In my opinion, this was the best episode of the Riches so far. A lot happened: Dahlia found the money, Cael decided to stay with the Travellers, Di Di started a new relationship, and Wayne has to deal with the presures of the con that is starting to destroy his marriage. It was the perfect episode...at least for 90% of it.
As you may or may not know, GMC did a lot of sponsorship for the show. I guess this meant a 2 minutes advertisement in the middle of the show. And I'm not talking about a commercial...I mean an in-show ad. Dahlia goes to buy a car which coincidently is the GMC Acadia, the car they were promoting during The Riches new season ads. Of course the car salesman had to list all of the great features of this car and Dahlia was impressed saying how great of a deal it was. This killed the episode for me.
The one minor flaw prevented this from being the perfect episode of The Riches. It revealed a lot about what's to come and Wayne is starting to feel this con backfire turning the perfect life he has as 'The Riches' back to his life of being a Traveller. We can only hope that a third season happens and we learn more of what's to come.moreless
AIRED:
Wayne struggles to regain Dahlia's trust while also attempting to keep Dale and the other Travellers away. Meanwhile, Cael and Rosaleen become closer, and Nina throws a party for Jim that comes to a shocking end.

ADD QUOTES-
Di Di: (reading a classmate's t-shirt) Cool & Celibate. (laughs) Are you serious? (pause as the girl looks at her) I mean, are you truly serious!? Because sometimes I think no one is as serious as I am about no sex. This is not a joke. You can't be half a virgin. You're either a virgin or a slut.
