- Luca plans to take over the gambling business and sends one of his men, Holman, to St. Louis. Torello plans to take Holman down, but the local sheriff, who wants publicity gets in MCU's way.
- Manny Weisbord is so impressed with Ray Luca's national sports book scam that he orders his Las Vegas representative, Johnny Fosse, to open negotiations with the prickly Noah Ganz, owner of Sin City's most prestigious sports booking operation. Fosse's contempt for Luca, plus Ganz's refusal to consider any offer, persuades Luca to ignore Manny's order to negotiate & take stronger action. His plan to blackmail Ganz by stealing a secret, coded odds book goes terribly wrong when the MCU follows Frank Holman to St. Louis for the burglary. Torrello's big break is marred not only by the interference of a pompous, politically ambitious sheriff but also by Julie's anger at his sudden overnight absence. The enraged Ganz signals his intentions to Weisbord when Manny's negotiator, Max Goldman, meets "the boys from Cleveland."
