After kick-starting their Alberta picking expedition at the legendary Blackfoot Truck Stop, Scott goes nuts for a 'white man's' totem pole. But can he and Sheldon wrestle it out of the ground? Also in this episode... A prolific collector in Lethbridge has everything from saddles to stagecoaches, and even a classic horse drawn casket. But since he rarely sells, he is reluctant to part with any of his treasures. Later, a former Fort Macleod church contains some divine curios including some bizarre cowboy boot lamps and a slew of vintage radios. And the negotiating gets intense as the guys try to strike a deal with a fellow picker. And, famous for its nearby ghost towns and legendary mines, the guys visit a local history museum in Bellevue where everything must go.

North of Calgary, the guys visit a prolific collector with plenty of outbuildings and a sprawling graveyard of historic cars that capture Scott's attention. The guys are excited until they realize the property has already been picked, and what's left seems to cost a fortune. Dave has everything from classic snowmobiles to vintage Barbie dolls and unbelievable prices. The guys can't seem to catch a break and fear the expensive trip is going to cost them. Later, their luck seems to have changed when they come across Jim. After a lifetime of collecting, he's looking toward his retirement and is motivated to clear out his home and outbuildings. And, in Horseshoe Canyon, Scott and Sheldon stop in at the Last Chance Saloon. The century-old watering hole is closing its doors, and it's packed with amazing memories and incredible stuff.
