Sibling Rivalry | |
| The Company You Keep / int_19209d54 | comment |
Sibling Rivalry: Connor Maguire is not happy at all to learn Daphne is his half-sister, as she's also their father's lieutenant in the US while he expects to run everything. Later on Charlie suggests that she's his actual lieutenant. Connor is motivated to go against Daphne after this, in spite of her maintaining they can work together. | |

Dragon Ascendant | |
| The Company You Keep / int_286eaf85 | comment |
Dragon Ascendant: The opening con has Charlie accusing gangster Patrick Maguire's aide of "being the one in charge," which the man denies. By the end of the episode, Maguire has been busted and the woman, Daphne, has now become the boss. It turns out though she'll only run things on the outside when he's in prison, and she's loyal to him (it's revealed that he's her father). | |

Hollywood Law | |
| The Company You Keep / int_3322dd48 | comment |
Hollywood Law: Emma is a CIA agent who investigates international crime. However, the CIA's remit is gathering intelligence about threats abroad to the US. What she does is something the FBI would do. Further, the CIA has no legal right to surveil people in the US, which she and other agents are shown as doing (not that this has never happened, but this is portrayed as above board). | |

Kansas City Shuffle | |
| The Company You Keep / int_4bfcfa7c | comment |
Kansas City Shuffle: How Charlie takes down Maguire: He makes Maguire think Charlie switched a truck full of guns for an empty one. Maguire leads his gang and the buyer to the truck, opening it to find the guns inside. Charlie says he knew Maguire would expect a swap and "the trick was there was no trick." When the FBI shows up, Maguire figures it's another scam and gets into a shootout with them. Between the guns, the millions in cryptocurrency and trying to kill federal agents, Maguire would have been doing to jail if not for a sniper taking him out. | |

The Reveal: People can't figure out why Daphne remains so loyal to Maguire when he's in prison and she doesn't try to take control of his operations completely. However, it turns out she's his daughter, which they didn't expect as he's white while Daphne's clearly herself a woman of color (her mother was black, as seen in a photo she has) as shown by "A Sparkling Reputation". | |

"Not So Different" Remark: Daphne claims after Emma tries to sway her from her criminal pursuits that cops and spies (Emma's CIA) are criminals as well who break laws whenever it's useful for them. Birdie points out to Emma how con artistry and CIA tactics for undercover deception are very much alike. | |

In "The Art of the Steel" it turns out Birdie has placed a tracker on her dad Leo's phone so she can tell where he is, given his dementia might make him get lost. | |

Everyone Has Standards: The Nicolettis have a code of honor of only targeting the corrupt and criminal rather than conning innocent people. In "Against All Odds," the family's old con man buddy Jonah talks them into helping him fleece a rich woman who he's even "engaged" to. When they realize the woman is truly trying to help others with her money and work, they tell her what's happening and enlist her to con Jonah. | |

Locked Out of the Loop: Obviously, both Charlie and Emma are unaware of who the other truly is and that they're both involved with the Maguire case. Emma's family thinks she works for a "logistics firm," unaware she's with the CIA. She finally admits it to her brother. Patrick Maguire it turns out had never told his son Connor Daphne was his half-sister. He had to learn it from other people. | |

Chain of Deals | |
| The Company You Keep / int_f2159a54 | comment |
Chain of Deals: Daphne tries to get into the gunrunning business but the contact at the arms manufacturer can only steal three out of every hundred rifles produced without drawing suspicion, not nearly enough to be profitable. Charlie suggests getting the rifle discontinued so the company offloads all their newly surplus product. The owner of the company is willing to switch to a new line of Smart Guns as long as the government pays for it. A congressman, convinced of the prestige he'll get, agrees to fund the project as soon as the Department of Defense places an order. The Under Secretary of Defense agrees to place the order, with the understanding that some of the newly surplus non-smart rifles go to conflict zones to keep the fighting going so America can profit from the chaos. | |

Hustling the Mark: A lot of the Nicoletti cons run this way, but a big one is in "Against All Odds" as they run a scam on fellow con artist Jonah. Of course, the Nicolettis know firsthand what that's like, as they had no idea Tina was setting them (especially Charlie) up to rob them. | |
