[MISC CONVERSATIONS]

He's just trying to help you
here, Jakey.

That's all, your tie was all
screwed up.

Most of you are too young to
remember, but when I was

little my old man used to take
me on the collections.

I remember like it
was yesterday.

Yeah, now in those days most of
the people, they didn't

know what protection was.

So, we had to explain to them,
huh Tony?

The hard way.

Hey, Uncle Jakey, who is the
new guy with the really

snazzy suit?

He's the guy from
down the block.

He cleaned the Don's jacket.

Remember the blood stains from
the other night at Mario's.

The Crevellos made the mistake
of trying to talk to the Don

at a very inappropriate time.

When was that?

When he was eating?

What are they stupid?

They've got to be a
bunch of dingbats.

I thought lunch was this
little meal

in the middle of the day.

We've been here for 3 hours.

They keep bringing him
plates of food.

What are you crazy?

[Italian phrase] you don't talk
about the Don like that

you'll get me wacked.

Go do your hair.

I'd like to make a toast.

To the Don.

I'd like to just express my
gratitude for the hospitality.

Salute.

Salute.

Hey. That was nice, huh.

Salute

Oh, hey!

Oh, jeez you scared the crap
out of me .

I thought she was going
to shoot him.

I shoot her later on tonight.

You did a beautiful job
on the jacket.

I mean you can't even see where
the blood was, you know?

You know, boss, when I shot him
he was still standing.

So I figured I'd shoot him in
the leg and this way he would

fall away from you like a tree.

But I shot him in the wrong leg.

He shot the wrong leg.

That's one eyed Vinnie
we call him.

We'll put a patch on him.

Oh, hey nobody's perfect.

Ah!

Oh, no she did it again.

How can I help?

Oh my boss is all
over you again.

What are you kidding?

Mike?

Mike?

Oh.

Mike?

Mike?

Come on.

You've got to get to the store
early today, remember?

- Mr. Bozelli's suit?
- Oh, yeah the store.

Come on, we have
coffee in the kitchen.

Okay, now don't go back to bed.

Look it's such a lovely day.

- Come on.
- Okay. I'm coming.

It's late.

I know, okay.

If only, make him a suit.

It's only a dream.

[RADIO PLAYING OPERA]

Well, at least he has good taste
in music, even if the

butcher dresses better than that
fat slob.

Can you get the coffee?

You're going to be late.

Morning honey.

Hi honey.

Just a cup before I go.

Hey, hey, hey cutie.

How are you?

Thank you, mom.

You know, Lill, if I could make
just one suit for Fat

Piano then ...

"I'd be on easy street!"

no because listen I don't want
to just clean them.

I want to make them.

Put those peas back on her
plate.

All right eat those peas.

Eat the peas.

Eat the peas.

Here.

What's with the peas?

Hey, Sammy!

What are you doing down there?

I'm waiting for Pop.

I've got coffee up here for
you.

We've got to go to work, Ma.

You can't start your day
without it.

Get up here.

No. Really, I've got to go
anyway.

He's at it again.

Look, I found them in the pocket
of his jacket.

Dammit.

can I come?

No, you're little.

It's going to be okay.

Good morning.

Morning.

Oh, here honey.

Morning.

Here, take your coffee.

Take your coffee.

Hey, Mike?

Didn't you go to school with the
Don Piano?

Wouldn't that count for
anything?

That was 100 years ago.

He's not going to remember me.

You never know.

I think a nice shiny sharkskin
finish.

Look, come on, if you get in
with the Don maybe you could

put a good word in for me.

There's no glory in being with
the mob.

These guys are bums I'm telling
you.

There's no glory in

making a suit for that fat slob
Piano either.

You want to make the suit.

We need the money.

We all need the money, Pop.

That's what this is about.

Come on, Pop. We've got to go.

All right, and by the way dead
people need clothes too.

That's right.

You tell him, honey.

So?

What's that, Pop?

You at it again?

I thought you said you were
going to quit?

Where'd you get these stubs?

Your wife gave them to me.

Sammy, you don't know anything
about this

so mind your own business.

Someday you'll understand.

Drive.

*

Sammy!

Sammy, come here!

What, Pop?

What do you want?

I want you to learn the
business so you can take over
for

me like I did for my father.

Maybe I'll take over for Fat
Piano?

Then you can make me suits.

Don't get me started, all
right?

First you get out of the Army

on a medical because of your
feet.

Then you go to mortician school.

So, what?

I wanted to do something else.

Besides I thought you could

make suits for the front of
them.

We could be a team.

I only make suits for live
people.

It's not like they argue or
change their mind.

So, now you want to be a big
shot too?

You want to join the mob?

Oh.

You want to be in the mob too.

Don't tell me you don't.

No, I don't.

I want to make an honest living
making clothes for them.

That's it.

Now, let me show you something.

After you put the pins in you
start to stitch it.

What happened?

It's my arthritis.

It's killing me.

If I can't, if I can't stitch,
if I can't sew

I can't make a living.

I can't put bread on the table.

That's why I started gambling
again.

That's why.

I never noticed, Pop.

Your mother says she's going to
leave me if I don't stop.

Where would I be if that
happened?

Ah, listen we'll get some more
work

but I need your help, son.

I can't do it myself.

I just, I need your help.

Okay, sonny?

All right.

Let me try, Pop.

All right I can do it.

Yeah, you can.

Let's see what I can do.

Try it.

All right, you do something
else.

Use the machine okay.

Okay.

Thanks.

Love you, Pop.

Pop!

Yeah?

What do you think?

Not bad.

It looks good, looks good.

Good seam, huh?

Sit down and see if the
stitches hold, all right?

Oh!

Oh, what'd you do?

You forgot to take the pins out.

That's all right.

You'll learn, you'll learn.

I took out, uh ...

Yeah, they're in there.

Believe me.

All right.

Get back to work.

*

Come on Jakey I just want to

take your niece out once that's
all.

I already told you Vinnie,
look, you don't have the right

kind of pencil.

I got the right kind of pencil,
honest.

Here Jakey I'll show you.

Oh, don't bust my balls.

[PHONE RINGING]

You ain't even got any lead in
your pencil.

I got plenty of lead, look I
...

Hello?

Look, I just want to take
Theresa out one time.

You don't even know how to
write.

Ah, forget about it.

Sorry.

I got you Don.

Don't worry.

You got him Tone?

You got him Tone?

Yeah, I got him, I got him, I
got him.

Everybody's looking, the
neighborhood here.

I've got to call you back.

Sammy, come here.

Hurry up.

Here comes the Don and his boys.

Angelo, hey.

Where you been?

That represents 10 suits, not
to mention sport coats,

slacks, shirts.

How can I get to these guys?

What? You're my boy.

I can show these fatheads how
to protect the Don better,

that's for sure.

They don't even move with him.

What are you talking about?

Someone could bump the Don off
...

What has that got to do with
you?

I'm saying, if someone wanted
to bump the Don of they

could do it.

And that's your problem?

Yeah, it could be my problem.

Why?

For what reason?

I could get a job.

How about that?

What kind of job? With them?

Yeah, they could probably ...

Look at the money.

We're here to make suits, not,
not ...

You work here. Forget about it.

Huh, look at this.

Here comes your mother with our
lunch.

She's only been driving a
couple of months.

I know, not bad.

Look, she can parallel park.

Holy shit.

Oh my God, Holy Mary mother of
God.

Jesus Christ.

Holy shit!

Look at this!

What?

Oh, holy shit.

I don't think any amount of
praying is going to help this.

Ma!

Ma!

Ma, what are you doing?

What idiot would park on the
wrong side of the street?

You get inside.

Stay where you are.

Yeah, sure.

What are you doing?

Oh!

...the front over here.

That's what I'm talking about.

Holy shit.

What are you doing?

What are you crazy bringing that
thing in here?

You trying to get me killed?

No, I'm trying to save this
family.

Oh God here comes one dead
family...

Because he's got the bumper.

Oh, who is this?

Who are these people?

What the hell is going on?

Huh?

Come here, come here, come
here.

Oh.

Oh.

That's not good.

That's bad.

Yeah Hey, Gavones, get out of
the way.

Don Piano, we've got a problem
here.

Something was missing from your
automobile.

I'm curious to know what the
hell is going on.

Yeah ...

My pop always told me, "Angelo,
you got something to say

you say it."

You got something to say to me
tailor?

Something to ease my troubled
mind?

I can't help but feeling a
little tense.

PS127.

Don Piano, are you aware of our
specials

on custom made garments

of the finest gaberdine wool
cloth?

Don't forget hand stitching and
special...

Assorted colors.

I can get whatever you want,
whatever assorted colors,

fabrics and finishes.

Finishes.

I tell you,

you'd look wonderful in a nice
blue gaberdine.

Sharkskin.

Bongiorno, Don Piano.

I am so sorry to have brought
you here

under such unusual
circumstances.

It seems ...

It's okay.

She was parking and you know how
hard parking is.

I don't drive.

No, you don't.

I do.

She kind of just scraped your
limo.

Just a little bit.

All of a sudden baboom.

Baboom.

Baboom.

Baboom.

Baboom.

And now ...

Baboom.

Your ...

Bumper is in our shop.

Don Piano what happened is as I
was parking, the jar with

Mike's sausage and peppers and
my gravy started to spill

and as I went to grab for it I
lost control.

You know Mike likes a hot meal,
he really does.

I do.

I like a hot meal.

Did you say sausage and
peppers?

That's my favorite dish.

Really?

With olive oil and fresh
parsley and a pinch of basil.

Hey, boss.

Those peppers and sausage
they're the bestest.

I mean you ain't had those in a
couple of weeks.

That's exactly how I make them,
and they had these really

nice great big, red peppers at
Vecchios vegetable stand and

I make my own sausage in my
kitchen.

Well a, madone'.

Hey!

Senora, I would be honored

to taste some of your culinary
delights.

Get a nice piece of gaberdine
for ...

No, sharkskin.

Sharkskin again.

Now, make yourself comfortable
Don Piano.

Sit, sit.

I'm sure this will meet with
your approval.

Now sit up close to the table
Don Piano

so you don't spill your food.

Don't worry about that.

I'm fine.

Oh.

Oh.

Hey boys, this reminds me of
last week at Mario's.

my favorite jacket.

I almost lost my appetite...

Almost, huh?

Those Crivellos, they got no
respect.

When it come time to eat, you
eat.

Hey, thanks to Mike here.

You saved the day.

My jacket, beautiful.

Don Piano, I want to talk to
you about some new clothes, I

make for you...

Hey Mike, this is a very nice
cloth.

What do you call this?

What is this?

That's sharkskin.

Sharkskin?

What the hell is sharkskin
Tony?

I never heard of anything like
that before, Sharkskin.

Mike, tomorrow you come by my
place.

We have a little vino, a little
pasta and we talk about the

old days capisce?

Don't remind me.

PS127, right?

And Mike, make sure to bring
your tape measure, huh?

[LAUGHTER]

Hey Mike!

You do it again, huh?

So we're finally getting in
with the big boys, huh Pop?

Yeah, yeah.

Me making a suit for Don Piano
and you shining his shoes

isn't exactly getting in with
the big boys.

I want to keep my distance from
these guys and I want you

to do the same.

Pop, you've been dreaming about
making suits for these

guys for years.

Yeah, only because the money.

If it wasn't for the money I
wouldn't give these guys the

right time of day.

They're scum.

It's not like I have a choice.

You see how they jump to light
the Don's cigar like a bunch

of trained dogs?

Weak men do that.

What's wrong with lighting your
boss's cigar?

Nothing, as long as you do it
out of respect.

Not out of fear.

You see the difference?

Yeah.

I guess.

Because before you know it
you're kissing their ass for

every little thing and when
you've done that,

you've lost everything.

Like what?

Like your self respect.

Okay.

What else?

There isn't anything else.

If you've got your self respect
you've got everything,

honor, dignity, integrity.

That's what makes a man.

Don't ever forget that, son.

Ah, Pop, I love you.

Let's go make a suit.

Yeah, let's go make a suit.

he put them in the machine.

Where'd you get that?

My tailor.

oh hey, Mike.

Good to see you.

you honor us with your presence,
huh?

He doesn't need to.

Hey, boys, you say hello to
Miguel huh?

Hey, Miguel!

Oh, Mike, who's this?

This is my son, Sammy, he came
to help.

Oh Sammy, what have you got
there Sammy?

I bought my shoe box.

You want to shine the Don's
shoes, huh?

Yeah.

Come on, you shine the Don's
shoes.

Hey, Sammy.

You do a nice job, huh?

Don't make me show you how to do
it all right?

All right, okay.

You going to do me a service.

You're going to make me one of
those great suits you make.

See, next week I've got a big
public appearance.

I'm going to dedicate this new
building for the hospital.

Everybody going to be there, my
cusine, all the newspapers.

It's a big event.

I'm going to wear a bullet proof
vest and you are going to

make me a suit with the vest
underneath.

Ah.

Ah.

Don Piano, my pop is so good he
could make you a suit with

the vest already built into the
suit, right?

That's a good idea and maybe
Valentino Ferrari will take

notice of it, huh?

Oh, yeah you mean the concert
violinist?

That's it.

You know, when he's going to

give up on this violin dame
anyway?

When he ends up banging her,
that's when.

She won't even talk to him.

He just likes to chase the
babes, around.

Leave him alone.

Hey, Mike.

You do a nice job on this suit
you make all my suits.

You become my own personal
tailor.

Huh?

Everybody'll know about it.

How you doing, Mike?

Hey, babe, after this is over

you and I we go have our own
lunch.

I've got something special
planned.

You do?

Yeah.

Sure honey.

Yeah.

Hey, Sammy.

You know what?

When you're done doing the Don
you come over you do my

shoes and you do Tony's shoes.

You do mine.

I give good tip.

Don't do Jakey because he's the
cheapest bastard on the

face of the earth, okay?

Come and do my shoes you get a
good tip here.

Me and Tony take care of you.

Okay.

Hey, I mean maybe we could
trade.

You could show me how to shoot a
gun

and then I'll shine your shoes.

Oh, you want to shoot a gun,
huh?

You want a shoot a gun huh?

Sammy, you know what?

We're going to give you your own
gun too maybe

huh if you get good.

[RADIO]

Mother.

Honey.

I don't know what to do with
Russell.

Why?

He's sweet and I like him, but
...

But, do you really like him?

Do you like him a lot?

Is he special?

Well, I think so.

Give me the brush.

You have that look on your face
darling.

I know.

I like him but he wants to go so
fast.

I know.

Your father was just like that.

Was he?

Oh, yeah but so cute.

Well, but he would never even
think ...

Of trying anything?

No!

Not with Uncle Louie, Uncle
Weewee, Uncle Charlie, Uncle

Bill and Uncle Jim.

You should have seen the way
they used to stand there when

he'd come over.

They would have killed him if
they even thought...

My father a lover?

Shh.

No S-E-X talk.

Are you kidding?

If he even thinks or knows that
his favorite daughter has a

guy coming around he'll go
crazy.

Fathers and daughters.

Mom, I'm growing up so fast.

No, no, no.

Take it slowly.

I'm 22.

I know, but Russell will
respect you.

Why don't you go to sleep, okay?

We'll talk about this in the
morning.

Thank you mom.

You're welcome.

Good night sweetie.

Love you.

Love you too.

Good night, honey.

Can you believe these girls?

They want to grow up so fast.

Yeah,

You know you've been working
all these hours lately.

I miss you.

Don't worry about it because
the mayor is going to be at

the Don's lunch.

He sees my work and that's going
...

What, what?

There you go again, Mike the
dreamer.

He'll just see my work and I'll
get a job.

Mike you're such a dreamer, but
I love you anyway.

Me too, Lill.

[CELLO PLAYING]

Here, you go out with the boys
for collection, capisce?

Hey, Mike.

You remember me?

Hello Francesca.

Why, I didn't realize yesterday.

It's been a long time.

Still living at home?

Hey Mike.

Nice to see you this morning.

You bring your tape measure to
take the Don's measurements?

Yes.

We don't want bullet holes to
go in this little belly of

mine, huh?

Yes, I've come to fit you for
your fine new suit.

I was thinking of gaberdine,
navy blue.

No, no, no Mike.

With all due respect I want a
black sharkskin for my first

public appearance, unless you
would advise me otherwise?

What the hell is sharkskin?

Hey, Gavone...

No, of course that would be a
wonderful choice.

Whatever you want.

Hey, Angelo,

which one of these you want to
use

on that third avenue tap
tonight?

The big one sprays real nice but
this cut off, this makes a

big, bad pop.

Whichever one is the loudest.

Tony, my boy, can't you see I'm
conducting business with

the newest member of our
organization?

Put a lid on it, huh?

Dots.

I'm going to clam it up myself.

What?

Mr. Hooks, I see you taking them
happy pills again, huh?

What you got a little lead in
your pencil now?

Is that it?

Oh, look at you.

Yeah, get out of my face.

You're starting to lose it a
little bit.

We're listening to the cello.

You've got to bring

The cello?

What was I saying before I was
so rudely interrupted?

Mike!

You make sure everything fits
just right, I'm all yours.

Antonio?

Yeah?

Take the bullets that Vinnie
likes, okay?

Vin?

Yeah, and then you bring that
new boy.

What's his name?

Bennie?

Boss, boss.

Sammy.

Oh, Sammy, Sammy.

That's Mikey's son.

You take Sammy with you
tomorrow and you show him the

ropes, capisce?

Capisce.

Now, Mike, you make sure when
you do the suit I've got

room for the gun over here and
the cigars over there.

Capisce?

Yes, you would look wonderful
in black sharkskin.

Come on, Vinnie, catch the
ball.

Yeah, you throw like a girl.

Why don't you throw the ball
right, like a man.

Catch the ball!

That's what I'm talking about.

It slipped out of my hands.

I'm telling you Jakey it's too
soon.

Don't you know the Don doesn't
want

to come out to public yet.

You know what I'm saying.

No, I don't know what you're
saying.

I mean it's risky.

You know he may get killed.

What am I going to do, huh?

My hands are tied.

Wait a minute, he's my cousin.

Yeah.

And we've got to do something.

Yeah.

I'm saying this now, if
anything happens I'm holding you

responsible personally.

Oh, me personally responsible?

Yeah, you.

I'm going to take the Don out,
is that what you're

insinuating, Carmine?

Yeah.

What do you want?

Hey Jakey.

Listen, kid, I'm not crazy
about you being around here you

know but we're going to make it
work, right?

Yeah?

You do exactly as I tell you

everything is going to be just
fine.

You understand?

Yeah.

I'm going to give you a break
against my better judgement.

You get it?

Got it.

Good.

You're a smart kid, kid.

Hey, Vinnie.

Come over here.

Show this kid how to handle a
piece.

Let me tell you something kid,
you gonna have more babes

hanging on your arm, more money
in your fucking pocket than

your pockets can hold.

So much.

And you're going to be hanging
with the boss.

This is like Downtown.

Yeah, there's only one problem.

You're going to have to do
certain things at certain times.

Even when you don't want to do
them.

It's like when we whacked
Charlie Grapefruits.

I remember.

Tony decided that we should
chop him up.

So Tony took the hack saw
chopped his arms off.

I chopped his legs off.

We stuffed them
in different bags.

You know what I'm saying so the
coppers wouldn't find out.

This is Downtown.

Absolutely Don.

You know what, come with me.

The warm colors they hide the
spaghetti stains.

Yes.

Miss Ferrari she's going to
really respond to your wishes.

Every woman loves flowers.

Thank you for your expert
council.

Now I got to tell you something.

You're the kind of man that
knows the meaning of integrity,

respect and people like you
deserve to be rewarded.

I want you to take over my book
keeping operations here in

your store.

Well I tell you I need to get
out from under these debts.

How much do you owe?

Well if your suit was worth
$2,000,

I'll tell you something,

I'd be almost out of debt.

Wait, one suit worth $2,000.

That's a lot of money.

Hey Mike.

Mike do me this service

and don't worry about the other
stuff.

Capece?.

I don't know.

I don't know what I've done to
deserve such an honor.

Thank you so much.

Listen, I want you to take my
cigarette lighter.

It belonged to my father.

I want you to have it.

You've been like a father to me.

Mike, I keep it in my best
pocket.

Happy? We go manga.

Wait till you see the feast I
got.

Benne, benne! Let's go.

All right Frankie.

Close your eyes.

They're closed.

Close your eyes.

They're closed.

I can't see anything.

Okay, you ready?

Yeah.

All right, keep them closed.

Step.

This is making me nervous.

No, don't be nervous.

Turn around, turn around.

Give me this, give me this.

All right, you ready?

Yes.

Open up.

What is this?

Nothing?

Look.

Huh?

Tony!

What is this?

Isn't that fantastic?

Tony, my god.

Look, I know I promised you a
picnic at the statue of

liberty today, but it's raining.

I know a guy.

What is all of this?

Well he works in the picture
business.

He owed me a favor so I figured

you could use a couple pictures.

You know a couple of them big
pictures.

It's amazing.

I can't believe you did this.

Sure beats sitting watching the
Don eat all day.

They keep coming and coming.

Aww.

That's Luigi Infantino, I love
him.

This is some good food.

Heh?

You're so sweet.

Oh my god.

This mein is so good.

Hey Tony, you know those hills
behind statue of liberty?

What is that?

Staten Island?

No, I think you're talking
about Brooklyn.

They've got little houses out
there

with trees, families, kids.

You know it doesn't smell like
Manhattan .

Yeah, that's the trees.

It's called air.

Well there it is.

Yeah.

My bad.

I see you.

Can you imagine having a little
place out there of our own

with some trees and a lawn and
some fences.

Fences?

Yeah.

Yeah, maybe.

Tone.

Come on.

What.

Come on.

There's nobody here.

I'm trying to have a
conversation here.

Nobody's here.

Look.

Is anyone here?

I need a place at the park
avenue tower with the doorman

and room service.

Not fences and trees.

Besides, every time I go to
Brooklyn,

I don't breathe so good.

I don't think its good for me.

Come on, let's eat some more of
this food.

Dance with me.

Dance with you?

You know what would be good for
your health?

What?

Walking away from all of this.

You could be your own boss.

You could do what you want to
do.

How many times do we got to
talk about this?

I can't get out like I'm
quitting a job.

You can't give a two week.

Believe me, I would if I could.

Would you?

Yeah I would.

I could see me with some little
cool little store on

Madison with silk dots hanging
in the window.

You know what I call it?

What?

I call it dots the ticket.

Yeah.

Who knows, maybe a club on 42nd
Street.

Yeah.

The boys come buy, chew their
fat.

Hey.

Hey.

Yeah yeah.

I see a great idea.

You'd have a club on 42nd.

What are you thinking?

What?

That'd be the same thing.

You got a little place like that
those lousy good for

nothings are coming hanging
around you.

Being like nothings changed at
all.

Come on.

Jesus.

Think about it.

Chew on it a little bit.

We'll see.

Okay.

...

Jesus you get like Graziano.

You love it.

I do.

Sammy, stop slurping your food.

Please?

I will.

This is good.

Thanks.

You should have seen Pop, mom.

Really?

Yeah.

He didn't even let it on to the
Don

that he's trying to make a suit
his whole life.

Really?

Yeah.

He was just sitting at the end
of the table.

He didn't even care.

Yeah.

I'm making his suit the whole
time.

Really?

What I want to know is what the
hell you're doing in the

mob now anyway?

Next thing you know you're going
to be carrying a gat?

Mr. Bigshot.

Maybe you're interested

in one of those floozeys down
there.

Lil, what are you talking
about?

What is wrong with you?

These guys are garbage.

I'm doing this for the family.

It's Sammy.

He's got The Don all excited.

I thought you're just going to
make a suit.

No he got him all excited and
the next thing you know he

says you're one of us.

Like you're in.

In!

You know?

What am I supposed to say to
this guy?

No?

Yeah.

When does making a suit go with
being in the mob.

I'm a little confused.

Sammy, god damn it.

Shut up.

If you don't stop using the
lord's name in vain.

Hey Lil, you shut up too.

Me shut up.

Are you telling me to shut up?

You shut up!

Anybody want dessert?

Coffee?

Sit tight, Sam.

Yeah don't move kid.

How much these jerks owe anyway?

Tony, I'll take this door okay?

Take the other door.

Hey Mr. Vecchio, how you doing?

What the hell are you jerks
doing here huh?

So you ain't paid up yet?

Oh, Tony I just paid them.

I thought it was yous.

What other guys?

I don't know.

Tony, better not see you
assholes in here.

That's all I'm going to tell you
right now.

We're going to have a problem
right now, jerks.

What the fuck is this?

Look who's here?

Here we go!

Come on!

You motherfuckers!

Here shit head.

That's for showing up.

Here!

You like that?

You like that?

Shoot him Sam!

Shoot him Sammy!

Sammy, pull the trigger
goddammit.

[GUN SHOTS]

[RADIO PLAYING OPERA]

As you can see, there's much
wisdom

in keeping this idea private.

Never leaving this room.

We're all agreed?

Good.

Now, I'm going to eat my
spaghetti.

Mr. Piano, excuse my
interruption but I don't think
that I can

agree with your assessment.

What do you mean you don't
agree with my assessment?

What are you talking about?

Yeah, Mr. Piano, I mean how can
you expect us to remain silent

and overlook these obvious
infractions of the law when the

financial remumeration is so
limited.

Yes, I noticed that too.

Hey, hey!

What is this bullshit?

Don't talk to me like that.

You shut up.

You eat your pasta.

You shut up.

You got the plans.

You keep quiet.

This is finito.

Gentlemen, please, kindly
maintain a dignified manner.

Thank you chief and you too
Marvin

for all your eloquent
observations.

What's dignified?

That's enough, huh.

No more, basta.

What are you doing?

Get out of my club you show no
respect, huh?

You take your goons and get out
of here.!

I protest this ungentlemanly
treatment and I request.

Shut up!

Shut up!

You take this Stunod and you get
rid of him before I have

him for dessert.

What do you mean dessert?

How dare you?

Who do you think you're talking
to?

Dots get rid of this cockroach
huh?

Vin, get rid of the bug, huh?

Come on, let's go.

Oh, somebody's disturbing the
Don?

What should we do about this?

I know.

He needs an exterminator, huh.

[GUN SHOT]

What the- .

What are you doing?

He ain't dead, he's still
blubbering under foot.

There he goes.

Jakie, you burn these papers
and you clean up this place.

I had a good fucking hand.

You almost shot the old lady
for christ's sake.

Come on Honey, you okay?

Look at my lunch, look at my
lunch.

Enough, pasta.

Clean this shit up, Tailor.

Let me eat my spaghetti.

All right Don, I'm sorry.

Hey Sammy.

What you doing?

I'm a little busy right now,
Donna.

What's going on?

Hey, why don't you take me to
the dance Saturday night?

That sounds amazing.

I don't think I can make it
though.

You better go.

Yeah sure.

Bye Sammy.

Pop!

What?

I got to talk to you.

Not now Sammy, not now.

Pop I need to talk to you now.

What is more important than me

almost getting killed in there.

How about me almost getting
killed too.

What you talking about getting
killed.

I been out with the boys,
making collections.

We run into the Crivello guys,
right?

All of a sudden, dead.

They killed him right in front
of me, dead.

Then Vinny get's into the car
and he wipes his bloody hands

on my pants.

I've got blood all over my
pants.

We got to get away from this mob
stuff, fast.

Take it easy.

I know you're upset.

Everything's have been out.

It's going to be okay.

You think?

Pop, these guys are killers.

They even wanted me to kill the
Crivello guys.

You know what Tony said?

"Yeah, you can prepare the
bodies for burial."

He thought that was really
funny.

What are you ...

Tell them about the corpses.

Now they'll never let you out.

Great.

Oh, that's great.

Just what I wanted to hear.

Yeah, they'll never run out of
bodies.

They'll shoot them, you dress
them, I bury them.

Perfect.

Okay, I'll talk to the Don.

Oh, yeah right.

Pop you're not going to talk to
the Don.

You guys are like best friends
now.

What are you going to do about
it?

Holy Mary mother-

What Pop, what?

Oh my God, these papers could
send the Don up the river.

That's from the city planning
guy.

They killed this guy.

Right there.

Today.

Pop, I got to go.

Where you going?

Frankie, hey!

Sammy.

Sorry I didn't get the chance
to talk to you over there.

How you doing?

Yeah, me too.

I'm good, what's up?

Nothing, you look fantastic.

Thanks.

I got to talk to you about
something.

What?

I've known you a long time.

I just need your help.

Like right now you want it?

Yeah, now.

I got two minutes.

Good, please, sit.

You want a smoke?

Yeah.

You look troubled.

You don't know the half of it.

We're going on my first run,
with the boys, and they iced

these two guys right in front of
me.

Yeah.

What was the problem?

They gunned down these two
Crivello guys right in front...

They didn't even care they were
doing it.

Sammy, that's what they do.

What do you think they teach
school for a living?

That's their purpose.

Somebody gets in the way, bada
boom,

they're not in the way anymore.

Get it?

Yeah I get it.

Good.

That's why I got to get away
from this situation.

I know my Pop would want me to
do that.

I'm sure your Pop would
understand but you don't just
get

out of this situation.

It's best just to forget about
it.

I don't buy that.

Look, my Pop taught me what's
right and wrong, you know?

He's got it so good right now

he doesn't even know what's
right.

You got it all wrong.

Just wait and see.

I can't wait.

I got to talk to somebody now.

Hey, maybe Tony could help us.

You think?

Us?

What is the us part?

There is no us, Sammy.

There's just you and me, all
right?

There isn't no us.

Don't you want to get away from
these assholes too?

Hey.

I got my own plans.

You'll see.

I got to talk to Tony, right
now.

I can't wait anymore, do you
know where he is?

Do you want to go with me?

All right, listen, I don't want
you going off half cocked,

all right?

You think before you talk.

Okay?

Fine.

Let's go.

Come on.

Hey Tone.

Hey babe.

Some car, huh?

It's beautiful.

Yes, it's going to be mine some
day.

Sammy, where you been?

Hey Tone.

Tone, I got to talk to you.

I need your help.

What's the problem big guy?

I want out of the mob.

You want what?

Out of the organization?

Yeah.

You know what, maybe I don't
hear so good.

Say that again.

No, no you heard me.

I want out.

Me and my Pop.

We don't want to be part of this
organization anymore.

Frankie what you been telling
him?

Nothing, Tony.

He's new.

He don't know.

You been giving him ideas?

Stupid ideas about turning on
the Don?

Hey, that can be dangerous.

I got to do something before
my...

Hey, before what?

Nothing can be done, believe me,
I know.

Now forget about it.

Hey, it ain't that bad.

Look, Sam, I like you.

You can ask me for anything.

You, you're talking crazy.

Come on.

That's it.

Enough of these fucking games.

You're going to do what you're
told.

Get your head on straight.

You be at the lounge in an hour.

We got some work to do.

Here finish the wax job, respect
your commitments.

Pick yourself up before someone
sees you.

Stop embarrassing yourself.

You, come on.

Let's get some coffee.

Okay, yeah.

Apple sauce on the fifth, two
dollars.

Okay.

Okay.

Black Knight, ninth okay.

Yeah, I got it.

Hey, you Mike the tailor?

Who wants to know?

Yeah, that's him boss.

You the one who's been racking
up the tab with me.

All of sudden you're paying it
down, that's good.

I paid my vig, I'm almost paid
up.

I'm Cosmo Crivello,

Mr. Crivello to you.

I know who you are.

Yeah, what about it?

Nothing, absolutely nothing.

I just ...

I'm not here to hurt you.

I hear you're making a couple of
jackets and a fine suit

for fat Piano, is that right?

No, I'm just making a black
sharkskin suit for Mr. Piano.

Yo, boss, what the hell is
sharkskin?

Shut the hell up.

I want you to make me a jacket
exactly like fat piano.

That means identical.

Exactly why me?

Because I like sharkskin, you
owe me money, and I hear

you're the best tailor around.

I'm a little busy right now.

So this will be a perfect time
to take my measurement.

You do a good job and I wipe out
the debt,

and you become my personal
tailor.

This is a special surprise to my
friend Don Piano.

This visit is strictly between
you and me.

That means no one's supposed to
know.

Listen, you look like a smart
guy.

You don't look like a guy who
needs any convincing.

No

Good.

When is this surprise going to
be due?

For the mayor's lunch.

You take as long as you want,

but it better be there next
week.

That means in seven days.

And it better be identical.

That means exactly.

Come on Mike, take my
measurements.

I got a bocci game to attend to

and I don't want to be late.

All right, let's do it.

All right.

Hey Lil, what's the matter?

What's the matter?

You want to know what's the
matter?

What were you thinking

when you decided to take this
crazy job, Mike?

It certainly wasn't the security
of your family.

Now he wants me to cook for him.

He wants me to cook for fat
Piano.

It's only for a couple of
weeks.

Until his cook gets out of the
hospital, that's all.

Out of the hospital?

Yeah, she got shot.

Accidentally.

Oh, what a relief.

An accident.

I feel so much better.

Lil' listen, it's not what
happens,

it's what we do about it.

Right Sammy?

You got to admit, Dad's got a
lot more business

since it started.

'Nita mind your business.

It's nothing to do with you.

You cook for him or it's my
neck.

Or I until I get shot too, is
that what you're thinking?

He's not going to shoot you.

He loves your cooking too much.

You know, there's a lot of
poisons, when I think about it.

That I could put in that fat
slobs meal.

He wouldn't even know the
difference

the way he consumes food.

He's like a bottomless pit.

He just eats and he eats and he
eats.

A week ago, you knocked his
bumper off his car.

It was an accident.

Right, okay, fine, but I bring
it in the shop, I save your

life, I'd say a little bit.

Dad is asking you right now to
save our lives.

Pop's asking you for two weeks.

Please.

We're in trouble right now, mom.

Okay.

You get you and your son out of
the mob and I'll cook for

his fat highness.

If you break your word I swear.

Lil!

You don't do this.

I'll be hanging in some dego
meat locker in Hackensack.

And by the way I don't see you
complaining about the extra

money that I'm bringing home.

Of course it's nice to have
extra money, but what's the,

what's the good of it if all I
can do

is give you a better funeral?

I don't care about the money.

I care about you.

Please don't mention funerals,
Ma.

My stomach is killing me.

Yeah, I got adgida too.

You better get us out of this.

I'll get us out.

You better.

What possessed you to get into
the mob?

You were only going to make him
a suit?

For once I wanted to have some
importance, a little self

respect, some money, a little
power, that's it.

I know honey, but that's not
the way.

Well, in the meantime if Uncle
Charlie doesn't convince

the Don to let me out, well then
you're my last hope.

God, I hope we live through
this because if we don't I'm

going to kill you.

Charlie!

Hello!

Yeah?

You don't recognize me do you?

How can I forget?

Charlie, come on, its Francesca

Francesca.

Yeah.

Francesca.

Oh, gorgeous.

How's your mother?

She hasn't been the same since
daddy got killed.

That's why I'm doing what I'm
doing.

You know?

No.

I'm running with the mob.

With legs like yours?

Come on.

I'm not kidding.

I'm Franki.

Franki?

Yeah, yeah you haven't heard
about me?

Oh, Dot's girl?

I thought it was some Jadrool
running

around shooting his mouth off.

No.

I wanted to find you to talk
about a thing.

Since you know all about what
happened.

What was I supposed to do?

Just sit around

and let the killers of my father
run around unpunished?

No, that's why I'm going to

kill that fat lousy bastard
Piano.

Whoa!

Shh, come here.

Okay.

Shh.

I'm not kidding around,
Charlie.

Revenge is sweet but but you
know who killed him

and if anybody ever saw us
talking like this

we'd both be in big trouble.

Now shut that pretty mouth.

I don't want to get you in any
trouble Charlie, but I've

got to do this.

I never told anybody any of this
but the fact is when I was

17 years old I saw them take out
my father, right in front

of my eyes.

I saw him go down.

By the order of the great Don
Piano.

I'm never gonna forget that.

I know

I'm gonna make sure they never
forget it either.

I do too.

What?

I was working for the Don at
the time.

When Fat Angelo, he came back
from Italy.

And then his father died,

his first official gesture was
to um...

To kill my father

Right.

He was gonna pop anybody who was
disagreeing with him.

I told him this was a bad game
plan and they need to forget

about this.

Your father was a good man.

It happened so fast.

I don't know.

I'm so sorry honey.

Every day I make nice to that
fat fucking eating machine.

This is gonna stop.

This is gonna end Charlie.

I don't wanna hear you talk
this way.

Hey.

I'm gonna take care of
everything.

This is gonna get done?

You hear what I just said?

Molto bene, this is very good,
bellissimo.

Mrs. Esposito I can't wait to
sample this beautiful dishes.

[PHONE RINGS]

Beautiful.

You're a genius.

I love it all.

It's good.

Yeah.

What do you mean he don't want
to pay?

What do you do?

You break his arm.

Hey, you don't call me.

I'm having a I'm eating now.

Son of a bitch.

Ah, Mike, your wife is as good a
cook

as you are a tailor, huh?

It's a good thing I had that
Crivello rubbed out, huh?

Maybe we'd have never got
together.

Hey, Mike, I hope this is going
to make no difference to my

fitting huh?

oh, no it will be no problem,
Angelo, but there's another

matter I'd like to, a little
delicate matter I'd like to

talk to you ...

You see my son Sammy ...

Sammy?

Sammy who?

He's my son Sammy?

Oh, yeah, yeah okay.

He was on collections.

Collections?

With your boys.

Yeah, so, yeah, yeah.

And I just don't think that he
should be doing that

because, no because he should be
in the shop with me.

What do you mean?

Hey Mike ...

I just don't think that Sammy
and me are worthy of being

members of such an important
organization.

I mean I'm not worthy of your
generosity and I think it was

a mistake for me to accept
membership in your family.

Mike, you don't want to upset
the Don do you?

No, no.

I must be hearing someone
else's words.

No, it's not just ...

No, it's not that.

It's just ...

Mike, I give you a chance to
rephrase what you want to say

to me.

Don Piano, I want to resign
from your organization.

Mike, I'm not liking what I'm
hearing.

Please?

Please?

You have to release me from this
commitment.

I'm not ...

It's not for me.

Mike, Mike, I fire people, but
nobody quits me.

Nobody quits my organization
unless they're dead, morta.

Now Miguel, you and me we
paisanos and you're one of the

best tailors in all of New York
City.

Don't do something that is going
to come between us.

You make a big mistake.

If you do what I tell you, you
mind your own business

everything going to be okay,

but if you don't do what I say,

if you so much as shorten my
suit pants by this much I

have you swimming with the
fishes on the ocean side.

Capisce?

Enough.

Okay.

Enough.

Let me remind you of your
obligations.

Next week I have a very
important engagement.

I'm relying on your integrity to
make me worthy of the

mayor's special honor.

Of course, of course.

So, if we're done with this
fitting I have other business

to attend to.

Yeah.

You may go.

Yes.

Good day, Don.

Good day to you.

[RADIO PLAYING]

Hey Joey!

Hey Joey.

Joey.

Is Charlie in?

Where do I know you from?

You go to the track?

He liked you.

Are you good Charlie?

I'm fine salute.

To friendship, huh Charlie?

Absolutely.

So, Charlie, what do you want?

What can I do for you?

Uh, the reason I asked for this
sit was Mikey the tailor.

You know Mikey?

He's my nephew.

Mikey the tailor, he's yours?

He's my tailor.

He's the best tailor in all of
New York City.

He's going to make me a great
suit, sharkskin.

I heard about the sharkskin.

Yeah?

Best tailor in New York.

I want to ask you to stay away
from

Mikey and his son Sammy.

He's nice, they're good people.

They shouldn't even be making
you suits come on.

Hey Charlie, come on.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I think we're talking is done,
Charlie.

I'm telling you.

Yeah?

Stay away from my nephew.

Don Piano,

If you don't stay away from my
nephew you're going to have

to deal with me.

You don't threaten me and you
don't tell me what to do

Where the hell'd you go?

Are you all right?

Oh.

What's the matter?

Nothing, I'm good.

I'm good.

You sure?

Oh, Charlie.

How could you leave me?

You son of a bitch.

I cook and clean and slave for
you all of my life and this

is what you do to me?

It's okay Aunt Rose.

Oh, we just started to enjoy
our lives.

I'll make it right.

Oh I want you to kill that
bastard.

I'll make it right.

I'm going to get that pig scum

You help me Mike.

You help me.

I'll make it right.

I need a brandy.

We've got to get that bastard.

He killed my Charlie.

You help me Mike.

Come on.

Help her, help her to her chair.

Okay.

Come on.

He's going to pay for this.

I'll get you some.

He's a killer!

Can I help you sir?

No thanks, I was just ...

No.

You could just go in and ask
for the desk sergeant.

Uh, no thanks.

I'm just leaving.

I give these papers to somebody
on Piano's payroll,

I'm dead.

You wanted a fitting Angelo?

Mike.

We brought the jacket for you
Don Piano and we put the

plates in that you asked, the
extra protection in addition

to the vest part that Pop sewed
into the jacket.

Sammy, you try it on eh?

What?

Why Sammy?

I want to see how it looks.

Okay, try it on.

Pop, it's going to be too big
for me.

I know.

See there Jakey that's the
sharkskin.

Sharkskin isn't it?

Elegant.

Nice job Mike.

It will look good on you.

You can't tell how this fits
anyway.

[GUN SHOT]

Oh!

Sammy! Sammy!

Why?

I wanted to see if the metal
plates worked.

They worked.

Yeah, it works nice huh Jakey?

Thank you Mike, you may go.

What if it didn't work?

Then you'd have a couple of
days to fix it.

You're going to come with me to
the mayor's lunch.

Frankie, you scared the shit
out of me.

What do you want? I ain't
perfect.

I got something that's going to
get us

all out of this mess.

These papers are going to send
the Don up the river.

All right?

I'm stitching them into the
jacket so at the right moment

the seam will split and the
papers will fall out.

What's this hole in the bullet
proof vest for?

That's an area over the Don's
heart..

So then if they don't fall out,
then what?

I'm going to kill him.

I'm going to shoot him right
through the heart.

What am I talking about?

I'm desperate.

I don't know.

You're going to kill Piano?

You're tougher than I thought,
Mike.

It's got to be done, but if we
do our part everything's

going to be fine.

What's this we part?

You have to make sure that the
Don stays close to the

mayor at the ceremony because
when the papers fall out the

mayor has got to get them
because if the Don's boys get

them they're going to grind me
into dog food.

So what if it does work?

The mayor is going to find the
papers, great and then the

Don is going to know exactly

who put the papers in his suit.

What are you ...

They're right next door.

What about you?

I don't care about me.

I just care about my wife and my
son.

For the first time something I
do makes a difference.

I love you for doing this,
Mike.

Son of a bitch.

Love?

What are you talking about love?

It's Tony that you love.

Tony, my God Tony.

Yeah.

What's going to happen to him
when all this goes down?

No, no, no.

If I help you do it this way
then you've got to help me

make sure that Tony stays clear
of all of it.

You do your part and I'll do
mine.

Deal?

Deal.

*

Where you been Frankie?

Tony, you scared the living
crap out of me.

Where you been?

Nowhere really.

I didn't see you in the dark
with Mike the tailor

whispering in his ear when I
drove by about an hour ago?

I just had some business to
discuss with him

about the lunch.

It's nothing for you to worry
about.

You think I'm stupid or
something?

If you're fucking this guy
you're both going to be

sorry about it.

You got nothing to worry about.

I just had some business to
discuss and it's something to

do with my past and I don't want
anybody to know about it

all right?

Okay, good, good all right.

Well I'm listening, this better
be good.

I'm listening.

I've got to have somebody
eliminated all right,

and I don't want to talk about
it.

Okay.

You've got to have someone
eliminated.

Why didn't you say so?

I can help you.

Huh?

Come on Frankie.

It doesn't matter, babe.

Let's talk about something else.

Who is it?

Come on, come on.

Frankie, come on.

Who is it?

Tell me who it is.

Frankie, tell me who it is.

Who is it?

It's the Don.

What are you crazy?

Goin' nuts on me?

Jesus Christ these women they're
always going crazy on me.

That fat fuck is responsible
for my father's death.

I saw it with my own eyes.

I watched him go down.

I've been working on this for a
long time.

It is happening this Friday,
that fat fuck is falling down.

Frankie, if that happens I am a
dead man.

Do you understand that?

That's why I'm trying to keep
you out of it Tony.

I don't want you to have
anything to do with it.

This whole time you've been
planning on killing him?

Using me ...

Wait, baby.

No wait.

Using me that whole time is
that what you're telling me?

Wait, wait, wait!

Tony wait just listen to me
okay?

Is that what you're telling me?

No, yes.

In the beginning yes I was using
you in the beginning but

then Tony, Tony then I fell in
love with you.

You and your stupid dotted ties
and the way you smell.

Now I'm just going to have to
kill you too.

You're going to kill me?

I've got to kill you or it's my
neck.

Or?

Or we've got to kill the Don.

Yeah, okay.

We kill the Don then we're both
free.

Then we're free.

We can do this.

We can do this.

We're going to do this.

And it will be done.

Take the cane

Ok, ok, I got it.

Easy.

Come on, I gotch you.

Hey Mikey, ever meet the Mayor

Hey Miguel, you like a cigar?

Yeah, it makes me relax.

Makes you relax?

Huh?

Yeah.

You try these.

These are Clevelands, very
special.

My favorite.

Thank you Don.

I just thought you might need a
little support on your big

day, huh?

Always with you, belladona.

Ah!

Look who's here!

Oh!

The guest of honor!

How are you?

Hey, mister Mayor, grazie.

All right.

Grazie.

Piano.

Fat Piano.

I'm Crivello.

And who is this lovely young
lady?

This is Frankie, mister mayor.

She's with my driver Antonio.

Frankie, all right.

Beautiful here.

Look at this.

Thank you.

It's not much but we call it
home.

Here you go.

It's beautiful.

Come on in.

My hat, grazie, grazie.

This is lovely, beautiful mister
mayor.

[TAPPING ON GLASS]

Oh excuse me, yeah, yeah ...

Excuse me, may I have your
attention?

Boy, we've got a lot of Italians
in this room, plenty of

noise here.

Today is a very special and dare
I say historic day in this

great city.

Without further ado it gives me
great pleasure to introduce

to you a man among men, an ally
of this great city,

and a personal friend of mine.

Please let's have a warm welcome
for our benefactor,

Mr. Angelo Giuseppe Piano.

[APPLAUSE]

Thank you Mayor Laguardia.

Mayor Laguardia, thank you so
much.

The chief of police ladies and
gentlemen, and my beautiful

niece Marlene come all the way
from Italy to be here with

her uncle.

Grazie, grazie, on this special
day.

In a manner of speaking ...

If you want something done
you've got to do it yourself.

What are you looking at?

And my poppa he see me today
he'd be so proud.

Mayor Laguardia you know how
hard the Italian people work

to get what they get.

My father when he came here long
time ago

to America he had nothing...

I'll hit you right where your
heart never was.

...this wonderful business, Don
Piano Associates.

I am so honored ...

What the hell? Goddammit.

...to be his son, but let me say
this Mayor Laguardia.

This is just the beginning of
many, many future ...

This is for you, Charlie.

This great city of New York.

...and Don Piano ...

Shit.

...Associates...

Shit!

...So, without any further ado
as we say in Italian.

Manjadee!

[MULTIPLE GUN SHOTS]

[SCREAMING]

What the hell is this?

You bastard!

Give me that!

Pop!

You all right?

Yeah, I thought they got me.

Well did you get him?

They got him.

They got him.

Go outside I'll be out there in
a second.

Where you going?

Go to hell Piano.

You get what you deserve.

Here, you missed your lunch
fatso.

Oh, man.

Pop!

Yeah?

Where were you?

you all right?

Yeah, yeah.

I don't know what happened to
Jakey and everybody else.

[LAUGHTER]

Charlie!

Charlie!

It was you.

I don't believe it.

I mean you just let him have it.

I shot him in the face, hey.

The body can't do nothing if the
head don't work.

Get in the car all right?

You too kid.

You want me in the car?

Yeah I want you in the car.

Very sensitive kid.

I want you in the car.

Charlie, Charlie I can't
believe that you're here.

Your whole family thought you
were dead.

Because of this guy.

Well he made the suit for me.

You wore the suit?

The same as you.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They both have holes in them.

Yeah.

All right, well nothing's
perfect.

This is the man that did it all.

Oh speaking of holes in things,
you take this gun

before I shoot myself in the
foot with it okay?

Yeah, you're not going to shoot
yourself in the foot.

How do you know?

I took the firing pin out.

You did what?

I took the firing pin out.

You give me a gun that doesn't
work?

That's right so you don't shoot
yourself in the foot.

Hey when I die I hope I have a
good a funeral as I had.

Didn't I look handsome?

Yes you did.

Did I look good?

He did the make up...
everything.

Yeah, but they never got the
hair right.

You know what I'm worried
about?

Aunt Rosie, she finds out I'm
alive she's going to kill me.

Yeah, then we'll have that
funeral sooner than you think.

No more funerals, all right.

We're through with that.

Let's get out of here.

*

Just like you asked, Pop.

Hey, look at that.

Oh my God!

It's him. It's Mayor Laguardia.

What him? What are you talking
about?

No, it really is. It really
is.

Hey, how are you?

How's your knee?

It's Laguardia.

I saw him yesterday.

Hey, how are you doing?

Good to see you.

All right.

Are you Mr. Esposito the
proprietor of this
establishment?

How can I help you, yes?

Step aside Schmool.

Mr. Esposito, I am of the belief
that you're the person most

responsible for the recent
demise of a major crime figure.

No disrespect your honor but I
don't know what you're

talking about.

We saw the papers falling out
of Piano's jacket sleeve and

upon further investigation it
was revealed that you had

just completed making him his
suit.

A very fine suit may I say and I
myself personally

commandeered the papers.

Then it worked.

See I was commanded to make a
sharkskin suit.

What the hell is sharkskin?

But I had nothing to do with
his killing.

We know that.

Of course not.

That was a revenge gangland
slaying executed by

professionals, people you would
never be associated with.

No.

But Mr. Esposito if it weren't
for your integrity, your ability
to

mastermind this bold and
brilliant plan we would have
never

been able to expose the
swindling of public funds and

special interests.

Great work, Pop.

Absolutely brilliant.

Easy.

Your father is a hero, an
American hero, a credit to every

hardworking Italian Americans
everywhere.

As mayor of this fair city I
commend you Michael Esposito

for your courage, your bravery,
your honor.

Mike the tailor allow me to
shake your hand,

it would be my pleasure.

Come on. Let's get a nice
picture.

Get it all. Look at that.

This is a hero, a great Italian
American hero.

Not like those bums at Tammany
Hall.

A real hero.

Excuse us, excuse us.

Listen, Mike you have to make
me a suit, something nice

like Piano.

I mean you do impeccable work.

My pleasure.

You'll come to my office

and we'll have some lunch
together.

You'll arrange for the details.

All right Schmool?

Thank you your honor.

I don't know what to say.

Don't forget to bring your tape
measure.

All right?

Because you know I'm a little
more svelte than Piano.

Who isn't all right?

Are you sure you're not a little
Jewish?

Like me, I'm part Jewish.

I mean you've got the job.

Look at this guy already.

Enough.

Nice hat.

My aunt has a hat like that.

She paid retail for it.

He's funny.

He's like a real guy.

He could be like a comedian.

Thank you, God bless you all.

Sammy!

I'm so proud of you.

It's Frankie.

Come on in.

I didn't want to disturb you.

Don't worry about it.

You all look so peaceful.

Hey, hi Frankie.

Hi Sammy.

Just wanted to ...

Frankie! Frankie!

Hey!

I've been looking for you.

Yeah, where you been I've been
worried about you?

Mike, Sammy.

I've been preparing for the
future.

Our future.

Oh?

Yeah, yeah look what I picked
up real cheap.

What are you doing?

I got it from Hugo.

I bought every single one.

For what?

Because I'm going to go look at
a little shop

on the east side.

Yeah.

Will you go with me?

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Oh how sweet.

God bless.

Thank you

Very nice.

Ah, what are we doing, honey?

Here, we'll have a little
celebration.

A salud.

Okay, because everything is so
wonderful.

A little wine.

Thank you son.

Pop, it looks like you're going
to be in the newspapers.

Yeah, well I hope they mention
the shop.

Alright, um.

What are you doing over there?

Don't worry about it.

Jesus Christ.

Holy shit.

What's that?

Look at this.

Wow.

It saved my life.

What?

Oh!

Is that a hundred dollar bill?

It's a thousand dollars.

It's a thousand dollars.

Oh!

Holy God in heaven!

You know first this guy tries
to kill me

then he saves my life.

Who?

What do you think?

I'll tell you about it sometime
tonight.

Okay.

Yeah.

In fact you can tell me over a
nice hot meal.

Ah, beautiful.

Look at this.

These are the best cigars band
I've ever seen.

Three Clevelands.

Cleveland, Cleveland and
Cleveland.

Baboom.

No more fooling around.

Let's get back to some real work
over here.

All right, fair enough.

Pop, you've got to make yourself
a new suit it looks like.

Yeah, I've got to cut myself a
pattern.

I could do that for you.

These two, will wonders never
cease.

Yeah, let me make you a suit.

Look what I got.

This really is a thousand
dollar bill.

Thousand dollars.

Listen, your mother and I are
going home.

You take over.

Me?

You're in charge.

Come on.

You know the mayor would look
terrific in a nice gabardine.

I don't know, maybe sharkskin.

Gabardine with the sharkskin
...

No, sharkskin.

I'm looking for the tailor.

I'm the tailor.

Yes?

I'm Marlene Piano, Don Piano's
niece.

Yes, yes.

I'm Sam Esposito.

How can I be of service to you
Miss Piano?

You may now call me Dona Piano

since I'm now assuming control

of running the family business.

So, I need you to prepare my
uncle

for the viewing tomorrow.

Oh, no.

Are you refusing to do what I
ask?

No, I just don't know how you
knew

I used to be a mortician.

I didn't.

I just want him to look good.

Then after the wake,

you take the suit you made so
beautiful

for him and fit it as a suit for
me.

Capisce?

Yes.

It would be a pleasure.

So, do we take the measurements
now?

No?

Tomorrow then.

You come, you make him look
good.

Then you come to my place.

Hey!

Don't forget to bring your tape
measure.

Hello, Sam.

Finish your coffee,
then you fit me.
