Set in 1931, a young police officer is about to lose his job due to cuts in the department.

It must be New York City because as a "last job", his superior asks the officer to transport a mobster cross-country from Sing Sing to Alcatraz.

As they travel by train, handcuffed together, the officer and the prisoner talk.

The mobster tells the officer that he looks exactly like his right hand man (see the title), who just happens to be married to his daughter, although she does not know she is his daughter.

Make sense so far?

As they travel along, the prisoner asks the officer to do him a favor after he drops him off at Alcatraz.

All of this you learn at the outset, and this is the beginning of the adventure.

Does the rest of the action occur in San Francisco? This is just too goofy.
