While Sherri realizes her dream of being a bed & breakfast innkeeper in historic St. Augustine, she and husband Marshall endure the nightmare that is their living quarters. While the rest of their Inn is a veritable comfort zone, filled with quaint period furniture, their private space is just one big clutter. Designer John Bruce and the While You Were Out team have one aim: to transform the room into a warm, modern living room inspired by the work of the ever-popular mid-century designers Charles and Ray Eames.
From the very beginning, the team encounters a problem with for one of John's key elements: a wall in which they want to build Sherri's television is made of concrete and a new game plan has got to be devised right then and there. To complicate things further, Evan discovers that Marshall is harboring suspicions that he may be on While You Were Out. The odds seem to be stacked against the team, but who else can overcome such obstacles in just 48 hours? The While You Were Out team, that's who!
