Bill Sikes (Oliver Reed), Fagin's partner, is worried Oliver will talk, so he and girlfriend Nancy (Shani Wallis) kidnap the boy. Knowing Sikes will kill Oliver, Nancy returns him to Brownlow, but is murdered by Sikes, who himself is killed while trying to escape. Oliver's revealed to be Brownlow's great nephew and lives happily ever after.
