The Untouchables

Power Play

E2    Oct 19, 1961    60m    TV-PG
By the Summer of 1933, a new wave of crime has engulfed Chicago.  Due to a public outcry for action, Willard Thornton is appointed as a new commissioner to clean up the town.  At a press conference, Thornton arrogantly says his office does not publicly constitute criticism of any law enforcement agency-- while his tone of voice implies he privately does criticize them.  Eliot Ness is standing right next to him, looking more dour than usual.

Ness and his men go on a raid, they find a shipment of heroin in a hideout.
