S3 E02: The Man Is Nuts

The complicated relationship between Kurt Calabrese and his Uncle Nick reveals how Nick became a surrogate father figure in Kurt's turbulent childhood. While Kurt's father Frank Sr. ruled through fear, Uncle Nick showed kindness—despite his increasingly dark role as an outfit hitman who would eventually participate in multiple murders for the Chicago mob. Uncle Nick was reluctantly pulled into the criminal underworld by his brother Frank Sr., who in turn answered to feared outfit captain Angelo "The Hook" LaPietra. Kurt's life changes dramatically when he falls in love with Angela, the granddaughter of his father's boss Angelo LaPietra. Despite family pressure to stay apart, Kurt and Angela secretly marry at City Hall—a decision that sends Frank Sr. into a violent rage. What should have been a joyful wedding day turns into a terrifying chase through the streets as Kurt flees his father's wrath, culminating in a chilling warning from Uncle Nick that this forbidden marriage could get them all killed. Their story provides a haunting glimpse into how the Chicago outfit's brutal code affected even the most personal aspects of its members' lives.
