Hustle - Season 6 Episode 3 - Rare Tiger Heist

Albert is in Chinatown to close a deal with current mark, Phil, but finds that his brother-in-law is notorious hard-man Czech Charlie.

Then Phil collapses dead, so Albert tries to cut his losses and leave the con, but Charlie demands the return of the "original investment" by the end of the week. With the crew desperate for a fast mark, Sean finds Luke Baincross, an aging dishonest playboy facing money trouble after a divorce.

Amongst his possessions is a jewel-encrusted tiger that he cannot sell because of a clause in an ancestor's will. The team decides to pretend they are a specialist heist outfit who could steal the tiger so Baincross can claim the insurance.

Just as they manage to convince Baincross however, they discover he is already on an insurance watchlist and there will be no payout for taking the tiger from his family home.

Mickey must now figure out how to get the money before Albert's time runs out.
