Al had his father killed when Rourke was a boy.
Rourke brings Al down
It's Christmastime in Chitown
Rourke's family all tucked away waitin' for Santa
Instead of Santie they get Capone's armed goons breaking down the door to mow Rourke and his wife and two daughters down
They survive but Rourke feels it's better if they're driven' out to a secluded cabin for safety's sake.
He goes back to the city and begins attempts at making a reservation at Alcatraz for Al Capone to get his ass out of Chitown where his goons will no longer have his leadership.
Enter Elliott Ness,
he makes Rourke one of his famed Untouchables.
