Albert (Michael Imperioli) hadn't counted on hearing from his boyhood friend Louie (John Ventimiglia). For one thing, they hadn't spoken in years. For another, Louie was still in prison for attempted robbery -- or he was until he broke out. When Louie asks Albert to meet him at the Port Authority bus terminal in New York City, Albert agrees and calls the police. But after a quick change of heart, he races to rescue his old friend, who shows he still has a knack for getting Albert in trouble.
