Summary Baretta is entertaining a girlfriend in his apartment when there is a knock on his door. He opens the door to find an old girlfriend and her infant son -- and she claims he is the father. Baretta reluctantly takes on the role. While the two of them are walking near the ocean, a hired gun with a high-powered rifle fires at them. The rifleman then spins around and puts a bullet through the windshield of another car -- but he misses the driver and the car crushes him to death, then backs out and peels rubber away from the scene. A check on the dead man reveals he was a hit man for a mobster. Baretta hunts for the huge man who drove the second car. It turns out he's a capo for the Mob himself, sent to watch over the woman and to thwart the assassination attempt.
