THE DISINTEGRATION: Mob kingpin Louie 'K' shocks a meeting of syndicate leaders by announcing that he is retiring.

THE IMMIGRANT: After finding a stolen handgun in her son's room, a desperate mother begs Detective Ruditsky to intervene and turn her boy away from a gangster life.

THE KID DROPPER: When a child is slain by crossfire during a syndicate hit, the press and public pressure Ruditsky and the detectives to put and end to mob violence.
