Harry Plotnick, a New York City numbers runner, is back on the streets after a nine month prison stint, looking to reclaim his turf. Caught in a whirlwind of Jewish family life and all kinds of New York strivers, Harry encounters mobsters, lawyers, caterers, an overbearing sister, another daughter he has never met, cops, rabbis, and radio hosts.
