02x08 - Go Big or Go Home

[bunniefuu]

Pomrenke: in nome,
the only real way to be happy

Is to get on the gold.

Cha-ching.
Cha-ching.

I like the cha-ching.

Oh, yeah, baby.
Look at this.

Look at this -- yellow,
yellow, yellow, big time.

[ Singing ]

They're washing all their gold
right out the box.

Allen:
it ain't as easy as it looks.

Vernon: elaine,
you are such a [bleep] idiot.

Answer the phone!

I can't do everything
by myself.

What are you doing?!

There's not a lot
of happy people in nome.

I never
promised you anything!

I never
[bleep] promised you anything.

It's not my [bleep] fault.

Narrator: in nome, alaska,

The summer gold-dredging season
speeds towards its end.

Been off the water
for eight days now,

And it looks like
it could be another week.

Narrator:
and as the days grow shorter,

Fewer of them are dredgable.

It's just agonizing, because
you're not making any money.

You're just sitting around,
obsessed with the weather.

Narrator: for the miners,

A golden opportunity
is slipping away.

I would be really contemplating
eating my 38

If it wasn't for the fact

That I know this is what happens
this time of year.

You're always gonna have
this bad weather.

A lot of people are going home
right now.

Already they're going home.

Narrator:
at nome's small boat harbor...

So, where's
meister [bleep] these days?

M.i.a.

I saw him
two or three weeks ago,

And he looks like about


Narrator: three weeks ago...

Man: don't --
don't touch me.

Dude, scott.
Don't do it!

Narrator:
...captain scott meisterheim...

Hit bottom.

I'm going to rehab.

This [bleep] boat
and scott meisterheim --

This is hard
as I've ever been [bleep]

The skipper left his crew
high and dry.

Pretty sad, actually.
You know, I mean...

Steve r.: Well,
how about your future?

That doesn't have to be sad.
You guys can make it.

Yeah, but we're not gonna
make it on this boat.

That's pretty much
the final decision.

It's late in the season.

I mean, we all put our eggs
in scott's basket.

And he's failed us.

He's let us down,

Lied to us a bunch of
empty promises and lies.

Yeah.

I'm feeling pretty --
I don't know -- hurt? Betrayed?

You know, my friend
of 35-plus years

Took off to anchorage
and left us all broke.

I've never been treated
like this by anybody in my life.

And so at this stage
in the game, he can go his way,

And I can go my way,

And I couldn't give
two craps about it.

You know,
he's been very hurtful

Towards a lot of people
around here.

I've only got
so much sympathy in me,

And I try to reserve that
for people that deserve it.

Meisterheim, to me,

The man is less than
the dust of the earth.

You can't do this business
and go out drinking every night.

All I know is he's gone,
and I'm damn glad of it.

Dan: I want to take some gold
home this year.

I want to show my kids
something.

Yeah, I hear you.

You know,
if you want to come aboard,

I probably got a ride
for you.

Really?

Okay.
All right.

Take care, buddy.

I'm short a couple of divers

For the beast,
one of my dredges.

I'm gonna give dan a shot,

And he can bring todd with him,
and we'll see what happens.

Okay, guys, take care.

Narrator:
overnight, the skies clear.

And first on the water are three
generations of pomrenkes --

Shawn,
his 14-year-old son, dylan,

And shawn's father, steve.

Can you see why I was
in a bad mood, though, shawn?

Can you see
why you can't talk like

A normal [bleep] human being?

Narrator: three weeks ago...

We got 10 days in jail.

Right in the middle
of the season.

...shawn pomrenke's d.u.i...

I don't want dad
to go to jail.

...and
a $200,000 land payment...

We got to make as much gold
as we possibly can.

...put the pomrenkes' operation
in jeopardy.

Steve p.: If we don't come up
with this land payment,

We're gonna lose
all the ground that we have

And everything
we've built on it.

Narrator: now shawn and steve
are at the end of their rope.

Steve p.: Right now
we're crabby, pissed off.

Last year
we had 53 days of mining.

This year we're at 15 days.

And it doesn't help

That we have a $200,000
land payment coming up

And I'm going to jail.

We fill the tank up
and the [bleep] hose is down,

And it's
[bleep] draining fuel.

I'm sorry.

I worked [bleep]


Oh, yeah,
I hear that all the time.

Got up at 2:30.

Yes, yes,
I know how much you work.

I run the [bleep] dredge.

And I come out
and I'm [bleep] doing this.

I can't do
[bleep] everything by myself.

You got [bleep]
I understand that.

You [bleep] guys that took
two weeks off

That didn't do a [bleep] thing,
and I'm the only one?

So, why didn't you tell him
to get the...

Why didn't you tell him?

Okay, well, thanks for the com--
that's great communication.

Dylan, you can throw one of them
chairs back here, buddy.

Steve p.: Well, you're out
working with shawn, you know?

That's a butt-heads situation.

You know, butting heads,
me and him, we butt heads.

And you want to knock him down
a notch or two every so often,

And I'm --
and he doesn't like that.

And I actually don't like
doing that either,

But in order to
keep this business going,

I have to do that.

Shawn:
my father -- what does he do?

b*tches a lot, moans.

Think I'll be more of a father
to dylan than my dad was to me.

Yeah.

All right.
Fire that up.

Then you hit start.

[ Engine turns over ]

Nice-looking material
coming up.

Every bucket we put in the box

Is a bucket closer
to making the land payment.

But we need to come up with
another 150 ounces

To pay the land payment
before that payment's due.

This is probably the worst time
ever to go to jail,

But I screwed up.
And now I got to pay for it.

Oh, look at that bucket.
I mean, that...

Not too much in there.

Ask your dad,
"how's the digging there, dad?"

You should tell him,

"Hey, I didn't see
too much dirt in that bucket."

There wasn't too much in there
last time.

[ Laughs ]

I bet you couldn't even get
one rock in this material.

Oh!
[ Laughs ]

Bet you $100 towards
my motorcycle,

And if I lose,
I don't have to pay you nothing.

'Cause I'm the kid.

That sounds like
I'm gonna get

The short end of the stick
either way on that one.

[ Both laugh ]

...in lieu of $100.

Like what?

The house is getting
kind of messy.

Like...

...wash my truck.

...getting scared.

I'm gonna make him pay.

I want my truck spotless.

He's gonna get out there
with his toothbrush

And scrub that thing.

So I just need to get
one rock in the bucket?

Yep.

It's a deal.

Narrator: 7½½ miles away

On vernon adkison's dredge,
the beast...

So far, it's kind of nice not
being on the anchor management.

No yelling.
No screaming.

No scott.

Looking to save their season,

Dan larsen and todd allen head
out with tender isaiah webb.

We spent two months
building a boat for nothing.

Now we're on a boat that's
already built and going out.

So maybe we'll be a little bit
more prosperous on this one.

I haven't made any gold.

And the season's
more than half over.

You know,
you can always recover.

Hopefully we can salvage
what's left of the season.

Hopefully.

My goal is to get on the gold.

Come out of this
smelling like roses.

Larsen's going to be the first
one in the water right now,

And we're gonna check it out,

See if this is
gonna work for us.

I'm anxious to be dredging.

I want to make that gold.

I got to get paid from somebody,

And my paycheck's sitting
at the bottom of the ocean.

[ Laughs ]

Damn.

Whoo!

Narrator:
while dan larsen gets on
his first gold of the season,

Just 100 yards away
on the wild ranger...

How are things looking
down there, over?

...owner vernon adkison
and his crew are striking out.

"Nothing" ain't good.

All right, well, I'll let you
take care of your business.

Let me know
if you find anything.

Well, that ain't --
that's not good.

[Bleep]

Vernon:
I probably got a half a million
wrapped up in this operation.

If it keeps up like this,

We're not even gonna crack 100
ounces before the season ends.

That was my goal.

That was what
we had to have to carry on.

Narrator: five weeks ago...

The gold that was on the bottom
of the sea is now in my bucket.

Narrator: ...the skipper
finally busted out

Of a two-season slump,
but since then...

Galipeau: god damn.

Well, I guess we absolutely
couldn't be more [bleep] up.

Narrator: ...vernon struggles
as a captain...

Hey!
I need some cooperation here!

...and father
have pushed him to the limit.

Now 41 ounces
behind his 8-week target...

Galipeau: no gold
or very minor gold.

...vernon is sucking up sand...

I don't think this heavy pane
is the problem.

And making things worse...

[Bleep]

...the captain's daughter,
elaine,

And his dredge,
the bering booty, are no-shows.

Yeah, hey, elaine,

Are y'all gonna dive
that boat today or not?

Y'all not gonna work that boat,
let me know.

I'll get somebody else
that does.

[Bleep]

You need to come out here
and relieve me at 1:00.

I got to go.

Vernon: I got to get ashore,

Get the booty ready
to come out here and dredge.

And, so I'm gonna have elaine
come out and relieve me.

We're losing gold as we speak

Because the bering booty
is not out here right now.

It should be right over there
sucking gold.

It's not.

So yeah,
it's costing me money.

And that pisses me right off.

Narrator: a mile offshore...

[ Laughs ]

Man: whoo!

After eight weeks of futility,

Dan larsen
is finally on the gold.

Allen: right now
I'm pretty excited.

And there's big dollar signs
at the end of the rainbow

If we can make this work.

[Bleep] me.

Seriously, man.

Narrator: dan sucks a cluster
of rocks into the hose...

...jamming it.

[ Engine stops ]

Oh [bleep]

What happened, bro?

Larsen got a plug in the hose,

And so we're raising it,
gonna unplug it.

Narrator: 100 yards away
on the wild ranger...

Galipeau: no gold.
It just really isn't very good.

...diver daryl galipeau's
coming up empty.

And owner vernon adkison

Sees that his other dredge
is stalled out.

Vernon: that's my dredge.
I get a cut of this gold.

You fix the problem
and continue dredging.

Otherwise, I mean, you're not
gonna get any gold in the box.

[ Hammering ]

[ Engine turns over ]

Narrator:
trying to flush out the clog,

Deckhand isaiah webb
revs the engine.

[ Engine revving ]

While the crew struggles
to shut it down,



They're washing all their gold
right out the box.

Bummer.

...reality is sinking in.

Vernon: when they blasted out
the back of the box,

That's like taking money
out of my pocket.

At this stage of the game,
every flake of gold counts.

We can't afford
to be pissing gold away.

[ Sighs ]

[Bleep]

[ Engine puttering ]

So any gold we got on the east
beach is now on the west beach.

That's my [bleep] gold.

And we got a big-a*s
freaking pile of rocks.

Allen: you know what?

I've been out three times,

And this has been the scenario
all three times.

If that's par for the course,
you can have it.

I'll go back to arizona.

[Bleep] it.

Hey, isaiah,
you want to buy a wet suit?

Why are you so fired up?

Because I'm done with
this [bleep]

This is [bleep]

If you go, man, I'm pretty much
flapping in the wind.

Been nice, been real.

Let's go back in,
fix it at home.

[ Engine turns over ]

You can take the bering sea
and stick it up your [bleep]

Vernon: [bleep] [bleep]

[Bleep]

Why'd they even bother
to come out here?

I don't care
how frustrated they are.

You don't just
pack up and go home.

This ain't the way you
make money with a damn dredge.

Narrator:
seven miles up the coast...

It's been hard
in the past couple of weeks.

We haven't been able to
get into a rhythm

And get into a grind,
you know?

We'll get out on the water

For, like, a little while,
get chased off.

Get back out,
have a little problem.

And then we start to
get on each others' nerves.

Narrator: with the season
entering its home stretch,

Zeke has only made a 20-ounce
dent in his 400-ounce goal.

We're nowhere near
our benchmark.

And the weather
isn't helping us out.

Sometimes
it feels kind of hopeless,

Like I'm just working,
spinning my wheels,

But I keep -- you know, I think

There's a huge payday
right around the corner.

That's a spot
we want to go to.

Right here,
throw it out here.

How's the gold?

Yeah, no, no,
we need to take advantage of it.

The weather is, like,
couldn't be more perfect.

Wowsie. Wow.

Narrator:
last summer...

Emily: not even god
could sink this...

Not even god could sink
this ship.

[ Laughs ]

...zeke brought childhood friend
emily riedel on

As his deckhand...

...but it didn't work out.

Tenhoff: I sort of regret
having emily come up here

In that, you know,
it hacks me off pretty tough

When she flirts
with other guys.

You have to clarify

What, like, what the nature
of our relationship is.

Am I your -- am I your --
hey, listen to me!

It's not working out,
us living together.

I don't want to have
to look at you when I
wake up in the morning.

I don't want
to have to do that.

[ Voice breaking ] I don't think
I have a place to live.

Yeah, a salary. For coming
up here and banging you.

Uh-huh.

Money is the only way
to keep a woman up here.

I just assume that you'd be
paying your ex to stay here.

I think you should.

Why don't you give her
a week-to-week?

She'll probably come up here

And end up hooking up
with shawn pomrenke.

[ Laughs ]

[ Laughing ]

Hey, you know what?
You -- you started it.

You provoked me.

I am
a little bit jealous.

I mean,
I'll [bleep] admit to that.

Well,
don't express it to me.

[Bleep] going through
my text messages.

Yeah, exactly.

Oh [bleep] you, dude.

Yeah, well,
maybe I will.

Maybe I'd get
a little better gold count.

Oh, yes, you do.

Narrator: on the edge...

Well,
I wasn't your girlfriend.

Hey, you know what?

That was the only comeback
I could think of at the moment.

Oh, my god.
Dude, you [bleep] --

You've insulted me
so many times,

And I have, like,
one good comeback

That I know will
[bleep] bother you,

And you get all
[bleep] flustered about it.

You know what, like, you can
dish out all sorts of [bleep]

And then as soon
as I dish it out,

You just can't take it.

You're [bleep] pride,
it's like it's all about
pride, pride, pride.

"Oh, my god. You embarrassed
me so much last summer.

Oh, my god."

Well, you know what?
[Bleep] you, dude.

I never promised you
anything!

I never [bleep] promised
you [bleep]

It's not my [bleep] fault.

I was very clear
from the very [bleep] get go!

You know what?
[Bleep] you.

You can't just [bleep]
spew your venom at me

And then, like,
act all calm about it.

You know, the [bleep] pomrenke
thing was a [bleep] joke.

I'm sorry it offended you
so much, zeke,

But you [bleep]
like I [bleep] say one thing,

And then all of a sudden, you're
[bleep] calling me a wh*re.

You [bleep] like, calling me,
like, untrustworthy.

And that I'm just using you.

And it's like,
what the [bleep] dude?

Is that what you really think?

If that's what you really
[bleep] think, then [bleep] you.

I'll go [bleep] work
somewhere else.

No, you don't, dude.

No, I [bleep] deal with your
attitude about it all the time.

You don't even understand.

You don't even, like, know
how you treat me.

How, like, all the time,
you're at least sullen with me,

And sometimes you
just, like, withdraw

And completely disappear.

You're not that bad,
but, you know, I do sense it.

I do sense that
you're still angry at me.

You know, like, don't think

You're being all subtle
about it, 'cause you're not.

Honestly,
this is nothing personal,

But the best thing we should do
is not even speak

Unless
we're dredging together.

Okay, if that's what you want,
then that sounds good.

Yeah, that sounds awesome.
That sounds [bleep] awesome.

Emily: you know, just when
I think that we're cool,

When everything's fine,
something like that happens.

We have a big blowout, and...

I mean,
I give zeke [bleep] about it,

But the best thing for him
would be to, you know,

For him to just kind of move on,

Have, like, another woman

To complicate his life
that's not me.

Narrator:
half a mile up the coast...

Steve p.: Tough digging here.

Tough, tough digging.

Narrator: ...christine rose
co-owner steve pomrenke

Is nearing the end
of a four-hour shift.

Steve p.: We need to make
as much gold as we can.

I got to make this land payment
to secure our complex out there.

Narrator: but in the wheelhouse,



Is only worried
about the bet with his father.

We're gonna get that 100 bucks
off your dad

One way or the other, eh?

Dylan: yeah.

Narrator: while his father
sleeps before his next shift,

Dylan gets a digging lesson
from his grandpa.

Steve p.:
Stretch everything out.

That would be this way
with the stick

And down with the boom.

Leave your bucket
all the way open.

Yep.

Smooth, smooth.

Okay, you're gonna need to
keep that one all the way down.

All the time.

Now just curl your bucket.

Bring your boom up.

You should have some rocks
in there, I'll bet you.

Look at that, dylan.

You got
just as much as grandpa.

Now you got to get it
into the plant

Without smashing the plant.

Think you can get a rock
in that bucket now?

I think you can, too.

Dylan: I had to pee.

Narrator: seven miles away
on the wild ranger...

[ Cellphone rings ]

Vernon: [bleep]

...with only one if his six rigs
on the water,

Vernon scrambles

To take advantage
of the dredging window.

Vernon: she does that
all the damn time!

She never carries her phone
with her, never answers it.

We got business
to take care of here.

Narrator: but his daughter,
elaine, is late to work.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

[ Beep ]

Yeah, elaine, did you have
any [bleep] idea

How much grief you're causing me

By not answering
your [bleep] phone?!

Answer the phone!

[Bleep] idiot.

[Bleep]

[Bleep]

She won't answer
her damn phone!

How in the hell
are you supposed to do business

When you got an idiot that
won't answer the damn phone?!

I ought to tell her to pack her
[bleep] and get out of here,

Her and clint both.

They're not doing me
a damn bit of good.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

[ Beep ]

Elaine, you are such
a [bleep] idiot.

You're [bleep] up
the whole program here.

Answer your [bleep] phone!

Narrator:
on the christine rose...

Hey, time to come
lose a bet, dylan.

You ain't losing
no bet, dylan.

You ain't losing no bet.
Dylan: I know that.

It's just one rock.

I just need something
about that big.

Narrator:
...it's time for dylan pomrenke

To settle a bet
with his father, shawn.

Shawn: you see
what's in that bucket?

That's what you're gonna get --
nothing.

[ Laughs ]

I want my truck spotless --
and my house.

What the heck's going on?

You been practicing?

You can't -- you think
you're gonna see the bucket?

You can't see the bucket.

This is all blind, buddy.

Oh,
you think you got it?

Oh, I see some dirt.

Let's see that rock.

Let's see that rock.

Ahhhhhhh!

Oh!

[ Laughs ]

Waaah!

That is --
you were so close.

[ Laughing ] one rock.

Earlier I was...
Yeah!

[ Laughs ]

Yeah!

Yeah, I should've made it
two rocks.

[ Rock thuds ]

Good job. You won.

You got another $100
toward your motorcycle.

Mining --
it's not an easy life.

So I'm hoping to
teach my son that,

Hey, maybe you ought to
think about going to college.

[ Laughs ]

But he'll probably end up
being a miner just like me.

There's a lot of gold
left out there.

It's just figuring out
the way to get it up...

In my pocket.

Narrator: on the wild ranger...

...vernon adkison needed
to get to shore hours ago.

Vernon:
here comes elaine.

...but his daughter elaine is
just arriving to cover for him.

All right, jay,
I'll be going back with you.

All right.

Elaine, why couldn't
I get you on the phone?

I don't know, dad.

Did you have your phone
with you?

I do now.

Why weren't you
answering the phone?

How many times
did you call me?

I called you
too-damn-many times.

I got business
to take care of.

Yeah. Then let's get it
taken care of.

No! Listen, what I'm telling
you is, I got business, right?

Yeah.

You answer the damn phone
when I call you!

Otherwise get on the plane
and get the hell out of here!

I'm serious.
I got a business to run.

I can't do it if you don't
answer the damn phone.

Obviously I'm right here.

I had things
that I needed you to do.

I call you --
you don't answer your phone.

You know what?

I'm telling you,
if you can't communicate, go.

Show me what's going on
so we can get things moving.

Let's go. Show me.

I need to understand
the basis of what's going on.

Vernon: so, you really pissed
me off with that phone thing.

Elaine: I understand that.

Where's the air compressor?

Elaine: one of my goals
when I came up to nome

Was to build a better
relationship with my dad.

Which...hasn't been the case.

Don't worry about
the air compressor.

There's the tachometer.
Okay?

It's running a little low
right now.

No one's feeling more pressure
than my dad right now.

He's running out of money.

If he hasn't already,
he's...pretty damn close.

Basically
put everything on the line,

And if we don't
produce any gold,

He could lose everything.

It's scary watching my dad
take such a big risk.

Narrator: on the edge...

Man: tie me there?

... Diver john bunce arrives

To help zeke tenhoff
wrap up a hard day's dredge.

Today we got


We need more --
more days like this.

There's gold in here.

A lot more than
there was this morning.

See the little clusters?

Golden ripples.

[ Laughing ]
I like what I see, man.

There's a lot of gold in there.

Got to get this hose out.
We got to get home.

I got to get
the sluice box cleaned out,

Because I want to know exactly
how much gold is in the box.

Narrator: when in the cabin,
deckhand emily riedel

Is still bristling
from an argument with zeke.

He said
some pretty hurtful [bleep]

I'm pretty pissed off about it.

And I'm not really...in the mood
to hear him apologize.

If you have
a history with someone,

You have ammunition

That you can bring out
when you're angry at them,

And fighting can get
really personal really quickly.

And it gets easy to be
really mean to each other.

It would be immature
to let that end our friendship.

Tenhoff: emily...

At the end of the day,

I know I call you
a [bleep] a lot,

But, uh, like, on the scale of
[bleep] that I know,

You're pretty low
on the scale.

You're really not
that much of a [bleep]

Even though I call you
a [bleep] a lot.

You're not really.

You're really dramatic.
That's true.

But I think you'll own that.

But I'm sorry I call you
a [bleep] so much.

You're really not.

I'm sorry
we got in a big fight today.

I hope
we can put it behind us.

And if you really want to
go to work for shawn

'Cause he's got
a higher gold count,

Then I -- you should do that.
[ Laughs ]

[ Laughs ]

You know, I was really mad
at you for a while,

And now, I don't know.

We just have to remember

That we're not always gonna
like each other.

And that's important.

If we're gonna retain
any kind of friendship,

We have to be able to
supercede friendship

When we're trying to work.

For right now,
I mean, you're good.

Here, give me a solid.

You know.

Emily: zeke and I have a really
confusing relationship.

There's a lot of sexual tension
right beneath the surface,

Ready to just blow up
at any moment.

I don't see
our relationship changing

To become more healthy
any time soon.

Later.

If I'm gonna punch you,
it's gonna be in the face.

Ah!
Okay.

All right.
[ Laughs ]

Hey, john, let's buzz by
the christine rose

Since we're --
since we're close by.

Okay.

Tenhoff:
get right underneath it.

Emily: go big or go home!
[ Laughs ]

Narrator:
on the christine rose...

Three generations of pomrenkes

Have had a better day
on the bering sea.

Grandpa, how much gold
do you think's in the box?

I think we got


That's what
I was thinking, too.

In just a couple of days.

But we're doing
pretty dang good here, you know.

See it on the flap here?

Oh, yeah.

Oh, I see gold.
I see gold.

Shawn: well,
it keeps going like this,

We might just make
that land payment.

Narrator: the next morning...

[ Cellphone rings ]

Hello?

That's total disrespect
after I offered him my hand.

We shook on a deal,
and then he doesn't even call?

...vernon adkison's new hires,
dan larsen and todd allen,

Are no-shows on the beast.

Vernon:
here I give these guys a break.

Isaiah's waiting for them,

Got the rig standing by,
ready to go.

Todd and dan, the don't show up.

And so I got to go
back to the drawing board.

I got to dig up
some more crew members.

Narrator: on the outskirts
of town at the nome airport

Three weary drudgers
say their goodbyes...

Mr. Allen.
Been real, man. Whatever.

...as they catch
separate flights out of town.

Take care, man.
Yeah, you, too, bud.

Dan: vern offered me
a job on his boat,

But when I sit back
and I think about it,

It's just not worth
the headache.

So it's going back to plan b,

Doing trade work
at home in kentucky.

Allen: I guess I'm just gonna
go back to arizona

And figure out
another game plan.

One that's not involving
scott meisterheim.

I was hoping
things would be different.

But 9 times out of 10,

If it sounds too good
to be true, it usually is.

Narrator: back in town,

In zeke and emily's apartment...

Emily: whoa,
look at all the gold in there.

Holy [bleep]

Narrator: more than 200 ounces
off the pace he set for himself,

The captain needs a big score
just to stay in business.

Tenhoff: I mean, that's
a lot of bling right there.

Oh, no [bleep] way.

Dude.

Right on. 7½½.

About $10,000.

Narrator: for the edge, it's
the biggest haul of the season.

Tenhoff: cha-ching!

Ching! Ching!

I think emily
is the perfect girl for me

In a lot of ways.

But...i would never date emily
in a million years.

I would just want
to marry emily.

Yeah.
Cheers.

Yeah, cheers.
Night, emily.

Narrator: the edge scored big,

But they'll have to
push the pace

To get anywhere close to zeke's
lofty goal of 400 ounces.

Vernon: shawn's going to jail.

Shawn: I feel like
I'm leaving everybody hanging.

What are you doing?!

Steve p.: Oh, yeah, baby.
Look at this.

The mother lode.

Tenhoff:
I just -- I just witnessed
someone commit suicide.

He answered the door
with a -- with a loaded .44.

Spun the cartridge and put it to
his head and pulled the trigger.
