The local police investigate, but is blocked by the FBI. They know his family was FBI, so he tells them about the latest case. However, Lt. Lisa Ramone and Sergeant Bonner have a problem believing it. Flashback: Danny goes undercover as a small-time gun dealer to infiltrate a local mob crew, but just when he's making headway with one of the crew boys, his contact turns up belly-up in the ocean. Was he whacked by his own crew? Danny slowly establishes contact with the remaining mobsters and gets them interested in a phony bazooka heist, hoping to gain their trust and uncover the murderer. Meanwhile, the Arno family becomes completely "Italianized" as the Andreotti's, and even get access to an undercover home to entertain mob boss Charlie "Diggs" Digliero. The next door neighbors are a bit too friendly and are visiting when Danny arrives home with a bazooka. The bazooka plan arouses Charlie's suspicion, and when Chance accidentally blows their cover on the docks, the undercover cover house meets with an explosive end-right before Chance's eyes. Is Chance the only Arno left? Close to the end of the story, the Sgt. and Lt. get a bit suspicious about the family not being tipped off. CPS shows up and needs Chance ASAP. The police captain knows what is going on and covers for them. The family is on their way to Utah. Written by BAP13 See less
