Plot Overview

Sara calls Mike and tells him where she is. He orders her to get out of there. She joins the man for another drink as a stalling tactic. JH Phillips thanks Fitsi Fitzsimmons for a job well done--- installing Dalton as D.A.. Phillips offers Fitsi to expand his "operations" to the whole west side. Now that they have the D.A. under control, Phillips promises protection to Fitsi's operatives and certain acquittals in case Dalton has to prosecute. Fitsi gladly accepts. Phillips tells him " You will have the franchise for as long as you deserve it. If I ever suspect that you can't be trusted, you will be--- 'removed' ". Sara continues her charade of picking up the man in the bar. Mike and Willy finally show up. Mike goes into the bar to keep an eye on Sara. He tells Willy to tail the man and find out where he goes, lives and who he is. When Mike enters, Sara pretends he is her boyfriend. The man is upset that his easy pickup didn't pan out. He leaves. Sara tells Mike to follow him but Willy has already done so. Fitzsimmons gets a visitor at his office: the man that Sara had followed, Roy Benson. Fitsi tells him that there is a potential big deal and that he must "keep clean". They discuss plans for an illegal gambling parlor. Willy tells Mike and Sara that was the man they were looking for. He works for a ward-boss named Fitzsimmons. Mike decides they will have to check out those 2 and have an operative tail Benson.
