He’s happy to see most groups solely planning on doing what they will afford, together with poor outdated Harry and Tash who’ve needed to pare again their yard and pool space to what Tash describes as a “typical Greek backyard, concrete so far as the attention can see”.

Harry and Robbie have it out over the ceiling boards.

Harry isn’t simply battling the finances, he’s additionally obtained his temperamental builder Robbie to cope with. He’s refusing to put in ceiling boards across the skylights above Harry and Tash’s deck as a result of he doesn’t assume they’ll look good.

“It’s easy, I don’t need to put my title to it,” he says, telling Harry to plaster it as an alternative.

However Harry discovers plastering the area will value $1000, versus the $400 Robbie says would value to place within the ceiling boards, so Harry digs his heels in.

“If it seems s..t I used to be by no means right here,” Robbie says, reluctantly agreeing..

Harry’s builder Robbie objects to placing ceiling boards across the outside skylights as a result of he says it would look low-cost.

However Luke and Jasmin look like pretending they’re flush with money and forging forward with probably the most elaborate and costly outside space on the present regardless of being on the bones of their arse.

In order Scott Cam visits each group to present them a finances replace, he additionally takes the chance to inform them that he may need to close Luke and Jasmin down.

It’s music to Daniel’s ears.

“They’ve been speaking it up saying they’re going to get it achieved and pay for it later,” he tells Scott, who rapidly disabuses him of the concept that’s allowed on this sport. On this remaining week, no person is allowed to go over finances as a result of there’s no subsequent weeks to claw it again.

“I can inform you, I is likely to be shutting folks down,” he says.

So Jasmin is on the scrounge for more cash. She strikes a take care of Tash to swap $700 value of landscaping provide vouchers from Soil Worx for a similar worth in Freedom furnishings vouchers, and one way or the other manages to get free leftover vouchers from Sarah and Tam too.

Sarah isn’t too happy when she discovers from a producer who’s been taking dobbing classes from Scott Cam that Jasmin had gone to different contestants without spending a dime money too.

Sarah discovers Jasmin has managed to get free vouchers from other contestants too.

The face Sarah has when she discovers she’s not the one contestant who’s been variety sufficient to present Jasmin some vouchers.

Additionally displeased with Jasmin is foreman Dan, when he finds out she’s disappeared for a pedicure in every week the place dozens of small jobs want doing. That is additionally defect restore week, plus the groups want to color their aspect fences.

“There’s a lot to do. It’s just a few days till The Block’s over… She has simply given up, I feel. Luke is right here taking over all of the stress and the place is she?”

This should be pile on Jasmin week, as a result of subsequent door’s Daniel has a dig too.

He’s joking with Luke and Jasmin’s builder Macca about poaching him, given Macca can solely work for one more day as a consequence of Luke and Jasmin working out of money to pay him.

“Luke would have fun and a beer about it however she can be painful,” Daniel says.

The groups are taking part in for giant stakes on this remaining week. The prize is a automotive value $37,000, {a magazine} cowl and the possibility to come back on prime of the leaderboard, which implies selecting the public sale order.

Plus, their households are arriving, regardless that it’s unlikely any of the groups will even have time to spend with them given they’re within the remaining two days of all the competitors.

Two groups have dramas with their pool fencing. Luke’s is as wobbly as a rotten tooth and he’s not impressed at having to repair it given the pool fencing was the duty of the manufacturing, not the contestants.

Fortunately his builder comes up with a one-hour resolution involving shoring up the footings with out having to tear the fence down.

Jimmy and Tam’s fence is just too quick. It’s meant to be 1200mm but it surely’s solely 900mm as a result of they calculated from the underside, moderately than the deck it abuts. It’s the primary time on the collection they’ve had a foreman go to of doom, however characteristically they take it of their stride and handle to get substitute glass delivered throughout the hour.

Luke’s troubles aren’t over although. When Scott Cam and Shelley Craft do their remaining stroll although Scott notices Luke and Jasmin haven’t completed the aspect of their home. It nonetheless must be clad and painted.

Scott Cam delivers the surprising news that the houses have to be finished before they're auctioned to Luke and Jamsin.

Scott Cam delivers Luke and Jasmin the apparently the stunning information that the homes must be completed earlier than they’re auctioned.

“When is that taking place?” he asks. “You’ll be able to’t ship it like that on Sunday. It will be unfair to everybody if you happen to have been in rivalry with half a home.”

And the couple aren’t allowed to go over finances both.

It’s the straw that breaks the camel’s again for Luke.

“I’m f..king one step away from a nervous breakdown,” he says, earlier than hitting the cellphone and utilizing his remaining Hipages credit score to e book a couple of carpenters for the next day. Nervous breakdown averted.

Jimmy and Tam are reunited with Frankie.

Jimmy burst into tears each time he talked about his daughter Frankie, so it’s not stunning he was a blubbering mess when he and Tam have been reunited along with her.

Which is lucky as a result of he and all the opposite contestants are about to be reunited with their children and households after eight weeks aside (aside from Harry and Tash, who stay in Melbourne).

There’s loads of tears, most of them Jimmy’s. The large man begins crying even speaking about his daughter Frankie, so it’s no shock he’s a multitude when he truly sees her.

As is Jade when she has to go away her three children after just a few hours to return to the location for an countless evening of cleansing and patching. I’d cry too.
