Ken and Stephanie were tired of their outdated eyesore of a kitchen. They began tearing parts of the kitchen apart themselves, but only succeeded in making things worse. They are thrilled to accept assistance from host and carpenter Marc Bartolomeo, who proposes opening walls up to create a better flow. Marc helps to install a fancy two-tiered glass bar on the kitchen island and a decorative light panel in the half wall which both help to modernize this outdated marvel.
