Al Capone Shines My Shoes:

  • Darby Trixle's determined search for a missing bar spreader that is part of an inmate plot takes a sudden humorous turn with the reveal that he hasn't noticed how his own young daughter found it and is using it to decorate her playhouse.
  • When Elliot Ness visits the prison, his old nemesis Al Capone is assigned to prepare his dinner and gets away with spitting in it when no one put Moose and Piper are looking.
