Tony revives an antique device to operate the trommel at Paradise Hill for rock washing. Meanwhile, a member of Parker's team experiences a breakdown attempting to keep up with the intense speed.

Gage:
“Ring of Fire… Married to the Gold”
Sharon:
“Brian’s “Go Go Gatchet Fix” looked cool at night! Missed the funny clips that didn’t make the cut, especially when Wayne, our head mechanic and voice of reason, wasn’t in the loop about Brian and the boys’ plans.
Our on-site safety posters have a golden rule: “When unsure, ask yourself: ‘What would Wayne do?”
Jason:
“ Humm, watching myself on episode 16, well there was a lot of Déjà vu stuff happening, it’s almost like I’ve been there!”
“Do I sound like that?”
“Ripped some pretty loud farts that day in the excavator, they were definitely flammable” (when on site being filmed, one forgets they have a mic on).
Lane:
“Glad RAW TV camera guys didn’t see me slip down the back of the pay pile”
