An anonymous tip into a years-long fraud surrounding the McDonald's Monopoly game kicks off a complex investigation involving ambitious and unorthodox FBI agent Doug Mathews.
The FBI investigates two prominent figures in the scam, Jerome "Jerry" Jacobson and Gennaro "Jerry" Colombo, hoping to identify one of them as the mysterious "Uncle Jerry".
Gloria Brown's connection to the scheme is revealed, as the Colombos diversify the ticket operation under building pressure.
The aftermath of a car accident changes the fraudulent operation for good while the FBI uncovers even more players in the scheme.
As the FBI gets ready to make its move on "The First Eight", a last-minute error threatens to upend their carefully-laid plans.
The government finally brings its case to court and key questions about Jerome "Jerry" Jacobson's operation and the identity of the FBI informant are answered.
