4	[=M.I.6=] forces the crew to do their bidding; steal diamonds from a safety deposit box from an Syrian bank vault.
5	----
6	!!Tropes:
7	* BatmanGambit: The two [=M.I.6=] agents force the gang to steal some diamonds from a Syrian bank vault, telling them they can steal as much they want from the neighbouring vault (totalling £40 million in cash) as payment while secretly planning to renege on this and arrest them for stealing the money, making for a double-conviction. [[spoiler:However, Mickey sees through this and don't even go near the second vault, and sets up a spy camera in the hotel the agents are staying at to incriminate them.]] Before they meet up after the heist is over, Mickey also incites a CrazyPrepared plan just in case the agents NoSell [[spoiler:the secret footage of the confession and Mickey's lovemaking]].
8	* CallBack: Emma gets to use the derogatory nickname of "Lucy Bitchface" towards a video message for Lucy Britford.
9	* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: The [=M.I.6=] agents think they have this advantage to make them do what they want, as mentioned above. [[spoiler:Mickey and Ash also note that even if the heist is successful, [=M.I.6=] can just go back on their deal anyway]], but they do turn the events into their favor.
10	* TheJuggernaut: The agents have the muscle to appear and act like this. They are not governed by the usual laws of the police and are ''brutal'' to Mickey when he falls out of line in the interview room.
11	* MortonsFork: The events of this episode shows that if the team have no advance warning that the police are gunning for them, it's fairly easy for them to be caught red-handed, resulting in the crew being forced into essentially working for [=M.I.6=] with the threat of being jailed if they don't.
12	* OhCrap: Ash and Mickey ''really'' don't take well to the news that their handler is an [=M.I.6=] agent, one affiliated with Lucy Britford of all people.
13	* PasswordSlotMachine: Ash uses a gadget that does to crack the four digit security code to the employee entrance at a bank in "The Hush Heist".
14	* SequelEpisode: To [[Recap/HustleS6E1AndThisLittlePiggyHadMoney "And This Little Piggy Had Money"]], the first episode of Series 6. This episode has a minor appearance from Lucy Britford, the copper trying to take down the crew from that episode.
15	* SerialEscalation: In keeping with the shows' tradition of working for the other side, the crew are forced to work with the British Secret Service; M.I.6. The mere mention of their department sends Ash and Mickey into a minor OhCrap reaction.
