Insane Pools Off the Deep End (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - In Hot Water - full transcript

I'M LUCAS CONGDON,
OWNER OF LUCAS LAGOONS,

AND WE'RE REVOLUTIONIZING
OUTDOOR LIVING

ONE BACKYARD AT A TIME.

MY GOAL IS TO CREATE
A JAW-DROPPING,

OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD PARADISE.

****!

A LUCAS LAGOONS PROJECT
ISN'T JUST A POOL,

IT'S AN EXPERIENCE.

COME ON OUT!

THIS IS INCREDIBLE.
WOW.

I WANT TO CRY.
IT'S, LIKE, BEAUTIFUL!



MY GOD.

I HOPE
YOU'RE CRYING WITH JOY.

YES.
MY JOB IS TO TAKE THEIR DREAMS

AND MAKE THEM BIGGER THAN
THEY COULD EVER IMAGINE.

IT'S ALWAYS A WILD RIDE
WITH LUCAS LAGOONS.

CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY
DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS

SO, I'M ON MY WAY OUT TO SEE
HENRY AND VALERIE TAYLOR.

THEY LIVE OUT EAST IN BRADENTON.

THEY'RE CLOSER TO THE WETLANDS
AND THE PRESERVE.

THEY'VE HAD A COUPLE OTHER
POOL BUILDERS OUT THERE.

NO ONE REALLY GETS
HOW TO BUILD WHAT THEY WANT.

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE
WHAT THEY HAVE FOR ME.

HEY, HOW ARE YOU?

HEY. GOOD.



I'M VALERIE TAYLOR.

MY HUSBAND, HENRY.

GLAD TO MEET YOU.

HEY, HENRY.
YOU, TOO.

HENRY AND I MET
IN A BEAUTY SALON

AT A TIME WHEN HENRY HAD HAIR.

LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT
A BEAUTIFUL HOME HERE.

DID YOU GUY'S BY THIS
OR HAVE IT BUILT?

THIS IS
A CUSTOM-BUILT HOME.

WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR 10 YEARS.

IT TOOK A LONG TIME
FOR US TO GET HERE.

WE LIVED IN A 1,000-SQUARE-FOOT
CONDOMINIUM.

WE SAID WE WEREN'T GONNA PUT ANY
MORE MONEY IN THIS PLACE.

WE DIDN'T BUY FURNITURE.

WE SCRIMPED AND WE SCRAPED

AND WE SAVED UP TO MOVE.

I MEAN, I FEEL REALLY LUCKY
THAT YOU GUYS WAITED 10 YEARS.

YOU'RE JUST A LITTLE BABY,
RIGHT?

10 YEARS AGO,
YOU WEREN'T INTO POOLS YET.

SO WE'RE HAPPY TO WAIT FOR YOU.

WE MADE A BUCKET LIST.

BUILD THE HOUSE THAT WE WANTED.

NOW WE'RE BUILDING THIS POOL.

THIS IS TOP OF THE BUCKET LIST.

WOW.
SOME SPACE TO WORK IN.

AHA, THE GODS ARE SMILING
ON ME TODAY, HENRY!

THIS IS LIKE NATURAL FLORIDA
RIGHT HERE.

THAT IS A PRESERVE.
BEAUTIFUL.

HENRY MADE IT REALLY CLEAR
THAT THEY MOVED OUT HERE

TO BE AROUND WILDLIFE.

THEY LOVE THE NATURE PRESERVE.

SO I WANT THE DESIGN TO REFLECT

AND ENCOMPASS EVERYTHING
THAT THEY LIVE OUT HERE FOR.

DID YOU PURPOSELY KILL OFF
ALL THE GRASS IN THIS AREA?

YOU GOT THAT RIGHT.

WHEN WE BUILD THIS HOME,

IT WAS SUPPOSED
TO BE A POOL THERE.

WE DECIDED NOT TO GO
WITH THE POOL

'CAUSE IT WAS JUST
A HOLE IN THE GROUND.

IT COST ME $5,000 TO GET
OUT OF THAT CONTRACT.

WHEN WE WERE BUILDING THIS HOME,
THE DESIGN DID HAVE A POOL,

BUT IT WAS JUST A LITTLE HOLE
IN THE GROUND.

SO WE TOLD THE BUILDER,
"SCRATCH THE POOL."

AND HE SAID, WHETHER YOU BUILD
THE POOL OR NOT,

THEY WERE GONNA GET
THAT $5,000 - -

THEIR DEPOSIT FEES,
WHATEVER THEY'RE CALLING.

IT'S LIKE ME TAKING MONEY
OUT THERE AND BURNING IT.

THAT'S HOW I FELT ABOUT IT.

THERE'S ALL KINDS
OF FEATURES WE CAN DO.

MAYBE LIKE
A SWIM-UP BAR.

SWIM-UP BAR SUCKS.

WE MAY WANT A TV OUT HERE.

WE MAY WANT OUTDOOR LIVING,

WHERE YOU CAN BRING FRIENDS OUT.

WE WANT TO BARBECUE.

HENRY AND VALERIE
HAVE HAD 10 YEARS

LIVING IN THIS HOME,
LOOKING OUT BACK,

THINKING ABOUT EVERYTHING
THAT THEY WANT.

I WANT A TRUE WATERFALL.

I DON'T WANT NO
COOKIE-CUTTER WATERFALL.

I NEED THAT WOW FACTOR, MAN.

THE WOW FACTOR IS SOMETHING
THAT I CAN GO OUT

ANY DOOR OF MY HOUSE,
AND I'M GONNA SAY, "WOW."

THIS IS WHAT I'M TELLING YOU,
LUCAS, THAT I WANT.

IF YOU CAN'T DELIVER,
LET'S MOVE ON.

PARTING OUR WAYS,
NO HARD FEELINGS.

I'M DEFINITELY INSPIRED
BY MY CLIENTS.

I JUST NEED TO LEARN A LITTLE
BIT MORE ABOUT YOU GUYS.

YOU CAN SEE THAT WE ARE
OF A CERTAIN AGE.

WE WANTED A CHANGE
IN THE LIFESTYLE.

MY GOAL IN LIFE IS TO LIVE
LONGER AND BE HEALTHY.

HENRY JUST
BECAME A VEGETARIAN.

WE'RE CHANGING OUR LIFESTYLE

TO ENJOY OUR OTHER LIFE
THAT WE'RE GONNA - -

A NEW CHAPTER
IN OUR LIVES.

THAT'S WHAT
WE'RE LOOKING FOR.

WE WANT SOMETHING THAT
WE CAN BE ABLE TO SWIM.

WE WANT SOMETHING
THAT WE CAN EXERCISE IN,

SOMETHING THERAPEUTIC.

WE COULD DO
A REALLY BIG SPA

THAT YOU COULD
ACTUALLY SWIM IN

AND HAVE THE SWIM JET
IN THE SPA,

THEN HAVE ANOTHER POOL AREA

WITH SEATING ALL AROUND IT

SO YOU CAN LOUNGE IN
THE POOL AND COOL DOWN.

CAN YOU ACTUALLY DO THIS,

OR IS THIS JUST SELL POINT NOW?

YOU KNOW, I REALLY HAVE A GOOD
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT YOU WANT.

MAYBE LET'S JUST GO
SIT DOWN AT THE TABLE.

I'LL SHOW YOU SOME PICTURES,

AND LET ME GET SOME VISUALS
OF WHAT KIND OF THINGS YOU LIKE.

OKAY.
THEY'VE BEEN BURNED A FEW TIMES,

SO NOW, YOU KNOW,
HENRY'S VERY PESSIMISTIC

AND UNTRUSTING OF ANYBODY
TO COME BUILD HIS PARADISE,

SO I'M GETTING
INSIDE THEIR HEAD,

FIGURING OUT,
HOW CAN I ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS,

PUT MY SPIN ON IT,
AND TOGETHER MAKING SOMETHING

MORE INCREDIBLE THAN I COULD
MAKE BY MYSELF?

I'M THINKING, YOU KNOW,
THIS SWIM SPA AREA,

AND YOU HAVE THERAPY JETS
COMING OUT OF THE WALLS,

WHERE YOU COULD FIT
LIKE 12 PEOPLE OR MORE.

IT'S REALLY A GIANT HOT TUB,
ALSO A SWIM JET,

SO YOU CAN EXERCISE BY
SWIMMING AGAINST THE CURRENT.

SO THE WATER'S SPILLING WITH
A ROCK BRIDGE GOING OVER IT.

OVER HERE, YOU GOT
THIS COOL GROTTO.

I MEAN, WHAT ELSE CAN
WE PUT IN HERE, RIGHT?

KEEP BRINGING IT, MAN.

POSSIBLY LIKE AN OUTDOOR TV
ON THIS WALL,

MAYBE A BIG KIND OF LANDSCAPE
GARDEN AREA BACK HERE.

THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR.

AT THIS MOMENT, YOU SEEM LIKE

THE GUY TO DO THIS JOB.

YOU GOT SOME GOOD IDEAS
RIGHT THERE.

BUILD OUR DREAM.

WELL, AWESOME, GUYS.
THANK YOU.

I WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN.

NOW IS THE TIME
FOR US TO DO THIS.

HE WAS SO LAID BACK.

WE FELT VERY COMFORTABLE
WORKING WITH HIM.

HE'S NOT A SALESPERSON.

HE DIDN'T TRY
TO SELL US A THING.

AND THAT IMPRESSED US.

THIS IS GREAT, MAN.

I DON'T KNOW YOU THAT WELL,
BUT COME ON, GIVE ME A HUG.

I WON'T LET YOU GUYS DOWN.
IT'S GONNA BE A FUN PROJECT.

THAT'S GOOD.

THE TAYLORS ARE
GIVING ME EIGHT WEEKS

AND $145,000 TO BUILD
THEIR DREAM BACKYARD.

NOW THAT WE HAVE THE DESIGN SET
FOR THE TAYLORS,

I'M BRINGING OUT
MY WHOLE CREW SO THEY CAN SEE

KIND OF THE LAY OF THE LAND
AND LET THEM KNOW

WHAT TO EXPECT BEFORE WE GET
ANKLES DEEP INTO THIS.

LOOK AT THIS PROPERTY.

THEY GOT A NATURE PRESERVE
BEHIND THEM.

FINALLY GOT SOME SPACE.

YEAH, LOOK AT THAT.
WHOO, WHOO.

NOT GONNA BE RUNNING
OVER NEIGHBORS' BUSHES

TRYING TO GET
THE ROCKS IN.

OR CRASHING INTO
STUFF, CRASH.

YOU GOT PLENTY OF SPACE
TO DIG ALL THE DIGGING.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA
HIT ANYTHING.

I'M GONNA BURY YOU IN IT.

THE TEAM CALLS ME
"OLD MAN."

CALL ME OLD MAN, ALL ME JOHNNY,
CALL ME WHATEVER,

JUST SAY IT LOUD ENOUGH
SO I CAN HEAR YOU.

HENRY
AND VALERIE TAYLOR - -

THEY'RE, YOU KNOW, ABOUT
TO REACH RETIREMENT AGE,

SO THIS IS BASICALLY
THEIR LAGOON OF DREAMS.

JUST TELL THEM THAT WOMAN'S
GONNA BE THEIR FAIRY GODMOTHER,

AND I'M GONNA MAKE
THEIR DREAMS COME TRUE.

I'M LUCAS' MOM,
AND I'M THE LEAD STONE MASON.

I'M 62 YEARS OLD, AND I STILL
FEEL REALLY STRONG.

THEY DON'T WANT
A COOKIE-CUTTER POOL,

THEY DON'T WANT
A HOLE IN THE GROUND.

THESE ARE ALL WORDS
THEY'VE USED.

WE DON'T DO COOKIE-CUTTER,

BUT WE DO DO TRANQUILITY,
SO LET'S DO THIS.

MY NAME IS SUNSHINE
AT LUCAS LAGOONS.

I'M THE MUD MAN.

EVERYTHING THAT ADHERES

ALL THOSE ROCKS THAT WE LAY
TOGETHER IS MY JOB.

I WANT TO START
DIGGING THIS THING.

YOU READY TO GO?
I'M READY TO GO.

ALL RIGHT, TEAM, LET'S GO
GET OUR TOOLS AND GET TO WORK.

COOL, THAT'S THAT POINT.

ALL RIGHT, CRASH,
YOU READY TO DIG?

I GUESS IT'S MY TIME.

MY NICKNAME'S "CRASH."

I MEAN, YES, I HAVE CRASHED
A LOT OF THINGS IN MY LIFE.

IT'S GENERALLY AFTER WORK.

BUT DURING WORK,
I'M FOCUSED AND ON MY GAME.

ONE OF THE HARDEST THINGS
ABOUT DIGGING IS WATER.

THAT'S OUR ENEMY.

WHOA, WHOA. ALL RIGHT, GO AHEAD
AND DUMP THAT, THEN COME OUT.

LOOK HOW WET THAT IS.

IT'S GONNA START
CAVING IN ON US.

IF YOU HIT WATER, YOU GOT TO DIG
MUCH DEEPER THAN YOU NEED TO GO

SO THAT YOU CAN FILL IT IN
WITH EITHER CRUSHED STONE

OR CRUSHED SHALE.

GET A SUBMERSIBLE PUMP IN THERE,

CONSTANTLY PULLING
THE WATER OUT OF THE HOLE,

BECAUSE AS WATER STARTS RISING,
IT STARTS CAVING IN THE WALLS,

AND NOW YOU'VE TOTALLY LOST
YOUR EARTH FORM.

WE GOT, BASICALLY, TWO POOLS
UNIFIED BY A STREAM.

THIS THERAPY POOL'S REALLY

THE BIGGEST SPA
WE'VE EVER BUILT.

THIS IS, LIKE,
AT LEAST AS BIG AS THE POOL.

IT'S 300 SQUARE FOOT.

I CAN'T EVEN REALLY CLASSIFY IT
AS A SPA,

SO WE CALL IT A THERAPY POOL.

THEN, ONCE YOU HAVE YOU'RE
PERIMETER SET AND THE HOLE DUG,

YOU LAY ALL YOUR STEEL IN THERE.

THIS POOL HAS MOSTLY NUMBER 5
REBAR WITH SOME NUMBER 3

AND SOME NUMBER 4 TO MAKE SURE

THAT IT'S GONNA LAST
LITERALLY FOREVER.

HEY, LUCAS!
WHAT'S UP, MAN?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING
TO MY BACKYARD?

HENRY'S JUST NOT GETTING AS
PUMPED UP AS I THOUGHT HE WOULD.

WHAT I SEE...
MAN!

WE'RE HERE ON
THE TAYLOR JOB TODAY.

WE HAVE A HUGE CHALLENGE
WITH THIS BUILD.

HENRY AND VALERIE
HAVE BEEN BURNED BEFORE.

THEY'RE TRUSTING ME

TO BASICALLY BUILD TWO POOLS

AND ADD ALL THESE
OTHER FEATURES TO IT.

AND NOW'S THE PERFECT TIME TO
GET HENRY AND VALERIE OUT HERE

TO MAKE SURE THERE'S NO
LAST-MINUTE CHANGES,

BECAUSE ONCE THAT
SHOTCRETE GOES IN,

YOU'RE NOT GONNA CHANGE
ANYTHING ON THAT SHAPE

WITHOUT SOME SERIOUS
DEMOLITION

AND A LOT OF ADDED EXPENSE.

MORNING, VALERIE.

HEY, LUCAS.
HOW ARE YOU?

GOOD MORNING. MORNING.
MORNING, MAN.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING
TO MY BACKYARD, MAN?

TEARING IT UP, MAN.
THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED, RIGHT?

IT'S GOT TO GET A LITTLE WORSE
BEFORE IT GETS BETTER.

LOOK AT IT.

CAN YOU START
TO PICTURE IT YET?

I HAVE TO STEP BACK
AND TAKE A BREATH.

I MEAN, IT'S LIKE,
MY GOODNESS - - FANTASTIC.

AFTER 10 YEARS, HERE IT IS!

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
BECAUSE THIS IS IT.

TOMORROW'S CONCRETE,

SO ONCE WE GET THAT
SHOTCRETE IN THERE,

WE'RE NOT CHANGING MUCH.

YOU'RE COMING CLOSE TO
MY DREAM AND MY WOW FACTOR,

BUT YOU'RE NOT
THERE YET, BUDDY.

WELL, EVERY DAY
WE'RE GETTING CLOSER.

THAT'S RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT, GUYS.

ENJOY THE A.C.
I'M GONNA GET BACK TO WORK.

OKAY, ALL RIGHT.
GET BACK TO WORK.

SO, TODAY, WE HAVE TO SHOOT

THE CONCRETE
TO DO THE POOL SHELL.

IT'S A VERY STRONG MATERIAL,

WHICH ALLOWS US TO PRETTY MUCH

PUT WHATEVER ROCKS ON TOP OF IT
THAT WE WANT TO.

YOU KNOW, THESE BIG GROTTOS
AND WATERFALLS ARE VERY HEAVY,

SO WE NEED A STRONG MATERIAL.

THIS HAS CHANGED A LOT.

THIS IS A LOT BIGGER

THAN WE HAD STAKED OUT
THE OTHER DAY.

RIGHT.
BUT THAT'S LUCAS.

LOOKS LIKE IT'S GONNA BE
A LOT BIGGER POOL AND SPA

THAN LUCAS HAD ORIGINALLY
STAKED OUT,

BUT THAT'S PAR FOR THE COURSE.

THAT'S HOW MY SON IS - -
ALWAYS BIGGER, BETTER.

I'LL GET OUT OF THE WAY, AND YOU
JUST KEEP AN EYE ON THINGS.

YOU GOT IT.
DONE.

ALL RIGHT.

AFTER A COUPLE DAYS

OF THAT POOL SHELL CURING,

THEN THEY GOT TO STRIP THE FORMS
OFF, AND WE SEAL IT UP,

AND THEN IT'S READY
FOR US TO DO OUR ROCK MAGIC.

SO, LUCAS HAD ME OUT HERE
TO THE TAYLOR RESIDENCE

TO PUT A NICE, SICK SOUND SYSTEM
IN THEIR NEW BACKYARD.

THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TO SIT

WHILE THEY'RE DOING
THEIR THERAPY

AND WHILE THEY'RE EXERCISING
AND WATCH A BIG-SCREEN TV.

HEY, FRANKIE D,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING, BRO?

WHAT'S UP, MAN?
HOW ARE YOU?

SAME OLD, SAME OLD.

SO, MEASURING OUT FOR THIS
50-INCH TV OVER HERE.

YEAH, WELL,
I'M KIND OF THINKING

THAT 50 ISN'T
GONNA BE ENOUGH.

YOU KNOW, WE NEED A LITTLE BIT
OF A WOW FACTOR OVER HERE.

WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?

I'M JUST THINKING 70,
80 MAYBE.

IF WE PUT A REALLY BIG TV SO
THAT THEY COULD BE HANGING OUT

IN THEIR THERAPY POOL

AND BE WATCHING A FOOTBALL GAME
OR SOMETHING,

I WOULD SAY "WOW"
TO THAT MYSELF.

ALL RIGHT,
I'M SAYING 80 OR NOTHING.

THE BIG BOY.
ALL RIGHT.

LET'S DO IT, MAN.
LET'S DO THIS.

LUCAS GIVES EVERYBODY
OUR ORDERS, AND I'M IN CHARGE

OF THE THERAPY POOL, THE WHOLE
POOL, I GOT THE THERAPY JET.

HEY, WHAT'S UP, GUYS?

I SEE YOU GUYS GOT
THE PLUMBING ALMOST DONE.

I MEAN, YOU GOT A LOT
OF PIPE HERE.

YEAH, IT ENDED UP BEING
1,600 FEET OF PIPE TOTAL.

ADAM IS ONE OF OUR
SUBCONTRACTORS.

HE'S ONE OF OUR
PLUMBING SPECIALISTS.

PLUMBING'S NOT REALLY
AN EASY JOB

BECAUSE YOU ALWAYS
CHANGE THINGS AROUND.

TELL ME WHAT
YOU GOT GOING ON.

WE'VE GOT THE MAIN
CIRCULATION PUMP - -

ALL THAT PLUMBING IS INSTALLED.

WE'VE GOT THE AUXILIARY PUMP,
WHICH IS FOR THE WATERFALLS.

ALL ITS PLUMBING IS INSTALLED.

AND NOW WE JUST HAVE
THE THIRD AND FINAL PUMP,

WHICH IS FOR THE SWIMJET.

LET'S GET THIS THING IN THERE.

I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW
HOW A SWIMJET WORKED.

IT'S HOOKED UP WITH A SEPARATE
FOUR-HORSEPOWER PUMP.

THERE'S SUCTION LINES THAT
COME FROM THE THERAPY POOL

AND DRAWS THE WATER TO THE PUMP
AND THEN PUMPS IT BACK

TO MAKE IT LIKE YOU'RE
SWIMMING AGAINST A RIVER.

GOT 'ER.
ALL RIGHT.

GOOD JOB, GUYS.
MAN, GOOD JOB.

THAT MEANS ALL THE PLUMBING
IS DONE FOR THE POOL,

SO NOW WE CAN
ALL DO THE BACK FILL.

BACK FILL IS BY HAND, THOUGH.

DON'T DRIVE OVER IT.

I'M NOT GONNA DRIVE OVER IT.

WE ALL ENABLE EACH OTHER TO BE

THE **** THAT
WE WERE MEANT TO BE.

I'M GONNA GIVE OLD MAN A LITTLE
BIT MORE THAN HE BARGAINED FOR.

SO, JOHN, I WAS - -
AAH! ****!

TODAY, I'M AT THE TAYLOR'S HOME
IN BRADENTON.

THE ROCKS ARE ARRIVING.

IT'S EXCITING.

I GET TO SEE WHAT LUCAS
PICKED OUT IN TENNESSEE.

WE GOT TWO TRACTOR-TRAILER
LOADS OF STONE,

WHICH IS EQUIVALENT
TO ABOUT 48 TON.

HEY, CHECK IT OUT, GUYS.
WE GOT ALL THE ROCKS UNLOADED.

LET'S GET
INTO OUR POSITIONS.

I WANT WOMAN TO HELP
WITH THE GROTTO.

YOU CAN BE DOWN IN THERE.

I'LL SELECT THE ROCK,
STRAP THEM.

CRASH, GET IN THE MACHINES,
SWING THEM INTO WOMAN.

OLD MAN, START WORKING
ON THE STREAM

AND THEN THE ROCK BRIDGE.

SUNSHINE, OF COURSE,
YOU'LL BE THE MUD MAN.

JUST MIX IT
AS FAST AS YOU CAN.

SIR MIX-A-LOT.

MUD IS MIX OF PORTLAND,
WATER, AND SAND.

IT ADHERES EVERYTHING
AND DRIES TO A SOLID

SO THAT IT'S LIKE
ONE SOLID MASS.

IT'S PRETTY LONG.

I'M PROBABLY GONNA HAVE
TO MOVE THAT RETURN.

SO IT'S GONNA BE OUT LIKE THIS.

MAYBE WE COULD JUST
REPLUMB THAT.

WE'RE TRYING TO GET
THIS ROCK INTO PLACE

BEFORE THE MUD SETS UP.

THE MUD'S DRYING UP QUICK.

ONLY HAVE FIVE MINUTES.

PLUMBING'S SOMETHING
YOU DON'T SEE,

BUT IT'S CRITICAL TO MAKING SURE

EVERYTHING IS A EFFICIENT,
FLOWS PROPERLY.

I MEAN, IT'S BASICALLY
THE VEINS OF THE PROJECT.

MAYBE A SHORT PIECE
OF PIPE FOR NOW.

OKAY.

YOU KNOW, A LOT OF TIMES,
THE PLUMBING GOES IN

BEFORE THE ROCK WORK,
AND IT'S HARD TO ANTICIPATE

EXACTLY WHERE YOU'RE GONNA
WANT THE MAIN FEED TO END UP.

SO, IN THIS CASE, YOU KNOW,

WE HAD TO GO BACKWARDS
A LITTLE BIT, STOP DOWN,

MOVE THE PLUMBING BEFORE WE
COULD FINISH THE ROCK WORK,

BUT THIS KIND OF THING HAPPENS
TIME TO TIME.

WE JUST KIND OF FIX IT,
GO WITH THE FLOW.

NOW WE'RE BACK TO ROCK WORK,
AND WE CAN KEEP MOVING FORWARD.

MY GOD.

THAT'S JUST GORGEOUS.

HEY, OLD MAN.

WHAT DO YOU NEED OVER HERE?

LUCAS PUT ME IN CHARGE
OF BUILDING THE STREAM,

AND I'M GONNA BE CONNECTING
THE TWO POOLS WITH THE STREAM

AND A BRIDGE GOING OVER, SO I'M
EXCITED ABOUT BUILDING THIS.

I'M THINKING IT
TAKES ON TOO MUCH

OF A TROUGHY EFFECT,
AND LOOKS MORE LIKE SOMETHING

LIKE COWS DRINK OUT OF,
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

HOW CAN I MAKE
THIS LOOK NATURAL?

SO BRING ME SOME THIN ROCKS

BUT SOME BIG SIZE
SO IT LOOKS A BOULDER,

BUT THE BOULDER
IS ACTUALLY LAID BACK HERE.

YOU GOT IT.

THANK YOU.

THERE'S A SNAKE HERE.

DO YOU WANT TO PICK UP THAT
ROCK AND I'LL TRY TO JUST...

WHICH ONE?

THIS ONE.
JUST PICK UP THIS.

TIP IT UP?
TIP IT THIS WAY.

OKAY, WHATEVER.
YOU WANT TO TIP THAT WAY?

IT'S A BLACK RACER.

IT WAS JUST A BLACK RACER.

THEY'RE MORE OR LESS HARMLESS.

WE FIND THEM ALL THE TIME
IN THE ROCKS.

OLD MAN - -
HE IS AFRAID OF SNAKES.

HE CAN'T STAND SNAKES.

HE'LL JUMP OUT OF HIS SKIN.

I'M GONNA GIVE OLD MAN

A LITTLE BIT MORE
THAN HE BARGAINED FOR.

SO, JOHN, I WAS, -

AAH!

I AM SO AFRAID OF SNAKES.

I HATE THEM.

WHAT'S THE MATTER, JOHN.

HE LIKES THE STREAM IDEA.

HE AIN'T GOING IN MY STREAM.

IT'S NOT GOOD FOR ME.
I'M AN OLD MAN.

I COULD
HAVE A HEART ATTACK,

OR IT COULD GIVE ME
A HEART ATTACK.

MORNING, GUYS.

I KNOW THAT LUCAS

IS DEADLY AFRAID OF SNAKES,

SO THERE'S MY NEXT TARGET.

WHY DON'T YOU GUYS
COME HERE

AND GIVE ME AN UPDATE
ON WHERE WE'RE AT.

WELL, I WAS JUST GONNA
BUILD UP THAT BACK WALL THERE

SO WE CAN REST
THE BIG ONE ON TOP,

'CAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY BIG
ONES THAT WERE SHORT ENOUGH.

SO I GOT TO KIND OF
DO A WALL THING.

I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT THE ****?
EWW!

I DON'T CARE IF
THEY'RE POISONOUS OR NOT.

SNAKES JUST CREEP ME OUT.

YOU GUYS ARE A BUNCH OF ****!

THAT'S HOW WE ROLL.

NOW, LET THAT POOR THING GO.

YOU KNOW,
FOR ME, INSPIRATION

CAN COME FROM ANYWHERE,
SO I'M GONNA TAKE WOMAN

AND WALK AROUND IN THE NATURE
PRESERVE RIGHT IN THEIR BACKYARD

AND JUST SEE WHAT
WE COME UP WITH.

IT'S REALLY BEAUTIFUL
BACK HERE.

LOOK WE CAN SEE
THE HOUSE FROM HERE.

SO YOU CAN KIND OF LIKE LOOK
THROUGH ALL THIS FOLIAGE

AND KIND OF SUPERIMPOSE IT
INTO THEIR BACKYARD.

I HAD MY OWN
LANDSCAPE DESIGN BUSINESS,

AND THAT'S ACTUALLY HOW
LUCAS GOT HIS START, TOO.

HE STARTED WORKING FOR ME
WHEN HE WAS 14.

AND NOW I WORK FOR LUCAS.

I LIKE IT A LOT BETTER.

I MEAN, WE'RE NOT
GONNA USE PALMETTOS,

BUT IF WE COULD
FIND SOME PALMS

THAT KIND OF LOOK
SIMILAR TO THEM.

HERE'S A NICE, LITTLE
OAK TREE HERE.

TOO BAD WE COULDN'T STICK
AN OAK TREE IN THERE.

I KNOW. THE OAK TREES
JUST GET TOO AGGRESSIVE.

THEIR ROOTS WOULD PROBABLY
HURT THE PLUMBING,

AND THEN THEY'D GET TOO BIG
AND DROP A LOT OF LEAVES.

BUT MAYBE WE COULD FIND
SOMETHING THAT...

SOMETHING SIMILAR.
SOMETHING SIMILAR.

SOMETHING LIKE A LIGUSTRUM.

ALL RIGHT, WE'LL PUT
THAT ON OUR LIST.

ALL RIGHT, THERE YOU GO.
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE.

GOT REALLY INSPIRED BY THE HIKE
THROUGH THE PRESERVE.

I GOT A LOT OF
REALLY GOOD IDEAS.

WHY YOU GOT TO DUMP
MY BUCKET OF WATER OUT?!

I HAVE A SPECIAL BUCKET
FOR MY SHOVEL, OF WATER.

WOMAN KNOCKS MY BUCKET OVER
TO TAKE FOR HERSELF.

YOU WANT SOME MORE WATER?

COME ON, NOW!

SO, I HAD RETALIATE.

I HAD TO THROW SOME MUD AT HER.

WELL, THEN THAT REALLY
PISSED ME OFF.

ALL RIGHT,
WOMAN, SETTLE DOWN.

ME SETTLE DOWN?
ME SETTLE DOWN?

MAN.

LUCAS LAGOONS

IS A BIG, DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY.

WE ALL ENABLE EACH OTHER TO BE

THE **** THAT WE WERE
MEANT TO BE.

THAT'S REALLY - -

THAT'S REALLY
HOW IT RUNS SOMETIMES.

AT THE END OF THE DAY,
YOU KNOW,

IT'S ALL FORGOTTEN,
AND WE LOVE EACH OTHER,

AND WE'RE READY
FOR THE NEXT ROUND.

ALL RIGHT, PLAY NICE.

ARE YOU'RE GONNA HELP
EACH OTHER CLEAN OFF?

ARE YOU DONE MESSING AROUND?
WE GOT WORK TO DO, JEEZ.

THERE YOU GO, BIG FELLA.

JUST LIKE YOU ARE.
GO DOWN.

YEAH, I LIKE HOW THIS
IS COMING TOGETHER, YOU KNOW.

WE'LL DEFINITELY
HAVE THE CLEARANCE.

THIS IS LIKE SEVEN FOOT.
I'M THE ROCK CONQUEROR.

HEY, LUCAS!
WHAT'S UP, MAN?

I THINK WE'RE CREATING
YOUR WOW FACTOR, I HOPE.

SO, YOU KNOW, WE BASICALLY

JUST GOT TO LEVEL OFF
THE REST OF IT

AND THEN PUT THAT HUGE
GROTTO ROCK ON,

AND THAT'S YOUR
BIG WATERFALL.

OKAY.

SO...

HENRY'S JUST NOT GETTING AS
PUMPED UP AS I THOUGHT HE WOULD.

I MEAN, I KNOW
HE'S A LITTLE BIT PESSIMISTIC,

BUT I HOPE GETS EXCITED
AT SOME POINT.

THEN OVER HERE, OLD MAN'S
BEEN WORKING ON THE STREAM.

BY THE END OF THE DAY TOMORROW,
OLD MAN WILL HAVE THAT SET

TO WHERE WE CAN DO
THE BRIDGE OVER IT.

IT'S COMING
TOGETHER, UM...

I'M JUST LOOKING FOR A COUPLE
LITTLE ACCOLADES MAYBE.

WHAT I SEE - - MY SWIMJET.

YEAH.
YOU SEE THAT GOING IN?

YEAH, I SEE THE BIG PIPE.
MAN!

WE GOT THIS PLUMBED IN,
TOO, NOW,

SO THAT'S GONNA BE A LOT OF
WATER SHOOTING OUT OF THAT PIPE.

MAN. THIS IS GREAT!
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.

THIS IS WHAT I WANTED.

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE'S THAT
EXCITED ABOUT PLUMBING, I MEAN.

THAT'S CRAZY.

I BUILD THIS HUGE-ASS
24-TON GROTTO

AND YOU'RE GETTING MORE
EXCITED ABOUT THIS SWIMJET.

I'M ALL EXCITED ABOUT THIS.
I'M READY TO SWIM.

MAN!
THIS IS SOMETHING.

THIS IS A THEME
OF MY POOL RIGHT HERE.

MY THERAPY POOL.

HE DIDN'T UNDERSTAND
THAT VERY MUCH.

HEY, CRASH, OLD MAN.

HENRY LOVES YOUR SWIMJET.

ALL RIGHT!
THAT'S IT.

I'LL GO HOME, TAKE A NAP.

GLAD YOU LIKE IT, HENRY.

I LOVE IT, MAN.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

THANK YOU.

HENRY AND VALERIE

ARE REALLY TAKING
A HUGE LEAP OF FAITH IN ME.

THEY'VE BEEN RIPPED OFF
BY PREVIOUS CONTRACTORS,

SO HENRY DOESN'T THINK
ANYBODY CAN BUILD

THE BACKYARD DREAM
HE'S ALWAYS BEEN WANTING.

BUT IT'S OUR JOB
TO CHANGE HIS MIND

AND SHOW HIM THAT WE CAN
REALLY ROCK HIS WORLD.

SO, I'M GOING TO VISIT MY FRIEND
ROBERT'S SHOP TODAY

TO CREATE AN EXTRA SPECIAL
SURPRISE FOR THEM.

IT'S JUST GONNA TAKE THAT
PROJECT TO THE NEXT LEVEL,

GIVING HENRY HIS WOW FACTOR.

HEY, WHAT'S UP, ROBERT?

I GOT YOU SOME COOL
MINNESOTA GLACIAL BOULDERS.

MY NAME IS ROBERT.

BASICALLY, WE DO STONE CUTTING,
PROCESSING HERE.

WE'RE BUILDING THIS AWESOME
LAGOON PARADISE

FOR THE TAYLORS.

I WANT TO DO
A SURPRISE FOR THEM.

I WANT TO MAKE A LITTLE
TRANQUIL SEATING AREA

JUST FOR THE TWO OF THEM.

I HAVE QUITE A COLLECTION
OF ROCK AT MY HOUSE,

AND I KNEW ROBERT
WOULD BE THE PERFECT GUY

TO HELP ME SELECT
THE RIGHT ROCK.

I'M THINKING ABOUT CARVING
THESE INTO ONE TABLE

AND THEN POLISH THE TOP
AND LEAVE ALL THE EDGES LIE.

WHEN I FIRST LOOK AT THE ROCK,

I DID HAVE SCARY THOUGHTS.

THE MATERIAL LOOKS HARDER
THAN I THOUGHT.

MY SAWS,
THEY HAVE SEGMENTS,

AND THEY MIGHT HAVE
A PROBLEM WITH THAT ROCK.

BECAUSE WE DID BREAK THOSE
SEGMENTS BEFORE ON THAT SAW.

MIGHT BE HARD TO CUT THEM.

THIS HAS TO WORK.
THERE IS NO PLAN B.

DOES THIS MEAN WE GET
TO CUT IT YET?

CAN WE TRY?
CAN WE TRY?

YEAH.
LET'S DO IT.

THE BIG BLADE WE'RE USING,
IT'S 10 FEET LONG.

SEE THE MAGIC IS THE SEGMENT.
THAT'S THE MAGIC.

YEAH.

I SEE YOU'RE MISSING
A COUPLE TEETH OFF OF IT.

WELL, YEAH.

IT'S VERY TYPICAL.

WITH THIS BOULDER, IT COULD BE
A LOT MORE THAN THAT.

WINDING UP.

SO, I'M ABOUT TO FIND OUT

WHETHER MY IDEA'S
GONNA WORK OR FAIL,

AND I CAN'T AFFORD
A FAILURE RIGHT NOW.

I'M HERE AT MY FRIEND
ROBERT'S SHOP TODAY

TO MAKE A ROCK TABLE
FOR THE TAYLORS,

BUT ROBERT SEEMED KIND OF, LIKE,

THINKING MAYBE IT'LL JUST SNAP
ALL THE TEETH OFF HIS SAW.

SO, I'M ABOUT TO FIND OUT
WHETHER MY IDEA'S

GONNA WORK OR FAIL,
AND I CAN'T AFFORD

A FAILURE RIGHT NOW,
SO I'M REALLY NERVOUS.

SO, IT SEEMS TO BE
CUTTING THROUGH.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

IT DOES CUT REALLY WELL.

I WAS SURPRISED, ACTUALLY,
I WANT TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S A GO.

WHAT'S SO COOL ABOUT CUTTING
THESE ROCKS IN HALF

IS YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S
GONNA LOOK LIKE ON THE INSIDE.

I MEAN, BEAUTY IS REALLY,
TRULY ROCK DEEP.

IS THAT MY ROCK?

THAT'S IT.

I HARDLY RECOGNIZE IT.

YEAH, COUPLE MORE SECONDS.

WOW. LOOK AT ALL
THE CHARACTER IN IT.

IT'S ALL KIND OF SPARKLY AND GOT
ALL THESE COOL VEINS OF QUARTZ.

I THOUGHT IT WAS
A COOL BOULDER,

BUT I HAD NO IDEA IT WAS
GONNA BE THIS UNIQUE.

YOU NEVER KNOW.

ALL RIGHT, MAN.
SEE YA, BUDDY.

I LOVE THE WAY
THIS TABLE'S COMING OUT.

I CAN'T WAIT TO INSTALL IT
AT THE TAYLORS',

BUT I GOT TO GET BACK
AND KEEP THE BUILD GOING.

ALL RIGHT, CRASH, I WANTED TO
GET YOU TO HELP ME STRAP THIS.

WE'RE GETTING READY
TO PUT THE LID ON THE GROTTO.

THIS IS LIKE THE CROWNING JEWEL
OF OUR WATERFALL.

THIS THING IS BIG.

THIS ROCK WEIGHS
ABOUT 5,000 POUNDS,

AND OUR STRAPS CAN HANDLE
6,000 POUNDS APIECE.

ONE GROTTO COMING UP.

THIS IS THE MOST
EXCITING PART.

JUST STAY OUT FROM UNDER IT.

LITTLE MORE.

ALL RIGHT, WE GOT TO GET
MUD UNDER IT

AND COME IN A LITTLE BIT MORE.

HEY, DO YOU WANT
TO REPOSITION YOURSELF?

THIS MACHINE IS LIKE
AN EXTENSION OF MY ARM.

I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING WITH IT.

'CAUSE YOUR SINKING
RIGHT THERE.

WE'RE SINKING
A LITTLE BIT.

NOTHING UNCOMMON.

I MEAN, SOME OF THESE ROCKS
ARE PRETTY HEAVY.

LET ME GET UP THERE AND JUST
GET ON THE HIGH SIDE

'CAUSE YOU'RE SINKING.

YOU GOT TO GET
A LITTLE CLOSER ANYWAY.

IF SOMETHING GOES BAD, I KNOW
HOW TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

SO, WE'RE SETTING
IN PLACE THIS ROCK,

AND MY SON DECIDES
TO JUMP ON TOP OF IT.

IT'S GONNA SPIN WHILE IT
COMES UP A LITTLE BIT.

THAT'S OKAY, THOUGH.
PICK IT UP.

I'M THINKING, "MY GOODNESS.
WHAT IS HE DOING?"

NORMALLY,
LUCAS DOESN'T TRY TO GET UP

ON THE LID WHILE
WE'RE TRYING TO PLACE IT.

I WASN'T TOO SURE
IT WOULD BE SAFE.

OKAY, I'M TRUSTING YOU
NOT TO DROP ME.

PICK UP A LITTLE MORE.

I'M GONNA HOLD IT
SO IT DOESN'T SWING.

LUCAS IS STANDING
ON TOP OF THE ROCK

TRYING TO MANEUVER IT

JUST WITH HIS BODY WEIGHT
TO SWING IT INTO PLACE.

SUNSHINE, CAN YOU WORK
ON GETTING MUD

PUT AROUND
THE WHOLE THING?

YOU SURE YOU'RE TRUSTING
THE RIGHT PERSON?

VERY OFTEN, WE HAVE
TO PUSH THE LIMITS

IN ORDER TO GET
THE ROCKS INTO PLACE.

IN THIS CASE, WE WERE
HAVING A HARD TIME

GETTING IT STRAPPED RIGHT
SO IT WAS BALANCED.

SO I ACTUALLY USED MY BODY
WEIGHT ON ONE SIDE OF IT

TO GET IT TO TIP IN
THE RIGHT DIRECTION,

SO THAT WHEN WE SET IT DOWN,
IT WOULD FALL RIGHT INTO PLACE.

THIS IS GONNA LOOK INCREDIBLE,
YOU GUYS.

I CAN SEE WHEN I JUMP OFF,

I'M GONNA LAND RIGHT IN
THE MIDDLE OF THAT DEEP END.

THIS IS PERFECT.

I JUMPED DOWN,
AND I GET ON THE DECK

SO I CAN'T GET A GOOD VIEW
OF IT FROM DOWN BELOW.

BRING HER DOWN.
OKAY.

I MEAN, IT LOOKS AWESOME.

LOOK AT THAT - - PERFECTLY LEVEL.

I KNEW IT JUST BY LOOKING AT IT.

I GOT THE ROCK TABLE
BACK FROM ROBERT.

THE ONLY THING LEFT TO DO NOW
IS A BASE FOR THIS ROCK.

I'VE HAD THIS PIECE OF OOLITE
FOR A WHILE NOW ON MY PROPERTY.

IT'S KIND OF RAW
AND NATURAL, ORGANIC.

I'M GONNA TAKE THIS BOULDER
AND KIND OF CHISEL AWAY AT IT

AND SHAPE IT SO THAT
IT'S THE RIGHT SIZE AND SHAPE

AND POWER WASH IT.

IT'S GONNA BRING OUT THAT
CORAL LOOK TO THE STONE,

WHICH IS GONNA BE
A BEAUTIFUL CONTRAST

FOR THAT DARK TABLETOP.

LOVE THIS ROCK.

THIS IS GORGEOUS.
WHERE'D IT COME FROM?

WELL, THIS ONE OF THOSE
MINNESOTA BOULDERS

I'VE HAD AROUND MY SHOP,

YOU KNOW, MY HOUSE - -
THAT COLLECTION.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

YOU COULD PROBABLY
CHARGE AS MUCH MONEY

FOR THIS TABLE AS YOU COULD
FOR A SMALL POOL.

IF I WAS CHARGING FOR IT,

THIS WOULD PROBABLY
BE WORTH ABOUT...

I DON'T KNOW.
15,000, 18,000?

NO, PROBABLY 10 GRAND.

MAN, THIS IS REALLY
COOL, LUCAS.

IS THIS FIRST PIECE OF
FURNITURE YOU'VE EVER MADE?

YEAH, OUT OF STONE.

LOOK HOW THE SEALER'S
BRINGING OUT EVEN MORE

OF THE CHARACTER
IN THIS ROCK TABLE.

GOT A LOT OF MY INSPIRATION
FROM YOU, WOMAN.

YOU KNOW THAT.

YEARS GROWING UP AND WATCHING
YOU DO YOUR MAGIC.

WHAT YOU'RE DOING
IS JUST INCREDIBLE.

IT'S SO COOL.

SOMETIMES I GET
FRUSTRATED, SO...

THIS WHY YOU DO IT.

YOU END UP CREATING
SOMETHING JUST INCREDIBLE.

SO, LUCAS PUT CRASH IN CHARGE
OF THE THERAPY POOL.

I GOT THIS THING ALL READY
FOR SETTING ROCKS.

I MEAN, BUT I'M DRAWING
A LITTLE BLANK RIGHT NOW.

LUCAS SPECIFICALLY SAID THAT
HE DID NOT WANT ANOTHER GROTTO.

I WAS TRYING TO GET SOME
INSPIRATION FROM YOU

TO FIGURE OUT WHAT
WE NEED TO BUILD HERE.

CRASH ASKED ME
FOR MY OPINIONS.

VERY RARE.

SEE WHAT WE GOT LEFT
FOR ROCK.

YOU GOT SOME SMALLER
FLAT ONES OVER HERE.

I DON'T WANT TO DO
LIKE A STAIR STEP.

THAT HAS A LOT OF CHARACTER.

NO, YOU'RE JUST
A LOT OF CHARACTER.

"YOU'RE JUST A LOT
OF CHARACTER."

CRASH IS A BIG PAIN IN THE BUTT,
BUT HE'S ALSO VERY ENDEARING.

HOW ARE YOU GUYS DOING WITH
THIS PROJECT OVER HERE?

FINE.

WE GOT SOME GOOD IDEAS.

YEAH, WELL,
I GOT A GREAT IDEA.

ALWAYS.

WHAT'S YOUR GREAT IDEA?

I SEE THAT WE ACTUALLY
HAVE QUITE A FEW

LARGE STONES LEFT,
SO IT WILL ENABLE US

TO DO SOMETHING EVEN BIGGER
TO GIVE HENRY

HIS WOW FACTOR.

I MEAN, I WANT TO MAKE ANOTHER
LITTLE GROTTO OVER HERE.

WE GOT THE LIGHT ALREADY - -

WAIT A MINUTE.
HOLD ON A SECOND.

BEFORE YOU SAID YOU
DIDN'T WANT TO DO A GROTTO.

SOMETIMES I LOOK OVER,
SEE A ROCK,

AND I KNOW WHAT ITS DESTINY
WAS SUPPOSED TO BE,

AND I'M LIKE,
"YOU KNOW WHAT?

YOU'RE GONNA BE ANOTHER GROTTO."

YOU PUT ME IN CHARGE OF
THIS PROJECT OVER HERE,

AND NOW YOU LIKE
STEPPED ON ME LIKE,

"GET OUT OF THE WAY."

DO IT MY WAY, I'LL BUILD
THIS THING IN TWO HOURS.

YOUR WAY, YOU GUYS WILL BE
FIGHTING ABOUT IT

FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS.
LET'S JUST BUILD IT.

HE'S KILLING ME.

WHEN IT SAYS "WOMAN LAGOONS"
OR "CRASH LAGOONS,"

YOU CAN TELL ME
WHAT TO DO.

IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE
USELESS OR ANYTHING.

I DIDN'T SAY
YOU WERE USELESS.

I JUST HAVE A BETTER IDEA,
AND I'M EXCITED,

SO LET'S DO IT.

SWING IT OVER.

ALL RIGHT, CRASH,
LET'S GET HER IN.

SO, WHAT THE HELL WE
PUTTING IN THE MIDDLE?

I DON'T KNOW YET.
WE'LL SEE WHAT FITS.

I THOUGHT YOU HAD
THIS FRIGGIN' GRAND PLAN.

I DO. ALL YOU NEED IS
A GOOD PLAN TO START WITH,

AND THEN IT EVOLVES
AS YOU GO... ORGANICALLY.

NOW JUST SLIDE IT IN THERE
AND KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.

WOW!

BOSSY.

WE'RE GONNA PUT ANOTHER

BIG BOULDER KIND OF RIGHT
IN HERE SO IT'LL LOOK COOL.

IT'S GONNA
CHANGE ALTOGETHER.

THOUGHT WE COULD
JUST TAKE THIS ONE.

FOR NOT SUPPOSEDLY HAVING
A GROTTO OVER HERE,

WE'RE SURE AS HELL
LOOKING LIKE A GROTTO.

IT IS A GROTTO.

'CAUSE NO ONE EVER
COMPLAINED ABOUT

A COOL,
LITTLE SNUGGLE CAVE.

MAN, THESE WERE
A LOT EASIER IN THEORY.

WHOA, WHOA. WHAT THE HECK
YOU GUYS DOING OVER HERE?

HERE YOU GO, BABY.

YEAH.

WHOA! WOW!

WE'RE IN BRADENTON
IN THE FINAL STAGES

OF THE TAYLOR BUILD.
WE FINISHED

THIS SECOND GROTTO IDEA
IN RECORD TIME.

OLD MAN'S DONE A GREAT JOB
BUILDING THAT STREAM.

NOW THAT THE BRIDGE ROCK IS SET,

WE CAN KEEP MOVING FORWARD
WITH ALL OUR OTHER PROJECTS,

INCLUDING LAYING 2,400 SQUARE
FOOT OF TRAVERTINE DECKING.

HOPEFULLY, THAT'S GONNA BE

ENOUGH SPACE
TO KEEP HENRY HAPPY.

REALLY GROWING IN THERE.

THERE YOU GO.
ROLL IT, BABY, ROLL IT.

YEAH.

WE'RE ALSO PUTTING IN
THE LANDSCAPING,

AND I LOVE THAT PART

BECAUSE IT REALLY
STARTS SOFTENING

AND MAKING EVERYTHING
FEEL A LOT MORE NATURAL.

I MEAN, THE ROCK WORK
IS BEAUTIFUL,

BUT THE PLANTS
REALLY SET IT OFF.

HENRY JUST RECENTLY ACTUALLY
BECAME A VEGETARIAN,

SO I THOUGHT IT'D BE REALLY COOL
IDEA TO GIVE HIM

A LITTLE VEGETABLE GARDEN.

HEY, WOMAN.

SO, WHAT YOU GET FOR
THE VEGETABLE GARDEN?

YOU KNOW, A NICE,
LITTLE ASSORTMENT,

GOOD STARTING GARDEN

FOR SOMEBODY WHO'S NEVER
DONE IT BEFORE.

I DECIDED TO BUILD
A SELF-CONTAINED

VEGETABLE GARDEN
THAT'S MULTI-TIERED.

YOU KNOW,
BEING AN OLDER COUPLE,

WE WANT TO MAKE IT FUN
AND EASY FOR THEM.

NOT TOO MUCH BENDING OVER,

SO IT DOESN'T
BECOME DRUDGERY.

I FOUND SOME KITS
THAT REQUIRES NO TOOLS,

THAT LUCAS AND I
CAN PUT TOGETHER.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO NAIL IT
TOGETHER OR ANYTHING?

IT SLIDES IN.

WOW, FINALLY
SOMETHING EASY.

DON'T EVEN NEED A HAMMER.

DAMN.

SO THIS SIMPLE TASK
ISN'T SO SIMPLE AFTER ALL.

I MEAN, I GUESS NOTHING IS.

MAN, THESE WERE
A LOT EASIER IN THEORY.

I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW IF I GOT
A WORK OUT MORE OR WHAT,

BUT THIS IS NOT
GOING TOGETHER EASY.

AAH!

LOOKING GOOD THERE.

WHATEVER IT IS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I'M JUST SUPERVISING.

YEAH, WELL, THEN HELP ME
WITH THIS THEN.

TAKE OUT THAT BOX
AND JUST KEEP GOING THAT WAY.

NEED A MALLET?

YEAH.

SOMETIMES, IT'S ALL HANDS
ON DECK FOR CERTAIN PROJECTS.

TODAY IS ONE OF THOSE DAYS

WHERE EVERYBODY'S DOING
THEIR OWN THING.

WE HAVE A LOT OF LITTLE PROJECTS
THAT NEED TO BE FINISHED UP.

NICE!

ONE OF THE LAST
THINGS WE GOT TO DO

IS GET THE POOL FINISH IN THERE.

THE TAYLORS HAVE A DARK BLUE
PEBBLE FINISH ON THEIR POOL.

ALL RIGHT,
LET'S FILL THIS THING.

HOPE IT DON'T LEAK.

IF IT DOES,
IT'S YOUR FAULT.

SO, WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

I MEAN, IT'S THE BIGGEST
THERAPY POOL WE'VE DONE.

NO MATTER WHAT, LUCAS ALWAYS HAS
ME BEING THE GUINEA PIG.

YEAH, YOU GOT TO TEST
THE SWIMJET.

COME ON, CRASH, I NEED
A LITTLE ENTERTAINMENT.

HERE YOU GO, BABY.

YEAH!

YEAH.

YOU MAKE
THAT LOOK GOOD.

PUSH THE BUTTON.
LET'S SEE YOU GO.

HOW'S WORKING?
THIS IS AWESOME.

I CAN SWIM FOR MILES
AND NOT GET ANYWHERE.

NOW I KNOW

WHAT A SALMON FEELS LIKE
TRYING SWIMMING UP THE RIVER.

ALL RIGHT, LOOKS
LIKE HE'S HAVING FUN.

LET'S GET SOME MORE WORK DONE.

THE THERAPY POOL
IS LOOKING AWESOME.

IT'S WORKING GOOD.

HENRY IS GONNA COME OUT
AND BE LIKE, "WHOA! WOW!"

IT'S FURNITURE DAY
AT THE TAYLORS'

AND I LOVE THIS PART
BECAUSE WE GET

ALL THIS UNIQUE FURNITURE
COMING IN THAT JUST

BLENDS IN WITH THE NATURE.

HEY, LUCAS.
HOW ARE YOU?

GOOD.
GOOD MORNING, CELESTE.

GOOD TO SEE YOU.

TODAY, WE'VE GOT A BIG TRUCKLOAD
FULL OF ALL DIFFERENT KINDS

OF ITEMS TO FURNISH
THEIR COOL PATIO.

THIS IS INCREDIBLE.

WE FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY,
RESTORATION,

AND ALSO UPCYCLING.

LOOK AT THESE.

OLD WAGON WHEELS.
THE OLD WAGON WHEELS, YEAH.

WE HAVE LIKE A HIGH-TOP TABLE
FOR THIS OR SOMETHING?

YEAH, WE HAVE THE BAR.

WHAT GOOD OUTDOOR AREA
DOESN'T HAVE A BAR?

IT'S GOT TO HAVE A BAR.

IT'S ALL MADE FROM
RECLAIMED WOOD,

AND THIS ALL, LIKE, OLD CARTS
THAT WE'VE REPURPOSED

AND UPCYCLED
INTO SOMETHING COOL AND NEW.

WOW. IT'S AMAZING
HOW IT'LL TRANSFORM

WITH SOME FURNITURE.

IT'S REALLY STARTING
TO LOOK LIKE A LIVING SPACE.

THANKS SO MUCH.
YOU'RE THE BEST.

ALL RIGHT, THANKS.
ENJOY THE REST OF YOUR DAY.

OKAY, I WILL.
I'LL KEEP WORKING.

OKAY, GET WORKING.

LUCAS ALWAYS LIKES TO HAVE SOME
SORT OF NATURAL DECOR MIXED IN

WITH FUNCTIONAL DECOR.

SO, I GOT THIS TRUCK

FULL OF STUFF THAT I BELIEVE
THE TAYLORS ARE GOING TO LOVE.

YOU GIVE IT THAT
WOW FACTOR FOR SURE,

AND THAT'S WHAT
HENRY'S LOOKING FOR.

I WANT TO SIT ON IT.
I LOOKS REALLY COMFY.

THIS IS DEAD-ON PERFECT.

I LOVE THE EARTH TONES
THAT GO WITH THE ROCK.

AND THEN, OF COURSE,
HAVING THAT ACCENT OF COLOR.

I MEAN, THESE COLORS
JUST REALLY MAKE IT POP.

IT LOOKS AWESOME.

THAT'S MY JOB.

WE'RE POWER WASHING,

PLANTING PLANTS, FIXING LEAVES,

AND JUST DOING WHATEVER
IT NEEDS TO BE DONE

TO MAKE IT PERFECT
FOR THE TAYLORS.

FRANKIE D. TELLS ME THAT

IF WE'RE GONNA TRY
TO BRING THE WOW FACTOR,

WE HAVE TO HAVE TWO SUBWOOFERS.

HE SAYS ONE FOR EACH POOL.

HENRY AND VALERIE REALLY
WANT THIS THING TO PUMP.

IT'S GONNA BE CRAZY.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.

WHAT THE HECK YOU GUYS
DOING OVER HERE?

BURYING THE SUBWOOFER,
SECOND SUBWOOFER, MAN.

WHO'S GENIUS IDEAS WAS IT
TO PUT THE BELL END

RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE WALKWAY?

SUNSHINE TOLD ME TO,
RIGHT THERE.

YOU NOTICE THIS IS STEPPING
STONES TO GET AROUND THE GARDEN.

THEY'RE GONNA BE ON A NICE,
LITTLE JAUNT AND THEN - -

"OOH, GEEZ WHAT'S THAT?

HOW'D THAT GET THERE?"

REALLY, LUCAS? THIS IS WHAT
YOU'RE CALLING A WALKWAY?

FIND ANOTHER SPOT FOR IT.

YOU TOLD ME
TO PUT IT HERE.

HOW COULD I KNOW?

I THOUGHT THESE WERE
JUST DECORATIVE ROCKS.

HE THROWS IN ROCKS,
YOU KNOW...

START DIGGING IT OUT.

WE GOT TO MOVE IT.

I GUESS WE'LL
MOVE IT UP THERE.

THE TAYLORS HAVE BEEN WAITING
10 YEARS FOR THIS.

WE GOT TO MAKE SURE THAT

EVERYTHING IS EXACTLY
THE WAY THEY WANT IT

SO THAT THEY'RE HAPPY
THAT THEY WAITED 10 YEARS

TO FINALLY GET
THEIR BACKYARD OASIS.

NOW THAT ALL THE FINISHING
TOUCHES ARE DONE,

I BELIEVE THAT LUCAS
AND THE REST OF THE CREW

HAVE BROUGHT THE WOW FACTOR.

I'M ABOUT TO FINALLY
SHOW THE TAYLORS

THEIR NEW BACKYARD OASIS.

LUCAS,
WE ARE SO EXCITED.

ONE, TWO, THREE.

HOLY - -

TODAY, I'M ABOUT
TO FINALLY SHOW

THE TAYLORS
THEIR NEW BACKYARD OASIS.

EVERYTHING ON THIS BUILD

JUST GOT BIGGER
AND BETTER AND CRAZIER.

I'M TRUSTING YOU NOT TO DROP ME.

THIS WAS A HUGE UNDERTAKING
TO DO IN SHORT TIME,

BUT I FEEL LIKE
IT'S FINALLY HERE.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR THEM TO SEE IT.

SO, HOW ARE YOU GUYS
FEELING RIGHT NOW?

YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE
YOUR BACKYARD

COMPLETED FOR
THE FIRST TIME.

LUCAS, WE ARE SO EXCITED.
WE ARE SO EXCITED!

TO GET TO THIS POINT,
IT'S BEEN A STRUGGLE.

IT'S BEEN 10 YEARS
IN THE MAKING.

NOW, I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN A LITTLE
PESSIMISTIC ALONG THE WAY.

I DID EVERYTHING THAT
I'VE DONE BACK THERE - -

WENT OVER THE TOP TRYING
TO BRING THAT WOW FACTOR.

YOU GUYS WANT
TO FOLLOW ME OUT BACK?

MAN, I CAN'T WAIT.

ENOUGH TALKING, RIGHT?
LET'S GO.

I WANT TO GET ALL THE WAY

INTO THE BEST VANTAGE POINT

WHERE YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING
BEFORE YOU LOOK UP.

THIS IS THE PERFECT SPOT.

OKAY. GUYS, GET TOGETHER.
KEEP LOOKING DOWN.

THE EMOTION IS JUST
OVERWHELMING.

LET'S GET ON WITH THIS THING
BEFORE I FAINT.

ALL RIGHT, ON THE COUNT OF
THREE, YOU GUYS, I WANT YOU

TO LOOK UP AND TELL ME WHAT
YOU REALLY THINK ABOUT IT.

ONE, TWO, THREE.
HERE WE ARE.

HOLY ****!

WOW.

I WANT TO CRY.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

MY - -

THINK WHAT WE HAD
THERE, BABY.

MAN, THIS SOMETHING.

MY GOODNESS.

UNBELIEVABLE.

GEE WHIZ.
GOT TEARS COMING OUT MY EYES.

STOP THAT, STOP THAT.

ALL THE PALMS,

EVERYTHING IS ALL ABOUT
EMBRACING THE NATURE,

FRAMING THE VIEW OF THAT
BEAUTIFUL PRESERVE

YOU GUYS MOVED HERE BE AT.

WOW!
THIS IS IT!

A WATERFALL.
THAT - -

JUST UNBELIEVABLE.

I DIDN'T EXPECT IT
TO BE THIS... GREAT.

SO, I HEARD YOU SAY,
"WOW," FOUR TIMES.

SO, DOES THAT MEAN I BROUGHT
YOU YOUR WOW FACTOR?

WOW, YOU ARE
THREE QUARTERS THERE.

YOU ARE
THREE QUARTERS THERE.

HE WON'T EVEN
GIVE IT TO ME.

YOU STILL WON'T
GIVE IT TO ME.

WELL, I WANT
TO GET YOU TO 100%,

SO LET ME GIVE YOU
THE 100% TOUR.

BY THE TIME
WE'RE DONE WITH IT,

I'M PRETTY SURE YOU'LL BE
RIGHT THERE WITH ME.

YOU WANTED VALERIE TO BE
ABLE TO WALK DOWN IN HERE

AND NOT HAVE IT BE TOO DEEP.

SO I LEFT A LITTLE WALKING LEDGE
ALL THE WAY AROUND.

AND THEN WE LEFT
A DEEP SPOT

SO YOU COULD JUMP OFF
THE GROTTO

INTO THAT DEEP,
LITTLE SWIMMING HOLE.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU'RE 90% THERE.

YOU'RE NOT 100% YET, BUT...

ALL RIGHT, WE'LL KEEP
WALKING AROUND.

I HAVE A FEELING
I'LL GET THERE.

CHECK OUT YOUR BRIDGE.

DOESN'T THAT JUST MOVE
LIKE A NATURAL STREAM?

THE WATER'S RIPPLING
OVER THOSE ROCKS.

YOU CAN ACTUALLY SIT DOWN HERE
AND PUT YOUR FOOT IN THE WATER.

JUST UNBELIEVABLE.

THE COOL THING IS

YOU HAVE THIS HUGE,
EXPANSIVE DECK OVER THERE,

BUT I WANTED TO CREATE
ANOTHER LITTLE AREA

KIND OF SPECIAL
FOR YOU GUYS.

I HAD THIS GLACIAL ROCK
THAT I GOT,

ALMOST ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO,
WHEN YOU GUYS GOT YOUR HOUSE.

AND IT WAS SITTING
IN MY YARD.

WOW.

I HAD IT CUT IN HALF
AND POLISHED,

AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE

HOW INCREDIBLE THE INSIDE
OF THE ROCK WAS.

LOOK AT ALL THE QUARTZ.

LOOK AT THE DETAIL ON THERE.
DIFFERENT GRANITE.

THIS HERE IS OOLITE,

SOMETHING NATIVE TO FLORIDA
THAT'S ALSO NATURAL.

NOT PART OF THE BUDGET
OR ANYTHING.

THIS IS JUST MY SAYING THANK YOU

TO YOU FOR PUTTING
YOUR TRUST IN ME.

THANK YOU, MAN.
YEAH.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE.

HENRY, I KNOW I'M NOT
QUITE AT 100% YET,

BUT I STILL HAVE MORE
TO SHOW YOU, SO FOLLOW ME.

ALL RIGHT.
OKAY.

NOW, HENRY, I ALSO
LISTENED TO YOU WHEN YOU SAID

THAT YOU'RE A VEGETARIAN NOW.
YES.

SO, YOU KNOW,
I GOT YOU STARTED

WITH A VEGETABLE GARDEN
OVER HERE.

WE GOT IRRIGATION
GOING TO IT

SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO
REMEMBER TO HAND WATER.

YOU GOT A NICE VARIETY
OF VEGETABLE,

STUFF TO MAKE SALADS
WITH - - TOMATOES.

WOW, MAN.
THIS IS GREAT.

LOOK AT IT.

I MEAN, YOU WERE
THINKING ABOUT ME.

SOMEBODY WAS
THINKING ABOUT ME!

SEE, I LISTEN.

ABOUT MY HEALTH,
ABOUT WHAT I EAT.

THAT IS FANTASTIC.

I LOVE IT.
I LOVE IT.

WELL, WHAT AM I AT?
MAYBE 90...

SEVEN.
ALL RIGHT, COME WITH ME.

I GOT ONE MORE
SURPRISE FOR YOU.

CHECK THIS OUT, YOU GUYS.

GAVE YOU AN 80-INCH TV.

YOU CAN SEE THE SWEAT
ON YOUR PLAYERS' FACES.

YOU COULD PROBABLY BE WAY
BACK THERE IN THE GROTTO

AND SEE THAT.

THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, I LOVE IT.

IF YOU THINK THAT'S
BIG AND AWESOME,

I SAVED THE BEST FOR LAST.

CHECK IT OUT, MAN.

LUCAS, SHOW ME.
PLEASE, SHOW ME.

SHOW ME MY SWIMJET.
SHOW ME MY SWIMJET, LUCAS.

YEAH, YOU CAN SWIM FOREVER.

PLUS, INSTEAD OF FIVE THERAPY
JETS, I GAVE YOU EIGHT.

SO YOU GOT ROOM

FOR EIGHT PEOPLE TO HANG OUT
THERE, GET MASSAGED.

AND THE COOL THING IS,
WHEN YOU'RE IN THERE,

YOU CAN TURN IT ON AND OFF
WITH THE AIR SWITCH RIGHT HERE.

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.

BY GOLLY, THE SWIMJET - -
THAT TOOK IT OVER THE TOP.

MAN, YOU MADE IT.
YOU MADE IT.

DID WE HIT 100 YET?

YOU GOT 120%.

YEAH. WOW!

HOW AWESOME WAS
100% BACK THERE?

WE ARE GONNA SPEND
COUNTLESS HOURS OUT HERE.

REALLY.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

I NEVER THOUGHT
THIS DAY WOULD HAPPEN.

I REALLY DIDN'T.

WE WORKED
REALLY HARD FOR THIS.

I, -
THIS IS A LOT.

THEY LOVED IT.

THEY ACTUALLY HAD
TEARS IN THEIR EYES.

TO SEE SOMEBODY SO HAPPY BECAUSE
OF SOMETHING THAT YOU DID,

WHAT BIGGER REWARD IS THERE?

I'M JUST SO THRILLED

THAT YOU GUYS ARE HAPPY
WITH IT ALL.

PARTY TIME, GUYS!

THIS IS A CELEBRATION DAY
FOR US.

WE'RE GONNA OPEN
OUR HOUSE UP AND INVITE

EVERYBODY IN AND TO SAY,
"ENJOY, HAVE A GOOD TIME."

THIS IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN
DREAMING OF DOING

FOR A LONG TIME, AND NOW

THIS DAY IS FINALLY HERE.

YOU DON'T HAVE BE
SUPER RICH

TO ATTAIN YOUR DREAM.

AND LUCAS MADE THAT HAPPEN.

GO, GO, GO, GO!

WHOA!

WHOO!
