Nick DeMaio, who has had small acting roles over the years, seeks to be more than just the Italian mob stereotype.

What he doesn't know is that the theater owner, who auditions for and gets the role of Brutus, is the reclusive mobster the FBI has been investigating.

Meanwhile, Nick's daughter Gina wants the lead role in Guys and Dolls at her school, but she gets it only because the drama teacher believes her father is a real mobster.
