The Untouchables (1959)

Episode Overview

On the night of August 29, 1934, in Chicago's Haymarket district, special agent Daniel Gosden, a police officer working with the Untouchables, sneaks in through a skylight and discovers an opium lab located on the top floor of a dilapidated tenement. Just then, drug kingpin Victor Rait arrives with four henchmen—Gus, Sully, Max, and Trapp—loading crates into the building. Rait soon notices Gosden and pursues him; as Gosden attempts to call for help from Ness, Rait shoots him with a shotgun. To scare off the curious tenants drawn by the commotion, Rait fires six shots into the air. Soon after, a call brings Eliot Ness, his team, and local police rushing to the scene.
