It’s Grant’s 30th birthday and Scotty puts on a party for him at Grumpy’s Mini Golf in Cowes.
Jesse and Paige don’t show up, after having a massive fight the night before as they try to finish their guest bedroom. Paige tells Jesse in the heated fight that she doesn’t want to be on The Block anymore and that he isn’t listening to her concerns.
The other Blockheads are starting to notice the tension between the engaged Perth couple.
Ricky and Haydn are late to Grant’s party after celebrating winning the Bar Crusher boat the night before.
The Blockinator Keith surprises the contestants at mini golf, making his first appearance on The Block for this year. Keith’s role is to conduct a mini golf challenge, which Mimi surprisingly wins, taking home $1000 that she gives to Grant for his birthday.
Keith then returns to The Block and catches up with his old mate Dan to have a look at all the houses.
The experience of The Block is really starting to get to Jesse and Paige. They have a huge argument with Nadia from The Block Shop after they accuse her of not delivering the right materials for their guest bedroom. They call her to berate her at 1am, in the morning which doesn’t go down well.
From Nadia’s point of view, she has always been very clear with her communication and she has done nothing wrong. The next morning after the call, Jesse and Paige deny the call took place despite it being filmed.
Scott calls “tools down” and all of our Blockheads finish their guest bedroom with some fantastic results.
House No.1 Jesse and Paige spent $14,382
The judges loved the fact Jesse and Paige have embraced the Modern Colonial style. Shaynna thought it was very sophisticated but not juvenile. A fantastic job.
Score 26.5/30
House No.2 Courtney and Grant spent $8,946
Marty loved the curves and everything else about Courtney and Grant’s guest bedroom. He thinks Courtney and Grant are now the front runners in the competition. He described House No.2 as an “auctioneer’s dream.”
Score 27/30
House No.3 Ricky and Haydn spent $13,948
The judges were very impressed that the boys had bounced back after last week’s disastrous bathroom. They could tell the quality of the build was much higher, as Duncan Miller joined the team. The judges have coined the style of Ricky and Haydn’s house – it’s called Holiday Resort.
Score 26.5/30
House No.4 Kylie and Brad spent $9,504
The kid’s room was a real hit for the judges, it feels like finally Kylie and Brad have turned a corner. Everything for the first time on The Block makes sense, and the judges for the first time are all really happy with a room delivered by Kylie and Brad.
Score 27.5/30
House No.5 Kristian and Mimi spent $18,135
The judges absolutely loved the bedhead. Another stunning room by Kristian and Mimi. The styling is just perfect.
Score 28/30
Kylie and Brad refused to play their bonus penguin so Kristian and Mimi took out the win again.
