Episode synopsis
One of Harry Rawlins' robberies goes wrong, resulting in the deaths of three robbers. His widow Dolly is given some keys at Harry's funeral by Harry's cousin Eddie. The police begin a search for Harry's ledgers, in which he kept all his notes on past and future robberies, as do the Fisher brothers, who were rivals. Dolly finds the ledgers, along with a gun and money, in Harry's deposit box at the bank. The police tail Dolly, but she gives them the slip a few times to meet with Shirley and Linda, whose husbands also died in the explosion. They decide to carry out the robbery themselves. When Dolly returns home, she finds her house in a mess and someone in the living room.
