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. |
