No longer a family man.

Frankie has been a chump. Some time ago, he agree to take the rap and go to prison to make his mafia family happy. The agreement was that he'd do this and the mob would take care of his family. But once he went to prison, his family was left to languish. Things got so bad, his wife killer herself...and Frankie snapped and escaped from prison. Now the FBI want him but the mob also wants him...dead! But where could he be? Well, it's possible that he's looking for his estranged daughter.

This is a very good episode and illustrates that mobsters AREN'T especially nice folks! Go figure! Well worth seeing.

Trivia
Similar to the film noir Kiss of Death where a convict gets out (albeit on parole, for turning over information) because his wife committed suicide and his children are vulnerable.
