Small Time Gangster

- Season 1

(2011)

Tony is looking forward to a quiet Christmas, until he gets a text from work advising him that he's got a job. At the pub, Darlene - Tony's connection to the criminal world - needs him to collect from a lowlife bum behind in his payments.

Still distracted by visions of Artie's bloody demise, Tony struggles to make love to Cathy. He meets Charlie, his new apprentice, to show him the ropes.

Collecting from a low-life client, Tony's nerves desert him again, leading to an unwise confession. Meanwhile, Cathy's friendship with Brent takes a new turn when he shows up at a family BBQ.

A rocket launcher has been stolen. Depressed and unmotivated, Tony has to attend a wedding with Cathy. He's acting strangely, being short with the kids, and she's getting suspicious.

Trying to cope on her own, Cathy and the kids get an unwelcome visitor. Meanwhile, Tony employs an unusual tactic to extract payment from a client and enjoys a racy night out with Darlene and Steve.

When Tony wants "out," Les decides to take matters into his own hands, despite the consequences. Meanwhile, Mel and Charlie rekindle their romance, while Tony's temper erupts at Matt's soccer match.

With the pressure from Barry mounting, Tony and Darlene accept a dangerous job from Sydney, acting as security for an exchange of cash for drugs.

Tony receives bad news about Les from an unlikely source and decides to confront his demons once and for all. But nothing goes as planned and he finds himself facing the biggest decision of his life.
