Stephanye: Oh, this is absolutely awesome! Tava: Do you love it?
Tava: Now you have a sewing room that functions as an office and is a fabulous place for you to hang out.
David: (regarding James) I can't wait to give that guy a hug.
Tava: David and Stephanye, I want you to think back to your old basement, the black hole.
David: I'm gonna say goodbye to my putter. Tava: He's gonna hug the putter.
Stephanye: I sold my bike! Ya'ay! I'm gonna keep my dress!
Peter: Mildew and rats' nests.
David: I've told you this game is fixed. It's fixed. The fix is in.
David: This golf club came from grandfather. It's not going anywhere.
Tava: Talk to me, my children. Come to the Sell pile.
Peter: As soon as I told you to tell me the strongest story, the best memory, you became so animated.
Stephanye: This board represents the time that my parents took to take care of us.
Stephanye: I'd like to keep my wedding gown. Peter: Here. Drop it in.
Peter: If you haven't used this fabric in twenty years, it's highly unlikely you're gonna use it.
David: (to Stephanye) We're gonna sell your bike and I'm gonna buy you a new one.
James: It's a one-man show sometimes.
Peter: So, James? From sewing disaster James: to sewing heaven.
Tava: I love that we're starting with a "Sell."
Stephanye: I never realized I had so much stuff in two rooms. It's unbelievable.
Tava: There are a lot of attempts at organization, there's just all of the other stuff.
Tava: We are giving Stephanye and Davids' home the white-glove treatment.
David: Welcome to the black hole. This is the place where stuff goes in but it never seems to come out.
This episode includes something that hasn't been seen for a long time: an assignment for the homeowners to do at the hotel. Peter has them go through the stuff that they need to ship to other family members and then the Clean Sweep team gets it packaged and shipped.
Both rooms were finished under the mythical $1000 budget. The sewing room was $725 and the basement came in at $905. The total for the two was only $1630.
Clean Sweep on the Street: Peter talks with a straight A elementary school student, Jessica, about how to organize homework. She recommends setting up folders for each subject and sticking to them.
The chosen yard sale prizes in this episode were a wedding dress for Stephanye and a golf club from his Grandfather for David. Stephanye sold $185.70, while David only made $86.35, so Stephanye got to keep the wedding dress.
Tava: I'm just gonna pass the sort hat. Peter: The sorting hat. Stephanye: The sorting hat, ya'ay! This is a reference to the Sorting Hat in the Harry Potter book series that sings a song and then is placed on the heads of first-year students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry to sort them into one of four houses: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin.
