Hustle - Season 3 Episode 1 - Music Industry Scam

The crew are back and working their way back up after losing everything in a brief spell in Las Vegas, thanks to Danny (they're banned from every hotel in London and have lost all their money).

After their original target has a heart attack, Albert finds a replacement at the hospital: people-trafficker, and violent pub owner, Benny Frazier, who, whilst he lavishes his wife with jewelry (often violently undercutting the dealers he buys from), is more interested in Joey, his son, of whom he will do anything to help him, as Joey is an aspiring (but rather bad) rap artist.

The team decides to convince the mark that they represent a record company that can make the kid a star, getting him into an award show and even recording a demo that is played on the radio.

Everything seems to go smoothly, but an oversight by a member of the team (namely Albert) could soon prove costly when Danny fears the mark might be onto them, though Mickey does not think so.
