Narrator: RICK NESS HAS SHUT DOWN HIS OPERATION
AFTER MINING EVERY YARD OF PAY ON HIS CLAIM
THAT'S NOT LOCKED IN ICE.
HELLO, ALL.
HE'S ABOUT TO FIND OUT IF HE'S HIT HIS TARGET
AND MINED ENOUGH GOLD TO PAY HIS CREW.
Rick: I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK RIGHT NOW
'CAUSE, YOU KNOW, WHAT WE GOT RIGHT NOW IS WHAT WE'VE GOT.
WE RAN EVERY LAST [BLEEP]
CRUMB OF DIRT WE COULD OUT OF THERE.
THE REST IS FROZEN.
I THINK WE'VE GOT IT.
WE'VE ALL WORKED TOO HARD NOT TO.
YOU KNOW, WE'VE PUT IN THE TIME.
WE SHOULD HAVE IT.
Narrator: TO HIT IS 1,000-OUNCE, $1.2-MILLION SEASON GOAL,
RICK NEEDS THIS GOLD PAN TO HOLD AT LEAST 60 OUNCES.
WE'RE SO CLOSE.
YEAH. LET'S WEIGH IT UP.
10, 15, 20...
30...
33.13.
[BLEEP] [BLEEP]
-WOW. -SHORT.
Narrator: JUST $40,000.
WHAT ARE WE, 27 OUNCES SHORT?
-27 OUNCES. -OH, MAN.
[BLEEP] RIGHT OFF. UNREAL.
AHHHH. YEAH, I DON'T KNOW.
I WAS CONFIDENT ALL [BLEEP] YEAR WE WERE GONNA MAKE THIS,
AND I'VE BEEN TELLING YOU GUYS ALL YEAR WE WERE GONNA DO IT.
IT'S KIND OF A KICK IN THE STOMACH FOR ALL OF US.
YOU KNOW, WE WERE ALL ANTICIPATING GOING HOME AND...
I THINK WE ALL WANT TO GO HOME AFTER HITTING OUR GOAL,
BUT, YOU KNOW, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO RIGHT NOW?
HEY, I'M NOT A QUITTER.
LET'S GET THIS DONE.
LET'S BE SUCCESSFUL.
WE DIDN'T COME UP HERE TO BE LOSERS.
EXACTLY.
I AIN'T NO [BLEEP] LOSER.
WELL, A LITTLE BIT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WE'RE TOO CLOSE. WE CAN'T ACCEPT THIS.
THERE'S GOT TO BE 27 OUNCES DOWN THERE SOMEWHERE.
YEAH, MAN. I WANT TO DO SOMETHING,
BUT...WHAT CAN WE DO?
WE'LL FIND SOMETHING.
AS LONG AS THE SUN'S STILL IN THE SKY
FOR A FEW HOURS A DAY,
LET'S JUST [BLEEP] GO FIND IT,
NO MATTER WHERE IT IS -- TAILINGS,
[BLEEP] BOTTOM OF THE JIG... -OH, YEAH.
...JUST START SCRAPING [BLEEP] EVERYTHING TOGETHER,
AND WE'LL TRY AND COME UP WITH A PLAN.
IT'S TIME FOR EXTRA INNINGS, I GUESS, RIGHT?
[BLEEP] RIGHT, OVERTIME.
EVERYBODY GOT A LITTLE BIT LEFT IN THE GAS TANK,
A LITTLE BIT MORE TO GIVE?
I'M NOT LEAVING UNTIL WE TRY, MAN.
-WE ALL DO. -I'M IN.
THAT'S ALL I NEED TO [BLEEP] HEAR.
WE'RE ALL HERE FOR ANOTHER 27 OUNCES?
-YEAH. -[BLEEP] YEAH.
[ Laughing ] [BLEEP] YEAH. LET'S DO IT.
-RIGHT. -ON THREE...
Rick: ...ONE, TWO, THREE.
All: WEIGH!
