This episode was based on the book The Untouchables by Eliot Ness and Oscar Fraley and served as the pilot for the classic 1959-63 ABC crime drama of the same name.
Paul PIcerni and Nicholas Georgiade, seen here as mobsters, would switch sides and join the good guys once The Untouchables got picked up as a weekly series. Georgiade was cast as Agent Enrico Rossi in the premiere episode while Picerni would join up in the show's second season as Agent Lee Hobson.
