Love in Design (2018)

[bunniefuu]

- Morning, Hannah.

- Why does this place

always smell so good?

- We got some new flavors,

fresh out of the oven.

What can I get for ya?

- Uh, they're all so pretty.

Like mini works of art.

I think I'm gonna

need three of each.

- Ah, good choice.

If you haven't tried the frosted

mango yet there's one left.

- Never fails, start

and end of every season.

- Well, I don't know, it

just seems like everybody

works so hard, you know?

I think we deserve--

- Frosted mango?

- Dessert for breakfast.

And since it's been such a

good season, it's all you.

- Mm.

- Right?

- It's so good.

- Donuts.

Yep.

- So what are you

gonna do this weekend?

- You mean for my break?

- It's only four whole days.

- I'll take what I can get.

- Good morning, Hannah.

- Hey.

- Okay, we've got

to get rolling.

We're sh**ting in two minutes.

- Okay, you've got it.

Ugh, I hope they love it.

- Oh, they always do.

Almost always.

Oh, before I forget,

Wally wants to

meet with us tomorrow

morning, 9:00 a.m.

I know it's cutting

into your break so--

- Why?

Where?

- At the network.

Don't worry, I know

you always think

it's a bad thing.

- He's the head of the network.

He only goes into the office

when he wants to fire people.

- Trust me, we're fine.

Okay, our ratings are

still pretty solid.

Okay, sliding a

little, but he said

he just wants to

discuss some changes.

- Changes?

- Hannah, as you're

most amazing friend

and talented producer,

I'm tellin you,

you have nothing to

worry about, okay?

They love you, so just

go out there and--

- Be bold but not too bold.

- Wally's phrasing, not

mine, but yeah, pretty much.

You've got this.

Okay guys, we're rolling.

- Welcome back to Love in Design

where every season we bring

outdated living spaces

kicking and screaming,

into the 21st century.

And in this tight urban space,

less was definitely more.

We cleared the clutter,

toned down the color palettes

and added some simple

clean lines to give

this apartment a

clean, sleek, modern,

yet rustic feel.

So, are you ready to

see how our clients feel

about their new modern home?

- It's amazing.

- It's exactly what we expected.

- And cut.

- Hey, Carol.

- Hey, Jeff.

- How you doin'?

- It's about time

you get in here.

- Yeah, you know, I'm

gonna get the usual.

- Club sandwich,

salad on the side.

- How do you remember this?

- Just good.

- Oh, you know what, I'm also

gonna do a small bowl of chili.

- It's not like you

to change things up.

- I know, first day

at the new job so

I kinda got more of an appetite.

I'm also hoping to

revive my morning

cycle routine again,

so turn up my protein

intake, you know?

- So you gonna tell me

what brought you home?

Work?

Love?

A little bit of both?

- Yeah, he's still

working on that second

part there.

- Oh come on, I've been in town

for two weeks and

you're riding me

on my relationship already.

- It's not me, that's

Ali and the kids.

- Oh yeah, yeah of course.

Hey, Carol.

I'm gonna have what he has.

- Chili, too?

- No, wait, who's having chili?

- Mm hmm, oh yeah.

- So, I was gonna get ya a

plant for your first day.

- You were?

- No, of course not.

Come on.

But I did get ya this.

Left over from the

sales conference.

A big hit.

- Hmm.

Solid.

- It's good to have ya back.

- It's good to be back.

You know what, I

think I like this

better than the water

g*n key chain you got me.

- Whoa.

Come on, on a hot day there

is no better gift, man.

None.

- Says who?

- Ali and the kids.

- Hi, Wally's ready for you.

Right this way.

- Thank you.

- You know we love you.

We love the show,

that's not the issue.

- Okay, then why are we here?

- At this point,

we just think...

Your makeover show

needs a makeover.

To boost ratings.

- So we're not canceled.

- No!

Well not yet, anyway.

No, the home renovation

landscape on TV

is just way too

crowded right now.

So we need to find

a way to stand out

and grab more viewers.

And not just in the

metropolitan areas.

- Well, we can

certainly brainstorm

some ideas, maybe over lunch--

- Oh, it's already been decided.

We're moving the show

to your hometown,

for the first half

of season five.

- Who's hometown?

- Hannah's.

I know.

I know, I should've

run it by you first,

but it just came up.

- I'm sorry, have you

ever been to Lewisburg?

Little rural town that

doesn't really do modern.

- I wouldn't have

thought of it either,

if the owner of Lewisburg

Manor hadn't reached out.

Apparently um, Margot

wants to convert her

family's historic

manor into a B&B.

You know it, right?

- I used to give tours

there in high school.

Ahem, are you sure she

wants a modern makeover?

- Whatever she wants,

she wants you to do it.

A big fan of the show.

She also wants it

done in time for

the 150th anniversary

in five weeks.

That's their grand

opening and our natural

mid-season break.

- One makeover in five weeks--

- We usually do one an episode.

- Trust me, this way

you can go indepth,

get personal.

Let the audience get

to know you, Margot,

quaint townspeople.

Spruce things up a bit.

- I didn't realize that

that's the kind of thing

you were after.

- Well, we still

want you to be bold

but in your hometown, so

a little more personal.

But not too um...

- Personal?

- Personal.

- Exactly.

Any questions?

- Uh, just when do we leave?

- Hello there again.

Was that your boss calling?

- No, it was the

coordinator just confirming

flight times.

- So you don't

get any time off?

- It was just a little

break anyway, but...

You know, it's fine.

I am just glad

we're not canceled.

- Well if you ask me,

they're just lucky

to have you.

- Thanks mom.

But there are like

a million people

who would k*ll for this job.

I guess I just need

to try to give them

more of what they want.

- Well I'm sure you are

acing it, like you always do.

- I'm definitely

not acing it, Mom,

or the show wouldn't

need a makeover.

I'm excited to come home.

You know, the project

seems pretty easy

in the grand scheme of

things and, it'll be

like a working vacation.

Only at home.

With you and dad.

- Well your

room's all ready.

- Well the

show will put me up

so you don't have to worry.

- I know I don't, but,

a hotel is not home.

- Mom.

- And you are long

overdue a visit.

- Okay, as long as

you don't bring out

my unicorn comforter.

Promise?

- Okay, I can go change that.

Oh, Hannah, before you get here,

I thought I should

mention that--

- Uh, sh**t, gotta go.

See you soon.

- Well?

- I'll just tell her

when she gets here.

- The Preservation

Committee wants me

to oversee the renovation?

- I prefer to say, consult.

I know it's a little

different than

the work you were expecting but,

the committee can be a

little, particular.

- Well, that's why people

love this town, right?

- And they know you of

all people get that.

Three generations of family here

and a real drive to come back.

They just want you to make sure

that any changes are in

line with the town's history

and aesthetics,

especially since it's

one of the oldest

buildings here.

- Well, look, I'm flattered.

But you don't need the

city architect for this.

The rules won't let

them do anything

structural to the exterior.

- It's a fast project.

The committee just wants

someone on the ground.

- Why does this

seem like policing?

- It's just a quick

five week project

which is also why they

want someone who's

familiar with the property.

After this we can move

onto something more...

Up your alley.

- Okay, all right.

Who's doing the renovation?

- Do you watch a lot of TV?

- Oh boy.

- There she is.

- Oh my gosh, you guys

didn't have to do all this.

- I couldn't help it,

missed you so much.

- Oh, hi.

Oh my goodness.

- Hey, we're hugging.

- We're so happy to see you.

- You guys are amazing.

- Yep, we're heading there now.

Just a quick look to

see what we're in for

and connect with

the owner before

the whole circus

rolls in tomorrow.

We don't want to overwhelm

Margot on day one.

Okay, I'll let her know.

- Everything okay?

- Absolutely, they

just want us to

consult with the city architect.

- Who does?

- The local Preservation

Committee since

it's a historic building.

Sounds like it's

just a formality.

- People don't always

love change here.

- I think it's gonna

be a great little B&B.

- Thanks, mom.

- Oh and Julie, I

hope Hannah mentioned

that you were more

than welcome to stay

at our place, too.

- Oh, that's so

sweet of you, but I--

- Julie kind of loves

staying at hotels.

- I have to

admit, it's a perk

but I do love that

Hannah's staying with you.

- Oh good, because

she hasn't been home

in close to three years.

- Only because you

guys are so great

about visiting.

And I--

- And you're working

way too hard.

- Mm-hmm.

- I never said that.

- Are we here?

- We'll just go

run some errands.

We'll go to the store.

- Pick you up in an hour?

- Oh, you guys don't

have to come back.

We'll just get a

ride from production.

See you in an hour.

- See ya, hon.

- See ya later.

- Ready to change history?

- It's been interesting,

people's reaction.

- Well, a new B&B is

great for tourism.

- Yes, it is, but I get it.

It wasn't my plan either,

to change all this.

But after my husband

passed, I took a year away,

traveled and realized I didn't

want to stay stuck in the past.

He wouldn't have

wanted that for me.

Or this place.

So I just decided to

do something different

more social.

- Yeah.

- So this used to

be open for tours.

- Actually, Hannah was

one of our best guides.

Didn't always

stick to the rules.

- You?

- Well I can go rogue,

I mean, you know.

- Snuck a whole tour

group into the lounge.

Even though it was closed.

- I'm sorry, it had to be seen.

The way the light

was coming in through

the stained glass

window was stunning.

- See, that passion is

why everyone loved her.

- Now, that doesn't surprise me.

- And why I thought

your modern sensibility

might be exactly what we need.

Someone who knows this

place but could still

see beyond that.

- Thank you.

- I just can't

believe you'll both

be working here again.

After all these years.

- I'm sorry, both?

- Oh, there he is.

Jeff.

- Hey, Margot, how are ya?

- It looks like you

moved home just in time.

- Hi, I'm Jeff.

- Hi, Julie.

Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you, too.

So I'm guessing I'm

not the architect

that you were expecting.

- You could say that again.

- Oh, oh, you're that Jeff.

- Okay, I know it's

a small town but...

Wait a minute.

Why didn't you guys

tell me he moved back?

You must've known.

- I tried to.

- When?

- This morning.

- This morn...

You just found out this morning?

- Well okay, I

found out last week,

not that you would

be working together.

I did not know that.

It's just...

You've been a little

worried about work lately

and I didn't want

to add to that.

- What?

No, it wouldn't add to anything.

No, I'm happy for him.

He's been wanting to move

back here for awhile.

- I know it's

complicated with you two.

You dated for a long time.

- That is not the issue.

No, no.

You know, I mean, he's

like my old sweater.

We were comfortable,

it's just that,

you know, even though we

haven't seen each other

in three years, it would

be easy to fall back

into just, I just don't

want any distractions.

You know what I mean?

I, this is too important.

And we have nothing in

common, design wise.

Do you remember his

apartment in college?

- The old converted

bank building.

- It was crammed

and it was dusty.

- And dark.

- But he loved it because

he could feel the history.

And now I have to

consult with that.

- I am sure you won't

even notice he's there.

- It's Jeff we're talking about.

- You know what?

It's fine.

- Fine?

- I'm just going to stay focused

and I'm going to make

it a great season

and a great time with you guys.

- Well, we are excited.

- You can even do some cycling.

You love that.

- Yeah, cheers.

Wake you gently everyday

Smile at me with

tender grace

Love me through

the highs and lows

Just something you know

I feel your heartbeat, baby

Something surreal that love

I've forgotten how

peaceful it is here.

- And a good

breakfast will start

your day off right.

- Thanks, mom, but

I think I'm all set.

Plus I have to get donuts

before I go in to work.

Breakfast sounds great.

- Good.

Your father's already outside.

- Okay, I'll get one of these.

Good morning.

I love that you guys

still have breakfast

out here everyday.

- Only in the summer.

Winter gets a little cold.

- It's so nice out here.

Why don't you let me

fix it up a little?

- What's there to fix?

- Come on, you know I'd love to.

Renovation is fun for me.

- I think you've got

enough on your plate.

- Is that a breakfast pun?

- Okay.

Mine.

- Wait, why is

Wally coming here?

Today?

He never comes to set.

- Actually he won't be

here until later today,

but he just said he

wants to make sure

we're not missing

anything to set us apart.

- Missing anything?

- Honestly, I think he

just wants to make sure

he didn't send us to

the middle of nowhere.

- Well, do you think

Wally likes sprinkles?

They have cinnamon

or there's chocolate.

You know what, I'm

not going to guess.

Hi, I'll take five

of each, please.

- Are you buying

the whole store?

- We're gonna have

a lot of donuts.

Welcome back to Love in Design.

Follow me.

We might not be able to

change the exterior walls

but, we can make a

big impact in here.

Here ya go.

This is your mark.

Are you ready?

- Ready.

- All right, here we go.

Three, two, one, go!

Yeah.

Whew, and we have begun.

I'm fine with all the separation

upstairs where the bedrooms are,

but down here we're

gonna open things up,

maximize space.

- Okay.

- So, what do you think

about transforming

the garage, creating a

larger lower lounge area?

We'd get a lot more

room without changing

the footprint.

- Hmm.

- So guests could

lounge down below

and play boardgames

in the den and create

like a two-tiered

lounge for anyone

to relax and mingle.

- I never would've

thought of that.

- And then also down there,

if we could also just...

Um, if we could just knock

down the east facing wall

we can also create an area

for guests to check in

and get a welcome

glass of wine and go to

the new lounge.

- Exactly.

- Can you excuse

me for just a sec?

- Sure.

- Good.

- Hi.

- How's it goin'?

- Good.

- Good?

- Great, I have

a quick question.

Are you gonna be here every day?

Cause I thought with consulting

that you would only be here if

we needed to consult.

- Normally, yes.

- Okay, good.

- But this isn't normal.

Normally, you know,

I'd be dealing with

city design, improvements

instead of policing.

- Oh, is that what

you're doing, policing?

- This wasn't my idea to be here

in the first place, okay?

Just want to make sure

you don't change too much.

- Is this test footage?

- Yeah, not exactly.

- Just don't make

everything shiny and new.

- Because you hate change?

- Well, change, I love change.

I embrace change.

- So you don't still

drive that old Mustang?

- No, no.

- Really?

- Not really, no.

Sometimes, okay, when I'm trying

to impress somebody.

Look, I just don't

think shiny and new

instantly makes

everything better.

- You're right, it doesn't.

But it can sure help.

I mean when we open things up--

- Personally, I like walls.

I mean, see how

easy it is for you

to get away from me?

With a wall.

Without a wall.

With a wall.

Without.

- Yeah, I got it, yeah.

- What?

- You just can't help

yourself, can you?

- What?

- You always have to

give your two cents.

- My two cents.

I think my work is done here.

Carry on, it looks good.

- This definitely

spruces things up.

- Now here I would

like to take down

the walls on either

side of the fireplace.

I just feel like

there's a lot more--

- Uh, sorry to interrupt guys.

I'm going to go

back to the office,

get out of your hair.

- Sounds great.

- Okay, well, see ya soon.

- Anyway that will also

eliminate the sconces

which is a plus.

Because obviously

they don't even work.

- Yeah.

- Um, that's enough to

get you started, right?

- I'm already on it.

- Okay, thanks, Skip.

You're the best.

Wally, hi.

Uh, did you get a donut?

I wasn't sure what

you like so I got

a few different flavors.

- I'm going to pass.

- Okay, uh well, here it is.

This is the Lewisburg Manor.

What do you think?

- I have to admit,

I like what I've

been seeing so far.

The dynamics, the sparring,

the history.

- I'm sorry, what

exactly are you seeing?

- Uh, Wally was

just taking a look

at some footage.

- I think we found our show.

- See ya later, guys.

- Hi, um you seriously

want me to consult

with him on air, why?

- It was Wally's

idea, but I get it.

It creates chemistry, dynamics.

- But this isn't a dating show.

What about the actual design?

- It's still your show,

you are the designer.

- Okay, I know

everybody wants us

to be amazing and so

do I, but we don't

agree on anything.

- I think that's what

Wally's banking on.

- I just don't think

this is a good idea.

- Why?

- Because...

We're always great at first.

That's why we've

tried too many times

to make it work, but when

it really matters, we...

We can't figure

it out, you know.

And I just don't want

that to happen with this.

We're not asking you

to date him.

Just work with him.

Hannah, look.

I know you love the show, okay?

But everyone has to

love it, including

the network.

- Do we even know

if he's up for it?

You know being on camera's

not really his thing.

- I guess we'll find out.

- Hey.

- Oh, hi.

- You need a little help?

- No, no, it was just

low tire pressure.

- Well I hope I didn't

throw you off too much.

- No.

You know, I still

love it out here.

- Yeah, what would

you always say?

Calm and inspiring?

- Yeah, with amazing views.

- Yeah, just like

your design aesthetic.

- You don't have to wait for me.

I'm sure you want

to do another round.

- Uh, , you know what?

I'm going to give it another go.

- Yeah.

- You sure you're okay?

- Yeah, no, I'm fine.

Thank you for stopping.

- Oh no, of course.

I will see you at work.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- Welcome back.

This week Love in

Design gets personal.

We traveled to my

hometown of Lewisburg

to transform this manor

into a bed and breakfast.

- Honestly, I don't know

why you want to film me

but, uh, knock yourself out.

- So you're fine with it?

- I don't love the idea

of being on camera, no.

It's just, I hope I don't

have to object too much,

you know, so I can just

fly under the radar.

- I know Hannah will like that.

- She's really

good at this, isn't she?

- What, the whole design thing?

- No, no, she's always

been good at that.

- Oh, being a host.

Yeah, the camera loves her.

And she's a super hard worker.

- Well, some things

never change.

- So then you'll

tune in next week

to see how the

renovation progresses.

Let's keep going.

- And cut.

- Okay.

- Great.

- Yeah, I thought that distance

worked pretty well, right?

- Yeah,

felt pretty good.

- Excuse me.

Hey, I know this is a lot,

having everyone here.

How are you holding up?

- Good so far.

A little disoriented without

some of the walls.

- It'll start to

take shape soon.

By the way, are there

any design details

that you're after?

- In here?

- Yeah like, if there's anything

you wanna keep or

you wanna get rid of?

- I think I want to

keep those sconces.

- Oh, really?

- Mm.

- Is that a personal thing or--

- I saw them in a

hotel lobby in Italy

and I thought, we

should keep those.

- Well, I want to

keep you happy.

- Oh, sorry, I

need to take this.

- Of course.

- Sconces, really?

You hate sconces.

I thought you'd wanna put up a--

- Big chandelier for

impact and flexibility,

yeah but, that's

not what she wants.

- Well, that's kinda surprising.

Because back in the

day you would've

shot that down.

- Well, things are

a lot different now.

- Well, they don't have to be.

- Wait, are you

trying to be cute

for the camera?

- The camera's on the

ground, first off, okay?

I know that much,

it's not on me, so.

- Oh, then what

was all that about?

I'm sorry is there

something architectural

you wanna talk

about, Mr. Architect?

No, there you go, goodbye.

Is it bad that I'm

glad he went back?

- Who, Wally?

Uh, no, I think

it'd be weird if you

wanted him to stay.

He left quickly but

not too quickly.

- He's just exhausting, right?

Be opinionated but...

- Not too opinionated.

- Hold on a second.

Oh wow.

These are beautiful.

- Oh, hi.

Thank you.

You're doing the renovation

on the manor house,

aren't you?

- Mm hmm.

- Well, here's my card,

if you need anything.

- Oh, thank you.

- It's beautiful.

- Probably not modern

enough but I think

these pieces would look amazing

in your beach bungalow.

- So, how are you feeling?

Phase two, tomorrow!

- Honestly, blocked.

I've never had to work

on a building this old

with so much to preserve.

And having a very

opinionated ex isn't helping.

- Well, it's a good

thing you're creative.

On both fronts.

You know him, right?

- Yeah.

- Then you know how

to work around him.

You just gotta get

a little creative.

- I really thought

we'd get more daylight

in here when we

knocked down that wall

but, as much as

I hate to say it,

I think we need to

swap out this window

for a more modern one--

- Sorry, quick thing.

I don't know if I would do that.

- Why?

It's not street-facing,

so we're not

breaking any rules.

- It's just unique to the space.

- Yeah, I know, I get

that but I'm going

big picture here.

Oh, wait.

This is you talking,

not the committee.

- I just don't think

that you'll get this

level of craftsmanship

with a new one.

Do you remember that

old, the bank building?

You know with the

tattered shutters.

- Yeah.

- Yeah

- I do.

- It was beautiful.

- Horrible, they

were all broken.

- But you're the one

that painted them--

- What's the...

Stop, stop.

- They were perfectly...

You told me it was--

- We're not doing this.

- I'm going.

- Coin toss, best out of three.

- You're on.

- Okay, anyone have a coin?

- Hannah, whatcha doin'?

- Settling this.

Getting creative.

Anyone?

- Do you have a coin?

- Are you guys

playing a game right now?

- Don't worry.

- This is the way we

settle all disagreements.

- With a coin toss?

- Competition really,

anything works.

Do you have a coin?

- Yeah, trust me,

we figured this out

a long time ago.

One quick game solves a

lot of personal gridlock.

Otherwise, we would

be stuck here all day.

- All day.

- Yeah.

Yeah, no, We just set

up the rules and then...

Really, nobody has a coin?

- You know what?

We could always

take this out back.

- Seems like a bit

much, don't you think?

Okay, fine.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, great.

After you.

- Uh uh, wait, wait, guys.

Huh, who knew this was here?

- Apparently they did.

- Okay, if I win,

your sidebar design

commentary stops.

I'm happy to hear

anything that has to do

with committee

restrictions but--

- Okay and if I win,

you give my ideas

and opinions serious

consideration.

Or we can go back inside

and try this again?

- Okay, tough guy.

- Okay.

- Get ready to lose.

- Be my guest.

Please.

Didn't know what

we left behind

The road ahead was

so full of life

But with it all comes

the truth of time

We didn't know

what we left behind

What we left behind

What we left behind

Look who the winner is.

- Well, I'm ready

to go back inside

and get to work.

- Don't, just don't.

All of you.

- Um.

- Okay.

- Got it.

- Back to work.

- Back to work again, everybody.

- That looks fun.

And tiring at the same time.

- Yeah, what

happened to the guy

that used to cycle

10 miles a day?

- I don't see you up there.

- You know, the

girls would love it

if you joined them.

Right, girls?

- Yeah,

yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Yeah, right girls?

- Whose side are you on anyway?

- Yours, always.

- Always?

- Always.

- Always.

- So, how does it

feel being home?

- Right now?

Uh, not so good.

I mean, this wasn't the

job description, you know?

I'm not designing.

She doesn't want me there.

- Who doesn't want you there?

Hannah?

- You could've said no.

- What, to the project?

I just got hired, man.

I want to keep it that way.

- I'm going to

check on the kids.

I'll be right back.

- Okay, thanks.

- Hey girls, you having fun?

- Look, I just, I just think

there's a bigger reason

why you're there.

- Yeah.

It's called work.

I know you with your

sales flex hours,

it's a concept that's difficult

for you to grasp.

- Oh, ha ha.

Or maybe you just

can't shake it.

- Shake?

Shake what?

- Her.

- You tend to gravitate.

- Gravitate.

- Yeah, we're friends.

We're friendly, you know?

- Yeah, is that why

you look like that

every time you talk about her?

Whoa, hey.

Girls, girls.

- Hey, whoa, whoa, hey, no, no.

We'll play after lunch.

We'll play after--

Oh hey, no, hey, no.

- Girls.

- I'm running shots.

- You still working?

This late?

- I know.

I'm just trying to get it right.

- Well, whatever you're doing,

they're liking it.

So, why don't you

just enjoy that.

- I should, but it's

driving me crazy.

I keep second guessing myself.

- I'm sure it's a

lot of pressure.

- It's just there

are so many people

wanting so many

different things.

And not just here, at

the network and I have to

try to make all

those people happy.

- Remember what I do

when I'm feeling stressed

or just a little, mah?

- Put on a good tune?

- And then everything

just sort of

comes into focus.

- I'll admit, it does help.

Thanks, mom.

- Well, I will leave you to it.

- Updating a dining

room into something

more functional for

a B&B while still

maintaining the historic

charm, that's the issue.

The solution?

A slight change of plan.

I still want to

knock down both walls

on either side of the

fireplace, but I'd also

like to remove

these two windows,

knock down the wall between them

and create one large window.

- Um, I'm sorry.

- Oh, hey.

It's our guest architect.

- Oh, hey, hey guys.

Um, what about this

big window right there?

- This is street

facing with cars.

This would be a vista.

- Yeah, but this is a

historical building.

- I know, which means

that we can't make

any structural alterations

to the exterior

without approval.

- Yeah, but the Preservation

Committee will never

approve that.

- Think of what you'd gain.

The views you'd

have in here if we

opened this up to the backyard?

- Yeah.

- This would be an

incredible communal space.

- It's not gonna happen.

- Not if you don't ask.

- This wall was

built for a reason.

- In the 1800s.

Unless we bring the outside in.

- What do you mean?

- We could create a large

mural of the grounds

right here, like we're

looking out of a window.

- So you keep the feeling

without losing the history.

- Exactly.

- I like it.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

- Wait, what's that?

Oh, it's the sound of change.

Not so bad, right?

- You know, you're as impressive

as I remember.

- And cut.

- This

heat is k*lling me.

They said the new AC should

start working tomorrow,

but in the mean time, survival.

- Why don't I help

ya out with this.

- Great, thank you.

- All right guys, any takers?

- Oh, good news.

- Okay.

- So the network has

seen the first week

of dailies and they are

loving what they're seeing.

And it's not just Wally,

so, they wanna screen

a preview of the first episode.

- A screening?

- Where?

- It's gonna kick off your

"cinema series in the park."

Tonight, 6:30.

- Tonight?

- Oh wait, they want

to screen a rough cut

to the entire town?

- Yeah, I guess it's one way

to get the locals excited.

- Okay, I mean, I'm

sure it'll be great.

- And they want

you to go together.

- What?

- Why?

- Well, you're both

on screen, so...

It's just a casual

meet and greet.

- Well, no one really

knows who I am.

- Well, most people in town do.

- Yeah but nobody really cares.

- I have to agree.

- It's all just for

publicity, okay?

Super casual, like I said.

Well, except Wally's

flying in for it so.

- Right.

- Yeah, okay.

Well, I'll pick ya up at six?

- Yep.

- This should be fun.

- Should be.

- Oh my gosh, this is still

the best lemonade I've ever had.

What's your secret?

- Sugar.

- Sugar, that's your secret?

- The lemons are always fresh.

- And a sprig of rosemary

but, mostly sugar.

- Mm, wow.

I am having a flashback.

- Of high school?

- And several summers

after that,.

We spent so much time

in that greenhouse,

Hannah and I.

Reading, listening to

music, planting new flowers.

- Well, we

love it out here.

- Which is why I

wish you'd let me

get my hands on it.

- You look, great.

- Thanks.

We should probably get going.

We don't wanna be late.

- Uh, yeah, right.

- We'll see ya soon.

We'll be right behind you.

- Good to see you guys.

And thank you.

- So I thought you hardly

drove this car anymore.

- I don't.

- Thank you.

Yeah, I can't believe

you still have

that keychain.

- Oh, that's one of

Patrick's better gifts.

You okay?

- Yeah.

Okay, fine.

It's just with this new format,

you know, I want everyone

to be happy, but--

- Everyone?

That's a real tall order.

When did you start caring

about what other people think?

- When I realized how

many people are depending

on me to keep this going.

- You're doing an amazing job.

And that's all you can do.

You know what?

If I were you I would just...

Block it all out.

Honestly.

It's what I'm doing

with all this.

- You really don't care

what anyone thinks?

- No.

- And you're gonna

be totally open

to hearing all of

their opinions?

- Yes, yes I will.

- I'm gonna quote you on that.

- Okay, you do that.

Come on, let's do this.

Here you go.

- Oh, thank you.

- No problem.

- Hi.

Good to see you.

Hey, hi.

Welcome, thank you

so much for coming.

- Can everyone

please find a seat?

We will be starting soon.

We hope you enjoy

this sneak peek

of the season five

premiere of Love in Design.

- Advertisement.

- That's awesome.

Welcome back to Love in Design,

and this is demo week here

at the Lewisburg Manor.

It's a very exciting day

because the homeowner

herself, Margot, will be

making the first strike

on that first wall

we're taking down.

Go!

Yeah!

I think we need to

swap out this window

for a more modern one

that lets in better light.

- Uh, quick thing.

I don't know if I can do that.

- Why?

It's not street facing, so

we're not breaking any rules.

- You want to get out of here?

Come on, let's go.

- Wait, wait--

- You realize that--

- This is you

talking, not the committee.

- Why didn't you tell me?

- Tell you what?

- That I pause...

A lot.

- At least you don't say um.

- Is that any worse?

- Um, yes.

No, I get it.

It's hard to watch yourself.

- You were perfect as usual.

- As usual?

- I really like that

floating staircase.

Not for me, but for that

house, it really worked.

- You have seen the show.

- I've seen all four seasons.

- What?

Okay, then you have

to admit, modern

is kind of liberating.

You're not constrained

by the past,

it's a blank canvas.

You can go anywhere,

it's exciting.

What?

- It's just, the sky has

always been the limit for you,

it always has been.

It's impressive.

But it's hard to hold onto.

- I think they liked it.

- I think they did too.

- Well done, honey, that

was really terrific.

- Thanks.

- You were amazing.

- Everyone seemed to like it.

- Okay, we're gonna

see you back at home.

- Okay, thanks.

- I think everyone loved it.

- Yeah?

- I loved it.

I just think we can be a

little more,.

But not too,.

I gotta find Julie.

- Oh.

- Hey.

- I never thought I'd see you

up on that big screen.

- Whoa, I can't believe

I know someone famous.

- Well, I wouldn't go that far.

- Why do you look shorter on TV?

- Shorter, really?

- No.

- Yeah, oh yeah,

it's like, tiny.

- What?

Hey, did you guys

say hi to Hannah?

- Yeah, yeah, I said

hi to her earlier,

but I have to get

these kids home,

so you guys fun tonight.

- Okay.

- Thanks, babe.

- All right, bye, guys.

- Thanks, baby.

- You staying out?

- It's your big debut, man.

Come on, we need to celebrate.

- Yes we do.

- I'll say hi to Hannah.

- Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- I was wondering when

I would run into you.

- It's so good to

see you, Hannah.

You look great.

- Thank you.

I saw your kids earlier,

they're so grown up already.

- Yeah, and they loved

the whole premiere.

We all did.

- Kind of crazy though, right?

The two of us on

camera together?

- Yeah, it's a bit

of a throwback,

but hey, I think we

celebrate tonight, right?

I'm thinking, what, Sparrows?

- Sparrows.

- Sparrows.

- Yes.

- Yes.

- I would love to,

but I told Julie

we'd go out, so...

- Yeah you did.

So, where are we going?

- Sparrows.

- Sounds good to me.

- Looks like we're

going to Sparrows.

- I think it's

time for a toast, folks.

Well, to a very

unusual and dare I say

extremely successful

screening, cheers.

- Cheers to that.

- Cheers.

- Cheers.

- Okay, now, no more work talk

for the rest of the night, yeah?

- Right

- Done.

- Yeah, okay, got it.

I got nothing.

- Hey, I don't know

about you guys,

but I am starving.

- Yeah, I could eat.

- I heard they have really

good fish tacos here.

- Twice fried.

- Right up my alley.

- I'm up for whatever,

spicier the better.

- Me too.

What?

I'm up for new things.

- You?

- Don't let this guy

fool you, all right?

- Okay.

- Yes, they still do it.

Who is ready for some trivia?

- Oh, I am.

- The only game these two

can play together.

- The last time we

teamed up, unbeatable.

- Unbeatable.

I'm gonna sign us up.

- I'm coming with you.

- Okay.

- Guaranteed winning.

- Good choices.

- What's our team name?

- Wow, trivia, eh?

- Do you have something

to do with this?

- What?

It's Ali, I can't take credit.

- 385.

- Are you sure?

- Yes, I'm

sure, write it down.

- 385, all right.

- What

U.S. city is home

to the world's first skyscraper?

- We can do this.

- Chicago.

- We are so winning this.

- Summer of 69 written?

- '84, totally 84.

- You sure?

Okay, okay.

- And the winner is.

- We totally did it.

- Way to go.

- I keep forgetting

that you're like

an encyclopedia of random facts.

- Well, look, I mean, everyone

gets to have an opinion

about paint color,

but no one can argue

the number of steps

in the Eiffel Tower.

- That is a very good point.

How many steps?

- In the Eiffel Tower?

- Yeah.

- 1,710.

- You're the smartest

person I know.

- Well, you're pretty

smart yourself.

- Book smart maybe,

but not always

smart where it counts.

- Well...

Thank you for driving me home.

And for tonight.

It was fun.

- It was.

Hannah.

Love in Design, is

that your title?

- How did you know?

- Just seemed like you.

- Good morning.

- Honey?

- You've been wanting to

renovate your backyard

for years.

I've been wanting

to renovate your

backyard for you for years.

Please, let me do it.

- Okay.

- Go for it.

- Yes!

I put a call in to the artist.

I saw his work at

the farmer's market.

And you know, I

really like the idea

of keeping it local.

- I do too, as long

as everything's

done in time for

the grand opening.

Invitations are already out.

- We will make it work.

- Then enjoy your weekend.

- Thank you, you too.

- You have any plans?

- For the weekend?

A little side project.

- Your parents' deck?

- What?

- You've been eyeing

that thing for years.

- Well done.

- So, does that mean

you won't have time

to hang out with me?

- Is that a challenge

to see how fast

I can get it done?

- Maybe.

- Challenge accepted.

- Are you sure

you won't let us help?

This looks like a lot.

- Trust me, I've got a system.

- But still.

- I'm excited, so go,

go see a movie or have

lunch or something.

Just give me a

little bit of notice

before you come back, okay?

Trust me.

This is gonna be

a piece of cake.

- We're going.

- Good, thank you, go.

- I'm going.

- Have fun.

- We going with extra

protein or no protein?

I saw the bike out front.

- Go with protein.

- You got it.

- You know what, Carol,

on second thought...

Delivery.

Thought you might need a little

extra fuel for the challenge.

Look, I know you're

in the middle of it,

so you don't have

to eat right now.

- Thank you so much for this.

- I didn't know if

your parents were

gonna be here, so

I got some extra.

You start every

season with donuts,

so I figured we

could start your deck

renos with takeout.

By the way, what

can I do to help?

- Oh, I have a whole

load of laundry.

- That's very funny.

- Actually, everything is

going pretty well so far.

The guys will be

here in a few minutes

to put up the pergola.

- Well, it looks like

you still need help.

- I don't need help.

- I'm not taking

no for an answer.

- You wanna work?

- I wanna work.

- Yeah?

Okay, all right, let's work.

- All right, let's do it.

- Unwrap these guys.

- So, anything else?

- No, I mean, um, well...

There might be one thing.

- Okay, sh**t.

- You could talk

to the Preservation

Committee about

building a pergola

outside the manor.

- Work, really?

- I know, I just, I

just, you're right here,

and we only have two weeks left.

Think about it, for

a B&B, vacation,

being outside is everything,

so if I were staying there--

- You'd want somewhere

to lounge outside.

- I mean, I know

we'd be building

a structure that's

not in the same style

as the manor, and I

know that's an issue,

but it would make

the whole outside

more of a feature.

What do you think?

- Okay.

- You'll talk to them.

- But.

- Really?

- You have to come

with me, okay?

You're obviously the

more persuasive one.

- That would be amazing.

- And under one condition.

- Name it.

- No more work talk today.

Let's eat.

- Deal.

My dad was knee-deep

in tax season.

My mom was working a ton too,

and yet every

weekend for months,

they'd be out there

working on that greenhouse,

helping me plant my

favorite flowers inside.

Oh, they wanted to

make sure it was

ready for my 10th

birthday, and they did.

Some days, it was

like 100 degrees out.

My mom would make her lemonade,

and we'd sit and

watch my dad work.

I swear, he never took a break.

- So that's where

you get it from.

- So, this is like the tiniest

thing I can do for them.

- I think they're gonna love it.

- Even the gray teak?

- Especially the gray teak.

This is nice.

- Sitting?

- Being here.

With you.

You know, I never stopped

thinking about you.

- That's because you like

to hold on to things.

- I'm serious.

- So am I.

- I never wanted to break

up with you, you know that?

I had to let you go.

I mean, you had this

great opportunity.

- I said we could just see.

I was willing to take that risk.

- But you've always

had something to do,

see, accomplish.

- You wanted to come back here,

that was your plan.

You never even wanted

to visit Los Angeles.

- It was ridiculous.

But I knew you had to be there,

and I wanted that for you.

I just, I never knew

how to let you go.

- I tried to keep

your mother away

as long as possible.

- We were just so excited.

Oh, this is a nice surprise.

- Hey, guys.

- Ready to see it?

Okay, don't look, don't look.

- Okay, okay.

- Yeah, I got you.

- Okay, you ready?

One, two, three, tada!

- Oh my.

- Oh, wow.

- This is, it's amazing.

- You like it?

- We love it, sweetie.

- Thank you.

- Oh my gosh.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Did you mean to do this?

- I did

actually, you inspired me.

- I never would

have thought of this

fireplace in here.

It was all just storage,

but it's perfect.

Seems like it will

work year round?

- Yeah.

- Hannah.

- I want you to be happy, I do,

but I think we can do better.

- You don't like

the dining room?

- No, I love it, but this room

is begging for a

larger chandelier,

something bold that

stands on its own.

- So you don't like the sconces?

- I should have said

something earlier.

I know you're a big

fan, but this room

is missing the wow factor.

- Well, you're the designer,

so I'll leave you to it.

- Okay, well, Wally

is definitely coming

to the grand opening, so...

Prepare yourself.

- I felt better

five seconds ago.

- It's a slippery

slope, change one thing,

make one exception--

- Which I totally

understand, and I know

it's easier to keep

things as they are,

but this is more than

just a design thing,

it's a communal thing.

The benefit this

space could afford us,

to me, far outweighs

the exception

for a pergola.

- With a completely

different look

and feel to the original home.

- Larry, maintaining

the integrity

of the buildings in this town

is a huge priority of mine,

it's the reason why I'm here.

- And I'll admit, I

had forgotten just

how beautiful the buildings are.

I mean, look at this one.

I don't want to compromise

any of that richness.

- I think that we can

both agree there's

a lot of history here.

But this pergola, as

designed, it elevates

the building and helps

fulfill its purpose

in a new previously

unimagined way.

Look, I have to agree

with Hannah on this one.

- And if you knew the two of us,

that's saying a lot.

- Okay, well, I'll mull it over

and get back to you.

- Soon?

- It's gonna have to be.

- You're so persuasive.

- It was teamwork.

But I wouldn't get

too excited, I mean,

he hasn't agreed to anything.

- Yet.

- I am feeling

pretty good though.

- You should, it's all

starting to come together.

- I love this phase.

- Well, you know what?

I think we should

go sightseeing.

- In our hometown?

- Yeah, why not tomorrow?

- Well, I actually

have to go look

at tiles tomorrow

in the morning.

- Perfect.

We'll go in the afternoon,

it's the weekend.

- Jeff, you know that

I'm leaving soon.

- Which makes you

kind of a tourist

who should definitely

go on a tour.

- I'd love to.

- All right, well then,

maybe we should just

see how it goes.

Come on.

- I can't believe I never

did this walk before.

All the years I lived here.

I think I just thought it was

something tourists did.

- Well, my parents

started taking me here

when I was three.

Didn't have much say in it,

but it still impresses me.

- The style?

- Just how unique everything is.

The detail, it's not

just a picket fence

and another picket fence.

Everything is done specifically.

To last a lifetime.

- This place really is special.

- See, I told you so.

I do like it better

when you're here though.

- Smooth.

- I'm serious.

- Okay, Mr. Tour Guide.

How about that one?

- That one was built in 1872

by a local sheep farmer

for his daughter.

And she ended up living there

for the rest of her life.

- I didn't think I liked

tudor style houses,

but that is incredible.

- Yeah, it is, isn't it?

- Ready to start?

- Yes I am.

Thanks.

- Great.

- Hey.

- hey.

- Um, so I am kind of shocked

that it went this way.

- Why?

Oh, please say they approved it.

- I'm sorry.

- That's okay.

- It just looks like we're gonna

have a lot more work to do.

{Hannah stammers)

Oh yeah, they approved it.

- Looks like we have

a pergola to build.

- All right.

- Way to go.

- Thanks.

Oh, oh, oh, things

are coming together

Coming together, yeah, yeah

Oh, oh, oh, being happy

wherever, happy wherever

Been a busy life,

gotta take the time

Don't let precious

moments pass us by

We can build a dream,

love is all we need

- Beautiful view.

We only have one chance

And ways to amends, dreaming

Slow like a slow dance

One more I've seen, only

you and me, keep dreaming

Slow like a slow dance

Slow like a slow dance

We only have one chance

Embrace true romance,

keep dreaming

Slow like a slow dance

- If I had more

time, I would have

landscaped the entire

backyard for entertaining.

- Are you kidding me?

You put in an entire

surround sound system.

I think it's perfect.

Almost perfect.

- What are you doing?

- You'll see.

I'll wake you

gently every day

- Are you kidding me?

My heart has never

felt this way

The world is now

a better place

That's our song.

You love me through

the highs and low

- Now it's perfect.

Just something you know

I feel your heartbeat, baby

This is a pretty nice addition.

Something so real,

that look in your eyes

- See?

Told you.

Something you feel

I give my life now,

baby, for you and me

Our love will grow

Something you know

I can't believe tonight

is the grand opening.

- Which is why I wanted to ask.

Do you mind if I

pick you up tonight?

For a real date?

- Okay.

- Okay.

Today you know forever

I'm so proud of you.

Love me through

the highs and lows

Just something you know

- Come in.

- I thought you might

want to listen to this.

I've been thinking about you

- You used to love

this song, remember?

Growing up, it was

your dad's favorite,

and you would always

sneak into the living room

way past your bedtime

whenever it was on.

- In dad's tan fedora, right?

- Doing this cute little dance.

- I can't believe I

forgot about that.

- This song still makes

you happy instantly,

doesn't it?

- Yeah.

Well, you pulled it off.

And had a little fun doing it.

- Mom, be honest, is this crazy?

Again?

- You know, it is

a wonderful thing

when someone gets you,

and it is even better

when they challenge you too.

And it is rare to find both.

Oh, and speaking of.

- Wow.

- Thank you.

- So, you ready for the reveal?

- I have to admit, I

never thought you two

would get past the

window, but here we are.

- Congratulations,

it looks great.

- Thank you.

- I had to give up the sconces,

but I am very happy.

Cheers.

- Cheers.

- You told me you would

help prep for the interview.

- Oh, let's step over here.

- Be right back.

- Yeah, of course.

- Jeff, I wanted

to thank you too.

You brought a lot to the table.

- Oh, no, it was fun.

The very beginning

wasn't that much fun.

- You know, she's a

real star, Hannah.

- Yeah, she always has been.

- And if the viewers love it

as much as we do,

there's no telling

where this will go.

- I'm sorry, go?

- The new format

is really working.

We're just taking

the time to get

to know the place,

the people, so we want

to keep the show on

location, different locations

across the states.

As long as Hannah is up for it.

Too bad we'll have to find other

consultants though.

We can't afford to travel

everyone, of course.

You guys were a good team.

- Yeah, yeah, that's a shame.

- Excuse me.

- Of course.

- Can you believe it?

One quick sign off

and we're done.

- We just really need

you to up the energy.

- Energy?

- For the closing.

Add a little more jazz.

But not too much.

- Jazz?

We're rolling.

- I'm sorry, just a sec.

Hey.

- Everything okay?

- Yeah, just a quick thing.

I am super grateful

for this job,

I am, I'm also smart

and hard working,

and kind of funny,

but not on command.

I can't keep changing

who I am and doubting

what I'm doing, so

I'm just gonna be me

from here on out.

You hired me, and if

that's not what you want

anymore, sorry.

- Guess she can go rogue.

- It's been a wild five

weeks in my hometown

of Lewisburg.

- I can't believe you

have to fly out so early.

- You are not getting

up to drive me.

- I know, I know, I just thought

we'd have a little more time.

- Me too.

But I promise I'll

come back again soon.

Maybe next time, you'll let

me update that sun room.

If you want.

- We would love it.

- Yes.

Oh, hey, have you seen Jeff?

- Maybe this way.

- This is either a very

sweet or a very sad visual,

I can't decide.

Looking for an opponent?

- I thought you were

inside doing a thing.

- I was actually,

doing my thing.

I'm not sure what

it's gonna mean,

but I felt so good.

I told Wally, I'm

just gonna be myself,

and if they don't want that--

- Oh, they're gonna want that.

- How do you know?

- Because, you're amazing.

- You okay?

- Yeah, it's just, you know.

I'm bummed that

you're going tomorrow.

- Me too.

Well, luckily you're

just a flight away.

- Yeah, I should let

you get back to it.

- What's going on?

- Nothing, I just know

that your life is there

and mine is here.

- Are you kidding me?

- What?

- I thought that we

were just gonna see.

Isn't that what you said?

- That's what I want, but

it doesn't make sense.

- But nothing's changed.

- Hannah, the sky

is always gonna

be the limit for you.

Who knows where all

this work is gonna lead.

Hannah.

- What?

You know, we push each

other all the time,

on the small things.

We make each other

so much better,

but it's pointless.

Because when it really matters,

you don't want to be pushed

out of your comfort zone.

- I don't want to hold you back.

- I'm not the one you

should be worried about.

- Wait, can we please just...

- What?

I have to get back to the party.

- Yeah, so I think I'll make it

a working vacation,

conference shouldn't

take up that much

time, the girls

have been dying to

snorkel, and uh...

You good?

You've been pretty quiet.

- Yeah.

I'm fine.

- That's good.

You know, LA isn't

that far away.

- Oh, come on, man.

- Come on, it's not.

- Look, I appreciate it, I do,

but she deserves more

than long distance.

- I get that, I do, but--

- Look, I wish it made sense.

I do, but not for

somebody who's made sure

everything in their life

has been structurally sound.

- Right.

- Right.

- But I'm pretty sure love

isn't supposed to make sense.

You can't plan it,

you can't schedule it.

There's always

gonna be that risk.

Plus, you've been in

love with this girl

for as long as I

can remember, so.

- The usual?

- What?

- I don't know about

you, but I think

it's about time.

- For?

- Unpacking those boxes.

- Well, right now, I'm

finishing up with this.

- Well, we got another call,

a building they want to convert,

and since you did so well

on this last project...

I know this is maybe not exactly

what you pictured.

- Oh, that's just part of it.

Say you will come home

- Wally really said,

just do your thing

for the rest of the season?

- But keep him happy.

You know Wally.

- I'll take it.

- Wait, are you

seriously working

on your day off?

- Well, I finished my balcony,

something I've been

wanting to do forever.

- Try to relax too, okay?

- I'm basically done.

I ordered my favorite

food delivery.

- Good.

We'll rev it up tomorrow

and talk new locations.

- You bet.

- You doing all right?

- I'll be good.

You know.

- You always are.

- Hey, yes, Pete, good.

Come on up, I'm on the

balcony, I'll buzz you in.

Thanks.

- Delivery?

I guess you weren't

expecting me.

- You can say that again.

Jeff, wow.

What are you doing here?

- I was bringing you these.

- And then I, uh,

fortunately saw your

delivery guy at the door.

- You flew all the way

here to bring me donuts?

- I was hoping we

could start over,

but for real this time.

I've realized after

all these years

of trying to make it work,

we've always worked.

I've just been too

scared to commit

to the unknown.

Not anymore.

Wherever you go,

whatever it takes,

I want to be with you.

I think we make a pretty

great team together.

I think we could

be great anywhere.

- You really want to

see where this goes?

- Yeah, if you'll let me.

- How long are you here?

- Well, it's sort

of to be determined.

Kind of stepping out

of my comfort zone

a little bit here.

- It's a good look on you.

- You think so?

- Yeah.

- Is that a mustard couch?

I like it, it's just--

- Watch it, mister.

Just something you know

I feel your heartbeat, baby

Something surreal,

that look in your eyes

Just something you know
