110. - Mr. Herman Rabkin.
- Hesh.Copy !req
111. I don't know him personally,
but I know his history.Copy !req
112. In the late '50s and '60s,
he owned F-Note Records.Copy !req
113. Yeah, Hesh was in the music business.Copy !req
114. Little situation here.Copy !req
115. My mother's deceased distant cousin,
Little Jimmy Willis, '50s legend.Copy !req
116. Two seminal hit records
was his legacy.Copy !req

118. - "Such a Fool."
- Oh, I love that!Copy !req
119. They play it all the time
on oldies radio.Copy !req
120. Old Herman?Copy !req
121. He's just another white motherfucker
stealing royalties...Copy !req
122. from the black man
that made him the money.Copy !req
123. Jimmy's mother, who I'm content to
call my aunt, is owed that money.Copy !req
124. Hesh is the sweetest guy. But I know
his opinion on giving back Israel.Copy !req
125. I can only imagine what
he'll say about this shit.Copy !req
126. Feel free to enjoy the food
and any other enjoyments.Copy !req
127. Champagne, sir. Ma'am?Copy !req
128. That guy's a gangsta?
I'm a gangsta.Copy !req
129. I'm an OG, original gangsta.
Not him, fucking lawn jockey.Copy !req

134. They don't take no shit.Copy !req
135. Soprano crew, it's always secret this,
omertà that. Gets on my nerves.Copy !req
136. Junior with his moldy sweaters,
and he's a fucking boss.Copy !req
137. You were just feeling
so good about yourself.Copy !req
138. Our thing once ruled the music
business, did you know?Copy !req
139. - No.
- We bankrolled acts, blacks, everybody.Copy !req
140. Paid the DJs or busted heads
to get them played on the air.Copy !req
141. There were great Italian singers.Copy !req
142. Fucking A. Frankie Valli, Dion,
The Rascals, the whole Philly thing.Copy !req
143. My dad used to talk about those guys.Copy !req

150. They invited us to a barbecue.Copy !req
151. All right. Didn't think so.Copy !req
152. Still with the brochures?Copy !req
153. You believe how much it costs
for a college education?Copy !req
154. We got enough.Copy !req
155. I know we got enough,
but how much is enough?Copy !req
156. God forbid, what if
something should happen?Copy !req
157. Call up old man Coletti, tell him not
to put too much makeup on my face.Copy !req
158. Don't joke around about this, Tony.Copy !req
159. You'll be taken care of.Copy !req
160. You always tell me that,
"I'll be taken care of." By who?Copy !req
161. What is with the look?
Did you just make a score?Copy !req
162. No. I wish.Copy !req
163. You know, Tony, it's a multiple-
choice thing with you.Copy !req
164. Because I can't tell if you're
old-fashioned, you're paranoid...Copy !req
165. or just a fucking asshole.Copy !req
166. So what do I tell the Wagners?Copy !req
167. Do you want to go?Copy !req
168. Sure.Copy !req
169. Even Cusamano asked me to play
a little golf with him at his club.Copy !req
170. - Sorry.
- All right, all right.Copy !req
171. Prick. New maître d',
he's really on the rag tonight.Copy !req
172. I'll talk to him.Copy !req
173. - Remember Richie Santini?
- Yeah, you used to fuck him.Copy !req
174. That really sums it up. I knew him
since we were 3, he lived next door.Copy !req
175. Yeah, we had our little phase.Copy !req
176. - What about him?
- You've heard his band?Copy !req
177. Defiler? I'm not into
that headbanging shit.Copy !req
178. You talked about the good old days:
Italians running the music business.Copy !req
179. Richie's this musician who you know.
They're not a hair band anymore.Copy !req
180. And they're good!Copy !req
181. You said yourself how much money
there was in this thing.Copy !req
182. You mean like, Richie Santini?Copy !req
183. Would Massive Genius be interested?Copy !req
184. It's a whole different thing. Black.Copy !req
185. But he's got Massive G Productions.
Shit, they make movies even!Copy !req
186. Massive does owe me a favor.
I'm arranging a sit-down with Hesh.Copy !req
187. I was thinking about— Okay, okay,
I know this sounds kind of funny.Copy !req
188. Music management.Copy !req
189. I have met people, important people...Copy !req
190. learned people skills, how to deal
with big egos, solve problems.Copy !req
191. And with my love of
all kinds of music...Copy !req
192. Maybe Alec Baldwin would
come to our house.Copy !req
193. It's an old demo.Copy !req
194. No, you know what?Copy !req
195. Fuck it.Copy !req
196. Let's set you up.Copy !req
197. - What?
- I got money.Copy !req
198. With how much you listen to
the radio, you'd be good.Copy !req
199. I can't believe it.Copy !req
200. But I get to pick what you wear.Copy !req
201. Dress you up. I like that.Copy !req
202. This place has the flavor.Copy !req
203. That gelding, name is Sydney.Copy !req
204. You never wrote a song about him?Copy !req
205. When you and Little Jimmy were
writing all his hits...Copy !req
206. did you write the music
and him the lyrics or vice versa?Copy !req
207. We had our own process.Copy !req
208. So that "Ooh, wacka-doo,
wacka-dooly do, I'm so blue..."Copy !req
209. That spring from your experience
or the little brother's?Copy !req
210. One could write a song about a horse.Copy !req
211. But to be a hit with your audience...Copy !req
212. you'd have a cop on him, be ripped
up the ass with a Mac 10, no?Copy !req
213. So you bought horses
with your royalties.Copy !req
214. What about Little Jimmy's royalties?Copy !req
215. He bought horse.Copy !req
216. Music business back then, we broke
all the rules as we went along.Copy !req
217. You mean raping and pillaging.Copy !req
218. Things haven't changed much, huh?Copy !req
219. Were we hard-nosed? Yeah.
But we gave a lot of kids their start.Copy !req
220. A lot of Negro youth.
Took them out of the ghetto.Copy !req
221. Put them on the stage.Copy !req
222. Ordinarily I'd be more than happy
to stroll down Memory Lane with you...Copy !req
223. but I want reparations.Copy !req
224. Why don't we call this what it is?
A shakedown.Copy !req
225. Your father was a silent partner
in F-Note Records.Copy !req
226. Made sure that the records
got airplay, right?Copy !req
227. That money bought my house
at the Jersey Shore.Copy !req
228. What are you gonna do?
I'm guided by you.Copy !req
229. He's gotta do the right thing,
that's what.Copy !req
230. You're way out of line, kid. Let's
get some cold water on your head.Copy !req
231. Thank you, Jen.
Let's get right to the point, huh?Copy !req
232. What's in this for you?Copy !req
233. If you read Chuck D's book...Copy !req
234. he advises that
reparations be made...Copy !req
235. by the Jewish studio moguls
in Hollywood.Copy !req
236. For the way black folks
were portrayed on film.Copy !req
237. It's germane
to this argument in that...Copy !req
238. the grievances in the music
business are far worse.Copy !req
239. You're talking to
the wrong white man, my friend.Copy !req
240. My people were the white man's nigger
when yours were still chasing zebras.Copy !req
241. As far as Louis B. Mayer is concerned,
what are you, nuts?Copy !req
242. My lawyers have done research.Copy !req
243. I think that the final figure
is somewhere around $400,000.Copy !req
244. Now, a cashier's check made
to a Mrs. Idella Willis...Copy !req
245. will set it straight.Copy !req
246. Or what?Copy !req
247. What was it that she called him?Copy !req
248. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
249. "That nice man," I think she said.Copy !req
250. So how's your neighbor?
The one with no neck?Copy !req
251. The Sopranos?Copy !req
252. There's a new car in the driveway
every other week. Besides that—Copy !req
253. He gave me a gift of
some excellent Cuban cigars.Copy !req
254. And you accepted them.Copy !req
255. See? Eroding the neighborhood values.Copy !req
256. He was thanking me for the physician,
which he is very happy with.Copy !req
257. Really?Copy !req
258. What does that do to property values?
Having a gangster living next door?Copy !req
259. Are you kidding?Copy !req
260. Safest block in the neighb.
Being a gangster, what's that mean?Copy !req
261. The shit I see in the boardroom, I
don't know if I'd make a distinction.Copy !req
262. Oh, will you, please?
It's not the same.Copy !req
263. Bugging, bribes? I don't know.Copy !req
264. I think the only thing separating
American business from the Mobs...Copy !req
265. is whacking somebody.Copy !req
266. - Listen to you!
- What?Copy !req
267. Whacking!Copy !req
268. He hangs around with Tony Soprano and
it's "fucking this, fucking that."Copy !req
269. We were there for that fundraiser.
I didn't see any guns anywhere.Copy !req
270. But that bar with
the goombah Murano glass.Copy !req
271. I like Murano glass.Copy !req
272. Those Montecristos.Copy !req
273. What do you say? After dinner?Copy !req
274. It ain't your type
of music, but...Copy !req
275. I like any kind of music
that turns shit green.Copy !req
276. He's been through a lot.
It's deepened his writing.Copy !req
277. As a metal band
they were great, but this...Copy !req
278. as far as I am concerned,
blows away Matchbox 20.Copy !req
279. What do they call themselves?Copy !req
280. Used to be Defiler. Then some
personnel changes, bass and drums.Copy !req
281. But Richie and Vito are still
the core of the band.Copy !req
282. Now they're called Visiting Day.Copy !req
283. This is some loud shit!Copy !req
284. That's Richie.Copy !req
285. And that's Vito.Copy !req
286. Fuck you!Copy !req
287. Sit the fuck down, you mullethead!Copy !req
288. This isn't the right place for them.Copy !req
289. You suck!Copy !req
290. Without the right help from you...Copy !req
291. Visiting Day could end up
in the miscellaneous V section.Copy !req
292. You interested?Copy !req
293. Yes.Copy !req
294. That scene where Pesci sticks
the guy's head in a vise...Copy !req
295. and then pops his eye out.
I thought I was gonna die!Copy !req
296. I'll be right back, okay?Copy !req
297. Excuse me.Copy !req
298. - It's this way?
- Yes.Copy !req
299. Thank you.Copy !req
300. - I don't know.
- What?Copy !req
301. Richie, the guy's 30,
still lives with his parents.Copy !req
302. It's because of the accident.Copy !req
303. Richie had third-degree burns
from trying...Copy !req
304. to grill that trout
with a downed power line.Copy !req
305. But at the same time, being
electrocuted turned his life around.Copy !req
306. Well, you did
some ace fucking selling.Copy !req
307. You think?Copy !req
308. Yeah, thing is though...Copy !req
309. music is not something
you can hold in your hands, you know?Copy !req
310. Like football betting, cards or coke.Copy !req
311. It's art.Copy !req
312. Berry Gordy, whatever,
he had to see it in the Supremes.Copy !req
313. It's an instinct.
I see it in Richie.Copy !req
314. Yeah, probably is.Copy !req
315. I'm really fucking doing it!Copy !req
316. And it's all thanks to you.Copy !req
317. I'm gonna make a demo CD like
Massive advised. And then, yeah!Copy !req
318. My wife thinks I need
to meet new people.Copy !req
319. - So?
- You're Italian, you understand.Copy !req
320. We're brought up to think
the americani are fucking bores.Copy !req
321. But the average white man's
no more boring...Copy !req
322. than the millionth conversation over
who should have won, Marciano or Ali.Copy !req
323. Am I to understand that
you don't consider yourself white?Copy !req
324. I don't mean white like Caucasian.
I mean a white man.Copy !req
325. Like our friend Cusamano.Copy !req
326. Now, he's Italian,
but he's americano.Copy !req
327. What Dad called a "Wonder Bread Wop."
He eats his Sunday gravy out of a jar.Copy !req
328. You seem to want to branch out.
What's stopping you?Copy !req
329. The guys, you know.Copy !req
330. What they'd think if I started
hanging out with the americani.Copy !req
331. I was in the neighborhood last night.
At the Cusamano's.Copy !req
332. Oh, yeah?Copy !req
333. Dinner party.Copy !req
334. You should have stopped by.
Live right next door.Copy !req
335. You didn't hear any strange noises
last night in your neighborhood?Copy !req
336. Noises?Copy !req
337. Like someone screaming in pain?Copy !req
338. No.Copy !req
339. Probably a television set.Copy !req
340. You saw my house?Copy !req
341. Oh, this looks good.Copy !req
342. That sausage, where'd you get it?
That place in Garfield?Copy !req
343. - Honey? Where'd we get the sausage?
- That place in Garfield.Copy !req
344. The only thing better than salsiccia
is a pair of tits.Copy !req
345. It's a hell of a piece of meat.Copy !req
346. Salsiccia is a kind of a phallic thing.Copy !req
347. Whereas tits...Copy !req
348. Jack, you're a stockbroker, right?Copy !req
349. Any changes in the market coming?Copy !req
350. - It's always changing.
- Keeps us coming back.Copy !req
351. Rand, you hear from Ross on Dexplex?Copy !req
352. No, but the buyout is going down.Copy !req
353. Give me some warning.
I need to call the islands.Copy !req
354. Dexplex?Copy !req
355. It's a little company.
It's going public, maybe.Copy !req
356. Come on. The sun is shining,
it's a beautiful day.Copy !req
357. Let's not talk business for once.Copy !req
358. American Biotics.Copy !req
359. Barb, our stock guru.Copy !req
360. She thinks American Biotics
may be a good investment.Copy !req
361. They're close to a side-effect-free
anti-impotence drug.Copy !req
362. You guys play the stock market?Copy !req
363. Oh, we don't just play...Copy !req
364. We ought to just bag it.Copy !req
365. Okay, we're bagging it.Copy !req
366. We should've bagged this days ago
when it was perfect.Copy !req
367. I wish I had thought of that.Copy !req
368. It's good. You know, not bad.Copy !req
369. It's as good as we'll get.Copy !req
370. Oh, it wasn't too bad.
It was kind of good!Copy !req
371. What are you saying?
Is something wrong?Copy !req
372. We're all trying our best here.
I just think we hit a brick wall.Copy !req
373. Maybe some rest.Copy !req
374. Hey, hey, fuck that!Copy !req
375. I paid for three days' studio time.Copy !req
376. It'll only cost me more
to pack it up and come back again.Copy !req
377. We got through the instrumental
tracks with no problem.Copy !req
378. I'm fucking beat.Copy !req
379. What about we finish this shit?Copy !req
380. Three days we've been
slamming our hams!Copy !req
381. Kinko's gave me five days off.
No big deal.Copy !req
382. Kinko's? Buddy, this is
costing me 300 bucks an hour!Copy !req
383. Here, try this.Copy !req

401. You wanna know what the problem is?Copy !req
402. Where are the fucking choruses?Copy !req
403. All your songs, you got no choruses.Copy !req
404. Your choruses are just another verse.
What happened to "She loves You"?Copy !req
405. "She Loves You"?Copy !req
406. Yeah, the song started
with the chorus.Copy !req
407. There is structure.
That's how you build a song.Copy !req

427. Women are better savers than men.
And we are nurturers.Copy !req
428. What do you know about
the stock market?Copy !req
429. I keep my ears open.
CNBC is a very interesting channel.Copy !req
430. Your father, God bless him,

445. No, I never get down there.
Well, Disneyworld.Copy !req
446. You know, Al's place.Copy !req
447. Mount Plymouth?Copy !req
448. - Al Capone built it.
- No shit?Copy !req
449. - He was a golf fanatic, that's right.
- So you guys watch A&E.Copy !req
450. Tony, let me ask you a question.
If I'm stepping on toes, tell me.Copy !req
451. How real was The Godfather?Copy !req
452. I mean, in your opinion.Copy !req
453. - What do you mean, real?
- Authentic or not.Copy !req
454. I don't know.Copy !req
455. How would I know?
It was the '50s, right?Copy !req
456. - No, it wasn't. It was 1972.
- No, the story took place in the '50s.Copy !req
457. Did you really have to cut
your finger and take an oath?Copy !req
458. Like gridlock on Times Square
today, isn't it?Copy !req
459. Traffic in Manhattan's worsened

463. What do you think of
when you hear Mulberry Street?Copy !req
464. - Umberto's.
- Hey! All right!Copy !req
465. You ever see that picture of Galante
dead, with a cigar in his mouth?Copy !req
466. - No.
- It was a fucking beautiful hit.Copy !req
467. Sorry, Tony.
You probably knew the guy, huh?Copy !req
468. How fucking old you think I am?Copy !req
469. You don't have to answer this if you
don't want to, but I gotta know.Copy !req
470. Did you ever meet John Gotti?Copy !req
471. Yeah. I knew John.Copy !req
472. Fuck!Copy !req
473. What was he really like?Copy !req
474. - Remember Bungalow Bar?
- The ice cream trucks?Copy !req
475. Like Good Humor, except
the trucks had bungalow roofs on.Copy !req
476. Was Gotti a silent partner in that?Copy !req
477. I don't know nothing about that.Copy !req
478. Just know that
when the company folded...Copy !req
479. and they were auctioning off
the last truck...Copy !req
480. the one with the peaked roofs,
you're right, Cuse.Copy !req
481. When they were auctioning off
the last truck...Copy !req
482. and I wanted it as a souvenir...Copy !req
483. Gotti outbid me.Copy !req
484. Gave me a ride home.Copy !req
485. You know, he rang that bell
the whole way home?Copy !req
486. They're waving at us.Copy !req
487. Oh, I love this part.Copy !req
488. This is good.Copy !req
489. Some good guitar. Listen to that.Copy !req
490. They got it going on.Copy !req
491. Yeah.Copy !req
492. So?Copy !req
493. Well, I think it's not good.Copy !req
494. Want to be more specific?Copy !req
495. There's good and not good.
This is not good.Copy !req
496. Maybe it's not your era, no offense.Copy !req
497. Music is music. Talent is talent.
I don't care who you are.Copy !req
498. I've seen them all. I saw heavy metal
invented by Hendrix at the Cafe Wah.Copy !req
499. Kid just came out of the Army.
I said to him:Copy !req
500. "I don't know if it's talent,
charisma, magic, but you got it."Copy !req
501. These kids? They don't, sorry.Copy !req
502. You're just pissed about the sit-down.Copy !req
503. Get the fuck out of here
and stop wasting my time.Copy !req
504. This Vito is a great fucking
guitar player, Hesh.Copy !req
505. He's a great guitar player.Copy !req
506. However, there's one constant
in music.Copy !req
507. A hit is a hit and this is not a hit!Copy !req
508. - Why?
- Christ!Copy !req
509. For reasons we couldn't comprehend
or codify, you pathetic schlepper!Copy !req
510. Fucking Massive is a genius,
so what the fuck was he talking about?Copy !req
511. When I was a kid, there was this guy.Copy !req
512. We called him Jimmy Smash.Copy !req
513. Now, he wasn't retarded.Copy !req
514. But we thought he was because he had
one of these whatchamacallits:Copy !req
515. "Hey, Jimmy, how the fuck are you?"Copy !req
516. - What do you call that?
- Cleft palate.Copy !req
517. Yeah.Copy !req
518. Well, we was kids, right?
So what the hell did we know?Copy !req
519. Every time he opened his mouth,
we'd piss ourselves laughing.Copy !req
520. But Jimmy didn't mind because he got
to hang out with us, the popular crew.Copy !req
521. We called him when we were bored.Copy !req
522. Call him and say,
"Hey, Jimmy, sing 'Mack the Knife."'Copy !req
523. Because he wanted to hang out
with us, he'd belt it right out.Copy !req
524. We'd fucking roll
on the floor, laughing.Copy !req
525. And then, you know, when the laughs
got old, we stopped calling him.Copy !req
526. Wasn't until years later...Copy !req
527. I found out the poor prick
went home every night...Copy !req
528. and cried himself to sleep.Copy !req
529. Then when I found out, you know...Copy !req
530. I felt bad.Copy !req
531. But I never really understood
what he felt.Copy !req
532. To be used, you know...Copy !req
533. for somebody else's amusement
like a fucking dancing bear.Copy !req
534. Till I played golf with those guys.Copy !req
535. You thought Cusamano was your friend.Copy !req
536. You live, you learn.Copy !req
537. Can I ask you a question?Copy !req
538. Whatever happened to Jimmy?Copy !req
539. Jimmy Smash?
He's doing 20 for robbery.Copy !req
540. The cops knew who it was.Copy !req
541. He goes to the bank in a mask
and goes, "Give me all your money!"Copy !req
542. Some fucker's on the phone for you.Copy !req
543. - Good morning, Herman. I'm listening.
- Good.Copy !req
544. Don't miss what I have to say.
I've been thinking about it.Copy !req
545. - Go on.
- Find another schmuck to screw with.Copy !req
546. You do know what this means?Copy !req
547. Stupid enough to say it over
the phone. Let's hear it.Copy !req
548. I don't threaten, Herman. I act.Copy !req
549. Genius, you're in way over your head.
Why don't you back up a bit?Copy !req
550. You know, let sleeping dogs lie.Copy !req
551. Hey, Soprano.Copy !req
552. This is what I think about
this gangsta rap shit:Copy !req
553. You probably got a degree in
sociology from a city college.Copy !req
554. I grew up in the projects. Delta 13.Copy !req
555. Killed a man.Copy !req
556. Later on I got a degree,
but urban planning.Copy !req
557. You were close.Copy !req
558. Now, when it comes to
"Which is mightier...Copy !req
559. the pen or
the motherfucking sword?"...Copy !req
560. I let the situation dictate.Copy !req
561. Don't press it.Copy !req
562. I'm gonna do my part to keep
Mr. Rabkin's people working.Copy !req
563. What's that mean?Copy !req
564. Expect to hear from
Goldstein, Baum and Woronov.Copy !req
565. They represent us in the lawsuit.Copy !req
566. You gonna sue?Copy !req
567. With what I pay in retainers?
Fuck, yeah!Copy !req
568. I hear that.Copy !req
569. - Yeah, well...
- Listen, tatteleh.Copy !req
570. Be advised that on your last single,
you sampled the backing vocal...Copy !req
571. from the Chablis' 1968 song,
"Riff Wit It"...Copy !req
572. for which F-Note Records controls
the recording rights.Copy !req
573. - No shit.
- Yes, shit.Copy !req
574. I would, of course,
have to countersue.Copy !req
575. I'll see you in court.Copy !req
576. Fucking legal fees.Copy !req
577. What kind of melanzane are these?
They call themselves gangsters.Copy !req
578. It's a new fucking day.Copy !req
579. Fucking depressing.Copy !req
580. Now, this is a Donatella Versace.Copy !req
581. Nice.Copy !req
582. You like it better than the Alaia?Copy !req
583. - Keep them both.
- Christopher, $2400!Copy !req
584. - I don't think you really like it.
- I like it. I like it.Copy !req
585. MTV Awards?Copy !req
586. What?Copy !req
587. Nothing.Copy !req
588. I thought that fight was over.Copy !req
589. You want me to take it back?
No problem.Copy !req
590. No! Fuck, I want you to have it.Copy !req
591. You know how I use
positive visualization?Copy !req
592. I know you talk about it. You're
fairly negative a lot of the time.Copy !req
593. You should mentally prepare...Copy !req
594. for the fucking possibility
that Visiting Day sucks.Copy !req
595. What?Copy !req
596. You've gotten this far with Massive
because he wants to be in your pants.Copy !req
597. Boy, oh, boy.Copy !req
598. I let some experts listen to
the demo. They shit all over it.Copy !req
599. Experts? Who? Hesh?
That old fucking synagogue cantor?Copy !req
600. Silvio, he owned rock clubs in Asbury.Copy !req
601. You heard what Squid said.
He's a professional engineer.Copy !req
602. What about my opinion?
That it's good, that it's special?Copy !req
603. His eyes are on your ass 98 percent
of the time. You know that.Copy !req
604. You're just trying to keep me down!Copy !req
605. That ain't fair!Copy !req
606. I don't want these clothes.Copy !req
607. What's wrong with it?
What's wrong with Visiting Day?Copy !req
608. I don't know.Copy !req
609. It's a problem that you don't know.
Richie, he'll sing anything.Copy !req
610. You just don't believe my relationship
with Massive isn't based on fucking!Copy !req
611. It's based on intelligence.Copy !req
612. Respect. Talent!Copy !req
613. I'll shut up.Copy !req
614. You saying I don't have talent?Copy !req
615. I branched out, made new friends,
new horizons and you can't stand that!Copy !req
616. Yeah, go silent. That's you:Copy !req
617. Either screaming your head off
or fucking dead.Copy !req
618. I don't think I can stay here anymore.Copy !req
619. - I love you.
- That is such a lie!Copy !req
620. - Hey, Carmela!

628. - So what are you doing with the box?
- Give it to him.Copy !req
629. - Tell him to hold onto it for a while.
- Oh, Tony, that is so evil!Copy !req
630. Yeah, I know.
That's why it's so much fun.Copy !req
631. Oh, God.Copy !req
632. Cuse! Cuse! Cuse!Copy !req
633. Come here.Copy !req
634. - Hey, Ton. How you doing?

635. Fine, thanks. Listen...Copy !req
636. you know, that nickname...Copy !req
637. What? Cuse? Cusamano!Copy !req
638. - It's got that other connotation—
- No, no, not anymore.Copy !req
639. I need a little solid. I need you
to hang onto this for a while for me.Copy !req
640. Hang onto it and I'll come get it
when I need it.Copy !req
641. How long?Copy !req
642. A month. Maybe more, maybe less.Copy !req
643. - Okay? Thanks.
- Yeah, sure.Copy !req
644. I meant to ask you about the club.
What's going on?Copy !req
645. Oh, the club.Copy !req
646. I'm sorry, Ton.
Membership's closed.Copy !req
647. - Closed?
- Yeah.Copy !req
648. - No new members until old members die.

649. - Nothing we could do anything about.
- No biggie, Cuse.Copy !req
650. - You sure?
- Thanks.Copy !req
651. - I mean, because—
- No. I'll live.Copy !req
652. Now, that's a hit.Copy !req
653. What is it? Heroin?Copy !req
654. Shit, Jean, I don't know.
A weapon? I don't know.Copy !req
655. Could be anything.Copy !req
656. Don't touch it.Copy !req
