Plot: Chili Bandler loves big brother Jack and seeks his affection with a childlike zeal. Jack Valento doesn't share his half brother's zest for their relationship. Jack makes his living from washing other people's money through his illegitimate, non profit organization, and also by keeping other people's dirty laundry dirty, namely the District Attorney's. So the DA sends an errand boy to retrieve the nasty bits of his past that are keeping Jack in business. But Jack didn't become king of the sewer by sitting like a duck in a pond, and he's ready for the DA's lackey. Instead of sending the errand boy to jail, Jack gives him a job. But this guy stirs Chili's jealousy, and causes his already shaky foundation to crack. So when Jack loses his cool and his mistress ends up dead, Chili sees a golden opportunity to climb back to the top of his brother's good graces by getting him out of this jam. And get him out he does - for now. Chili takes complete control of the situation which comforts his shaken brother. Finally his brother needs him. Finally his brother appreciates him. Finally his brother calls him Chili and not Bandler. But more bodies need to drop for this plan to work, and they need a fall guy. As long as everything goes according to plan they should be okay. Yeah, right.
