Circumstances in *The Belt and Welt*, Alfred feels he needs to talk to Gully Troy. Going to Troy's house, he met Mrs. Troy for the first time. Being told he is at the garage which happens to be the base their criminal group. Banjo was there with Monty and Rita. Rita spoke, Banjo reached for a hammer. Looking ready to shoot till Troy shows, and see who it is. Thinking Alfie is his boy. They talk. Troy proves it was not his crew whom kidnapped Mrs. Pennyworth but that Alfie could join them but that would mean working for Troy.

*The Hunted Fox*, a funeral is held for Bazza, Banjo joins the Captain and Mrs Troy there with Monty and Rita too. They attended in full military arm as well.

The job was that night. A carriage being towed from behind by a military jeep was driving down the street of London. Till having to stop when it came to the other vehicle blocking the road. Rita Alfred and Dave Boy were the distraction, Banjo was in hiding. The group knocked out all the guards traveling with the Lord Mayor, then dynamiting the carriage door off. Dave Boy pulled the mayor out. Rita went in, she found the box empty. The gold doesn't appear to be onboard, Troy walks over to the Mayor and asks where the money is. Alfred brutally beats the mayor until he tells them where it is hidden.

Back at the nightclub The Delaney, Alfred, Dave Boy and Troy's crew celebrate their successful heist.

Troy's next heist. They will meet at 1100 hour, at Troy house. Not a neutral place. The 3 who made up Troy's crew **Banjo**, Monty, and Rita were sitting on the couch waiting, Melanie Troy was present too. Serving tea and having a spat with her husband.
Dave Boy was not sure of the plan. Asking how they all knew how long the fight would go for. All, including Alfred told Daveboy, all matches are fixed.

Banjo and Rita stood out in the hall. Alfred and Dave boy were with Troy. The 3 of them went in to drill the safe and take all the money. The plan didn't work, the wrestling match didn't play out as normal. The 2 try to block the door. That didn't work, they shoot at the crowd. Alfred didn't want to shoot the lady wrestler, Banjo who had taken off his mask, shot her for him.

All 6 of the crew were sitting with the money, Alfie was not Troy's boy any longer, and told them off. Angry at the murder and the stupidity of one of the crew Banjo, he was shooting in a panic and even Rita agrees.

That night Troy took Banjo out into the woods. Having his gun in hand, the 2 of them talk about old times as soldiers. Troy told him that he was a dam good soldier, he right after shot Banjo in the back of the head.
