[[caption-width-right:350:This is one awkward family reunion...]]

Rex was a wreck, doing drugs and in debt, and he thought it was best it was to leave Emma and Sean with their mother. When Rex found out their mothers death 5 years later, he never went back to find them on the selfish assumption that they were being cared for when that was far from true.]]
* ImagineSpot: Sean punching Rex in the nose as revenge happens within his head.
* Macguffin: The notebook. It's got child handwriting that has maths adding up to almost £75,000 in unpaid child support.
* ParentalAbandonment: Rex Kennedy left Emma and Sean when they were 3 and 5 respectively. Safe to say, Sean never forgot about his departure, and Emma bottles her anger up.
* RunningGag:
** Eddie trying to find a use for some expensive champagne.
** Ash reminding Sean about the £50,000 he lost with the failed briefcase swap.
* TranquilFury: Emma throughout the episode. She is clearly upset about her father leaving, but acts more mature about it. She loses it when [[spoiler:they confront him later on, and rightly chews him out over being extremely selfish.]]
* ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman: Eddie is a very good painter, and paints an authentic wartime mural ad. This never comes up again.
* TimeForPlanB: The con is successful, but only because [[spoiler:the rest of the crew had a contingency plan if Sean bottled or things went wrong]].
* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: Mickey warns Sean against doing a con out of revenge, and is [[spoiler:proven correct when Sean admits as such later on to Ash]].
* WantingIsBetterThanHaving: Something Sean learns the hard way is that conning your old man is not the way to bury the hatchet, and his plans for revenge were self-sabotaged by his need to find out what went wrong with Rex.
