"Carnation " Charlie has been condemned to the electric chair for the murder of Calutchi. All his life he has worn a carnation and he always had good luck. But the day he came to trial for the murder of Calutchi, commissioner Weston wouldn't allow him to wear it saying it was against the court etiquette, and on that day the jury convicted him of first degree murder. Now the warden had come to take him to the chair and allowed him his last request for a carnation. Charlie swore that he was coming back to kill the florist for not getting a carnation to him and his best friend Moley for ratting on him and taking over his gang and lastly, Commissioner Weston.
