Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Mob boss Nate Kestor (Steve Cochran) adds to the profits accrued by his popular burlesque house with sales of "imported" French brandy--which he manufactures himself in Chicago. Nate pulls off this deception with the help of the Marquise De Bouverais (Joanna Barnes), the wife of a famous and highly respected French cognac manufacturer (Steven Geray). If the Marquise refuses to play along, Nate will reveal to the world that she is really a former hootchy-kootchy dancer named Marcie McKuen--and if that isn't persuasive enough, Nate promises to kill both Marcie and De Bouverais if they try to escape his clutches. How will Elliot Ness (Robert Stack) manage to topple Kestor without putting Marcie's life in danger? This is the final episode of The Untouchables' second season.
