A genius in the white collar crime's department, Joe has convinced Tucker that he should make disappear all the little numbers racket operators in order to be the only one to control this business.

Joe wants to find a way to thank Leo who, years before, offered him the opportunity to study Law but Leo doesn't want to be Tucker's partner.
Little by little, Joe Morse is gaining a new status in the mob organization. He is soon considered as a partner in crime rather than a lawyer. Will he be able to understand the risks and the duties this new status implies ?
