"There's some controversy from House 4, they're upset with you about something you did..." Scotty asked the girls.

If you recall, the teams were originally told no due to access requirement, but Sonny being the tradie he is, found a workaround.

This workaround was passed on by the "chippy on site" said the girls, and so, the 'copycat scandal' began.

"We don't want bad blood between anyone on The Block," said Can. "If we were to win the caravan we would absolutely give it to them knowing how much work they've put in..."

That's when Scotty interrupted.

"Whoa, whoa. What are you talking about? It's a competition," he reminded them. "I would rethink giving up the caravan if you want it."

To which Can replied: "You can't put a price on integrity."

"We're there to make a cool bathhouse, the fact it's been tainted with questioning our integrity is disgusting," she said.

Over at Sonny and Alicia's house, Scotty had the same question: "The Hepburn Spa challenge... what's going on?"
