just in case some people talking about anticipating the ep drop by, I'm putting it in spoilers (since I've seen nobody else talk about the actual episode).

Spoiler:

Nice "make up" scene. Ahh, sweet character development...

As for the grand scheme, as far as I could make out, it was basically gold smuggling - Lawrence went back to the guys who own his debt - they are in deep trouble themselves, and would be open to extreme solutions, rather than just shake Lawrence down for his last few pennies. I think the plan was for Nora to smuggle the gold in the stomach of her sheep. We get to see Lawrence being quite manipulative - or at least, make a good sales pitch. Of course, it'd helped that Nora's situation was getting rather bleak (and Lawrence had pretty much guessed what was going on).
