"Okay., We'll melt the bricks so they're not traceable." Jordyn tells Sarah as they walk around TannyHill.

Sarah nods her head, "Yeah."

"We'll take it to the pawnshop...and after that, we'll pay for JJ's restitution." Jordyn suggests.

"How many bars?" Sarah asks the girl.

Jordyn thinks for a moment, "I don't know. It was all muddy. I think it was like 500."

"500?" Sarah asks for confirmation.

Jordyn repeats, "600."

"600 bars of gold?" Sarah asks again.

"I don't know. Could be a thousand. It was all muddy, but it was everywhere. Covering the walls, stacks of it. Four hundred million dollars. It's all there." Jordyn tells her.

Sarah mentions, "Hey, that's crazy!"

"We did it. Now we just have to get it out of there." Jordyn includes as they walk back around.

"Right. So how will we do that?" Sarah nods and then asks.

Jordyn explains the plan, "Okay, so, Pope has a plan...basically takes a pulley system... Kinda little in comparison to 400 million dollars in gold. Think about it..."

"Hey." Ward greets the two as they come face to face with him.

"Hey." Jordyn says.

Sarah looks freaked out for a second, "Hi!"

"What are you two plotting?" Ward asks curiously.

Jordyn hesitates, "Uh... The... usual stuff."

"World domination." Sarah lies.

"That's my girl, always aiming high. It's gonna have to wait a day, though, 'cause I'm takin' this kid fishin' tomorrow morning. First light. Just you and me." Ward informs the two more specifically Jordyn.

"No, she can't tomorrow." Sarah quickly says.

Ward looks at the girl, "Why not?"

"Well, because we have plans." Sarah tells him and Jordyn nods.

"Oh, really? What plans are those? Sit by the pool all day?" Ward asks wanting to know more.

"No." Sarah answers.

"Look, that boat needs a first mate, and you need to start earning your keep around here, all right?" Ward says grabbing Jordyn's shoulder.

Sarah looks at her girlfriend who looks a little freaked out, "Dad."

"What? Sweetie, I'm kidding. She's new to the family. I wanna take her fishing. All right?" Ward jokes.

"Okay." Sarah agrees.

Ward looks at Jordyn who nods, "Yeah? All right It's gonna be good."

"You wanna help?" Jordyn asks Pope who's busy staring at Kie.

Pope turns his attention back, "Yeah."

"Great." Jordyn tells him.

"We get this boat winch out, bring it to the basement, drill into the floor. We lower you down and get as much as we can. And, uh... this time we don't drop you." Pope explains as they work on the thingy.

Jordyn nods, "That'd be great."

"Kie! This better work. We can't pawn this if there's a giant wheat symbol on it." JJ says dropping the gold in front of the girl.
