È anche un cuoco provetto, dunque è l'ideale per infiltrarsi nella brigata del ristorante italiano che appartiene alla famiglia Villa, sospettata di avere legami con la malavita di New York. Dwight, però, non ha fatto i conti con Julia Villa, la figlia del proprietario: ragazza tosta e determinata a guidare gli "affari" di famiglia, lo detesta sin dal loro primo, tempestoso incontro ed è intenzionata a fargli capire chi comanda.
