Previously, on Ice...
You ungrateful fucking piece of shit!
Jesus...
My name is Pieter Van de Bruin.
Yes, I know who you are.
I lose something, you lose something.
What the hell's he doing here, Cam?
He just heard we were having a rough time,
and he offered to help.
We don't need his help.
I'm so fucking sick and tired
- of running interference for you. - Yeah?
You're so good at it, Jakey.
This shit ends now! Shameful!
This thing that we're doing,
I'm not doing it anymore.
I'm Nick.
Ava.
He's a mortician.
They call him "The Baker."
If Avi went missing,
and The Baker had his watch...
do the math.
I am getting a search warrant for The Baker's oven.
I am going to sift through every bit of ash,
every bone fragment,
and I am going to find Avi's DNA in there.
"I, Isaac Green, being of sound mind and body,"
do hereby declare this to be my last will and testament.
I revoke from this day on
all previously written wills or verbal promises made by me,
and I direct my executors to pay any and all of my debts
from the assets I leave behind
so that no man can say
that I did not meet my legal and moral obligations.
To my son and daughter-in-law, Jake and Ava,
I entrust my estate,
the home where I raised my two sons,
"paid for and mortgage-free."
"Green & Green Diamond Company"
shall be divided equally among the following:
My sons, Freddy and Jake,
are each entitled to 25% percent of the business.
Sorry, that's Freddy with an "F"?
Your father loved you, kid.
"25% will also go to my beloved baby sister, Sarah..."
"And 25% to my granddaughter, Willow,"
to be held in trust by her mother, Ava,
"until Willow is 21 years of age."
Oh, my God.
"I additionally leave a family heirloom
that is of special significance to me."
The Holocaust diamond.
"36 carats, emerald cut,"
and of priceless sentimental value...
"the foundation of my family's business."
Wha...
I'm sorry, you actually have that in your possession?
I'm afraid that we do not.
Then who does?
Well, at this point, it's unclear.
Whoa, whoa, whoa whoa, whoa.
So what kind of inheritance is a missing diamond,
and who gets it?
Actually, Mr. Rose...
Isaac left it to his granddaughter,
to be held in trust by her mother
until Willow is 21.
You've got to be fucking kidding me.
Sorry, Cam, I would've thought.
Pop would've given you part of the company, I mean...
No, that's not it, you know...
what really hurts
is that I helped build this fucking company, you know,
and your father, he gives my lovely wife 25%,
and she's not well, and we all know it.
She can't handle the stress.
That's what worries me.
Now, we need to find this fucking stone.
It's worth $150 mill.
Pop had safety deposit boxes all over the city.
I don't even know where he kept the keys.
Jake, you have any idea?
You know, sooner or later,
we're going to have to stop ignoring each other.
Go to hell.
That's a start.
Okay, guys, let's stay focused.
She's fucking right, here.
Isaac took Willow to the bank,
but he forgot he already closed the safety box out.
Well, it's important we all stick together here,
and your father would've wanted
to keep this thing afloat.
Now, Ava,
I know you got control of your daughter's 25%,
but you're not really in the position
to make decisions,
so you're going to have to trust
the decisions that we make.
Just so there's no misunderstanding,
I want to hear about those choices
before any decisions are made.
You know, Cam,
she's not just going to be... handled.
Yes, she is.
We find that stone,
no more money worries.
Ava? Ava.
Can I talk to you for a second?
I mean, it's crazy, right?
My pop making you the executor of Willow's shares,
and not me.
Maybe Isaac saw what a mess you and Freddy were making
and thought I couldn't do any worse.
'Kay, that's not fair, okay?
This company is losing money,
and I'm doing everything that I can
to keep it afloat.
So why don't you get on a plane like always?
Go to London,
get stones from the Barrow Diamond Syndicate.
We're not welcome there anymore.
What happened?
I missed a fucking payment.
I fucked up, but I can fix it.
I just need some money,
and the only way that that can happen
is if we sell the Malibu house.
You and Willow can stay in Pop's...
No. No. No! No way, Jake.
Ava?
Ava!
Ava, stop!
Ava, stop! Ava!
I am over-leveraged, and I need the money.
I have no other choice.
This is really fucked, Jake.
I don't know what was in your father's head
when he put me in charge of Willow's shares,
but I'm going to honor his wishes.
Sell the damn house.
If you want to run a business, you have to make sacrifices.
Hey.
How'd you get on with the old lady?
Just fine.
Look, I know you don't want to hear this, Jake, but, uh...
I think it's time we sat down and had a talk with Pieter.
We already have Lady Rah bleeding us dry.
I'm not going to open the door
to another fucking jackal.
Pieter Van de Bruin is not Lady Rah.
I know for a fact that
his reputation is grossly exaggerated.
A fact?
Did he work a little bit on the dark side from the start?
Sure.
He's in the fucking diamond business.
I know he has the supplies to keep this operation running.
We need help, Jake.
I know...
and that is why I put a call in to Han.
You're wasting your time with that prick?
He'll squeeze the fuck out of us.
He's a legitimate wholesaler, Cam,
and Pieter's not, so...
Your father would never do business with Han.
He called him a fucking shark.
If you've reached out to him,
he knows there's blood in the water.
Jake? Jake... Jake!
Cam...
Look...
we'll find another way,
but do not involve Han.
Yeah.
We have a problem.
Thanks.
- See you next week. - See you.
He's a coward
who hides behind threats of violence.
I must've made that man millions over the years.
He kills Trenton,
and he still holds my daughter hostage.
If it wasn't for her,
I would have slit his throat a long time ago.
So then, tell me what you need me to do.
His habits reveal his vulnerabilities,
so I want you to watch him.
Get me something I can use...
a soft, fleshy spot,
something that he holds dear...
and then I'm going to make him bleed.
What about Palesa?
Every dollar I steal,
every diamond I skim,
I spread all over South Africa to find her.
The place is still a mess.
I'm trying to sort through things.
You should have a look around
and see if there's anything you'd like to keep.
Yeah.
Crazy, you guys are going to be...
going to be living here.
Yeah.
So, sorry about the whole shiva debacle.
I feel like an asshole.
I mean, from what I remember, it got pretty ugly,
and I feel like a real douchebag, and...
what can I say? I'm an idiot.
Yeah, well, things never get boring around here, do they?
Yeah, but no, I mean it, Ava.
I'm sorry.
Really.
Okay.
You know, my dad...
he made some questionable calls in his time, but...
giving you and Willow part of the company
was a smart fucking move...
in my opinion.
Thanks.
I've got to say,
I can't figure out why you'd want any part of it,
I mean, you know, just...
all of it.
I'm just in it for the matzah.
I've got to tackle the office.
Okay, I've got to ask you a favor.
I've got to go to an AA meeting.
It's been a while.
The first one back is...
pretty awful, usually,
and I really don't want to go alone.
I was wondering if you would, I don't know,
take a break here, and...
buy you some matzah ball soup?
Yes.
Yes, I understand.
Here you go.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Was that Uncle Cam?
No.
It was your grandfather's lawyer.
- Oh... - Oh!
I got it.
Just an accident.
Was it something the lawyer said?
I don't feel right.
Maybe you should see another doctor?
I don't need any more doctors.
Cameron...
you led me to understand that with Isaac gone,
you would control at least 25% of Green & Green.
Well...
Needless to say,
I did not anticipate
that you would control none of it.
It's a minor setback.
Here.
Thank you.
You know, my wife's as mad as a box of frogs.
Any judge in the country will see that.
And the lovely Ava?
Like I said, she ain't a problem.
Green & Green, they're on the brink.
All they need is a little push.
They're going to need considerably more than that.
They've proved much more resourceful
than I had anticipated.
It would be very inconvenient
for me to have to resort to further action,
but I will.
So what are we talking about here?
Cameron,
you and I stood face to face in Algiers,
and we made a promise to each other.
Yeah.
You said that you would trust me
to put everything in motion from my side,
and I anticipated
that you would be able to do the same from yours.
Fuck me.
You motherfuckers.
Goddammit, I had a fucking warrant for this place.
- Hey. - Hey.
You pull any bodies out of here?
Yeah, we have three so far,
but dental I.D.s are going to take a little while.
We think the proprietor was one of them.
You're shitting me! Edwin Einhardt.
They called him "The Baker."
He was my best shot at nailing a fucking murderer.
Look, just please tell me
that I can still pull DNA out of that oven.
That ship has sailed.
The combination of heat and the backdraft
pulled the ashes all over this goddamn place.
So no way to prove a body was in the oven?
Motherfuckers.
Ready?
No, I try to go in after the meeting starts...
skip the coffee talk.
It's a lot of... hugging.
Okay.
You know, I've been thinking about what you asked me.
Yeah? What?
About why I stay connected to the family.
Oh, yeah.
It has to do with your father.
He's the one who made me feel like
I was irreplaceable in this family,
like being a Green is something you don't just walk away from.
And I want that for Willow, you know?
I want her to have everything.
I want her to share her family's legacy,
and that legacy is becoming more and more ephemeral.
I totally want to pretend like I know what that word means,
but I don't.
What does it mean? What is it, "ephemeral"?
What does that mean?
Vanishing.
Vanishing, huh?
Fucking college girls.
Come on. Let's go.
Okay. Yeah.
You know what? I just...
I totally need to do this, and I will.
I just think...
I think tomorrow,
because it's bringing a lot of anxiety up for me.
I promise I'm not going to drink or do anything.
Trust me, but... I just...
Will you come with me tomorrow?
May I?
We have to talk about this, Sarah,
'cause it ain't going to work.
Do you need me to get your pills?
- Would that help? - No.
You've got to be rational here.
You ain't been to the store for years.
Let me take the lead.
We've got to be on the same page here.
There is no we.
My brother left me a quarter share,
not us.
What have you got to offer the business?
You get nervous at just the thought of going to the grocery store.
If Isaac thought you would take.
Green & Green in the right direction,
don't you think he would have left 25% to you
and not to me?
To think of the effort we've expended,
and for what?
1.8 million?
Not even.
If we're going to accomplish our greater goals,
small loads like this will not suffice.
The pipeline has been successful,
and it will continue to be so, Pieter.
What we have been doing, my dear,
mathematically speaking,
has been arithmetic.
I'm talking about raising our level
to calculus.
Hmm.
Don't patronize me, Pieter.
Darling,
we are expanding.
Pouches on airplanes
will no longer fulfill my needs.
The number of stones coming out of Africa
will be substantially greater,
and we will need to be bringing in no less
than 10 million dollars' worth per load.
And how do you plan on doing that?
Every second,
365 days a year,
more than 40,000 ships ply our oceans,
and they are each stacked high with containers,
millions of containers.
I have one of those containers...
at the port.
All I need is someone with access.
Maybe I have someone.
Careful.
Someone who knows it would be in his best interest
to be of service to us both.
If you can accomplish that,
it would be splendid.
I would even consider
forgetting that debacle in Canada.
Oh, Canada...
and more than that,
you may even see your little Palesa
sooner than anticipated.
To that.
Hello?
Remember me?
No.
Who is this?
The convert...
the guy that went organic all the way.
From the supermarket?
Oh, Nick! Of course! Hi.
- How are you? - I'm great!
It sounds like you're jogging.
I'm moving.
I've been packing boxes all day.
Hopefully someplace exotic?
If you call Hancock Park exotic.
I love that area!
All those great little restaurants,
where I'd love to take you, unless you have plans tonight?
Well...
I'd love to go,
but, really, I have a million things I need to do.
You know, when I was in college,
I used to work for this moving company,
and high on their list of packing tips
was carb loading.
I know you're all organic,
but please don't tell me you're gluten-free, too.
No, I love pasta.
Great, 'cause I know this amazing little Italian spot on Larchmont.
What time?
Hey.
I'm on my way back, so I want Alexi Yakenev
waiting for me in the interview room
when I get there.
Bullshit! You better not tell me that.
Why wasn't I notified?
Find out who posted his bail, now!
I don't see gratitude in your eyes, Alexi.
Figured you had me whether I was inside or out.
So do what you have to.
Just make it quick.
And why would I forfeit all the money I've just paid to get you out?
No...
you are more useful to me alive than dead, Alexi.
I understand that you have a reliable connection at the port.
What's my take?
"What's my take?"
Your freedom...
and if you don't like my offer,
then I'm more than happy to kill you,
right here, right now.
Hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Good choice.
This is my favorite as well, okay?
This is the Green & Green cut diamond.
Sunny?
Um, excuse me for just one second...
You motherfuckers are out of control.
What are you...?
What the hell is wrong with you, man?
You crossed the line.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
I came to you as a friend,
trying to give you a heads up
on all this shit that had stacked up on Freddy
so that you could get out ahead of it, Jake,
and not go down with him.
You took what I told you, and you fucked me.
How did I do that?
The Baker.
You knew he pawned Avi's watch
because I told you,
and now he's dead.
Oh, what, you're just going to pretend
like you don't know what I'm talking about?
'Los...
I know you believe that, but you are fucking wrong.
Then tell me why all the dots I keep connecting
are disappearing.
We're done here.
Either arrest me
for whatever you think I've done,
or get the fuck out of my store.
All right, Jake.
Have it your way.
Ah...
what a nice way to spend your time
with my favorite niece, huh?
Your only niece.
You never brought ice cream before, so what's up?
You're straight to the point.
Just like your grandfather.
Cioccolato!
You, uh...
You know he left you something, Will.
Yeah, my mom told me it was a diamond,
but no one knows where it is.
It's not just any old diamond, you know.
It's your heritage.
It's the Green family legacy.
You know why he chose you?
'Cause you represent the next generation.
No pressure there.
Oh, I'm sorry, Will.
I didn't want to put any pressure on you, you know.
But I wanted you to know
how important this particular stone is.
You know, it's worth a fortune,
but the sentimental value to this family, it's...
well, it's priceless.
You spent a lot of time with your grandfather,
you know, chatting.
I know for a fact he loved you very, very much.
Did he ever hint, you know,
that he might know where it might be?
No.
You know his memory wasn't great.
I think he wanted to find it for me,
but he couldn't.
Hi, Mom.
No, I'm with Uncle Cam.
Hiya!
Yeah, he brought over a ton of ice cream.
Okay... see you in a bit.
Good, huh?
- Pretty good. - Yeah?
It's called a "banana split."
Yeah, I know.
Oh!
Do you know what a "knickerbocker glory" is?
Smarty pants.
No offense, but I thought
I was going to be sitting across from Mr. Han.
I assure you, Mr. Green,
I have full authority to speak for Mr. Han.
Well, we had a deal.
All right?
Your boss, he gave me a number,
and now, you're sitting across from me,
telling me that I have to pay full fucking retail?
It's bullshit.
In all candor,
you're not going to get a more favorable deal
from anyone else.
Green & Green's reputation is...
not what it used to be.
Well, I wonder what your reputation would be
if word got out you reneged on a deal.
Perception is everything.
Mr. Han can't afford
to sully his name with the syndicate
by dealing directly with you.
The deal would have to be sub rosa.
You want me to keep my mouth shut?
Fine.
Just give me 10% below retail,
just like we agreed upon.
Fine.
It's a pleasure as always.
Freddy? Meet me at my place.
Willow?
What?
What did Uncle Cam want?
What did you talk about?
Papa, mostly,
and he thought it was cool
that I got the Holocaust diamond.
He asked you about the diamond?
Yeah, he wanted to know if I knew where it was.
When did he leave?
- Hmm? - When did he leave?
Uh, I don't know. He's still here.
In the den, I think.
Fuck it.
Jesus Christ!
Nearly gave me a fucking heart attack.
Just give me a moment.
You looking for something?
Yeah, I'm just looking for some paperwork
Isaac might have left out, you know?
Before it gets stuffed in a box.
We got bills to pay, blah-di-blah-di-blah.
How you doing?
You know, what with the move and that?
What makes you think you can come here
and grill my daughter about the diamond?
Relax, Ava.
You're sounding a little bit paranoid.
You didn't get your 25%,
so it's clear to me you want to get your hands on that stone.
Well, if we're being honest,
I think we all would.
Just leave Willow out of it.
This is my house now.
You're not welcome here.
Hey...
I'm family.
This floor alone is 50,000 square feet.
The whole building is over 400,000 square feet.
No...
this is not what I had in mind at all.
Okay, I have several other properties.
This one on West Sixth Street...
I have another on Hill...
That one.
The St. Vincent Building.
It's 700,000 square feet
and houses hundreds of independent merchants.
You have jewelry manufacturers, designers,
retail and wholesale dealers.
Oh, look!
Green & Green.
A very prestigious store.
I'm acquainted with the Green family.
We're old friends.
It's good to have friends as tenants.
Mm. That's perfect.
My caution is
that I'm going to have to completely modernize that building.
Do you think I might encounter resistance
from the current tenants?
The asking price is $105 million.
Full ownership will give you full control.
Excellent.
I will keep the name.
St. Vincent.
What do you put this 4.2 pear shape at?
1482.
All right, I could get comfortable with that number.
Even with those inclusions on the, uh...?
Yeah, the pinpoints? No, they work with the cut.
What we can do is set it in yellow gold.
That'll make the stone pop.
Micro-set the prongs,
that's somebody's 10-year anniversary pendant right there.
All right, last ones.
Earrings.
- Yeah. What are these at? - 38 each.
38 each?
Oh, you know what we can do with these?
Make these vintage.
Sell them on the European market.
That'll give us some leeway with the clarity.
So they're worth Han's price?
Yeah, we can get above retail.
Maybe not much, but some.
Good.
Hey, you think we can, uh...
talk for a minute?
- Not about diamonds? - No.
And you can let yourself out.
Didn't expect to see you back around any time soon, Alexi.
Why's that?
Word on the street is,
that C-117 job didn't go the way you had hoped.
Don't believe everything you hear.
Came in from Beijing.
Manifest reads 26 crates... here...
of garden gravel...
but fuck me if there aren't 27 crates here.
This is it. This is the one I need.
Congratulations.
Now your manifest count is accurate.
Are you waiting for a pat on the head?
Get the fuck out of here.
Just want to make sure
you know you got your money's worth.
Tell Herman we need his services immediately.
So, do you miss being married?
I thought I did,
so I started spending too much time with my ex.
No more?
- Wasn't good for our daughter. - Oh.
I was sending too many mixed signals to everyone.
And you?
Yeah, I tried it once.
Turns out I was more married to my work.
Mm.
I'd like to think
that I've since found a more healthy balance.
I just found myself thrust into a business
where I'm clearly not wanted,
and worse, I know nothing about.
Tell me what's going on.
Just...
family business stuff that I need to sort through.
Well, if it's a legal issue,
I can maybe help.
I don't think it'll come to that.
We've got pinpoint inclusions
here, here, and here...
I've a feather here.
And bearding.
Right.
Not some of the cleanest rough
you've ever brought me.
No.
What about this one?
I opened the window on this one.
I can get you a
couple of cushion or radiant cuts...
maybe six carats apiece, vivid yellow.
We're losing too much.
Can you make it fancy vivid?
I can try, but that will take time.
- How much time? - Three weeks, minimum.
I don't have time for that.
We'll sell the majority as clean roughs.
And what about the rest of the parcel?
Cuts and polish.
I'm counting on you to be fast with this, Herman.
Don't disappoint me.
Please.
Do you want anything? I'm making tea.
No, I'm good, but thank you.
I just want to thank you, you know,
for coming with me yesterday.
That was really cool of you,
and it really helped me a lot, so thank you.
You're welcome.
I think you thanked me already, like, three times.
Yeah.
So this motel I'm staying in is...
it's a really cool... really cool place.
Very funky, and it's like... it's just... uh...
it's very...
it's very cool when you're fucked up,
but it turns out that when you sober up,
it's super depressing.
I don't have anywhere else to go...
and I really need to be around people right now...
you know, family...
and I know
that it is not the most intelligent parental decision
to let a coke-head alcoholic live with you and your daughter, but...
you know me.
You know how much I love Willow.
I'm not going to do anything stupid.
I just...
I just need a soft place to land right now.
All right.
Yeah?
You can stay here with us...
but you can't mess around, Freddy.
Yes.
You have to stay clean while you're here.
Don't make me regret this.
I won't.
Now, I can't imagine.
Jake's going to be too happy about...
It's not really up to him...
and you can teach me about the business
while you're here.
Yeah!
Yeah, totally. That'd be fun.
Ha ha, okay. Deal.
All right,
I'm just going to grab my crack pipe and needles.
I'll be back.
Kidding.
Hello?
You did say I could call you again, right?
I did.
I just didn't realize you'd be calling so soon.
So I had to come into work,
but I started thinking about you,
and I don't know if you can tell, but...
I get a little awkward
when it comes to stuff like this.
It's okay.
It's refreshing.
So...
how about dinner tomorrow night?
Sure.
Great.
Good night, Nick.
'Night, Ava.
Sorry to call you in so late, sir.
Not a problem. What's so important?
Customs informed us two days ago
that Pieter Van de Bruin is in town.
Did you put a surveillance team on him?
Take a look.
He's definitely not here for a Dodgers game.
Great. Thanks.
Is this okay for tonight?
Yeah, it's perfect.
I'll get the guest room sorted out tomorrow.
Yeah, well, yeah. Either way.
You don't have to do that.
Oh, I don't mind.
No, no, please, please.
I don't want you to worry about me.
I got it.
- Okay. - Thank you.
You're welcome.
Can I get you anything?
Something to help you sleep, maybe?
A sleeping pill?
I guess that's a...
bad idea.
Yeah.
I'd probably just crush it up and snort it, so.
Just kidding.
Good night.
Yeah, good night. Sleep well.
Willow?
What-o?
I need to talk to you.
Mm-hmm.
Your Uncle Freddy is going to be staying with us
for a little while.
Did he set his hotel room on fire or something?
No.
He wants to get sober and he needs to stay with us.
That's great,
but did you suggest that he come stay here,
or did he ask?
Does it make a difference?
Uh, yeah, it kind of does.
If he asked, that means he really wants to do it.
He's taking initiative.
You're a pretty smart kid, you know that?
He asked.
Well, then that, my dear mother I love so much,
is a very good sign.
I just need you to promise me something.
Hmm?
If you see him doing any drugs or drinking in the house,
- I want you to come to me. - Yeah.
I will.
And I hope he doesn't.
Me too.
Get your fucking hands up!
Geez, easy, guys.
Easy.
Give me the fucking bag!
All right, I'm out of here.
Finish it off.
Open the door.
Open the fucking door!
All right, all right.
We're insured. Just take the shit and go.
I want to go to the safe.
Open it.
Open that door, I swear to God,
I'll blow your fucking head off.
I'm gonna need my hands to do that.
Then use your hands.
Let's go.
Who fucking told you to do this?
Lose the fucking mask.
Fuck you!
Fuck you.
Fuck!
Who fucking sent you, huh?
Nobody sent me.
Give me the fucking name.
You knew what I was carrying.
You knew where my fucking safe was.
Tell me who sent you.
Look around you.
Do you see any fucking cameras?
You know, my story to the cops
is going to be that we struggled for the gun,
and it just went off.
How many times it goes off is up to you.
Who fucking sent you?
It was a tall guy.
White beard.
Talked like a fucking Canuck.
He had cufflinks with diamonds
the size of my fucking fist. Listen...
I can pick this guy out of a fucking line-up.
Did he want me dead after you got what you came for?
Yeah.
He said... He said to make it look bad.
Kill you, toss the place.
Listen...
I'll tell the cops everything.
