  Episode Notes  
The episode marks the second and final appearance of Joe De Santis as hard of hearing mobster Louie Latito.
 
Frank Wilcox makes his first appearance of Season Two as Beecher Asbury. Wilcox only appeared in this episode and Ring of Terror during the 1960-61 season, his fewest in the series run.
 
Robert Bice makes his first appearance of the show as Lt. Hale Johnson. In this and a second subsequent appearance in Season Two the character would be a plainclothes lieutenant but once Season Three rolled around he would be transformed into a uniformed police captain.
 
Location: Chicago
 
  Episode Quotes  
Vinnie: This Nick muscled in on my district. He needs a lesson on how to read a map.
 
Moses: (to Vinnie) You got a suntan. I got Kurowski's action.
 
Nitti: (to Moses) When I'm talkin', Nick, I like to finish!
 
Ness: Capone's boys are back in town. My guess is they're making a few adjustments.
 
  Analysis  
A good episode highlighted by Harry Guardino as a particulary nasty villain who tries to kill Eliot Ness in order to get out of a death sentence issued down by Frank Nitti. Joe DeSantis, as a Nitti henchman, also turns in a good performance.
