Bone in the Throat

At this point in Bone in the Throat, every character's life is more complicated than ever. 
Tommy is being considered an actual suspect in Freddy's murder and the FBI have sent their agent, Al, out to start questioning all his friends and other mob members.
Tommy has been so stressed out by this, along with the fact that he knows he is being watched, that he gets really drunk one night and cheats on Cheryl (his new girlfriend) while she's gone for a week.  He ends up telling her and, rightly, gets punched in the eye and has a lot of apologizing and explaining to do.
Along with Cheryl, Tommy has also confided in the Chef. 
We find out that the Chef has finally started his treatment program and has been making a lot of progress. When leaving the building one day, though, he finds Al sitting on a bench waiting for him. Al puts pressure on him to convince Tommy to come in and tell his side of the story of what happened to Freddy. 
The Chef ends up talking to Tommy, which is why he confides in him. Coincidentally, though, right before they had this conversation of going and talking to the FBI, Tommy had just gotten picked up by two of the mob members. Danny (mob member) and Skinny took Tommy out by the river. The whole conversation was basically Danny making sure that Tommy did not have any grudges against the mob or his uncle, and that he did not plan on talking to the authorities. He even gave Tommy the name of a lawyer to call in case the authorities forced Tommy to come in. 
Now Tommy is stuck with a difficult decision: either tell the FBI what happened and get his uncle (his "mom's brother") in trouble, or stay silent and risk getting himself and the Chef sent to jail. Keeping silent is a family tradition, but will Tommy break tradition?
