-->'''Isaac:''' The simplest way for us to play you was to make you think your plan was workin'. [...] First rule of con, baby: always let the mark think he's in control.
* BoxedCrook: Three cons use their unique skills on behalf of the FBI so that they can stay out of prison.
* DisguisedInDrag: In the pilot, while Charlie is doing his part at the bank, a brunette in red is occasionally shown walking around. It turns out to be Alphonse, who says the red dress was the only thing he could find in his size.
Added DiffLines:
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: On occasion, there will be friction amongst the trio during a job, due to tactics and contrasting personalities. As Isaac said in the pilot, the possibility of ending up in jail frays the nerves a bit.

''Players'' is a TV drama that ran on Creator/{{NBC}} from October 1997 to May 1998. It revolved around three convicts--Isaac "Ice" Gregory (played by Ice-T), Alphonse Royo (Costas Mandylor), and Charlie O'Bannon (Frank John Hughes)--who were paroled to the FBI to use their skills to catch other cons. After the pilot (based in New York), the trio worked in Los Angeles under Agent Christine "Chris" Kowalski (Mia Korf). Episodes were basically bad-guy-of-the-week fare, though there was some character development throughout.
