Character Summary[]

"Prisoner number 02U672, Francis Urbano AKA Frank the Fixer. Convicted January 7, 2002 - Murder in the first degree. Sentence: Life, up for parole in 25 years."
The Narrator[src]

A famed hitman, Francis Urbano, was given a life sentence for shooting a man off a ladder trying to escape him. Urbano is primarily an enforcer for the Sicillians and he follows orders from their leader Chucky Pancamo without question. He proves to be a vicious inmate and not only evens the war with the Aryan Brotherhood in one stroke but also regains control of the drug trade for the Sicillians.

Plot Summary[]

Season 5[]

Urbano arrives in Oz in the middle of a gang war between the Aryans and the Sicilians. Tobias Beecher asks Chucky Pancamo to protect Adam Guenzel, an associate of his from the Aryans, and Pancamo has the Sicillians do so. In the gym, Aryan inmate James Robson tries to assault Guenzel, but Urbano and the Wiseguys intervene and defend Guenzel. The guards break up the fight and Urbano is tossed in the hole. When released, Urbano runs the Sicilians and sees that they are weak in the drug trade due to the injuries to Chucky Pancamo and Peter Schibetta. They are also at a low point because their allies, the Latinos have gone to work with the Homeboys, their African-American rivals in the drug business. At dinner later on, Urbano states that the best way to get back in full swing is by whacking Burr Redding, the Homeboy's leader. Fellow Sicillian Salvatore DeSanto then states that Redding does not know how to die. Urbano says that anyone can die. Following that statement, DeSanto goes braindead due to an overdose of LSD in his food brought on by Redding. This happened because some of the black inmates have framed DeSanto for drugging one of their own members Augustus Hill whom Redding cares for deeply. When it is learned that DeSanto did not drug Hill, Poet who is in fact responsible for the drug overdose frames Guerra, looking for someone else to blame for Hill's hospitalization. As the Homeboy/Latino alliance comes to a close, Enrique Morales then approaches Urbano with the intent to be drug partners again. Urbano tells Morales that the Sicilians will forgive them only under a 60-40 deal where the Sicilians get 60% of the drug profits. Morales agrees only under the condition that Burr Redding dies. Urbano attempts to stab Redding but Augustus Hill gets in his way and gets stabbed instead and dies. This leaves the Homeboys in complete shock and disarray, but puts the Sicilians back into full swing in the drug business.

Season 6[]

Urbano helps Pancamo kill the supposedly traitorous Schibetta and pothead Bukowski. He tells disgraced and ex-Aryan Brotherhood member James Robson about the lack of downsides to whacking Wolfgang Cutler with Pancamo as well. Redding, out of the drug dealing business, also asks Pancamo and Urbano to stop the Homeboys from slinging, a task they gladly accept.
