In which episode did Ness find the mobster's daughter?

I forgot the name of this episode and I need someone to tell me its name.

A dying gangster will give Ness information, but only if he's reunited with his long lost daughter.

A lot of air time in this episode is given over to the sleuthing of a lady investigator working for the missing persons bureau. She finds the daughter, and the reunion occurs in a hospital, on the gangster's deathbed.

What's the name of the episode?

One Armed Bandits from season one.

Actually, it's Elegy from Season 4 which was a pilot for a possible spin-off series starring Barbara Stanwyck.

Apparently they used the same plot element twice. One Armed Bandits end with a dying Harry Guardino insisting on Ness taking him to see his daughter in exchange for his help taking down the Viale mob. Not surprising since they were 3 seasons apart and I doubt anybody then thought we'd be scrutinizing things the way we do today.
