1
00:00:01,827 --> 00:00:03,620
You may know this megastar from her hit TV series,
2
00:00:03,620 --> 00:00:07,000
but those close to her know what a real friend she is.
3
00:00:08,379 --> 00:00:09,620
- Hi! - How's it going?
4
00:00:09,620 --> 00:00:10,827
I'm, like, your biggest fan.
5
00:00:10,827 --> 00:00:12,034
That's why I have him over here.
6
00:00:12,034 --> 00:00:13,896
- He's sort of, like, soccer fan. - Security!
7
00:00:13,896 --> 00:00:16,965
And she's showing her love for her cousin and best friend, Thea.
8
00:00:16,965 --> 00:00:20,000
It's been really hard the past few years.
9
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,344
Her parents both have passed suddenly.
10
00:00:22,344 --> 00:00:24,793
Lisa wants to renovate Thea's dated condo...
11
00:00:25,896 --> 00:00:27,275
No! No!
12
00:00:27,827 --> 00:00:29,413
- Whoa! - Oh, yeah!
13
00:00:29,413 --> 00:00:32,137
...to create a modern and comfortable oasis for her cousin...
14
00:00:32,137 --> 00:00:34,310
She's gonna be so blown away.
15
00:00:34,310 --> 00:00:36,172
...and a refuge that functions well
16
00:00:36,172 --> 00:00:37,655
for the animals she rescues.
17
00:00:37,655 --> 00:00:39,137
This is such a gamechanger.
18
00:00:39,137 --> 00:00:40,793
She loves them so much
19
00:00:40,793 --> 00:00:43,689
that it's gonna be a much better existence with Thea.
20
00:00:43,689 --> 00:00:45,172
It's a whole lot of fun...
21
00:00:45,172 --> 00:00:48,827
There's no way that you weren't at home practicing Smelly Cat.
22
00:00:48,827 --> 00:00:50,206
...and the gift of love...
23
00:00:50,206 --> 00:00:51,206
When are you gonna be home?
24
00:00:51,206 --> 00:00:52,862
In, like, seven minutes.
25
00:00:52,862 --> 00:00:53,965
...from one friend...
26
00:00:53,965 --> 00:00:55,517
Well, whose house is this?
27
00:00:55,517 --> 00:00:58,793
- ...to another. - It's Christmas morning times 1 billion trillion.
28
00:00:58,793 --> 00:01:01,448
- And... - Oh, my God!
29
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:09,074
30
00:01:13,103 --> 00:01:15,344
All right, what's your favorite moment from Friends?
31
00:01:15,344 --> 00:01:16,965
Oh, my gosh.
32
00:01:16,965 --> 00:01:19,241
My favorite, favorite is probably when Joey puts on all of Chandler's clothes,
33
00:01:19,241 --> 00:01:20,586
- and then starts lunging. - That was...
34
00:01:20,586 --> 00:01:23,724
Or actually, Smelly Cat, obviously.
35
00:01:23,724 --> 00:01:25,310
- It's hilarious. - Smelly Cat was good.
36
00:01:25,310 --> 00:01:28,551
Actually, I think my favorite Phoebe Buffay moment was, "My eyes! My eyes!"
37
00:01:28,551 --> 00:01:29,689
Yeah.
38
00:01:29,689 --> 00:01:32,793
So many people's lives were affected by that show,
39
00:01:32,793 --> 00:01:36,620
and Lisa had just an incredible character.
40
00:01:36,620 --> 00:01:38,275
I mean, I've never actually met Lisa,
41
00:01:38,275 --> 00:01:40,000
but I just, I think it's amazing
42
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,689
what Lisa's doing for Thea, like...
43
00:01:41,689 --> 00:01:43,517
Thea has been through so much,
44
00:01:43,517 --> 00:01:45,137
especially over the last year or two,
45
00:01:45,137 --> 00:01:48,793
losing her parents and sort of dealing with the family and the estate, but...
46
00:01:48,793 --> 00:01:52,758
Can you imagine also taking in three cats and three dogs?
47
00:01:52,758 --> 00:01:55,620
Lisa's cousin Thea is more like her best friend.
48
00:01:55,620 --> 00:01:57,413
She's an incredibly selfless person
49
00:01:57,413 --> 00:01:59,620
who adopts abused and older animals
50
00:01:59,620 --> 00:02:00,896
and gives them a wonderful home.
51
00:02:00,896 --> 00:02:02,517
I think it's one of those situations
52
00:02:02,517 --> 00:02:04,931
where bad things happen in clusters.
53
00:02:04,931 --> 00:02:07,241
- Yeah. - You know, she's struggling through a lot of adversity,
54
00:02:07,241 --> 00:02:09,758
but at the same time, she's still got a big heart,
55
00:02:09,758 --> 00:02:11,482
and Lisa has been trying to think
56
00:02:11,482 --> 00:02:12,620
of the right thing to do
57
00:02:12,620 --> 00:02:15,034
- to show her that, you know, she is loved. - Yeah.
58
00:02:15,034 --> 00:02:17,655
When Lisa found out that Thea would be traveling out east...
59
00:02:17,655 --> 00:02:19,448
Here it is.
60
00:02:19,448 --> 00:02:23,172
She knew this would be the perfect time to finally get in and surprise her
61
00:02:23,172 --> 00:02:24,655
with a beautiful renovation.
62
00:02:24,655 --> 00:02:27,137
- Pivot, pivot! - Pivot!
63
00:02:27,137 --> 00:02:28,482
We need a big sofa.
64
00:02:28,482 --> 00:02:30,517
Oh, wow, you could definitely fit a big sofa through that door.
65
00:02:30,517 --> 00:02:31,931
- Yes. - That's massive.
66
00:02:33,344 --> 00:02:34,379
Who is it?
67
00:02:34,379 --> 00:02:36,068
Uh, housekeeping.
68
00:02:36,068 --> 00:02:38,448
Here to turn down the bed.
69
00:02:38,448 --> 00:02:39,620
Fluff your condo.
70
00:02:39,620 --> 00:02:41,758
- Hi! How are you? - How's it going?
71
00:02:41,758 --> 00:02:45,103
You may or may not be able to tell we're Friends fans.
72
00:02:45,103 --> 00:02:46,448
I'm, like, your biggest fan.
73
00:02:46,448 --> 00:02:48,000
- Oh. - I love everything you do.
74
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,413
That's why I have him over here. He's sort of, like, soccer fan.
75
00:02:50,413 --> 00:02:51,758
Security, security!
76
00:02:51,758 --> 00:02:54,620
Phoebe, amazing character, and in real life,
77
00:02:54,620 --> 00:02:56,586
oh, my gosh, Lisa is amazing.
78
00:02:56,586 --> 00:02:58,000
Are you excited?
79
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,241
I'm really excited.
80
00:02:59,241 --> 00:03:00,586
You're gonna have a really good time,
81
00:03:00,586 --> 00:03:02,482
'cause you don't even need to get further than right here.
82
00:03:02,482 --> 00:03:03,413
Oh, wow.
83
00:03:03,413 --> 00:03:04,413
It's everywhere.
84
00:03:04,413 --> 00:03:07,758
- Oh, wow. - It's the whole place from 1982.
85
00:03:07,758 --> 00:03:09,896
- All right. - Oh, wow, it's cute, though.
86
00:03:09,896 --> 00:03:11,137
Oh, no, it's great.
87
00:03:11,137 --> 00:03:14,862
I mean, it's a really great space is the thing.
88
00:03:14,862 --> 00:03:16,827
- So much light. - Uh-huh.
89
00:03:16,827 --> 00:03:17,793
She has a lot more room
90
00:03:17,793 --> 00:03:19,482
than most condos I've seen in the city.
91
00:03:19,482 --> 00:03:21,310
No, it's really big. That's what's great.
92
00:03:21,310 --> 00:03:22,896
And she loves it here.
93
00:03:22,896 --> 00:03:26,379
I mean, every unit around here has remodeled their place
94
00:03:26,379 --> 00:03:29,310
and made it really spectacular.
95
00:03:29,310 --> 00:03:32,034
- But not always to code. - Oh.
96
00:03:32,034 --> 00:03:33,965
- Oh, there's a leak. - And there's been leaks and things.
97
00:03:33,965 --> 00:03:35,241
What's important to her?
98
00:03:35,241 --> 00:03:37,310
What do you think Thea would say is the most important thing?
99
00:03:37,310 --> 00:03:39,482
To make this really pet-friendly.
100
00:03:39,482 --> 00:03:41,344
I mean, the dogs are so sweet.
101
00:03:41,344 --> 00:03:42,689
They've really been abused,
102
00:03:42,689 --> 00:03:46,172
and so, it's a problem to even take them outside.
103
00:03:46,172 --> 00:03:48,379
Even inside here, I think we can put some flooring in
104
00:03:48,379 --> 00:03:51,206
that could be even more durable for the pets.
105
00:03:51,206 --> 00:03:52,896
The problem is, with this kind of floor,
106
00:03:52,896 --> 00:03:55,103
any staining will go right into it
107
00:03:55,103 --> 00:03:56,965
- and it will sit within this tile. - Yeah.
108
00:03:56,965 --> 00:03:58,758
But also, this is probably not the best,
109
00:03:58,758 --> 00:04:00,689
'cause it's very uneven, the flooring here.
110
00:04:00,689 --> 00:04:02,724
Yeah, and that's a big deal.
111
00:04:02,724 --> 00:04:05,379
Since Thea bought this place and moved in,
112
00:04:05,379 --> 00:04:07,137
and I think it's 10 years,
113
00:04:07,137 --> 00:04:08,758
all I could think was,
114
00:04:08,758 --> 00:04:11,310
"Yeah, but you have to redo the floors.
115
00:04:11,310 --> 00:04:15,344
It's not up to date and it's uneven by design."
116
00:04:15,344 --> 00:04:18,482
It sounds like Thea just needs to have a space that feels right for her
117
00:04:18,482 --> 00:04:20,896
- and feels right for the pets that she's helping. - Yeah.
118
00:04:20,896 --> 00:04:22,344
And she deserves it.
119
00:04:22,344 --> 00:04:23,551
Yeah.
120
00:04:23,551 --> 00:04:25,827
Thea is my cousin,
121
00:04:25,827 --> 00:04:30,068
but Thea does feel like a soul sister to me, I have to say.
122
00:04:30,068 --> 00:04:32,551
Uh, we met when we were 12.
123
00:04:32,551 --> 00:04:34,413
And then, as like, as young adults,
124
00:04:34,413 --> 00:04:36,137
we got to know each other.
125
00:04:36,137 --> 00:04:38,310
We met a few times as teens.
126
00:04:38,310 --> 00:04:40,137
She came to visit me once in New York,
127
00:04:40,137 --> 00:04:41,758
and then I moved here,
128
00:04:41,758 --> 00:04:44,965
and the only person I knew was Lisa Kudrow.
129
00:04:44,965 --> 00:04:46,551
But I didn't really know her.
130
00:04:46,551 --> 00:04:48,896
But then, that evolved to, "Oh, my God.
131
00:04:48,896 --> 00:04:50,724
This person is so smart,
132
00:04:50,724 --> 00:04:52,827
so funny, so caring,
133
00:04:52,827 --> 00:04:54,965
I don't ever use the word blessing,
134
00:04:54,965 --> 00:04:56,896
but I'm just gonna say it, it's such a blessing
135
00:04:56,896 --> 00:04:59,965
that I get to share this part of my life with her.
136
00:04:59,965 --> 00:05:02,482
We just have the same sense of humor.
137
00:05:02,482 --> 00:05:08,275
She's slightly funnier than I am, and, uh, we're so alike.
138
00:05:08,275 --> 00:05:10,931
I mean, there are some huge forks in the road.
139
00:05:10,931 --> 00:05:12,620
I love musicals. She hates them.
140
00:05:12,620 --> 00:05:15,137
I love going clothes shopping. She would rather die.
141
00:05:15,137 --> 00:05:16,827
But other than that,
142
00:05:16,827 --> 00:05:19,827
I would say we're sisters. I would just say that.
143
00:05:19,827 --> 00:05:21,862
This year was tough, right?
144
00:05:21,862 --> 00:05:23,517
COVID was tough for everyone.
145
00:05:23,517 --> 00:05:29,310
But for Thea, hard things have just, like, dogpiled onto her.
146
00:05:29,310 --> 00:05:32,448
Thea was really close with her parents,
147
00:05:32,448 --> 00:05:36,275
and especially her father, and he died in 2018.
148
00:05:36,275 --> 00:05:40,379
Then, not long after, her mother was in decline.
149
00:05:40,379 --> 00:05:42,034
The way in which my father passed
150
00:05:42,034 --> 00:05:44,965
was as peaceful and heart-wrenching as that sort of thing can be,
151
00:05:44,965 --> 00:05:46,137
but we were all there,
152
00:05:46,137 --> 00:05:48,034
and he did it on his own terms in his house.
153
00:05:48,724 --> 00:05:50,827
This past August,
154
00:05:50,827 --> 00:05:54,172
my mom fell, and she passed suddenly,
155
00:05:54,172 --> 00:05:57,379
and it was the opposite of how anyone would wanna die.
156
00:05:57,379 --> 00:05:59,275
But, yeah. Yeah.
157
00:05:59,275 --> 00:06:00,655
Lisa's been there through the whole thing,
158
00:06:00,655 --> 00:06:03,206
and yes, it has been a bumpy ride.
159
00:06:03,206 --> 00:06:07,172
Thea rescues animals that have real needs.
160
00:06:07,172 --> 00:06:09,206
I know she loves them so much
161
00:06:09,206 --> 00:06:10,896
that they improve, they're better.
162
00:06:10,896 --> 00:06:12,724
However much longer they have to live,
163
00:06:12,724 --> 00:06:15,448
it's gonna be a much better existence with Thea.
164
00:06:15,448 --> 00:06:17,931
That's a big deal to me.
165
00:06:17,931 --> 00:06:21,034
I don't know why this fell into my niche,
166
00:06:21,034 --> 00:06:23,103
but this is definitely the number one.
167
00:06:23,103 --> 00:06:26,000
I mean, I'm either the greatest person in the world
168
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,896
or the biggest idiot in the world.
169
00:06:27,896 --> 00:06:29,655
It's kind of, it could go either way, but...
170
00:06:29,655 --> 00:06:31,689
It makes me so happy.
171
00:06:31,689 --> 00:06:34,689
You know, Thea doesn't really ask for help.
172
00:06:35,137 --> 00:06:36,241
Ever.
173
00:06:36,241 --> 00:06:39,448
And I know she needs a pet-friendly place,
174
00:06:39,448 --> 00:06:41,862
so, yeah, this is just the best thing ever
175
00:06:41,862 --> 00:06:44,241
'cause Thea means a lot to me.
176
00:06:44,241 --> 00:06:46,103
She means a lot.
177
00:06:46,103 --> 00:06:48,275
- This is so bright and beautiful. - Yeah.
178
00:06:48,275 --> 00:06:50,724
And it looks like she's actually done work in the kitchen already.
179
00:06:50,724 --> 00:06:53,586
She did, she did, like, a while ago.
180
00:06:53,586 --> 00:06:54,862
She did redo that.
181
00:06:54,862 --> 00:06:56,965
- So I think that's good. - It looks great.
182
00:06:56,965 --> 00:06:59,931
But, I mean, she didn't get to do anything else.
183
00:06:59,931 --> 00:07:02,931
This is, this is the part that's...
184
00:07:02,931 --> 00:07:04,827
- What is this? - I don't know.
185
00:07:04,827 --> 00:07:06,655
- Why? - Why? You tell me.
186
00:07:06,655 --> 00:07:09,655
Imagine how open and connected this would feel
187
00:07:09,655 --> 00:07:11,344
if these can all come out.
188
00:07:11,344 --> 00:07:12,827
That's what I was hoping.
189
00:07:12,827 --> 00:07:14,586
- Yeah. - And then it would just be open and great.
190
00:07:14,586 --> 00:07:17,413
But then what do we do about storage?
191
00:07:17,413 --> 00:07:19,103
'Cause she does, there's not enough.
192
00:07:19,103 --> 00:07:23,137
We could always see about integrating a closet or a pantry here.
193
00:07:23,137 --> 00:07:25,172
- Yeah. - Obviously, this can come out.
194
00:07:25,172 --> 00:07:26,655
- This section here can come out. - Right.
195
00:07:26,655 --> 00:07:30,379
We would wanna know, is this load-bearing? Is this load-bearing?
196
00:07:30,379 --> 00:07:33,655
Priority number one, poke holes, take a look at what we're dealing with.
197
00:07:33,655 --> 00:07:35,586
Otherwise, aesthetically,
198
00:07:35,586 --> 00:07:37,793
- there's so much that we could do. - Yeah.
199
00:07:37,793 --> 00:07:39,862
What's most important? You said she needs storage.
200
00:07:39,862 --> 00:07:41,931
- Yeah, yeah. - Does she need more hanging space storage?
201
00:07:41,931 --> 00:07:44,172
Or does she need more drawers and cabinets?
202
00:07:45,206 --> 00:07:46,103
She needs both.
203
00:07:46,103 --> 00:07:47,655
- Okay. - How do you do that?
204
00:07:47,655 --> 00:07:50,551
- That's the... - I mean, definitely hanging space.
205
00:07:50,551 --> 00:07:51,793
Some people collect art,
206
00:07:51,793 --> 00:07:53,965
and Thea collects vintage clothing,
207
00:07:53,965 --> 00:07:56,758
and there are phenomenally beautiful pieces.
208
00:07:56,758 --> 00:07:59,103
Maybe we could enclose something really stylish here.
209
00:07:59,103 --> 00:08:01,689
We wouldn't typically do that right off of the living space,
210
00:08:01,689 --> 00:08:03,206
but there could be something nice we do.
211
00:08:03,206 --> 00:08:04,413
Oh, that would be great.
212
00:08:04,413 --> 00:08:08,034
Her own closets are overflowing, so she needs storage.
213
00:08:08,034 --> 00:08:11,310
One thing I'm noticing is the sheet music above the fireplace.
214
00:08:11,310 --> 00:08:12,482
Is Thea musical?
215
00:08:12,482 --> 00:08:15,655
Yeah, her father was a conductor
216
00:08:15,655 --> 00:08:18,517
of the, um, Oakland Symphonic Orchestra, big deal.
217
00:08:18,517 --> 00:08:20,034
No, for real, big deal.
218
00:08:20,034 --> 00:08:23,241
Mother, opera singer, and, yeah.
219
00:08:23,241 --> 00:08:25,551
They're all extremely musical.
220
00:08:25,551 --> 00:08:27,551
And you're musical. I mean, we've heard you sing.
221
00:08:27,551 --> 00:08:30,413
- Have you? - I have a question.
222
00:08:30,413 --> 00:08:33,172
Does this, does this sound familiar, by any chance?
223
00:08:33,172 --> 00:08:35,482
- I'm not sure... - I knew it. I knew this was gonna happen.
224
00:08:35,482 --> 00:08:36,413
Oh, no.
225
00:08:41,206 --> 00:08:43,103
Oh, and you're playing Smelly Cat.
226
00:08:43,103 --> 00:08:45,586
- Smelly cat, smelly cat... - Well, very good.
227
00:08:45,586 --> 00:08:47,827
I'm just gonna point out, there is another guitar over here.
228
00:08:47,827 --> 00:08:49,344
- There is. - It's not your fault...
229
00:08:49,344 --> 00:08:50,931
I don't remember how to play it.
230
00:08:50,931 --> 00:08:53,655
I don't mind when people make Friends jokes or references.
231
00:08:53,655 --> 00:08:56,068
But I don't remember most of it.
232
00:08:56,068 --> 00:08:57,896
If you don't wanna play, but you wanna join in
233
00:08:57,896 --> 00:08:59,206
for some vocals, do you know the words?
234
00:08:59,206 --> 00:09:02,000
- Yes, I know the words! - I'm just asking. I don't want...
235
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,000
I don't want you to feel pressured, but pressure.
236
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,896
There is no way that you weren't at home practicing Smelly Cat.
237
00:09:07,896 --> 00:09:10,379
- What? I've never played it before. - So you knew, I know you.
238
00:09:10,379 --> 00:09:13,586
I know you. You rehearse and practice everything. You like it...
239
00:09:13,586 --> 00:09:15,448
You're sitting in front of the mirror practicing, probably.
240
00:09:19,586 --> 00:09:21,137
Fault.
241
00:09:21,137 --> 00:09:24,068
- I need to work on my harmony. - You just threw me so off.
242
00:09:24,068 --> 00:09:25,655
You're out of the band, Drew!
243
00:09:25,655 --> 00:09:29,379
I'm just embarrassed I did such a poor job with Smelly Cat.
244
00:09:29,379 --> 00:09:31,034
I should've just let Drew do it.
245
00:09:31,034 --> 00:09:32,586
Can you cut it that way?
246
00:09:32,586 --> 00:09:34,241
Maybe that Drew's doing it
247
00:09:35,241 --> 00:09:36,896
And you can just cut to this, like,
248
00:09:36,896 --> 00:09:39,241
"Oh! It's so good, Drew!"
249
00:09:39,241 --> 00:09:41,758
Okay? 'Cause I just gave you that.
250
00:09:41,758 --> 00:09:43,655
Yeah, that'll work.
251
00:09:43,655 --> 00:09:45,551
- The fireplace hearth... - Yeah.
252
00:09:45,551 --> 00:09:47,241
It doesn't need to come out this far,
253
00:09:47,241 --> 00:09:49,206
so I wonder if maybe we could cut it back a little.
254
00:09:49,206 --> 00:09:51,344
'Cause if this is working, I wouldn't pull this out.
255
00:09:51,344 --> 00:09:54,931
I think it would good if there's something with, like, a mantle.
256
00:09:54,931 --> 00:09:56,448
- Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, absolutely.
257
00:09:56,448 --> 00:09:58,724
Maybe do, like, a plaster finish or something on it,
258
00:09:58,724 --> 00:10:01,172
- just to make it feel like a real statement piece. - Yeah.
259
00:10:01,172 --> 00:10:04,137
- That would be great, and that is important. - I have a question.
260
00:10:04,137 --> 00:10:06,896
Do you think that Thea would enjoy
261
00:10:06,896 --> 00:10:08,896
a new door, new access to the patio,
262
00:10:08,896 --> 00:10:10,241
because she could have it nice and wide open
263
00:10:10,241 --> 00:10:11,965
- for the animals to come in and out? - Yes!
264
00:10:11,965 --> 00:10:13,482
- You have to use the hand. - Yeah, oh, sorry.
265
00:10:13,482 --> 00:10:15,965
- The talking hand. The talking stick. - Yeah.
266
00:10:15,965 --> 00:10:17,379
Um...
267
00:10:17,379 --> 00:10:21,413
Yeah, that to me is, like, the most wasted opportunity, right?
268
00:10:21,413 --> 00:10:24,965
Everything you're doing here is for someone who would
269
00:10:24,965 --> 00:10:26,931
probably never ask for these things for herself.
270
00:10:26,931 --> 00:10:29,793
No, never. Never.
271
00:10:29,793 --> 00:10:31,103
Thea needs function.
272
00:10:31,103 --> 00:10:33,103
She needs more storage space, closet space,
273
00:10:33,103 --> 00:10:34,551
and she also needs durability.
274
00:10:34,551 --> 00:10:37,034
The cats and dogs, and for her, they're gonna wear this place down.
275
00:10:37,034 --> 00:10:38,137
You forgot style.
276
00:10:38,137 --> 00:10:40,103
Style, and style. She deserves style.
277
00:10:40,103 --> 00:10:41,655
- That's right. - Put your shoulder into it.
278
00:10:41,655 --> 00:10:43,482
How does, how does Thea open this?
279
00:10:43,482 --> 00:10:45,241
Well, she doesn't a lot.
280
00:10:45,241 --> 00:10:46,896
Okay, that's an example of why...
281
00:10:46,896 --> 00:10:48,965
- Yeah. - These old ones, they're so hard to open, but also,
282
00:10:48,965 --> 00:10:53,000
if it rains hard, you can see the water is all flowing directly...
283
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,931
- That's supposed to go out here, so... - Yeah. Oh.
284
00:10:55,931 --> 00:10:57,931
Is this outdoor space gonna be just for the pets,
285
00:10:57,931 --> 00:10:59,931
or do you think she would love to have a bit of a retreat
286
00:10:59,931 --> 00:11:01,344
for herself, something comfortable?
287
00:11:01,344 --> 00:11:03,862
Oh, no, I think she'd love to spend time out here.
288
00:11:03,862 --> 00:11:04,965
She would love it.
289
00:11:04,965 --> 00:11:06,551
But look at it.
290
00:11:06,551 --> 00:11:08,379
You can see the membrane on here is in terrible condition.
291
00:11:08,379 --> 00:11:09,724
- Yeah. - It's all peeling.
292
00:11:09,724 --> 00:11:12,379
You know what we could do is we could create, like a, you know,
293
00:11:12,379 --> 00:11:16,000
an elegant, but like, a dog run, a sitting area,
294
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,896
really create a vibe with the furniture
295
00:11:18,896 --> 00:11:20,827
and sort of the accessory pieces that we put in here.
296
00:11:20,827 --> 00:11:22,344
She would love it.
297
00:11:22,344 --> 00:11:25,172
Lisa wants to add style and function to Thea's space,
298
00:11:25,172 --> 00:11:28,896
and new luxury vinyl flooring will offer the sophistication of real hardwood,
299
00:11:28,896 --> 00:11:31,482
but also the durability needed to house five pets.
300
00:11:31,482 --> 00:11:34,000
In the dining area, we'll lose that clunky half wall
301
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,620
to the kitchen for better flow,
302
00:11:35,620 --> 00:11:38,034
and since that post is probably load-bearing,
303
00:11:38,034 --> 00:11:40,379
we tuck it into a new, much-needed pantry.
304
00:11:40,379 --> 00:11:42,862
Then, complement the area with a chic table and seating
305
00:11:42,862 --> 00:11:44,620
for evening meals and entertaining.
306
00:11:44,620 --> 00:11:46,965
On the other side, we'll give Thea what Lisa says
307
00:11:46,965 --> 00:11:49,517
she desperately needs, more storage.
308
00:11:49,517 --> 00:11:51,862
Decorative doors will front a custom closet
309
00:11:51,862 --> 00:11:54,448
giving her vintage clothing collection a new home.
310
00:11:54,448 --> 00:11:57,172
In the living room, we'll revive Thea's dated fireplace
311
00:11:57,172 --> 00:11:59,310
with a reduced and sleek plaster finish,
312
00:11:59,310 --> 00:12:01,896
then dress the space with fashionable furniture,
313
00:12:01,896 --> 00:12:03,586
upholstered in performance fabric
314
00:12:03,586 --> 00:12:05,758
to protect against pet stains and tears.
315
00:12:05,758 --> 00:12:08,206
Finally, we'll turn Thea's beat-up balcony
316
00:12:08,206 --> 00:12:09,862
into a purposeful showpiece.
317
00:12:09,862 --> 00:12:12,758
Chic seating and a custom, easy-to-clean pet run
318
00:12:12,758 --> 00:12:16,379
means less dog walking and more sun soaking for Thea and the pups.
319
00:12:16,379 --> 00:12:18,103
How much time do we have?
320
00:12:18,103 --> 00:12:22,620
Well, okay, Thea's in New York working on her parents' house.
321
00:12:22,620 --> 00:12:24,103
So we have three-and-a-half weeks
322
00:12:24,103 --> 00:12:25,758
- till she comes back. - Oh, wow.
323
00:12:25,758 --> 00:12:28,206
Are you willing to be the Property Sister to see this through?
324
00:12:28,206 --> 00:12:29,896
Yeah. What does that mean?
325
00:12:29,896 --> 00:12:31,413
I don't know what it means.
326
00:12:31,413 --> 00:12:33,103
- I'll just say yes! - But it just means you help with the demolition.
327
00:12:33,103 --> 00:12:34,551
You're doing some smashy smashy.
328
00:12:34,551 --> 00:12:35,793
Oh...
329
00:12:35,793 --> 00:12:39,068
Being able to do this for Thea means everything.
330
00:12:39,068 --> 00:12:42,241
And how great that this will be perfect for her
331
00:12:42,241 --> 00:12:45,275
and her little fur family here, right?
332
00:12:45,275 --> 00:12:48,275
It would absolutely change Thea's life.
333
00:12:48,275 --> 00:12:50,931
At the end of the day, Lisa just wants her cousin and best friend
334
00:12:50,931 --> 00:12:53,965
to have a soft place to land after a turbulent few years.
335
00:12:53,965 --> 00:12:56,241
Yeah, not just a stylish space for Thea,
336
00:12:56,241 --> 00:12:58,862
but a functional, comfortable place for the pets she loves.
337
00:13:11,310 --> 00:13:12,931
You've never thrown a sledgehammer in real life?
338
00:13:12,931 --> 00:13:14,896
No, I've never touched one. Is it...
339
00:13:14,896 --> 00:13:16,103
Oh, no, that's...
340
00:13:16,103 --> 00:13:17,413
it's very heavy.
341
00:13:17,413 --> 00:13:19,517
- Yeah. - Well, how am I gonna do this?
342
00:13:19,517 --> 00:13:22,724
Have you ever played, like, some, like, murderer who walks around with a big sledgehammer
343
00:13:22,724 --> 00:13:24,034
and gives crazy eyes to everyone?
344
00:13:24,034 --> 00:13:25,275
- Not yet. - Okay.
345
00:13:25,275 --> 00:13:29,482
Whenever I see the demolition part of this show,
346
00:13:29,482 --> 00:13:33,000
all I can think is, "How is no one getting hurt?"
347
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,034
Just start from here and you're just gonna go, "Boom."
348
00:13:35,034 --> 00:13:37,965
Or even easier, if you want to do it this way
349
00:13:37,965 --> 00:13:40,310
- and just go like this. - Oh, look at that.
350
00:13:40,310 --> 00:13:42,413
- So, hold it like this. - Um, I'm exhausted already.
351
00:13:43,620 --> 00:13:46,724
That hammer, sledgehammer, is it called a sledgehammer?
352
00:13:46,724 --> 00:13:48,758
And it's heavy, I didn't know.
353
00:13:48,758 --> 00:13:50,517
Just remember, don't hit behind you.
354
00:13:50,517 --> 00:13:51,758
Okay.
355
00:13:52,862 --> 00:13:54,724
- No! Oh. - That was a good hit.
356
00:13:54,724 --> 00:13:56,482
Here, turn this way and jab it.
357
00:13:56,482 --> 00:13:58,931
Well, all kinds of problems can happen with this,
358
00:13:58,931 --> 00:14:00,172
'cause it's really heavy.
359
00:14:01,206 --> 00:14:02,344
Oh, no!
360
00:14:02,344 --> 00:14:04,172
It makes me feel bad.
361
00:14:04,172 --> 00:14:06,517
Why? 'Cause I'm breaking things.
362
00:14:06,517 --> 00:14:08,448
Are you breaking the wall or breaking you?
363
00:14:08,448 --> 00:14:10,344
What's the difference? We're all one.
364
00:14:11,413 --> 00:14:13,275
- Okay. - Oh, that was a good hit.
365
00:14:13,275 --> 00:14:14,827
One more time.
366
00:14:14,827 --> 00:14:16,103
Now go just a little to the side.
367
00:14:16,103 --> 00:14:17,034
Maybe you're on a stud.
368
00:14:17,034 --> 00:14:18,172
Oh, God.
369
00:14:18,172 --> 00:14:21,172
I don't know, I always imagine ricocheting things
370
00:14:21,172 --> 00:14:22,931
and, you know, all bets are off.
371
00:14:22,931 --> 00:14:24,103
Give her the saw.
372
00:14:24,103 --> 00:14:25,517
- No, no. - Try it.
373
00:14:25,517 --> 00:14:26,620
You don't even have to turn it on.
374
00:14:26,620 --> 00:14:27,827
- You can... - That's so dangerous.
375
00:14:27,827 --> 00:14:29,448
What if I turn it on by accident?
376
00:14:29,448 --> 00:14:31,000
- Don't pull that trigger. - What?
377
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,551
Put your hand on the black handle.
378
00:14:33,551 --> 00:14:35,172
And then, this hand goes right here.
379
00:14:35,172 --> 00:14:36,689
Look how legit you look.
380
00:14:36,689 --> 00:14:37,827
And then, all you...
381
00:14:37,827 --> 00:14:39,275
So when you're doing this, you'll notice.
382
00:14:39,275 --> 00:14:41,448
All you have to do is when you put it over on the wall or section...
383
00:14:41,448 --> 00:14:44,275
- You're making me do it! - No, I'm just showing you what it would look like.
384
00:14:44,275 --> 00:14:45,931
If you did it. And then, if you did...
385
00:14:45,931 --> 00:14:48,206
No! No! I'm done.
386
00:14:48,206 --> 00:14:49,379
Your turn.
387
00:14:49,379 --> 00:14:50,896
Demolition can be intimidating.
388
00:14:50,896 --> 00:14:54,344
I think Lisa was a little hesitant to get in there, especially with the saw.
389
00:14:54,344 --> 00:14:55,965
Just keep holding nice and tight
390
00:14:55,965 --> 00:14:58,310
and because this is against the wall, it's not gonna move.
391
00:14:58,310 --> 00:14:59,931
And then all you do is you just pull the trigger.
392
00:15:02,241 --> 00:15:04,172
I'm done! I'm done.
393
00:15:04,172 --> 00:15:05,862
- You're doing great. - I'm done.
394
00:15:05,862 --> 00:15:08,344
I've never actually heard somebody cry
395
00:15:08,344 --> 00:15:10,034
while they cut through a wall.
396
00:15:10,034 --> 00:15:13,068
But she did it. Ahhh! Ahhh!
397
00:15:15,793 --> 00:15:18,344
This is so dangerous. Things fly.
398
00:15:18,344 --> 00:15:21,758
And they're hard, crusty things that can just fly
399
00:15:21,758 --> 00:15:23,413
and there, an eye is gone.
400
00:15:23,413 --> 00:15:24,931
- On three, we'll give it a kick. - Yeah.
401
00:15:24,931 --> 00:15:26,379
One, two, three.
402
00:15:27,241 --> 00:15:28,689
- Whoa! - Oh, yeah!
403
00:15:28,689 --> 00:15:32,724
For the first time ever, you can enter her living space.
404
00:15:32,724 --> 00:15:34,931
Ooh.
405
00:15:34,931 --> 00:15:37,000
What do you think when you see it like this?
406
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,827
No, it's already so open.
407
00:15:38,827 --> 00:15:40,896
Removing this half wall had to happen,
408
00:15:40,896 --> 00:15:43,172
but we still need the engineer to inspect the post
409
00:15:43,172 --> 00:15:44,586
between the kitchen and dining room
410
00:15:44,586 --> 00:15:46,379
to see if it's load bearing or not,
411
00:15:46,379 --> 00:15:49,758
and then that'll dictate how big the pantry and opening will be.
412
00:15:49,758 --> 00:15:50,758
Right, but in the meantime...
413
00:15:50,758 --> 00:15:52,931
- Stop! - Up, up.
414
00:15:52,931 --> 00:15:54,551
...we still have a lot more to smash.
415
00:15:55,413 --> 00:15:57,034
- Ah! - Oh.
416
00:16:00,827 --> 00:16:05,068
I think I got the hang out of, like, ripping the tile off.
417
00:16:05,068 --> 00:16:06,482
Lisa.
418
00:16:07,448 --> 00:16:08,620
Stop.
419
00:16:08,620 --> 00:16:10,275
Me? No, never.
420
00:16:11,379 --> 00:16:14,482
But the mechanical is loud,
421
00:16:14,482 --> 00:16:18,896
like, little jackiehammey, or I don't know what they call it. Sorry.
422
00:16:18,896 --> 00:16:20,379
No, no.
423
00:16:20,379 --> 00:16:21,793
Wait, wait.
424
00:16:25,344 --> 00:16:28,586
But it went well, and no one was hurt.
425
00:16:28,586 --> 00:16:32,206
We have a lot to still tackle in three and half weeks,
426
00:16:32,206 --> 00:16:36,103
so we're thinking of ripping these floors out tomorrow if you wanna join.
427
00:16:36,103 --> 00:16:37,655
Ah. I can't.
428
00:16:37,655 --> 00:16:39,655
- You're washing your hair that day? - I'm busy-- Yeah.
429
00:16:41,275 --> 00:16:42,689
Thanks. All right, thanks.
430
00:16:42,689 --> 00:16:43,827
- You owe me-- - Look what I did.
431
00:16:43,827 --> 00:16:46,448
Round of applause.
432
00:16:46,448 --> 00:16:48,482
Standing novation.
433
00:16:48,482 --> 00:16:49,931
I only had to demand it.
434
00:16:49,931 --> 00:16:51,275
- It's okay. - But I got it.
435
00:16:51,275 --> 00:16:53,241
- Thank you very much. - Of course.
436
00:16:53,241 --> 00:16:54,448
This is so exciting.
437
00:17:03,896 --> 00:17:06,965
Knowing how microscopic our timeline is...
438
00:17:06,965 --> 00:17:08,827
We don't have a lot of time.
439
00:17:08,827 --> 00:17:10,965
I'm glad that we don't have to tackle the kitchen
440
00:17:10,965 --> 00:17:12,413
'cause she renovated a few years back.
441
00:17:12,413 --> 00:17:13,862
- It looks good. - Yeah.
442
00:17:13,862 --> 00:17:15,379
It's the main area,
443
00:17:15,379 --> 00:17:16,482
the dining room, the living room,
444
00:17:16,482 --> 00:17:18,724
and that that back patio that really needs help.
445
00:17:23,758 --> 00:17:25,517
It's actually coming up like butter.
446
00:17:25,517 --> 00:17:27,586
I thought this would probably be a two-day job
447
00:17:27,586 --> 00:17:28,931
We'll have this done in half a day.
448
00:17:28,931 --> 00:17:31,862
- I hope so. - Hopefully, it's all this loose.
449
00:17:31,862 --> 00:17:34,724
I think this old Spanish tile come up easier than expected
450
00:17:34,724 --> 00:17:36,413
with a huge win for our timeline.
451
00:17:36,413 --> 00:17:37,931
Thea will be back in just a few weeks,
452
00:17:37,931 --> 00:17:40,034
so we will take every advantage we can get.
453
00:17:40,034 --> 00:17:43,068
We also heard back from our engineer regarding that post in the kitchen.
454
00:17:43,068 --> 00:17:45,413
And as I suspected, it is load bearing.
455
00:17:45,413 --> 00:17:47,827
But Thea is gonna get a much bigger open space,
456
00:17:47,827 --> 00:17:51,172
and we'll just expand that pantry to hide that post giving her a lot more storage.
457
00:17:51,172 --> 00:17:52,310
It's a win, win.
458
00:18:01,517 --> 00:18:03,103
- Hi. - How's it going?
459
00:18:03,103 --> 00:18:05,896
Lisa Kudrow is surprising her cousin and best friend Thea.
460
00:18:05,896 --> 00:18:08,793
Thea does feel like a soul sister, I have to say.
461
00:18:08,793 --> 00:18:11,103
I know she needs a pet-friendly place.
462
00:18:12,551 --> 00:18:13,689
Whoa.
463
00:18:13,689 --> 00:18:15,068
With a beautiful home for herself...
464
00:18:15,068 --> 00:18:16,551
I don't ever use the word blessing.
465
00:18:16,551 --> 00:18:18,034
...and her pet rescue.
466
00:18:18,034 --> 00:18:20,000
But I'm just gonna say it. It's such a blessing.
467
00:18:22,275 --> 00:18:24,413
We're at the end of week one for this renovation.
468
00:18:24,413 --> 00:18:27,034
And with only three and half weeks to turn Thea's condo
469
00:18:27,034 --> 00:18:30,344
into a chic refuge for herself and her beloved pets,
470
00:18:30,344 --> 00:18:33,413
it's not a lot of time, so we're jumping right in.
471
00:18:33,413 --> 00:18:35,862
We're adding recessed lighting that are energy efficient
472
00:18:35,862 --> 00:18:38,724
but will make this space a lot brighter and more inviting.
473
00:18:38,724 --> 00:18:41,517
And Lisa told us also that having tons of storage
474
00:18:41,517 --> 00:18:43,068
is important to Thea.
475
00:18:43,068 --> 00:18:46,103
So we're updating her old shelving unit into a custom closet
476
00:18:46,103 --> 00:18:48,586
that when we're done will feel more like an art installation.
477
00:18:48,586 --> 00:18:50,275
Very stylish and functional.
478
00:18:52,068 --> 00:18:54,862
Lisa also mentioned that Thea loves her woodburning fireplace.
479
00:18:54,862 --> 00:18:56,241
It's something she uses regularly,
480
00:18:56,241 --> 00:18:58,655
so it's kind of dated. It was a little bit bulky.
481
00:18:58,655 --> 00:19:00,034
We're revamping it
482
00:19:00,034 --> 00:19:02,965
and redesigning into a focal point for the entire space.
483
00:19:02,965 --> 00:19:06,310
While the crew gets started on the fire-proof steel frame...
484
00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:07,793
You look nervous.
485
00:19:07,793 --> 00:19:10,724
I'm not even allowed to make these decisions in my own home.
486
00:19:10,724 --> 00:19:12,000
My husband does it.
487
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,344
So I got it in my head that I don't know anything.
488
00:19:14,344 --> 00:19:17,862
Lisa's back to help pick finishes that will not only match Thea's style,
489
00:19:17,862 --> 00:19:20,862
but will also stand up to whatever Thea's pets throw at them.
490
00:19:20,862 --> 00:19:22,344
- Let's do this then. - So I'm kind of...
491
00:19:22,344 --> 00:19:23,586
- ...relying on you. - You're not making any decisions
492
00:19:23,586 --> 00:19:26,310
- I'm just asking you questions about Thea. - Okay.
493
00:19:26,310 --> 00:19:28,413
Does she lean a little more modern?
494
00:19:28,413 --> 00:19:30,137
Does she like a little more traditional?
495
00:19:30,137 --> 00:19:33,310
Does she like, you know, pink and colorful?
496
00:19:33,310 --> 00:19:34,965
- No. - Whoa.
497
00:19:34,965 --> 00:19:36,517
- No, I know, it's crazy-- See-- - I almost fell.
498
00:19:36,517 --> 00:19:38,482
Someone gets mad. That's what happens.
499
00:19:38,482 --> 00:19:41,275
You know, Thea has an eclectic taste,
500
00:19:41,275 --> 00:19:42,931
and it all works.
501
00:19:42,931 --> 00:19:44,931
- All of these... - Yeah.
502
00:19:44,931 --> 00:19:46,068
...are performance fabrics.
503
00:19:46,068 --> 00:19:48,000
- This? - I'm telling you. Look at this.
504
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,172
- It feels like it's... - I know. But watch this.
505
00:19:50,172 --> 00:19:51,413
What?
506
00:19:51,413 --> 00:19:53,793
So if you have any puppy accidents, anything like that,
507
00:19:53,793 --> 00:19:55,137
it just beads right off of it.
508
00:19:55,137 --> 00:19:57,068
- That's it. - Look, it almost looks like pee.
509
00:19:57,068 --> 00:19:59,448
If you have five animals living in the house...
510
00:19:59,448 --> 00:20:00,689
Yeah.
511
00:20:00,689 --> 00:20:02,310
...you want something that will stand up to anything.
512
00:20:02,310 --> 00:20:03,586
It's gotta look beautiful, but it's also gotta last.
513
00:20:03,586 --> 00:20:04,517
- Look at that. - Yes.
514
00:20:04,517 --> 00:20:05,655
She's gonna love that.
515
00:20:05,655 --> 00:20:07,172
That's amazing.
516
00:20:07,172 --> 00:20:09,068
The biggest impact in this unit
517
00:20:09,068 --> 00:20:10,482
- will come from the floors. - Yes.
518
00:20:10,482 --> 00:20:13,000
- So this is actually a luxury vinyl material. - Yeah.
519
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,310
You can see how thick it is and how rigid it is.
520
00:20:15,310 --> 00:20:17,103
- Yeah. - They come in long planks.
521
00:20:17,103 --> 00:20:19,896
This will last to any puppy accidents...
522
00:20:19,896 --> 00:20:21,448
- Yeah. - ...anything it could happen,
523
00:20:21,448 --> 00:20:24,655
- so much more durable than any species of hardwood. - Okay, great.
524
00:20:24,655 --> 00:20:26,620
- And it comes in any number colors. - Yeah.
525
00:20:26,620 --> 00:20:28,034
Oh, this would be pretty.
526
00:20:28,034 --> 00:20:31,517
So it's gonna be sort of contemporary but still warm, right?
527
00:20:31,517 --> 00:20:32,965
Yeah, 'cause you want it to function,
528
00:20:32,965 --> 00:20:34,965
but we also want this place to look beautiful.
529
00:20:34,965 --> 00:20:36,275
- Yeah, yeah. - She deserves it.
530
00:20:36,275 --> 00:20:38,655
- No, and she cares about that. - Yeah.
531
00:20:38,655 --> 00:20:41,310
- So coming in the front door. - Yeah.
532
00:20:41,310 --> 00:20:44,448
I can integrate kind of a cool slat feature coming down
533
00:20:44,448 --> 00:20:45,655
with a built-in bench.
534
00:20:45,655 --> 00:20:47,793
And I was thinking of doing something kind of like that,
535
00:20:47,793 --> 00:20:48,965
- going up the wall. - Oh!
536
00:20:48,965 --> 00:20:51,275
- It'll make it feel purposeful. - Yeah.
537
00:20:51,275 --> 00:20:53,344
But at the same time, it's also giving her functional seating
538
00:20:53,344 --> 00:20:54,793
at the front door to put on shoes or whatever.
539
00:20:54,793 --> 00:20:56,000
Seating's good.
540
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,827
What is seating out here?
541
00:20:57,827 --> 00:20:59,586
Oh, we can add tons of seating out here as well.
542
00:20:59,586 --> 00:21:02,827
In fact, we could even tie the slat features through out here.
543
00:21:02,827 --> 00:21:06,344
We could build kind of a shade structure in the same slats.
544
00:21:06,344 --> 00:21:08,482
Oh, my God. She's gonna love that.
545
00:21:08,482 --> 00:21:10,344
That's so good.
546
00:21:10,344 --> 00:21:13,551
This wood slat canopy bench will offer a cool place to sit
547
00:21:13,551 --> 00:21:14,896
on hot, sunny days
548
00:21:14,896 --> 00:21:18,137
and a modern sophistication to Thea's outdoor space.
549
00:21:18,137 --> 00:21:20,344
This is just gonna be so freshened up,
550
00:21:20,344 --> 00:21:22,482
and I'm so excited for her.
551
00:21:22,482 --> 00:21:25,172
Breath, breath.
552
00:21:25,172 --> 00:21:27,379
Lisa may feel nervous about being so hands on
553
00:21:27,379 --> 00:21:29,137
with Thea's renovation, but she shouldn't.
554
00:21:29,137 --> 00:21:31,172
She knows exactly what her cousin needs.
555
00:21:31,172 --> 00:21:33,379
And that influences useful design features
556
00:21:33,379 --> 00:21:35,034
like the built-in bench for the entry
557
00:21:35,034 --> 00:21:36,586
or maybe the kitchen pantry.
558
00:21:36,586 --> 00:21:39,862
Things that really address her needs while elevating the style of her home.
559
00:21:47,896 --> 00:21:49,413
With dry wall complete,
560
00:21:49,413 --> 00:21:52,206
the painting crew is now giving the interior a light, fresh coat.
561
00:21:52,206 --> 00:21:55,172
And since we can't do anything inside while everything's wet,
562
00:21:55,172 --> 00:21:56,172
Hi, you guys.
563
00:21:56,172 --> 00:21:57,137
- Hey! - How you doing?
564
00:21:57,137 --> 00:21:58,344
What are you playing with?
565
00:21:58,344 --> 00:22:00,482
This is your new relief area.
566
00:22:00,482 --> 00:22:02,758
- Yay. - It's perfect.
567
00:22:02,758 --> 00:22:04,482
We're showing Lisa the new pet pad that we'll be putting in
568
00:22:04,482 --> 00:22:06,137
once the deck gets finished.
569
00:22:06,137 --> 00:22:08,758
So what we're trying to do here is create a little bit of elevation.
570
00:22:08,758 --> 00:22:10,793
- So when the dogs are coming to do their business... - Yeah.
571
00:22:10,793 --> 00:22:12,586
...it's gonna be a nice, soft platform.
572
00:22:12,586 --> 00:22:14,000
- It has good drainage. - Mmm-hmm.
573
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,724
Just pop it down into the holes, and there you go. See.
574
00:22:15,724 --> 00:22:17,275
It's not on the ground.
575
00:22:17,275 --> 00:22:19,137
So there's air. And it's gonna go through,
576
00:22:19,137 --> 00:22:20,586
and that's why it won't smell.
577
00:22:20,586 --> 00:22:22,724
This is such a game changer.
578
00:22:22,724 --> 00:22:24,413
The dogs will wanna be out here now.
579
00:22:24,413 --> 00:22:26,448
If they're going through a rough patch,
580
00:22:26,448 --> 00:22:28,655
you know, if they're on any medication,
581
00:22:28,655 --> 00:22:31,206
it's so much easier to just bring them out here,
582
00:22:31,206 --> 00:22:32,517
and they can go.
583
00:22:32,517 --> 00:22:34,310
But the cool thing too is just mainly, you know, for the dogs
584
00:22:34,310 --> 00:22:36,275
But you can tell that'll drain perfectly.
585
00:22:36,275 --> 00:22:39,103
Oh, yeah, yeah. No, I can't wait. Let's see.
586
00:22:39,103 --> 00:22:41,310
- Well, test it. - Obviously-- Oh! Won't do it. No!
587
00:22:42,241 --> 00:22:44,379
Oh, is it because I'm shy you're here.
588
00:22:44,379 --> 00:22:46,310
- Otherwise... - No problem.
589
00:22:46,310 --> 00:22:48,655
This pee pad is so massive.
590
00:22:48,655 --> 00:22:51,103
You can have like six Saint Bernards on it
591
00:22:51,103 --> 00:22:52,862
and still have some room for Chihuahuas.
592
00:22:52,862 --> 00:22:53,758
- Wow. - Yeah.
593
00:22:53,758 --> 00:22:55,413
This is such a big deal.
594
00:22:55,413 --> 00:22:57,034
Now, that's a puppy pee party.
595
00:23:04,172 --> 00:23:05,482
Now, that the walls are painted,
596
00:23:05,482 --> 00:23:07,448
and the major construction's behind us,
597
00:23:07,448 --> 00:23:09,793
we can start installing Thea's new floors.
598
00:23:09,793 --> 00:23:12,689
We're putting down luxury vinyl in a plank style
599
00:23:12,689 --> 00:23:15,000
just because we want it to look like real hardwood,
600
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,586
but it has to stand up to any pet messes that might happen.
601
00:23:17,586 --> 00:23:19,000
Nice.
602
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,620
And we're gluing it so it won't have any hollow knocking sound.
603
00:23:21,620 --> 00:23:24,275
I've had puppies my whole adult life,
604
00:23:24,275 --> 00:23:27,172
and you have to kind of take the extra steps
605
00:23:27,172 --> 00:23:29,758
- so that it doesn't seriously effect your lifestyle. - Yeah.
606
00:23:29,758 --> 00:23:31,034
And I think the way it was before
607
00:23:31,034 --> 00:23:33,068
it was seriously starting to affect her lifestyle...
608
00:23:33,068 --> 00:23:35,379
- Oh, yeah. - ...because you can't clean up some of those messes.
609
00:23:35,379 --> 00:23:39,724
You know, she is always going to have animals that are on medication.
610
00:23:39,724 --> 00:23:42,068
And she's gonna be able to not worry
611
00:23:42,068 --> 00:23:44,620
about anything getting ruined or the smell lingering.
612
00:23:44,620 --> 00:23:47,482
She can just wipe it up and clean it. It's so much easier.
613
00:23:47,482 --> 00:23:50,931
- So I'll get on your right side if you wanna cut. - Yeah.
614
00:23:50,931 --> 00:23:52,172
Oh, dear God.
615
00:23:52,172 --> 00:23:54,000
So you're gonna hold this nice and strong,
616
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,896
- and then pull it down once it's going. - Okay.
617
00:23:55,896 --> 00:23:59,931
Let's see. Is this the first time I've installed floors? Yes!
618
00:23:59,931 --> 00:24:00,862
Go ahead.
619
00:24:04,103 --> 00:24:07,344
Look, we know Lisa does not have the experience
620
00:24:07,344 --> 00:24:08,275
in construction that we have.
621
00:24:08,275 --> 00:24:09,724
We know that she's a little uncomfortable
622
00:24:09,724 --> 00:24:11,724
- I'll do the same. - Oh, good.
623
00:24:11,724 --> 00:24:13,344
- But she is willing to step up to the plate... - Yeah.
624
00:24:13,344 --> 00:24:14,724
...because this is all for Thea.
625
00:24:14,724 --> 00:24:16,655
So we'll get in here.
626
00:24:16,655 --> 00:24:18,482
That looks good.
627
00:24:18,482 --> 00:24:19,689
Nice.
628
00:24:19,689 --> 00:24:22,620
How cool was it that we were flooring with Phoebe?
629
00:24:22,620 --> 00:24:24,034
- Ooh, that sounds good. - New show.
630
00:24:24,034 --> 00:24:25,517
Give me two new starter boards.
631
00:24:25,517 --> 00:24:27,896
- We're gonna start the next row first. - Okay.
632
00:24:27,896 --> 00:24:30,068
Before you know it, furniture's gonna be in place,
633
00:24:30,068 --> 00:24:32,896
Thea's gonna be back, and all the pups and kittens are gonna be in here too.
634
00:24:32,896 --> 00:24:34,724
Do we style with the pups and kittens?
635
00:24:34,724 --> 00:24:36,172
Are they part of the decor?
636
00:24:36,172 --> 00:24:38,413
I should make them little outfits that match the furniture and decor.
637
00:24:38,413 --> 00:24:39,689
Cute.
638
00:24:51,655 --> 00:24:53,689
We're at the halfway point of this renovation,
639
00:24:53,689 --> 00:24:55,827
and in the thick of transforming Thea's condo
640
00:24:55,827 --> 00:25:00,103
into an indoor, outdoor show piece for her and all the pets she loves.
641
00:25:00,103 --> 00:25:02,448
The built-in bench is coming along.
642
00:25:02,448 --> 00:25:03,965
Once we add the vertical slats,
643
00:25:03,965 --> 00:25:06,379
our entry will be the perfect first impression
644
00:25:06,379 --> 00:25:07,965
for anyone entering Thea's home.
645
00:25:07,965 --> 00:25:10,931
One of the biggest impacts will have on Thea's space
646
00:25:10,931 --> 00:25:12,448
will be her new patio doors.
647
00:25:12,448 --> 00:25:14,896
Replacing these will allow her patio to become
648
00:25:14,896 --> 00:25:17,103
a beautiful extension of her living space.
649
00:25:17,103 --> 00:25:19,413
Caring for animals is Thea's passion,
650
00:25:19,413 --> 00:25:22,931
so we're implementing new maple wood cat shelves.
651
00:25:22,931 --> 00:25:24,793
That will be the perfect way to entertain her feline friends
652
00:25:24,793 --> 00:25:27,793
while adding visual interest to an otherwise boring wall.
653
00:25:27,793 --> 00:25:30,517
And while Drew is dealing with permits for the HOA...
654
00:25:30,517 --> 00:25:31,793
You don't need glasses?
655
00:25:31,793 --> 00:25:34,103
I do need glasses, but I was gonna let you do the drilling.
656
00:25:34,103 --> 00:25:35,068
Oh, no.
657
00:25:35,068 --> 00:25:36,241
...Lisa's back to give me a hand
658
00:25:36,241 --> 00:25:38,068
and help keep our build on schedule.
659
00:25:38,068 --> 00:25:42,137
- We want the edge of this to be right-- - Yeah.
660
00:25:42,137 --> 00:25:44,551
That's what's gonna give us the nice rounded edge in the corners.
661
00:25:44,551 --> 00:25:46,241
So looks pretty darn good.
662
00:25:46,241 --> 00:25:49,896
Listen, I'm afraid of power tools.
663
00:25:49,896 --> 00:25:51,862
- All right, hold it nice and firm. - Yeah.
664
00:25:51,862 --> 00:25:53,241
- And keep it level. - Okay.
665
00:25:53,241 --> 00:25:55,103
- And I'm staying here? - Yep.
666
00:25:55,103 --> 00:25:56,620
It's really daunting.
667
00:25:56,620 --> 00:25:58,517
You know, like, even going through wood,
668
00:25:58,517 --> 00:26:01,172
it's still like breaking it apart piece by piece.
669
00:26:01,172 --> 00:26:03,689
- When it smells like it's burning... - Yeah, stop.
670
00:26:03,689 --> 00:26:05,413
- ...it is burning. So that's-- Yeah. - Stop.
671
00:26:05,413 --> 00:26:06,620
It looks pretty darn good.
672
00:26:06,620 --> 00:26:08,241
All right, go for it.
673
00:26:08,241 --> 00:26:11,344
But with the way I see it, is, yeah, I'm trying
674
00:26:11,344 --> 00:26:12,724
because it's for Thea.
675
00:26:12,724 --> 00:26:14,137
- Wow. - Great.
676
00:26:14,137 --> 00:26:15,241
Amazing.
677
00:26:15,241 --> 00:26:17,931
Can we talk about the shelves, the floaty shelves?
678
00:26:17,931 --> 00:26:20,931
It's maple wood and sleek,
679
00:26:20,931 --> 00:26:25,103
and there are these little holes in them for the cats to play with.
680
00:26:25,103 --> 00:26:28,241
Look how beautiful that is!
681
00:26:28,241 --> 00:26:30,482
- Isn't that cool? - Oh, my God.
682
00:26:30,482 --> 00:26:32,275
Come on, that's fantastic.
683
00:26:34,137 --> 00:26:37,241
And even if, guess what, if the cats don't play with,
684
00:26:37,241 --> 00:26:38,448
they're gorgeous shelves.
685
00:26:38,448 --> 00:26:41,517
- Ready for this? - Yeah, this is the big one.
686
00:26:41,517 --> 00:26:43,482
It doesn't matter. They're for everything.
687
00:26:46,275 --> 00:26:47,172
- Wow! - Is that cool, or what?
688
00:26:47,172 --> 00:26:50,034
Oh, my God. It looks so good!
689
00:26:50,034 --> 00:26:53,413
Hearing Lisa's oohs and ahs is very comforting for me.
690
00:26:53,413 --> 00:26:55,517
That's fantastic.
691
00:26:55,517 --> 00:26:57,620
She knows Thea better than anyone,
692
00:26:57,620 --> 00:26:59,689
so if she's blown away with how the shelves look,
693
00:26:59,689 --> 00:27:01,344
then I know we're on the right track.
694
00:27:09,413 --> 00:27:10,896
We're coming to the end of week two,
695
00:27:10,896 --> 00:27:12,862
and our crews are working hard inside and out
696
00:27:12,862 --> 00:27:14,931
to get this place finished for Thea's return.
697
00:27:14,931 --> 00:27:17,413
And now that the focal fireplace has its new sheetrock,
698
00:27:17,413 --> 00:27:19,551
we're applying a posh plaster finish
699
00:27:19,551 --> 00:27:22,551
while outside we're having the cracked and chipped patio
700
00:27:22,551 --> 00:27:24,482
with weather proof seamless concrete
701
00:27:24,482 --> 00:27:27,379
that will be the perfect foundation for Thea's outdoor oasis.
702
00:27:27,379 --> 00:27:29,068
And while the concrete dries,
703
00:27:29,068 --> 00:27:33,620
Jonathan and I are shopping for furniture and pet-friendly performance fabrics.
704
00:27:33,620 --> 00:27:38,517
There's so much opportunity to make this space feel fresh, and clean, and bright,
705
00:27:38,517 --> 00:27:39,724
but still have that function.
706
00:27:39,724 --> 00:27:42,517
It has to stand up, but it has to look good.
707
00:27:42,517 --> 00:27:46,034
So when the residents go in, they go
708
00:27:46,034 --> 00:27:47,724
Oh, reow.
709
00:27:51,620 --> 00:27:53,655
- Hey, Maurishka. - Hey, guys.
710
00:27:53,655 --> 00:27:57,034
We have a house that has more cats and dogs than humans in it.
711
00:27:57,034 --> 00:27:59,551
So we need some performance fabric. That's a must.
712
00:27:59,551 --> 00:28:01,896
As you know, we can super upholster
713
00:28:01,896 --> 00:28:03,724
many of the pieces we have on the floor,
714
00:28:03,724 --> 00:28:05,137
so we can tailor to you.
715
00:28:05,137 --> 00:28:06,931
All right, I see a lot of great stuff.
716
00:28:06,931 --> 00:28:08,103
Do you mind if we just walk around?
717
00:28:08,103 --> 00:28:09,965
Nope. We've pulled some fabrics in the back for you.
718
00:28:09,965 --> 00:28:11,482
- Awesome. Thanks. - We'll holler if we need you.
719
00:28:11,482 --> 00:28:14,586
What we need for our sofas and our accent chair is a durable material.
720
00:28:14,586 --> 00:28:16,413
The one thing I just don't want
721
00:28:16,413 --> 00:28:19,551
is performance fabric that feels like it has that polyester sheen,
722
00:28:19,551 --> 00:28:22,965
something that just it's a nice, relaxed feel to it, more natural.
723
00:28:22,965 --> 00:28:25,206
I'd be okay with like almost like a velvet finish 'cause--
724
00:28:25,206 --> 00:28:26,724
I know. So this is more of a linen.
725
00:28:26,724 --> 00:28:28,241
- Oh, feel-- Yeah. - It's nice though.
726
00:28:28,241 --> 00:28:30,586
We also love the idea of having a sofa slipcover
727
00:28:30,586 --> 00:28:32,758
because that's something she can toss in the wash,
728
00:28:32,758 --> 00:28:35,137
and then she can bring it back out looking like new afterwards.
729
00:28:35,137 --> 00:28:38,931
I just feel like knowing that we've got, you know, the wood tones on the floor
730
00:28:38,931 --> 00:28:40,206
we've got a lot going on.
731
00:28:40,206 --> 00:28:41,413
We've even got some of the detail work
732
00:28:41,413 --> 00:28:43,310
with the woodwork on the walls and things like that.
733
00:28:43,310 --> 00:28:46,379
I think kind of just keeping the whole vibe fresh and light.
734
00:28:46,379 --> 00:28:49,551
I love that these just look extremely stylish and soft.
735
00:28:49,551 --> 00:28:51,275
Look how soft that is.
736
00:28:51,275 --> 00:28:52,965
What do you think of that for the chair?
737
00:28:52,965 --> 00:28:56,310
Knowing that they've tested this with spilling wine, and dirt, and everything else,
738
00:28:56,310 --> 00:29:00,068
I'm pretty sure that a little bit of mess from a puppy or a kitten
739
00:29:00,068 --> 00:29:01,068
- would wipe off. - Yeah.
740
00:29:01,068 --> 00:29:02,862
Why don't we do the chairs then in that
741
00:29:02,862 --> 00:29:05,034
and because the sofa's a larger surface area,
742
00:29:05,034 --> 00:29:09,000
I would say we do either this guy or this guy.
743
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,448
These colors are a great foundation for Thea's living room
744
00:29:11,448 --> 00:29:13,517
and also very fashion forward.
745
00:29:13,517 --> 00:29:15,689
I mean, these are not your grandma's old performance fabrics.
746
00:29:15,689 --> 00:29:18,413
This is high-end style with state- of-the-art protection.
747
00:29:18,413 --> 00:29:19,689
This is your main.
748
00:29:19,689 --> 00:29:21,000
I think it's gonna be beautiful, and it'll keep it bright.
749
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,034
I'll let Maurishka know.
750
00:29:22,034 --> 00:29:23,000
Awesome.
751
00:29:27,931 --> 00:29:30,965
This is absolutely going to change Thea's life.
752
00:29:30,965 --> 00:29:31,862
When are you gonna be home?
753
00:29:31,862 --> 00:29:34,137
- I'm, like, 7 minutes. - Bye.
754
00:29:34,137 --> 00:29:36,034
Thea has no idea that Jonathan and I are involved.
755
00:29:36,034 --> 00:29:38,034
She has no idea this place has been renovated.
756
00:29:38,034 --> 00:29:38,965
This is the moment.
757
00:29:38,965 --> 00:29:41,586
And-- Oh, my God!
758
00:29:41,586 --> 00:29:43,034
Yeah, who's house is this?
759
00:29:50,724 --> 00:29:51,793
We're less than a week away
760
00:29:51,793 --> 00:29:54,068
from Lisa Kudrow's cousin Thea returning home.
761
00:29:54,068 --> 00:29:55,931
And we're down to the final stretch.
762
00:29:55,931 --> 00:29:57,620
So there's no time to slow down.
763
00:29:57,620 --> 00:30:00,896
We're outfitting the kitchen pantry with floor to ceiling shelving
764
00:30:00,896 --> 00:30:02,517
to maximize storage,
765
00:30:02,517 --> 00:30:05,586
something that Lisa has said time and time again as a must for Thea.
766
00:30:05,586 --> 00:30:07,413
Round the outside of the pantry
767
00:30:07,413 --> 00:30:09,517
we're cladding the wall with wooden slats.
768
00:30:09,517 --> 00:30:12,103
It's something to add some immediate warmth and sophistication
769
00:30:12,103 --> 00:30:13,793
as you enter Thea's home.
770
00:30:13,793 --> 00:30:17,206
We're also customizing this new closet for Thea's vintage dresses
771
00:30:17,206 --> 00:30:20,068
by transforming the decorative dress screen we found
772
00:30:20,068 --> 00:30:22,517
and repurposing it into a one-of-a-kind doors.
773
00:30:22,517 --> 00:30:25,275
With the clock ticking and Jonathan out picking up hardware
774
00:30:25,275 --> 00:30:26,482
for the patio canopy bench,
775
00:30:26,482 --> 00:30:28,310
Lisa and I need to push forward
776
00:30:28,310 --> 00:30:30,310
on Thea's newly rebuilt fireplace.
777
00:30:30,310 --> 00:30:31,620
They're getting multiple coats too,
778
00:30:31,620 --> 00:30:34,103
so we don't have to worry about it being perfect.
779
00:30:34,103 --> 00:30:35,137
It's a Roman clay finish.
780
00:30:35,137 --> 00:30:36,068
I love the look of it.
781
00:30:36,068 --> 00:30:38,275
It's adding a bit of class, some style.
782
00:30:38,275 --> 00:30:39,620
We don't want a huge mess of chunks,
783
00:30:39,620 --> 00:30:41,586
but we wanna see a little bit of that texture.
784
00:30:41,586 --> 00:30:43,034
This is fun though.
785
00:30:43,034 --> 00:30:45,379
Yeah. Such a dramatic difference from before, right?
786
00:30:45,379 --> 00:30:46,482
Oh, my God.
787
00:30:46,482 --> 00:30:47,689
And it's gonna look amazing
788
00:30:47,689 --> 00:30:49,137
up against everything else we have in here.
789
00:30:49,137 --> 00:30:51,241
We're gonna have some nice pops of color and everything throughout.
790
00:30:51,241 --> 00:30:53,103
The new fireplace is fantastic.
791
00:30:53,103 --> 00:30:55,448
It's still modern but earthy.
792
00:30:55,448 --> 00:30:58,827
She's gonna be so blown away by everything.
793
00:30:58,827 --> 00:31:00,413
It's gonna be good.
794
00:31:00,413 --> 00:31:04,551
It's gonna be years before she even notices how imperfectly I did this.
795
00:31:04,551 --> 00:31:07,862
The imperfection is perfection.
796
00:31:09,586 --> 00:31:12,586
Our goal is to lean into a sleek, eclectic look that Thea will love.
797
00:31:15,241 --> 00:31:17,896
Now, that the newly re-sealed concrete floor has dried,
798
00:31:17,896 --> 00:31:20,551
Jonathan has decided to grace us with his presence.
799
00:31:20,551 --> 00:31:22,000
I am impressed by the way.
800
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:23,379
I leave for a little bit, and I come back,
801
00:31:23,379 --> 00:31:25,068
and you guys knocked off so much work.
802
00:31:25,068 --> 00:31:26,172
- For a little bit. - A little bit.
803
00:31:26,172 --> 00:31:27,827
By the way, you were gone so long
804
00:31:27,827 --> 00:31:29,758
I almost forgot what you looked like.
805
00:31:29,758 --> 00:31:31,689
- Except, I had a reference. - Yeah.
806
00:31:31,689 --> 00:31:32,896
A hairier reference.
807
00:31:32,896 --> 00:31:35,034
This is such a nice, big space.
808
00:31:35,034 --> 00:31:38,137
- That she had no access to. - Exactly.
809
00:31:38,137 --> 00:31:40,482
'Cause there was nothing out here.
810
00:31:40,482 --> 00:31:42,758
When you think before, it did feel like a wasteland.
811
00:31:42,758 --> 00:31:46,896
But, now it actually feels like a beautiful spot she'd want to hang out.
812
00:31:46,896 --> 00:31:49,551
Yeah. If she didn't have this, she would never come out here.
813
00:31:49,551 --> 00:31:52,413
- Well, exactly. - She can be out here and shaded.
814
00:31:52,413 --> 00:31:54,655
- And it's pretty. - Yeah, it's pretty.
815
00:31:54,655 --> 00:31:56,758
This is the right kind of shade to throw at somebody.
816
00:31:56,758 --> 00:31:59,724
It's just also gonna look so beautiful from inside.
817
00:31:59,724 --> 00:32:02,620
When you look out and there's this beautiful structure,
818
00:32:02,620 --> 00:32:04,551
that it's just I'm very excited.
819
00:32:04,551 --> 00:32:05,758
She's gonna love it.
820
00:32:05,758 --> 00:32:08,620
- Wood me. More wood. - Okay.
821
00:32:09,344 --> 00:32:12,137
It use to be a devastation.
822
00:32:12,137 --> 00:32:15,482
Now it's a destination.
823
00:32:15,482 --> 00:32:18,551
We are down to the wire and we have our entire team with us
824
00:32:18,551 --> 00:32:20,655
to get this job done on schedule.
825
00:32:20,655 --> 00:32:23,413
Installing new doors, that actually open.
826
00:32:23,413 --> 00:32:26,793
Means letting out pets for bathroom break or hanging out with friends on a warm evening
827
00:32:26,793 --> 00:32:28,275
is now totally doable.
828
00:32:28,275 --> 00:32:30,413
Not to mention on hot days that pergola
829
00:32:30,413 --> 00:32:32,551
can keep that California sun at bay.
830
00:32:32,551 --> 00:32:35,172
As she Zen's out on her new built-in bench.
831
00:32:35,172 --> 00:32:38,241
And, of course, inside it's not just the obvious changes.
832
00:32:38,241 --> 00:32:40,586
But the details that actually make the biggest difference,
833
00:32:40,586 --> 00:32:42,448
Everything we've done in Thea's home
834
00:32:42,448 --> 00:32:44,655
has been designed to make her life better.
835
00:32:44,655 --> 00:32:48,965
Thea's had a really rough go of it from the loss of her parents
836
00:32:48,965 --> 00:32:51,241
to all the animals who she's rescued.
837
00:32:51,241 --> 00:32:53,000
Thea has such a big heart.
838
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,655
I think this is a good chance for us to give her a home that is great for the animals
839
00:32:55,655 --> 00:32:56,931
but also, really great for her.
840
00:33:09,413 --> 00:33:13,034
Almost broke the window, but, I think we're good. No, no, I didn't.
841
00:33:13,034 --> 00:33:15,620
Thea comes home in less than 24 hours.
842
00:33:15,620 --> 00:33:18,517
So, Lisa's here to help us out with all the last minute details.
843
00:33:18,517 --> 00:33:20,689
- Wait, can this be like that? - Yeah.
844
00:33:20,689 --> 00:33:22,482
- Oh my gosh, so cute. - Yeah.
845
00:33:22,482 --> 00:33:24,275
People places and puppy places.
846
00:33:24,275 --> 00:33:25,551
- I love it. - Oh, my God.
847
00:33:25,551 --> 00:33:27,241
Thea's never seen the living room look like this.
848
00:33:27,241 --> 00:33:31,172
It's stylist, it's beautiful. It looks comfortable. It's very functional.
849
00:33:31,172 --> 00:33:32,620
This is what she's always wanted.
850
00:33:32,620 --> 00:33:36,517
TV night is where I sit here, oh, hey, this is great.
851
00:33:36,517 --> 00:33:39,758
This is so beautiful and sleek.
852
00:33:39,758 --> 00:33:42,620
And modern, but, earthy.
853
00:33:42,620 --> 00:33:45,620
And that really fits the bill for her.
854
00:33:45,620 --> 00:33:48,896
This is going to absolutely change Thea's life.
855
00:33:49,827 --> 00:33:52,275
Well... We got it.
856
00:33:52,275 --> 00:33:53,551
- Yeah. - We got it.
857
00:33:53,551 --> 00:33:55,689
- We got it? - Was that good enough? Should I do it again?
858
00:33:56,310 --> 00:33:57,862
I know what you're doing.
859
00:33:57,862 --> 00:33:59,965
- Well, I got it. - You got it!
860
00:33:59,965 --> 00:34:01,931
You got it.
861
00:34:01,931 --> 00:34:04,206
You think it was too much? That I got her to quote the comeback?
862
00:34:04,206 --> 00:34:05,620
Yeah, I got it.
863
00:34:05,620 --> 00:34:09,275
She did get it. We got it. I think Thea is gonna love it.
864
00:34:20,379 --> 00:34:21,793
- Hi. - Hey.
865
00:34:21,793 --> 00:34:24,896
- How's your trip? - Um, I'm not not tired.
866
00:34:24,896 --> 00:34:26,862
- It was good. - That's great.
867
00:34:26,862 --> 00:34:30,103
All right, I'm supposed to... I know I'm supposed to bring dog food...
868
00:34:30,862 --> 00:34:32,206
for you, I have it.
869
00:34:32,206 --> 00:34:36,379
But, when are you gonna be home? And then I can have it here.
870
00:34:36,379 --> 00:34:38,689
- There. - I'm like seven minutes.
871
00:34:38,689 --> 00:34:41,931
All right. Well, I'll be there right after you get there.
872
00:34:41,931 --> 00:34:43,344
- Okay. - I know. Sorry!
873
00:34:43,344 --> 00:34:45,448
I didn't do it before. I'm sorry!
874
00:34:45,448 --> 00:34:48,034
- That's okay. But, you look pretty. - You look beautiful.
875
00:34:48,034 --> 00:34:49,689
- Seven minutes. - Okay.
876
00:34:49,689 --> 00:34:51,034
See you in 10, bye.
877
00:34:51,034 --> 00:34:54,034
Bye.
878
00:34:54,034 --> 00:34:57,103
Oh, so it's like Jonathan. Says, seven minutes, but it's actually 10 or 20.
879
00:34:57,103 --> 00:34:58,931
We call that right Jon time.
880
00:34:58,931 --> 00:35:01,344
Three and a half weeks have flown by.
881
00:35:01,344 --> 00:35:03,275
Literally feels like we just started this yesterday.
882
00:35:03,275 --> 00:35:05,000
Oh, my God!
883
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,413
- Sounds good. - I'm so excited.
884
00:35:06,413 --> 00:35:10,172
And now, Thea will be walking in, and the place...
885
00:35:10,172 --> 00:35:12,068
knock on, cat wood shelves,
886
00:35:12,068 --> 00:35:13,620
- I think is ready. - It looks good.
887
00:35:13,620 --> 00:35:16,482
Thea has been away on the East Coast but now she's coming home.
888
00:35:16,482 --> 00:35:18,655
And Thea has no idea that Jonathan and I are involved,
889
00:35:18,655 --> 00:35:20,758
she has no idea this place has been renovated.
890
00:35:21,793 --> 00:35:22,620
Oh, my God.
891
00:35:23,482 --> 00:35:24,827
Oh, my God.
892
00:35:24,827 --> 00:35:27,655
All she thinks, is that Lisa is bringing over some dog food.
893
00:35:27,655 --> 00:35:29,931
- Um... Hello? - Hello.
894
00:35:29,931 --> 00:35:32,758
Oh, my God!
895
00:35:32,758 --> 00:35:34,827
What's happening? Who's house is this?
896
00:35:34,827 --> 00:35:37,068
Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
897
00:35:37,068 --> 00:35:39,586
Whoa. Oh, my God!
898
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,241
- Um... Hello? - Hello.
899
00:35:53,241 --> 00:35:55,862
Oh, my God!
900
00:35:55,862 --> 00:35:58,172
What's happening? Who's house is this?
901
00:35:58,172 --> 00:36:02,862
I don't understand what's happening. What is happening?
902
00:36:02,862 --> 00:36:05,103
- Whoa. Oh, my God! - I know, look.
903
00:36:05,103 --> 00:36:07,206
- Come here, look. - Wait. I need a new phrase.
904
00:36:07,206 --> 00:36:09,275
Um, holy heck!
905
00:36:09,275 --> 00:36:11,965
I did more.
906
00:36:13,137 --> 00:36:15,724
- It's so beautiful. - Yeah.
907
00:36:15,724 --> 00:36:17,862
I did some of it myself.
908
00:36:17,862 --> 00:36:19,275
And some of it with...
909
00:36:19,275 --> 00:36:20,206
- others - A little help.
910
00:36:20,206 --> 00:36:21,482
- Well hello. - Yay!
911
00:36:21,482 --> 00:36:23,655
Oh, my God!
912
00:36:23,655 --> 00:36:25,413
Oh, please move in. Please move in.
913
00:36:25,413 --> 00:36:27,965
I don't recognize what area I'm looking at.
914
00:36:27,965 --> 00:36:30,275
Because, it certainly doesn't look like mine.
915
00:36:30,275 --> 00:36:31,965
It's a wash over you situation.
916
00:36:31,965 --> 00:36:33,827
You, kinda, have to pull the pieces together
917
00:36:33,827 --> 00:36:36,379
and understand what's happening because it's surreal.
918
00:36:36,379 --> 00:36:39,724
- What'd you think? - I love it so, so much!
919
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,137
When you look at this and you see the new aesthetic,
920
00:36:48,137 --> 00:36:49,413
what's running through your mind?
921
00:36:49,413 --> 00:36:51,275
The flo... I...
922
00:36:51,275 --> 00:36:53,137
daba, zee.
923
00:36:53,137 --> 00:36:54,482
I don't know.
924
00:36:54,482 --> 00:36:58,448
Wow! This is a really airy, light, beautiful space.
925
00:36:58,448 --> 00:37:01,379
Took me a long time to get there, but, that's what I was thinking.
926
00:37:01,379 --> 00:37:04,000
The floor was such an eye sore.
927
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:05,379
But, look what you did.
928
00:37:05,379 --> 00:37:08,724
I can't believe it. I honestly cannot believe it.
929
00:37:08,724 --> 00:37:10,551
And they're durable. They're extremely durable.
930
00:37:10,551 --> 00:37:12,310
So, the pets can come in here
931
00:37:12,310 --> 00:37:14,379
and they can scratch and do whatever they want, they're not gonna damage it.
932
00:37:14,379 --> 00:37:17,689
Wow, it's just so much space.
933
00:37:17,689 --> 00:37:19,000
You know why it feels more spacious?
934
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,517
You'd already done some great work back here.
935
00:37:21,517 --> 00:37:24,310
So we decided to just open it up a little bit.
936
00:37:24,310 --> 00:37:26,862
- And get some flow in this place. - Oh, wow!
937
00:37:26,862 --> 00:37:30,241
- That useless wall gone. - Take a peek here.
938
00:37:30,241 --> 00:37:34,448
- We open this up and gave you a massive pantry. - This is beautiful.
939
00:37:34,448 --> 00:37:36,034
I don't remember what this was before.
940
00:37:36,034 --> 00:37:37,655
There was not that.
941
00:37:37,655 --> 00:37:39,724
It's so beautiful. I'm sorry.
942
00:37:40,482 --> 00:37:41,896
So good.
943
00:37:41,896 --> 00:37:43,827
- That pantry. - Yeah. How about a walk-in pantry?
944
00:37:43,827 --> 00:37:45,172
- How about that? - Wow!
945
00:37:45,172 --> 00:37:46,793
How about that didn't exist before today.
946
00:37:46,793 --> 00:37:49,448
You wanna have a space where pets can be pets.
947
00:37:49,448 --> 00:37:51,275
And sometimes accidents happen.
948
00:37:51,275 --> 00:37:54,000
Well, everything in the renovation we tried to design it so
949
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,206
that you're not gonna have a problem.
950
00:37:56,206 --> 00:37:58,275
Clean up's not a problem with the vinyl floors.
951
00:37:58,275 --> 00:38:01,275
Even your sofa and the chairs, their performance fabrics.
952
00:38:01,275 --> 00:38:05,103
So, they'll stand up to any spills, accidents, scuffs.
953
00:38:05,103 --> 00:38:06,620
- What? - Yeah.
954
00:38:06,620 --> 00:38:08,896
Come on in and try out your new living space.
955
00:38:08,896 --> 00:38:10,586
This was custom made just for you.
956
00:38:10,586 --> 00:38:11,862
- Was it really? - Yeah.
957
00:38:11,862 --> 00:38:14,000
I'm... I'm gobsmacked.
958
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:15,275
I don't know. Look at that.
959
00:38:15,275 --> 00:38:17,206
- Look at that. - I didn't even have a chance to look at that.
960
00:38:17,206 --> 00:38:19,206
- Isn't it beautiful. - Yes.
961
00:38:19,206 --> 00:38:22,689
This, I thought, was so fantastic when we saw the music here.
962
00:38:22,689 --> 00:38:25,275
And so, making sure we can still showcase that was important
963
00:38:25,275 --> 00:38:26,965
that's why we thought that would be great.
964
00:38:26,965 --> 00:38:29,103
I'm so glad that Dad's part of it. That he's here.
965
00:38:29,103 --> 00:38:31,068
And, I'm wearing my mom's pearls. So, they're both here.
966
00:38:31,068 --> 00:38:32,448
Oh, that's good.
967
00:38:32,448 --> 00:38:34,241
That is really beautiful.
968
00:38:34,241 --> 00:38:37,379
Take a stroll over here. Look at something that Lisa said you would love.
969
00:38:37,379 --> 00:38:39,896
Something that feels eclectic. Something that feels unique.
970
00:38:39,896 --> 00:38:41,413
Those doors are beautiful.
971
00:38:41,413 --> 00:38:43,379
You open 'em like that.
972
00:38:43,379 --> 00:38:44,758
And then...
973
00:38:44,758 --> 00:38:47,034
Oh! Ooh!
974
00:38:47,034 --> 00:38:50,034
- Showcase your gorgeous vintage clothes. - It looks so good!
975
00:38:50,034 --> 00:38:54,931
Those closet doors are absolutely sensational.
976
00:38:54,931 --> 00:38:56,241
It's gorgeous.
977
00:38:56,241 --> 00:38:58,758
And knowing that you've got some feline friends,
978
00:38:58,758 --> 00:39:02,172
look at the little extra detail we added in these shelves.
979
00:39:02,172 --> 00:39:04,137
I mean, they will love this, and this,
980
00:39:04,137 --> 00:39:06,310
but, this is a gold mine.
981
00:39:06,310 --> 00:39:08,310
- The cats will be thrilled. - Eat that grass,
982
00:39:08,310 --> 00:39:10,827
throw up on the easy clean floor.
983
00:39:10,827 --> 00:39:13,137
- Or a rug. - That's right. It won't bother me now.
984
00:39:13,758 --> 00:39:15,310
This is just gorgeous.
985
00:39:15,310 --> 00:39:16,862
That's a plaster finish?
986
00:39:16,862 --> 00:39:19,344
Yeah, it's a type of paint. But, it gives it that venetian plaster look.
987
00:39:19,344 --> 00:39:22,931
And so, when it's finished, the texture on it, it just adds a little more interest.
988
00:39:22,931 --> 00:39:24,758
It ate so far into the room,
989
00:39:24,758 --> 00:39:27,793
especially with how you were using the space too with the extra pieces,
990
00:39:27,793 --> 00:39:29,482
this is just a little more streamline.
991
00:39:29,482 --> 00:39:31,931
And now that fireplace looks like a feature.
992
00:39:31,931 --> 00:39:34,310
It's go-o-o-orgeous.
993
00:39:34,310 --> 00:39:35,965
It's gorgeous.
994
00:39:35,965 --> 00:39:39,448
It's Christmas morning times one thousand million trillion.
995
00:39:41,827 --> 00:39:44,000
You know, Thea, you couldn't redo it.
996
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,827
You couldn't do everything you wanted to do to it.
997
00:39:46,827 --> 00:39:51,068
And then you keep taking on these like these really wonderful animals.
998
00:39:51,068 --> 00:39:53,103
That have special needs and thigs.
999
00:39:53,103 --> 00:39:54,655
And you make 'em really happy.
1000
00:39:54,655 --> 00:39:58,689
Your last four years are like one thing after another.
1001
00:39:58,689 --> 00:40:02,310
It's been really hard. And I can't believe how you've coped.
1002
00:40:02,310 --> 00:40:03,931
Unbelievably.
1003
00:40:03,931 --> 00:40:06,793
And I know you've wanted to update your place.
1004
00:40:06,793 --> 00:40:09,068
But, there's medical bills.
1005
00:40:09,068 --> 00:40:10,793
And then all the travelling.
1006
00:40:10,793 --> 00:40:12,275
So, it's your turn.
1007
00:40:12,275 --> 00:40:13,827
- It's really good. - Time for something good.
1008
00:40:15,896 --> 00:40:20,068
Going through life changing events, solo,
1009
00:40:20,068 --> 00:40:22,758
can be taxing and trying.
1010
00:40:22,758 --> 00:40:26,448
And sometimes you feel like you're your own island.
1011
00:40:26,448 --> 00:40:29,413
So, when something like this happens.
1012
00:40:29,413 --> 00:40:31,724
you realize how lucky you are.
1013
00:40:31,724 --> 00:40:33,068
How you are not alone.
1014
00:40:33,068 --> 00:40:34,655
How someone is there for you.
1015
00:40:34,655 --> 00:40:38,344
And all of that is unbelievably gracious.
1016
00:40:38,344 --> 00:40:41,793
- And I am unbelievably grateful. - Oh.
1017
00:40:43,655 --> 00:40:46,793
- What'd you think? - Wow!
1018
00:40:46,793 --> 00:40:49,068
The most pressure was on us for that outdoor space.
1019
00:40:49,068 --> 00:40:52,482
- 'Cause it was terrible before. - Wow!
1020
00:40:52,482 --> 00:40:54,172
Wow!
1021
00:40:54,172 --> 00:40:56,965
- And she loves it! - Oh, I know, the door works.
1022
00:40:56,965 --> 00:40:58,586
It's almost like I have no vocabulary.
1023
00:40:58,586 --> 00:41:00,655
I promise you, I know words.
1024
00:41:00,655 --> 00:41:03,241
But, I don't know what words to use right now.
1025
00:41:05,724 --> 00:41:08,172
You have a giant pet relief area.
1026
00:41:08,172 --> 00:41:10,206
And it does drain directly out back there,
1027
00:41:10,206 --> 00:41:12,034
so, you just hose it down, you're good to go.
1028
00:41:12,034 --> 00:41:15,206
Do you know how much Gorda, if she wasn't terrified of men,
1029
00:41:15,206 --> 00:41:17,241
would thank you for that.
1030
00:41:17,241 --> 00:41:20,206
Gorda is the most abused of my animals.
1031
00:41:20,206 --> 00:41:23,172
The fact that I could slide open a door
1032
00:41:23,172 --> 00:41:26,482
and have her go to a specific pee spot.
1033
00:41:26,482 --> 00:41:29,965
She will be so happy, I am thrilled.
1034
00:41:29,965 --> 00:41:31,517
- Look at this. Can I sit - Yeah.
1035
00:41:31,517 --> 00:41:33,344
It's gorgeous.
1036
00:41:33,344 --> 00:41:34,655
Well, you look at this, for example,
1037
00:41:34,655 --> 00:41:37,172
we wanted to give you bit of a pergola structure here
1038
00:41:37,172 --> 00:41:38,482
a little bit of a shade structure.
1039
00:41:38,482 --> 00:41:39,965
- You have the nice bench. - It's so beautiful.
1040
00:41:39,965 --> 00:41:42,793
- The... This. This! - I know.
1041
00:41:42,793 --> 00:41:44,689
This coating on here is
1042
00:41:44,689 --> 00:41:48,034
not only gonna stand up, again, to the wear and tear of pets.
1043
00:41:48,034 --> 00:41:50,689
But, you're not gonna have any moisture issues, cracking issues.
1044
00:41:50,689 --> 00:41:52,068
'Cause when we did the brand-new door,
1045
00:41:52,068 --> 00:41:53,862
we also put a new sill underneath it.
1046
00:41:53,862 --> 00:41:55,896
So that all of this is water proof.
1047
00:41:55,896 --> 00:41:57,758
And it opens so beautifully.
1048
00:41:57,758 --> 00:41:59,689
It's really indoor/outdoor living.
1049
00:41:59,689 --> 00:42:03,896
I can see Thea just lounging outside enjoying a glass of wine.
1050
00:42:03,896 --> 00:42:06,137
All the pups just playing out here in the back.
1051
00:42:06,137 --> 00:42:08,413
This is gonna transform how she uses her home.
1052
00:42:08,413 --> 00:42:10,931
- Do you think that Lisa got it right? - 100%.
1053
00:42:10,931 --> 00:42:11,965
1,000%.
1054
00:42:11,965 --> 00:42:14,965
She sort of elevated what my sense of style is.
1055
00:42:14,965 --> 00:42:18,068
Without me really knowing that that was my elevated sense of style.
1056
00:42:18,068 --> 00:42:20,310
- That's nice. - You got more design chops than you thought.
1057
00:42:20,310 --> 00:42:22,034
Well...
1058
00:42:22,034 --> 00:42:24,482
You can tell it meant so much to Thea to see
1059
00:42:24,482 --> 00:42:27,068
that Lisa would even think of her for something like this.
1060
00:42:27,068 --> 00:42:28,448
Sadie come here!
1061
00:42:28,448 --> 00:42:30,724
Who's this! Look at this!
1062
00:42:30,724 --> 00:42:32,551
Oh, she's going straight to the pet relief area.
1063
00:42:32,551 --> 00:42:34,482
Yay! She's going outside.
1064
00:42:34,482 --> 00:42:35,896
Sadie's got the right idea.
1065
00:42:35,896 --> 00:42:38,103
As a dog dad, it was extra special
1066
00:42:38,103 --> 00:42:40,586
that we could do something for all the animals too.
1067
00:42:40,586 --> 00:42:42,827
- Whoo! - Thea, to you!
1068
00:42:42,827 --> 00:42:46,275
If I haven't said "thank you" 450,000 times.
1069
00:42:46,275 --> 00:42:49,103
I will say it 750,000 more times.
1070
00:42:49,103 --> 00:42:52,206
All of you. Thank all of you for my beautiful, beautiful, beautiful house.
1071
00:42:52,206 --> 00:42:54,517
But, Lisa, thank you for initiating house beauty.
1072
00:42:54,517 --> 00:42:55,517
All right.
1073
00:42:55,517 --> 00:42:57,793
- Course I thought of you. - All goes to Lisa.
1074
00:42:57,793 --> 00:42:59,344
- I love you. - Love you.
1075
00:43:00,655 --> 00:43:02,551
To Sadie!
1076
00:43:02,551 --> 00:43:03,862
We all live to serve our pets.
1077
00:43:05,206 --> 00:43:07,172
- Who wants to go for a walk? - Oh!
1077
00:43:08,305 --> 00:44:08,616
