Block houses sell for less than they cost to build<\/a><\/p>\n Block judge teases US expansion plans<\/a><\/p>\n Alicia breaks down over the non-availability of a chair.<\/p>\n \u201cYou\u2019re crying over a chair or a couch but right now this is your whole world,\u201d she explained. <\/p>\n \u201cSo, these small things make a difference. If I was at home and couldn\u2019t get a chair, you\u2019d be like \u2018oh well, no biggie\u2019. But when you are in a competition and you want to<\/p>\n do well, small things make a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n Her day went from bad to worse when she got back to site and saw Sonny had installed the towel rails at a level better suited to a set of monkey bars.<\/p>\n \u201cYou might as well hang the towels on the ceiling,\u201d she ranted, knowing judge Shaynna Blaze would rake her over the coals for Sonny\u2019s slapdash decision.<\/p>\n \u201cSonny works so hard all week and then he gets to the point where he just wants to make a decision and just move on. And they\u2019re the decisions which cost us each week.\u201d<\/p>\n Furious that Sonny inferred her reaction was rude to other tradesmen on site, Alicia told her husband to leave her alone while she cooled off.<\/p>\n \u201cThe damage is done. I hope you find someone really nice and polite after this,\u201d she hissed, implying he\u2019d be in the market for a new spouse after auction day.<\/p>\n Alicia is crushed by being given painting tips by Dan, and by her husband\u2019s decision to mount a towel rail on the ceiling.<\/p>\n Remarkably, Britt took being doused in vomit by her other half with far more good grace.<\/p>\n Apart from hightailing it to Scott Cam\u2019s empty caravan to sleep without risk of a second drenching, Britt was non-plussed (even amused) by what had happened.<\/p>\n Alicia was incredulous.<\/p>\n \u201cI would kill you if you vomited on me!\u201d Alicia warned Sonny. \u201cI hope she arrested him.\u201d<\/p>\n Taz blamed the fish he ate for dinner (and not the many, many fireside beers) for the incident.<\/p>\n Gathering up the evidence of, umm, food poisoning, Taz stashed the soiled linen in his car, not realising that his crime was already the talk of the building site.<\/p>\n Now, instead of being mocked for his lack of building lingo, he\u2019s being given stick for being sick.<\/p>\n If Taz wasn\u2019t suffering enough, that arched shower door was also causing him headaches.<\/p>\n As foreshadowed by foreman Dan on Monday, the custom glass door was not going to fit into the arched space.<\/p>\n Under time pressure, the couple admitted defeat and elected to cut a rectangular hole for the door to sit inside instead.<\/p>\n That came with its own problems as it involved having to re-waterproof the new void.<\/p>\n Scotty was certain that it would be worth all the effort, declaring their bathroom the shoe-in for the win when he and Shelley Craft swung by for an inspection.<\/p>\n A square peg is about to fit into this round hole.<\/p>\n The host was far less complimentary about Han and Can\u2019s handiwork.<\/p>\n After giving Han some stick for her comeback (which saw her go from being at death\u2019s door to dirty dancing on a haybale) the Scotty and Shelley took in the girls\u2019 unique amber resin sinks.<\/p>\n While Shelley was clearly impressed, a confused Scotty quipped: \u201cThat looks like something you\u2019d find salad in on the dinner table.\u201d<\/p>\n Later, once the girls were out of earshot, Scott confided that he wasn\u2019t impressed.<\/p>\n \u201cI cannot see the vision of that bathroom. I can\u2019t see it working,\u201d he grumbled as the ever-sunny Shelley tried to find silver linings.<\/p>\n Certainly, the girls have some problems still to rectify before Sunday. Namely the brown VJ panelled walls which Can felt \u201cgave barnyard\u201d more than bathroom.<\/p>\n He might think it looks like a salad bowl, but Han and Can believe their vanity basins are a room winner.<\/p>\n With all this going on, everyone \u2013 and I mean everyone, the contestants, their trades, foreman Dan, Shelley and even Alisa and Lysandra \u2013 were inexplicably called to HQ to take a 15 minute line dancing break.<\/p>\n A more cynical viewer might think that it was a bit of filler. Or an excuse to shoehorn in another McCafe plug.<\/p>\n But for pole-dancing champ, Emma, it was simply heaven sent.<\/p>\n For Foreman Dan and a very hungover Taz, not so much. Let\u2019s just say, they shouldn\u2019t give up their day jobs.<\/p>\n MISSED AN EPISODE?
