Early in the episode, Ness is in a shootout and he appears to have shot some small-time hood. As a result, the hood's son, Nicky, comes gunning for Ness and is caught. But Ness is in a charitable mood and wants to help the kid so he asks the judge for leniency. However, in a twist, later in the show you learn that Gus, the man who hired the dead man, had the guy killed...and Ness shot an already dead man!! How can Ness use this information to bring down the mob?
This episode benefits from having good guest stars--Luther Adler, Michael Ansara and Joe De Santis. All were excellent actors and excellent heavies. The story also is unusual enough that it made this an excellent viewing experience.
By the way, in a funny mistake, Ness and one of his guys are trying to get into a room in which some thug is waiting. The thug fires ONE shot at the door...and if you look closely, there are TWO holes!
