Part 5/10:
The narrative unfolds primarily through the lenses of Sean Atwood and Sammy Gravano, showcasing their unique perspectives on crime and family. Atwood, originally from the UK, was drawn into the party scene that ecstasy popularized, leading him to dabble in drug dealing. On the contrasting side, Gravano, who was entrenched in the mob life, attempts to guide his son, Gerard, away from such a dangerous lifestyle.
Frances outlines the different paths both families took, detailing Gerard's struggle with the pressures of his father’s legacy and the eventual turbulence that arises when he chooses to enter the drug trade. The friction between father and son becomes evident, as Gravano tries to persuade Gerard to avoid drugs, which he believes to be the safer option.
