With Lucky's uncanny ability to decipher people, he's a natural salesman and quickly establishes Murray's meats as a staple around Las Vegas. The only problem is that the company's fiercest competitors, the Russo Brothers, aren't afraid to use intimidation to get sales. After a romantic dinner with Theresa is foiled by Russo's men, Lucky declares a "meat war" and vows that Murray's Meats will ultimately prevail.
