And, more importantly, he's like a son. So this means all out war.The Ribisi family devises a plan that allows Marco to both achieve his goal and fulfill his vendetta. But before the plan is executed, tragedy strikes again. Lies, betrayal, and murder become the order of the day. The other crime bosses won't allow Marco to simply walk away.
