965 --> 00:30:40,137
But knowing that Ricky really
wants to have that kind
of a beachy coastal vibe,

674
00:30:40,137 --> 00:30:42,034
this will be nice and clean

675
00:30:42,034 --> 00:30:43,793
<i>and it will be something
the guests will love too.</i>

676
00:30:43,793 --> 00:30:45,137
These are all handmade.

677
00:30:45,137 --> 00:30:48,517
- And you can tell too,
I love that imperfect finish.
- Yeah.

678
00:30:48,517 --> 00:30:50,827
It's a heck of lot better
than what was in here before.

679
00:30:56,862 --> 00:31:00,379
[Jonathan] <i>While the pavers
and stucco get completed
on the outside,</i>

680
00:31:00,379 --> 00:31:02,655
<i>it's time to install on
the kitchen in the inside.</i>

681
00:31:02,655 --> 00:31:04,655
Oh, my gosh.
This thing is solid.

682
00:31:04,655 --> 00:31:08,068
<i>When you thing
of how important a storage
is in a house</i>

683
00:31:08,068 --> 00:31:10,206
well it's even more important
in a space like this

684
00:31:10,206 --> 00:31:12,448
because we don't have
a lot of room to work with.

685
00:31:12,448 --> 00:31:15,137
So these custom cabinets
are taking up every
square inch.

686
00:31:17,482 --> 00:31:19,482
[Drew] <i>All the old shelves,
they were so rickety,
you feel like</i>

687
00:31:19,482 --> 00:31:21,655
you would blow on them
and they'd fall over.

688
00:31:21,655 --> 00:31:24,724
These new cabinets,
they are solid.
Like a rock.

689
00:31:24,724 --> 00:31:27,896
I honestly don't think Ricky
will even go back
into the main house.

690
00:31:27,896 --> 00:31:30,310
He'll have coffee out here,

691
00:31:30,310 --> 00:31:32,413
drinks, food,
everything he needs.

692
00:31:32,413 --> 00:31:34,586
No, it's not gonna feel
at all like a garage anymore.

693
00:31:35,896 --> 00:31:37,137
I love these doors.

694
00:31:37,137 --> 00:31:39,241
<i>Darren loves Ricky and wants
a space to celebrate</i>

695
00:31:39,241 --> 00:31:41,448
<i>their successes
and their friendship.</i>

696
00:31:41,448 --> 00:31:43,103
Yeah, there's nothing
Darren wouldn't for him.

697
00:31:43,103 --> 00:31:45,413
And this one of a kind
renovation shows,

698
00:31:45,413 --> 00:31:47,413
<i>Darren wants to go big
to say thank you.</i>

699
00:31:53,827 --> 00:31:55,793
[Jonathan] <i>It would be
a mistake to give Ricky</i>

700
00:31:55,793 --> 00:31:57,793
<i>and his family this
beautiful outdoor space</i>

701
00:31:57,793 --> 00:32:00,275
<i>that looks upon
this dated pink paint.</i>

702
00:32:00,275 --> 00:32:03,482
<i>So today we're painting
the main house
to match the new garage</i>

703
00:32:03,482 --> 00:32:06,000
<i>and give the whole property
a cohesive feel.</i>

704
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,862
<i>The back patio hot tub
has arrived</i>

705
00:32:07,862 --> 00:32:11,275
<i>which I'm sure will
be a favorite feature
for Ricky and his family.</i>

706
00:32:11,275 --> 00:32:14,206
<i>Rivaled only by a showpiece
outdoor kitchen.</i>

707
00:32:14,206 --> 00:32:15,551
[Jonathan] <i>How's that look?</i>

708
00:32:15,551 --> 00:32:17,827
I mean to be honest,
I feel like that's
a lot of wasted space.

709
00:32:17,827 --> 00:32:19,689
Well I'm gonna fill that
though with shrubs and tree--

710
00:32:19,689 --> 00:32:21,620
like we're gonna have
greenery back there.

711
00:32:21,620 --> 00:32:23,931
But it's still very deep,
I mean, I think if we
did move back

712
00:32:23,931 --> 00:32:25,965
six inches we'd still have
a ton of space.

713
00:32:25,965 --> 00:32:27,172
Yeah, I think you're right.

714
00:32:27,172 --> 00:32:30,448
So let's shift it back
just four inches.

715
00:32:30,448 --> 00:32:31,517
[grunts] One. Two. Three.

716
00:32:33,068 --> 00:32:35,862
I mean I do think
that looks cleaner.
If that was grass.

717
00:32:35,862 --> 00:32:37,965
I think the way it is,
it's going to look
nice like that.

718
00:32:37,965 --> 00:32:39,689
- [Drew] Yeah.
- [Jonathan] Yeah.

719
00:32:39,689 --> 00:32:42,344
All right sounds good,
but I also see that leaning
forward a bit

720
00:32:42,344 --> 00:32:44,689
so there's a bit more leveling
and compacting we have
to do it anyway.

721
00:32:44,689 --> 00:32:47,206
Well, I wasn't done.
You stopped me halfway
through my job.

722
00:32:47,206 --> 00:32:49,103
Everybody I know in LA
is always saying,

723
00:32:49,103 --> 00:32:51,344
"I wanna turn my garage
in to a usable space."

724
00:32:51,344 --> 00:32:54,172
And it's because...
like here in LA,

725
00:32:54,172 --> 00:32:59,034
<i>square footage is at a premium
and now we've almost doubled
this family's home.</i>

726
00:32:59,034 --> 00:33:03,689
<i>We've incorporated every
design detail Darren said he
wanted for Ricky's flex space.</i>

727
00:33:03,689 --> 00:33:06,068
<i>From the kitchenette
to the spa like bathroom</i>

728
00:33:06,068 --> 00:33:09,103
<i>and every landscaping detail.</i>

729
00:33:09,103 --> 00:33:11,896
<i>We've turned this neglected
space into
a five star retreat.</i>

730
00:33:17,413 --> 00:33:19,448
[Jonathan] Isn't it amazing
how quickly things
come together?

731
00:33:19,448 --> 00:33:22,586
[Darren] This is where it
[bleep] gets actually real.

732
00:33:22,586 --> 00:33:24,000
[Jonathan] Oh, look at this!

733
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:27,724
- Oh, man. It's not real until
you have the surfboard up.
- Exactly.

734
00:33:27,724 --> 00:33:29,413
[Darren] That's actually...

735
00:33:29,413 --> 00:33:31,379
[Jonathan] Well, that's...
I feel like if we're gonna
have Ricky's vibe in here,

736
00:33:31,379 --> 00:33:33,068
it has to have
that beachy tone to it.

737
00:33:33,068 --> 00:33:34,862
[Drew] <i>We wanted to make sure
that Ricky had a space</i>

738
00:33:34,862 --> 00:33:36,862
<i>that could work for him
as an office,</i>

739
00:33:36,862 --> 00:33:38,379
<i>somewhere where
the guys can jam,</i>

740
00:33:38,379 --> 00:33:40,896
but also has to be
a great area for the family.

741
00:33:40,896 --> 00:33:42,241
Is there anything missing?

742
00:33:43,206 --> 00:33:44,724
I don't know.
Just a couple waves

743
00:33:44,724 --> 00:33:46,724
and a few brewskis
with my bruhs.

744
00:33:46,724 --> 00:33:48,275
Uh, I think
Ricky's gonna love it.

745
00:33:48,275 --> 00:33:50,103
- That's all that matters.
- [Darren] Yeah, I think
we're good.

746
00:33:50,103 --> 00:33:54,034
In the way that Ricky has
showered my life with extras,

747
00:33:54,034 --> 00:33:55,413
<i>jobs and opportunities,</i>

748
00:33:55,413 --> 00:33:58,172
<i>and things that just like,
were beyond
my wildest dreams,</i>

749
00:33:58,172 --> 00:33:59,965
<i>those all kinda get packed in
in the things</i>

750
00:33:59,965 --> 00:34:01,862
<i>like giving back
an outdoor kitchen
and a hot tub,</i>

751
00:34:01,862 --> 00:34:04,275
things that he can share
with his friends and family

752
00:34:04,275 --> 00:34:06,344
<i>when they come visit.
So it's a fair trade.</i>

753
00:34:06,344 --> 00:34:09,103
Oh, man, orange water
Gnarly, bro.

754
00:34:09,103 --> 00:34:10,758
Ride those
free radicals, bruh.

755
00:34:10,758 --> 00:34:12,034
You're still doing
the surfer thing?

756
00:34:12,034 --> 00:34:13,931
Yeah, I am.
I was really in character
for a sec.

757
00:34:13,931 --> 00:34:15,103
- Good.
- I know. Good, huh?

758
00:34:15,103 --> 00:34:16,689
[Jonathan] I think
we are ready.

759
00:34:21,793 --> 00:34:24,586
Yo. What's up, dude?

760
00:34:24,586 --> 00:34:26,758
How was your,
how was your trip?

761
00:34:26,758 --> 00:34:28,793
<i>Are you,
are you in my backyard?</i>

762
00:34:28,793 --> 00:34:29,793
I am.

763
00:34:29,793 --> 00:34:31,862
So, just something
really quick about this.

764
00:34:31,862 --> 00:34:33,931
I was returning
some of your drum stands,

765
00:34:33,931 --> 00:34:35,793
and I wasn't really looking
where I was going,

766
00:34:35,793 --> 00:34:39,413
- and I may or may not have
chipped the gate itself.
<i>- Okay.</i>

767
00:34:39,413 --> 00:34:40,827
You... I'll show you
when you get here.

768
00:34:40,827 --> 00:34:42,896
But I did something
to make up for my sins.

769
00:34:42,896 --> 00:34:44,931
<i>- All right.
- Just hurry up.</i>

770
00:34:44,931 --> 00:34:46,482
- I'll see you in a bit.
<i>- Okay, bye.</i>

771
00:34:46,482 --> 00:34:47,931
- He has no idea.
- [Jonathan and Drew chuckle]

772
00:34:47,931 --> 00:34:49,896
- [Jonathan] No clue.
- I think the only thing cooler

773
00:34:49,896 --> 00:34:51,586
than what you guys have done,

774
00:34:51,586 --> 00:34:53,586
- is the reaction
we're about to get from Ricky.
- Oh, yeah.

775
00:34:53,586 --> 00:34:55,413
- Looking forward to it.
- All right. All right,
see you in a sec.

776
00:34:59,275 --> 00:35:00,206
[whispers] He's here.

777
00:35:03,206 --> 00:35:04,724
<i>Buongiorno!</i>

778
00:35:04,724 --> 00:35:05,827
Welcome.

779
00:35:05,827 --> 00:35:07,310
[chuckles]

780
00:35:07,310 --> 00:35:08,689
[Darren] You like it?
What do you think?

781
00:35:08,689 --> 00:35:09,862
Dude, this is insane.

782
00:35:09,862 --> 00:35:12,241
So you broke the gate
when you painted the house?

783
00:35:12,241 --> 00:35:15,068
- Yeah. Thanks.
- You painted...
Dude, thank you.

784
00:35:15,068 --> 00:35:16,379
[Darren] Well, dude,
I owe you,

785
00:35:16,379 --> 00:35:17,724
so I thought
I'd paint your house.

786
00:35:17,724 --> 00:35:19,172
I gotta take this all in.

787
00:35:19,172 --> 00:35:20,896
- Yeah, it's
pretty awesome, man.
- This is insane,

788
00:35:20,896 --> 00:35:23,206
- I'm glad you like it.
- Okay, but like, the gate.

789
00:35:23,206 --> 00:35:26,206
So I was lying.
I didn't mess up your gate.

790
00:35:26,206 --> 00:35:28,000
I wouldn't have done that.
I wouldn't have
screwed that up.

791
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,034
- But I did add something else.
- Wait.

792
00:35:30,034 --> 00:35:31,344
Wait a second, what is this?

793
00:35:31,344 --> 00:35:33,241
- This was the garage.
- What did you do?

794
00:35:33,241 --> 00:35:34,689
Oh, my God!

795
00:35:42,517 --> 00:35:44,448
Okay, but like, the gate.

796
00:35:44,448 --> 00:35:47,206
So I was lying.
I didn't mess up your gate.

797
00:35:47,206 --> 00:35:49,172
I wouldn't have done that.
I wouldn't have
screwed that up.

798
00:35:49,172 --> 00:35:51,241
- But I did add something else.
- Wait.

799
00:35:51,241 --> 00:35:52,586
Wait a second, what is this?

800
00:35:52,586 --> 00:35:54,620
- This was the garage.
- What did you do?

801
00:35:54,620 --> 00:35:56,241
Yes, there was a garage door.

802
00:35:56,241 --> 00:35:58,482
And that's not
a garage anymore.
That's something else.

803
00:35:58,482 --> 00:35:59,827
What's happening?

804
00:35:59,827 --> 00:36:01,172
Well, uh...

805
00:36:01,172 --> 00:36:02,551
You did this by yourself?

806
00:36:02,551 --> 00:36:04,379
Well, I didn't do it
all my by myself.

807
00:36:04,379 --> 00:36:05,931
I can't take
full credit for it.

808
00:36:05,931 --> 00:36:08,310
- I may or may not
have had a little help.
- [Jonathan] Hello!

809
00:36:08,310 --> 00:36:09,586
[Darren] That was terrifying.

810
00:36:10,896 --> 00:36:12,413
- [Drew] You know,
we thought we'd come...
- What?

811
00:36:12,413 --> 00:36:13,344
...and give a little hand.

812
00:36:13,344 --> 00:36:14,620
- How are you?
- [Ricky] What's up, guys?

813
00:36:14,620 --> 00:36:15,655
How are you?

814
00:36:15,655 --> 00:36:18,620
To see the Property Brothers,
to see these two

815
00:36:18,620 --> 00:36:21,827
icons of renovation and design

816
00:36:21,827 --> 00:36:23,310
be at our house,

817
00:36:23,310 --> 00:36:25,827
I mean, the whole thing
is just next level.

818
00:36:25,827 --> 00:36:29,000
Man, you've done way more
great things for me

819
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,551
than I've ever been able
to do for you, so...

820
00:36:31,551 --> 00:36:33,172
I mean, I could go off
for hours and hours.

821
00:36:33,172 --> 00:36:34,655
I really have to these guys.

822
00:36:34,655 --> 00:36:35,931
And maybe it's
just the sun in my eyes,

823
00:36:35,931 --> 00:36:38,000
but if I look you in the eye,
Rick, I'm gonna start crying.

824
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,068
So this was a small token
of all my appreciation

825
00:36:41,068 --> 00:36:44,034
- for everything you've done.
- This is not like you...

826
00:36:44,034 --> 00:36:45,586
I don't even know
what you did,

827
00:36:45,586 --> 00:36:47,344
- but you didn't
have to do this.
- Did you have...

828
00:36:47,344 --> 00:36:48,689
Of course, man.
You have no idea.

829
00:36:48,689 --> 00:36:50,206
- This is just the outside.
- Dude, thank you.

830
00:36:50,206 --> 00:36:51,689
- Of course.
- Thank you already, man.

831
00:36:51,689 --> 00:36:53,068
Of course, man.

832
00:36:53,068 --> 00:36:55,034
Just wait for it.
Hope you got your diaper on.

833
00:36:55,034 --> 00:36:56,655
Do you have any idea
what's on the other side

834
00:36:56,655 --> 00:36:57,896
- of this fence or that wall?
- No.

835
00:36:57,896 --> 00:36:59,551
I thought it was my backyard.

836
00:36:59,551 --> 00:37:01,896
I thought maybe my dirt pit.

837
00:37:01,896 --> 00:37:03,620
[Drew] Oh,
it is your backyard.

838
00:37:03,620 --> 00:37:05,068
- But it's not the dirt pit.
- All right.

839
00:37:05,068 --> 00:37:06,655
- Come on inside.
- Come on,
let's go check it out.

840
00:37:07,931 --> 00:37:09,103
What?

841
00:37:09,413 --> 00:37:10,586
What?

842
00:37:10,586 --> 00:37:11,896
- [Darren] Look at that.
- [Ricky] What?

843
00:37:11,896 --> 00:37:13,448
[Darren] Look at this, man.

844
00:37:13,448 --> 00:37:15,758
Look at the, you know,
at the everything.

845
00:37:15,758 --> 00:37:17,413
- [Ricky] Oh, my God.
- [Darren] The everything.

846
00:37:17,413 --> 00:37:19,413
- [Ricky] Let's go!
- Let's go.

847
00:37:19,413 --> 00:37:20,931
Let's get in here.
Look at this.

848
00:37:20,931 --> 00:37:22,896
[Jonathan] Darren was saying
that this space

849
00:37:22,896 --> 00:37:25,758
was very underutilized.

850
00:37:25,758 --> 00:37:28,068
But now,
you have a fully-functional

851
00:37:28,068 --> 00:37:29,965
outdoor dining space
and kitchen.

852
00:37:29,965 --> 00:37:32,965
This is so low-maintenance.
This is all synthetic turf.

853
00:37:32,965 --> 00:37:35,620
So you don't have to
worry about
mowing it and cutting it.

854
00:37:35,620 --> 00:37:37,103
[Ricky] Yeah,
this is unbelievable.

855
00:37:37,103 --> 00:37:38,724
[laughing] Oh, my God, dude.

856
00:37:38,724 --> 00:37:40,620
Darren promised
he'll come over

857
00:37:40,620 --> 00:37:42,034
and clean your grill
whenever you needed.

858
00:37:42,034 --> 00:37:43,241
Just like he painted my house.

859
00:37:43,241 --> 00:37:44,724
That's right. Yes. Exactly.

860
00:37:44,724 --> 00:37:46,379
I did all of it myself.

861
00:37:46,379 --> 00:37:49,206
He's joking, he's kidding,
but in reality,

862
00:37:49,206 --> 00:37:51,379
from the framing
to the demolition,

863
00:37:51,379 --> 00:37:53,620
he was literally here
the whole time,

864
00:37:53,620 --> 00:37:56,103
all the way through,
making sure that everything
was perfect for you.

865
00:37:56,103 --> 00:37:57,758
- Wow.
- It's actually annoying though

866
00:37:57,758 --> 00:38:00,034
because not only is he good
at every instrument

867
00:38:00,034 --> 00:38:02,310
- and speaks 1,000 languages...
- Yeah.

868
00:38:02,310 --> 00:38:04,344
...he now also can
put designer

869
00:38:04,344 --> 00:38:05,931
and contractor on his resume.

870
00:38:05,931 --> 00:38:07,620
[Ricky] <i>I just can't
wait to see</i>

871
00:38:07,620 --> 00:38:09,689
what sort of
construction worker jobs

872
00:38:09,689 --> 00:38:12,000
you get offered now to play.

873
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,965
- That's right. You hear that?
- Hear that Hollywood?

874
00:38:13,965 --> 00:38:16,103
- You hear that
casting directors?
- [laughing]

875
00:38:16,103 --> 00:38:19,000
I can pretend
how to use a jackhammer
just fine.

876
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,034
This is a space
for the whole family.

877
00:38:21,034 --> 00:38:22,862
And for your guests,
and people that come over.

878
00:38:22,862 --> 00:38:26,448
But most of the time,
day to day,

879
00:38:26,448 --> 00:38:29,655
the garage is probably
gonna be just for you.

880
00:38:29,655 --> 00:38:31,620
- Take a look.
- All right, let's do it.
You ready for this?

881
00:38:31,620 --> 00:38:32,931
Ricky is already picturing

882
00:38:32,931 --> 00:38:34,965
how his family can use
this outdoor space.

883
00:38:34,965 --> 00:38:36,620
And if he's this excited
about the outside,

884
00:38:36,620 --> 00:38:37,965
he's gonna lose his mind

885
00:38:37,965 --> 00:38:39,517
when he sees
inside the garage.

886
00:38:39,517 --> 00:38:41,000
[Darren] Three, two, one.

887
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,689
Come on in, man.

888
00:38:42,689 --> 00:38:43,862
What?

889
00:38:46,310 --> 00:38:47,517
What?

890
00:38:47,517 --> 00:38:49,137
- Yeah, dude.
- [Jonathan] Come on in.

891
00:38:49,137 --> 00:38:51,137
- [Darren] Look at this.
Come on in, dude.
- [Ricky] Oh, my God.

892
00:38:51,137 --> 00:38:52,103
[Darren] Look at this.

893
00:38:52,827 --> 00:38:54,517
This was just a wasteland.

894
00:38:54,517 --> 00:38:55,896
I mean, it was a garage.

895
00:38:55,896 --> 00:38:58,517
- It was just
where I kept the junk.
- [Darren] Garages are

896
00:38:58,517 --> 00:39:01,241
supposed to be nice.
<i>It was a haunted murder house.</i>

897
00:39:01,241 --> 00:39:02,551
[Ricky] <i>I can't even
comprehend,</i>

898
00:39:02,551 --> 00:39:04,862
<i>like, how a garage
can become this.</i>

899
00:39:04,862 --> 00:39:05,758
It's pretty flexible.

900
00:39:05,758 --> 00:39:07,241
I mean, this is a, you know,

901
00:39:07,241 --> 00:39:08,551
just a regular couch
to hang out on.

902
00:39:08,551 --> 00:39:09,827
But it's also a bed.

903
00:39:09,827 --> 00:39:11,068
You have a little
desk space over here.

904
00:39:11,068 --> 00:39:13,551
You got a full kitchenette
situation over here.

905
00:39:13,551 --> 00:39:14,827
- Check this out.
- [Ricky] What is it?

906
00:39:14,827 --> 00:39:16,172
This goes... These slid in.

907
00:39:16,896 --> 00:39:18,241
Whoa!

908
00:39:18,241 --> 00:39:20,379
- That got a reaction.
- [laughter]

909
00:39:20,379 --> 00:39:23,103
[Ricky] <i>This space
is so immaculately designed.</i>

910
00:39:23,103 --> 00:39:25,931
And the fact that you guys
thought of things like

911
00:39:25,931 --> 00:39:29,206
the surfing and leaving
the little bits of storage.

912
00:39:29,206 --> 00:39:31,689
Wow. This is insane.

913
00:39:31,689 --> 00:39:34,241
<i>The fact that it operates
as a bedroom
and a place to work,</i>

914
00:39:34,241 --> 00:39:37,896
yet still functions
as a storage garage,

915
00:39:37,896 --> 00:39:39,068
is just unbelievable.

916
00:39:39,068 --> 00:39:40,103
What?

917
00:39:40,862 --> 00:39:43,206
- Oh, my God!
- [Drew] Nice.

918
00:39:43,206 --> 00:39:44,448
- Nice.
- Look at this.

919
00:39:44,448 --> 00:39:47,068
This shower
is just unbelievable.

920
00:39:47,068 --> 00:39:49,551
- [Darren] Yeah, you get...
- This is nicer than
any bathroom in the house.

921
00:39:49,551 --> 00:39:51,862
[Drew] <i>Ricky has wanted
to transform the garage
for so long,</i>

922
00:39:51,862 --> 00:39:53,862
but he didn't have
the skills to do it,

923
00:39:53,862 --> 00:39:55,482
that's why we're here.
We came to make it easy

924
00:39:55,482 --> 00:39:57,034
to transform his life.

925
00:39:57,034 --> 00:39:58,586
- Stand right there.
- [Darren] We have the ultimate

926
00:39:58,586 --> 00:40:00,896
indoor-outdoor situation here.

927
00:40:02,413 --> 00:40:04,551
- [Jonathan] What?
- Wow!

928
00:40:04,551 --> 00:40:07,931
I always wanted one of these
collapsible door thingies.

929
00:40:07,931 --> 00:40:10,379
And how could things
get any better, Rick?

930
00:40:10,379 --> 00:40:12,206
- What?
- Whoa!

931
00:40:12,206 --> 00:40:13,551
Yeah!

932
00:40:13,551 --> 00:40:14,862
Oh, my God.

933
00:40:14,862 --> 00:40:16,241
- Look at this.
- [Darren] Your new office.

934
00:40:16,241 --> 00:40:18,275
<i>- We've got a new spot to plot.
- [Ricky] Yeah.</i>

935
00:40:18,275 --> 00:40:20,448
- We got the plot spot.
- All right,
we got the plot spot.

936
00:40:20,448 --> 00:40:22,000
- What are we going to do next?
- Do schemes.

937
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,068
Behind the garage,
there was no window here,

938
00:40:24,068 --> 00:40:25,689
<i>it was just a dead space.</i>

939
00:40:25,689 --> 00:40:27,862
<i>And so, that was
one of the things Darren said
you'd always dreamed of,</i>

940
00:40:27,862 --> 00:40:29,413
<i>converting this into
some usable space.</i>

941
00:40:29,413 --> 00:40:31,034
Yeah, this is unbelievable.

942
00:40:31,034 --> 00:40:33,586
- Oh, my God, dude.
- Yeah, man. Dude, this is rad.

943
00:40:33,586 --> 00:40:34,896
I can't get over this.

944
00:40:34,896 --> 00:40:37,000
Darren is the most humble,

945
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,344
the most gracious,
the most thankful.

946
00:40:39,344 --> 00:40:42,172
And that's why Darren wanted
to do this for Ricky.

947
00:40:42,172 --> 00:40:43,517
[Drew] <i>They're not co-workers,</i>

948
00:40:43,517 --> 00:40:45,241
<i>Ricky is not just
Darren's manager,</i>

949
00:40:45,241 --> 00:40:46,413
<i>they're best friends.</i>

950
00:40:46,413 --> 00:40:47,689
Everything they do

951
00:40:47,689 --> 00:40:49,551
is about
being true to themselves
and having fun.

952
00:40:49,551 --> 00:40:51,413
The fact is
you owe me nothing.

953
00:40:51,413 --> 00:40:53,586
This isn't work,
it's just been the two of us

954
00:40:53,586 --> 00:40:55,724
really getting to fulfill
both of our dreams together.

955
00:40:55,724 --> 00:40:56,862
Dreams the whole time, yeah.

956
00:40:56,862 --> 00:40:59,517
The fact that this is
a byproduct of work somehow

957
00:40:59,517 --> 00:41:00,793
is just the most insane...

958
00:41:00,793 --> 00:41:01,965
And that you guys
are here to help,

959
00:41:01,965 --> 00:41:03,827
and, like,
making this all happen

960
00:41:03,827 --> 00:41:05,896
- is just unbelievable.
- I think it's safe to say...

961
00:41:05,896 --> 00:41:09,689
You know, we're buddies,
brother, family.

962
00:41:09,689 --> 00:41:12,344
We're kind of ride-or-die
at this point,
whether we like it or not.

963
00:41:12,344 --> 00:41:13,724
You know, this is a token,

964
00:41:13,724 --> 00:41:15,896
a small token, man.

965
00:41:15,896 --> 00:41:17,275
A small token of
my appreciation.

966
00:41:17,275 --> 00:41:18,655
And yeah, I didn't have to,

967
00:41:18,655 --> 00:41:21,172
but like all the things
that "we don't have to do",

968
00:41:21,172 --> 00:41:22,310
it's fun!

969
00:41:22,310 --> 00:41:24,827
Darren wants ultimately,
Ricky to be happy.

970
00:41:24,827 --> 00:41:26,620
But he knows
that Ricky would not be happy

971
00:41:26,620 --> 00:41:29,137
unless Ruby and Amanda
were also happy.

972
00:41:29,137 --> 00:41:31,724
<i>So the fact that
this is gonna work
for everybody</i>

973
00:41:31,724 --> 00:41:33,137
<i>is very special.</i>

974
00:41:33,137 --> 00:41:35,275
It's amazing. I love it.

975
00:41:35,275 --> 00:41:36,931
[Drew] <i>You can see
both Amanda and Ruby</i>

976
00:41:36,931 --> 00:41:38,241
<i>were as blown away as Ricky.</i>

977
00:41:38,241 --> 00:41:41,275
And the thought that
Darren would do something
so touching

978
00:41:41,275 --> 00:41:43,241
to give back to them
in such a huge way,

979
00:41:43,241 --> 00:41:44,482
it really meant a lot to them.
