Alden has a meeting with Mursky, Jr. Jackson, 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 then tells them about Louis Roman. Mursky thinks they should pay off Louis, but Albano just wants Louis killed. Alden calls Albano and tells Albano that Louis rejected the offer and Albano agrees to have Louis killed, as does Mursky, Engtsrom, and Jr. Jackson.
Alden has a meeting in a limousine with Mursky, Jr. Jackson, Judge Engstrom, and Albano. He tells them that all of the Tenants have moved out and the deal is about to go through. Engstrom tells them that he plans on running for Congress, Jr. Jackson says he is going to buy a Rolls-Royce, Alden is going to invest his money, Albano says he is going to travel, while Mursky says he is going to buy a hotel in Miami. They park and Mike sees Speedy watching them and Alden sends two of Alden's Thugs to beat him up. At night, Charley Roman and Speedy sneak onto Engstrom's property. They knock out Engstrom's Thugs at the property entrance and Speedy distracts some more Thugs while Charley gets onto the roof of Engstrom's house. Charley puts a rod with string into Engstrom's bedroom window and puts poison on the string, which then drops into Engstrom's mouth, poisoning him to death.
