Bronx: Calogero, un giovane ragazzo di origini italiane figlio di un autista d'autobus, passa le giornate nel suo quartiere imitando il boss Sonny che gestisce le sue attività in un locale vicino.Un giorno assiste casualmente a un omicidio: per lui testimonierà il falso, come suggerito dal padre, che con questo non vuole avere rogne.Diventerà così il prediletto di Sonny, il quale lo introdurrà nel suo giro. Nonostante i divieti dei genitori, Calogero inizia a frequentare il ritrovo degli uomini di Sonny, consolidando l'amicizia con il criminale, che lo prende sotto la sua custodia come un figlio.Anni dopo, Calogero è ormai cresciuto, Sonny è ormai diventato per lui una sorta di secondo padre, molto influente in ogni aspetto della sua vita. Il boss lo vuole indirizzare anche sulle amicizie da seguire, in quanto il ragazzo frequenta giovani violenti e razzisti.
