Hustle - Season 1 Episode 5

A rich, bitchy, and recently divorced woman (Tamzin Outhwaite) is the target of the team's next con, having ended her marriage over the rows and actions between herself and her ex (such as being locked in a lift when her ex knew she was claustrophobic).

The team decides to do the Congreve con (defrauding a vengeful woman) and everything goes according to plan until Mickey's feelings for the woman start to get into the way, conflicting with his role as a con artist.

Eventually, he decides not to continue with the con, even revealing who he is to her, and for a moment it looks like the group will be walking away from this one. But when the mark suddenly offers him money to set up her former husband, in regards to certain activities that were occurring in the hotel chain he now owns, Mickey may not be thinking as straight as he should, because he soon accepts.

"Always beware a woman scorned".
