Episode 5
Auf der Fahrt durch North Carolinas spektakuläre Wälder besuchen die Jungs einen Sammler namens Mike, der vom County die Anweisung bekommen hat, seinen Schrottplatz zu verkleinern. Mike und Frank helfen ihm nur zu gerne dabei, seine Sammlung auszudünnen. Im San Joaquin Valley finden sie zufällig eine Goldgrube an Oldtimern. Der Schrottplatzbesitzer Dave hat mehr Projekte angehäuft, als er und sein Sohn bewältigen können, also bieten Mike und Frank ihre Hilfe an. Unterdessen erfährt Danielle in Iowa von ein paar alten Zirkusplakaten, die eine Menge wert sein könnten.
06
Episode 6
Mike und Frank besuchen Larrys psychedelisches Wunderland im Norden Kaliforniens, wo der versierte Künstler und Hippie unglaubliche Schätze zusammengetragen hat. Larry hat schon Stücke im Smithsonian ausgestellt, doch was er behalten hat, ist noch verblüffender. Dann geraten die Jungs in einen Machtkampf zwischen Vater und Tochter. Deren Farm ist voller Antiquitäten, aber es ist nicht ganz klar, wer das Sagen hat und was zu verkaufen ist. Frank gibt ein Angebot ab, das zeigt, dass er ernsthaftes Interesse hat.
07
Episode 7
Auf ihrer Trödel-Tour durch Kentucky besuchen die Jungs Evelyns atemberaubenden Besitz, auf dem sich unter anderem eine alte Rennstrecke und ein testosterongeladenes Cowboymuseum befinden. Da das Dach langsam nachgibt, ist es Zeit, die Sammlung loszuwerden. In North Carolina treffen die Jungs einen 87 Jahre alten Trödler und seinen Wach-Esel. Obwohl sein Grundstück von altem Kram förmlich übersät ist, scheint das meiste nicht viel wert zu sein. Dann entdecken sie in einem Schuppen ein einzigartiges TV-Relikt.
08
Episode 8
Eine Farm in Indiana mit einer Garage voller Oldtimer und einem Antiquitätengeschäft, das bereits seit den 1970er Jahren geschlossen ist, könnte der Traum jeden Trödelsammlers sein. Doch zunächst müssen sich Mike und Frank mit den Besitzern einigen, die um jeden Dollar feilschen. In West Virginia durchstöbern die Jungs einen Flugzeug-Schrottplatz, wo ein historisches Flugzeug steht, das einst auf dem Rasen des Weißen Hauses abgestürzt ist. Da die besten Fundstücke jedoch für ein zukünftiges Museum vorgemerkt sind, müssen Mike und Frank sich etwas einfallen lassen.
09
Episode 9
Auf Johns Grundstück in Indiana findet man alles, von tollen Autos über einen Gemischtwarenladen bis zu einer Busstation, die er eigens für seinen coolen Oldtimer-Bus gebaut hat. Und er ist in Verkaufslaune. Später gibt es in Darrells Autoparadies den totalen Volkswagen-Wahnsinn. Doch als alles, was Mike kaufen will, tabu ist, fühlt er sich gezwungen, einen anderen Gang einzulegen. Später begeben sich die Jungs auf eine musikalische Mission für Danielle. Sie suchen eine Trompete für deren Sohn, aber können nicht widerstehen, die Farm auch nach anderen Schätzen zu durchsuchen.
10
Episode 10
Die Jungs arbeiten sich nach Süd-Kalifornien vor und sind begeistert, als sie einen motivierten Verkäufer treffen, der einen Plan hat. Jeffs Kleinstadtlokal war in den 1970er Jahren ein Party-Palast, und nun löst er seine riesige daraus stammende Antiquitätensammlung auf. Als die Jungs später ohne vielversprechende Hinweise dastehen, hilft ein anderer Trödelsammler aus, indem er ihnen den „Schrott-Paten“ vorstellt. Unter Bernies sich immer weiter ausbreitendem Besitz finden sich Automobilteile aus jeder Ära, aber der Trick ist, etwas zu finden, das er wirklich verkaufen will.

Mike und Danielle durchkämmen Marks Labyrinth aus Antiquitäten, in dem hinter jeder Ecke eine Überraschung liegt. Es gibt nur einen schmalen Pfad durch das Chaos, aber seltene Schätze zuhauf.

Außerhalb von New York City haben die Zwillinge Joe und Tom eine ganze Nachbarschaft gekauft, um ihre immer größer werdende, seit vielen Generationen zusammengetragene Sammlung unterzubringen. Während sich unter Joes münzbetriebenen Schönheiten unter anderem ein Elefant befindet, ist Toms Sammlung von Schaufensterpuppen wirklich einmalig.

05
Episode 5
In Pennsylvania besuchen die Jungs Morgan, einen Sammler von Spielzeug für große Jungs. Er ist wie ein verrückter Wissenschaftler, der gern Dinge in die Luft jagt. Er hat alles von Panzern bis zu Maschinengewehren und einen zwei Stockwerke hohen Tesla-Transformator, aus dem Blitze herausschießen. Später besuchen sie Hilda, deren Familie seit vier Generationen nichts weggeworfen hat, so dass es in ihrem Haus in Hudson Valley eine Menge zum Trödeln gibt. Mike entdeckt gleich zwei der seltensten Schilder, die er je gesehen hat. Doch Hilda und ihr Mann feilschen um den letzten Cent.

Beths verstorbener Bruder war professioneller Zauberer, der eine der größten Sammlungen von Plakaten für Jahrmarktsattraktionen hinterlassen hat, die die Jungs je gesehen haben. In Iowa ruft Danielle einen Mentor an, der sich ein mysteriöses mechanisches Pferd ansehen soll.

Mike and Frank head to Ohio and decide to make the trip a little more interesting by bringing along a cup dispenser from an old train station to trade with their clients, hoping to make some cash. They meet Will, the son of an auctioneer who has inherited a house packed with his dad's collection and is coming to terms with letting the stuff go. The guys pick up tons of items, including an antique accordion on which Frank shows off his musical talents! Next, they truck to Indiana to meet a small town historian who takes everyone's collectibles for safe keeping. There, they purchase a St. Louis Cardinals vintage baseball poster and Frank falls in love with a pinball machine featuring Happy Days' the Fonz.
