Original subtitles

What we have accomplished this season is unbelievable.

Every season's hard, but this is the hardest season

I've ever experienced.

we will remember this year,

And there'll be more tears shed,

But there'll be joy

Because we went through it together.

You can measure success on the amount of gold,

The amount of money you make.

But, in the end, it's really about the people

That are closest to you.

It's about family, it's about friends.

The whole last bucket, buddy.

- last bucket!

there she goes! Come on!

good job, guys. Good job.

We did it. We're out of here.

Done.

- all right. Hey, case, would you go and...? -Yeah.

- good, dave. - yeah!

Yeah!

at lynx creek,

Out of ground and with less than a week to go...

morning, guys.

...Team turin needs 31 ounces

To reach its million-dollar dream.

I know we talked about going to find

Some more ground, but we're out of options.

we got to find some ground. I know everybody's tired,

Want to go home and see family,

But let's finish this strong.

- yeah. - we're still here

With our boots on, dave.

What if we look at the map,

Kind of figure this out all together?

I mean, we've all been here a while.

All we need is one cut.

If there's gold in there, maybe it was overlooked.

we haven't pulled 30 ounces a week yet here in arizona.

so we've got three excavators.

Let's split up. Divide and conquer,

See if we can find some ground.

It's been a long year, and, uh, I really want to hit

A million-dollar season,

And it's not just for the million dollars.

It's for the crew, it's for jesse and his family.

Jesse's wife, rhenda, is coming.

So, right now, we're focused,

And I think we're going to do it.

It's either go big or go home.

four months ago.

welcome to bobs creek.

high in the colorado rockies,

Team turin kicked off its third mining season.

We're onto something special this year.

they faced a constant battle...

Come on, dig!

...With the ground...

Whatever it takes.

...And the local community.

Whatever we do is going to be wrong.

Dang it!

then tragedy struck.

he did not.

first, dave's dad.

Then, their brother in arms, jesse goins.

is he okay?

oh, my god.

but the team fought back.

Let's hit it.

show me the gold, buddy. - whoo!

and hit big gold to keep a promise.

this season's for jesse.

We get the privilege to give rhenda and her family

The gold that jesse earned.

jesse!

after smashing their 400-ounce target,

Dave upped the ante.

What if we turned it into a million-dollar season?

in the north, he hunted for their future.

I think we're in virgin ground.

and in arizona...

This is where team turin was born, right here in lynx creek.

...The team set its sights on 100 more ounces.

We're on our way to a million-dollar season, and it starts right now.

but last week...

I'm seeing three colors in here.

...They ran out of ground...

our living depends on this!

*bleep* me!

...And failed to hit their weekly gold target.

Well, I hate to tell you this, but we got 24.35.

now, with just four days left of the season...

we kind of know the ground.

...Team turin must strike one last pot of gold,

Or fail to hit their million-dollar goal.

well, I was thinking we go up this one.

okay.

I'm hoping that we've missed that

Because there's not a lot of volume there.

So, why don't you and I head up there?

What do you, guys, think?

I think we should go more upstream.

-Like, right in the middle? -Yeah.

It's the most tributaries, you know, that we never got to really go all the way up.

so we'll go on up, give it a look.

- all right. -What do you think, case?

You know what? It's a gamble,

But the headwaters up here by this dam,

Honestly, there's been so many stories I've read and seen

About big gold still left below that fain dam. Right here.

I don't know, case. This has been dredged.

- what do you think? -I'm with you, case.

The way I'm looking at it, dave,

Is if you're going to hit here,

They're going to hit here, well, we got to go up.

all right, give it a try.

So, we got three spots. This is our last chance.

- let's get it. - let's get it.

all in!

This is it. We don't hit it,

You know, it's kind of a failure.

If we do hit it, it's going to be awesome.

You know, we're doing this not just for ourselves, but for jesse's family.

rhenda's coming in, jesse's wife,

And we want to give her that gold that jesse's earned this season.

Ground is limited here.

We mined a good bit here in the first season,

We've been hammering it. So, uh...

This is our last-ditch effort.

two extra teams prospecting?

That's a win-win. I don't give a *bleep* who finds it.

Clock's ticking.

We didn't just come here to strike out.

with five miles of lynx creek to prospect,

Team turin must find eight ounces a day

To hit their target.

yeah, boy, let's get it!

that's it, let's go!

we need one more cut to hit our gold!

Hopefully, we can find one with 31 ounces.

All I know is, it's time to get it.

following kc's hunch,

He and jason head west to a spot downstream of the fain lake dam,

An area heavily mined by the old-timers,

But the site of recent monsoon flooding.

when you look down and see them big-ass boulders,

It justifies the pan, you know?

oh, yeah. Good stuff.

oh, it sure looks good down here.

There's a lot of big rocks,

There's been a lot of high energy coming through.

man, these are some big *bleep* boulders.

And you know what they say, big boulders equal big gold.

kc's theory?

Heavy rainfall and monsoons

Caused the fain lake dam to breach.

The resulting flash floods

Carried tons of gold-rich material

Down the valley.

If he's right,

The boulder field could be hiding

A high-grade cache of gold.

dave thinks we're crazy

For wanting to go up by the dam.

In this state, we have massive flash floods.

My though is, it's churned up all that stuff the dredge missed,

Deposited it down, and hopefully that works out.

Bottom line, we don't hit that,

Then coming out here was just a waste of time.

I really want to hit that million-dollar season.

two miles east.

This actually looks like a pretty good spot, man,

Where the bend is and everything.

in the hope of uncovering a paystreak,

Chris and nathan prospect up a half-mile gully

Next to jesse's cut,

Some of this season's most profitable lynx creek ground.

there's definitely been some erosion.

-Yeah. - due to the water.

It's coming down,

This water is eroding and it's bringing gold with it.

So we're going to scratch below that sand and get under the gravel

And see what we've got.

that one there is the very bottom.

after two hours of searching...

All right, nate. That's good.

...Nathan and chris

Pick what looks like ancient river gravels.

- there's only bed. - one last test, nate.

This the deepest stuff?

I feel like I *bleep* up.

I don't want to go out empty-handed.

If this pan doesn't have...

Gets us gold in about 30, 40 colors,

I hope that dave and juan

Or kc and jason found something.

not one flake.

There's one little flake.

just one flake, nate.

I mean, what the *bleep*.

I'll call dave.

Hey, dave, you got a copy?

Go ahead, nate.

Hi, buddy. This ain't worth a damn, dude.

All right. Well, this is it.

Hey, juan, that was nate. They got nothing.

uh... It's up to me and you.

Hopefully, jason and kc find something.

So see if there's any gold living down there.

half a mile further east from nate and chris' prospect,

Dave and juan investigate a small creek close to kc's cut,

Where, two years ago, team turin hit it big.

Traditionally, this is where we've been finding

The gold here at lynx creek.

It's in these little tributaries.

I believe this one was overlooked

Because it's pretty small.

But, really, all I need is 31 ounces.

hey, juan, hang on a minute.

I see that false bedrock.

I'm going to jump down in there and grab a sample

Real quick. Just hang on.

So, here's what I'm looking at.

Here's our false bedrock.

This is perfect. Now look where it dives down here.

This is definitely a pocket right here.

The gold doesn't penetrate this.

This is where the gold lives.

we need this to have gold in it, dave.

We're running out of days and we're running out of options.

So, what's in there, dave?

moment of truth.

Hey, look at that.

Right here, it's got a tiny little piece.

There's one, two, three.

there's four.

*bleep*.

Same thing, four pieces of gold.

it's not enough.

that ain't going to make it.

*bleep*. That's a bust.

All along. Here, you take this.

-Well, I'll... I'll poke ground a little more. -All right.

the rest of the team have struck out.

what do you say we pan at this little pond?

now, team turin's million-dollar season

Rests solely on kc's hunch, near the fain lake dam.

here, ready? See what you get.

- you get the next one. -All right.

For me, personally, it's really important that we succeed.

We could've packed up from colorado.

We could've just said, "you know what?

We hit our goal," and gone home.

But we took this risk, coming here to lynx creek, so...

You know what? You don't want to feel

Like you just spent all this extra money and time

Away from families for nothing.

So, yeah, we need to hit it.

this has got a lot of clay, morgan.

there'll probably be some good gold

-In that *bleep*. - might be, huh?

now I'm starting to... We're screwed.

coming up...

look at that *bleep* in my bucket, dude.

...Team turin prospects into overtime.

holy *bleep*, jason!

God bless america.

and dave doubles down.

Got two rock trucks hauling.

all right. Here we go, boys!

but will their golden fantasy...

last run of it, man.

Bit excited to see what we're going to get.

Hopefully, we hit it.

...Become a million-dollar reality?

Okay, here we go.

here we go.

are you serious?

Come on in, brother. Let's see what we get.

deep into the final days of the season

-At lynx creek... -Miners take risks every day.

and right now, I find myself at a boulder patch,

Taking a big-ass risk moving big-ass boulders,

Hoping for some big-ass gold.

...Jason and kc follow a hunch,

A gamble they hope leads them

To their first million-dollar season.

old-timers may have come through here

With dredges, but one thing about lynx creek

Is that you get massive amounts of flash-flood water.

in 2018, monsoon rains breached the fain dam,

Ripping through the western edge

Of lynx creek.

Kc's pinning team turin's last hope on this deluge

Washing untouched gold from the canyon

And depositing it here, in the boulder field.

Fifteen-foot wall of water come through these canyons,

It could turn everything up, put a lot of gold right back where they took it out.

well, that is interesting.

Look at that *bleep* in my bucket, dude.

that's something new. I've never seen that.

do we want to fill a gold pan?

There's a lot of clay in this.

typically in lynx creek,

You dig down, you're going to wind up hitting a... A tan material.

this is crazy right here.

This is a makeup bed.

I've not seen here in lynx creek,

In any of the tributaries.

no, but that doesn't mean *bleep*.

The one thing we do know for sure

Is we're only a pan away from finding out what's here.

Last sample, man.

This is, literally, like the old-timers right here,

Crouched down next to a pond.

yep, trying to find their fortune.

holy *bleep*, jason!

God bless america.

That ought to pay some bills.

- we're in business! - holy *bleep*.

Ha! Yeah!

you can see it from there. - whoo!

Dude, you could see that *bleep* from space, bro!

It's a hell of a pan. Oh, my god. Look at this thing.

that's almost chunky, like nuggets, these flakes.

yeah! That's what I'm talking about! Dude!

- hello? - hey, dave, how's it going?

terrible. I've got nothing, jason.

Give me some good news.

kc stood up from this one today, dave.

-And what did you say? -It's the best pan I've ever panned, dave.

-Most gold ever. - all right! Good job, jason!

Hey, kc found some gold!

-Yeah, buddy! -Nice! Nice.

That's the news I was looking for, man.

It's just, like, "yes!

Finally, something's going our way!"

We're going to finish strong.

as jason clears overburden...

'sup, dave?

...Dave arrives to inspect the new cut.

it's a hell of a pan.

Look at that.

Not only is it good particle size,

There's a bunch of it in there!

so, with that being said, dave,

The amount of volume that's here?

One truck will not have it down to the plant

By the end of the week.

We can't leave *bleep* like that.

no. Not a chance.

I'll see if I can get another rock truck.

-Let's get this paydirt out of here, get it to the plant. -That sounds good.

All right. Let's get kc in here, get started.

-All right. -That's a hell of a pan, though.

Isn't it?

This really defies logic.

I don't see plaster ground like this.

I mean, this has been dredged 120 years ago,

And now, all of a sudden, you've got pans like that?

I'm not leaving this pay here. We're done at the end of the week,

We've got to get this pay to the wash plant.

So I've got to go find a rock truck.

now, with over an acre of ground to mine

In just four days, the race is on to open the new cut.

I know we always talk about the last push last

Of the season, but this is the first time

That we've been sitting on this type of gold.

I wouldn't be able to sleep at night

If I knew we left this sort of stuff in the hole.

go ahead, jay.

it's got good pay.

We'll take it.

two nights ago, we thought we were done.

We're on the brink to accomplish what we set out to do.

It's going to be a tough next few days,

-But you know what? I think it's going to be worth it. - yeah.

We just happened to be right place,

-Right time when we were around those bends. -With any luck,

This'll make our season right here

And make our fortune.

a new day dawns at lynx creek.

you know, we got us a fight up there.

You know, I know they're working hard.

We're not getting much done. We're going to speed up.

I'm not leaving here until it's all gone,

Every bit of that gold is gone.

with the potential of 12,000 tons of pay

To run from the lake in just three days...

Where is dave?

He's gone?

jesse morgan. You got a copy?

Yes, sir, I do.

coming in.

Coming in. I've got a 30-tonner coming in.

...Dave secured a second rock truck

From the neighboring quarry.

We got to get all that pay back to the wash plant.

ten-four, dave.

I'll see you when you get in here.

Come on out, kc, I see you, buddy.

Got two rock trucks hauling.

Now we're going to be able to get some darn move.

all right, big boy. Keep on rolling.

dave is now a haul truck driver.

We got this truck to get some pay down to that wash plant.

we got more material to haul, boys!

Get that one faster.

All right.

Here we go, boys!

We're going to turn the plant up and put a little rock and roll

Across the finish line.

some more pay, chris.

you keep bringing it, we'll keep running it. Let's go.

Good job.

You know, seeing dave in a haul truck is pretty freaking funny, you know?

He's a hell of a leader.

He don't give a *bleep* what he does as long as

We can get gold and the plants stay running.

Forget it, morgan! You're not going to pass me.

hey, dave.

You're not first, you're last.

I'm second place in the two-truck race?

- yeah.

thirty-one ounces.

Now we've got to pull this weight

To hit our 100 ounces here in arizona.

Rhenda's coming into town.

I won't be able to look her in her eyes

If we don't have that million-dollar season.

might be shutting down here in a minute.

They're saying the ground looks good,

But, you know, I've heard that about 352 times this year.

So... Let's hope it's in the box.

shut it down!

-Turn the water off! -Dave.

-Dave, dave, dave. -Yeah, look at that. Look at that, dave.

- holy *bleep*. - look at that!

- damn, nathan. -Holy *bleep*, look at this!

oh, *bleep*. No kidding. Look at that.

oh!

-Whoo! - yeah!

Yeah! Gold! Gold, gold!

yeah!

yeah!

let's see it.

kc, care to look?

Whoo!

that's pretty damn good.

miner! Oh!

yeah!

sancho, you pretty happy with that one?

That takes a *bleep* ton of stress off, bro.

- off of... -Whoo!

whoo!

Box looks great. I hadn't seen this yet at lynx creek.

this is exactly what we needed.

to be able to see this at the end,

-Are you kidding me? - we're not at the end yet, my friend.

- that's a lot of gold.

You know, when you walk up to the sluice box,

You never know what you're going to see and...

It's times like these when you see it just loaded with gold,

It makes it all worthwhile.

let there be light.

You can tell when we're all a little shocked

'cause we're a little quieter.

Seeing a box like that, it's not...

Man, it really just makes you want to get up and get to work.

I mean, there's gold everywhere.

-I mean, like, right here... - doggone it, I hate it when that happens.

-I hate it when gold's everywhere. -Yeah, I know.

it's cut.

It could take us to the end. It could take us right to our goal.

at lynx creek, in the newly-discovered lake cut...

put this in, jason.

I mean, this is too much of it.

...Team turin run some of their richest dirt yet.

Well, my thing is I don't want to leave any pay here.

we're going to run as much as we can,

As fast as we can.

We ain't stopping until the lynx creek it's a 100% done.

There'll be no question of mine.

Can we go back? Hell no, we can't go back!

It's all gone!

hey, chris, I've got a lot of pay coming in.

with kc and juan

Delivering pay in two trucks...

we're going to have pay coming in to us now.

We're going to start taking things up.

...It's on chris and nathan

To keep the roach fully fed.

Oh, well. It'll be worth it.

Yeah, yeah, chris, that's the spirit.

Get in there, nate.

at the gold room...

Jesse's wife, rhenda...

-Hi, rhenda. -Hey, guys.

-Thanks for coming. -Yeah, thanks for...

...Arrives from montana

For the end-of-the-season cleanup.

oh, I know.

it's real important for dave and I

To have rhenda come.

I feel really close to her because of jesse

And all the stories he shared,

And I feel like I know her pretty well.

It's a celebration of their gold,

And it's also really a celebration for jesse.

This tent, this is where jesse started with us.

yeah, it all started here.

yeah. Old blue eyes.

We were hoping you could help shelly with the last gold weigh.

- oh, yeah! -We'll give you the privilege of mining some gold.

-Yeah. -Yeah, definitely. How fun.

we hope we saved the best for the last.

You're our good-luck charm! Okay, see you later.

All right.

the reason I know how to do all this

-Is because jesse showed me, you know? - oh, really?

All right.

rhenda will be collecting jesse's 5% share

Of the gold for the entire season.

I'll tell you what. Dave made his life...

Not just a year, not just a moment.

He made his life when he called him

And asked him if he wanted to be his gold-cleanup guy.

-And he took so much pride... - he did.

...In getting it so clean.

He was very proud of his gold cleanouts.

it's really important for me to be here to finish jesse's job.

He would be very proud of me being here

And wanting to clean out the gold.

I would, probably, honestly, surprise him.

Ooh, look how pretty that is.

- so pretty. - wow.

if there was a rainbow,

At the end of it, would probably be this cut.

That's how good it is.

We're done in a matter of hours.

with 31 ounces of gold needed to make

Their million-dollar gold...

Last final push.

Last day running, we want to make sure

That we run all that cut,

We don't want to leave any of it here.

...Team turin runs the roach hard one last time.

If they keep running at 130 yards an hour,

They should process every last scrap of lake-cut dirt.

couple days and we get to head back east, man.

yeah, we'll make it home before your anniversary, buddy.

We'll make your wife very happy.

I know I'm ready to see my wife and kids.

That's for sure, man.

*bleep*

*bleep* please stop. Please stop. Please stop.

shut it down! Shut it down, chris!

God almighty! *bleep*

*bleep*

Doggone it!

we've got to kill the pump.

Best gold we've been on ever as team turin...

Washing down the hill.

It's not in our sluice box, is it?

*bleep*

we were that close, man. This damn close.

well, let's hurry up and get it done, then.

This is something that happens.

The material's real abrasive in the pipe.

this wore the welds out. No good.

This is the last day. We got to finish up tonight,

We'll get all this gold in the box, and call this creek done.

it's just right where the welds are.

It wore through on the bottom, and that started it all out.

the coarse arizona dirt

Has worn away the weld that secures the slurry pipe to the roach.

I'm just going to clean it up,

Slip it back in. We'll slip it in a little further and I'll weld the whole thing.

All right. So, how long do you think it will take?

It's going to take me about an hour.

-Yeah. -All right.

The longer we stay here and talk about it,

The more gold we're losing.

-Okay. - let's get to it, huh?

all right.

with just hours of the season remaining,

Nathan must grind down rough edges of the outlet.

little more. Little more. Little more.

there it goes.

- that's in. - yeah.

ready for juan to weld the water-tight seal

Between the pipe and the roach.

We're on the best cut team turin's ever seen.

That lake cut is paying.

now we're going to lose an hour or two.

Hopefully, we can make up ground,

Get some more of that lake cut through the plant

And finish the season strong.

almost done. Just the bottom left to do.

You know, the good thing about having two mechanics here is,

You know, we'll get things done real quick,

So it helps out quite a bit.

- there it is. - yeah, dude.

that's the last of it. We got it all welded back in place.

We should be good to go.

-Let's get it fired back up! - let's do this.

yeah. Lining up!

just one hour later,

The roach is ready to fire up for the final time this season.

-Nate, no leaks. - hey, look at that!

- here we go. -All right, nate.

-You ready, big boy? - all right, pour off some rocks!

All right, boys, we're going to fire back up, rock and rolling!

Another good job, you two.

we're back on track to a million-dollar season.

Can't wait to get there. Thirty-one ounces, here we come, baby!

Hey, dave, we are back up and running.

way to go, buddy! Whoo!

We ain't going to stop right now,

We're almost there. It's the home stretch.

in arizona...

I know this is your baby,

But it's all going to be gone.

It's all over here about lynx creek next season.

You understand me, son?

Closing the chapter in this story

And that's the end of it.

...Team turin races to run the last of the lake cut.

Okay, brother, this is my last load. You're next.

go get it, juan!

boy, juan, you're making that haul truck shine, that's for sure.

that's what I do, baby. That's what I do.

Jason's about out of pay. He feels like he got every little bit

Out of that lake cut.

Now it's up to these guys to run it.

All right, guys. Here it is. Last load of the season.

- for me anyways. -Proud of you, kc.

-Way to go. -One team, one dream, brother.

we worked our asses off, and guess what?

Now it's time to go home to family.

I always believed in this place, no matter how many people told me

The old-timers got it. I just had to believe that.

It wasn't here, I'd be looking like *bleep* right now.

all right, juan. This right here,

This is the last bucket from the lake cut, brother.

Take it down to them boys and let's get it through the plant, senor.

thank you, sanchez.

I'm taking it over there, bud. Whoo! We made it. We're here.

The end, baby.

Coming in with a wise load of pay, guys.

Ride on, ride on, juan.

Bring it to me and I'll put it all in.

with the sun setting on their last day...

Yeah! Lynx creek is going to be done!

...The end is finally in sight.

Hey, juan, I really appreciate you stepping up,

Joining us at the end of the season, man.

I appreciate you guys allowing me to come out and be part of it.

I feel honored and privileged to be here,

And I'm happy that we were able to come together as a team

And finish the season right.

Juan just delivered the last bit of the lake cut,

And the guys on the front end, they're done.

my job's done here.

It's been a rough *bleep* year, man.

We have fought so much.

We've lost so much too.

I mean, our friend, our brother, dave's dad.

That's what that million dollars really represent,

It's all that struggle we went through.

I'm full on burnt out.

I'm worn out, we're all tired of this *bleep*.

Whatever it takes, from here on now,

That's what we're going to do.

Running in the night? *bleep* it. Let's do it.

What we have accomplished this season is unbelievable.

That's about it.

With all the pay we got, running out.

loud and free, chris.

The last couple scoops.

Despite all the pain and the heartache,

The trials and tribulations

That this team has went through,

We finished strong.

come on, kc! Get it moving!

Last run of it, man.

Pretty excited to see what we're going to get.

Hopefully, we hit it.

The whole last bucket, buddy.

last bucket!

There she goes! Come on!

- chris! - good job, guys.

-That's awesome. - good job.

We did it. We're out of pay. Done.

all right. Hey, case, would you go and shut the pump off?

Oh, yeah!

shut this *bleep* down!

There we go! There we go! There we go! There we go!

this is going to change my life forever.

But, right now, this team current,

We got to finish this thing up,

Get this gold cleaned up, and see where the hell we're at.

team turin's last wish,

The lake cute delivers the 31 ounces

They need to break the million-dollar barrier.

Hey, we got some particle size.

oh, we got some big *bleep* - look at this.

-Ooh-wee! - it sure is pretty.

oh, you, guys!

Look at this.

-It's starting to clean out here. - oh, yeah. Yeah.

- holy cow. - looks good, juan. Don't it?

- it's all down there. - oh, my god. Look at that, dude.

Look at that! Lynx creek paid us again, boys!

Yeah. It's good.

the gold, I love the gold.

But we've been through some tough times this year,

And I just want to let you know that I couldn't have gone through it

With a better group of guys.

I lost my dad and I lost a good friend.

But what we did is we put our boots back on,

We went back to work.

And then I started feeling whole again

Because I had you, guys.

I had you, guys, alongside of me, and you picked me up.

And this is the fruit of our labor.

And I just feel like,

You know, the gold's great, million-dollar season,

All that stuff, but it don't mean *bleep*.

We lost a good friend and...

And it's been well-enough for me

Because I never had a chance to *bleep* mourn and...

And weep for my dad and jesse,

Because I was too busy doing this.

And I knew it was going to be this way at the end

Because, sometimes, when you lead, it sucks,

Because you don't have time for yourself.

And...

*bleep* was hard, pulling jesse back out of that...

I wanted to breathe life into him so bad,

And I couldn't do it.

And it was like, we had to push on,

We had to put our boots on every day and go back to work,

And it was just hard, you guys.

And this is the first time I've really been able to deal with it.

I mean, I love the gold and that's what we do, you guys,

But I wish my dad and jesse were here to see it.

-They are. -They are.

-They are, brother. -They're right here.

Why do you think we got all this gold?

For jesse and his family.

- they were helping it all the way. - yeah.

that's our motivation this year, you know? We got...

We put our boots on, we got to work.

-We did... We did this for each other. - we did.

We did this for jesse. For his family.

jesse might have passed away in colorado,

But I think we just laid him to rest with that box right there.

It's a hell of a box, you, guys.

I love you, guys. To jesse goins.

jesse!

and jim turin.

-Whoo! - all in!

Whoo! Let's get... Cleaned up, boys.

do it, huh?

We exceeded my expectations.

Be a lot of gold tomorrow

And a lot of tears, I guarantee it.

Guys, remember the last time we had thanksgiving dinner together here?

- yeah. - yeah.

as team turin's toughest ever mining season draws to a close...

yeah, and here we are again, in lynx creek.

And we're about to go home. Hallelujah.

...Thoughts turn to family.

every time I come home,

Doesn't matter if there's snow on the ground or not,

My kids come running out.

They hear that truck coming down the driveway

And they get excited, man.

the neighbors all go outside when I get home,

"*bleep*, he's back!"

- yeah!

three seasons ago...

-How you doing? - it's nathan? It's good to meet you.

...Team turin was forged here, in lynx creek.

A team.

dave transformed a crew of roughnecks...

We all make mistakes, but this one's going to cost.

come on, baby. Yeah!

...Into lost-mine heroes.

I'm really proud of you, guys. Good job.

after three months of struggle in the rocky mountains of colorado...

- whoa, whoa, whoa! - ...Team turin gambled...

- let's go. ...Over $800,000 in gold...

whoo!

...To return to the desert on a mission to break

The coveted million-dollar barrier.

all in!

now, with jesse's widow, rhenda,

On site to collect his share of the winnings...

- it's so hard, so bittersweet. - I know.

-We're going to get there. - ...It's time to see if team turin's bet

Has paid out.

well, I think the guys are getting pretty anxious.

-Let's get down there and... -I'll bet they are.

...Give them the news.

No matter what we get from that cut,

The north cut, it's going to take every one of those cuts

-To get us to our goal. - yeah.

Here's dave!

time to find out now. Isn't it, boys?

- rhenda, how you doing? -Hi, guys.

- good seeing you. -How you doing, rhenda?

That's pretty impressive.

well, let's weigh it up. Judgment day, huh?

-This is it, guys. - this is it. Final weigh.

I'm proud of what we've accomplished, but...

To hell with the million-dollar season.

- there you go. - my success

Was this family, and I love everybody around this table,

And thank you for all your hard work this year.

All right.

- whoa. Whoa. - oh, my god.

Colorado. One hundred.

-Colorado... - two hundred.

Two hundred. Three hundred.

Four hundred.

And 26.

that's great.

That's what we had up till todays' cleanup.

sixty-nine ounces, arizona.

oh, my god.

Are you serious?

-So, we need 31, right? - yeah.

okay, here we go. Shelly, you call the numbers.

Big money, no whammy. Let's do it.

- seventy. -Seventy-three.

Come on.

eighty.

Eighty-two. Eighty-three. Eighty-four.

Ninety. 105.

A hundred and seventy-four ounces out of arizona.

that puts us at 600.95 ounces.

Pretty amazing, guys.

Unbelievable what we accomplished this season.

Six hundred point nine-five.

It's way over a million-dollar season, guys. Good job.

this season's haul is worth more than $1,140,000.

I'm excited, I'm proud, I'm impressed.

But I'm so relieved that we didn't just hit our goal, we went over it.

all that remains now is to share the spoils.

This is your guys' gold.

from their contribution to this season,

Each crew member takes home a 5% share of the gold.

So, mr. Juan.

- thank you, sir. - thank you.

We wouldn't be able to do it without you, buddy.

- thank you, juan. Everything you did. - these guys are good.

Little over 600 ounces, that's quite the achievement for six guys.

Just a lean, mean crew.

mr. Christopher.

Thank you for all the hard work.

You did it, man.

Although it came with a great loss...

It does take a bigger step

To paying off my father's house. That makes me proud.

It's probably the happiest I've been all season.

Casey morgan.

- yes, sir. - thanks for getting us here.

thanks for coming.

I feel redeemed.

I feel like a lot of people told me I was full of shit

About lynx creek,

That there wouldn't be a lot of gold left, and they were wrong.

Proof's in the pudding, man.

It's in the box. And we've done it.

- nate. - yeah!

keep that plant running.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

This season's been such a struggle.

It's been hard on us all.

It's an emotional rollercoaster,

And I'm ready to see a flat road

Instead of ups and downs.

this is my son's future.

For college, for whatever he needs.

mr. Jason. Your arizona gold.

-Thank you. - and colorado gold.

Thank you.

hell of a job.

This gold represents heartache, struggle, brotherhood.

Jesse, jim turin.

It's team turin, all wrapped up right here.

It's our brotherhood.

And now, rhenda...

We miss jesse. He was so much a part of all of our lives,

And I feel like he made us better people.

on behalf of all of us, to you and your family,

There's your arizona gold, colorado gold.

And we call this "jesse's last cut."

-Thanks, guys. - take it, rhenda.

You have no idea how much this means to me,

And how much it would've meant to jess.

I just wish he could've been here.

I just want to say...

Thanks for letting me be here

And being a part of this last cleanout.

- to jess. - to jesse.

- jesse! - jesse.

- all right. Get your asses out of here. - yeah!

Got to go home and see your families!

come here.

-Oh, yes. I'm going to miss you, guys. -All right.

you got a long ways to go. Go to your families. See your families!

safe travel, morgan.

- safe travels, dave. - all right, now y'all get out of here!

safe travels.

In the off season, we'll relax for a while,

But then we start dreaming about gold again.

And I feel like we'll find something.

with this group of guys,

Hell, I'll go mine mars if it's open.

I'll go stake some claims tomorrow.

With this group of guys, the sky is the limit.
