    The overseer points a gun at Rick and demands answers about the blue diamond. Rick feigns confusion, making the guards think he is brain-damaged. When they lift him, Rick's golden eyes activate and scan the overseer's watch, weapon, and a stone.

  2. 00:47: A Plot Overheard in Dirt

    Damian brags about his four-million-dollar stone and warns Victoria she will lose her mine and board seat on the next round. Victoria instructs her appraiser to deliver a win. The appraiser claims an unpolished rock contains high-grade tanzanite.

How Episode 2 Ends
