Freddie McGraw discovers Teddy Bass is behind the thefts

After a valuable coin and an antique statue are stolen, Dominic McGraw (Peter Ferdinando) asks Inspector Dowd (James Barriscale) to hunt down the culprits.

Gal Dove (James McArdle) makes the daring decision to hold on to the valuable antique to find out about Teddy Bass' (Stephen Moyer) masterplan.

In the episode's final moments, Gal confronts Teddy, delivering the antique and questioning Teddy's true intentions. It becomes clear that the heists go beyond mere financial gain or messing with the McGraws. Teddy proposes a journey for Gal to uncover the deeper truth.

A mysterious figure, concealed behind a helmet and exuding agony, aims a gun at Teddy. Unfazed by the unexpected visitor, Teddy appears to recognize him. Could it be Freddie?

The secrets Teddy holds for Gal are shrouded in mystery. The upcoming episodes hold the key to unraveling these answers.
