Hustle - Season 7 Episode 2 - Get Rich Quick Con

The Hustle gang is near to closing a small con in a café until Joe Ryan – an old flame of Emma's – turns up unexpectedly and blows their cover.

Intrigued to see what he has been up to since the pair last met, Emma learns that Joe has had a great job, house, and family until his wife unexpectedly passed away.

While grieving, he found himself in debt and took out a short term loan from a company called Do$h4You, not checking the small print about their interest rates, which are ridiculously high to the point of being immoral; Joe is now close to losing his house after falling behind on his repayments.

Emma believes the team should go after the owner, whose base of operation is in Birmingham, Joe's hometown. While Albert stays behind in London as the baseman, the others discover their mark is eager to rise in class, so they offer her the very best – a title and a castle – the elaborate "Eiffel Tower" con.

Working fast, the team comes up against two problems; Emma starts to have renewed feelings for Joe, and the mark makes an unsuspected move.
