soon afterwards, andy orders eddie to investigate alfie's two cousins jake (joel beckett) and danny (jake maskall) upon becoming enemies with them. in doing so, eddie finds out that jake and danny are henchmen working for their mob boss johnny allen (billy murray). he subsequently informs andy, who thereupon alerts johnny to the square so he can take care of jake and danny. it is then johnny begins to usurp andy from his gangland reign, up to the point where andy rants against johnny in front of eddie and their fellow neighbours in the queen victoria public house. andy's outburst towards sam prompts johnny and his friend den watts (leslie grantham), the pub's landlord, to ban andy from the pub and throw him out along with eddie. thereafter andy tells eddie that he plans to con johnny out of his £750,000 in a criminal transaction between them. while eddie attempts to warn andy about crossing johnny with his plan, andy insists that it is doing ahead regardless. this causes eddie to observe andy's go-ahead with his plot by having danny help out, after jake was originally authorized to help until johnny cut him out of getting involved at the last minute.
