Return To Crime
Tim approached Christy Murray, in the hope that he would offer him some work, but Christy just laughed at him. Furious at being made to look foolish, Tim wanted revenge, so after gaining information from Lance about one of Christy's scams put his plan into action. He followed Christy to where he collected some stolen booze, and waited until Christy left the van unattended. Tim jumped in the van and drove off, but when he later tried to sell Christy back the booze at a profit, he was forced to give it back when Christy turned up with two mates.
Undeterred Tim persuaded Christy to let him take part in another heist on a lorry loaded with booze. Although they managed to steal the lorry, they were caught by the gang. Tim ended up in the Mersey while Marty was given a beating.
Christy was forced to give the gang all the booze from Bev's Bar while Tim ended up in hospital after being washed up on the banks of the Mersey. Christy was terrified of the gang, so when Tim pressured him for the information about them, he ran off. Later he enlisted Steve Murray's help and together they managed to steal a van full of booze from the gang without being seen.
Although they had a few problems finding buyers, they eventually sold all the booze around different pubs in the area. Tim was elated by his success and eager for another heist.

Famous quotes containing the words return to, return and/or crime:
“The house waited on your private beach
each day,
when you had the time to return to her.
And you so often had the time,
even when fury blew out her chimney,
even when love lifted the shingles....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“Research shows clearly that parents who have modeled nurturant, reassuring responses to infants’ fears and distress by soothing words and stroking gentleness have toddlers who already can stroke a crying child’s hair. Toddlers whose special adults model kindliness will even pick up a cookie dropped from a peer’s high chair and return it to the crying peer rather than eat it themselves!”
—Alice Sterling Honig (20th century)
“Remember that it’s never a crime in the face of humanity and enlightenment to distribute the works of the great humanists among the merchants and moneychangers of this godforsaken country... You better slip me the dough.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
