Episode Synopsis:

After serving 18 months in prison to set his cover, Vinnie is torn between his desire to tell his ailing mother that he's a Fed and wanting to go after the Steelgrave mob family, who were responsible for killing his training officer. He fights his way into the organization and seems to be winning Sonny's trust, then Dave Steelgrave's (Sonny's brother) death changes everything. Vinnie sets up Tony to make him look like a snitch, then proves his loyalty to the family by killing the Fed who's been hounding Sonny. Jessica Steen plays Tracy Steelgrave (the daughter of Dave Steelgrave).
