02x07 - Dirtville

[bunniefuu]

[ Wind howling ]

[ Dog barks ]
allen: this is real life.

It's hardcore living.

That's home right there.

[Bleep]ville.

Man: don't...

Don't touch me.

[ Pounding ]

If you want to know the truth,

They're all
going to go home broke.

Meisterheim:
there's a lot of [bleep]
going on upstairs here for me.

And I'm going to leave.

Just going to hell
in a handbasket.

[ Crash! ]

Why would you ram
our [bleep] like that?

Steve p.:
You would hope you never need
it, but it'll do the job.

Narrator:
a new day dawns in nome, alaska.

Beautiful day.
Beautiful morning.

Narrator: for the fleet,

The bering sea's calm
means a chance to harvest gold.

Shawn: beautiful.
Beautiful pay dirt.

Big rocks, smaller rocks, black.

Narrator: with the season
more than half over...

Vernon: we ought to go out
and stick our nose in it

And hopefully at least get in
a few hours

Before we get shut down
with weather.

Narrator: ...desperation
is starting to set in.

Things are going haywire.
And I've had enough.

Haywire?

The dude's --
he's lost sight of the goal.

And the goal
is to get some gold.

Narrator: two days ago...

Meisterheim:
I got investors breathing down
my neck for their money,

And I don't know
what else to do.

It just seems nice
to just go drink it away.

Man: don't...

Don't touch me.

Man #2: hey, scott.
Don't do it!

[ Pounding ]

Narrator:
...scott meisterheim cracked...

And his crew
hasn't seen him since.

You know,
we're getting phone calls

That's he's apparently
wandering around town aimlessly,

You know, drunk off his a*s.
Drunk off his a*s.

It sucks to see somebody you've
known for so many years do that.

But, I mean, I'm not his dad.
I can't tell him what to do.

It's scott meisterheim,
for [bleep] sake.

I mean, dude, I've been through
[bleep] with scott.

I told him I'd follow him
through the gates of hell.

But, my god,
I didn't think

He was going to actually take me
through the gates of hell.

[ Ringing ]

Narrator:
on the wild ranger...

Galipeau: where's steve?

Vernon:
that would be a good question.

I have no idea
where steve is.

...deckhand steve riedel
is a no-show.

Well, I'm upgrading
my kitchen floor

With this kind of like
grain-rock kind of sized rock.

If we didn't do this,

Steve wouldn't let us eat out
of the kitchen anymore.

Oh, man, I need to nap.
That was brutal.

[ Ringing ]

So we probably lost four or five
hours of good diving.

[Bleep]

Narrator:
out on the christine rose...

Yeah!

It's a good feeling
to get back out here.

Nice break in the weather.

We're in good material here.

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

Narrator:
...co-owner steve pomrenke
needs gold more than ever

To pay for the land
the family compound is built on.

Steve p.:
We need to come up with $205,000
for our land payment.

If we don't come up
with this land payment,

We're going to lose
all the ground that we have

And everything
we've built on it.

[ Rattling ]

That's the sound of money, baby.
We like to hear that noise.

Like the slot machines in vegas.

[ Imitates
jackpot coins clinking ]

Narrator:
on the edge...

Tenhoff: the whole reason
I stayed out here was so that,

We wouldn't have to waste
the time

Of bringing the dredge back, you
know, out here in the morning.

Narrator:
...captain zeke tenhoff
overnighted on the dredge,

But his shot at an early start
is slipping away.

Tenhoff: john and emily
are just no-shows.

I'm not happy with emily
and john right now at all.

Really unhappy with them.

Tenhoff: you're late!

Bunce: me and emily were both
like, yeah, we'll be out,

Like, I mean...

[Bleep] went out drinking?
Come on.

I'm really frustrated that going
out to the bar and drinking

Is more of a priority for emily
than making sure

That the dredge is running
and we're getting gold.

If you're not out dredging when
the dredging weather is perfect

In this short season,
you're going to fail.

Oh, emily.
Well, emily tried to call me.

Narrator:
in nome harbor...

It's been pretty much
a slow-motion train wreck

For quite a few weeks now.

It's been ugly.

Larsen: scott's gone. I mean,
I got to do what I have to do.

Narrator: the crew
of the anchor management

Tends to their dredge

With no sign of their captain,
scott meisterheim.

We got to do what we got to do.
It's...

We're broke and hungry,
and he's gone.

Going down to the bar
and slurping down some drinks.

He -- he -- he refuses to see
past his pride, you know.

"I don't have
no stinking problem.

I'm scott meisterheim.
I don't have no problem."

And it's just --

It's kicking him in his a*s
is what it's doing.

What's up, boss?

Can you take a break
for a minute?

Yeah.

There's a lot of [bleep]
going on upstairs here for me.

And I'm going to leave
tomorrow.

I have to leave town.
It could be for a couple weeks.

Where are you going?

I'm going --
I'm going to rehab.

I've hit rock bottom,
and I'm drinking every day.

People who don't drink,
come to nome. You'll drink.

This place
will drive you to drink.

I realized that I have several
problems all compiled into one.

Anger, drinking, stupid people.

I need to speak to somebody.
We'll see where it goes.

[Bleep] everyone.
I got to take care of myself.

If you guys will stick it out
and wait for me to get back,

I'll come back a better person
and we'll get this thing

Rocking-and-rolling
like it's supposed to.

Because I understand --

If any one of you
wanted to leave right now,

I-i would totally understand.

Yeah, we're living
like animals out there,

And that ain't
having [bleep]

Sucks.

Allen:
he's half-a*s giving me

This apology speech
and this and that.

And I'm like, really?

Whatever, dude.

I hope he finds
what he's looking for, but...

I mean, scott kind of
left us all in a pinch.

Broke, no money, you know.

How -- what am I -- what am I
supposed to say to that?

I mean, really.

You worry about you, and
we'll figure it out from there.

Narrator: with the
anchor management in free fall,

Out on the water,

The christine rose
is kicking into high gear.

We have a lot riding on this
little weather gap right here.

It's huge. Like, it couldn't
have came at a better time.

Narrator:
so far this season...

Dnr just shut
the christine rose down.

Narrator:
...the alaska dnr...

I don't want
dad to go to jail.

Narrator:
...and shawn's dui...

Steve p.: He's supposed to be
my business partner.

Well, pretty hard to do business
when you're in jail.

Narrator: ...have kept
the christine rose

Well short
of their 800-ounce season goal.

I'd do anything
just to put a dent

In this stack of bills
that we got here.

Get out there
and find some damn gold.

Narrator: and now with
a $200,000 land payment nearing,

The christine rose
needs gold fast.

You know, we got
this big piece of property

And steve's trying to make it,
you know,

So the crew and the family
and --

We'll have somewhere
to build our houses on.

To build shops
and work on our equipment.

You know, this season
being the way it is,

Steve don't have enough money
to pay for the land

And they're demanding a payment.

It's around $200,000
that we need to come up with,

And that's, you know,
that's 150 ounces of gold.

We ain't even made 100 ounces
in this season yet.

We're just all going to pitch in
and go as hard as we can

Until...

[ Crash! ]

Why would you ram
our [bleep] like that?

Like, what is
the [bleep] deal, man?

Narrator:
on the christine rose...

[ Crash! ]

Why would you ram
our [bleep] like that?

Like, what is
the [bleep] deal, man?

Really?

Throwing [bleep]
at us.

The [bleep]
is that [bleep]

Seriously.

Norm's partner is out here
with a boat,

Trying to keep us from digging.

Narrator:
five weeks ago...

...the christine rose purchased
the right to mine a lease.

But one of the claim's co-owners
didn't get the memo.

You want to [bleep] call
the cops or something?

Call the cops!

Have the troopers
come out here

And [bleep] kick us out
of here, you dumb [bleep]

We got norm's permission to dig
on his half of this ground.

All this ground ain't all his.
The guy is here with the boat.

Only half of the ground is his.

Him and norm haven't gotten
along for years.

Moen: so, does he want me to
[bleep] his boat up?

Is that
what he's trying to do?

I mean,
he's going to ram into me

And I'm going to end up
smashing his boat.

It's going to be
his fault.

Why don't you call norm
and talk to norm?

He ain't going to win
against the excavator
and a big [bleep] barge

In a little boat like that;
I don't know what he's thinking.

Steve p.: I haven't shot
this thing for so long.

Moen: that guy can throw
a [bleep] hissy fit,

Throw [bleep]
at our windows, and...

Ah, he's a [bleep] idiot.

What's he want,
to [bleep] his boat up?

He's lucky I didn't throw
a whole [bleep] scoop of clay

On that [bleep]

yeah, he's pretty lucky.
i held the bucket...

He's pretty
[bleep]damn lucky.

Hey, buddy, I'm really sorry
to leave you out there for that.

But, you know, one pomrenke
going to jail is enough already.

Narrator:
five miles away...

Make gold before the wind blows.

This might be the last
little payday we can get

Before it all turns bad.

Narrator:
...the wild ranger arrives late
to the crowded mining grounds.

Vernon:
I want to get down there and see

Where these boats are
in relationship to our spots.

I see the booty right there.

Narrator: owner vernon adkison
has been beat to his honey hole

By his daughter, elaine,
on the bering booty.

Vernon: that's not surprising.
That's my daughter.

I raised a female pirate.

Narrator:
just two days ago...

Collins: we're going to go r*pe
the ranger hole.

I can't believe
they marked the spot.

...elaine scooped her father's
gold and left a calling card.

"Thanks for the great spot.
X's and o's, bering booty."

Narrator: now the skipper and
his top diver, daryl galipeau,

Move in on the booty's position.

Galipeau: I'm just talking
like 75 feet south.

Vernon: yeah, that
ought to be entirely doable.

My dad was running his mouth
about an 800-foot perimeter.

That don't look like 800 feet
to me.



I think
this is where we want to be.

Look at that [bleep]

Dad needs to learn
how to secure an anchor.

You guys need some help?

We need to get three or four
ounces today. We really do.

Vernon:
gold mining is like digging a
hole and pouring money into it,

Hoping to get gold out of it.

Definitely feeling pressure.

Narrator: more than halfway
into the season,

Vernon has mined just 20 of the


How are things looking
down there? Over.

oh [bleep]

look at that.

Oh, he's on the gold.
He's big time on the gold.

He is the gold-getting
hound dog.

The wind's starting
to come up stronger.

Pretty much out
of the west, northwest.

yeah, hey, topside.

hello?
anybody up there?

Yeah, daryl?
This anchor is dragging.

all I can tell you
is it drug me off.

like, I can't reach
the front of the hole now.

If I shift the boat out,

It will put you up towards
the forward end of the boat.

Over.

i -- you know, I can't line out
directions from down here.

all I can tell you is I need
the dredge to come towards me.

Stand by.

yeah, now whatever we're doing
there is dragging me away.

you're dragging me away.

dragging away,
dragging away.

i'm about 20 feet
from the front of the hole now.

With two anchors out,

There's only so many ways
I can shift this damn thing.

We need to get on the gold.

We need the damn
piece of equipment

To work the way
it's supposed to work.

Narrator: in nome harbor...

Stress levels are high.

Everybody's broke.
Everybody's hungry.

Narrator: ...the crew
of the anchor management

Is prepping to mine for gold
without their skipper.

Allen: scott just bailed
and left us all broke.

No food, no nothing.

I don't even know where he's at.
Some -- I don't know.

He's getting
his head checked out.

And he ain't paid us nothing.

We've been working our asses off
on his boat.

And for what, man?
Nobody's got paid nothing yet.

I took a gamble and I put
all my eggs in scott's basket

And came to...

You know, flew nearly


After all of this time, man,

All this working
and busting knuckles

And bleeding all over the boat
and everything else...

And then I'm, like,
champing at the bit.

I came up here to get gold.

[ Engine sputters ]

Larsen: almost there.
If this fires up, we're done.

[ Engine turns over ]

There you go.

Rev it up.

We're making gold.

We're going out
to [bleep] make money.

[ Creaking ]

[ Engine stops ]

Oh, man.

[ Engine sputtering ]

[ Engine whirs, stops ]

Every time we fire
one of these [bleep] up,

Man, something else
is wrong with them.

We have two damn motors.

Neither one of them run right.

We don't have any money
to buy parts.

I'm no professional mechanic.

I'm good at fixing stuff,
but, I mean...

Neither one of these damn motors
runs worth a [bleep]

Larsen:
we don't have any more parts.

We don't have the means
to purchase anything.

We ran out of trading materials.

[ Engine sputtering ]

I'm sick
of [bleep] with this thing.

Really?!

I don't even know how to...

I don't even know
what to [bleep] say to that.

[Bleep] going through
his terrible twos or something.

Todd, what is wrong?
[Bleep]

You don't think
I am sick and tired

Of working on this
piece of [bleep] too?

Give me the keys
to that [bleep] thing.

Just [bleep] about it
ain't going to get it fixed.

Does this engine
[bleep] work?

This is -- this [bleep]damn boat
and scott meisterheim --

This is the hardest
I've ever been [bleep]

We are -- we are literally
like hours -- hours -- away.

You can sit here
and bend yourself over, man.

You can [bleep] drive a train
through my [bleep] right now.

You and I are going to go out
on the water,

And we're going to just [bleep]
that [bleep] ocean floor.

Yeah, after it's
all [bleep] done.

Yeah, because I've done
nothing on this boat.

Because you did
everything all by yourself.

Thanks, todd.

Thanks, todd allen, for
[bleep] building scott's boat

For everybody else
to [bleep] use.

Narrator:
a mile off the coast of nome...

that's taking me away.
it's dragging me off.

Vernon: yeah, I think
the stern anchor is dragging

And it's dragging up
under the booty right now.

Narrator: ...rising winds
and poorly-set anchors

Are pulling the wild ranger
off its hot spot...

damn.
well, I guess

we absolutely couldn't be
more [bleep] up than we are.

...and bucking
diver daryl galipeau around

On the bottom.

we need to be
right where the gold is.

we can't just stretch
where the boat ends up.

Sometimes these anchors
just don't hold worth a damn.

The anchor is dragging
underneath the booty,

Which is not good

Because there's all kinds
of stuff hanging down

That it'll get caught on.

Hey, elaine!

We got a problem.

Hey!
I need some cooperation here!

We're getting ready to move!
Chill!

Narrator:
vernon's daughter, elaine,

Doesn't cooperate fast enough
for her father's taste.

Hey, elaine!

We got a problem!
Move the [bleep] anchor line!

We're moving!
Just hold on!

Yeah! Thank you for parking
right on our a*s!

This wouldn't
have happened

If you would've followed
the rules!



While the bering booty
moves off...

i guess I'm
going to play anchor today.

...daryl takes the situation
in hand

And tries to pull the dredge
back on the gold.

i ain't got
enough weight.

what's happening
is the drifts are changing.

Seems like we're
steadily moving to the south.

wonderful.

i can only fight
so many things.

we're looking
at re-anchoring, man.

i can't -- I can't do anything
with this position.

we're drag--
we're totally dragging off.

I can give you about...

[bleep]damn.

[bleep]

[bleep]

Yeah, this
just ain't working.

I don't know what's going on,

But we either
don't have enough --

We don't have anchor
or something.

We -- we can't dredge.

There's just no way you can
dredge when you're doing this.

Galipeau:
now we're in gold

That is about as good as you're
going to find out here,

Over an ounce an hour.

And we're getting ate up by --

You know,
we can't hold position.

I don't think vern is gonna
learn how to anchor the boat.

It's upsetting.

It's less gold in the box
at the end of the day.

Narrator:
seven miles up the coast...

...captain zeke tenhoff
has been mining for six hours...

...but is still stewing about
deckhand emily riedel's no-show

Earlier this morning.

I'd really banked on being able
to get out of debt this season.

It's not happening.

At this point, I have barely
enough money to keep going.

The amount of debt that I have,
it doesn't make any sense at all

For me to just go get a wage job
and try to pay it off.

The only thing that's
going to get me out of debt

Is getting into the gold
real good.

Go ahead.

Narrator: but topside,
the weather's turning ugly.

We've got like 4 1/2-foot
rollers with whitecaps.

Every time I see one coming,
I'm like oh [bleep]

Then the dredge
just cuts right through it.

Tenhoff: [bleep]

Bunce:
it doesn't look like these waves
are calming down any.

Actually, if it gets any worse,

I'm going to start worrying
about our skiff,

Like [bleep] ripping off
and floating away.

just be careful
when you come up.

The waves are so big
that they're coming over
the top of the pontoon.

[ Groans ]

John!

John!

Aah!

Narrator: a mile from shore,
on the edge...

Aah!

I'm going to try that
again.

...zeke tenhoff is fighting
through five-foot swells

To get back on the dredge.

[Bleep]

All right.

[Bleep] this weather!
What the hell?!

Bunce: I want to get
this sluice box winched up.

[Bleep]

Whoa.

Yeah, it's
[bleep] gnarly, man.

Yeah, we should probably
get out of here.

It's too rough.

I really, I really don't want to
have to swim for it again.

Not in this.

I think the gamble that
might kind of [bleep] us over

Is how much fuel we used
while we were mining.

We really don't have
much gas.

I thought there was more gas
in there. So...

We're going to have to...

Keep her right above two.

Yeah.

Go real slow.

If we run out of fuel, I'm going
to have to jump in the skiff.

Then we're going to have to hook
up a tow rope to the edge

And we're going to have to pull
the edge with the skiff.

It's not a good way to go
at all.

I don't know
how well it'll work.

It'll have to work
if it's our only option.

But it'll make it so that
we can't really steer the edge.

I don't know.
I hope it doesn't come to that.

But if we do run out of gas,
we're going to --

Our only option...

[Bleep]

That sucks.

Narrator:
the skiff's towline has snapped.

Now they have to waste more gas
to retrieve it.

Really sucks.

[Bleep]

Okay.

This is going to
have to be perfect.

[Bleep]

You'll never be able
to hold it with your hand.

[Bleep]

Use the pole.

Oh [bleep]

Okay, I'm going to jump
in the skiff and drive it
alongside you, all right?

Step on the engine
and jump in.

Once we make it past these --
this rock barrier,

That's like
half the stress gone.

Whoo.

We're good, we're good.
Kind of a bigger leap for me.

I really didn't know
if we were going to run out.

Tenhoff: we got back.

Got a little hairy there
for a minute,

But it went well in the end.

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

Vernon:
the wind's kicking up.

Right now, I think the day,
as far as dredging,

Is pretty much over.

Galipeau: it's starting
to whitecap already.

It's coming up, actually,
pretty fast.

Vernon: let's bag it.

We'll go home.

Oh.
What happened to that?

Huh...

I wonder
if it's out of gas.

It can't be out of gas.

Narrator:
for owner vernon adkison,

A day of tangled lines and
missed chances isn't quite over.

h*! h*!

Shut it down.
Raise the motor.

We got a line
around the prop.

We need to have a school
on the topside, you know,

So that vernon can see what
you need to be doing up on top.

Because at this point,
vern alone isn't gonna cut it.

You know, a little mistake

Turned into
a catastrophic mistake.

Ruined the rest of the day.

Let's see here.

Oh, there are some whitecaps.

Narrator: the wind has blown
the fleet off the water

And shows no sign of letting up.

Allen:
I'm [bleep] stranded in nome.

Broke.

We got [bleep]

Narrator:
at vernon adkison's trailer...

...deckhand flint collins
of the bering booty

Filters gold mined
from vernon's hole.

Looking better than it was
a couple minutes ago.

Narrator:
in the next room...

Did we ever figure out
how much I was burning?



...vernon's breaking down

The wild ranger's
failed dredging day.

[ Ringing ]

Eight hours ago...

So, where's steve?

That would be
a good question.

I have no idea
where steve is.

...steve riedel skipped work
to do home improvements.

Well, I'm upgrading
my kitchen floor.

Narrator: and at the end of
the day, steve is still m.i.a.

The thing about steve is,

Some days he seems like
a reasonable person.

And then other days,
he's just totally off the wall.

You never know
which steve you're going to get.

Hey.
How you doing?

Hey. Hey, hey.

What's happening?

Well, kind of
raining and storming.

Probably a good time
to sit around

And get some business
taken care of.

So...anyway...
Yeah.

Since you were there
and tending,

I'll pay you
out of my share.

I don't know if steve realizes

Exactly
what in the hell is going on.

I really don't.
I can't understand him.

Maybe he thinks
he's doing good work,

But I think he's up here more to
have a good time and have fun.

[ Cellphone rings ]

Steve r.: Hey.

[Bleep]
is that four-wheel?

Is that four-wheel drive?

Hey, are you with us or are you
with them [bleep]damn it?!

We're having a [bleep]
business meeting here.

Whoa, whoa.
You know, you get phone calls --

Show a little respect,
by god!

You get business calls,
too, man, in the middle
of your business.

Okay.
Ready to go back to work.

Narrator:
of the grand central river...

I feel like
you guys are my friends.

But when we are trying to make
a tremendous amount of money

In this gold-mining operation,
we're business partners.

I stayed out there so we
could get out there extra early.

So I was kind of irritated
when you guys didn't show up
when you said you would.

You know, I'm sorry,

Like, if you felt
like I wasn't doing my part.

It would be more helpful
if you, like, believed

And you tried to do it, too, and
we both worked ourselves sick.

Instead of you saying that,
like...

What the [bleep] is that?
Like, work yourself sick?

I think working yourself sick
is important.

the edge needs to operate
really efficiently

With an efficient,
motivated crew

To be able to make the money
that it can make.

And it needs to have
the right people.

I mean, I feel like
I'm the right person to do it.

But maybe I need to have, you
know, other people on the team

That are more experienced
and more motivated.

If I say I'm going to work

Straight with not sleeping
for the next 48 hours,

That is what
I'm going to try to do.

And I may not succeed.

But I always set my...
And then I'm gonna --

And then I'm going to step in
and try to moderate

That decision
because that's ludicrous.

And then I'll fight you.

I'll be like [bleep] you.
I'm the boss."

This is
how we're going to do it.

And then
I'll end up winning.

I set the benchmarks.
I set the benchmarks.

We're going to get


You might set the benchmarks,
but I always win.

You don't win.

You just try --
you just try to drag me down.

Okay, dude [bleep]
you're pissing me off.

Why is emily pissed off?

Whatever. Nothing I'm saying
is unreasonable.

Narrator: back in town...

On the christine rose...

Steve p.: Header driver cleanup
right now.

I just want to see it out
in the daylight.

Look at this.

There's a nice picker.

Look at this.

Steve p.:
You know, we need to make a land
payment in two weeks.

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

It aggravates you a little bit

That the weather keeps us
off the -- from digging.

I like what I see.

I wish to hell
we could've spent

Three or four days
out there, digging.

Narrator:
in the city of anchorage...

Meisterheim:
as far as anybody in town, any
of the other dredgers, you know,

If they come to find out

That scott meisterheim went
to rehab, you know, so be it.

You know, if they want to
belittle me for it,

Then, you know,
I got news for them.

Three-quarters of those [bleep]
go to bars every day, too.

I like to drink
instead of think.

I just -- I'm having a hard time
coping with a lot of the --

A lot of the stress right now
going on in nome.

I've got investors
that want their money,
and they want it now.

I've got bills in nome
that have to be paid.

It means going further in debt.

You know, I've never walked away
from a situation.

Maybe -- maybe
it'll be the first time.

Narrator:
just outside the city of nome...

It's been raining,
and I'm just soaking wet.

Everything I own is soaking wet,
and this sucks.

Narrator: ...deckhand todd allen
ends another day in dirtville.

Allen: ain't no generators.
Ain't no power.

[ Dog barks ]
ain't no running water.

Dirtville, man.

I've never been homeless.

Ever.

Not even remotely close.

And all of a sudden,
I'm stranded in nome.

Living in a tent,

Surrounded by a bunch
of [bleep] people I don't know.

Half of them
are crooked as [bleep]

My tent's been broke into twice.

Scott's off, doing whatever.

I did not know I was getting
into this when I came up here.

I'm at wit's end.

It is what it is.
This is hardcore.

It's hardcore living, man.
It's just...

[ Chuckles ]

[ Groans ]

That's [bleep] nasty.

There's no answer
at the bottom of a bottle.

Man: it ain't dirtville.
It's backhoe alley.

Dude, come on, man.

Oh, come on.
Hang out if you want.

[ Speaks indistinctly ]

What?

No, really.

I-i need a minute here.
Seriously.

All right. I'll leave you alone.
All right, brother.

All right. It's cool.
You all right?

Yeah, man.
I'm good. I'm good.

Hey, you [bleep]
keep it down, man!

[ Laughter, indistinct talking ]
I'm going to bed.

Good night.

Did he take his bottle
with him?

Where is it?

I'll go --
I'll go take it to him.

Where --
where is the bottle?

[Bleep] you.

[ Laughs ]

The truth is, I've not seen
my boys in a long time.

And I was hoping to make
a bunch of money

So I can get back closer
to them.

[ Sniffles ]

But it ain't happening.

So I'm going to go home broke.

Turn the [bleep] thing off, man.

But this is real life, man.
This is my life.

I'm here to fail.

Narrator: with weather
wreaking havoc and gold scarce,

Times are tougher than ever
for the fleet.

If you come aboard,
I've got a ride for you.

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

Steve p.:
Shawn's going to jail.

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

I never promised you
anything!

I never [bleep]
promised you --

Steve p.: Oh, yeah, baby.
Look at this -- the mother lode.

Man:
this is a lot of gold.

Come to papa.

Oh, baby!

Tenhoff: he answered the door
with a loaded .44 magnum.

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