Nicky leaves no stone unturned as he wants the killer to get justice by any means possible. When, Nicky goes to a Detective with a picture of the assassin, the Underworld gets restless. Johnny Eels, the mob boss of East Harlem, who is like a father to Nicky tells him, " the guy who killed your father died of a massive heart attack." Nicky is elated. Eight years later, Nicky's best friend, Santo tells him he has a gut feeling Johnny Eels lied, that the assassin is very much alive.
