The Nitti organization is hurting thanks to all the raids by Ness and the Untouchables. They've been particularly hurt lately...thanks, in part, to a mole within the mob who's helping the Untouchables. Nitti and his council are at wits end and decide to bring in a legendary troubleshooter...Walter Trager (James Gregory). Trager has been out of circulation lately...but now he's back and with attitude. He also seems to have ESP as he quickly ferrets out two possible leaks and has them plugged....literally! But there's a problem...he orders a hit on his own brother-in-law and his sister (Cloris Leachman) could turn out to be a problem. The other problem is that Trager might just be getting too big for his britches...and Nitti isn't the sort of guy to take this lightly. As for Ness, he's also having his troubles as Nitti now seems to be second-guessing him at every turn.
This episode is filled with betrayals and nastiness--the sorts of things that make for a good episode. Not among the very best....but still very good.
