The Curse

- Season 1

(2022)

Albert Fantoni and his wife Natasha run a greasy spoon cafe and are down on their luck. Their lives change when Natasha's brother Sidney tells them of his new job at a warehouse which handles cash shipments in transit.

News of the robbery has spread all over the world - but the crooks remain completely oblivious to what they have stolen as they stash their ill-gotten gains in a hiding place.

At a loss for what to do with the stolen gold, the gang set Mick to work hiding it all. Albert and Natasha tell Sidney to keep a low profile, while Phil gets a call telling him to expect an important visitor.

A deeply troubled Albert throws himself into smelting gold as fast as Billy can sell it on. The money is rolling in thick and fast, but it's dirty money, and Billy tells the gang they can't spend any of it yet.

Months have passed. The money has been quietly rolling in, and while Albert and Natasha have kept a low profile, Mick and Phil - who haven't spoken to the others in a long while - are living it large.

The gang is running out of options. The police are getting closer, watching the cafe night and day. And Ma McTavish is breathing down Mick's neck wanting her share of the gold.
