Older and wiser after five years inside, Carlito Brigante, Puerto Rican hustler and drug dealer, is looking to slow down. To pull in some money, he buys a nightclub in Harlem. Meanwhile, the lawyer who sprung Carlito from the Federal Pen is in over his head with the Mafia and wants to call in a favor. But as Carlito sagely observes, 'A favor can kill faster than a bullet.'
