The WYWO team have been invited into some pretty unusual spaces in their time, but never before have they had a call to remodel a bar!

Actually, "Moneypenny's" on Hilton Head Island is a lot more than just a bar: it's a popular hang out for the locals with the feel of a slightly scruffy but friendly club; it's owned by sci-fi fanatic, David Faber. Adorning the walls are numerous pieces of Star Trek memorabilia with pride of place going to a picture of David with his hero, William Shatner. Scott, David's younger brother, put the call into WYWO. He's endlessly appreciative of David's help and support in recent years and wants designer Chayse Dacoda and the team to do something special for his brother. Of course, there's absolutely no way for Chayse to go other than the Sci-fi route — it's a given — so welcome to "Meet Me in the Milky Way."

Chayse has some terrific ideas: there's lots of funky lighting, a fabulous mirror and plexi-glass treatment for the bar itself, plus a whole new idea for displaying the most precious of David's memorabilia. Needless to say, it wasn't all that difficult to get David away from home and work. His best friend Tommy simply suggested they go to visit the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas — the perfect getaway for a committed Trekkie!

When David returns, there's a whole raft of surprises awaiting him. He thinks his brother Scott's in California, his parents are in Atlanta and his other brother Mark is in Tampa. Little does he know there's a very special family gathering for the Fabers in his honor, not to mention the WYWO family, and an entirely new look to his beloved bar!
