The Knights of Prosperity

- Season 1

(2007)

Eugene Gurkin had always wanted to open his own bar, yet never had the money to do it. After one of his co-workers dies, Eugene comes up with the idea to pull together a team, dubbed The Knights of Prosperity, and rob a famous celebrity's apartment.

The Knights rely on Louis to seduce Simone Cashwell, the head of Mick Jagger's security company, in order to get a security code.

The Knights learn self-defence in order to be able to deal with Mick Jagger's security detail. Meanwhile, Eugene tries to keep a lid on his jealousy when their instructor takes a shine to Esperanza.

The Knights try to find their way inside Mick Jagger's security company. Rockefeller arranges an interview with Burton Security for a position, and the Knights attempt to get him a fake ID.

Eugene is persuaded by the other Knights to date Ralph, a Burton Security guard, and to seduce him into revealing information about Mick Jagger.

For their plan to succeed, The Knights of Prosperity have to use Gary's estranged family, who he has not seen in more than 15 years.

Esperanza's former boyfriend tracks her down and arrives to claim Esperanza as his property, with the intention of returning her to Colombia.

The big day finally comes, but Eugene accidentally locks the Knights and himself in Mick Jagger's panic room.

With the Mick Jagger scheme over and done with, the Knights must find a new celebrity target. Eugene poses as a famous architect so they can become acquainted with talk show host Kelly Ripa, but the new plan goes awry when he falls in love with her.

The Knights want to rent the expensive apartment next to their new target, and to raise the rent money, they kidnap Louis with hopes his wealthy father will pay the ransom.

Upon hearing comedian Ray Romano is in possession of an expensive diamond ring, the Knights plot to steal his safe.

The Knights of Prosperity hire an ex-con to help them open Ray Romano's safe and get the diamond ring out.

Eugene suggests that they try to embezzle money from Ray Romano's film company, and the first step is to get Louis a job there by helping him make a movie.
