The Untouchables: The Death Tree (1962)
Charles Bronson guest stars as Janos Kolescu, a renegade gypsy hired by the Syndicate to establish a new illegal-liquor market amongst his own people in Chicago. Kolescu has an intensely personal reason for casting his lot with the Mob: He intends to carry out an old vendetta against the head of Chicago's "gypsy senate", who back in the Old Country had stolen a religious icon and shifted the blame to Kolescu's father. In his efforts to bring Kolescu to justice, Elliot (Robert Stack) finds himself up against one of his most elusive--and most deadly--adversaries. This episode features the first of four Untouchables appearances by future Lou Grant star Edward Asner. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
