Previously, on Ice...

[CAM]: I want the messag
to be very f*cking loud

and crystal-f*cking-clear.

[ALEXI]: The men responsible will pay.

My dad and Uncle Freddy

brought back this ginormous uncut diamond

from South America.

- So, can you cut it?
- Yes, I can, Jake.

I'd hate to have Mr. Green

find out what you're really doing to him.

I could get the same message to Freddy

about his sober coach.

Emily needs a necklace

for the A.M.A.'s red carpet on Saturday.

That's not right.

I have a proposal...

you take this piece,
and you present it as your own.

[GREEN HELMET]:
I'm here for the diamonds.

[CAM]: I've been lookin'

to k*ll somebody all f*ckin' day.

Yeah, as long as I'm standing,

[JAKE]: Cam?

[♪♪♪]

What the hell are you doing here?

I brought Willow home.

What?

Where is she?

I hid her in the bushes. She's safe.

Ava, go get Willow.

Go out the back.

Cam? What the f*ck is going on?

[DIMITRI]: You are Cam?

Who the f*ck are you?

Put down your g*n.

I said put down your f*cking g*n!

Now kick it over, old man.

Now!

Now I ask question.

Are you Cam?

Yeah, I'm f*cking Cam.

[HELMET THUDS]

Then you must know...

you k*lled my brother.

What? The shithead in there?

He ain't f*ckin' dead,

so the best thing you can do

is get him

and get the f*ck out of here,

before we really get pissed off.

My brother was in club.

What club?

You shoved message down his throat.

What the f*ck are you talking...?

Are you talking about
Alexi's strip joint?

Alexi?

Yeah, I just told 'em, you know,

to break some glass, and make some...

[DIMITRI]: You k*lled him!

[CAM]: Shove it up your ass.

He has family.

And you k*lled him.

Okay. Okay. Let's do something here.

Let's, uh, let's make a deal.

You want to make deal?

You want to make deal, like money?

[sh*ts BLASTING]

[CRIES OUT]

f*ck you.

Jesus! f*ck.

No, f*ck you.

You took your f*ckin' time.

Yeah, well, I was enjoying the show.

Yeah, well, I didn't know

whether to shine a light up my ass.

You're welcome, Cam.

Now what's with the message?

Huh?

Did you do it, Jakey?

Did I do what?

What the f*ck are you talking about?

[SHELL CLATTERS]

Did you k*ll my f*cking Malcolm?

Cam...

I would never...

And I'm f*cking sorry.

[SIRENS WAILING]

[SIRENS CONTINUE WAILING]

Police!

Hands where I can see 'em!

On your knees! Hands on your head!

Drop the w*apon!

I know the drill.

[OFFICER]: On your knees.
Hands on your head.

[JAKE]: We're diamond dealers.

We have licenses
for these firearms, all right?

These men tried to rob us.

[BLEATING]

[AID WORKER]: It's not
just the children anymore,

or the injuries from the machinery.

It's the chemicals.

Arsenic,

mercury, lead...

even cyanide.

There are few regulations...

but none are enforced.

And everything that's used in the mine

flows downstream?

Straight into the water supply.

The villagers are dying...

painfully.

[GOATS BLEATING]

Her feet were so bad, we had to amputate.

This is all from the acid.

My God.

God doesn't seem to be listening.

I know.

Help is coming, little one.

[♪♪♪]

God doesn't hear their cries, but I do.

I wish I could say that is enough.

Here is a check for , U.S. dollars.

I want you to use it
to the best advantage.

It's in your name.

I don't know what to say.

Say that you'll do good with it.

I will send more next week.

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

This is a medical facility.

[LADY RAH]: N'Koulou.

Rahwia!

My friend!

Oh!

[BOTH LAUGHING]

My friend.

It's so good to see you.

You see, years have gone by,

and not much has changed.

It will, N'Koulou.

It will.

Come.

I've got lots to tell you.

And quite a few things to show you.

Good.

Yeah, it's me.

I'm at a medical facility.

It's about kilometers from Cafunfo.

A medical facility?

At first, she was only with the doctor.

But now?

Now there's a rebel soldier with her.

A rebel?

What the hell is she up to?

What do you want me to do, sir?

I will, sir.

[♪♪♪]

Hey, so I need your help again.

Good thing you're cute.

Thanks. So, uh...

Some guys tried to rob Ava's house.

Guys on motorcycles, and machine g*ns...

It was crazy.

Jesus.

Yeah, I mean, we're all fine,

but sh*ts were fired.

By who?

Mostly, our side,
but it was self-defense,

and we're licensed, so...

all good, I guess.

Legally, at least.

So what can I help you with?

Well, I took a picture of a guy,

and I was hoping
you could help get him I.D.'d.

Shouldn't you just leave
that for the police?

I'm just trying to help.

Okay, uh, send it over,
and I'll see what I can do.

Okay. Thank you.

Mm. I know that he's Russian,

so I don't know if
there's any address attached

to, like, uh, immigration,
or visa, or anything like that.

I'll try.

Okay.

And the photo's pretty graphic.

Jake, I'm a criminal defense
attorney, okay?

Not a preschool teacher.

Right. Thanks.

Desi...

what does it mean

if a guy tells you he was involved

in a sh**ting

and all you can think about is,

"What the f*ck were you doing
at your ex-wife's house?"

Oh, no.

Yeah...

that's what I thought.

[CELL PHONE CHIMES]

[SIGHS HEAVILY]

[PHONE LINE RINGING]

Tell me you got something.

[TESSA]: The Greens' house was att*cked.

Who did it?

That's why I'm calling.

Jake sent me a photo of one of the guys.

I was hoping maybe you could
run it through your NCIS feed?

I'm on my way out.

Be my guest.

Meaning?

Meaning come use my system.

Is there a password?

Text me when you get here.
I'll log you on remotely.

You don't trust me?

No f*ckin' way.

Bitch.

Bitch.

We're going to a hotel.

Yeah, I know. That's a good idea.

I don't need to go to a hotel.

The house is a crime scene.

Dad?

Non-negotiable. Come on.

Give me a call later?

Yeah. Oh, hey. Um... Where are they?

What?

The safe was empty.

Oh, they're in my car.

I had a showing yesterday,

and I didn't have
a chance to take them out.

All right.

- All right.
- Be safe.

I will.

We go. Let's go!

[TRUCK STARTS]

Oh, sh*t. Freddy?

I forgot that you were even here.

What's happening?

Um, well, Alexi tried to rob us.

What?

I mean, he's supposed to be
protecting us, but he's not,

but it's a long story.

Now, I need you to finish that stone.

I mean, that conference lady,

she is on my ass right now.

[♪♪♪]

It's done.

Oh, my God.

And this is gonna pass as the Anastasia?

Oh, yeah. It's perfect.

It's f*cking beautiful, Freddy.

Yeah.

You did it.

No, man. We did it.

Right.

Right.

Where are you going?

I'm gonna go get us a spot at the expo.

Good job.

[CAR DOOR SHUTS]

[ENGINE TURNS OVER]

You okay, boss?

Yeah, I'm good.

Need us to hit back?

No.

[EXHALES DEEPLY] Ah...

I told you to leave a message with Alexi.

What did you do?

What do you mean? I left a message.

Well, how?

I f*ckin' ball-batted a guy

and shoved a note in his teeth.

I told you just to break some glass.

Yeah. Yeah, I did that, too.

Enlighten me here.

What do you think would happen

if you was to take down a guy
from another crew

without telling me?

sh*t.

Yeah. They come for me.

Boss, I didn't think.

Oh!

[BODY THUDS]

Get rid of this piece of sh*t.

Hey...

you got one job.

Find the f*ck who k*lled my son.

Now, we know it wasn't Jake Green,

so, uh, put the word out on the street.

Anyone who comes forward
with the right information

of who did it...

I shall fill their pockets with money.

They will be richer
than they've ever dreamt.

All right, boss.

Ahh...

[BACKGROUND CHATTER, INDISTINCT]

[GIRL WINCES SHARPLY]

[SUCKS AIR, GASPS]

[YOUNG N'KOULOU]: He can't
keep doing this to us.

I will fight back. I will find a way.

No.

But you did nothing wrong.

Oh, that's not fair.

I will go talk to him now.

No!

Stay here with me. Please!

You go to him, and you're dead.

Do you really want that?

Have faith. Our time will come.

[♪♪♪]

There's a story here for sure.

A big one.

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

Hey, JJ.

Good to see you.

Been a while.

[LAUGHS]

Hey. You're running short?

No, I'm good, man.

Ahh.

You don't look good.

Don't look good.

So... I'm trying to find Angel, actually.

- Angel?
- Angel, yeah.

Avi's Angel?

Yeah.

I was hanging with her last night and...

No sh*t?

You? Bitch f*cking hates you, man.

Hey.

What's this?

Keep it. Pay me later.

You're good for it.

Thanks. Do me a favor,

Jake Green.

Ramona Hathaway.

Can I assume by that grin
you have something for me?

$ ,

for your entry fee.

We usually receive a cashiers' checks.

Right. Well, you gave me a deadline.

I didn't really have time
for a bank trip.

I will email you a receipt.

There was...

a second request.

Oh, my God.

It's really the Anastasia.

Really is.

It's pretty nuts,
seeing that in person, huh?

That's funny.

I've never actually seen it,
but I'd recognize it anywhere.

My dad told me that story...

so many times.

The King, the cutter, the daughter...

[BOTH, OVERLAPPING]: The curse.

- Right.
- I'm familiar.

And yet, he failed to tell me
that he had the diamond.

It's quite the gift to leave behind.

Yeah, my dad loved giving gifts,

and this was his last one, so...

Well, you are gonna make
a huge splash at the expo.

Your dad'll be proud.

You're gonna do very well, Jake.

Very, very well.

See you in South Africa.

Yes, you will.

[♪♪♪]

Okay.

This one's for you.

We'll be here for a while,

so feel free to spread out.

Willow, honey?

I have to go.

Um, are you sure it's okay?

I'll only be gone a couple of hours.

[PHONE KEYS CLICKING]

[KNOCKING]

Will!

Uh, would you like a permission slip?

No. I just... I wanna make sure...

I'm fine. Go.

Okay.

I'm sorry you can't come.

Call me if you need anything.

[SIGHING]

[LAUGHS]

[BEEP]

[PHONE LINE RINGING]

[JAKE]: Hey.

Hey. So, I got something on your guy.

Oh, yeah?

Dimitri Lukin.

He's here on a visa from Minsk.

Is there, like,
a local address or something?

There's an address.

I could text it to you,

but I don't want you
doing anything stupid.

He's already dead,

so I was just gonna
pass it along to the cops.

Um, yeah, I got my own sh*t
to deal with, so.

Something bigger than a guy
sh**ting up your house?

He did it. Freddy.

He just cut the biggest
f*cking rock I've ever seen.

It's gonna change everything.

It's gonna be worth millions.

Hundreds of millions.

I didn't know diamonds
could be worth that much.

They sure can.

Now I just have to get
Freddy and I to South Africa.

Why South Africa?

Super Bowl of diamond expos is happening.

Anyone with enough money
to pay for the Anastasia

is gonna be there,

and we have a private
auction room to do it in,

so just got to get us halfway
across the world to do it,

but we'll get there somehow.

Well, if it's a... if it's
a money thing, I can help.

What? No. No. That's not what I'm saying.

It's what I'm saying.

Tessa, no.

I'm not gonna take your money.

You're about to be
a big-sh*t millionaire, right?

So, you'll pay me back.

With interest?

If that's what it takes
to get you to say yes...

That would help us out a lot.

Okay, I'll email my travel agent.

You're the f*ckin' best.

Hey, uh...

before you go, could we, uh,

could we talk about something?

Of course. What?

Face-to-face.

Yeah. Sure.

I'll come by later.

Okay.

Thanks.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

Well, you're back in the office,

so you better have something good.

It's not about Malcolm, boss. Um...

You remember that Aaron guy?

My runner?

Well, I should do.

The f*ck ain't checked in for two days.

Yeah, he... he's dead.

No sh*t?

The guys, uh, they just found his head.

Lovely.

Yeah. Uh... they found it
alongside another head.

Two heads?

Yeah. Uh... together.

One of 'em is Aaron's...

Yeah, I get that.

Whose is the other one?

One of Lady Rah's guys.

Rah's guys?

What the f*ck's he doing with them?

[♪♪♪]

[EMILY]: Hey.

Look at all the ridiculous prep
that goes into being me.

Men have it much easier, don't they?

Wouldn't that be nice?

Throw on a tux, have a beer,
wait for my ride.

So... I brought options.

[EMILY GASPS]

Oh, Ava...

That's the one.

There's my baby.

I thought you'd like it.

[CARLY]: Is your security outside?

Excuse me?

Security. For the jewelry.

Oh, I, um...

I was under the impression

that you would be taking care of that.

That's not how it works.

What's the problem?

Oh, nothing. I just need to
sort out a security detail,

that's all.

Why don't you keep an eye on it?

Prefer you over the usual rent-a-cop

who stares at my ass all night.

Well, I don't, um...

[LAUGHS] I'm not exactly
dressed for an award show.

If only I had a bunch
of dresses laying around...

[♪♪♪]

What do you mean, she's not in?

What the f*ck she doing in Cape Town?

No, I'm sorry, we're closed.

She's real insistent, boss.

Right.

All right. Fine. Fine.

[GRUMBLES]: Fine.

[TOSSES PHONE DOWN]

Look, I've already parked.

I, uh, I just want to buy
some earrings for myself.

karats, ideally.

Well, I'm sorry.

I... I'm not usually the retail guy.

That's okay. Um...

Do you have anything like these?

Yeah.

I can get 'em.

You have it?

No, um, but it'd take me
a couple of days.

Okay. Great. Well, I'll come back.

Thank you.

[♪♪♪]

[FREDDY]: I'm sick

of dragging this family
through this sh*t.

[CAM]: What happened, Freddy?
What happened?

Whose blood is that, Freddy?

Can you just let me breathe
for a f*cking second?

[JAKE]: So it's my fault
that you're a f*cking drunk?

A f*cking cokehead?

You think the family just
took care of itself?

I took care of it!


I sacrificed everything!

[JAKE]: ...But the sh*t you've
put our f*cking family through

the past ten years...

You need to get the f*ck
out of the house.

Get your sh*t. Both of you.

- Ava, please!
- No.

[FREDDY]: Would you just listen
to me, please? I'm sorry!

[KNOCKING]

What are you doing?

- I'm not coming in?
- What? You kidding?

of this now-viral video

Submitted by a concerned group

who wants the world to know

there's no such thing

Now, we need to tell you

[ROMANTIC INSTRUMENTAL PLAYS]

[THEME BECOMES DISCORDANT AND UNSETTLING]

[♪♪♪]

As of ,

most people thought
the blood-diamond controversy

had been put to rest,

but this video
seems to cast serious doubt

into the process of securing
a so-called clean diamond,

and whether or not it's even possible.

Earlier today,
Hollywood's own Emily Duran

wore a necklace

that has since been verified
to contain blood diamonds

at the A.M.A.'s.

We've reached out to Miss Duran

and the woman who supplied the jewelry...

Hard to believe, from where we started,

we ended up here.

We did it.

Oh.

She's a big fan of yours, by the way.

You should bring her

Are you with her?

Let me help you.

Stay the f*ck away from me!

[SIGHING DEEPLY]

Jesus Christ.

Um...

What's up?

Nothing. It's... It's cool.

Um...

[SHAKY BREATH, WORDS CATCH]

Act... I, uh...

I thought you were into this?

I am.

It's just... I haven't...

[STAMMERING]

...Done this before.

I can tell.

Awesome.

It's not a bad thing.

Look... Will.

If you don't want to do this,

that's totally cool.

I can wait until you're ready.

[MOTORCYCLE RUMBLING IN DISTANCE]

[MOTORCYCLE APPROACHING]

[♪♪♪♪]

[BRAXTON]: sh*t!

My uncle's home.

This is his house.

Look. You gotta go.

[ENGINE SHUTS OFF]

[♪♪♪]

Who the hell is that?

[ALEXI CHUCKLES]

Look at my nephew, all grown up.

Wait a minute. Is that...?

[JAKE]: You never showed me
this place, assh*le.

[ALEXI]: We all have secrets, Jakey.

[JAKE]: You made a big mistake, Alexi.

Not my first.

But it will be your last.

[WILLOW]: Dad?

Willow?

Dad, this is Braxton. He's...

Get behind me.

Now!

[BRAXTON]: Will, I'm sorry.

Shut the f*ck up.

Yeah, you robbed the wrong family, Alexi.

No, Dad, please don't.

[cr*ck]

[THUD]

Let's go.

Let's go.

[JAKE]: Does he know
where you're staying?

What?

That boy in there, whatever his name is.

Braxton.

Does he know about the hotel?

No... He wouldn't...

Does he know?

[SIGHS] He picked me up there.

g*dd*mn it. Get in the car.

[ENGINE STARTS]

[♪♪♪]

Who are you?

I'm gonna go with "f*ck you".

[CHUCKLES] Oh, ho, ho.

[TESSA CRIES OUT]

Why were you asking about stolen stones?

Those earrings...

you know they were stolen, right?

How do you know?

'Cause I f*cking stole 'em.

You'll take that to your grave.

Wait.

Look. I've had a f*cking long day,

but it's okay,

'cause you're gonna tell me
everything I need to know.

Even if it takes all night.

[♪♪♪]

[TV REPORTER]: Apparently,
there's no real way

to tell a blood diamond from any other.

It's all a scam of sorts,

to make you feel like

you know where your diamonds
are coming from.

Now, this Ava Green

is at the center
of a pretty heavy scandal.

[TV REPORTER # ]: Ava Green is alleged

to have supplied blood diamonds
to actress Emily Duran,

as seen earlier today on the red...

Ava?

- We gotta go.
- Is everything okay?

I don't have time to explain. Just...

- What happened?
- Willow's already in the car.

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

[FREDDY]: It's Freddy.
I'm not answering my phone,

so I must be doing something
better than...

f*cking Freddy.

What?

Okay, the guys who hit the house,

they were the same ones

who went after Willow's
necklace at school.

It's all my fault.

Stop.

You didn't do anything wrong, Willow.

Yeah, except for invite
a criminal over to our house

and then go hang out at his house.

- Whose house?
- f*cking Braxton's.

Would somebody please
tell me what is going on?

Alexi is Braxton's uncle.

Yeah, and he sent the kid in there

to see what you had, I guess.

I don't know.

Oh, honey. I'm sorry.

Look, it's not safe here anymore, okay?

Not until I figure things out.

Okay.

What do you guys think of South Africa?

I prefer France.

Me too,

but there's a flight
to Cape Town in a couple hours.

I think you guys should be on it.

Okay. What about you?

Well, once I find Freddy...

we'll be on our way.

[REPORTER]: ...An estimated
$ billion worth

of rough diamonds

are produced each year,

% of which come from Africa.

The diamond industry employs...

Is it true that piece was one of ours?

We're looking into it.

But it's possible?

My grandfather was
knee-deep in fur trading

when P.E.T.A.'s "fur is m*rder"

sh*t happened.

Bankrupted him.

And history repeats.

None of my clients would be caught dead

buying diamonds right now.

The American market's key.

He's right.

Without the Americans, we're f*cked.

Thank you for such
an astute regurgitation,

now don't mind me while I dump my shares.

[PHONE KEYS CLACKING]

[PHONE BEEPING]

Are you finished?

Shame. I was going to advise against it.

Now, what if I could tell you all

that I have a solution

that will turn this all around?

We're all ears.

Good, Charles,

because we are about
to make a bloody fortune.

[♪♪♪]

I'll be fast.

Okay. See if Freddy's in there.

Okay.

[EXHALING HEAVILY]

I'm sorry, Dad.

You didn't know, sweetheart.

Now, Braxton's a f*cking assh*le.

Just say that with me...

"f*ck that guy."

Dad.

Say it.

f*ck that guy.

Attagirl.

You know, but we're not all bad.

Some of us are, sure,

but not all of us.

He's not there.

f*ckin' Freddy.

Stay away from
boys like your uncle, Will.
