Quick recap

New York, the 1970s. Frankie Scott steals the press that mints the High Table's gold coins from the Continental hotel. The manager, Cormac O'Connor, who raised Frankie and his brother Winston as criminals, snatches Winston from London to find the fugitive. Winston finds Frankie and his wife, Yen, but Frankie is killed by the twins Hansel and Gretel. Out for revenge, Winston puts together a crew with Yen, siblings Miles and Lou and other allies to take the hotel. Charon, Cormac's right hand, switches sides after his boss murders the cellist Thomas. Detective KD, the survivor of a family the Scotts killed years earlier, joins the fight. In the final assault, KD kills Cormac and Winston takes over the Continental. He then kills the Adjudicator right outside the hotel.
