Eli Winter now knows his estranged son, Joseph, was responsible for busting up Nikolai Dubrovsky's drug lab, killing his men and taking merchandise and money in the process. He has a decision to make - protect his son from the wrath of the Rasplata Rytsari, who are sure to find out what he did sooner rather than later - or feed him to the wolves. Meanwhile, in an effort to eliminate a suspect, Dubrovsky approaches his main rival in Kapotnya's criminal underworld, Vasily Andropov, the leader of the violent Chistyye Krovi gang. Then there's the wild card that is Dubrovksy's son, Alexei, a volatile upstart who hates Eli with a passion and has been looking for an excuse to cut him out of his father's operation for years.
