With Elliot Ness (Robert Stack) raiding the Syndicate's distilleries left and right, Frank Nitti (Bruce Gordon) is forced to devise a new method of distribution. Enter ex-convict Matt Bass (Telly Savalas), who'd been Nitti's boss back in the "bad old days." Bass and his partner Jason Fiddler (Milton Selzer) have devised a foolproof scheme to get the illegal booze delivered, using a vast network of underground pipes. Nitti isn't interested, so Bass proposes his scheme to a rival bootleger, Seth Otis (Michael Constantine)--and we all know what happens when anyone tries to get the better of Frank Nitti. This third-season episode was originally slated to air during Season Two.
