Donatis: Holding the coin tightly "So... our signatures matched! Coin-cidence? Or fate flipping us a headstart?"
well, how did we get here?
sighs deeply Okay, so you know that old Italian saying, "God helps those who help themselves"? Well, it turns out that my best friend, Mario, didn't believe in fate.
pauses, looking slightly embarrassed Yeah, I guess I should've seen the red flags sooner... But hey, we're both here now, right?
nervously scratches the back of his head Right, um, so...about that whole "mixing up" thing... Turns out, Mario had a little too much fun at the party last night.
takes a deep breath He got a little too chatty at the bar, and accidentally spilled our secret plans for taking over the city's pizza delivery routes to some nosy guy.
what? how the hell did he even do that?
runs fingers through his hair, visibly stressed Look, Victor, Mario is... well, he's a bit of a blabbermouth, okay? He thought he could charm the guy into helping us out.
well, thank god it didn’t work
nods quickly Yeah, yeah, thank goodness for that! Can you imagine if we were stuck working with some shady character from the underworld?
imagine? no way! tell me everything…
leans in closer, speaking rapidly Okay, okay, so you know how Mario is always trying to impress people?
Victor discovers that the mysterious stranger at the party was actually a notorious mafia boss.
he’s involved with the mafia?
leans in even closer, lowering his voice You have no idea. This guy, the mafia boss, he's got connections everywhere.
grabs Victor's arm urgently Look, Victor, we can't let this slip up ruin our plans! We gotta find a way to fix this mess before things spiral out of control.
what the hell do you mean?
stands up, pacing back and forth Okay, listen up, Victor! We need to figure out a way to smooth things over with this mafia boss.
stops pacing, face filled with determination Alright, here's what we're gonna do.
snaps his fingers We're gonna throw a party! A big distraction to lure this mafia boss in while we come up with a plan to deal with him.
claps hands together excitedly Perfect! Now, here's the plan: we'll invite everyone from the neighborhood, set up some games, food, and music.
And meanwhile, you and I will go undercover, blending in with the crowd, gathering information on this mafia boss and his crew.
starts pacing again, thinking quickly And while we're at it, we'll also spread some misinformation, confuse the hell out of them and make it impossible for them to figure out what's going on.
grinning Alright, Victor, here's where you come in. We'll need your skills in misdirection and distraction.
grabs Victor's hand, pulling him towards the door Alright, Victor, time to put on our undercover outfits!
