** The show structure is thrown out for this episode for the most part, as while there is a hastily put together con near the end involving [[spoiler:the real painting being switched for the fake one and two factions warring to get it back]], it's not the central focus of the story; getting Mickey back and finding the painting to save him is.
** This episode is also more comedic than usual too, with the return of Creator/BillBailey and his character "Cyclops", not seen since Series 5. Dolly has a lot of CringeComedy in her scenes, often forgetful of info the gang needs to get Mickey back, and Sean has to what appears to make out with her to get information from her (leaving him completely traumatised). Even Petre Sava is more AffablyEvil, despite his reputation for being merciless.

** The crew's plan to get the painting back from Harry Holmes, the new owner, is to steal it in broad daylight, as the alarm systems will be off. It was, until the police arrive and they retrieve the (fake) painting, putting the gang at square one. They do the same plana again in the same episode when Harry retrieves what they all think is the real painting again, with success.

!!Tropes:
* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: The crew have to find the painting, or Mickey is...well, as Sean later elaborates from what gory details he can muster after his research, shipped off into a human trafficking ring, which won't be pretty for Mickey.
* TheBusCameBack: For Cyclops.
* CrazyEnoughToWork: Given the time crunch, this happens twice:
** Ash calls the intercom of the [=McCrery=] brothers to reveal they were in a bind. The guys who had stolen the painting, but it had since been moved. Even he's surprised by the BrassBalls of Ash, and almost helps them on that alone.
** The crew's plan to get the painting back from Harry Holmes, the new owner, is to steal it in broad daylight, as the alarm systems will be off. It was, until the police arrive and they retrieve the (fake) painting, putting the gang at square one. They do the same plana again in the same episode when Harry retrieves what they all think is the real painting again, with success.
* DeathGlare: The crew gives one to Mickey when he asks why they didn't just steal the original painting.
* FatalFlaw: Vanity. Both get a fake painting to save face at the end to keep up their reputations among peers.
* GeniusDitz: Dolly, the art forger. She's intelligent enough to forge a Picasso painting, well-connected enough to know where all the paintings are, but suffers extreme levels of AttentionDeficitOohShiny when directly asked. The show doesn't make it clear if it's an act or a genuine mental condition that makes her forget things.
* HereWeGoAgain: PlayedForLaughs, as Mickey reads a false newspaper story of another painting being stolen, suggesting they'd make a fake to sell.
* HiddenInPlainSight: The real painting is in the hotel room the [=McCrary=] brothers are staying at, one which Emma and Ash frantically search. It's simply hanging up on a wall, something Ash only notices at the last minute when entering the room a second time.
--> ''"Now that's clever."''
* PassThePopcorn: When Harry and Pedre's gangs get into a fight, the crew watch on as they squabble for ownership of the painting.
* PersonAsVerb: Ash doing a "Mickey Waffle", which is when Mickey talks without any substance to buy time or not admit fault.
