    Rather than competing first for a budget allowance, each team is competing to see how many days they get the extra help. The labor competition involves making an entire breakfast using the same kind of tools they use in their renovations: making juice with a drill, cutting toast with a miter saw and jellying it with a paint roller, cutting grapes with pruning shears and making egg salad with a hammer. The team that completes breakfast the fastest gets help for three days, while the second place team gets help for two days and the third place team one day. Once the labor competition is over, the helpers are brought out. To the teams¿ utter surprise, the help turns out to be none other than Katie, Joey and Cindy¿s mothers. During the renovations, the guys are offered an ¿escape¿ to go play paintball.

While there, they get to experience everything from kickboxing lessons to rock climbing. And one lucky team will get pampered with some much-needed massage therapy. Once back at home, it's time for the teams to complete their kitchens. Katie & Adam realize their refrigerator won't fit in the door, so they come up with an amusing solution. Bill & Cindy, who thought their plumbing problems were over, find the pipes in their ceiling are leaking. And Joey & Rebecca don't know what to do with a kitchen island that has turned out much larger than they expected. They affectionately dub it ""Greenland.""

    Before beginning work on their back yards, the teams first have to compete for their budgets in a Newlywed Game-style session.

If a team member gets an answer wrong, he/she must dive into a dirty pool to retrieve a paint can lid that tells them if they are ""Still Breathing"" or ""Dead in the Water."" The team able to stay alive longest gets the best budget, $7,500. The second-place team gets $6,500, while the third-place team gets $5,000. Once budgets have been determined, the teams get to work. Katie & Adam decide to spruce up the area around their hot tub once they realize it can¿t be moved. They also have issues with a hole they¿ve dug for a pond after two days of rain turns their yard into a soggy mess. Bill & Cindy build a slate patio, but also find time to spy on their teammates with a digital camera. And Rebecca & Joey work on a fully stocked outdoor

Bill & Cindy, working on a breakfast area/den, decide to paint a music-themed mural on the wall. Katie & Adam go for striped walls in their guest room/office, which also includes installing a sink in an adjoining bathroom. And Joey & Rebecca work hard to turn their garage into a Men's Den. On Judgment Day, realtor Shad Bogany, designer Kelley West and contractor Stephen Hann grade each project for the last time. The highest-scoring team wins a complete home entertainment system, including a 55-inch High Definition Television.
