Bet and Fagin

I've always wondered if Bet and Fagin were both aware of Nancy's plan to hand Oliver over to Brownlow.

Before she breaks into oom pah pah, you can see that Bet looks equally as nervous as Nancy, and Fagin looks genuinely concerned when he sees Nancy leaving with Oliver.

I believed Bet knew of Nancy's plan. She does look genuinely nervous

I think Bet figures out Nancy's plan when she starts the song, and chooses to help her. I don't think Fagin knows until Oliver's gone.
