The Best Little Auction House in Texas

Vikki loads up 2 huge trailer trucks full of antiques and heads for the green pastures of Round Top, Texas. It's a week-long event and the biggest antique fair in the country. She and Michael revisit their past together - the good, the bad and the ugly.

We follow Greg Rackem, one of Vikki's biggest dealers, back home to New Orleans after he has filled up his truck at Vikki's. She shows up, gets a tour of the place and then takes us to meet a famous sculptor and builder of Mardi Gras floats.

Vikki is under the gun as she deals with the biggest auction of the year, a pressing deadline to move to another location, Christmas, the usual strange mix of dogs, customers, family, friends and employees and the sale of her prized circus banners.

Vikki reluctantly goes with Michael on a road trip to visit their old friend and Michael's mentor, Jackie Avens. Michael tries to manipulate Vikki to buy out Jackie as they peruse his wares and listen to his old tales. Vikki finds her resolve eroding.

Vikki has a load of 19th Century English Grandfather clocks that she is a little concerned about. We learn a lot about clocks and clock people; plus, we get to meet Stella's brother, Jasper.

Vikki travels to Jefferson, an old ante bellum Texas town, to appraise an estate. We follow the items through auction and meet up with Michael who shares his greatest passion.

Vikki and John drive up to Round Top to preview their newest acquisition. John is literally converting a chicken coop into an antique shop. We follow all things to completion.

Vikki has escaped to the Balkans, leaving John in charge and having to conduct his first solo auction. We get to visit with some of the regulars, meet a new friend and explore John and Vikki's retail shop.
