00:01Tonight on Wiseguy
00:02The first thing I'd like you to do is deal with the Terranova problem
00:05What Terranova problem?
00:06He's a criminal
00:13There is a crisis in this room
00:15There are guys out there that aren't so happy
00:17If this crisis finds its way to our family
00:21I will return to the business
00:23You do not want that
00:25You came all the way out here to tell us
00:27To leave a guy alone that we ain't even bothering
00:57BANG!
03:59See you tomorrow, Al.
04:00Right on.
04:01Part of the quality is the speakers you bought, but it's the house too.
04:03What is this place?
04:0450, 60 years old.
04:06Great acoustics, whatever it is.
04:10Is there something the matter?
04:13I know you.
04:15From high school, Mount Carmel, right?
04:17You're Al Marullo, aren't you?
04:18And you're P.D.
04:19Terranova's brother, right?
04:20Yeah, yeah.
04:21Vinny, how you doing?
04:22Come on.
04:23God, I was real sorry to hear about your brother.
04:26Yeah.
04:27Yeah.
04:29I remember you from high school, man.
04:30You were the best tight end I ever saw.
04:33You know, I spent my whole freshman year trying to be like you.
04:35I even tried to run like you.
04:38I had great legs, huh?
04:39You could have been another Ditka.
04:43Well, I could still have the heart attack.
04:46You know, it's not bad enough for these guys that Isaac had a coronary.
04:49They want to give me one too.
04:50Didn't you ever talk to Isaac about the living trust I suggested?
04:53Yeah.
04:54I talked to him about it, and he listened.
04:56He always listened.
04:57And then I guess he'd still wind up thinking,
04:58well, when I die, she's going to get everything anyway.
05:00So, uh, Isaac, why didn't you know this was going to all come down on my head?
05:06Amber, come on, please.
05:07Don't tear yourself up.
05:09We can get past this.
05:12How?
05:13How is my department?
05:16I just don't like being so dependent on you.
05:18Hmm.
05:20Don't worry.
05:20Your image is intact.
05:22You're still the most self-sufficient woman I know.
05:26And the most appealing.
05:30It's nice to know the woman isn't off the road.
05:32I doubt the IRS is going to give a damn about that.
05:35I started taking steps the moment I got wind of what they had in store for you,
05:38to build you as much protection as possible.
05:40Now, the first thing I'd like you to do is deal with the Terranova problem.
05:44What Terranova problem?
05:46He's a criminal, a felon, one of those shady characters that keeps you under the IRS microscope.
05:52Roger, he's a friend.
05:53He did nothing but good for Shackla while Isaac was alive,
05:56and he's been there for me ever since Isaac died.
05:59He may be a good guy, but he carries baggage.
06:03For Shackla's sake, you should sever ties with Mr. Terranova immediately.
06:11Vinny.
06:14Vinny's been good to me, Roger.
06:17Yeah, I had a ton of schools chasing me to play football in.
06:20Notre Dame, Boston College, Pitt.
06:22I'm surprised you didn't just take your wife along with you.
06:25She could have led chairs for you.
06:26Pregnant? No way, Vin.
06:29I didn't even stick around Mount Carmel to finish my senior year.
06:32Priest thought that a high school father would corrupt the school.
06:35It was the dark ages then.
06:37Yeah.
06:37So I dropped out and got a job delivered from my old man's lumber company.
06:41Yeah, I remember something like that.
06:42Besides, I played enough semi-pro football and rec league hoops to figure out my body would only last so
06:47many years.
06:48But Connie, my wife, I knew she'd always be at home to give me a big kiss when I come
06:53through the door.
06:55What, she didn't want you to run IBM?
06:58She didn't want to run it herself?
07:00I never entered her mind.
07:02She's happy just raising the three best kids in the world.
07:04That's harder than running a business.
07:06Can't fire your kids, right?
07:08Well, that's true.
07:12But she's gonna have my butt on a platter if I don't get to the market and get some of
07:17Mr. DeSorbio's sausage for dinner.
07:20Hey, why don't you come eat with us tonight?
07:23You can tell the kids what a stud their old man used to be, huh?
07:26I don't know, well, you know, a guy like me with my reputation might upset the neighbors.
07:31What are you talking about?
07:32I got uncles make you look like St. Francis of Assisi.
07:35Besides, Connie would love to meet Pete's brother.
07:43Hello.
07:44Vinny, it's me.
07:45Hey, how you doing?
07:46Uh, can you hold on for a second?
07:47I got a friend here.
07:48He's just out the door.
07:49Hold on a minute.
07:50What time for dinner?
07:51Seven.
07:52Bring your appetite.
07:53All right, I'll see you then.
07:55Hello?
07:56Vinny, I don't want to offend you.
07:57It's important that you understand that.
07:59I don't think you could offend me even if you wanted to.
08:02Well, I need you to sign a statement saying that you're no longer connected with Shakala.
08:07My lawyer insists on it.
08:09Hey, Amber, Amber, this is me, remember?
08:12Terranova with two R's.
08:13You don't have to explain anything.
08:15I told you I'd try to help you any way I could and I meant it.
08:19Just have the guy draw up the papers and send them over.
08:22I'll sign him.
08:23On one condition.
08:25What's that?
08:26I still get to see you.
08:29You got a deal.
08:31Thanks, Vinny.
08:32Okay.
08:33Goodbye.
08:41Damn.
08:48There's two seconds left, right?
08:5040,000 people screaming at the top of their lungs.
08:53Mount Carmel's down by five points.
08:55It's pouring rain outside.
08:58The ball is like a greased pig.
08:59So the quarterback takes the ball and he heaves a Hail Mary into the end zone.
09:03But it's 20 yards from where your old man's running his pattern.
09:05So he races over to it with three guys hanging all over him.
09:09He reaches out with one hand, one his bad hand,
09:12and he snatches it right out of the sky.
09:14We beat Brother Rice and win the championship.
09:16Really?
09:17Hey, would I lie to you, huh?
09:18That's great, Dad.
09:20Nah, you'll make a better catch someday.
09:22Not if he doesn't get to bed right now.
09:23Time to hit the road, pal.
09:24Come on, Mom.
09:25Let me march him upstairs, will ya?
09:27And check his homework.
09:28All right.
09:29And tell your big sister she melts that tape,
09:31or she don't have to bother coming home from school anymore.
09:34Hey, we'll get the ball out tomorrow.
09:36Little Al, we'll throw it around, huh?
09:37Okay, Dad.
09:38Good night.
09:39Good night, buddy.
09:40Good night, sweetheart.
09:41Good night.
09:44Let's see your big sister now.
09:46Good night.
09:46I'll be up to check you.
09:48Thank you, Tammy.
09:5040,000 people?
09:51So I'm not very good with numbers.
09:53So what?
09:54I like the touch with the bad hand.
09:55That was smooth.
09:57Oh, thank God.
09:59See what you're missing?
10:00Noise.
10:01Dirty dishes.
10:02Kids who don't think they need sleep.
10:04I love it.
10:05You don't have a family.
10:06You don't leave anything behind when you die.
10:08That's what Al always says.
10:11So there a story about why you're not marrying you?
10:14Aren't you gonna ask me if I liked your sauce or not?
10:16Hey, I saw what you're dinner with.
10:18No sense asking a question.
10:19I already know the answer.
10:20I told you she was a pistol.
10:22I just wanna know what the deal is with you and the girls.
10:25Well, do you like boys, huh, Vinny?
10:27Right, yeah.
10:28Come on.
10:28Whoa, whoa, whoa.
10:29Yeah, like boys.
10:30I'm just asking, just asking.
10:32Now what's her name?
10:34Come on, Vinny.
10:35What's her name?
10:36Hey, turn that down!
10:37What is it with you kids?
10:38How many times your father's coming upstairs?
10:41Come on!
10:42Lights out!
10:43Go!
11:01Vincent Terranova?
11:02Yeah.
11:03Why don't you just use the front door?
11:05People don't open the front door for guys like me.
11:07Here.
11:27What?
11:50Hey, the contract gives the band a release option in the event of a management change.
11:55There's no management change.
11:56I'm right here.
11:57Yeah, you are.
11:59But with Isaac gone.
12:01Look, my boys just want to sign with a label that's got a little more clout.
12:06The boys, when they couldn't get a gig to sing Happy Birthday, Isaac and I stuck right
12:09by them.
12:10Hey, I'm a loyalist to a point.
12:13But the band's interests are what I have to think about.
12:19I'm sorry.
12:22It's all right.
12:24No hurt feelings?
12:26Yeah.
12:26Haven't got many of them left.
12:36We can probably tie Lenny's band to the option clause.
12:41I don't want anybody working with me against their will.
12:48Hope I'm not interrupting anything here.
12:51Vinnie, hi.
12:52This is Roger.
12:53Mr. Terranova.
12:54I'm Roger Totlin, Mrs. Twine's lawyer.
12:56Yeah?
12:57You the one I should thank for this?
12:58What is that?
12:59It's a restraining order.
13:00A restraining order?
13:02Yeah.
13:02Mr. Totlin here sent me an official warning to stay away from this company.
13:08And you.
13:09Roger, how could you do something like that without asking me?
13:12You are my lawyer, not my guardian.
13:13It has nothing to do with Mr. Terranova personally.
13:16It's just a legal device to protect you.
13:19You need protection from me?
13:20No, I didn't know anything about this.
13:22I mean, Roger doesn't know anything about the arrangement that you had with Isaac and me.
13:25Isaac was a flamboyant character with exotic taste.
13:28You're a widow trying to keep your company afloat.
13:30You can't afford to freelance the way he did.
13:32I would do nothing to jeopardize Chocola.
13:43But your criminal record does.
13:46This could lead to government scrutiny, something Chocola doesn't need.
13:50Maybe you should see his record.
13:52I've seen it.
13:54Well, when you sold dead dog records to us, I needed to know what we were getting into.
13:58You see that?
13:59I've got nothing to hide.
14:03As your lawyer, I have to tell you that associations of this kind carry the taint of illegitimacy.
14:08I'm sure you've had ample experience with blind justice and unpleasant publicity.
14:14Your curriculum vitae?
14:15Hey, man, I don't need any nickel and dime career analysis from you.
14:21You're a loyal friend of Amber's.
14:24So I'm sure you'll have no problem signing this.
14:27It simply absolves Mrs. Twine of responsibility for any illegal activity you may have been involved in during your tenure
14:33here.
14:38Do you want me to sign this?
14:41He's covering my butt.
14:46We'll have my lawyer look at it.
14:57I don't like this guy.
14:59He's a Park Avenue lawyer.
15:01Nobody likes him.
15:02He's got an attitude.
15:03Not an indictable offense, my friend.
15:05Yeah, well, he's using Amber.
15:07Oh, you don't know that.
15:08I can feel it.
15:09A little territorial, aren't we, Vinnie?
15:13Now what's that supposed to mean?
15:15Look, this guy Totland may just be trying to make a strong-willed woman believe that he can take better
15:22care of her than she can herself.
15:25You sure you're not trying to prove the same thing?
15:27Amber and I have a professional relationship.
15:31Yeah, so did Napoleon and Josephine.
15:33Hey, what are you, Dr. Ruth?
15:35Why don't you give it a rest?
15:42So, when did the show close?
15:43It didn't.
15:44I just couldn't take it anymore.
15:46So two years of dinner theater must have seemed like an eternity.
15:50I told my agent if I had to sing Sunrise, Sunset one more time while the audience was sawing away
15:56at their prime rib, my next performance was going to be suicide.
16:02So, here I am, reading for every part in town.
16:07I'm glad you're home, Zoe.
16:10But, uh, you don't really need to stay here, do you?
16:14I told you, my sublet isn't up for another week.
16:18The guy won't vacate any sooner.
16:21You're gonna throw me out?
16:23No, I'm not gonna throw you out. It just seems a little funny. I mean, you have other girlfriends in
16:27town.
16:27I think you want to babysit me.
16:30They're all actresses.
16:32And they're either after the same part I'm after or they're agonizing over their last failed affair or their next
16:38gray hair.
16:40I'm not looking for a competitor.
16:44I'm looking for a babysitter.
16:48All right.
16:50Well, then you brush your teeth and you study your lines or no TV.
16:54Okay.
16:55Okay.
16:59All right.
17:01So I'm gonna be back in a few hours and then we can schmooze about everything.
17:04I look okay?
17:05You look great.
17:07This guy's special?
17:09Strictly business.
17:12Oh.
17:29May I help you, sir?
17:31Uh, yeah.
17:34I'm gonna leave these for Mrs. Twine.
17:35Okay?
17:40Evening, Mrs. Twine.
17:41Evening, Charles.
17:44Hi.
17:47Hi.
17:47Hi.
17:49Um, I was just in a neighborhood and, um, I wanted to give you these.
17:57Oh, give me.
18:01You're welcome.
18:03Peace offering?
18:05I just didn't want you to think I was mad at you.
18:08Okay.
18:11You wanna get a cup of coffee?
18:13Damn, I've got an appointment.
18:17Well, let me drive you.
18:18No, that's okay.
18:19I can take a cab.
18:20What do you wanna do?
18:20Hurt my feelings twice in the same day?
18:37You know, that wasn't a very nice thing you did.
18:39Well, I didn't do anything.
18:41Well, somebody did.
18:42Finney, look, I don't know how many times I have to tell you this.
18:45Roger was only doing what he thought was in my best interest.
18:47I don't know how I can make it any clearer than that.
18:51Okay.
18:53Apology accepted.
18:56What apology?
19:03Good night.
19:05Good night.
19:06Good night.
19:07Good night.
19:17Come on, you.
19:42Good night.
19:43All right, all right, I'm going.
19:59You could have financial security for the rest of your life.
20:02Why don't you let me find you a buyer for chocolate?
20:07Now, why would I want you to find me a buyer for Shackala, Roger?
20:10So you won't have to wage any more wars.
20:13All I want to do is run Shackala.
20:15It's the only thing that I can reach out and touch to remind me that Isaac and I made our
20:18dream happen.
20:20Maybe you should pursue new dreams.
20:23Just think about what I said, would you?
20:27I'm tired of thinking.
20:29Sometimes I feel like I just want to hitch a ride on a magic carpet.
20:32See, that's exactly what I'm talking about.
20:34You've always been the anchor at Shackala and I know what it's taken out of you.
20:40But I think you're more beautiful than ever.
20:43Uh-huh.
20:44You said that before and never followed up on it.
20:48That was 12 years ago.
20:50I was young and selfish.
20:53Marriage wasn't an option.
20:55Isaac always said that that meant the best man had won.
20:59Ouch.
21:00Ooh.
21:03We remained friends, though.
21:04I always thought that made you real special.
21:06I want to be a lot more special, Amber.
21:08Wow.
21:10Wanting to and being able to are two completely different things.
21:17I understand that now.
21:33What's the occasion?
21:35Well, it's no occasion, really.
21:38I need a card that makes a point, you know?
21:42Well, what's the point you want to make?
21:44You see, I know this woman.
21:47And she's too smart for her own good.
21:49She's got a head like a rock.
21:50I'm trying to help her out with something, and she won't listen to anything I say.
21:53Well, what you want is a book.
21:55That way, if she won't read it, you can hit her on the head with it.
21:58It's a problem in relationships.
22:01Yeah.
22:05Um...
22:06And what about this one here?
22:08Yeah, that one.
22:11Been a bestseller for months, but I'll be damned if I know why.
22:14It's utter claptrap.
22:18That's all right.
22:19All she's got to do is read the title.
22:29That gentleman from earlier tonight stopped by with a couple of things for you.
22:32They're right here.
22:36He didn't leave a note or anything.
22:39He didn't have to.
22:46Would you have some of this?
22:48You're making me feel guilty here.
22:51Uh-uh.
22:52I've got two auditions today.
22:55How do you stand it after all these years?
22:57What?
22:59The constant preparation, the constant rejection.
23:01I don't get it.
23:03I view it positively.
23:05Professional rejection keeps me so depressed.
23:08I don't think about all the other things I'm missing.
23:11What, like love marriage and the baby carriage?
23:14Mm-hmm.
23:15Yeah.
23:16Uh-huh, yeah.
23:19I never thought I'd hear you say that.
23:23So, are there any possibilities?
23:25One.
23:29He's what I would call deeply trivial.
23:33Why do they always disappoint you?
23:34Well, your track record when it comes to men hasn't been exactly brilliant over the years.
23:39Slim pickings.
23:41You'll find out.
23:42I'm not looking.
23:44You've got needs just like me.
23:46And I'm not talking about hormonal urges.
23:50I'm talking that dark, forbidding, neurotic need of women
23:55that strikes terror in the hearts of men everywhere.
23:57The C word.
24:00Commitment.
24:01You are so crazy.
24:03I figure if they can't stand the heat, they should get out of the kitchen.
24:06Sometimes you are so damn tough, you know that?
24:09You are so sure of yourself.
24:11God, before Isaac came along, I was convinced you'd make somebody a better husband than a wife.
24:17I just feel so lost sometimes. I never felt like that before.
24:21I feel that way every day.
24:23Why don't I find that comforting?
24:25So, the one who brings flowers to the business dinner, would I like him?
24:34Gee, I don't know.
24:36Good men should be recycled, you know.
24:41Roger Totland comes from an immigrant family.
24:44They landed at Plymouth Rock.
24:45Since then, they've just been sitting around amassing wealth.
24:48Naturally, Roger joined his dad's firm, which is Squeaky Clean.
24:51It's blue blood money, blue chip clients.
24:53Federated Motors, Unidec, Digitel Electronics, et cetera.
24:56Yeah, I get the picture, Frank.
24:58Now listen, if you've got so much energy, we'll give you an investigation.
25:01You can burn some of it off.
25:04I'm tired of being a voyeur in other people's lives.
25:06You can't just give up one life and go back to your old one like that.
25:09Maybe it's time you came in out of the cold and stopped going undercover.
25:14Oh, no, that's not it.
25:20Is there something else going on here?
25:22Why does everybody keep implying that I'm some kind of a lovesick puppy?
25:26Amber's my friend. I'm just trying to help her.
25:29I didn't say anything about Amber Twine.
25:33I guess I did.
25:35Well, I wouldn't worry about it.
25:38In my limited experience, when a woman doesn't want you to be confused anymore,
25:43she unconfuses you very fast.
25:45I think the smart ones let you think you've done it yourself.
25:49Yeah?
25:49Well, what about the smart lawyers, Frank?
25:52Because I know this Totland is bad news.
25:55But he has to be, doesn't he, Vince?
25:58He's the competition.
26:03I'm gonna get you, Roger.
26:14Yes!
26:17Well, it's not the first time.
26:19How many games on a row is that, anyway?
26:21Fifteen. You wanna go again?
26:23Oh.
26:23Or would you rather see if we can, uh, make some new friends?
26:27And rather get an update on Amber Twine.
26:30Not necessary.
26:31The Unidoc project is in the bag.
26:33All I need her to do is sign on the dotted line.
26:36Yeah, well, I thought she was supposed to be the sentimental type.
26:39You know, digging her heels at the first mention of redevelopment.
26:43Women are easy.
26:45I guess blondie out here won't be much of a challenge.
26:54I wanna thank you for reasoning out the situation.
26:58Ah, just one more and we'll be finished.
27:04This'll be a major relief for Amber.
27:06Yeah, I bet.
27:07She can discuss it over one of those cozy little cantaloupe dinners of yours.
27:11You were spying on me.
27:15Boy, you got some big brass, Vinnie.
27:17Hey, look, if you wanna be a puppet for this guy, that's fine with me.
27:20Hey, I make my own decisions.
27:21If I wanna sell Shacklin and get out of the business, that's my concern, not yours.
27:24You understand what I'm saying to you? I do what I want.
27:27You're selling the company?
27:29Hey, yeah, that's right, Vinnie. Read my lips.
27:30I'm selling the company, I'm getting out of the business. I'm tired of the wars.
27:33Well, do you have to her or her money?
27:36When did you find this guy, yuppies or us?
27:38Oh, that's it. Get out of here.
27:39She is getting a premium price for the business.
27:42Enough to cover her inheritance tax and leave a very comfortable sum to enjoy.
27:46Which makes me wonder if you might not be the one trying to ride her financial coattails.
27:51I'm not the one with the overhead.
27:54No, why don't you punch him in the nose? It'd be a typical solution for you, wouldn't it?
27:56What, are you trusting this guy with your cranium or your crotch?
28:03I can't wait.
28:16Why?
28:20No.
28:20Oh, God, no.
28:22No, no, no, no.
28:23No, no.
28:23No, no, no.
28:26No, no, no, no.
28:31That it is what she deserves the cycle of subservience continues therefore because it fulfills the training she received from
28:39her mother. Oh
28:40please
28:42Sounds like this dr. Kirk at his id stepped on a few too many times by his mother. Ah
28:47What does that say about your friend Vinnie? He gave you this mistobabble. I
28:54Have three analysts that could make a full-time project out of him. You know doll. This is kind of
28:58required reading for me right now
29:02Sorry
29:07I never considered my life in terms of gross market value
29:12What I? I mean shackle was never based on on accumulating money. I
29:18Mean even when times were bad we lived well. I
29:21Never stopped to think about what it was worth
29:24So what are you worth?
29:26net
29:27Net after inheritance taxes and commissions and attorneys fees capital gains
29:39Zoe
29:4211 million dollars
29:45Cash
29:53Don't be too impressed by that money
30:00It's a terrible trap. Oh really? Well, this is a trap I could learn to live with. Yeah, you can
30:06learn to live alone with it
30:08Being completely self-sufficient means you never have to commit to anybody or anything
30:16It gets you thinking that non commitment is the safest investment
30:22But it brings you zero return
30:25Doing that already
30:28I'm sitting here compartmentalizing my life
30:34I'm
30:35I'm creating a portfolio of relationships
30:38To fit with my new financial status
30:41Right
30:43Let's just see what you've got here
30:45You've got the Totlin file and you've got the Terra Nova file
30:49Now with Totlin
30:50You've got the Dunhill suit and the velvet tongue
30:54Trained in New Haven to understand matters of money only too well
30:59And in the Terra Nova file
31:02You've got a foul-mouthed grease monkey
31:05Who thinks hallmark is the answer to every crisis of emotion
31:08And when that doesn't work
31:10He makes obscene remarks about your personal parts
31:13He was angry though. I don't even think he knew what he was saying
31:16First you slapped the guy and now you're making excuses for him?
31:23Seems to me he's your emotional choice
31:27When I move back to my place, who's going to help you think about these things?
31:36Roger's just protecting me
31:42Roger
31:57Let's see what's on your curriculum vitae
32:02Yell
32:05Yeah, this pal
32:09Crew skull and bones
32:13Sounds like a south side home invader
32:19Full partner at age 30
32:21Oh, that's very impressive
32:24Full of crap for a lifetime
32:26Blue chip clients
32:28Federated motors
32:31Unidac
32:31Digital electronics
32:35Unidac
32:41Unidac
32:43Unidac
32:44I've been over it all
32:45The agreement's in order
32:47Now my secretary marked the appropriate places for you to sign
32:50Great
32:53Oh, excuse me
32:55Hello?
32:55Mr. Terranova's on the line
32:57All right, put him through
33:00Hi, I'm right in the middle of a meeting
33:02I'm real sorry about what happened yesterday
33:04Me too
33:05And there's no excuse for saying what I did to you
33:08I'm just glad you don't weigh 200 pounds
33:11So am I
33:12I'm telling you, you got one hell of a right
33:15I got this big wealth on my face
33:18Look, can we talk about this later?
33:20I'm really right in the middle of all this
33:21Yeah, all right, sure
33:24Listen, um
33:26Did you know that Unidac is buying up the buildings around your block?
33:29Yeah, I've seen some signs
33:31Well, people are losing their livelihoods
33:33Yeah, and your point is what?
33:35Your friend's law firm represents Unidac
33:40Amber? Amber?
33:41Thank you
33:57Unidac
34:01Get out, Roger
34:02Amber, please
34:04Get out
34:05You're not being rational
34:07I'm not being rational?
34:10Mr. Schmeling
34:12After executing this purchase
34:13Does your firm intend to resell the company to Unidac?
34:18Why would we do that?
34:20Gee, I don't know
34:23Then I guess nobody has any objections
34:25To an addendum to this agreement
34:27Giving me the right of first refusal to buy back Shackler
34:30Should you want to sell at any time over the next ten years
34:34Amber, we've got a deal on the table, you accept it
34:36Now, we can't go back and renegotiate
34:38You're throwing away millions
34:40No, no, I'm not
34:42I still have my company
34:44What I am throwing away, Roger, is your commission and you
34:48Now, get out
34:49Amber, listen, just take a second
34:51Take a walk
34:53Forget it, Roger
34:55I don't think you handled this woman too well
35:03Mr. Schmeling, please, please, we can make this work
35:12Is it coming through okay?
35:14Hey, man
35:15Excuse me, I'm looking for Vinnie Terranova
35:19Hey, Vin, you better get out here
35:25How you doing?
35:27I'm still in business
35:28You were right about Roger
35:31I know
35:32Oh, well, there's a gracious acceptance speech
35:34Here's your book back
35:37Did you read it?
35:38I didn't read it, I couldn't get past the cover
35:40What are you so mad about?
35:42I'm not mad
35:43Yes, you are
35:43No, I'm not
35:44Yes, you are, you're mad and you're stubborn
35:45I practically begged you not to buy into that guy's act
35:48Where he buys you a little candlelight dinner and some champagne
35:51And all of a sudden you can't think straight anymore
35:52Oh, I can think just fine
35:54Yeah, you could have fooled me
35:55That's a short trip
35:57Help me out here, will you?
35:58You just stay out of this, okay, please?
36:00What am I supposed to do, gush gratitude?
36:02Who, you? No, I doubt it
36:03I should have mailed you this stupid book
36:05Then why didn't you?
36:07I don't know, you missed your insight
36:08Why don't you tell me?
36:09Because you wanted to see me, that's why
36:10Fine, well, I've seen you, so I'm leaving
36:12Oh, good, good, I'm thrilled
36:13Good, I'm ecstatic
36:14Okay, fine, good
36:15Well, since you two are so happy, why don't you come over tonight?
36:18My wife's making man a goat, special theater house
36:20You want me to go with her?
36:21What do you, why do you mind?
36:22I'd rather stay here any razor blades
36:23Well, that might improve your personality
36:25Hey, I thought you were leaving
36:27I am, I'm out of here
36:28Good
36:28Hey, where you going?
36:31You're not gonna let a little joust like this ruin everything
36:40All the kids, even the girls, it's like they were born with ants in their pants
36:46Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
36:48And this guy here, you should see how he gets around
36:50God, I swear he's part monkey
36:52Climbing trees, climbing fences, climbing ladders
36:55I keep telling Big Al here
36:57We're gonna have to install safety nets under everything
37:00There's more than a foot off the ground
37:01Looks like he's gonna be an athlete, huh?
37:03Yeah, well, you know, that's what Al was
37:05Best looking guy I ever saw on a pair of shoulder pads
37:08Get out of him
37:09Oh, boy, you should've seen him when he was 17 years old
37:12Hey, I haven't heard any complaints lately
37:14Let's go get ice cream
37:15Come on, Dad, you know you want some
37:18You don't need any ice cream, your mother make cannolis
37:21Right
37:21Come on, what kind of paisan are you anyway?
37:23I'll take her
37:23She just wants to see Bobby B. Fusquelli at the candy store
37:27Bobby B. Fusquelli?
37:28Bobby B. Fusquelli?
37:29Bobby's your little lamb chop
37:31I heard you talking about him with Cynthia and Becky
37:33Dad!
37:36Hey, hey, hey, come on
37:37Time out!
37:38Time out!
37:39Excuse me, will you?
37:40You all right, Vinnie?
37:41Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm fine
37:42I'll be back in a minute
38:01Want a drink?
38:03No thanks
38:05A little bicarb, maybe
38:08Or you just want me to hold your hand?
38:15What kind of a crack is that?
38:17No, no crack
38:19It's just when I see a friend of mine get the yips
38:21I want to help him out
38:22Tell him he's gonna be all right
38:25Which in your case is no fault
38:27Just exactly what is my case?
38:29Come on, come on
38:31I really gotta tell you
38:33Man, you are crazy about that woman
38:35Even more than I thought when I was watching you two fight
38:39You think every word that comes out of her mouth is the smartest thing you ever heard?
38:43You are out of your mind
38:44Oh, not me, pal
38:46I'm on the outside looking in
38:49Which is a better view than what you got
38:51But one thing, I can tell you why you're in here moping around
38:54Connie's just too good of a cook, that's all
38:56I should've stopped after the second of helping
38:59You ain't stuffed
39:00You're just scared
39:02See, you see yourself as me five years down the line
39:06Wife, kids, mortgage, dirty dishes
39:09And you want it
39:11You want it bad
39:13Only you're just a little scared, that's all
39:15Let me explain something to you
39:18I've got no wife
39:20And I've got no prospects
39:22I think this Ann will do just fine
39:29Yeah, alright, yeah, she would
39:31Alright, you happy? Is that what you wanted to hear?
39:33Why don't you go after her?
39:35Full court press, paly
39:36Because we're just friends, that's why
39:40You mean you? You're not?
39:43No, we're not
39:47A wish
39:49Wishing ain't gonna make it happen, pal
40:08That won't be necessary
40:17You're not
40:18No, we're not
40:29A wish
40:30But she's a good little girl
40:35Who knew of her
40:36She was a boy
40:36I don't think she'd be the same
40:36But she's my son
40:36She's a good boy
40:39And her son
40:39So, first of all
40:40She's a good boy
40:40She's a son
40:40We're still inlyn
40:41But she's a good boy
40:46If she rides on town
40:46She be the same
40:57I love you.
41:15Oh, who's that?
41:17Micah, it's my Uncle Nick.
41:22He was killed in World War II.
41:27Okay, now that's your father.
41:29Yeah?
41:30Is that you?
41:31No, no.
41:32That's my brother, Pete.
41:35I really miss them.
41:40Did you know my mother married a gangster?
41:43That's all right, though.
41:44It's a story with a happy ending.
41:45My mother fell in love with this guy that was a girlhood sweetheart.
41:52Rudy Iupo and my mother were in love when they were teenagers.
41:56And when he turned to a life of crime, my mother wouldn't have anything more to do with him.
42:02So more than 50 years later, they meet at this neighborhood Christmas dance and the romance
42:08rekindled.
42:09Now, Rudy gave up his life of crime, so my mother agreed to marry him.
42:13Well, I tried to stop it, but when I saw them together, I realized I had something very
42:20special.
42:23After my brother died, I thought I'd never see my mother happy again.
42:29And when she's around Rudy, you should see her.
42:33It's like she's renewed, you know?
42:35She's full of life.
42:36She's like a different person.
42:38And the very night that he popped a question, he got arrested for being in the country illegally.
42:46And my mother had to choose between marriage or staying in the country.
42:51So now, on the night of the wedding, Rudy reconciled with his brother who he hadn't spoken
42:55with in over 40 years.
42:57So the old guys switched places, and the immigration agents deported his brother Tito,
43:05who was using his mother's maiden name because of the bad blood between the brothers.
43:10So when he and my mother get back, they're going to come back as Mr. and Mrs. Tito Armini
43:14and live in Tito's old house.
43:16And no one will ever know?
43:18Well, some of the people in the neighborhood will know, but as long as Rudy keeps his nose
43:23clean, I don't think the authorities will bother with a retired barber.
43:28Oh, they'll live happily ever after.
43:31Well, knock on wood.
43:34You know what I'm going to do?
43:35What?
43:36I think I'm going to surprise my mother and give her a call.
43:39That's a great idea.
43:40Yeah, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
43:56Well, I'll tip the boy.
44:19Why don't you answer?
44:21There's nobody I want to talk to.
44:24Pronto.
44:24Ma?
44:25Vincenzo, what's wrong?
44:27Nothing's wrong, Mom.
44:28We're just calling to say hello.
44:29Oh, everything's all right.
44:31Oh, Vincenzo, I'm happy you called.
44:33It's a wonderful surprise.
44:35We just got here this morning.
44:37Ah, the lake country is breathtaking.
44:39Oh, yeah?
44:40How is Florence?
44:41It's the most wonderful city on earth.
44:43And we saw every inch of it.
44:45Rudy says Firenze is the cauldron of modern civilization.
44:50Why are you calling?
44:52I was just, uh, talking with someone about you and just wanted to call.
44:58Who is this someone?
44:59She's a friend of mine.
45:02You know, we're just sitting around looking at all the old pictures.
45:05And then Dad and Pete and your wedding.
45:09Ma?
45:09You there?
45:10Oh, yes.
45:11I'm here.
45:13Oh, so, um, let's see.
45:15Como's your next stop, isn't it?
45:18Isn't that where your stop is next?
45:19Lake Como?
45:19Uh, yes, yes.
45:20I'll talk to you soon.
45:21Ciao.
45:25Say hello.
45:27Get up.
45:28Get up.
45:28Get up.
45:29We're packing.
45:30We have to call the airport.
45:31We're going home.
45:33What are you talking about?
45:35It's Vincenzo.
45:36He's found a girl.
45:37This is the one.
45:39He said this?
45:40Well, not in so many words, but a mother knows.
45:45Oh, this is wonderful.
45:47My Vinnie has a girl.
45:49Come on.
45:49Come on.
45:50Get up.
45:50We've got to pack.
46:21We've got to pack.
46:28We've got to pack.
46:40We've got to pack.
