5	"[[Recap/InsideNo9S5E1TheRefereesAWanker The Referee's a W*er]]": Martin Rutherford is a corrupt referee hellbent on promoting his team, City, to the top league of English football. Upon the final league match of the season, Martin sets about sabotaging a game between Rovers and United in order to dock points from them by orchestrating a magnificent ZeroApprovalGambit: enlisting the help of several incompetent officials to assist him with the game, Martin sets out to sow division amongst them by having the weakest one, [[FatIdiot Oggy]], approached and bribed. He also makes sure to do the same to Phil, a junior referee who Martin knows will inform the authorities to save his career. Attempting to ruin the playing of United's star striker, [[TheAce Calvin]], Martin seduces him and then falsely gives him a LoveConfession right before the match in order to rattle him. Once on the field, Martin causes chaos by making deliberately poor refereeing decisions, until finally abandoning the game twelve minutes from time after successfully turning the crowd and the players against each other, causing each team to be docked points and ensuring that City will be promoted. Remaining completely above suspicion the whole time, Martin celebrates his victory upon being left alone, [[TheBadGuyWins having accomplished everything he set out to do]].

Using the concept of misdirection, Gabriel fools Neville into thinking that he is trying to expose him for the murder of Willy whilst actually planning to [[FrameUp frame him]] for the murder of his wife. Using a series of tricks whilst remaining above suspicion, Gabriel manipulates him into [[BetterManhandleTheMurderWeapon handling a razor blade]], revealing the combination of his safe by planting a tracking device on his ring and turning off his security camera late at night.
