Thank you for making us
ugly cry every episode,

quashing This Is Us.
So thank you.

[Jonathan] Yes, she made us
laugh and cry

on the blockbuster
hit series, This Is Us.

We'll hide behind the AC unit.

[Jonathan] But Mandy Moore
has been singing...

-Oh, my God!
-[Mandy] Surprise!

[Celina] Mandy!

[Jonathan]
... and acting her way
into our hearts

for over two decades.

Hello. How are you?

[Jonathan] And this time,

she's taking on a new role
as builder and designer.

[Mandy]
Celina is a nanny, a chef,

a surrogate parent,
a house manager.

I mean, she literally does
everything and anything.

You don't have to cry.

You deserve everything, Cece.

[Jonathan]
Their friendship runs deep

and Mandy knows the backyard
is Celina's favorite spot.

I feel like an outdoor
kitchen would be incredible.

[Drew]
There's no slowing you down.

[Jonathan] Come rain...

[Mandy]
We have a timeline, guys.

[Jonathan] or shine...

[Mandy] I think this might be
better to throw on the sofa.

[Jonathan] Mandy is giving
back to the woman...

Keep them close.

[Jonathan]
who has given her so much.

-Open your eyes.
-[laughs] Oh, my goodness!

[laughs]

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan]
Do you ever get tired

of having so many talents
that it's just exhausting?

Singing, acting,

what is a talent actually that
somebody would not know about?

-Can you clog?
-[Drew] Can you be like...

-Yeah, ever heard
of Professional clogging?
-Clog?

Um, no. That's kind
of where it ends, guys.

Just the singing and acting.

[Drew]
Well, you do it very well.

Thank you for making us
ugly cry watching This Is Us.

So thank you.

♪♪ Get down ♪

[Mandy]
It was a real challenge

when I got cast on the show,

and I had no idea
that the show

was gonna, sort of,
play in time.

I read the second episode
and I was like, "Oh, okay.

So we're jumping in time
eight years

and we're jumping ahead
to the present day,

and I'm also gonna play
the 65-year-old mother

-to these, you know,
35-year-old children?"
-Yeah.

That was a terrifying
prospect.

[Jonathan] Now every offer
that comes out to you is,

"We've got a great role
for a 68-year-old."

-Yeah, exactly.
-[Drew] Yeah. Yeah.

-She's a young 70...
-Yeah.

-I can't... Yeah.
-It's you or Jane Fonda.

-We just haven't decided
who's gonna play it best.
-Exactly!

Oh, man.

So I met Celina
when I was 15,

when I was first starting
out in the business,

then I moved to Los Angeles.

She worked
with a manager of mine.

So I would see her coming
and going as a young person

and then we didn't sort
of really enter
each other's lives

for real until 2009.

So it's been like, you know,
almost 15 years

that we've known each other

and I see her
just about every day,

and she has become closer
than family.

She has seen me through,
like, every ebb and flow

of my life in career,

and, yeah, she's just been
a sort of constant in my life.

I love her deeply.
I will do anything for her.

This is someone who's not used
to people taking care of her,

so the fact
that I can be a part

of giving this back to her
means everything.

[upbeat music playing]

Do you think you know what
esthetics Celina would love?

I do.

Um, I personally love design.

Um, I love working
on our own homes and so...

Yeah. And I think Celina
trusts my eye and my taste.

[Drew]
So she knows nothing, right?

[Mandy] Celina really has
no idea what's going on.

Andrea, her daughter,
has, kind of, been roped in

to help keep this surprise
for all us.

So she's aware.

[Drew] All right.
Which house is it?

-I think it's right up here.
-Okay.

[Jonathan]
Don't park too, close. Yeah.

-[Mandy] Yeah. We wanted this
to be a surprise.
-[Drew] Sneaky.

[Drew] This is it.

I'm stuck.

-I'm stuck.
-[laughs]

[grunts]

They had the child lock on?

Okay. So I'm just gonna text
Andrea right now

that we're gonna go
around the back.

I know Celina so well

that I know how much she talks
about her backyard

and specifically how much
of a gathering place it is

for her and her family.

-[Drew] Hello! [laughs]
-[Mandy] Hey!

-How are you? How are you?
-[Jonathan] That was like...

[Mandy] This is Andrea.
This is Celina's daughter.

Nice to meet you.

-[Mandy] How are you?
-I'm good.

[Drew] So this is the space?

This is the secret space that
we're talking about, right?

[Jonathan] Um, does your mom
know anything, by the way?

-Nothing?
-No.

-Okay.
-She's completely clueless.

-[Mandy] She's in the dark.
-She's in the dark, yeah.

How does your mom
use the backyard?

Does she just kick out here,
grab a drink from the fridge?

Yeah. So it'll be like
the weekend.

Dad would be on the grill,

my aunt
would be playing music,

and everyone
would just be talking,

the dogs are running around.

And then, me and my brother
will come over

and it'll just be a party.

-Does anyone ever do this?
-No, don't.

When we're kids, he used to
always flip me in the hammock.

[Jonathan] Why don't
you bring your mom out?

[Drew] Bring her here,
we'll hide behind the AC unit.

[laughter]

[Mandy]
Distilling down who Celina is

and what she adds to my life,

what she means to me
is challenging.

Celina is a nanny, a chef,

a surrogate parent,
a house manager.

I mean, she literally does
everything

and anything in our lives.

I feel like I wouldn't be
able to get through

a single day without her.

And I think
since becoming a parent,

watching her
with the boys specifically,

it's made me fall in love
with her even more.

She's just one of the most,

like, devout, loving people
I've ever met.

I'm so grateful
for everything

she allows us to do

and just the tremendous value

as a human and a loving force

that she brings
into our world.

-[laughs]
-[Mandy] Surprise!

-[Celina] Mandy!
-How are you?

Oh, how are you?

[Celina speaking]

[laughs]

It's weekend, she wasn't
expecting me in her home.

Surprise, I'm here!

I love your backyard.

But I know this is something
you really wanna work on,
right?

This is something you wanna...

You wanna create a space
that your family can come

and hang out here, right?

This is our, um, area.

-Yeah.
-In the weekend.

I wanna help you fix this up

but I can't really do this
all by myself

so I brought
some friends with me.

-Hello.
-[Jonathan] Hello.

-How are you?
-[laughs]

What's happening?

-So these guys...
-[Jonathan] Nice to meet you.

-are gonna just...
-Nice meeting you, too.

[Mandy] completely transform
this space

for you and your family,
Celina.

Thank you.
I mean, I'm speechless.

It was, like, kind of pinching
myself, like, is this real?

Am I dreaming?

What does it mean to you

when you know that Mandy
considers you like family?

And she said the first person
who came to mind,

the only person
who came to mind

that she would wanna do
this for was you.

My life changed
when I meet Mandy.

She's an angel.

I'm from El Salvador.

I came, you know,
when I was 17

with $20 in my pocket
with no future.

My life is, like, up and down

and, um, and she's always
been there for me.

She always guide me
and made me strong.

You're incredible strong,
Celina.

You do not give yourself
enough credit.

You have gone through
a lot in your life

and you always
come out on top.

Cece, you know
you're everything.

We just couldn't survive
without you.

It takes a village
and we are the luckiest

to have you, sort of,
leading our village.

-I mean--
-I'm the lucky one.

[Mandy] No, no. You're
the surrogate mom for me,

for Taylor,
for Gus, and Ozzy.

And I feel so grateful
to have this opportunity,

to be able to give you back
a little bit

of what you give to us.

You don't have to cry.

-[Celina laughs]
-It's happy.

You deserve everything, Cece.

[Celina] Oh, Mandy.

I love you.

I'm so excited for you.

I'm excited
for your whole family.

Oh, my God.

Wait till you see
what's in store for you.

Is that what
you call her, Cece?

-Is that her? Okay.
-[Mandy] Cece, yeah.

My youngest,
he couldn't say Celina,

so now your name
is Cece forever.

-[Drew] Oh, yeah.
-[Jonathan] Cece.

-[Drew] Well, big group hug.
-Big group hug!

And we need
all pinky fingers out

because we do need a promise
from you guys.

No peeking.

No peeking while we do
the process here, right?

-[Celina] I promise.
-[Drew] Okay, good.

-[Celina] Yes. I promise.
-I trust you.

-Yes. [laughs]
-All right.

So Drew and I
are just gonna take you.

-Yeah.
-And we're just...

Oh!

gonna grab you
right out of here.

-Bye!
-[Celina laughing]

I'm so grateful
for this chance

and this opportunity
to really encompass

my love and gratitude
for Celina.

Celina likes clean,
she likes sort of neutral.

So I feel like
if we could give her...

You keep saying zen, but
that's what pops in my head,

like something really zen back
here that feels like an oasis?

The space just needs
to be upgraded.

I just... I feel...
We need to elevate it.

We need to, sort of,
bring in elements

that really mean
something to them.

It's really dark
back here, too.

[Jonathan] It's super dark.

Because of the pitch they've
got it on, it comes so low.

You wanna start...
Like, what do we have?

Oh, wow.

The ledger board
is pulling away
from the structure.

As soon as I walked around
into the backyard,

I could see that this overhang
was not permitted.

The materials
are not gonna stand up.

It's so heavy because it looks
like it's built
with dimensional lumber

and then has asphalt
shingles on top.

So all that weight
is just resting on these posts

but slowly is pulling away
from the house.

Maybe the only thing saving it
is the chimney here

because it looks like it's
built around the chimney.

Yeah, this is definitely
not legal.

So we would wanna
pull this down

and make sure that everything
is done properly.

Right now, they only have
a dining table out here

and then they have
that old barbecue.

Are you thinking...

I feel like an outdoor kitchen
would be incredible.

It's something where
we could incorporate a smoker

or some sort of grill, like,
in the outdoor kitchen space?

And then like a beautiful
place for them to dine

and maybe, like,
maybe a seating area

-if there's space for it.
-Yeah.

Do they need a second fridge?
Like, is this...

Oh, it's not...
There's nothing in it. Yeah.

So if they don't need it,
then, yeah, it should go.

I think if we can relocate
the air conditioning,

get rid of the fridge,

it would free up
so much space.

-I love these fruit trees...
-Yeah.

[Mandy]
and I think she said her dad

planted all
of these back here.

So if we could leave that

and incorporate that
into the design,

I think
she'd really like that.

Do we want a hammock
in the final design?

[Mandy] No, no hammock.

I think we should need
to have a full lounging area.

-Yeah.
-If we could move
the air conditioner,

we could have
a full lounging area,

outdoor dining area.

We gotta put
an outdoor kitchen, then.

An outdoor kitchen,
like, maybe somewhere
along that wall there?

-If it could work.
-That would be you, designer.

[laughs]

[Jonathan] My only concern
is it's tight here,

right in this walkway here

because we'd have
to have a post

probably in about
the same position.

So figuring out how big
we want it to be...

Like how deep it could be?

[Jonathan]
Yeah. How deep it needs to be,

how wide it needs to be,

and also what do
we wanna put in it?

Do we want a grille,
do we want a smoker?

We can do a fridge, we can put
all kinds of stuff in it.

We can even maybe wrap around

and have something
that incorporates the post

so it almost feels purposeful?

Mmm-hmm. I like that.

[Jonathan]
I do have a question.

The wall, what do you think
about doing
some sort of cladding?

[Mandy]
Oh, that'd be gorgeous.

The block wall
never looks super inviting.

No, it's not appealing.

If we could do that,
I'd love it.

What about the flooring?

Is this something that
we would have to break up?

-[Jonathan] Yes.
-[Drew] Well, it's very uneven

because you have
a slab over here

and it looks like
they've poured
a bunch of different times,

and then they have
all the pavers.

We could sand it
to look like it's pavers,

-like, or tile.
-Oh, cool.

-[Jonathan] Oh, yeah.
-I love that.

I actually love
how Mandy's been thinking

about all of these things.

She's already thought about
all of these different ideas

while incorporating
to the design.

To start, we'll remove
the old patio roof,

pavers, and concrete,
and add a new concrete patio

with a striking pattern
etched into the surface

to give it
the wow factor it deserves.

The new patio will feature
three distinct zones.

Zone one, a stylish,
state-of-the-art
outdoor kitchen,

dolomite counters,
matching slab backsplash,

a fridge,
and a six-burner grill

will give Celina
everything she needs

to wow her guests
at weekend barbecues.

Zone two, a luxe lounge area

centered by a chic fire table

and cozy chairs
that will offer Celina,

her family, and guests
a place to kick back
and relax.

And zone three,
a dining area that will feel

like they brought
the inside outside.

Perfect for Celina's
large family gatherings.

The garden area needs
a more Zen-like backdrop,

so we'll cover
the cinder block wall

in composite planks
installed in contemporary
horizontal lines.

The new flower beds include
Celina's beloved fruit trees

and low maintenance plants.

Finally, the centerpiece
of the design,

a metal pergola featuring
remote-controlled louvers

to spoil Celina
and her guests

with the choice of sun
or shade

at the push of a button.

Timeline,
it looks like a small space,

but there's structure
that we have to do.

There's a lot
of concrete work.

There's a whole
outdoor kitchen.

So we probably
are gonna need...

Can you do it in three weeks?

-[Drew laughs]
-Come on.

I know you guys are magic.

Three weeks.

Well, the real story
is that Mandy is back filming

in three weeks and so she
wants to surprise Celina

before she goes back
on location.

Well, we can jump in
because there's not much
to prep for out here.

Why don't we meet
back here tomorrow,

I'll bring all the tools
and we will dive in

and pull out
and wreck as much as we can.

[Drew] Don't wear
your fancy sweaters

because it's gonna get dirty
and it's gonna get hot.

-It is gonna be hot and dirty.
-Great. Let's do it.

-[Jonathan] All right.
-Hmm.

There's no better feeling

than being in this position
and being able to give back

to someone
who truly deserves it.

But the best part
hasn't even happened yet.

[upbeat music playing]

-Tilt it back to here.
-[Drew] Yeah.

You can put a little weight on
this and I'll slide it my way.

And show me again... Or tilt
back again or more--

-Uh, how far can I--
-A little, a little more.

Get right to the edge
of the board.

-Is that the end?
-All right.

And now, tilt it back.

Okay.

-Boom. All right.
-Bam.

Wow. You think
the unit itself is dirty?

Look at that.

Uh, what are you good
with doing a little
jackhammering as well,

-because we can--
-Sure.

I've never done it,
but I'm down.

[Jonathan] It's like
the sword and the stone.

-Ooh, it's heavy.
-[Jonathan] Jackhammer begins.

[machine whirring]

You wanna go down
a little bit.

[machine whirring]

Good. And now push down.

You're gonna basically
tee it up.

There you go.

I've never been a part of any
sort of demolition before.

I'm excited
to get my hands dirty.

We're just gonna push on it.
Like that. Boom.

So you can use it
not only to break but to pry.

Oh, they didn't even pour
under here.

They're just...
They just poured a border.

This is all sand.

[Mandy] Wow.

So really, it's just breaking
up this border?

-Yeah.
-[machine whirring]

[Mandy]
I wanna get things right.

So part of my personality,

I'm like, "I wanna be shown
the proper way
to do something."

[machine whirring]

[Mandy]
They're great teachers.

They were patient enough
to show me the ropes.

[Jonathan]
Why don't we do this?

This is coming up
so much easier

than I was anticipating.

Why don't I keep going with
this, if you guys can go up

and start ripping
the asphalt shingles off?

-[Drew] Absolutely.
-Let's do it.

Have you been
on a roof before?

-I have.
-[Jonathan] Oh, really?

I've never been a part of any
sort of demolition before.

Slide underneath.

You wanna slide the teeth
under and then pull it up.

I told the brothers like,
"I'm ready to join the crew

and just come along with you

to every project
moving forward."

Great. Oh, see it's...

It comes up pretty easy.

[Mandy] Oh, it's hard
to get the scrape in.

Yeah. Slide a little like...
Just get the teeth just above

and then just slide
right like that.

Then get under
and then go down.

Got it. Okay.

There is a catharsis
to doing that sort of work

where you're just like,
"Okay, let me get in there.

Let me start, like, ripping
these shingles off."

There's no slowing you down.

[Mandy]
If I can rip, I'm good.

[Drew] This is the kind
of renovation that I like

because the demolition's
easy.

The concrete,
the pavers came up easy.

In a matter of 15, 20 minutes
we have the whole roof
area done.

Oh, wow. Yeah.

This all just comes apart
so easily now.

[Drew] But for the roof
structure itself,

we need to bring in the full
crew to bring it down safely.

I know the timeline
is pretty tight,

but I have the utmost faith
in the brothers

that they're going
to be able to deliver.

And pack in the landscaping,

the outdoor kitchen,

the dining area,
the lounge area.

I believe we are
gonna be able to do it.

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan] With the demo done,

we've started work
on the new concrete patio

and I think concrete
is the perfect solution here

compared to stone
or wood decking.

It's gonna last a lot longer

and it needs pretty much
no maintenance.

And when it's fully dry,

we'll etch a pattern into
the surface of the concrete

just to elevate
the entire look.

You had some amazing ideas.

I love how
you just went through

like a boss and you're like,

"I've already been
thinking about this.

We want pergolas
and outdoor kitchens,

and move air conditioners."

Why don't you take over.

I'm retiring.
You're the designer.

What do you envision
with the space?

What do I envision
with this space?

Well, I mean, I was kind of
feeling like we were chatting

-about this potentially
being the outdoor kitchen area
-Yes.

and maybe this is lounge zone,
dining zone.

Yes. So the challenge
we're having here,

which I'm trying to figure
out, in order to maximize

the size of the pergola,

we only have
about five feet of clearance

-between the wall in here.
-[Mandy] Oh, wow.

And our outdoor kitchen
would be 30 inches deep.

Got it.

So it would be a little tight.

Drew had mentioned
potentially wrapping the--

-Doing sort of a return there.
-[Jonathan] Yeah, to here.

So I drew it
and it's an option

and you'd have a little bit
more counter space.

[Mandy] But this version
has the smoker.

[Jonathan]
Exactly. Which I feel like...

I feel like that's gonna be
more important to them

than having that extra little
bit of counter space there.

Especially knowing
that they love to cook.

Carlos, Celina's husband,
he loves to cook

and he especially loves
his slow cooker.

So I thought it was important
to make sure that was a part

of what we implemented
in the kitchen design as well.

[Jonathan]
If we did that over here,

it still would be
kind of tight in this area.

What would this clearance be?

[Jonathan]
Our two pinch points
are gonna be here and here.

[Mandy] Mmm-hmm.

[Jonathan]
So in an ideal world,

I would have the outdoor
kitchen come, kind of,
like this

to about here.
Something like that.

[Mandy] Mmm-hmm.

If we can get everything
that we need in this space,

which I feel like we can,

then this gives us
enough clearance

between these areas here.

What would you wanna do
for the cover

'cause we can do, you know,
a dry stack look,

we can do just stucco,
we can do different colors?

Oh, I think she would love
this, sort of, stacked stone.

-Okay.
-I think that's elegant
but it also is, sort of, zen.

It's neutral enough
but, like, it has enough,

like, texture that...

I think it kind of keeps it
interesting for the eye.

Because I think that's what's
lacking in a backyard space.

Yeah.

You don't have a lot
of texture.

You don't have a lot of stuff
breaking it up.

So I think something like that
would be really nice.

Yeah, I agree.

Because I know
I can get the dolomite

for the surface
of the countertop

I think would be nice,
'cause it'll brighten it up.

-And this is a real stone.
-Wow.

-[Jonathan] So I think--
-But very durable for outside?

[Jonathan]
Yeah. This will be nice.

This is going a lot faster
and a lot easier

-than I was anticipating.
-Oh, good.

[Jonathan] What do you think
for back here?

Because it doesn't get a lot
of sun back there,

we cannot do,
like, a regular grass

'cause it just... It'll die.

So if we do something
that's really hardy,

the Mondo grass here, you can
even do rosemary ground cover.

-Wow.
-All of this
will be a lot hardier.

I would probably say
maybe the Mondo.

It looks really beautiful
when it's in.

It almost looks like a blanket
on the ground.

-And...
-Ooh. I love that.

You were also talking
about potentially,

like, cladding
the wall there.

Yeah. So, I feel like
if we break it up

-and do something like this.
-[Mandy] Mmm-hmm.

[Jonathan] This is
a little bit more modern.

This is a little bit
more classic.

-I like the classic.
-Yeah.

I think the classic
is perfect for them.

For the pergola,
what color are you thinking?

Because we can either go nice
and modern with the black.

If we're gonna stay in,
sort of, the warm,

more traditional family,
I feel like maybe the bronze.

-[Jonathan] The bronze? Yeah.
-[Mandy] Yeah.

[Jonathan] This would be nice.

Oh, that's really gorgeous.

-So, hey, you start to see...
-[Mandy] All of that together.

[Jonathan]
the whole story play and...

Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm.
I'm liking it.

I think Celina
is going to love it.

-Yeah. Oh, my gosh.
-[Mandy] Come on.

I can, sort of, gauge what her
taste, sort of, lean towards

and I feel like
we really nailed it.

Now, that is a patio
to remember.

That is a patio to remember.

Amazing. I love it.

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan]
It is the end of week one

and we've started prepping
the cinder block wall

for the new composite planks

that will be a much better
backdrop for the garden.

At the same time,
we've started to build

the new metal pergola.

It's much higher
than the old roof

and it has a louver top
that allows light

to stream into the house
a patio below.

We're also working as fast
as we can now

because the weather forecast
calls for some pretty epic
rain ahead.

As predicted, the rain
has been pouring nonstop.

Work has been shut down
for days

and it's supposed
to keep raining

for the remainder
of the build schedule.

[Drew] All right.
There is no stopping us.

Rain, shine, wind.

[Jonathan] Mandy needs
to be back on her set

the day after
we're scheduled to finish.

So hitting the brakes
until the rain clears

is not an option.

We tried to start
and then obviously the rain,
kind of, stopped us down,

but, you know, it's going
to... There's no stopping now.

-We just gotta keep going.
-We have a timeline, guys.

Yeah. This rain is really
unheard of for Los Angeles.

We're a bit unlucky.

I'm really determined
to stay on track.

-It's called an atmosphere--
-[Drew] Atmospheric river.

-[Mandy] True.
-I say before the river comes,

why don't we actually try to
get the rest of the pergola?

You... If you guys do one
side, you guys do this side,

-I'll do that side.
-Great.

[Drew] And we'll see
who finishes first.

If you wanna grab that side,
I'll pass them to you

and we're just gonna start
putting them in the slots
one at a time.

So we're gonna go over
and above on your side...

-[Mandy] Got it.
-[Jonathan] so I can
get around me.

There we go.
We're upside down.

Oh, we are? Is that right?

[Jonathan] Yup.

-That's perfect.
-Great.

This comes together fast.

It really does.

[Jonathan] I go back
a little bit further.

-There we go.
-[Drew] Yup.

[Jonathan] You got it.

-Amazing. All right.
-[Mandy] All right. Perfect.

How's it feel to be
a part of creating...

-[Mandy laughs]
-something new
and exciting for them?

[Mandy] I love this.

I'm glad we went with
the bronze over, like,

the traditional
sort of powdered black.

It just feels
that much warmer.

I never imagined
I'd be in her backyard

helping put up a pergola.

-Dude.
-[Mandy] This is the most
incredibly powerful way

to say thank you to someone.

Wow.

-[Jonathan] Yeah.
-Amazing.

I love the fact that
obviously those slats move

and we'll be able
to give her shade

or sun, like,
whatever she wants.

She'll be able to control it
from her smartphone,

which is also
a really cool feature.

[Jonathan] And this is...
Like, not all pergolas
are built the same too,

the fact that this has
a gutter system built into it

that you don't even
see from below.

-Yeah.
-Sometimes the downside
of a pergola is

if it's a regular
wood pergola,

as soon as it rains,
can't use it.

With this, rain or shine,

you can use it no problem.

[Mandy] Uh, Drew?

[Drew] Yes.

I think you made a little bit
of a mistake there.

-You put it on the wrong peg.
-[Jonathan] Ha!

No. What?

-No.
-[Jonathan] Ha!

[Drew] I'm perfect.
What are you talking about?

I don't make mistakes.

[laughter]

[Drew] So once we get
all the track up, there's a...

There's a little component
we added at the end

that actually
makes it powered.

-So we have to
hook that all up...
-Oh, great.

-and then this is gonna be a--
-Actually, if you guys
wanna prep on that,

I'll get the last two in
and we'll be ready
at the same time.

-Cool. Let's do it.
-We got that.

[upbeat music playing]

[upbeat music playing]

[Drew] It's the end
of our second week,

and for a few hours

we're getting a break
from the rain.

So we're taking
full advantage

of our semi-dry conditions

to work
on the concrete patio.

[Jonathan] We're applying
an acid to the surface

of some of the squares
to give them
a rougher texture

that will contrast
the smooth squares,

giving this patio
a fashionable

checkerboard effect.

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan] Yeah. Luckily
this process is quick-dry

because as predicted,
the rain has returned.

So we've closed
the pergola louvers

just to keep both
the concrete and Mandy dry

while we tackle
the wall cladding.

Oh, it's so mucky over here.

I love how somehow
I got you guys

-working in the rain.
-[Drew] [laughs] Yeah.

[Mandy] And I'm shaded
under the pergola.

[Drew] I thought
if I was under the tree

it would be less rain,
but in reality,

we have a lot more drippage
coming off the tree.

[Mandy] I do have a question.

Why did you guys
paint the cinder box black?

[Jonathan]
Interesting you asked that

because if you've ever seen
someone do a slat wall,

like, inside or anywhere,

because there's a little space
between the boards,

if you leave it white or gray,

if the light hits it
just right,

you can see that
and it looks weird.

-It looks unfinished.
-Got it.

By painting it black,
it disappears

and just blends
into the grain.

-Yeah.
-Okay, guys.

I'm gonna use this saw
which is a little...

-[Jonathan]
You're good over there?
-terrifying to me.

Just hold it in place
so the board doesn't move

-once you line it up.
-Okay.

[whirring]

-I did it.
-[Drew] Nice.

[Mandy]
To be trusted with a saw,

it's a totally new
endeavor for me.

[whirring]

-How can I help over here?
-Oh, great.

-You wanna do the next one?
-Sure.

To not only, like,
gift this to Celina

but to really have been
a part of helping create it

and put it together feels
so much more meaningful.

And I think that piece

is gonna be
even more special to her.

It's amazing. All right.

[upbeat music playing]

The rain is somehow
getting heavier...

-It's insane.
-on this project.

-Actually--
-We soldier on.

[Jonathan] I've actually
never seen it like this

in L.A. before.

So what are we
doing right now?

Because the kitchen
we put together...

-Yeah.
-doesn't have
any kind of a backsplash,

we're gonna build
a backsplash.

So this is the frame
for the backsplash.

Then we'll take our stone
all the way up

and create that shelf
we, kind of, talked about.

Yes. And we're taking
pretty much everything

that you would have
in an indoor kitchen

-and bringing it outside.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.

While we do that,
Drew is in the back,

finishing the kitchen
cabinet assembly.

-Do you want me to cut first?
-I'll try.

You're...
Are you feeling the pressure?

-I am feeling the pressure.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.

All right.

[equipment whirring]

[Jonathan] You look terrified.

-I am terrified.
-[Jonathan] Why? It's okay.

You're doing it all safe.
You're doing fine.

Just feels like
I have my life in my hand.

Well, you know what?

Then we need
to capture this moment.

Ready? You go one more time

with the sparks
and everything.

-Oh, God.
-And I'm gonna get
an epic photo.

One sec.

Go.

[Mandy]
Using the angle grinder

was definitely one
of the harder things

I've been asked to do
on this project.

It was terrifying
seeing the sparks fly

and making sure
that I was cutting it

at the right angle.

[Jonathan]
Smile while you're doing it.

[Mandy] I'm learning as I go.

But it's fun.

And you feel accomplished.

-I did it.
-[Jonathan] You did it. See?

This project is starting
to feel real now.

I can see all
of the moving parts

sort of coalescing
and, like, coming together

to create this, like,
beautiful outdoor
experience for her.

And it's, um,
it's really special.

Careful. It's a little
muddy right here.

-[Jonathan] Yes.
-Oh, here we go.

Look at you hardcore.
Not even wearing a raincoat.

Oh, look at you.

I built myself
a nice little home.

We're just a little higher
than I think we should be,

'cause I didn't want it
to go above the plain fence

'cause we still have
the stone going on top.

So my thought is I might cut

a little bit more
off our supports.

We'll take it down
just a hair,

and then everything
should line up nicely.

But yeah. No, this looks...

-This looks great.
-[Mandy] That'd be great.

Call me crazy.
I know it's raining,

but should we do a dry fit
of the appliances

to make sure
everything fits okay?

That would be
the wettest dry fit ever done.

-[laughter]
-It's so bad.

I think Celina's
gonna be bowled over

by every bit of design

that this kitchen
is integrating.

It's so elegant.

[Jonathan] These are so cool.

Wow, this is such
a major upgrade

-from the smoker they had.
-[Jonathan] Right.

And can I just say
like having the AC unit

not here anymore,
we relocated it,

it just feels
so much more open here.

Space for them to congregate,

to hang out,
to celebrate, to relax.

To crank the tunes.

-[Drew] Absolutely.
-[Mandy] Bingo.

I feel like
we need to incorporate

some sort of musical element
if possible,

like some sort
of speaker system

-or a record player
or something...
-Yeah.

because music is a really
important part of,

like, their...
When they gather.

Celina loves records
and her record player.

She has one inside
in the collection of vinyl
that she cherishes,

so to create a way
to bring the record player

safely outside
will blow her away.

Yeah, I know, absolutely.

I mean, we can...
We can have speakers out here.

I mean, if we did
build something

even if it was up against
the house right here...

-Yeah.
-[Drew] I mean
this will protect...

If it is raining, we can
make sure that this closed,

but also something
that can take a little bit
of weather and heat too.

What Celina does
for my family,

I cannot put into words,

and so the fact that
I can be a tiny part

in giving something
like this back to her,

this gift, I just...

Like I daydream about

how they're gonna
use this space.

All right. I'm gonna shove
this off to the side for now.

Do you guys wanna
grab some plastic

and we'll just recover them?

[Drew] Rain, shine, whatever,
it's getting done.

[Mandy] Great.

I got on the ladder
in the rain.

I was on your roof
tearing off shingles.

You went on the roof?

-Yeah.
-Mandy.

Deep breath.

Open your eyes.

[Celina] [laughs] My goodness.

[upbeat music playing]

[Drew] With just
three days to go,

thankfully we have nothing
but sun in the forecast

which we desperately need
to get this job done on time.

[Jonathan] At the house,
we're painting up

the brick chimney
both down below and up top

so it better blends
with the new design,

and the break
in weather means

that the dolomite countertop

is finally getting installed
in the upper kitchen.

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan] Meanwhile,
I'm checking on the progress

of the stereo console
that Mandy wants

for Celina and her family.

[Dave]
Yeah, we'll just adjust it

-and then at one end--
-[Drew] Whoa, whoa.

Oh, hey.

Is this the piece?

This is it.

Oh, my God.

We got a little jumpstart.

[Drew] Dave and Zack build
incredible custom furniture.

I already sent them sketches
of what we're looking for

but I wasn't expecting
this much progress so fast.

I love this, how you
already fabricating it

because I thought I would
bring the record player,

you can see the beautiful
wood tone with--

That's so cool.

[Drew] I brought some
records too by the way.

I, kind of, figured
maybe we can look at

how we would position
the records

next to the record player.

The new stereo console
will feature

sleek midcentury
modern lines,

a hidden compartment
that house a turntable
and speakers,

plus base for TV.

I love the low-profile front.

I think this is
absolutely gorgeous.

It has that midcentury-modern
vibe to it.

The one concern I do have,

what are we gonna do
for weather rating?

[Dave] White oak is really
good outdoors as it is,

so we can do
either an oil finish

which, kind of, goes
with that midcentury feel,

also outdoor-rated
which holds up really well.

Or there's
a three-part clear coat

that's outdoor-rated
but it doesn't have that

warm wood feel that stays
on the lighter color.

Well, I don't think we wanna
keep the lighter color.

I think it's nice to have
something a little bit darker.

Not that we have
to have that dark,

but can we pull the gold
out of there a little bit?

-It's a bit too red.
-[Dave] Yeah.

-[Drew] Is that--
-[Dave] Absolutely.

[Drew] Up against the house,

it's gonna send out
like a piece of art.

I love the idea of hanging it.

If the record player
basically sits

sort of up there,

then the vinyl
can all be right here.

Yeah, you would... You would
have it like this. Right?

You rifle through
like you're at a record store.

-[Dave] Yeah.
-Let me put that.

Okay. And if it's this low,

that's gonna recess
into the table
another few inches,

and that's actually probably
a really comfortable height

for even the grandkids.

Is there any more welding
you're going to do?

Because I personally
love welding

and I see some pieces here
that haven't been
attached yet.

We have plenty.

Can I... Can I hang
for a little bit and play?

-Absolutely.
-[Drew] Let's do this.

-You'll make some sparks.
-[Drew] Yeah.

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan]
There's been so much
activity in the backyard

over the past few days
as we scramble
to make up lost time,

and Celina has volunteered
to go stay

with her daughter, Andrea,
until tomorrow

so she wouldn't be
tempted to peek.

The mondo grass is going in

as are the kitchen
appliances,

and Mandy is here to help us
with some final planting.

Did you know that plants
gets stressed
just like humans?

-Yeah?
-And if you
jostle it around too much,

it can actually die
because it, like, dies

of, like, shock and sadness.

Well, let's not do that
to that poor plant.

Give her a chance
to thrive back here.

[Drew]
Does it feel a little nicer
back here than it was before?

I think so. Yeah.

I mean, this is
a vast improvement.

I don't even think
she's gonna recognize it,

I hardly do.

Celina to me is just
this beacon of, like,

someone who's worked hard.

She's the kind of person
that doesn't get rewarded

in the way that she deserves.

Okey-dokey.

Isn't it cool
just to see the fans

that they're not part
of the structure

but we source them to match?

-But they actually look like--
-[Mandy]
They match the pergola

so fantastically.

It's so seamless.

And this as far
as it's gonna be

when it's blistering hot

because your outdoor
air-conditioning.

I'm so glad
we finally have some sunshine

after all that rain too.

Do you wanna start throwing
the runner down and...

-Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
-[Jonathan] the pillows
and the chairs,

-and stuff like that?
-[Mandy] Sure.

Mandy's very confident.

She knows exactly what's
gonna be Celina's feel.

I'm gonna call you now
for design advices.

[Mandy] No, no, no, please.

You know what?

Now that I'm looking at it

I think this might be better

-as a throw on the sofa.
-Yeah?

They host friends
and other family members.

I'll grab some candlesticks
and some flowers.

Yeah. Some plates.
I think it's gonna look great.

I feel like giving them
a really good lounge area,

giving them, like,
a proper seating area.

I have never designed
with a smoker before

-so this is, kind of, cool.
-[Jonathan] Love the smoker.

[Mandy]
I feel like this is the gem,

this is where your eye goes
when you look at
this outdoor kitchen.

There's no better feeling

than being in this position
and being able to give back

to someone
who truly deserves it

and who's so
exceedingly grateful.

I'm grateful.

-Hey, Drew.
-[Drew] Yo.

You wanna hit the switch
over there?

-Are you ready?
-[Drew] Yeah.

-Boom. Oh, there we go.
-[Drew] Yes.

I can't believe we got this
all done in three weeks.

I can't believe it's tomorrow

-that she's coming back.
-[Mandy] I can't believe
it's tomorrow.

I'll go pick her up
and drive her over here.

-Yeah.
-[Jonathan] Okay.

For the big reveal.

You drive her over,
we'll do any last judging

that needs to happen,
but I think the thing

she'll be most impress with,
she'll say to you,

"How did you get this done?
It rained the entire time."

-The entire time.
-[Drew] Yeah.

-And then we'll complain...
-And then we'll admit--

-that you forced us.
-Yeah. Exactly.

[upbeat music playing]

[Mandy] How are you feeling?

-Very nervous.
-What are you nervous about?

I just opened an--

You didn't peek
at the backyard, did you?

No, honestly, not at all.

-[Mandy]
You haven't seen anything?
-No, I swear.

So what did you do?

I was out there
with the brothers,

like, getting my hands dirty,

like, doing all the work.

How do you handle, like,

the heavy-duty machines
that... You know,

the equipment, like,
the constructions they use?

-Yeah.
-How do you--

I mean, I got my hands on some
real heavy-duty equipments,

working on this
particular project.

I got on a ladder in the rain.

I was on your roof
tearing up shingles.

-You went on the roof?
-Yeah.

Mandy.

[Mandy] Home sweet home.

-Let's do it, Celina.
-Okay.

-Hello.
-How you doing?

[Celina] Hello.

[Jonathan] Come on down,

will you say on a scale
of one to ten,

excited or nervous?

-Both, a little bit of both.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.

-Good to see you.
-[Mandy] We're reframing it
as just excitement.

-Just excited. Okay. Good.
-[Drew] Yeah.

Well, we're very excited.

Mandy's been here,
working her butt off.

I mean, of course, the day
we are revealing this to you,

-it's a sunny day.
-Beautiful.

-Have you peeked at all?
-[Celina] No.

-When I make a promise--
-You pinkie promise?

-Yes. Yes.
-[Drew] All right. All right.

Well, if you
haven't seen anything...

[Celina] No, I swear.

then this is gonna be
a real surprise.

Cover her eyes.

-No peeking.
-[Drew] Yeah. No peeking.

-Come on back.
-[Jonathan]
This is a pinkie promise.

-No peeking.
-Okay. No peeking.

It's so challenging

to just still down

everything Celina
means to me,

everything she means
to my family, to my children.

Always think about others

before you think
about yourself, Celina.

-Oh.
-And I love that for once,

this is about you.

Deep breath.

Okay.

Open your eyes.

[laughs] My goodness.

[Jonathan laughs]

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan]
Keep those eyes closed.

Keep them closed.

Deep breath.

Okay.

Open your eyes.

[laughs] My goodness.

[Jonathan laughs]

Everywhere you look is new.

[Celina laughs]

Oh, my goodness.

It is gorgeous.

I can't believe that.

It's like I'm in
a different house.

It's clean!

My goodness.

[laughter]

My brain was spinning.

This is my house?

This is a good sign.

It's incredible
to see all the stuff

that I never imagine
that I can have.

[upbeat music playing]

[Jonathan] How cool is this?

[Celina] When it's cold
for Christmas,

we use charcoal and flame it

and have it like heating,
just like--

[Jonathan] Don't worry
if it gets cold now.

You can heat it up?

It's nice and toasty.

This is so cool, guys.

And you have this
beautiful seating area here.

Unfortunately, we didn't have
space for the hammock, Cece.

I think we replaced it
with something better.

[Celina] It's just like
I can't imagine, you know,

like, you guys can do
something like that,

like, the thing here.

-The air conditioning unit?
-Yes.

So it's tucked around
the side over here now.

[Mandy]
I think that was the thing

she was most excited about.

Definitely,
it's like a big change.

You know, starting
from, like, the Pergola.

I think the pergola
is my favorite feature.

[laughs]

[Mandy] You have beautiful
track lighting here.

You have fans
so you'll be nice and cool

when you're sitting outside.

[Jonathan] You just had
a solid cover here.

It would keep the inside
super dark day and night.

That's why it was so great
to have a louver system here

because you crack the louver,
and then all of a sudden,

it lets a lot
of natural light inside.

Do you want me to show you
what it's like

-when we close this
completely?
-Yes.

-Yeah.
-That's all the way open,

and now closes fully.

It actually interlinks
with the other louvers

so that no rain
gets in at all.

-Boom.
-Holy.

[Jonathan] And then same
on this side over here,

-so all of a sudden, it'll go.
-Oh, my God.

Look at that. That's a lot
of light coming in right now.

-Oh.
-So much light.

Until it completely closes.

-This is insane, Mandy.
-Right?

It's incredible to have all
the luxury not just for me,

for the whole family.

You mentioned Carlos
has a little speaker

he'll bring out here
to bring music.

-But I know
you're a musical family.
-Yes.

[Drew] So we thought
why have one little speaker

when you could have two
good-sized speakers?

Check this out.
Your own record player.

And we were trying to think
of something you could do

that would be stylish.

Obviously, you've got
the TV too, which is great.

You could watch TV out here.

But the music is so important

and this system is loud.

Everything
is all custom-made.

This is meant to be outside.

It's just...
It's meant to look like

an indoor piece of furniture.

Again, this came
from Mandy too

because when she said
how much you guys love music

and that would be
great out here.

Thank you.

Every time, you amaze me

and surprise me
with all the love that you...

-[Mandy] Aw.
-show me.

No one deserves this
more than Celina.

No one gives more
of her heart,

her soul, her time,
her energy, her love,

to be able to do this
for her just...

It feels like
the least I can do

to repay you for everything
that you give to us.

This is a lot.

-Thank you.
-And now I love seeing

that it's not just Celina
choking back the tears.

-Oh, yeah.
-[Jonathan]
You're trying so hard

-not to cry right now.
-Yeah, I mean...

I can count on you
for absolutely everything

and I probably can only
say that about my husband.

Her generosity is unbelievable
to share with everybody.

[Drew] Will you ever use
your indoor kitchen again

now that you have this...

-[Celina]
No more cooking inside.
-[Mandy] Yeah.

This is something else,
this is unbelievable.

[Mandy] Look at that cooker
for Carlos.

And the grill.

You have a fridge,
you have an ice maker.

Carlos is gonna faint.

Because sometimes it's not
just about what you want.

-It's what about
Carlos wants too.
-Oh, yes.

Oh.

There's rotisserie.

You got all the grilling.

She knows that
I love kitchens...

-Yes.
-And I can never imagine

that I was gonna have it
in the back.

[Mandy] Look at the floor too,
all one level.

[Celina] This is amazing.

[Drew] We have to re-pour
the entire patio.

You'll notice every
other square we etched it.

We cladded the cinder block
wall back there,

so I feel like
it makes the trees pop.

[Celina] It's incredible.

I'm not even, you know,

imagine this something so ugly

can become something
so beautiful.

This beautiful
teak table extends

so you can have more people
come, eat, celebrate.

That is weatherproof.
It's meant to be outdoor.

[Celina] Oh, my goodness.

That's amazing.

[Mandy laughing]

I never imagined that,
and it's beautiful.

So how do you feel?

Excited and happy, you know,

like really, really, happy.

I think one thing
that will make you happier

is that we bring
a little surprise.

Just hang here for a second.

[Celina]
Like a dream come true.

And this beyond my expectation
that I can ever have.

[Drew] Knock, knock.

[Jonathan] Oh, well.

[Drew]
Let the party get started.

[laughs]

-Oh, my God.
-[Andrea] Oh, look at that.

[Celina] Carlos.

Oh, my God.

[Mandy] Go, go, go.

-Go over.
-[Andrea] Oh, my God.

[Carlos] Thank you, guys.

-[Mandy] Of course.
-Thank you.

I could already see
the wheels turning

in Carlos's brain like,

"What am I
gonna cook here first?

When can I fire
this baby up?"

And I could see Andrea
thinking about like,

"Hmm, what party
is coming through here?"

Like, everybody
was already just,

like, putting themselves
back there,

figuring out
how they're gonna spend,

like, their first moment
as a family.

It's not just my dream.

-It's the whole family.
-Exactly.

-It's the whole
family's dream.
-[Celina] The whole family.

-Yes.
-[Mandy] Yeah.

Celina, are you crying again?

[laughs]

-[Jonathan] What is--
-I really have no words

to actually express
my feelings and thank you.

The space is so cool, guys.

Drew, hit the music.

Someone has to teach me
how to dance.

-All right.
-Okay.

Teach me a little something,
what do we do?

Elbows up or elbows down?

-[indistinct]
-Yeah. Okay.

You guys, you got this too.

I know. You already
have the natural...

-It's all in the hip, right?
-Yes.

[Carlos laughing]

[Mandy] I'll make the drinks.

No, no, no, no.

You don't wanna
see me dance, sir.

[Drew] I just make...

I'll make you
look really good.

[Jonathan] Make a few drinks.

Make them strong.

[upbeat music playing]
