The plan is to rob the dreadfully corrupt Mayor of Boston, Miccelli (Ron Perlman), on election evening.

The heist is deliberate by Besegai (Michael Stuhlbarg) together with his proper hand man, Dechico (Alfred Molina,) in Besegai’s bakery amid all of the sugary confections. Cobby (Casey Affleck), who has achieved arduous time (for a job he didn’t do) is a part of the crew as is Scalvo (Jack Harlow).
