Raymond Curto Jr entered the LIZZY NIGHT CLUB in Elizabeth NJ w/his half sister Raquel following closely behind.
"I will be goddamned--It's the "Lizard King!" Salvatore Sasso said to his younger brother Niccolo w/a back-hand.
"Hey Sally--Nicky!" Raymond cracked a shit-eating grin.
"Where the fuck have you been Ray-Ray?! Hiding under your Mommy's dress skirts?!"
"SALVATORE!--HIS MOTHER DIED!" Raquel rebuked her younger half brother.
"OH--SORRY. We didn't know. How did she died?" Sally reaches out his hand to shake & leaned over Raymond in his electric wheelchair to hug him.
"I drowned her dumb-ass in the swimming pool!" Raymond sneared.
"RAYMOND!--NO YOU DIDN'T?! She fell & struck her head & drowned herself!" Raquel dispelled.
"You can believe whatever you want!" Raymond laughed waving her off as he shakes hands w/Nicky. (You are such a lying fucker little brother!) Raquel slammed Raymond's shoulder as she stepped forward to embrace her other two younger half brothers.
"Hey Rave!" (Hi Raquel!)
"Why don't you fuckers take our big sister off my hands?! The Tramp showed up at my front door in Bayonne the day after the Old Lady died looking for some kind of inheritance!" (SHUT UP--I DID NOT RAYMOND!) her three half-brothers laughed outloud together.
"Come on Lizard!--Let's have a drink! What brings you out here to the "Sticks" anyway?!" Sally asked.
"I need you Boy's assistance. " (You do?!--Whats Up Ray-Ray?!
"I have a long list of local establishments in Newark proper that I have to address. They are operating without paying any Tax. & I need some extra Muscle to assist me!" (YEA?! How long a list?)
"A dozen or so businesses. Shamlocking. Gambling. Drugs. & Prostitution. You know your typical Run of the Mill Illegal Rackets."
"SURE!--When Raymond?!" (How much does it pay?!)
"TOMMOROW SAL. & Pays 4K$." (EACH?!)
"FUCK NO!--4K$ between Yous! That's what I appreciate about you Little Nicky--Aways that What's the Bottom-Line Guy!
"YEA.--WE CAN DO IT RAY-RAY!" Sally agrees looking at Nicky.
"How about 5K instead?!" (NICKY?!)
"THAT FUCKING BOY WILL SQUEEZE BLOOD FROM A STONE!" Raymond laughes.
"5K it is then but you will have to bring your own baseball bats!" (SEE!) Nicky backhands Sally whose glaring back at his little overbearing brother.
"You Boys show up at my house tomorrow afternoon & just expect to stay the weekend. It will take us at least two nights & a day to make our Clean Sweep! You can stay in the guest house.
Bring the "Philosopher" w/ you too if he's interested?! Also: Bring a couple cases of those SASSO BROTHERS' SAUSAGES--So we can Grill Out!" Raymond added.
"GOOD DEAL LIZARD!" The two Sasso Brothers agreed shaking hands w/Raymond.
"Now. Come outside--I have something else for you two Losers!" Raymond pokes them. (What is it?!)
"NICKY?! GODDAMN IT." Sally elbows him hard in the ribs. (WHAT?!--IM JUST ASKING!)
"WELL STOP JUST ASKING THEN!" Sally scolded him as they follow Raymond & Raquel out to their parked van.
"Here's some Blow to Sample! Let me know what you think about it & if you'd be interested in moving any of it?! Just don't get all strung out on that Shit. I need you two to be Whole & Ready to go to Work for me tomorrow!"
"OK--LET'S GO TRAMP! SAY YOUR GOOD-BYES SO WE CAN GET OUT OF THIS SHIT-HOLE TOWN!" Raymond laughed as he rolled his wheelchair up on the van's handicap accessible ramp.
"We'll be expecting to see you two Sasso Fuckers tomorrow afternoon! & Make sure you both have your Heads on straight too!" Raymond finished as he slammed the sliding van door closed behind him without any Thanks. (LETS GO TRAMP!--DRIVE ON!)
A.J. took Julianna Skiff w/Tommy Giglione & Patrick Parisi over the river to NYC at BARTELLO'S RESTAURANT for a business dinner that had to be canceled the evening before when Nuovo Vesuvio was closed unexpectedly due to Emergency Repairs.
A.J. announced to his small ring of trust concerning his business affairs that he was promoting Julianna to be his CEO & he had hired Patrick to be his President of Operations.
Tommy would remain being their Head-Accountant & should be defer to in the case of A.J.'s absence.
Then A.J. explained his vision for their business going forward. Besides wanting to rearrange the office furniture. By giving Julianna the larger back office & installing Patrick into her middle office since he decided to leave his old firm job. Once A.J. offered him a full time position & a 1000$ a week more to work for him.
A.J. will leave his Bondsman Business Office there for Raymond Curto Jr & his new man Kevin Sharkey.
But what A.J. wanted Julianna & Patrick to collaborate together to start up a Temporary Employment Service.
This project will require them to create a marketing platform to catalog Employers & a working pool of available Part Time/Temporary Employees for a Flat 20% commission.
A.J. seen it as a means of creating a non-union workforce where they could extract finder fees as union workers are required to pay in monthly dues. But they would generate 20% for every hour from each worker they employed instead of just once monthly dues.
Afterwards A.J. treated them all for drinks at the SWIZE CLUB to celebrate Julianna's well deserved promotion. A.J. was expecting to meet Vito there after he left Hell's Kitchen from comforting Venus Pagnilieri w/the lost of her retired Mob boss father George.
But when Vito arrived he made his entrance w/a well dressed stranger who peeled off as Vito approached A.J. & company.
"Who was that you walked in w/Vito?!" A.J. asked as he motioned for a waitress to bring his little brother a drink.
"You don't know T?!" Vito chuckles asking.
"No.--Should I?!" A.J. gave him a sideways look.
"Oh--I don't know if you should? But you do know who it is?!"
"OK--Riddler! Hold the thought!--I have to go piss. I'll be Right Back!" A.J. stands up to excuse himself from the table.
But when A.J. entered the restroom & stepped up to the clean--sanitized urinal to relieve his bladder he could hear two men entering behind him arguing.
When suddenly the two mean began fighting & exchanging violate blows:
"I'M NOT YOUR BITCH--OR ANYONE ELSE'S!"
A.J. never turned around to see who it was or what it was all about. He was having his own spiritual experience bonding w/the porcelain goddess while raining golden showers.
Then as A.J. finishes to pull up his zipper to wash his hands he finds Hymie Hyle laying in a pool of his own blood w/his pretty face smashed him.
"WHAT THE FUCK HERMUS?!" A.J. assisted his friend up off the bloody floor. Grabbing wads of paper towels to stop the bleeding.
"Who did this to you?!" A.J. asked w/all seriousness.
"You don't Know Anthony?!" (NO?!--I WAS PISSING!)
"Nevermind--It doesn't matter. I'm going to leave." Hymie feebly attempts to push A.J. away.
"HOW?! You can't drive. Both of your eyes will be swollen shut before you reach the Hudson River!
Tommy is out there. He can drive you home. Then Patrick can follow yous to East Orange to pick Tommy up & take him back to Bellville."
A.J. returned to the table where he finds the stranger sitting at their table w/Vito.
"Christ Almighty! Somebody just beat the fuck out of Hymie in the Men's Room!"
"It wasn't somebody--It was me!" The stranger admitted half laughing looking at Vito.
"Well who the Fuck are You?!" A.J. stands up & lunges forward to grab up the well-dressed man but Vito stands in between them:
"WAIT T!--ITS DOLAN!"
"I DONT KNOW NO FUCKING DOLAN!" A.J. continues coming.
"T!--WAIT! IT'S DOLLY!" (DOLLY?!)
A.J. stops & pauses: "DOLLY?!"
"YES! IT'S DOLAN SASSO--(DOLLY DARLING?!)
A..J. swallows hard & awkwardly smiles: "I See!" Then all three men get a big laugh & order another round of drinks as Julianna join the three men after Tommy & Patrick left w/Hymie out the side door.
"I will be goddamn Dolly--I mean Dolan. What the hell happened back there. You beat shit out of that poor guy?!"
"That fucking faggot was trying to play Grab-Dick w/me in there & I wasn't having any of it!"
"I GUESS NOT!" A.J. raised his drink to him laughing.
"SALUTE!"
