Detailed Synopsis
Charley Roman and Speedy (Death Promise)|Speedy are jogging through New York City. Charley goes to his apartment and finds the gas has been shut off. He goes to take a shower and finds the water has also been shut off. Louis Roman walks into Charley's apartment and Charley tells him about the water and gas being shut off. The power then goes off and Louis finds three Thugs (Death Promise)|Thugs in the building. They attack Louis and Charley runs over and helps Louise fight them off. Charley grabs one of the Thugs and demands to know who sent them, but the Thug tells him, some random guy just paid them to pull out wires. Later, Charley and Speedy work out at the dojo. A car pulls up at the apartment building and two Thugs get out, one carrying a box of rats. They let the rats out into the building and one of the Tenants (Death Promise)|Tenants named Uncle John sees them. They shove Uncle John out of the building and start harassing him. Charley and Speedy sees them harassing Uncle John and beat them up and the Thug in the car drives off. Louis walks up and tells the Tenants that have gathered outside that the Thugs don't know who they are working for and the entire block is owned by the Iguana Realty Company. He then tries to convince them to stick together and not move. Alden has a meeting with Mursky, Jr. Jackson, Judge Engstrom, and Albano. He tells them that they need to get rid of the tenants immediately or the property deal will be forfeit. Alden tells them that the law is on the side of the Tenants and asks for ideas on getting rid of the Tenants. Engstrom complains that the laws today only protect the welfare people. Alden tells them about Louis. Mursky thinks they should pay off Louis, but Albano just wants Louis killed. After the meeting ends, Alden walks into his office and tells a seated man that his plan is working perfectly. Charley looks outside his window and sees three Thugs walking to the apartment with a jug of gasoline. One of the Thugs pours the gasoline on the building and some cardboard and Charley attacks the Thugs and beats them up. Speedy goes to the dojo and is told by Shibata that he has to wait until the advance class is over
