Mob boss John Friendly wants to break up the relationship before Terry turn canary, and orders Terry's brother to make Terry shut up or to have him killed. In the famous taxi scene, Terry's brother first tries to talk him into silence, even pulling a gun on him. Terry counters, "You should have taken better care of me, I could have been a [[contender]]."

Terry finally testifies to the [[crime commission]] and daringly shows up for work the next day. When he's refused work, he walks to the union headquarters, a shack on a small barge attached to the dock. He verbally confronts the mob boss, as the entire crew of longshoremen watch and listen. He challenges the mob boss to a fight, but when he starts getting the best of the fight the boss's men intervene and beat him almost unconscious.

In the climatic final scene, Terry staggers up the gangplank and along the dock to the warehouse entrance, because the men all refuse to begin work unless he also is hired. Together, they signal their refusal to tolerate the corruption any more.
