SPOUSE VS. HOUSE (SEASON 1) #6 - THE BRACHES
In the Brache home opinionated wife Andrea calls the shots and football coach and husband "Nacho," a self-proclaimed meathead, follows her lead. So it's no surprise that design-obsessed Andrea is devastated when she hears her husband is in charge of their $25,000 kitchen, living room, and master bath renovation, and she'll have no say in anything he does. Nacho knows he's in over his head: he knows nothing about design, construction, or remodeling. Worse, he knows that his wife has a very clear vision of what she'd like to see in the home and he better deliver, or else.
