Going to college and working in a seedy speakeasy bring Indy into contact with jazz great Sidney Bechet, who teaches him how to play the blues. Unfortunately, he also crosses paths with up-and-coming thug Al Capone and it's only with the assistance of his dorm roommate, future Untouchable Eliot Ness, that Indy is able to solve a vicious murder and prevent himself from ending up in a pair of cement overshoes.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was edited from two Young Indiana Jones Chronicles episodes ('Chicago, April 1920' and 'Chicago, May 1920') with new Harrison Ford bookends shot specifically for the TV movie release.
Sidney Bechet's actual recordings were used, and Jeffrey Wright learned clarinet specifically for the role—making this one of the most musically authentic portrayals in the entire franchise.
