Hustle - Season 4 Episode 1- Biggest Con in Hollywood

With Mickey heading off to Australia to help pull off a major con with other grifters, Danny feels that it's time for himself to take the lead.

To prove he's ready for it, he comes up with an ambitious plan to sell the Hollywood sign to Texan film memorabilia fanatic Anthony Westley (Robert Wagner), a devious and corrupt man who often uses blackmail to get his way.

Once the crew arrives in LA (since the con has to occur there), Danny convinces Westley that the sign is being put up for sale to be replaced with a brand new one.

Westley's willing to pay big money to get his hands on the sign and will stop at nothing to ensure he wins the bid.

When a problem arises mid-con, Danny manages to overcome it swiftly, only for another one to occur that he doesn't expect. When the mark becomes cautious about parting with his cash, he decides to keep eyes and ears on his money at all times ($500,000), after he has given it to Ash (whilst he is in character).

Danny must devise a calm and well thought out plan to sneak it from right under the mark's nose.
