Alison and Leo are anxious to sell their poorly maintained, century old house and find a suitable home for their family of five. They jump into action demolishing the kitchen and bathroom, but when Penny's design plans force them to rip up seven layers of flooring they start to wonder if their efforts could have been better spent elsewhere. As Alison and Leo both put in time at their day jobs, they rely on friends to keep things rolling. Alison holds a bake and toy sale to raise funds, but it's her impressive barter for cabinetry that keeps costs low. In order to avoid becoming renters once again, Chantale and Fred must update their kitchen, de-clutter and stage the basement and the most difficult of all-reclaim their dining room from their 3-year old. They get a jump on the competition, but blow their lead when counter installation plans fall through. Chantale hosts a euchre tournament to raise funds. Will a win be in the cards?
