Maria Lopez and Richard Scarry are the managers of Out of the Closet --- a thrift-store that raises money for the AIDS Healthcare Foundation. They're dedicated workers, but the way things are set up now is hampering the effectiveness of their business. Their receiving room is overflowing with clothing, old lamps, a covered picnic table, toys and more. The setup is so bad that people have been breaking in and dumpster-diving. Meanwhile, the sorting area is a defeating space loaded with boxes, old coathangers and various clutter that can only be described as "bric-a-brac." Peter Walsh comes in to help Maria and Richard get a system together to deal with all the donations. He shows them how an efficient system can benefit both them and their volunteers. Angelo Surmelis does the redesign of the areas. The receiving room receives a foldout desk with hidden space for storage, covered doors and siding, storage cabinets and drawers. It's also set up for locking to prevent theft. The storage room contains sorting tables, lockers, clothes hangers racks, a storage cabinet with categorized bins and "groovy" lighting.moreless

      • In this episode, Richard and Maria competed in the yard sale for one special prize from the Clean Sweep team. Richard sold $86.25 worth of stuff, as opposed to Maria's $51.10 and received the special prize --- an organizational basket. Maria, however, also received a prize --- a $100 donation to Out of the Closet in her name from the Clean Sweep team.

      • Clean Sweep on the Street: Peter talks with a little girl who's going on a plane trip by herself. He compliments her on her organizational skills and talks about how being organized helps a trip to go faster.

      • There was an unusual format for the initial sort in this episode. The initial pile was designated the Sell pile and items essential to the running of the thrift store were moved to the Keep pile. Trash, was of course, put in Toss. The items left in the Sell pile were sorted into various labeled groups during the main sort.
