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.

“Crime is naught but misdirected energy. So long as every institution of today, economic, political, social, and moral, conspires to misdirect human energy into wrong channels; so long as most people are out of place doing the things they hate to do, living a life they loathe to live, crime will be inevitable.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
