The Curse

Albert and his old mates meet up with Albert's brother-in-law, and he tells them of his new job at a warehouse that handles cash shipments in transit. When he lets them in to take some of the cash, they find something much more valuable.

News of the robbery spreads far and wide. At first, the gang are oblivious, as they stash the gold in a hiding place and Clive offers what he calls an 'even split'. Meanwhile, the police are sniffing around searching for clues.

At a loss for what to do with the stolen gold, the gang sets Mick to work hiding it all; Albert and Natasha tell Sidney to keep a low profile; Phil gets a call telling him to expect an important visitor.

A deeply troubled Albert throws himself into smelting gold as fast as Billy can sell it on. The money is rolling in thick and fast, but it's dirty money, and Billy tells the gang they can't spend any of it yet.

Months have passed. The money has been quietly rolling in, and while Albert and Natasha have kept a low profile, Mick and Phil, who haven't spoken to the others in a long while, are living it large.

The gang is running out of options; the police are getting closer, watching the cafe night and day; Ma McTavish is breathing down Mick's neck wanting her share of the gold.
