Synopsis
Jason learns the truth of his past, and why he and the man he thought was his father was on the run from the mobster, Tuborg. Jason also learns of his sister, Geraldine, and has to find her (and the evidence she has). Along the way, trying to escape Tuborg's thugs, he meets GG (who happens to be his sister, under a wig, but Jason doesn't find out about that).
