January 1932. Smalltime bootlegger Al Remp is serving 3-5 years in prison; he’s done 3 years and is up for parole next week, but it seems he won’t get it. The guards put him in solitary, and Remp has a visitor: Eliot Ness. Remp tells him, « »I got nothing to say to you. » » But Ness tells him that if he agrees to help him nail bigtime bootlegger « »Fat » » Augie Strom, his former boss, he’ll get that parole; or else 2 more years is a long time.
