Throughout the episode, we get a glimpse into the contestants' design processes as they scour flea markets and thrift stores for inspiration and materials. We see them using everything from paint and fabric to power tools and welding equipment as they work on transforming their items into something completely new.
As the deadline approaches, tensions rise and the contestants scramble to finish their projects. The dealers visit each team to offer feedback on their progress, offering advice and critiquing their designs. The pressure is on as the teams work to make any final adjustments and present their finished pieces to the judges.
The final reveal takes place in a bustling flea market, where the contestants set up shop to showcase their transformed items. The dealers make one last round of evaluations before announcing the winner of the $5,000 prize.
In the end, one team emerges victorious, having impressed their dealer with a stunning transformation that perfectly captures their style and vision. The other teams leave empty-handed but proud of the work they've accomplished and the skills they've honed throughout the competition.
