As Gal Dove and Don Logan accompany Teddy on a journey to Spain, they meet Roger Riley (Ralph Brown), the mastermind behind the previous two heists from the McGraws.

Roger places trust in Gal and Don and tells them the details of his mission. The small-time criminal duo learns about the history of Stephan Eaton, a white-collar gangster married to the Dutchess of Harewood, who has built an empire from making illegal deals.

Gal and Don are given the task of stealing 'Eye of Diamond', a high-value diamond that Eaton absconded with, from the Museum of Johannesburg, after brokering an oil deal using his blue blood connection.

After the previous two heists, Eaton is set to transfer the diamond to his heavily secured private residence with high-level security.

Despite the dangers, Gal accepts Roger Riley's offer. Throughout the episode, memories flood back as Gal reflects on his time spent with DeeDee Harrison (Sarah Greene) back in London.

To aim higher, Gall recalls his last conversation with DeeDee where she says, "Do one thing for me. Don't think small." This prompts Gal to instantly say 'yes' to Roger's mission of stealing 'Eye of Bombay' from Eaton's highly secured private residence.

Four episodes of 'Sexy Beast' are available on Paramount+.
