** Apparently in an earlier version of the script, Fagin borrowed money from Sykes to bet in an illegal poker tournament, possibly to help cover living costs, before losing all of it. If we were to assume this was the same case in the movie, Fagin may have been able to convince Sykes that he would get his money back once he got his winnings.

* Shouldn't the collision between Sykes' car and the subway train have made the news? Surely an explosion like that can't go unnoticed in the Big Apple. Even if nobody had smartphones in the late 80s to record it, the surveillance cameras for street traffic and businesses should have got a glimpse of it. And if anyone noticed the electric scooter driving down the bridge rails right after the explosion, they'd put the peices together and somehow Fagin and the Foxworths might get into some legal trouble with the city for all those traffic violations, among other things.

** Sykes was going to kill Fagin, and you can't be in even greater danger than that, right? So Fagin went from Sykes wanting to murder him to random mafia dudes ''maybe'' wanting to murder him. That's a small improvement. Not to mention that somebody else might take Sykes's place now, and not be too eager to off the man who made such a promotion possible. But yeah, people ''might'' get mad, but they've got no way to track it to Fagin in particular, let alone Fagin's dogs. Finally, Sykes died in a car accident, so the most logical conclusion is that he was driving drunk, or using the kind of substances you don't see in Disney movies.

** She's a kid, and wants her cat back, so it's not surprising that she'd risk it. Kids are less sensible than adults. And her caretaker, the only adult who could go with her, would most likely not let her go there at all, let alone let her use any of her father's money to pay the ransom for a cat that she didn't have parental permission to take care of in the first place.

** I really doubt that Sykes would’ve taken such an offer from Fagin that seriously. What evidence did he have that Oliver could be ransomed, a collar with his name on it? He could’ve stolen that off of someone else’s pet and stuck it on Oliver easily. Sykes might’ve even suspected that Fagin was trying to get him in trouble with the law.
** It’s also not that practical of a scheme to expect anyone to fork over a substantial amount of money for a cat that came from the gutter and was in their life for a very short time. Had Jenny’s parents been home when the ransom note came, they probably would’ve just bought her another cat.
*** Both of these explain why Sykes would insist that Fagin play out the ransom idea. But then why did Sykes kidnap Jenny to ransom her back to her parents? There wasn't that much evidence that she had rich parents who would have the money to paid off every penny that Fagin owed Sykes. Jenny's own allowance only amounts to a piggy bank, like my middle-class childhood finances did at her age. Granted ANY parents would pay through the nose to get there children out of a life and death situation, but my point still kind of stands that Sykes technically shouldn't have expected the Foxworth's to have such money either.
** In that case...it’s been a while since I’ve seen the film, but Oliver’s collar had an address on it, didn’t it? Sykes might’ve known that the address was from a well-off neighborhood, and was simply waiting to verify that Fagin’s story checked out. If this was the case, once Jenny came along, he could’ve reasoned she belonged to a wealthy family who would pay through the nose to get her back.
* Sykes was pretty heavily involved with the criminal underworld, and its implied that he was even associated if not a part of the mafia. So, wouldn't other unseemly individuals react badly to him being gone? Doesn't his death just place Fagin and the gang in even greater danger than before, or am I wrong?

** The trouble with borrowing money from Loan Sharks is that you tend to end up even poorer than when you started, with fun things like 500% interest per week. Fagin may not even have been homeless until he started borrowing money from Sykes.

* Why would Sykes even bother loaning cash to a bum like Fagin in the first place? Assuming he was always homeless, did Sykes really expect Fagin to pay him back?

** Well, because he would probably have to confess that he made deals with a loan shark, which is not exactly legal. That and the fact that Fagin is a thief (albeit a harmless one) must have been what kept him form seeking the police. It´s also possible that Sykes could have killed the policeman sent after him and for Fagin it would only make things worse if Sykes found out he was the one who tried to get him arrested.
