In this episode, Joe leads the Trading Spaces team to his alma mater, Yale University, in New Haven, Connecticut. Along with designers Hildi Santo-Thomas and Frank Bielec, Joe matches wits with two other Ivy League graduates and doctors as they trade in their pens and pencils for paint brushes and power tools. Frank and green team mom, Amy, use some surgical precision to hand paint a desk. Meanwhile, carpenter Carter Oosterhouse designs and constructs an entertainment center meant to reposition furniture for Hildi's design. Can Frank plan the perfect ""family but kid"" room? And, can Hildi get her not-quite-white walls painted in time and within budget? Tune in to find out!
