Hustle - Season 2 Episode 4 Comic Book Crime

The team has just recently bought the "Mona Lisa" of comic book artwork at auction: the front cover of Black Storm, Issue One.

Their latest con is to sell a forgery of the artwork to one of two avid collectors at the next auction by switching it with the original after they get verified before its sale, whilst selling the original piece to the other collector after the auction, with Albert and Stacie enticing the pair to up their bids, so to increase their profit.

But there's a spanner in the grifter's works: DI Samantha Phillips, a crooked cop who bullies, intimidates, and frames people and crooks, so to extort cash from them.

Her latest victim, Eddie, has just pointed her on to Mickey, in order to save his own skin. With a bent cop sticking close to both him and Danny and looking to take any money they make, Mickey is eager to do anything to get rid of her. But she's not someone who can be easily fooled by the simplest of tricks.
