How to Build a Sex Room (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - Different Kind of Family Room - full transcript
[indistinct chatter]
[woman] Like now?
-[Soriya] I'm gonna pee my pants!
-[Catherine] Okay, I'm doing it!
-[man] Oh my gosh!
-[woman squeals]
-[woman gasps]
-[man laughs]
Oh my gosh!
-Oh!
-[Soriya squeals]
[slow pop music playing]
Well, hello! Come in!
Oh my God! Look at this!
[Lester] It's not even the same room.
-[woman] Oh!
-[Prince] This is sick!
I wanted to give this room a moody feel.
I wanted to make this elegant.
So I focused on sensual colors,
beautiful gold,
that cobalt blue.
And I wanted that nod of maybe a dungeon
where you lock the door with a padlock,
so I found some beautiful padlocks,
and I brought those as decorative items
in the room as well.
It is a dungeon,
but it's a very luxury dungeon.
[Catherine] Gosh! [squeals]
-Oh my God! This is amazing.
-[Melanie] Do you wanna see the bathroom?
-[man] Yes.
-Come on.
[upbeat pop music playing]
♪ Come on ♪
♪ Baby, baby… ♪
[Soriya gasps] Look at the floor!
-And there's two showerheads.
-[Melanie] Yes, exactly.
♪ My skin's got shivers from you… ♪
This is amazing.
There's so many things you can do in here.
While I was designing this,
I had each of you in mind.
Aw!
Soriya, you asked for a drain,
so you can just wash it down
whenever you want.
I love the floor with the drain
because y'all know
how much I love water sports,
and, I mean, I love making a mess,
so just the thought of being able
to, like, clean everything up so easily
makes me super excited.
And Prince, I made nods to you around here
with lots of different types
of bondage rope.
[giggles]
♪ Sparks are flyin' in my head ♪
♪ Thoughts of you and what to say… ♪
[Melanie] Catherine, I wanted
to create a space for you
that feels warm and cozy.
And then, of course, Arturo.
Would you like to come with me?
Yes! Absolutely.
Follow me, my darling.
This is for you.
♪ Turn me on ♪
♪ Lay me down ♪
♪ Oh, my love… ♪
-[Melanie] If you want--
-Oh my--
So you can go in, and then you've got
your little peek-a-boo.
[all laugh]
I can see everything from there. So good.
-Do you want to come and have a look?
-[all] Yes!
I love all the toys. It's incredible!
♪ Turn me on ♪
♪ Lay me down ♪
♪ Oh, my love… ♪
[Lester] It's like
our own little sex toy store. [chuckles]
It makes me so happy.
I know how organized you are.
That's why I did it.
[Lester] There's padlocks
that are super fancy,
and all the chains and carabiners.
You can't tell whether you're going
into a climbing store or a dungeon.
[Melanie] Nate and Lester,
you know, you had said to me
that you wanted a cuddle puddle.
We did.
So here it is.
All nine feet and seven foot six.
Look at the pillows!
[hip-hop music playing]
I've also put on velvet panels.
Where you see a velvet panel,
you will see hard points.
And there was a reason for me doing that.
When somebody is restrained,
they're getting
a sort of like sensory play.
[Soriya squeals]
[indistinct chatter]
[Arturo] This bed is amazing!
Look, we've got nine feet of bed,
and we're still using four feet of it.
Is that big enough for you?
-Yes!
-It's perfect!
And you've got
your projector above your heads.
-[Nate] Yes.
-[Soriya] Yes!
And then an electric screen will come down
here in the middle of the room.
So that you can watch Arturo video.
[Soriya squeals]
If somebody asks questions
when the movie's on,
we can cuff 'em to the wall behind us.
Movie nights
are gonna get out of hand pretty quick.
[all laugh]
This, you can move around the room.
[funky music playing]
-[Melanie] You can have it where you want.
-It's on wheels!
-[Prince] Yeah, it is.
-It's on wheels!
And…
Oh my God.
I'm going in.
[all laugh]
[Soriya] Can I be the first one in?
-Are you okay in there?
-[Soriya] Yes, I'm okay.
[Melanie] Darling,
I'm just going to do this.
You can also pop this up.
-Oh!
-[Nate] No fucking way!
And over here, if you haven't noticed,
we've got a bondage chair.
[Prince] Is that a Sybian?
Oh my God, did you see the Sybian?
[Arturo] Oh my God!
There's a Sybian in the room.
[men chuckle]
[Prince] I've traveled the country,
I've seen all kinds of rooms like this
in people's houses,
and this one just blew everything else
I've seen out of the water.
-[Melanie] You okay?
-[Soriya] Yeah!
[man laughing]
[Soriya squeals]
-[Lester] I'm, like, drooling.
-Oh my God. This is so amazing.
When do we get to use it?
[upbeat pop music playing]
[Lester] All of our desires and wants
and everything that we all love about life
just meld so well together into one room.
Have some fun.
[all] Thank you so much, Melanie!
[all] Bye!
I mean, honestly, I just wanna, like,
lay here and snuggle with you guys.
-This is awesome.
-♪ We don't need the things ♪
♪ Don't need a reason ♪
♪ Baby, come with me ♪
♪ We're fallin' ♪
[vocalizing]
[song fades out]
We're definitely more on the discreet end.
We don't need a dungeon and whips hanging
and a wall full of dildos.
We definitely just want something
more, you know, relaxing and calming
and more about our, you know, connection.
Look at our lovely space.
This entire room is having a mural on it.
[Mike] The whole thing?
Yes. It's the outdoors coming in.
It's like you feel
like you're out with nature.
That's what I want them to feel
in this room.
For Meaghan and Dave, this relationship
is a second chance at love.
I want to create a secret Eden for them
so they can nurture
their commitment to each other.
I am giving them
a nature-inspired spa feel
using only natural materials and finishes.
I will wrap three walls in a forest mural,
bring in whitewashed wood flooring,
and on the back wall, I will install
floor-to-ceiling quartz tile,
complete with a cozy fireplace.
The other thing is, can we change this
to French doors, please?
-I would like to be able to walk out.
-Okay.
-Rather than slide and squeeze.
-Okay.
-[Melanie] Oh, this is gorgeous, isn't it?
-[Mike] Yep. What are we doing?
I want to put in a deck.
A deck?
Yeah. I want it to sort of like go
14, 15 feet out that way.
That's a really big deck.
It is a big deck, I know,
but I also want to put in a hot tub.
I want the fencing around here
and then a rail around here.
I would like a pergola over the top
so they can have
a nice, romantic type of thing, you know?
Okay. Make it magic?
-Make it look really gorgeous, okay?
-Okay.
[funky music playing]
♪ I'm feelin' it… ♪
So I'm gonna have
you just go ahead and lay down.
Put your head right here.
-[woman] All right.
-Oh. Okay.
Now, I'm going to have you
just go ahead and straddle him
in this position,
and let's see how you guys fit together.
Oh, nice.
See, the thing I like about this position
is you guys can have eye contact.
[both] Mm-hmm.
[both laugh]
Meaghan and Dave don't gravitate really
towards any kinks.
They are soft and sensual,
so I need to bring items of furniture
that lean to that sensuality
but also can help with their lovemaking.
-My feet can touch the ground.
-[woman] Your feet touch the ground.
That gives you some leverage
so that you can do your thing on there.
You can see how beautiful she looks
from this position.
So how do you guys feel about this?
-Don't hate it.
-[Dave] Comfortable.
A tantric chaise is really
an ergonomically designed chaise
which actually makes sexual positions
so much more fun and enjoyable.
It's basically the modern descendant
of an even fancier sex chair.
The siège d'amour was designed
in the 1890s
for Edward, Prince of Wales,
also known as Bertie.
Good old dirty Bertie kept his chair
at a famous Parisian bordello,
where he used to get into all kinds
of compromising positions,
sometimes with more than one woman
at a time.
You see, I'm not the kinkiest person
in the history of the British crown.
You can also turn around
and do some reverse cowgirl
in this position as well.
[Dave] Mm-hmm.
[woman] See? And you can get your feet
pretty much flat on the ground, I think.
So you can get
some movement in there with him.
So you can lean back on him.
Just lean back.
-[Meaghan] Hi!
-[woman] Wrap your arms around her.
-[Meaghan] Hi.
-So this can be another position too.
And this leaves room for you
to use your hands that are right there.
-[Dave] They wander.
-His hands are…
It's kind of relaxing and sensual.
[Melanie] Ms. Nicci is a tantric expert,
and I want her to go through the motions
and show them
how many different positions they can get.
♪ Ooh, like an animal ♪
♪ Like an animal… ♪
[Meaghan] Get on your knees, boy.
[Nicci] Ooh, look at that!
♪ Like an animal… ♪
[Nicci] Maybe if we can get
a proper height.
-[Meaghan] Hmm.
-[Nicci] Look at that.
♪ Ooh, like an animal… ♪
-Excellent.
-That's actually a good height.
-Not too shabby.
-[Nicci] Mm-hmm.
There's one more thing
I want to encourage them
to experiment with while we're here.
She mentioned to me that you were curious
about role-play and that type of thing,
and I'd love to hear, like,
have you guys tried it before?
A little bit. I mean…
My…
my acting is terrible,
so to be able
to develop a character and stick with it
without busting up laughing, or…
I'd say it's normal
to fall out of character
and to laugh and to have a good time.
It definitely doesn't have to be serious.
Part of role-play that is the fun part
is the play element of it,
and laughing and breaking character
can be fun.
-Do you want to go and play?
-Obviously.
-Oh, off you go.
-Let's try some on.
Let's see what kind of character
we can create here.
Since Meaghan has alopecia,
she's taking wigs on and off all day,
so this is the perfect opportunity
to get into role-play.
Let's pick something out
that's definitely different
from what you usually do.
Something maybe
he hasn't seen you do before.
[Meaghan] Okay.
My wheels were definitely turning.
Do you have any role-play fantasies
that you would love to see her act as?
I don't… I don't know.
Like, there are
some of the played-out ones,
like a nurse or a librarian
or something like that.
I don't wanna feel
like I have to develop the character
and his backstory, and…
-Oh, that's way too much, darling.
-I know.
-Darling, no.
-Like, I'm an oil tycoon from Texas--
-[Melanie] No, no, no. You do not need to…
-[laughs]
-I'm not… We're not--
-[gasps]
[Dave] Ooh!
The Avengers called.
They need us to help save the world.
-Oh, shit!
-Oh my God!
Look at that!
-[Dave] How does that feel?
-Hot.
-Oh my God. You have to turn around.
-Yeah, go all the way around.
-Yes? No? Maybe so?
-[Dave] Yes!
-[Nicci] Oh, yes.
-[Dave] Uh-huh.
The fact that she could put on
just a different color wig
and it would just change her whole look
was incredible.
It was just, whoo, pop.
What's your name
for your dark-haired lady?
-Victoria.
-[Dave] Ooh!
[Nicci] Ooh!
[giggles]
[Meaghan] Victoria is
a badass.
[Dave] Yeah, this would… This could work.

[song ends, birds tweeting]
The joke is, on our first date, I said,
"I have a lot of baggage,"
and I actually meant,
"I have a lot of shit."
Like, I come with 75 pairs of shoes.
We love getting dressed up together.
We love matching.
Like, we're always the most extravagantly…
Not "extravagantly."
That's giving us a lot of credit,
but I think extravagantly dressed.
We could never rob a bank because,
clearly, you're not missing us in a crowd.
[both laugh]
That's true. That's true.
[orchestral music playing]
-Hi!
-Hi!
-Oh my God!
-[both] Oh my God!
-Oh!
-It's so good to see you.
-Oh my goodness.
-Come in.
Hi, Bettie, Brody. Oh my God! I'm Melanie.
-So nice to meet you.
-Oh my God.
-Wonderful to finally meet you.
-This is so exciting!
Look at you both!
If we're not matching, we're not doing
it right. Gotta step it up.
I know, and look at this lovely room!
[Brody] Welcome.
-[Bettie] We've been working on it.
-[Melanie] A lovely space.
[both] Thank you.
What do you do for a living?
I am in hospitality by day
and a burlesque dancer by night.
Oh my God!
And I work in music.
I'm a music manager during the day,
and I do drag and draglesque by night,
and that's how we met actually.
-[Melanie] Oh my God!
-Yeah.
Brody Danger and Bettie Belladonna
are not our legal names,
but they are our performer names
and our stage names that we've chosen
and I think the way
that we prefer to be seen
by not only each other but by the world.
So we have this space downstairs
that we're hoping you'll help with
and turn into a gorgeous area.
So you want a sex room.
Would you like to tell me why?
First of all, we would love to have
a space that you create, for anything.
Just a general baseline.
But I think
having a really cool performer space
that we can get ready together
and have an intimate space
where, you know,
we can get into that right mindset
of turning into
the stunning, amazing people we are.
-That's fabulous.
-Yeah!
I think the ability to kind of separate
and, you know, turn off
our, like, muggle, everyday lives
and get into those personas
that I feel like we really embody
and prefer to operate in.
Oh, okay.
I met Bettie through performing,
and so I think that I have always been
wicked-attracted to her performing.
-Can we have a look at this space?
-[Bettie] Yes, absolutely.
-Okay.
-I will lead the way!
And so it's always fun to watch her
express herself in those ways,
and it's always a turn-on.
Okay, it's a lot of open space,
but no judgment, okay?
-I have a lot of stuff.
-[Brody] We have a lot of stuff.
Oh my God!
[jazz music playing]
The basement is full,
I mean full of clothes.
[Bettie] We've turned it
into a multi-purpose room,
so we'll actually rehearse down here.
We try to do makeup,
except for the lighting is shit.
Oh God, how many shoes do you have?
[Bettie] Over 75 pairs.
These should be red.
I have them in red. Hold on.
Oh my God!
[Bettie] This is the…
In my book,
you can have as many shoes as you want.
I'm a shoe whore as well.
-There's an awful lot going on in here.
-[laughs]
That's basically what the insides
of our brains look like all the time.
[Melanie] I'm sure.
There's a lot of glamour in this room.
They're definitely living
in a past era, style-wise.
They are a little bit '50s,
mid-century modern,
and a little bit of cutesy things.
Tell me,
what do you envisage in this room?
Part of our, you know,
making this the sex room
that we want it to be
is we love watching each other perform
and get ready and practice.
We want to be able to get ready together,
so we would love to have enough light
to actually put makeup on
and have it look good.
Right.
Putting on the makeup and getting ready
and talking to each other
and decompressing and…
Brody's checking me out,
I'm checking them out,
and the world is just slipping away, and…
It's the behind the scenes
that I think, to me,
is some of my favorite parts
of our relationship.
So we would love a bathtub,
like, a bomb bathtub. I just…
I love looking at them naked,
and I like just seeing bubbles.
We spent New Year's Eve at Bettie's hotel,
and they have
these amazing deep-soaking bathtubs.
I had never taken a bath
with a partner before,
and it was one of the most, like, amazing,
I feel like, bonding experiences.
-We've had shitty bathtubs since then.
-Ever since then.
So much of it is, like, having a space
that allows us to feel sexy,
both of us individually,
and also a place
where we feel sexy together.
Sort of like sexy dressing room
slash kinky area.
-Yes.
-Correct.
For Bettie and Brody,
dressing up and getting into character
is a real turn-on.
Can we go upstairs or something
and dig even delver… Delve even digger?
-Dig even delver? No.
-Yeah. You can dig. You can delve.
-You can dive. Whatever you'd like.
-Thank you.
This is not a standard BDSM room.
This is more of a fantasy room.
It's an alternative world.
Well, I just want you to know
that you are both in safe hands.
I could tell that
the second we opened the door.
Tell me a bit about the love story.
We met maybe in 2017.
We were both performing
on the burlesque scene,
and so we were, like…
Is it fair to say
"friends with sexual tension"?
I had a secret crush on her for a while.
And our relationship also started
over a lot of whiskey
and me just word-vomiting
how obsessed with you I was,
in a not cool way.
Before Brody, I just dated straight men.
When I finally kind of came to terms
with my sexuality,
I was in a fantastic relationship,
and I still felt like
there was something missing.
And I think that was when
Brody and I kind of started realizing
that our friendship
was more than a friendship,
and I had actual feelings.
Everything kind of clicked.
Everything made sense.
My life,
my existence, made more sense.
Oh my God, I'm totally gonna cry.
You child! What's happening?
[Bettie] We realized
that we couldn't be without each other.
We have been inseparable ever since.
[chuckles]
[Brody] I've only ever dated women.
I've never identified
with "lesbian" or "gay" necessarily.
Like, "queer" has always kind of been,
for me personally,
the all-encompassing term
that, yeah, incorporates,
you know, gender and sexuality
and kind of all of it.
I met Bettie
and was like, "Oh, this is what love is."
My pronouns are they/them.
For the longest time,
I felt like I was three different people.
Me with work and family,
and then Brody Danger,
who I'd created to be a super confident,
like, cool guy that people
wanted to hang out with.
Somewhere in between those two was Brody,
who I was still trying to figure out.
We've been helping each other,
I feel like, figuring out who we are.
[Bettie] We have found our true selves,
and we know now
that we want a space
that correlates to that.
[Brody] But now, we just…
We need a space to get naked in!
[Melanie] Absolutely.
Generally, when I meet my clients,
what I like to do
is bring a bag of tricks.
[Bettie squeals]
-That one's mine from downstairs?
-[Melanie] No.
There you go.
[sensual music playing]
You're clearly very comfortable with that,
so you are very much into the kink.
In the kink world,
everything is a little bit…
It's more open, and, you know,
you can kind of explore more.
What the fetish world gave me
was this sense of confidence
to say, "I absolutely love that,"
or, "That's not my cup of tea."
-[Bettie gasps] Oh, yay!
-[Brody] There you go. There you go.
[Bettie] Kink was a very large portion
of my sexual awakening.
Hi, floggy.
[Bettie purrs]
[Bettie] Yes!
But I'm legitimately scared
to talk to you about kink
because I feel there might be judgment.
I mean, I think I'm super ignorant,
so I'm intimidated.
You know, it can be scary,
but I trust you, so I feel like…
-I trust you.
-Oh!
-Yeah.
-That's neat.
I like pain, and I like tolerance,
and I like seeing what I can handle, and…
I like thumpy pain. [laughs]
Bettie is very much into this kink world,
and she is longing to have Brody join her
and experience more kink together.
So this should be a space
that turns the two of them on.
Not only am I going to give you
a kick-ass room, okay,
you might see me sooner than you think
because we are going out
on a couple of excursions together.
-Yay!
-Oh!
I'm not going to tell you what they are.
I'm going to surprise you.
-You're gonna do great.
-[both laugh]
[upbeat pop music playing]
♪ I like how this is goin' ♪
♪ I like how this is goin'… ♪
This room is a way
to take our kind of second chance at love
and don't settle for, you know,
just the mundane, everyday,
you know, peck-on-the-cheek type of stuff
that most people kind of get stuck into.
-Complacency.
-Yeah, complacency.
[Melanie gasps]
Doesn't this remind you
of walking in a forest?
Yeah.
[Melanie] Meaghan and Dave
love the outdoor life,
so I'm loading this room up
with natural materials.
It'll evoke a private oasis
with no distractions.
-Can I have a look at this?
-Yes. Yes.
[Melanie] Oh, perfect.
-[Melanie] Oh, yummy!
-[Mike] Yeah?
Oh! [strains]
-Yeah. Nice and heavy.
-Oh, can you just put it up there?
[Mike] You are such a faker.
-It's gonna be the feature wall.
-[Mike] Yep.
-[Melanie] It's gonna look gorgeous.
-Fireplace here.
This tone I'm pulling in
from the carpet, the area rug,
and these beanbags that I'm putting in.
Beanbags?
Are beanbags really that sexy?
Beanbags, to me, are like fun house.
-But you had the big, round bean bags?
-Yeah.
These are actually triangular in shape,
so they have a little [inhales] up there.
Are they the shape of a vagina?
[playful music]
Okay, so let's get this straight.
Vagina is on the inside, darling.
Oh, labia.
-So it's the labia and all the folds.
-Labia minora, labia majora.
-Oh my God, yes.
-I know my stuff sometimes.
-Not much, but a little bit.
-Clitoris?
-Clitoris.
-It's not cli-tor-is. It's clitoris.
I think that's like
tomay-to, tomah-to, right?
-No, it's clitoris, not cli-tor-is.
-Cli-tor-is.
It's clitoris.
"Cli-tor-is" sounds much more scientific.
-"Clitoris" sounds much more beautiful.
-"Clitoris" sounds a little sexy.
Cli-tor-is sounds
like your doctor's talking to you.
It's not a medical problem, darling.
It's an erogenous zone.
Say it like you mean it.
So say "clitoris" nicely.
-Clitoris.
-You see how sexy that sounds?
It rolls right off the tongue.
And when did you say you'd be finished?
[laughs]

-Hi!
-Hey!
How are you?
Excuse me one moment. I do know this man.
How are you, sweetheart?
-[Dave] Good to see you.
-Good to see you.
This is Meaghan's best friend, Alex.
-Hi, I'm Alex.
-Hi, Alex. Lovely to meet you.
Dave has reached out to me
and asked me to help
with the proposal to Meaghan.
[Melanie] So today, I have Dave meet me
with Meaghan's best friend, Alex,
at a restaurant
so we can go over the plans
of how this is all going to pan out.
Are you getting down on one knee?
The whole shebang?
-Oh, I'll have to.
-Oh my God!
[Melanie] So I'm building you a deck,
so I think…
Look at her. She's like,
"Oh my God, are you kidding me?"
"Oh my God."
So I think maybe we should do something
like on the deck or something.
[Dave] We can do that.
I like you doing it in the backyard
'cause you guys are so outdoorsy.
-Yeah.
-[Alex] I think it makes sense back there.
-I think so as well.
-[Dave] I agree.
-Maybe we can stage it outside.
-Can we have it somewhere?
I think we should do that.
-Like a hide-a-rock thing.
-We'll do a hide the ring.
Now, I have to ask you,
where have you got the ring at this point?
-In my pocket.
-That's a big giveaway.
"Honey, are you pleased to see me,
or is that a box in there?" You know…
She'll know if there's an extra bulge,
and not that kind of bulge.
Not the one that's
"I'm pleased to see you" bulge.
If you wanted to take it now, you could.
-If it's okay with you and you trust me?
-[Dave] Sure.
[gasps]
-Oh, may I pick it out?
-[Dave] Yes.
-[Dave] I think it'll suit her just fine--
-Oh my God, there's gonna be tears.
-Yeah.
-[Melanie] Oh!
I promise you, I'll keep it very safe.
[pop music playing]
I think that I learned early on
you should be able to talk about sex.
It shouldn't be taboo.
You should have the conversation
of "What do you like and not like?"
And I think that made you
wanna, like, dry heave at first
and was like, "We'll ease into this."
We'll ease into it.
-This is gonna be an unusual room for us.
-Okay.
Because this is going to be a glamorous,
like, Hollywood-style dressing room.
Oh, yeah?
But with elements of kink and sex.
Oh, so dressing room-esque
with a little kink.
-Little kink.
-Just a touch of kink.
Just a touch of kink.
Okay, guess what I want
in this room, straight off the bat?
Bam!
Um, probably wallpaper.
Oh, yeah, baby!
[funky music playing]
[Melanie] First, we have to get rid
of the very '70s wall paneling
and replace it with a luxe,
art-deco-inspired wallpaper
to set the stage
for old Hollywood glamour.
I am bringing in
a theatrical lighted vanity
for professional-level hair and makeup.
But the real showpiece
for this decadent dressing room
will be a free-standing deep-soaking tub,
big enough for two.
Down this way,
I'm gonna have, like, a runway
so they can walk down there
and then practice there.
-Like a model runway?
-Like a model runway, yeah.
Not like that, no.
Oh, yeah.
I'm like a model.
Are you kidding me? Look at this.
[Melanie] And on the far end,
an entire wall of mirrors
so they can see
all their performances and pleasures.
-[electronic music playing]
-[Mike] Whoo!
[Mike hums]
Come on, you're modeling men's clothing.
Oh my God. Yes.
Okay. Come on, sell it.
Sell it!
Oh my God.
-[both] Too much show.
-Not enough model.
Oh, I can't wait to get started.
Can I have a red hat?
Or maybe I'd like a pink hat.
Um, I got your name on that one.
Best I can do.
[pop music playing]
-[Melanie gasps]
-[Mike] Oh, look at that.
-[Melanie] That's vintage wallpaper.
-Right.
There might already have been
a '70s sex room down here before.

After visiting with Mistress Nicci,
I knew the tantric chaise
was a must for this room.
[Mike] Oh, yeah.
-Isn't that gorgeous?
-[Mike] Yep.
[Melanie] I chose creamy white leather
because it goes
with this soothing, relaxing
spa-like room
that Meaghan and Dave are looking for.
-All right.
-Yeah. All right, darling.
Because I was bringing in
the tantric chaise,
I knew that I wanted
to bring everything down onto floor level.
Oh my God. I need one of these.
This is gorgeous.
I want them to experience having sex
on the floor in a more comfortable way.
Oh, yeah, baby. I got it right.
I wanted to bring in a hot tub
because it brings that spa feel
out onto the deck.
I'm wondering
if we can shunt this back maybe an inch.
Oh, yeah, 'cause hot tubs are light.
It's supposed to be a private paradise,
so why not bring in a spa, right?
These are cool.
-[Melanie] Oh!
-I like these.
-These are begonias.
-[Mike] What did you call me?
Oh, I love those colors. Oh, look at them!
Don't you get the feeling of a meadow?
Stop doing that on purpose.
-Stop doing that on purpose!
-[laughs]
Their house backs onto a beautiful meadow.
Oh my God, it's gonna look so gorgeous.
And this whole idea was for me
to bring that meadow onto their deck.
I got it.

-I'm gonna put 'em behind it, like so.

-Oh my goodness.

Yes, we are.
It's gonna be fun.
-It's time.
-Let's go. Come on! Let's go.
[Melanie] Oh my God.
I am so excited about this.
What I love about this room
is that you do not need to be kinky
to be sensual or sexual.
You know, sex rooms are for everyone.
[exhales]
Okay, you can come in now.
Oh my God.
[laughs]
-This is insane.

Well, hello! Come in!
Oh my God! Look at this!
[Lester] It's not even the same room.
-[woman] Oh!
-[Prince] This is sick!
I wanted to give this room a moody feel.
I wanted to make this elegant.
So I focused on sensual colors,
beautiful gold,
that cobalt blue.
And I wanted that nod of maybe a dungeon
where you lock the door with a padlock,
so I found some beautiful padlocks,
and I brought those as decorative items
in the room as well.
It is a dungeon,
but it's a very luxury dungeon.

While I was designing this,
I had each of you in mind.
Aw!
Soriya, you asked for a drain,
so you can just wash it down
whenever you want.
I love the floor with the drain
because y'all know
how much I love water sports,
and, I mean, I love making a mess,
so just the thought of being able
to, like, clean everything up so easily
makes me super excited.
And Prince, I made nods to you around here
with lots of different types
of bondage rope.

It makes me so happy.
I know how organized you are.
That's why I did it.
[Lester] There's padlocks
that are super fancy,
and all the chains and carabiners.
You can't tell whether you're going
into a climbing store or a dungeon.
[Melanie] Nate and Lester,
you know, you had said to me
that you wanted a cuddle puddle.
We did.
So here it is.
All nine feet and seven foot six.
Look at the pillows!
[hip-hop music playing]
I've also put on velvet panels.
Where you see a velvet panel,
you will see hard points.
And there was a reason for me doing that.
When somebody is restrained,
they're getting
a sort of like sensory play.
[Soriya squeals]
[indistinct chatter]
[Arturo] This bed is amazing!
Look, we've got nine feet of bed,
and we're still using four feet of it.
Is that big enough for you?
-Yes!
-It's perfect!
And you've got
your projector above your heads.
-[Nate] Yes.
-[Soriya] Yes!
And then an electric screen will come down
here in the middle of the room.
So that you can watch Arturo video.
[Soriya squeals]
If somebody asks questions
when the movie's on,
we can cuff 'em to the wall behind us.
Movie nights
are gonna get out of hand pretty quick.
[all laugh]
This, you can move around the room.
[funky music playing]
-[Melanie] You can have it where you want.
-It's on wheels!
-[Prince] Yeah, it is.
-It's on wheels!
And…
Oh my God.
I'm going in.
[all laugh]
[Soriya] Can I be the first one in?
-Are you okay in there?
-[Soriya] Yes, I'm okay.
[Melanie] Darling,
I'm just going to do this.
You can also pop this up.
-Oh!
-[Nate] No fucking way!
And over here, if you haven't noticed,
we've got a bondage chair.
[Prince] Is that a Sybian?
Oh my God, did you see the Sybian?
[Arturo] Oh my God!
There's a Sybian in the room.
[men chuckle]
[Prince] I've traveled the country,
I've seen all kinds of rooms like this
in people's houses,
and this one just blew everything else
I've seen out of the water.
-[Melanie] You okay?
-[Soriya] Yeah!
[man laughing]
[Soriya squeals]
-[Lester] I'm, like, drooling.
-Oh my God. This is so amazing.
When do we get to use it?
[upbeat pop music playing]
[Lester] All of our desires and wants
and everything that we all love about life
just meld so well together into one room.
Have some fun.
[all] Thank you so much, Melanie!
[all] Bye!

lay here and snuggle with you guys.

[vocalizing]
[song fades out]
We're definitely more on the discreet end.
We don't need a dungeon and whips hanging
and a wall full of dildos.
We definitely just want something
more, you know, relaxing and calming
and more about our, you know, connection.
Look at our lovely space.
This entire room is having a mural on it.
[Mike] The whole thing?
Yes. It's the outdoors coming in.
It's like you feel
like you're out with nature.
That's what I want them to feel
in this room.
For Meaghan and Dave, this relationship
is a second chance at love.
I want to create a secret Eden for them
so they can nurture
their commitment to each other.
I am giving them
a nature-inspired spa feel
using only natural materials and finishes.
I will wrap three walls in a forest mural,
bring in whitewashed wood flooring,
and on the back wall, I will install
floor-to-ceiling quartz tile,
complete with a cozy fireplace.
The other thing is, can we change this
to French doors, please?
-I would like to be able to walk out.
-Okay.
-Rather than slide and squeeze.
-Okay.
-[Melanie] Oh, this is gorgeous, isn't it?
-[Mike] Yep. What are we doing?
I want to put in a deck.
A deck?
Yeah. I want it to sort of like go
14, 15 feet out that way.
That's a really big deck.
It is a big deck, I know,
but I also want to put in a hot tub.
I want the fencing around here
and then a rail around here.
I would like a pergola over the top
so they can have
a nice, romantic type of thing, you know?
Okay. Make it magic?
-Make it look really gorgeous, okay?
-Okay.
[funky music playing]
♪ I'm feelin' it… ♪
So I'm gonna have
you just go ahead and lay down.
Put your head right here.
-[woman] All right.
-Oh. Okay.
Now, I'm going to have you
just go ahead and straddle him
in this position,
and let's see how you guys fit together.
Oh, nice.
See, the thing I like about this position
is you guys can have eye contact.
[both] Mm-hmm.
[both laugh]
Meaghan and Dave don't gravitate really
towards any kinks.
They are soft and sensual,
so I need to bring items of furniture
that lean to that sensuality
but also can help with their lovemaking.
-My feet can touch the ground.
-[woman] Your feet touch the ground.
That gives you some leverage
so that you can do your thing on there.
You can see how beautiful she looks
from this position.
So how do you guys feel about this?
-Don't hate it.
-[Dave] Comfortable.
A tantric chaise is really
an ergonomically designed chaise
which actually makes sexual positions
so much more fun and enjoyable.
It's basically the modern descendant
of an even fancier sex chair.
The siège d'amour was designed
in the 1890s
for Edward, Prince of Wales,
also known as Bertie.
Good old dirty Bertie kept his chair
at a famous Parisian bordello,
where he used to get into all kinds
of compromising positions,
sometimes with more than one woman
at a time.
You see, I'm not the kinkiest person
in the history of the British crown.
You can also turn around
and do some reverse cowgirl
in this position as well.
[Dave] Mm-hmm.
[woman] See? And you can get your feet
pretty much flat on the ground, I think.
So you can get
some movement in there with him.
So you can lean back on him.
Just lean back.
-[Meaghan] Hi!
-[woman] Wrap your arms around her.
-[Meaghan] Hi.
-So this can be another position too.
And this leaves room for you
to use your hands that are right there.
-[Dave] They wander.
-His hands are…
It's kind of relaxing and sensual.
[Melanie] Ms. Nicci is a tantric expert,
and I want her to go through the motions
and show them
how many different positions they can get.
♪ Ooh, like an animal ♪
♪ Like an animal… ♪
[Meaghan] Get on your knees, boy.
[Nicci] Ooh, look at that!
♪ Like an animal… ♪
[Nicci] Maybe if we can get
a proper height.
-[Meaghan] Hmm.
-[Nicci] Look at that.
♪ Ooh, like an animal… ♪
-Excellent.
-That's actually a good height.
-Not too shabby.
-[Nicci] Mm-hmm.
There's one more thing
I want to encourage them
to experiment with while we're here.
She mentioned to me that you were curious
about role-play and that type of thing,
and I'd love to hear, like,
have you guys tried it before?
A little bit. I mean…
My…
my acting is terrible,
so to be able
to develop a character and stick with it
without busting up laughing, or…
I'd say it's normal
to fall out of character
and to laugh and to have a good time.
It definitely doesn't have to be serious.
Part of role-play that is the fun part
is the play element of it,
and laughing and breaking character
can be fun.
-Do you want to go and play?
-Obviously.
-Oh, off you go.
-Let's try some on.
Let's see what kind of character
we can create here.
Since Meaghan has alopecia,
she's taking wigs on and off all day,
so this is the perfect opportunity
to get into role-play.
Let's pick something out
that's definitely different
from what you usually do.
Something maybe
he hasn't seen you do before.
[Meaghan] Okay.
My wheels were definitely turning.
Do you have any role-play fantasies
that you would love to see her act as?
I don't… I don't know.
Like, there are
some of the played-out ones,
like a nurse or a librarian
or something like that.
I don't wanna feel
like I have to develop the character
and his backstory, and…
-Oh, that's way too much, darling.
-I know.
-Darling, no.
-Like, I'm an oil tycoon from Texas--
-[Melanie] No, no, no. You do not need to…
-[laughs]
-I'm not… We're not--
-[gasps]
[Dave] Ooh!
The Avengers called.
They need us to help save the world.
-Oh, shit!
-Oh my God!
Look at that!
-[Dave] How does that feel?
-Hot.
-Oh my God. You have to turn around.
-Yeah, go all the way around.
-Yes? No? Maybe so?
-[Dave] Yes!
-[Nicci] Oh, yes.
-[Dave] Uh-huh.
The fact that she could put on
just a different color wig
and it would just change her whole look
was incredible.
It was just, whoo, pop.
What's your name
for your dark-haired lady?
-Victoria.
-[Dave] Ooh!
[Nicci] Ooh!
[giggles]
[Meaghan] Victoria is
a badass.
[Dave] Yeah, this would… This could work.

The joke is, on our first date, I said,
"I have a lot of baggage,"
and I actually meant,
"I have a lot of shit."
Like, I come with 75 pairs of shoes.
We love getting dressed up together.
We love matching.
Like, we're always the most extravagantly…
Not "extravagantly."
That's giving us a lot of credit,
but I think extravagantly dressed.
We could never rob a bank because,
clearly, you're not missing us in a crowd.
[both laugh]
That's true. That's true.
[orchestral music playing]
-Hi!
-Hi!
-Oh my God!
-[both] Oh my God!
-Oh!
-It's so good to see you.
-Oh my goodness.
-Come in.
Hi, Bettie, Brody. Oh my God! I'm Melanie.
-So nice to meet you.
-Oh my God.
-Wonderful to finally meet you.
-This is so exciting!
Look at you both!
If we're not matching, we're not doing
it right. Gotta step it up.
I know, and look at this lovely room!
[Brody] Welcome.
-[Bettie] We've been working on it.
-[Melanie] A lovely space.
[both] Thank you.
What do you do for a living?
I am in hospitality by day
and a burlesque dancer by night.
Oh my God!
And I work in music.
I'm a music manager during the day,
and I do drag and draglesque by night,
and that's how we met actually.
-[Melanie] Oh my God!
-Yeah.
Brody Danger and Bettie Belladonna
are not our legal names,
but they are our performer names
and our stage names that we've chosen
and I think the way
that we prefer to be seen
by not only each other but by the world.
So we have this space downstairs
that we're hoping you'll help with
and turn into a gorgeous area.
So you want a sex room.
Would you like to tell me why?
First of all, we would love to have
a space that you create, for anything.
Just a general baseline.
But I think
having a really cool performer space
that we can get ready together
and have an intimate space
where, you know,
we can get into that right mindset
of turning into
the stunning, amazing people we are.
-That's fabulous.
-Yeah!
I think the ability to kind of separate
and, you know, turn off
our, like, muggle, everyday lives
and get into those personas
that I feel like we really embody
and prefer to operate in.
Oh, okay.
I met Bettie through performing,
and so I think that I have always been
wicked-attracted to her performing.
-Can we have a look at this space?
-[Bettie] Yes, absolutely.
-Okay.
-I will lead the way!
And so it's always fun to watch her
express herself in those ways,
and it's always a turn-on.
Okay, it's a lot of open space,
but no judgment, okay?
-I have a lot of stuff.
-[Brody] We have a lot of stuff.
Oh my God!
[jazz music playing]
The basement is full,
I mean full of clothes.
[Bettie] We've turned it
into a multi-purpose room,
so we'll actually rehearse down here.
We try to do makeup,
except for the lighting is shit.
Oh God, how many shoes do you have?
[Bettie] Over 75 pairs.
These should be red.
I have them in red. Hold on.
Oh my God!
[Bettie] This is the…
In my book,
you can have as many shoes as you want.
I'm a shoe whore as well.
-There's an awful lot going on in here.
-[laughs]
That's basically what the insides
of our brains look like all the time.
[Melanie] I'm sure.
There's a lot of glamour in this room.
They're definitely living
in a past era, style-wise.
They are a little bit '50s,
mid-century modern,
and a little bit of cutesy things.
Tell me,
what do you envisage in this room?
Part of our, you know,
making this the sex room
that we want it to be
is we love watching each other perform
and get ready and practice.
We want to be able to get ready together,
so we would love to have enough light
to actually put makeup on
and have it look good.
Right.
Putting on the makeup and getting ready
and talking to each other
and decompressing and…
Brody's checking me out,
I'm checking them out,
and the world is just slipping away, and…
It's the behind the scenes
that I think, to me,
is some of my favorite parts
of our relationship.
So we would love a bathtub,
like, a bomb bathtub. I just…
I love looking at them naked,
and I like just seeing bubbles.
We spent New Year's Eve at Bettie's hotel,
and they have
these amazing deep-soaking bathtubs.
I had never taken a bath
with a partner before,
and it was one of the most, like, amazing,
I feel like, bonding experiences.
-We've had shitty bathtubs since then.
-Ever since then.
So much of it is, like, having a space
that allows us to feel sexy,
both of us individually,
and also a place
where we feel sexy together.
Sort of like sexy dressing room
slash kinky area.
-Yes.
-Correct.
For Bettie and Brody,
dressing up and getting into character
is a real turn-on.
Can we go upstairs or something
and dig even delver… Delve even digger?
-Dig even delver? No.
-Yeah. You can dig. You can delve.
-You can dive. Whatever you'd like.
-Thank you.
This is not a standard BDSM room.
This is more of a fantasy room.
It's an alternative world.
Well, I just want you to know
that you are both in safe hands.
I could tell that
the second we opened the door.
Tell me a bit about the love story.
We met maybe in 2017.
We were both performing
on the burlesque scene,
and so we were, like…
Is it fair to say
"friends with sexual tension"?
I had a secret crush on her for a while.
And our relationship also started
over a lot of whiskey
and me just word-vomiting
how obsessed with you I was,
in a not cool way.
Before Brody, I just dated straight men.
When I finally kind of came to terms
with my sexuality,
I was in a fantastic relationship,
and I still felt like
there was something missing.
And I think that was when
Brody and I kind of started realizing
that our friendship
was more than a friendship,
and I had actual feelings.
Everything kind of clicked.
Everything made sense.
My life,
my existence, made more sense.
Oh my God, I'm totally gonna cry.
You child! What's happening?
[Bettie] We realized
that we couldn't be without each other.
We have been inseparable ever since.
[chuckles]
[Brody] I've only ever dated women.
I've never identified
with "lesbian" or "gay" necessarily.
Like, "queer" has always kind of been,
for me personally,
the all-encompassing term
that, yeah, incorporates,
you know, gender and sexuality
and kind of all of it.
I met Bettie
and was like, "Oh, this is what love is."
My pronouns are they/them.
For the longest time,
I felt like I was three different people.
Me with work and family,
and then Brody Danger,
who I'd created to be a super confident,
like, cool guy that people
wanted to hang out with.
Somewhere in between those two was Brody,
who I was still trying to figure out.
We've been helping each other,
I feel like, figuring out who we are.
[Bettie] We have found our true selves,
and we know now
that we want a space
that correlates to that.
[Brody] But now, we just…
We need a space to get naked in!
[Melanie] Absolutely.
Generally, when I meet my clients,
what I like to do
is bring a bag of tricks.
[Bettie squeals]
-That one's mine from downstairs?
-[Melanie] No.
There you go.
[sensual music playing]
You're clearly very comfortable with that,
so you are very much into the kink.
In the kink world,
everything is a little bit…
It's more open, and, you know,
you can kind of explore more.
What the fetish world gave me
was this sense of confidence
to say, "I absolutely love that,"
or, "That's not my cup of tea."
-[Bettie gasps] Oh, yay!
-[Brody] There you go. There you go.
[Bettie] Kink was a very large portion
of my sexual awakening.
Hi, floggy.
[Bettie purrs]
[Bettie] Yes!
But I'm legitimately scared
to talk to you about kink
because I feel there might be judgment.
I mean, I think I'm super ignorant,
so I'm intimidated.
You know, it can be scary,
but I trust you, so I feel like…
-I trust you.
-Oh!
-Yeah.
-That's neat.
I like pain, and I like tolerance,
and I like seeing what I can handle, and…
I like thumpy pain. [laughs]
Bettie is very much into this kink world,
and she is longing to have Brody join her
and experience more kink together.
So this should be a space
that turns the two of them on.
Not only am I going to give you
a kick-ass room, okay,
you might see me sooner than you think
because we are going out
on a couple of excursions together.
-Yay!
-Oh!
I'm not going to tell you what they are.
I'm going to surprise you.
-You're gonna do great.
-[both laugh]

This room is a way
to take our kind of second chance at love
and don't settle for, you know,
just the mundane, everyday,
you know, peck-on-the-cheek type of stuff
that most people kind of get stuck into.
-Complacency.
-Yeah, complacency.
[Melanie gasps]
Doesn't this remind you
of walking in a forest?
Yeah.
[Melanie] Meaghan and Dave
love the outdoor life,
so I'm loading this room up
with natural materials.
It'll evoke a private oasis
with no distractions.
-Can I have a look at this?
-Yes. Yes.
[Melanie] Oh, perfect.
-[Melanie] Oh, yummy!
-[Mike] Yeah?
Oh! [strains]
-Yeah. Nice and heavy.
-Oh, can you just put it up there?
[Mike] You are such a faker.
-It's gonna be the feature wall.
-[Mike] Yep.
-[Melanie] It's gonna look gorgeous.
-Fireplace here.
This tone I'm pulling in
from the carpet, the area rug,
and these beanbags that I'm putting in.
Beanbags?
Are beanbags really that sexy?
Beanbags, to me, are like fun house.
-But you had the big, round bean bags?
-Yeah.
These are actually triangular in shape,
so they have a little [inhales] up there.
Are they the shape of a vagina?
[playful music]
Okay, so let's get this straight.
Vagina is on the inside, darling.
Oh, labia.
-So it's the labia and all the folds.
-Labia minora, labia majora.
-Oh my God, yes.
-I know my stuff sometimes.
-Not much, but a little bit.
-Clitoris?
-Clitoris.
-It's not cli-tor-is. It's clitoris.
I think that's like
tomay-to, tomah-to, right?
-No, it's clitoris, not cli-tor-is.
-Cli-tor-is.
It's clitoris.
"Cli-tor-is" sounds much more scientific.
-"Clitoris" sounds much more beautiful.
-"Clitoris" sounds a little sexy.
Cli-tor-is sounds
like your doctor's talking to you.
It's not a medical problem, darling.
It's an erogenous zone.
Say it like you mean it.
So say "clitoris" nicely.
-Clitoris.
-You see how sexy that sounds?
It rolls right off the tongue.
And when did you say you'd be finished?

-Hi!
-Hey!
How are you?
Excuse me one moment. I do know this man.
How are you, sweetheart?
-[Dave] Good to see you.
-Good to see you.
This is Meaghan's best friend, Alex.
-Hi, I'm Alex.
-Hi, Alex. Lovely to meet you.
Dave has reached out to me
and asked me to help
with the proposal to Meaghan.
[Melanie] So today, I have Dave meet me
with Meaghan's best friend, Alex,
at a restaurant
so we can go over the plans
of how this is all going to pan out.
Are you getting down on one knee?
The whole shebang?
-Oh, I'll have to.
-Oh my God!
[Melanie] So I'm building you a deck,
so I think…
Look at her. She's like,
"Oh my God, are you kidding me?"
"Oh my God."
So I think maybe we should do something
like on the deck or something.
[Dave] We can do that.
I like you doing it in the backyard
'cause you guys are so outdoorsy.
-Yeah.
-[Alex] I think it makes sense back there.
-I think so as well.
-[Dave] I agree.
-Maybe we can stage it outside.
-Can we have it somewhere?
I think we should do that.
-Like a hide-a-rock thing.
-We'll do a hide the ring.
Now, I have to ask you,
where have you got the ring at this point?
-In my pocket.
-That's a big giveaway.
"Honey, are you pleased to see me,
or is that a box in there?" You know…
She'll know if there's an extra bulge,
and not that kind of bulge.
Not the one that's
"I'm pleased to see you" bulge.
If you wanted to take it now, you could.
-If it's okay with you and you trust me?
-[Dave] Sure.
[gasps]
-Oh, may I pick it out?
-[Dave] Yes.
-[Dave] I think it'll suit her just fine--
-Oh my God, there's gonna be tears.
-Yeah.
-[Melanie] Oh!
I promise you, I'll keep it very safe.
[pop music playing]
I think that I learned early on
you should be able to talk about sex.
It shouldn't be taboo.
You should have the conversation
of "What do you like and not like?"
And I think that made you
wanna, like, dry heave at first
and was like, "We'll ease into this."
We'll ease into it.
-This is gonna be an unusual room for us.
-Okay.
Because this is going to be a glamorous,
like, Hollywood-style dressing room.
Oh, yeah?
But with elements of kink and sex.
Oh, so dressing room-esque
with a little kink.
-Little kink.
-Just a touch of kink.
Just a touch of kink.
Okay, guess what I want
in this room, straight off the bat?
Bam!
Um, probably wallpaper.
Oh, yeah, baby!
[funky music playing]
[Melanie] First, we have to get rid
of the very '70s wall paneling
and replace it with a luxe,
art-deco-inspired wallpaper
to set the stage
for old Hollywood glamour.
I am bringing in
a theatrical lighted vanity
for professional-level hair and makeup.
But the real showpiece
for this decadent dressing room
will be a free-standing deep-soaking tub,
big enough for two.
Down this way,
I'm gonna have, like, a runway
so they can walk down there
and then practice there.
-Like a model runway?
-Like a model runway, yeah.
Not like that, no.
Oh, yeah.
I'm like a model.
Are you kidding me? Look at this.
[Melanie] And on the far end,
an entire wall of mirrors
so they can see
all their performances and pleasures.
-[electronic music playing]
-[Mike] Whoo!
[Mike hums]
Come on, you're modeling men's clothing.
Oh my God. Yes.
Okay. Come on, sell it.
Sell it!
Oh my God.
-[both] Too much show.
-Not enough model.
Oh, I can't wait to get started.
Can I have a red hat?
Or maybe I'd like a pink hat.
Um, I got your name on that one.
Best I can do.
[pop music playing]
-[Melanie gasps]
-[Mike] Oh, look at that.
-[Melanie] That's vintage wallpaper.
-Right.
There might already have been
a '70s sex room down here before.

After visiting with Mistress Nicci,
I knew the tantric chaise
was a must for this room.
[Mike] Oh, yeah.
-Isn't that gorgeous?
-[Mike] Yep.
[Melanie] I chose creamy white leather
because it goes
with this soothing, relaxing
spa-like room
that Meaghan and Dave are looking for.
-All right.
-Yeah. All right, darling.
Because I was bringing in
the tantric chaise,
I knew that I wanted
to bring everything down onto floor level.
Oh my God. I need one of these.
This is gorgeous.
I want them to experience having sex
on the floor in a more comfortable way.
Oh, yeah, baby. I got it right.
I wanted to bring in a hot tub
because it brings that spa feel
out onto the deck.
I'm wondering
if we can shunt this back maybe an inch.
Oh, yeah, 'cause hot tubs are light.
It's supposed to be a private paradise,
so why not bring in a spa, right?
These are cool.
-[Melanie] Oh!
-I like these.
-These are begonias.
-[Mike] What did you call me?
Oh, I love those colors. Oh, look at them!
Don't you get the feeling of a meadow?
Stop doing that on purpose.
-Stop doing that on purpose!

Their house backs onto a beautiful meadow.
Oh my God, it's gonna look so gorgeous.
And this whole idea was for me
to bring that meadow onto their deck.
I got it.

-I'm gonna put 'em behind it, like so.
