- Good morning,
my little furry friend.

- Morning.

Can I help you?

- Morning.

West London Department of Sanitation.

You're probably aware of
the rodent infestation

along this block?

- Sorry, what are you talking about?

- Rats.

They can be discreet.

But they can damage your stock,

as well as spreading
some very nasty diseases.

- We don't have any rats!

Let me see some ID, please.

- We'll be fumigating till about 12.

I'd keep out of the way til then.

Oh, and keep this to yourselves.

Discretion is always the best policy

where business reputations are concerned.

Thank you.

- All right, she'll be here any minute.

- Better make yourself scarce.

- Yeah.

- Good morning, Miss Gates.

- Morning.

Is this it, then?

- Yeah.

Come in.

- I'll come right to
the point, Mr. Pomeroy.

You're a chancer.

A beautiful chancer.

But nevertheless, you're
a furniture mover.

What could you possibly
know about fine art, hm?

Are you really going to
pay half a million for it?

- Yes, I am.

Okay, no, I'm not.

My ceiling's actually 250,000,

but I'm looking for a
partner who can match me.

- You know, if this is genuine,

it could be worth several million.

- I don't doubt that.

- Right.

So, we will view the painting
at my gallery together.

If I am satisfied,

then I will consider going 50-50 with you.

- That's incredibly generous, Miss Gates.

- I do warn you, I take some convincing.

- Bye.

Oh yes, we're on.

- No, I'm
staying put in Belgravia.

Nurse, Nurse, for the love
of God, get rid of this!

- It's unbelievable, isn't it?

I mean, does that woman ever shut up?

- Tell me about it.
- What you got, Ernie?

- Not much.

- What's that?

Nothing.

Okay, what have I got?

Ooh, full house.

Winner takes all, mate.

Listen.

You might want to consider, yeah,

watching that tell of yours.

- What?

- A tell is a little giveaway sign, yeah?

Lets me know what you're thinking.

Like when you've got a good
hand, you start clapping

and roaring with laughter.

Think about it.

See you.
- Good luck.

- Nurse!

Does he know he's dealing
with Meredith Gates?

Well, I don't care what
he thinks it's worth,

go to 100,000 and no more.

Right, I'm taking a walk.

Send the car for me.

- Is that?
- Rachel's lawyer.

She wants a settlement.

- How much?

- I guess that's in the envelope.

- Gonna pay?

- Don't rush me.

I haven't even decided to open it yet.

- Come on, what's the matter?

- Oh, I don't know.

Something just doesn't feel right.

Mickey, there's a man
outside looking for us.

Me and Ash.

Except he's Harry and I'm Gordon.

- When he comes in here,
could you tell him I'm dead?

- And I'm in China.

- Look, I don't know who
you're talking about, mate.

- Do you expect me to believe that?

- I'm sorry.

- Excuse me.

You're looking for Harry and Gordon.

- I knew I had the right place.

I think I deserve a word with them.

- I'm sorry, but they're...

- Don't tell me.

Out of the country.

- Marrakesh.

- Marrakesh?

- For the trade fair.

- Well, when they get back,
tell them well done from me.

They did me good.

Very clever.

If they want to see how clever
they've been, here's my card.

- It was while you were inside.

- Yeah, we was bored of the small fish.

- We made one call from here.

One ruddy call.

- And Naveen gets an itemized
phone bill and he traces you.

That's Chapter One, boys.

- Oh, no, it was sweet, Mickey.

The rag trade, but international.

The Rolex, the Jag.

Worked the whole thing up, you know.

I looked like Rockefeller.

- And I roped in the mark, Naveen.

Has a T-shirt factory.

- You did that?

- Yeah.

- We planned on 20, but
he wanted in for 50 grand.

Now, if we'd have known he was in trouble,

we would have left him alone.

But he was acting the big man.

- You took money from a desperate man.

Is that what we are, muggers?

- We thought he could
afford to be fleeced.

We ripped him off in good faith.

- This explains a lot of what
I've been feeling recently.

I think we're under a jinx.

- Oh, come on.

- Why do we have codes, Ash?

- Because it's the decent thing.

- No, the decent thing
is not to grift at all.

And we have a code because
bad behavior makes bad luck.

- There's no jinx, mate.

- Cut.

- Maybe we did pick the wrong mark.

But it felt so good to be
the inside man again, Mickey.

You know, to feel that glow.

- Receivers, you can
practically smell them.

Rachel says I dragged
her life into the gutter.

I don't see it that way.

But taking a desperate
man for his last penny?

- You always say we have
to live by our decision.

- And can you live with this one?

- My bag.

And that's that.

It's all right, I'm a
friend of the sculptor's.

Hm, yeah.

Yeah, impressive piece.

Impressive use of the blobs there.

- I wonder what compelled him.

- Well, I think if you look
at the artist's earlier work

it becomes obvious.

- Earlier work?

This is the only one.

He was 19 when he died.

- I was thinking more
of his childhood stuff.

You know, some of his early
pieces that he did in crayon.

- Oh, teasing.

- What's it worth?

Oh, 20 grand.

I'll think about it anyway.

- Of course, the Gates Gallery

is usually viewed by appointment.

Are you one of her inner circle?

- No.

I just think that art is for everyone.

- Not when everyone includes all

the poor struggling dealers and buyers

that she's ripped off over the years.

- How true.

- Meredith Gates likes
to keep mere mortals

at a safe distance.

- Dali's sketches go for inflated prices

to satisfy vanity-driven eccentrics

with no real art appreciation.

At least that's what I
told him before I paid him,

ooh, a third of their real value.

- I've been hoping to
write an article on her,

maybe even an expose.

Just look at her.

The only reason she's opened
to the proles is because

she wants maximum publicity
for her new Mondrians.

Oh God, you're not a
friend of hers, are you?

- No, no, no.

Although I am after a Mondrian myself.

- They're just for show.

Bea Watson, art journalist.

- Oh, Daniel Pomeroy, collector.

- You're not really after
a Mondrian, are you?

I mean, Meredith would
kill for another one.

That piece in the middle she bought

for a quarter of a million.

♪ Dreaming ♪

♪ I fell asleep beneath the flowers ♪

♪ For a couple of hours ♪

♪ On a beautiful day ♪

- Right.

This is Piet Mondrian.

Born in Holland, 1872.

These are a few of his paintings.

Yeah, quite nice, but they
don't blow your bollocks off.

Suddenly in 1909 in comes the hippy shit.

Few years later, this.

Pay attention at the back.

This is for your benefit.

Most people reckon that
Mondrian got all fired up

after seeing an exhibition by Picasso

and that's when he started boshing out

the psychedelic trees.

But there's a mystery involved.

Some claim that Mondrian
was playing around

with abstract art before
Picasso even had a sniff.

But because he was such
an unassuming bloke,

he kept it to himself and only
went public after Picasso.

And do we know what
that would mean, class?

- Mondrian could've
invented a new type of art,

but Picasso took all the glory.

- Give that man an A plus.

- So you've been to an art
gallery and read a book.

What's all this got to
do with six figures?

- Well, suppose the mystery was solved.

Suppose a painting was
discovered that was dated,

say, 1902 or 1903,
before Picasso invented...

- Cubism.

- Before Picasso invented Cubism.

And say this painting was a Mondrian.

It would turn art history on its head.

- Exactly.

I mean, it's not like we
gotta give them the Mona Lisa.

We've got the mark, okay?

Meredith Gates.

We've got the bait, Mondrian.

We fake the right painting,
and all we gotta tell her

is how many noughts to put on the check.

- Let's take a walk.

Have you heard of Icarus?

- 'Course I have.

He's a Bond villain, ain't he?

- Icarus flew too close
to the sun and got burned.

- Well, Mickey, guys like
me, we don't get burned.

We get tanned.

- And what if we're jinxed?

- We talking about the grifter's jinx?

- Albert getting strapped
by that gangster,

then you picking up an extra bullet.

- You know, we're not accountants, are we?

Shit happens.

- No, it's a bad vibe.

I can feel it, and it's
right on our heads.

- I've told you before, boys,

Lara Croft is never gonna reply.

- No, this is a website for art dealers

and antique buffs to swap stories.

I'm running an e-mail
conversation with meself.

In Dutch.

- So what are your two fictional
Dutchmen talking about?

Mickey said no.

- I know, but look.

We got two art dealers,
okay, and they're gossiping

about this new painting.

And one guy says to the other
one, "Keep this to yourself."

Now if that don't create a
buzz, nothing will, will it?

- So you wanna draw
Meredith Gates into this?

- If word gets to her that there's this

mysterious new Mondrian out there,

then certainly that'll
be a lot better for us.

Marks are so much softer when they think

they're the ones doing all the running.

- And you think this will persuade Mickey

to go along with it?

- There's no jinx.

When we pull this one off he'll see that.

- He'll need a lot of persuading.

- I know he will.

That's why I'm working on it.

- Mr. Hook.
- Hello.

- Sorry to keep you waiting.

- Not at all.

And this must be?

- Jeremiah Hook.

Bea Watson, art journalist.

- I'm not entirely sure
why I'm here, Mr. Hook.

- Don't tell me you're
here under false pretenses.

- There we go.

I took the liberty.

- Yes, you did.

- I can't stay long.

I've got a piece to deliver
to Art World magazine

and I can't afford to upset the editor.

- Sure, okay, let's cut
straight to the chase.

Mr. Hook is an international
antiques dealer.

He's recently come into
possession of a small oil.

- What sort of oil?

- Well, it was signed by
Piet Mondrian, dated 1902.

- There's a buzz about a
new work on the Internet.

Can I see it?

Do you have it here in town?

- What you could do for us,
Bea, is authenticate it.

And in return, well, I'd
give you exclusive rights.

- To what?

- Well, I may buy this painting.

It is small but it is significant.

- I certainly could interest
a few gallery publications.

But I'm sorry, I wouldn't
describe an early Mondrian

as all that significant
to the wider world.

I have to go.

- So do I.

Forget we had this meeting.

There's no story here.

I'm sorry to have wasted your time.

- What do you mean, there's no story here?

- Just that.

- Actually, there is a story.

- Actually, there isn't a story.

- It's more than just a
regular landscape, isn't it?

- No, of course not.

1902? No.

- All right, Mr. Hook.

If you change your mind.

Oh, sorry.

I really have to go.

Bye.

- Bye-bye.

- Hello?

- How did you know I'd turn up?

- Because I scented the invite.

Did you have to go and gut
the whole plan like a kipper?

- Did you not just see
what happened there?

Waiter.

She wasn't interested until she thought

that I wasn't interested.

Now she's intrigued.

- Sorry, we can't drink this.

It's sour.

- Remember, Tip Jones is the
best forger in the business,

but I trust him about as far
as I can throw a horsebox.

He plays mind games.

He'll have you chasing your own tail.

He's got a brain like a steel trap.

- There we go.

- Well, you hear about
people reacting badly

to anesthetic, don't you?

- Hernia op.

Bloody tragic.

- Tip?

Tip?

I'm Mickey Stone.

- All right, we're out of here.

- Wait, wait.

- What for?

If we stay any longer, he's
gonna sing "I'm A Little Teapot"

and he's gonna poop in his hand.

- The show is over, Tip.

We're here on serious business.

If you do this job right,
you're in for 100 grand.

So stop playing silly buggers.

- 150, take it or leave it.

Belonged to the Venus de Milo.

Going out to Texas next week.

So this gallery owner's trying
to get me on a forgery rap.

Forgery, moi?

I don't forge, I clone.

Anyhow, the whole trial's
redundant if I can't stand.

Hence the performance.

- Right.

- So what do you think
of this Mondrian scam?

- Pre-Picasso.

Very cute.

Total cobblers, of course.

You wouldn't fool Saatchi's pet gerbil.

- But I thought you were good.

- Forgeries are generally
sold to wealthy idiots.

Movie stars, Japanese fishing barons

who never bother to get them checked out.

You want to flog a fake
Mondrian to Meredith Gates,

a leading Mondrian collector.

- Okay.

What do you need?

- A dozen Italian horsehair
brushes, sizes four to nine.

Reconstituted canvas circa the period.

Not that that will get us
around the carbon-dating.

Oh yes, and an original.

- Come on.

We can get you a print.

- I've got pictures in books.

I need to smell, caress, taste.

I need a real Mondrian sitting beside me.

After all, you're talking
about originating a new piece.

This has to be perfect.

- Hold on, calm down.

All right, all right.

Can you hold on to that, please?

- Sit there.

- That was a shambles.

Now get me Miss Gates.

I need to speak with her at once.

- What?

- She's in Bristol.

- Well, get her on the phone.

A man walks into your gallery and

lifts a valuable painting off the wall.

Why wasn't it bolted down?

Where's your laser protection?

I've seen garden centers
with better security.

- There's the cameras.

- What's the downtime on the Mondrians?

Those paintings must be out
of shot for, what, 30 seconds?

- Only 20, as it goes.

And who are you?

- Debonair Security Assessments.

As you may be aware,
there's been some recent

theft attempts on London galleries.

The Arts Council asked us to check

what measures you have in
place for insurance purposes.

- Well, we have the X-ray machines,

and all the frames are tagged

in the bottom left-hand corner.

- You don't tag the canvases?

- No, Miss Gates' instructions.

No one tampers with the paintings.

Look, I think I'd better call Miss Gates.

- Yeah, recall her from Bristol early.

She won't be annoyed, will she?

- Just tell me one thing.

We did all right, didn't we?

- Gents, it is not often
that a Debonair assessor

is impressed, but this one just learnt

the meaning of the word humility.

- Here's the period canvas you asked for.

- This is for you.

It won't pass close scrutiny,

but it should do the job for the swap.

- Good.

I'll be back with the original.

- Hello.

- One, please.

Rest of my party are on the coach.

- Party?

- Mondrian Appreciation Society.

- All right.

- I don't know if it's the economy of form

or the elegance of his asymmetry,

but he just sets me alight.

Is that crazy?

What's this?

- That is the visitors' record.

You can sign it, if you like.

- I'll sign it.

I'll sign right now.

- To you, free.

- Oh, thank you.

That is so kind of you.

- We handle these Mondrians all the time.

It's another day at the office, really.

- Oh, stop it, stop it.

I like that crazy Dutch Neo-Plasticist.

- They're kind of late, don't you think?

Where are the loos?

I'm peeing my pants.

Straight through.

- Thanks.

See you.

- Wait.

Where are you off to?

- Huh, what do you mean?

- What about your coach party?

- Oh, wouldn't be the same.

I like things a little more one-to-one.

Know what I mean?

Bye.

- For future reference, it's a good idea

when transporting a painting
like this to use a muslin bag.

Non-abrasive.

You gotta help me rearrange this place.

Tables there.

Chairs in a row.

Mondrian believed in order.

So must I.

- It really does it for you, doesn't it?

Art.

- Doesn't it for you?

- Listen, mate.

My mum had a painting.

Got it out of The Mail on Sunday.

Massive.

A lot of dogs playing snooker.

- Brushes?

These need to be distressed in vinegar.

- Already done.

- And here are the oils you asked for.

High lead content as requested.

Got them off the net.

Different suppliers for each tube.

- You asked for five tins of pilchards.

Why?

- It's a beach scene, so
I took a trip to Brighton.

Here's a pot of he seawater.

And here, I thought if he
was painting on a beach

the sand could have gotten
caught on the sticky canvas.

- In 11 days an original
Mondrian from 1902

will be in your possession.

It will, for a brief time,
fool the greatest art experts

in the world and it will dethrone Picasso

as the father of modern art.

Or it will be spotted immediately

and we will all go to
prison for several years.

- May I take these matches?

- Yeah, sure.

- Hi.

Sorry.

- I'm so glad you called.

- I'm sorry about the other day.

I was a bit hasty.

You can't be too careful in my business.

- Tell me, was this piece
uncovered in Amersfoort?

- Let's get some drinks.

- Come on, Amersfoort.

- Excuse me.

Could I have a cranberry juice and

a Sea Breeze for the lady?

- A town in central Holland,
Mondrian's birthplace.

- Yes, it would have been nice

if it had been uncovered
in Mondrian's hometown.

But alas, not.

- Do you have a photo?

- No, I carry nothing with me.

But I cannot stress the explosive
significance of this find.

- Well, I've been thinking about that.

Could this be a piece from
the Spanish expedition?

- Why do you say that?

- Hang fire, we're on to it.

- Albert.

- The Great Spanish Exhibition of 1921.

- The Great Spanish...

- The Great Spanish Exhibition of 1921.

- No, I'm talking about
Mondrian's trip to Spain.

- Of course.
- Expedition.

- Expedition.

What a deaf cretin.

- Hurry up.

He's sitting there like a lemon.

- Hold on, hold on.

- Mr. Hook, you're leaving me dangling.

- Okay, you think that this
piece heralds from the trip

Mondrian took to Spain
with his best friend

Simon Maris in 1901, Well.

- As you know, no writing...

- Or painting remains from that trip.

- Possible, though, that
he might have met Picasso.

- Do you think he may have
met Picasso out there?

- I knew it!

You've uncovered an abstract
Mondrian that predates Cubism.

- I have a small painting
that needs verification.

I would like an expert
journalist on hand to assist.

The wider world will have to be convinced.

- And they will be.

In an exclusive.

Why me?

Why pick a fledgling writer?

- You're not a cynic.

You have no ax to grind.

And you strike me as
being open to adventure.

Just you wait.

You wait until you can
see it and touch it.

- When?
- Very soon.

You do believe me, don't you?

- Actually, I do.

- Nobody does it better.

- Makes me feel sad for the rest.

- Yeah, right.

Oh, sorry, Stacie.

You already knew about

Meredith Gates' interest, didn't you?

- Did I?

- I know Mr. Pomeroy is keen to buy it,

and he's seeing Miss Gates today.

Now, in fact.

He told me.

- Well, he may be looking
for a buying partner.

- Well, he's dancing
with a scorpion there.

I have to go.

- Your bill, sir.

- My friends are picking up the tab.

So you went to see Meredith
Gates behind my back?

- All I did was froth
her up a bit, you know.

I told her I was gonna buy the
painting for half a million.

You know, just take a gamble on it.

She got all agitated.

I'm telling you, Mickey, when we're ready

to show Meredith this
painting she's gonna be

so jazzed about it she's gonna snap it up

for 500k minimum just to
swipe it from under my nose.

- Seems this meeting has
been all for the good.

- Yes, definitely.

Very good, very good.

There is a teensy-weensy
little problem, though.

Meredith thinks I run an
import-export company in West Ken.

And she's coming over tomorrow
at 11 with her decision.

- Good morning,
my little furry friend.

- Rats.

- Good morning, Miss Gates.

- Morning.

Are you really going to
pay half a million for it?

- My ceiling's actually 250,000,

but I'm looking for a
partner who can match me.

- You know, if this is genuine,

it could be worth several million.

- Despite appearances, Mr.
Hook is not a wealthy man.

And if it does turn out to
be worth millions, well,

I think it's only right
that he gets a cut.

- Mr. Hook will only get what we give him.

If he wants any more, he
can burn up his 500,000

chasing me through the courts.

Right, so.

We will view the painting
at my gallery together.

If I am satisfied,

then I will consider going 50-50 with you.

- That's incredibly generous, Miss Gates.

- So you'll arrange this
meeting with Mr. Hook?

- Sure.

I've also invited a
journalist, Bea Watson.

I thought if this thing's genuine,

then I think we should bang the drum.

- Only if it's good news.

- Bye.

Oh yes, we're on.

- We are so far from the jackpot.

- Hey, any time you wanna
give me some encouragement,

all right, just feel free.

- This is not a club.

You're not earning a scouting
badge for Grifting Grade Four.

We are taking a person
down for a lot of money.

And we have so many hoops to jump through,

not least of which is a
painting we haven't seen yet

painted by someone we can't trust an inch.

And we are also currently art thieves.

- Cool.

- It is not cool, Danny!

We're not crooks.

We're miners.

We mine people's greed.

And these people can be dangerous.

Look, all I'm saying is that
given our current form I'm,

well, I'm not about to start
letting off champagne corks.

- Okay, then why do it if
you don't believe in it?

- Because we need the money.

- What do we need the money for?

- You'll see.

- Will I like it?

- Come on, we've got a lot of work to do.

The painting will be
ready in just one week.

- All right, how am I looking?

- Beautiful.

- Okay, so how about a good-luck kiss?

- Let's go.

- Where's Meredith?

- I hope you don't mind me
bringing my godchildren along.

They're on their way to
a sixth birthday party.

The theme is Renaissance.

Off you go and play.

They grow up so fast, don't they?

- Cheeky little fellows, aren't they?

- So, where's the painting?

- Well, Mr. Hook is bringing
it even as we speak.

- Come on.

Pilchards!

What is this thing with pilchards?

Hello.

- Good, you found the key.

- Where's the painting, Tip?

- Silver case, top of the cupboard.

- Excuse me.

- What the hell is going on?

- Mr. Pomeroy's assistant.

Oh, Mr. Hook.

- I've got the case, but it's locked.

There's no way of getting
into it without a detonator.

- That's no problem.

Hang on a minute.

- Hello.

- We need a code to get into the case.

- Yeah, you can relax on that.

I've got that, I've got that right here.

- Text it to me.

- Absolutely.

- Right.

Albert, we're running late.

Where are you?

- In position.

Don't worry about us,
just do your job, son.

- Right.

- You did bring your half?

- Yeah, ma'am.

Banker's draft for 250,000 right here.

- Two minutes, I'm leaving.

That's it, I'm leaving.

Come along, my cherubs.

- Sorry.

Sorry to have kept you
good people waiting.

Traffic was awful.

- Is this it?

- Yes.

Excited?

- Yes, indeed.

- This case is security-coded

and I have the code here on my phone.

- Signed Piet Mondrian, 1902.

It's in a style he wasn't
supposed to employ until...

- Years later.

- There's quite a bit of dust
embedded in the top layer.

Picture has a smell.

It's fishy.

Rank.

Decay.

Bears many of the hallmarks
that Mondrian used later on,

but it's interesting.

There's a hesitancy about it.

Almost like an artist
trying something very new

and scaring himself.

My God.

- Well, if it's not a
fake then my God, indeed.

- This is only an initial
assessment, of course,

but it would appear that
this work bears the traits

of a Mondrian painted at
the turn of the century.

But this picture was painted
on a fine-quality canvas.

Mondrian wouldn't have wasted a top canvas

on experimental work that
was unlikely to sell.

- Well, he might have done.

- The man was meticulous
and he was frugal.

Most of his work was done on cardboard.

- Perhaps it was a commission.

- A commission?

No, nobody would have paid for

something like this back then.

Anyway, if it was a
commission, we'd have records.

It would seem, Mr. Hook,
that the circus is over.

- What if he was hired to
paint something traditional

so he splashed out on a good canvas,

but the commission fell
through, so he reused it?

The canvas.

- Yeah.

I like the sound of that.

- Follow me.

If what you say is correct, Miss Watson,

then there should be
another painting hidden

underneath here somewhere.

Nothing.

As far as I'm concerned, you can burn it.

- Wait.

If I adjust the resolution.

- A pentimento!

A hidden landscape underneath.

You see?

When the commission fell through,

Mondrian must have been furious.

He vented his frustration
in something radical.

A beach scene like no other, ever.

- Mr. Hook.

I will give you 500,000
pounds right now, in cash.

- Sorry.

What about my half?

- In cash, Mr. Hook.

- I might get five times that at auction.

- If it's genuine.

- You still don't think so?

- I'll put it this way.

I'm persuaded to take a risk.

But only if I have sole possession.

- I've got a banker's draft
here for 250,000 pounds!

- Mr. Hook, do we have a deal?

- Don't you dare, Hook.

- Deal.

- I've played a blinder
here, I'm telling you.

Even when Meredith discovers it's a fake

she's not gonna want to
do anything about it.

There's no way she's gonna want her name

splashed all over the papers.

So, minus Tip's fee and other
expenses, we're looking at...

- 60 grand each.

That dream beach house of mine

is starting to look a whole lot closer.

- I can't believe you went for all that

bad karma shit, Mickey.

A man creates his own
luck in this world, son.

- 150,000.

- Ta very much.

But I'll take the lot, if you don't mind.

- What?

- Right now a friend of mine
is waiting to call the police.

They will tell the cops a Mondrian

has been stolen from the Gates Gallery.

They will give them your names.

The cops will arrest you.

They will find said painting.

You will go to prison.

And what is more,

your identities will be
blown by the national press.

And that will make it very hard for you

to pull off any more cons
in sophisticated society.

But there is salvation.

Give me the half mil,
the call is never made.

- Do you ever shut up, Tip?

You've got all these
fine things around you,

haven't you, yeah?

You've got all your clever
talk and all your yap.

But you know what you are?

You're just a tosser.

- Caravaggio was a vicious queen.

Michelangelo shagged little boys.

Bacon was an alcoholic.

And Gauguin married a 13-year-old girl.

Welcome to the art world.

Just like your world, Danny.

We are merely cockroaches
with good tailors.

So who is this friend of yours

that's gonna call the cops then, Tip?

- I don't think you need to know.

Easy, easy.

You can learn a lot from Mickey.

He knows how to behave.

- I certainly do.

10 seconds, I reckon.

- 10 seconds?

Until what?

- I called them earlier and I think

I just heard a car pull up outside.

Three, two, one.

- What is this?

- D.S. Martins, Fraud Squad.

- Yes, come in, officer.

- You remember me, don't you, Mr. Jones?

We've had a call from a neighbor.

He says he saw you walking
in the park, Mr. Jones.

Now, what with our
investigation under suspension

on medical grounds we felt
it best to pop down here

and have a little chat.

- We'll be off then.

- Bye-bye, Mr. Jones.

Nice to see you.

- Lot of money here, sir.

- Yes, nothing to do with us.

- So hang on, you knew he was gonna turn.

- I was pretty sure.

- We could have lost the lot back there.

- I told you, flying close to the sun.

- But Tip can still turn
us in with that painting.

- Hang on now, what's she doing here?

- Very clever.

Give them back.

- Danny, this is the
person who calls the cops

and tells them where to
find a stolen Mondrian.

Forgers often use students
to fence their forgeries.

- She's a grifter?

- I'm a serious arts writer, thank you.

- Where did you meet Tip?

At college?

That's where they usually recruit.

- Everyone at college knew Tip.

After you visited him, Tip called me

and we sort of came up with this.

- Great.

So what happens now?

- How about you keep your money

and I'll hang on to the Mondrian.

- No, the Mondrian has to go back.

That's the way we work.

- Well, it's not the way I work.

- Well, if you can live with that.

- What are you doing here?

- How'd it go, boys?

- Not bad.

- You all right?

- Yeah, I'm all right.

Don't worry, it was my fault.

I stepped out in front of you.

- I didn't even see you.

- Can't bend me leg.

I landed awkward.

I think I can't bend it at all.

- It never happened to me before.

- Oh, good heavens, look
at that, I can move it.

Don't worry, love, I'll be fine.

Yeah, it was nice working the flop again.

- So how did you know she was lying?

- At the cocktail bar.

- You do believe me, don't you?

She revealed a tell.

- Actually, I do.

- I double-checked it.

Excited?

The throat-slash.

A classic tell.

- Yes, indeed.

- Usually associated
with feelings of guilt.

- So you double-guessed the double-cross.

- I just took out some insurance.

- Well, take away the expenses,

we've still got 300k in the pot.

- 200.

100 is going somewhere else.

- Where?

No, no, no way.

No, you can't.

- Danny, I'm sorry.

But if we don't, this man
loses everything because of us.

- And that'll jinx us forever.

- You don't believe all
this crap, do you, Ash?

- We gotta do it, Danny.

- Stace?

- Let it go, Danny.

- Look, 100 grand pays
Naveen back and makes amends.

Danny, we're not thieves.

- Danny, come on.

- This was my grift, all right?

My grift!

You should've told me.

- You're right, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Okay, Danny, you decide what happens next.

Danny, come on.

Only please make sure
whatever decision you make

you can live with.

Because what's done is done.

- As you know, the receivers are in.

So sorry, everyone.

- Ah, bollocks.

It's only money, isn't it?

Anyway, I've had a great new idea.

I want you to clear your
minds, picture this.

We've got half of a cow,
a small Shetland pony,

and some embalming...

- That's great, tell me later.

- I'm glad this silly matter is settled.

Come on, my round.

- That envelope from Rachel's lawyer.

- Uh-huh.

- Did you ever open it?

- Yeah, I've decided to pay her off.

- Jinx lifted?

- Well.
