Ep 3. Punch

The Great Heist season 1 episode 3 titled "Punch" centers around the Cali cartel's pursuit of the thieves responsible for robbing the Banco de la Republica. A few members of the team were caught on camera, making the police work harder to find them. Meanwhile, Ricardo, one of the members of the gang, comes across a potential opportunity to sell one of the missing bills. However, his plan did not turn out as he expected.

The episode begins with the police investigating the robbery and studying the clues they have gathered from the bank. They have footage of some of the band members, but they barely reveal any faces, making it harder for them to catch them. In order to get some answers about the bank robbery, the police decide to take a closer look at the stolen money. They discover that the robbery was much more complex than they initially thought.

In the meantime, Ricardo tries to sell one of the missing money bills to a shady buyer, creating tension between him and the rest of the gang.

He's forced to clear his name and prove that he has not betrayed the team.

Apart from this, viewers also get to see more of the rivalry between the different cartels in Colombia, with some of them trying to take advantage of the situation. The Cali cartel, in particular, is doing everything they can to catch the robbers responsible for the stealing from the bank. They have hired a private investigator to find the members of the gang and the stolen money. The tension between the different cartels adds an extra layer of suspense to every scene.

As the episode progresses, the police make a breakthrough discovery using the footage from the bank, allowing them to identify one of the robbers. The team's faces were covered, but they fail to hide all their tattoos, leading to the authorities identifying one. One of the gang members, Tony, is apprehended and taken by the police. This kick starts a cat and mouse game between the authorities and the gang.

Overall, The Great Heist season 1 episode 3 delivers an immersive story that continues to build upon the previous episodes. With alliances tested and tensions rising, viewers can expect more twists and turns in the upcoming episodes as the Cali cartel continues to pursue the bank robbers.
