"You see that fella in the red sweater over there? His names Donnie McCoy. Works a few of the protection rackets for Cunnaro when hes waiting for something better to happen. Donnie and I have known each other since we were six. Take a good look at that face, Floyd. Because if he ever finds out I can be beat by one lousy grifter, Ill have to kill him and every other hood who wants to muscle in on my Chicago operation."
