Like you'd say to somebody:
|
"You'll like this guy.
|
He's all right.
|
He's a goodfella, he's one of us."
|
You understand?
|
We were goodfellas.
|
Wiseguys.
|
But Jimmy and I could never be made because we had Irish blood.
|
It didn't matter my mother was Sicilian.
|
To become a member of a crew, you've got to be 100% Italian so they can trace your relatives back to the old country.
|
It's the highest honor they can give you.
|
It means you belong to a family and a crew.
|
It means nobody can fuck around with you.
|
It also means you could fuck around with anybody just as long as they aren't also a member.
|
It's like a license to steal.
|
A license to do anything.
|
How many years ago since you were made?
|
- I'm an old-timer. 30 years ago.
|
- Thirty years?
|
Brings back a lot of memories.
|
Pike's Peak was a pimple then, wasn't it?
|
As far as Jimmy was concerned, with Tommy being made it was like we were all being made.
|
We would now have one of our own as a member.
|
- Who's this?
|
- This is Vinnie.
|
Vinnie.
|
What happened?
|
Did we get straightened out?
|
No, we had a problem.
|
We tried to do everything we could.
|
What do you mean?
|
You know what I mean.
|
He's gone, and we couldn't do nothing about it.
|
- That's it.
|
- What do you mean?
|
He's gone.
|
That's it.
|
I knew it!
|
I can't fucking believe it.
|
- What happened?
|
- They fucking whacked him.
|
Fuck.
|
Are you all right?
|
It was revenge for Billy Batts and a lot of other things.
|
And that's that.
|
There was nothing we could do about it.
|
Batts was a made man and Tommy wasn't.
|
We had to sit still and take it.
|
It was among the Italians.
|
It was real greaseball shit.
|
They even shot Tommy in the face so his mother couldn't give him an open coffin at the funeral.
|
I was gonna be busy all day.
|
I had to drop off some guns at Jimmy's to match some silencers he had.
|
I had to pick up my brother at the hospital and drive him home.
|
I had to pick up some new Pittsburgh stuff for Lois to fly down to some customers I had near Atlanta.
|
Right away, I knew he didn't want them, and I'd be stuck for the money.
|
I only bought them because he wanted them, and now he didn't.
|
What good are these?
|
None of them fit.
|
What's the matter with you?
|
I'm not paying for it.
|
I didn't say a thing.
|
Jimmy was so pissed off, he didn't even say goodbye.
|
Stop the drugs.
|
They're making your mind into mush!
|
- You hear me?
|
- I'll take them back.
|
I knew my Pittsburgh guys always wanted guns.
|
Since I would see them in the afternoon to pick up a delivery
|
I was pretty sure I'd get my money back.
|
Oh, my God.
|
When I finally got to the hospital, Michael's doctor wanted to put me in bed.
|
Jesus Christ, what happened to you?
|
I almost got into an accident on the way here.
|
And I told him I was partying all night.
|
- I'm fine.
|
- Come on.
|
Get over here.
|
- Doc, I'm fine.
|
- Let me check you out.
|
Come on.
|
He took mercy on me, gave me 10 milligrams of Valium and sent me home.
|
My plan was to drop off my brother at the house and pick up Karen.
|
There it is.
|
You see that helicopter right there?
|
Right in front of us, there.
|
I think it's been following me all morning.
|
- Get the fuck out.
|
What are you, nuts?
|
- I'm telling you.
|
I don't know what's going on.
|
It's the third time I've seen it.
|
At the hospital I saw it.
|
I had to make some stops.
|
I've seen it every time.
|
I've been all over town and I've seen it all day.
|
I was cooking dinner that night.
|
I had to start braising the beef and veal shanks for the tomato sauce.
|
It was Michael's favorite.
|
I was making ziti with meat gravy and I'm planning to roast some peppers over the flames put on some string beans with olive oil.
