Gang boss Joe Castle dies, leaving his ill-gotten gains to long-lost son Steven, who has no criminal connections but seems willing to learn. Regan warns Castle's warring minions not to cause trouble but one of them, Pat Tarley, threatens Steven, saying he wants everything from his father's 'businesses'. The thieves are falling out and Steven cannily plays them off against each other, making Regan's job that much easier.
