Molly Higgins (Republic of Doyle)

Molly Higgins (Karen Cliche) is the hidden villainess of "Dirty Deeds", the premiere of the sixth and final season of Republic of Doyle (airdate October 15, 2014). She was the girlfriend of Seth Rankin, who was sent to prison after stealing two million dollars worth of diamonds from his uncle's jewelry store.
After Jake was imprisoned out of suspicion of killing William Cadigan Clarke, Seth approached Jake and offered to give Jake the diamonds to use as bail money if he helped him retrieve the key to the box where they were stored, which he believed was stolen by a fellow inmate. He also asked that he make sure Molly was protected, leading Jake to have his father Malachy and Des Courtney serve as protection for Molly in the event someone came after her in pursuit of the other key to the diamonds that she had.
Molly got off on bad terms with Malachy and Des when she confronted them in the surveillance van and maced Des under the belief that they were after Seth, but eventually worked with Malachy and Des, giving them information on her situation while claiming she hadn't wanted to be a part of Seth's plans. But as revealed over the course of the episode, it was Molly who had been behind the diamond robbery, with Seth taking the fall out of love for Molly. Molly had committed the robbery for The Chevaliers, a gang of bikers Molly worked for since before she met Seth. After learning about Molly's ties with The Chevaliers, Malachy told Molly that Jake had found Seth's key, leading Molly to visit the prison and get another key to the diamonds from Taylor Gossard, with Des tailing her and witnessing the exchange.
Following her villainous reveal, Malachy and Des confronted Molly outside her house after she retrieved the diamonds, with Molly unsuccessfully trying to claim that she had stolen the diamonds for Seth. After Malachy revealed how he'd learned she was working for The Chevaliers and had stolen the diamonds for them, the evil Molly blasted Seth Rankin as an idiot for taking a key to the diamonds to prison with him before being arrested.
