Garbageman Tullio the Tub hauls his brother Fat Manny Manditti, a numbers runner, to the emergency room after a near-fatal knifing. Tullio offers no details to police chief Mario Balzic, who worries the Western Pennsylvania mob will get revenge and who wonders if this is connected to recent troubles with his parish’s lottery.
