A.J. drops by his apartment building on Fleet St to grab a shower & a fresh suit after his two sexual encounters w/ Nurse Rhonda & Roxanne earlier.
Then A.J. drove uptown to play Julianna Skiff at visit at his new warehouse offices where she manages & operates as his T-Properties Agent. At the same offices that Raymond Curto Jr & Robbie Pontecorvo operated his T-Bondsman start-up business from.
But as he pulled up Julianna was leaving the building in the middle of the afternoon. A.J. rolls his car to a stop & rolls down the electric passenger door window to ask her:"What's Up Jules?!"
Julianna skips over to the curb wearing her high heels & leans over in the window to frame her modest braless breast hanging out as "Low Hanging Fruit"--(Ripe for the Picking) from her baggy low-cut blouse benenth a yellow business jacket.
"Little Dicky has a Little League game this afternoon! He's playing Short-Stop for the first time & I don't want to miss it!"
"Well don't let me stop you Julie! I just dropped by to Touch Base & Bullshit!" A.J. politely smiles.
"Damn Anthony you are a Handsome Young Man! & That Smile of your's would make any hot-blooded woman wet! If I were only ten years younger I would jump your bones myself!" Julianna confessed as a "Tease" would.
A.J. didn't know what to say to that as there was a long pause.
"I have an idea T! Follow Me to the ball park we can share a box of popcorn & chat during the game?! Dicky just needs to see that I am there as his proud mother!" (Yea--Sure. I'll follow you!) A.J. agrees.
But when they arrived at the ball park A.J. sees Benny Fazio Jr on the pitchers' mount as Julianna points out her son "Little Dicky" playing the shortstop position on the same team behind Benny.
Then before he can turn around he is mugged by his little sister Caitlyn & his niece Nica who were there w/ their Aunt Barbara & Jeni Fazio to watch Benny play baseball.
A.J. introduced the two girls to Julianna as his sister & niece while pointing out & waving at his Aunt who sat beside Jeni in the bleachers behind Home plate.
After walking the girls up to the concession stand to get them both popcorns & a bag of candies before A.J. introduced Julianna to Barbara & Jeni who she was already acquainted to since their sons were teammates.
"What a Small World!" was all A.J. could say before excusing himself to leave the Woman & the Girls to themselves in the bleachers.
A.J. went to stand down the baseline behind the boy's team dugout to watch the game & smoke cigarettes by himself.
"What a pleasant surprise to see you here Anthony!" Jeni said standing behind him. A.J. turned to hug & kiss her cheek.
"Yes--It all happened by Chance!" A.J. confesses.
"I know! Julianna told me how she works for you now & how she invited you along to watch her son play."
"Yes Julianna is my Property Agent. I met her son Dicky at the Skyline Golf Coarse where he takes lessons." A.J. elaborated.
"However it happened?--I'm just glad it happened!" Jeni admits as she hugs him back & leans up to return a kiss on his cheek.
"I've missed you Anthony since I've been staying at my parents house. I hate it there but Benny is happy."
Then A.J. asked her if he could come & pick her up Sunday afternoon? He had a funeral to attend first but he would be free once it was over. Jeni could only smile & knod her head "Yes." (GOOD!)
A.J. stayed the entire game after Jeni returned to the bleachers w/a bounce to her step & a wiggle to her ass walking away from him.
A.J. patted both boys on the back & Congratulates them on their victory before he leaves; Kissing Caitlyn Nica & his Aunt Barbara telling them all that his mother Carmela was returning to Newark tomorrow to visit again. "She won't admit it but she misses us!" A.J. laughes.
A.J. sneaks in Through the OUT door of the BBW BING's rear entrance. He had called Vito Tommy & Bobby to meet him there for a brief business sit-down & dinner w/drinks & entertainment.
The long time waitress & retired dancer Sandrine sneaks up behind A.J. as he was cutting through the pantry to avoid his Aunt Janice's office & she reaches around to cover his eyes w/ both hands:
"I caught you my Young Soprano! You're Mine Now! Looks like you need to hire someone to watch your back if I can reach out & touch you!"
A.J. played along standing froze w/ his hands up in the air saying: "Maybe I should hire you to do that Sandrine?!"
"DAMN. How did you know it was me A.J.?!" (Your Fragrance gives you away everytime! I'd know your SMELL Anywhere!)
"Thanks but No Thanks A.J.--I already have a job besides it would take a better woman than me to watch your back!" (You call this a job?!)
"HEY--IIT PAYS THE BILLS!" & She drops her hands down from over his eyes to slap his back & pinches his butt-cheek real hard--laughing out loud.
"OUCH. THAT HURT!" A.J. grabs his ass as he turns to face her smiling. "You play too Hard Sandy!" He protested teasingly.
"OH--I CAN PLAY MUCH ROUGHER THEN THAT!" (That's what I am afraid of!)
"You Afraid?!" (Well I'm sure fucking Afraid of you Sandrine!)
"Oh--You're just saying that Anthony! You Flatter me!" Sandrine pokes him in the chest.
"What are you doing here for anyway?!" Sandrine crosses her arms & gives A.J. "The Look."
"Just Dinner & Drinks w/ Vito & my cousins Tommy & Bobby. Where's Janice?"
"Where do you think? She's in the office on the phone trying to sell her dead husband's model train collection! It's an obsession! She's been trying to sell them for ten years. I don't know what she will do w/all of her free time if she does eventually sell them?!"
"Well we all know Why? she hasn't sold them after a decade of trying." (She's Too Greedy!)
"You said that!--I didn't!" A.J. laughes grabbing Sandrine by the shoulders w/ both hands to kiss her on the forehead asking her if she could prepare them a private V.I.P. room table for four?
"YOU BET A.J. & I'll be your waitress too! I know You're a Big Tipper!" Sandrine leans up to kiss him back on the cheek.
A.J. entered his Aunt Janice's office without knocking. Janice jerks her head around w/a glare that faded onto a smile. She covered the telephone reciever to whisper:
"Oh It's You Anthony! I'm on the phone trying to sell Bobby's goddamn trains."
A.J. lights up a cigerette before reaching across the desk to hang the phone up on her.
"HELLO? HELLO? What the Fuck are you doing A.J.?!" Janice snapped slamming the reciever to the landlines phone down.
"What are you doing?!" (WHAT?)
"What are you doing?!" A.J. repeats himself.
Janice glares & reaches out her hand & wiggles her fiingers at him: "HERE!--GIVE ME A DRAG!"
A.J. hands his burning cigerette & tells her to keep it as he lights a second one for himself while she produces a glass ashtray from her bottom desk-drawer.
"Well I was still trying to sell those fucking trains that are taking up half of my goddamn garage! I had a serious buyer interested on the line until you came barging in here & rudely interrupting my phone call!" Janice scolds her nephew.
"So how much for the trains?" (What?)
"How much for the trains? What are you asking for all of them together?" (100K$)
"OK." (OK What?!)
"OK. I will buy then. (ALL of them for 100K$?!)
"Yes. All of them. I will even come myself to take them off your hands & remove in one of my moving trucks."
"Oh Anthony! You'll do that for me?!" (Yes.)
"Well I want it all to go! I want my garage back! I want you to take everything A.J. trash & all! I will even give you his old car that he never restored too. You can sell or junk it & keep the money. I just want it all to go! I have a four bay garage & can only use one bay of it to park or use as storage. When can you do it? (Tomorrow & I will bring you the cash then too!)
"You are such a good boy Anthony John Jr! I love you!" & Janice remain sitting at her desk & hugged him around the waist as she finished her cigarette. (I can't fucking believe it!)
Vito arrived first & the two Young Soprano Brothers went into the small private V.I.P. Banquet room to sit at the end of the bar together. A J. held up two fingers at Sandrine for two Rums then he asked Vito if he had any "BLOW" on him? (Always T.) Vito produces a half ounce rock of cocaine in a baggy from his jacket pocket.
"Good Man! Cut us out both some long gagger lines on this marble bar-top V before we have dinner! I'm in the Mood!"
"You're in the Mood for what A.J.?!" Sandrine asked as she served them their drinks. A.J. knods his head down gesturing for her to look.
"OH--I SEE!" Sandrine said blushing w/big questioning eyes watching Vito slicing & chopping the illegal white substance into powder w/ a razor blade to make four long fat gagger lines for them to snort. (Cut Sandy-Girl here a couple lines too V.)
"Ahhh A.J.--You're the Greatest!"
"NO. I'm Not Really Sand--As I told you earlier-- I AM afraid of you!" A.J. teased her while elbowing Vito playfully.
About them Tommy & Bobby came walking in together. A.J. holds up two fingers again to gesture: "Get these two boys a drink Sandy!"
"Are you so sure they are old enough to drink anything besides water & ice A.J. ?!" Sandrine crossed her arms giving them a long look up & down while pretending to suspiciously question the two young cousins. (YEA! IM SURE!) They all got a laugh out of it.
Then A.J. when on to tell them that Ray Ray had called earlier to inform him that his mother is dead. Raymond discovered her when he returned home. Apparently she slipped/tripped fell into the swimming pool cracked her head & drown. (That's Crazy) They agreed.
At which point Bobby looks up at the muted flat-screen television on the wall to point out: "LOOK! It's Raymond on the News!"
Raymond Curto Jr sat in electric wheel-chair outside his house being interviewed by all the local news media reporters.
Raymond was "Cool as a Cucumber" fielding all of the questions in front of cameras & microphones concerning his mother's accidental death.
Raymond explained how he discovered her floating facedown in the swimming pool returning home from work.
Then he was asked where he worked being a disabled person? Raymond paused wiping his lips to first address the pursumptious media's false assumption that he was disabled by correcting them.
"First of all--I am not disabled. I have been inflicted by MS since birth. Secondly I am employed by T-BONDSMAN Business here in Newark & the surrounding area."
Raymond shamelessly gave their bondsman business a free advertisement plug "LIVE" over all of the local media outlets.
"WHAT A FUCKING GUY! HE'S ONE SMOOTH SON OF A BITCH!" A.J. compliments his dear close friend's impressive public speaking skills remaining calm while knowing the truth.
A.J. raises his glass to: "STATUE!" Then he informs Vito to collect envelopes from the Family for Ray-Ray.
A.J. sends a message text while sitting at the bar before dinner to each of them in his Young Sopranos Crew--Vito Tommy Bobby Raymond & Robbie an online documentary link:
WAR ON THE MAFIA
https://youtu.be/JpL1HBLiuGQ?si=9etGEwGVmGGk3lG8
A.J. added instructions to Watch this as many times as necessary. There will be a discussion & a quiz to follow.
Then when they sat down to eat dinner A.J. began to expound upon the text-message:
"We need to Wise Up if we want to survive being Wise Guys. We can ill-afford to repeat our predecessors mistakes. Death is one bullet away from each one of us who have chosen this Life of "Cosa Nostra" as Jason Parisi's recent murder has proven."
