It was wild! I'm glad Antonio won...HGTV needed a breath of fresh air.

Torie did nothing with regard to the landscaping except follow Lonnie around...Lonnie should have gotten some big impact plantings, but at least she tried.

Then she changed it to $5K and Antonio was just trying to clarify because he was calculating up the cost of materials for the fencing. In the final analysis, however, Dan said straight out he had $5K for a pergola...he made that very clear.
