Hustle: Episode 18 (finale)

(S03E06) This was another great episode, but I was kind of disappointed finale-wise. The characters didn't develop any further, the story's complications weren't much more intricate than those of the previous episodes, and the sexual tension was still virtually untouched (hasn't really been talked about since Season One). I guess this is because each and every episode wraps up really nicely so that, even if you watch them out of order, everything still makes sense. I want Hustle to do something extreme for once. Have the gang royally screw something up! Have a con go horribly wrong, resulting in the death of a member's loved one and the eventual crippling depression of the aforementioned member.

This episode revolved around a con that takes advantage of a
vengeful, rich wife, a con called "The Congeve" (named after William Congreve, the man who penned the phrase
"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned"... It's paraphrased, but that's how everyone knows
it, anyway). The group pondered the possibility of conning a woman named Katherine Winterborn, a real "psycho
bitch", as Stacie put it. After Ash revealed that he's been secretly caring for his ex-wife and former
grifter, June (she use to play "The Flop" like Ash, but after one went wrong, she suffered from partial brain
damage). He's desperate for some money to provide some proper care for her so the group eventually decide to go through
with the risky, but profitable, Congreve.TV Squad Hot Topics
