Heavy/HGTV/YouTube Rock the Block season 5 cast

Last week’s episode of HGTV’s “Rock the Block” ended in a twist, as host Ty Pennington revealed that despite every past season of the series heading into the finale after the fifth week of competition, season 5’s redemption season would be doing things differently.

Pennington had the four teams meet him at a warehouse to begin a final round of competition, a 48-hour Surprise Bedroom Redemption challenge, in which the four teams would be judging one another’s finished spaces. As it stands, Bryan and Sarah Baeumler (“Battle on the Beach”) are tied with Page Turner and Mitch Glew (“Fix My Flip”) at two weekly wins apiece, while Keith Bynum and Evan Thomas (“Bargain Block”) are tied with Lyndsay Lamb and Leslie Davis (“Unsellable Houses”) with one win each.

Read ahead for a live recap of episode 6, along with the winners of the Surprise Bedroom challenge.

‘Rock the Block’ Season 5 Episode 6 Live Recap

The episode opened with Pennington surprising the teams with this week’s challenge. In just 48 hours, each team is being tasked with designing, building, and decorating a multipurpose bedroom suite on their second floor. The goal is for the bedrooms to double as another room too, from one of five options. At the end of the challenge, the teams would tour one another’s spaces and choose the winners amongst themselves.

Before being given a 15-minute shopping period in a furniture and design warehouse, the teams got to meet MLB player and World Series Champ Jimmy Rollins, who challenged the teams to a baseball pitching competition to earn a 2-minute advantage on their shopping spree. Page won the head start for herself and Mitch.

After the shopping spree, the teams headed back to the block to start designing their extra bedrooms.
