Plot: Feigning mental deficiency to get out of the impenetrable Sing Sing prison, the unrepentant mob boss, Paul Vitti, is now released into the custody of his favourite psychiatrist, Dr Ben Sobel. Still having unresolved issues to deal with, the good doctor reluctantly accepts to pick up where they left off after his idiosyncratic relationship with Paul in Analyze This (1999), forced to make his conflicted patient a proper model citizen. Once more, there is yet another pressing deadline, so that the dangerous don is ready before his parole hearing. Indeed, this is one of the most difficult cases in Dr Sobel's entire career. Can he analyse that?
Alternative Plot: Mob boss Paul Vitti (Robert De Niro) is nearing the end of his term in Sing Sing, and the FBI agents monitoring him are baffled. Day after day they watch as New York's most notorious gangland figure walks around his cell in a semi-catatonic stupor. Is Vitti having a nervous breakdown because of recent threats on his life or is his odd behavior merely a foxy ploy to get him sprung from jail early?
