As Casey and Ann fight the crowds, he spots a pickpocket at work. When reporting the incident to. The floorwawalker, Casey seems to get the brush off, but is Fingers really involved with the kidnapping that made headlines? He knows what he saw, but for now its time to retreat to Ethylbert’s tavern.
Ethylbert has his own tale to pass on about a guy who was caught passing bogus bills to other bartenders, in other saloons. How does it connect with the experience Casey had? Casey presents his theory to the cops, regarding the bills, and a kidnapper. Has Fingers, the pickpocket just been a patsy to take the fall for the real kidnapper?
Now its time to figure out who the fat guy is that Casey identified in his original sighting. Known gangsters one to light, but it may just be a hunch that sets Casey on the right trail.
When Gus arrives, Casey has found his man, but he’s now on the business end of a pistol. This could be the end of Casey and Ann as they get wrapped up, and locked in a garage full of carbon monoxide.
A few gunshots, and car crash later, and our hero’s can return to Ethylbert’s to tell him all about their discovery.
