00:00:00I'm in the body of Lila Romano?
00:00:24It is 1924.
00:00:27What wedding?
00:00:30You're not Lila Romano.
00:00:32Who are you?
00:00:33Not your ass!
00:00:35Did you use opium?
00:00:36What?
00:00:36You're not quite like the Lila Romano I remember.
00:00:39Is that a smile I see on Eddie Giovanni?
00:00:42Have you been taking care of me all night?
00:00:45I wouldn't have trusted anybody else.
00:00:47I'm terrified of losing you, Lila.
00:00:51I love you.
00:00:52I love you too.
00:00:54You're not going anywhere.
00:00:56You're mine.
00:00:57You want your brother killed, and you want your sister dead.
00:01:03My name is Lila Turner.
00:01:05I'm from Suture.
00:01:06Luca Trevino is moving on our territory.
00:01:11So you want me to betray Eddie?
00:01:13There's no place for you in this family, Lila.
00:01:16Goodbye, slave love.
00:01:19No!
00:01:27What did I say about using my couch, Lila?
00:01:33This is my mother's house.
00:01:35You don't even own a fork.
00:01:37Your mother is dead as a doornail.
00:01:40Ever since my mother married your father, this all became mine too.
00:01:44You're a vulture, Vivian.
00:01:45And you're a useless worm.
00:01:48All you do is spend your time reading these books.
00:01:55Eddie Giovanni made his way across the room towards the love of his life, Lila Romano.
00:02:01Ugh.
00:02:02The lead character's name is Lila too.
00:02:04Get that back!
00:02:06No wonder you don't get any men.
00:02:08You spend all your time reading paper porn.
00:02:11They're stories about love.
00:02:12Something you wouldn't understand.
00:02:14What have you done?
00:02:19I'm helping you.
00:02:21Otherwise, you'd spend all your time in your room alone, rotting, thinking about some fictional mobster.
00:02:26There's no love for you in this world.
00:02:44Oopsie.
00:02:45You!
00:02:50If only I could be in a different world.
00:03:14I hope you're feeling better, madam.
00:03:39Who are you?
00:03:41Where am I?
00:03:43You don't remember?
00:03:45You fainted while you were discussing the prospect of your wedding.
00:03:49Wedding?
00:03:52What wedding?
00:03:53The wedding between you and Mr. Eddie Giovanni.
00:04:13Leave us, Mary.
00:04:19I have some matters to discuss with Ms. Romano alone.
00:04:23I'm sorry.
00:04:25Did that lady just say Eddie Giovanni?
00:04:28She did.
00:04:29Eddie the Hound Giovanni.
00:04:33Second oldest son of Don Giovanni.
00:04:35One of the runners of the greatest bootlegging operations in 1924.
00:04:39It is 1924.
00:04:42Oh my god, you're real!
00:04:43I mean, I knew you were real, but never in my mind did I imagine actually meeting you.
00:04:49If you're feeling fine, perhaps we should head downstairs.
00:04:53Wait.
00:04:54You don't understand.
00:04:55This is going to sound really weird, but I know a lot about you.
00:05:01The truth is...
00:05:31I know a lot about you.
00:05:43The truth is, I can't stand you.
00:06:13What? You deaf. I said I can't stand you, so wipe that smirk off your face.
00:06:23What did I ever do to you? Where do I start? Your lousy sister, goose of a broad, won't stop spinning yarns about the great Romanos coming from Sicily.
00:06:38My sister? And becoming one of the most respected mafia families that ran half the country.
00:06:43That was a decade ago. You've lost everything. Now you're just a name.
00:06:49Hey, I just got here.
00:06:54This marriage, you and me, this is business.
00:06:59The elders of the Giovanni family need me to marry Mafia royalty so we can parlay with the other families because a bigger enemy is coming to town soon.
00:07:12We offer you shelter. You lend me your last name.
00:07:18That's all this is. So stop yapping in my ears like you're doing me a favor.
00:07:23Wait. What is my name?
00:07:31Have you had too much whiskey?
00:07:34You're Lila Romano, the last full-blood member of the Romano family.
00:07:39So you're saying I'm in the body of Lila Romano?
00:07:52Did you use opium?
00:07:55What? No. God, why do you gotta be so rude?
00:07:59You're nothing like you are in the book.
00:08:04The book?
00:08:05Yeah. In the book you're such a gentleman, all spiky on the outside, but sweet on the inside.
00:08:11But you're nothing but spikes.
00:08:12I've had enough of your rubbish. Let's get this over with.
00:08:15I'll see you downstairs.
00:08:19Oh God.
00:08:22What am I gonna do?
00:08:39Hello dear sister.
00:08:46Vivian?
00:08:48What are you doing here?
00:08:49We were all so very worried about you.
00:08:52Giovanni's do like on whiskey strong.
00:08:57Vivian Turner.
00:08:58I will never forgive you for what you did to my mother's ash.
00:09:02What in God's name are you talking about?
00:09:05What kind of name is Turner?
00:09:07We're the proud Romano's.
00:09:11Oh man.
00:09:12You look just like her.
00:09:16Well, you seem alright.
00:09:19Let's continue the conversation, shall we?
00:09:25Like I said, the name Romano is a pass to many precious opportunities.
00:09:30If Eddie wants to marry my sister, I think $10,000 is more than fair.
00:09:35And I think the Don would agree if he were here today.
00:09:37My father's sick.
00:09:40So as the oldest son, my word is his word.
00:09:43Your family are fallen royalty.
00:09:45And desperate for a lifesaver.
00:09:48I beg your pardon?
00:09:49You hurt me.
00:09:50Eddie Giovanni.
00:09:51Your family would not be where they are today without my family's support.
00:09:53And they have my utmost respect.
00:09:55But you're now worth more than a nickel and two dimes.
00:09:57Hey!
00:09:59You don't know anything about me.
00:10:01Can't say I'm thrilled to know more.
00:10:02It is in our father's best interest to have this marriage.
00:10:03So, $10,000 for the lovely Lila Romano.
00:10:05Deal.
00:10:06Good.
00:10:07Good.
00:10:08Ah, I know, you don't have a medal but do it for the family!
00:10:12I won't have anything.
00:10:27Yes.
00:10:30I know you don't want it, Eddie.
00:10:32But do it for the family.
00:10:34I won't marry you.
00:10:53What'd you say?
00:10:54The marriage is off, Mr. Giovanni.
00:11:00Thought we had a deal.
00:11:02Yeah, I thought we had a deal.
00:11:03Screw you and your stupid deal.
00:11:06I'm not some call girl you can buy with petty cash.
00:11:09And I'll only marry for love, so up your ass!
00:11:20What is this?
00:11:24Can't stand your rubbish.
00:11:26Yeah, well, sorry my ways of speaking aren't up to your standards.
00:11:29Not everybody went to Yale, asshole.
00:11:33Who are you?
00:11:33Let go of me!
00:11:36You seem like a good girl from a nice family.
00:11:38Mind to share the fortune and spare a few bucks?
00:11:43I don't have any 1920s money.
00:11:46Pretty dressed like this ought to cost a pretty penny.
00:11:50Did you think I was kidding you?
00:11:53Let go of me!
00:11:54I tried to be nice to you.
00:12:14Walk away, sport.
00:12:16This is none of your business.
00:12:18Oh, I'm afraid it is.
00:12:19Shut up!
00:12:20What are you doing here?
00:12:25It's none of your business.
00:12:35Look out, Eddie!
00:12:36Eddie?
00:12:38You're the hound!
00:12:39You're Giovanni!
00:12:41Go ahead.
00:12:43Cut me with you.
00:12:43I'm sorry, sir.
00:12:46I swear I didn't know.
00:12:48Apologize to the lady.
00:12:50I'm sorry, miss.
00:12:51I did a troop.
00:12:52You're fine.
00:13:13You're fine.
00:13:13I'm stupid.
00:13:21What?
00:13:22The street is very well known to be dangerous.
00:13:25Even a three-year-old knows better than to walk the street alone.
00:13:29What is your freaking problem?
00:13:33Why are you here anyways?
00:13:34I thought you couldn't stand me.
00:13:36The two families have been in talks for months about this marriage.
00:13:39Deal's a deal.
00:13:39Well, tell them I changed my mind.
00:13:43Where is my house?
00:13:59Whoa.
00:14:01This is so 1920s.
00:14:09Nikki, it's me.
00:14:10Lila Romano has returned home safe.
00:14:14You saw her home?
00:14:15I thought you didn't care for her.
00:14:17It's the principal, Nikki.
00:14:19I'm a man.
00:14:21Can't let a lady walk home alone.
00:14:31Oh.
00:14:32Lila Romano, proud daughter of a fallen Mafia family.
00:14:53What's that in your hand?
00:14:56It's whiskey.
00:14:58Obviously.
00:14:58Who are you?
00:15:02Are you a member of the family?
00:15:04Officer Francis.
00:15:06I'm going to have to arrest you for illegal possession of alcohol.
00:15:15Illegal?
00:15:16You ever heard of something called the 18th Amendment?
00:15:23Oh, my God.
00:15:24I totally forgot.
00:15:25It's Prohibition.
00:15:26I was in this area to investigate another altercation, but looks like now I've got bigger
00:15:31fish to fry.
00:15:33I'm sorry, sir.
00:15:33It was an honest mistake, I swear.
00:15:35Yeah.
00:15:36Hold still.
00:15:38Might touch you somewhere on accident.
00:15:40Unless you like that sort of thing.
00:15:42Don't touch me!
00:15:44Get your hands off her.
00:15:45Who the hell are you?
00:15:49Somebody you ought to listen to.
00:15:51Every day, I see about a hundred two-pick goons like you, screwing five-dollar hookers
00:15:57and thinking you're hot shots.
00:16:00I'm not a hooker.
00:16:01Shut your mouth, worthless whore.
00:16:04Can't you see I'm talking to big boy Johnny Pants here?
00:16:07Oh!
00:16:08Oh!
00:16:10Oh!
00:16:15You hit me.
00:16:18I sure did.
00:16:20And I'll do it again if you don't leave now.
00:16:23You assaulted a police officer.
00:16:27They'll hang you.
00:16:30No, they won't.
00:16:32And I'll tell you what happens next.
00:16:34I'll pay a visit to the second brown house on Elman 12th Street.
00:16:42That's my house.
00:16:43How would you know?
00:16:44Leave now.
00:16:46Or I'll paint your house with the blood of your wife, Mary, and your little girl, Jessica.
00:16:51Your superior officers come to us every Sunday for extra cash.
00:16:59You can either be on the side of that or the other side.
00:17:04Oh, my God.
00:17:04You're Giovanni.
00:17:06And she's a Romano.
00:17:10It's an honest mistake, madam.
00:17:11I'm going.
00:17:12I'm going!
00:17:13I'm going!
00:17:20Thanks.
00:17:21Flashing a bottle of whiskey in front of a copper.
00:17:24Could you be any more careless?
00:17:28I'm sorry.
00:17:29I wasn't thinking straight.
00:17:31No shit.
00:17:32What if I hadn't been there, huh?
00:17:34You could have been in serious trouble.
00:17:35What is your freaking problem?
00:17:37You know, ever since we've met, you've been nothing but cruel.
00:17:40Cruel?
00:17:42Me?
00:17:43You and your sister have been bugging me for months.
00:17:46Then why don't you leave me alone?
00:17:48I already told you.
00:17:50The marriage.
00:17:51For God's sake.
00:17:52You clearly weren't interested.
00:17:53I did you a favor by calling that off.
00:17:55That's not an issue for me.
00:17:57But rumors travel fast in this town.
00:17:59And it's in both our family's best interest to remain friendly.
00:18:02Friendly?
00:18:04You mocked me.
00:18:05You...
00:18:06That look on your face.
00:18:07I mean, I know.
00:18:08I know you weren't talking about me when you were talking about me.
00:18:11But I mean, it still really hurt my feelings.
00:18:13Look, I've had enough disappointment as it is.
00:18:17I don't need your pity sandwich.
00:18:21Just go.
00:18:25Alright, that's enough.
00:18:27Shit, that's enough.
00:18:43I'm sorry.
00:18:48I took it too far.
00:18:52Perhaps I was lost in the moment.
00:18:58This will sound strange to you, but...
00:19:00You're not quite like the Lila Romana I remember.
00:19:05What do you remember?
00:19:06Arrogant.
00:19:10Insincere.
00:19:12Untrustworthy.
00:19:15What about me?
00:19:18You show your feelings.
00:19:21You're real.
00:19:23Too real.
00:19:25Is that a problem?
00:19:28For bootleggers like us?
00:19:30Yes.
00:19:33So if you're not Lila Romano,
00:19:36who are you?
00:19:46My name is Lila Turner.
00:19:51I'm from the future.
00:19:56The future.
00:19:59Yep.
00:20:00Yeah.
00:20:03It's how we say yes.
00:20:05In the future.
00:20:05Are you trying to make a fool of me?
00:20:08No, I'm being dead honest.
00:20:10What would I have to gain from lying to you?
00:20:13You speak funny.
00:20:16I've taken notice of that.
00:20:24What are we going to do?
00:20:26This marriage would benefit both of our families greatly.
00:20:29Perhaps it shouldn't be Eddie.
00:20:33Whoever marries a Romano will succeed the Don and become the man in charge.
00:20:38I don't think Eddie would be the right leader.
00:20:43Why can't you marry?
00:20:45Because I'm only half Sicilian.
00:20:48You're a Romano.
00:20:52You're a Romano.
00:20:53All that matters.
00:20:59You all right?
00:21:00We were talking when it happened.
00:21:19Matter of fact,
00:21:20your sister has a little proposition.
00:21:23What proposition?
00:21:24Proposition.
00:21:24Proposition.
00:21:24Proposition.
00:21:24Proposition.
00:21:30What are you doing?
00:21:34Huh.
00:21:36Ladies usually like that.
00:21:38Nick, what the hell was that?
00:21:40Father wanted one of us to marry a Romano.
00:21:43Since you don't want to do it,
00:21:44I'll do what must be done.
00:21:45You do not get to make decisions for me.
00:21:47It was for the family.
00:21:48For the family?
00:21:49We need a leader who can put the family before himself.
00:21:53And clearly, baby brother,
00:21:54that is not you.
00:22:00I'll accept your terms.
00:22:03As a matter of fact,
00:22:04I'll give you double what your sister proposed.
00:22:06How's that sound?
00:22:07Sounds terrible.
00:22:09I don't think you understand your situation.
00:22:12You need me far more than I need you.
00:22:15So obey.
00:22:23What are you doing, Eddie?
00:22:25Principles, Nikki.
00:22:26Both parties have to agree to the shared terms
00:22:28before there's a deal.
00:22:29I offered her better terms.
00:22:31She said no.
00:22:36Let go of me now.
00:22:44I'm your older brother.
00:22:45You embarrass me in front of a woman?
00:22:47You embarrass yourself.
00:22:52It's gotten into you, Eddie.
00:22:54Thought you hated her.
00:22:58Reconsider it.
00:22:59Why?
00:23:00All of a sudden,
00:23:01you want to marry her now?
00:23:11That's irrelevant.
00:23:13Do I need to remind you
00:23:14that she called off the wedding?
00:23:15Um,
00:23:16the decision wasn't final.
00:23:25But I'll keep you in the loop.
00:23:32Meaning you'll hear from me.
00:23:36You're the lady?
00:23:37Luca Trevino sent us a note.
00:23:44I want to peace talk.
00:23:55Come with me.
00:23:56What am I going to do?
00:23:57Stand there like a friggin' owl?
00:23:59Luca Trevino is raging war on the whole city.
00:24:02The only way to survive
00:24:03is to ally with the other families.
00:24:04But the name Giovanni
00:24:05doesn't hold enough weight.
00:24:07That's why you need the Romano.
00:24:10I wouldn't know what to say.
00:24:12I just need you to be there.
00:24:13Stop playing games,
00:24:29you dumb whore.
00:24:30What the hell is this place?
00:24:39Should I say congratulations?
00:24:54Or am I getting ahead of myself?
00:25:00I didn't know you'd bring the lady.
00:25:04Anything you have to say,
00:25:05she can hear it too.
00:25:07Lila Turner.
00:25:09I thought you were a Romano.
00:25:15Yes.
00:25:16That was a test.
00:25:18You passed.
00:25:22Man, he's good.
00:25:25As you may know, Mr. Giovanni,
00:25:27I have business interest in your city.
00:25:30Well, it's no secret these days.
00:25:32You're starting a war.
00:25:34I understand the decision
00:25:36to marry into a more compelling name.
00:25:38So the city's petty gangsters
00:25:41will join forces with some reassurance.
00:25:44So?
00:25:45So, I'll make you an offer.
00:25:47I'll cease expansion
00:25:48into your family's territories.
00:25:51You can be equal partners
00:25:52with shared profits.
00:25:54Well, that's great.
00:25:56If you ditch the Romano's.
00:25:59Are you joking, Mr. Trevino?
00:26:07I'm a businessman, Mr. Giovanni.
00:26:09I see more value in partnerships than feuds.
00:26:13Why can't we all be friends?
00:26:15Except
00:26:16for the Romano's.
00:26:22Simply
00:26:23because the name Romano
00:26:25means too much.
00:26:27The power balance will tilt.
00:26:29Unless we eliminate
00:26:30the prospect of rebellions,
00:26:31the Romano's
00:26:32will have to go.
00:26:34Well, you don't have to worry about me.
00:26:36I'll leave town
00:26:36and you'll never hear from me again.
00:26:39And lucky for us,
00:26:40there's only two of them left.
00:26:43So it'll be just as easy
00:26:45to kill them off.
00:26:46Witch!
00:26:52You said this was a peace talk.
00:26:55Did you see her name
00:26:57on the invitation letter?
00:26:58I can't help the fate
00:27:00of a little woman
00:27:00in a big man's world.
00:27:05Choose, Mr. Giovanni.
00:27:07Is it going to be
00:27:08the guaranteed safety
00:27:09of your family
00:27:10or a woman
00:27:11no one will remember
00:27:12a week from now?
00:27:19Eddie.
00:27:26Let her go.
00:27:28What?
00:27:29I said
00:27:30let her go.
00:27:37I just offered you
00:27:38the deal of a century.
00:27:40Are you out of your mind?
00:27:42You made me an offer
00:27:43and I refused it.
00:27:45It's that simple.
00:27:48You want to enter
00:27:49a war with us?
00:27:51A family that owns
00:27:52half of everything
00:27:53and just about everywhere.
00:27:55Just for this?
00:27:56Watch what you say.
00:27:58This is still
00:27:59my city.
00:28:00I took you
00:28:08for a more serious
00:28:09man,
00:28:10Mr. Giovanni.
00:28:17You're one lucky lady.
00:28:18Can we go now?
00:28:32They're not going
00:28:32to let us out
00:28:33of here alive.
00:28:34We gotta hide.
00:28:35Come on.
00:28:37Oh no.
00:28:37Oh no.
00:28:37Oh no.
00:28:48God, what have I
00:28:56gotten myself into?
00:28:57Shh.
00:28:58Where the hell
00:28:59did they go?
00:29:01Check the back exit.
00:29:03Boss wants them
00:29:04swimming with the fishes.
00:29:06What are we going to do?
00:29:10We stay put.
00:29:13Are we going to die?
00:29:16We're not going to die
00:29:17but I need you to be quiet.
00:29:18This is not what I meant
00:29:21when I said I wanted
00:29:21to live in a different
00:29:22world.
00:29:23You hear that?
00:29:25You hear what?
00:29:26I swear I heard
00:29:27something.
00:29:28My God,
00:29:29we are totally
00:29:29going to die.
00:29:30I don't need you
00:29:31to call on the desk.
00:29:31There's so much
00:29:32I haven't done.
00:29:33You're going to
00:29:33give us away.
00:29:34All I've ever wanted
00:29:34is love.
00:29:35Is that too much
00:29:35to ask for?
00:29:46Yeah, I kind of
00:29:47sworn I heard
00:29:48something.
00:29:49They must have
00:29:49gone through the alley
00:29:50at the back exit.
00:29:51Come on, let's go.
00:29:52I think they left.
00:30:06Are you okay?
00:30:17Yeah, I must have
00:30:17cut myself somewhere.
00:30:21Let's go.
00:30:21Let's go.
00:30:34Don't we help?
00:30:38Let's go.
00:30:38Should I do it myself?
00:31:08Do you think I'll need stitches?
00:31:38No. Nothing compared to a bullet wound.
00:31:43You've been shot?
00:31:47Once, yeah. I was 16.
00:31:50Oh my god. You were so young.
00:31:55It's the world I live in. It's my best friend.
00:32:00He made a deal with the enemy.
00:32:04Had to dig the bullet out myself.
00:32:06Is that because it's the manly thing to do?
00:32:12I would no one help you because you're so rude.
00:32:17Is that a smile I see on Eddie Giovanni?
00:32:21It appears so.
00:32:22Why didn't you take Luca's offer?
00:32:30You could have had everything you wanted.
00:32:40Not everything.
00:32:41Not everything.
00:32:52Oh, is this a bad time?
00:33:03Vivian, I hope I'm not interrupting something.
00:33:06No, not at all.
00:33:08How are you feeling?
00:33:10Are you Eddie Giovanni?
00:33:13Yes.
00:33:13You're the one who's going to become the boss of your family when you marry a Romano.
00:33:18Shouldn't you know these things already?
00:33:20Well, I had to get that information from your servants.
00:33:24Are you feeling all right?
00:33:26Can't you see I'm talking to Eddie right now?
00:33:28What are you doing?
00:33:45What's best for both our families?
00:33:47Vivian, what are you talking about?
00:33:49I'll marry you, Eddie.
00:33:51What?
00:33:51You don't need to marry my sister out of some misguided sense of duty.
00:33:56Let's just seal the deal, here and now.
00:33:59I'm a Romano too, am I not?
00:34:02Circumstances have changed.
00:34:03Oh, come on.
00:34:04You're not marrying for love.
00:34:06We all know that this is just for show.
00:34:10Oh.
00:34:11Don't worry about my sister.
00:34:13I'm willing to sacrifice myself for her happiness.
00:34:16I'm ready to be the wife that you didn't want, but...
00:34:19the wife you need.
00:34:21What do you say, hon?
00:34:22I'm ready to be the wife that you didn't want, but...
00:34:25Vivian, can I have a word with you?
00:34:35Excuse us for a moment, hon.
00:34:43What was that?
00:34:44That?
00:34:46That was how you get a man.
00:34:49I totally had him in the bag, too.
00:34:52God, why do you always have to get in my way?
00:34:53Who are you?
00:34:59It's only been a few hours and you've already forgotten me?
00:35:02Sis?
00:35:08Vivian Turner.
00:35:13Vivian Turner.
00:35:14How did you get here?
00:35:16It's all your fault.
00:35:17You traveled, too?
00:35:20If it wasn't for you, I would have never hit my head and ended up in this shithole.
00:35:25You tried to kill me!
00:35:28I was only trying to discipline you on behalf of your dead mommy.
00:35:32If you don't like falling, you should have had stronger ankles.
00:35:36God, stop playing the victim all the time.
00:35:39You are the devil.
00:35:41What did you just call me?
00:35:42Did you just slap me?
00:35:52Why?
00:35:53You want another one?
00:35:56There's three things you should know about me.
00:36:02One.
00:36:03I survived an ambush with real-life mobsters.
00:36:06You don't intimidate me.
00:36:08Bitch!
00:36:08This is 1924.
00:36:14If you're found dead in a ditch somewhere, no one's going to bat an eye.
00:36:18And last but not least,
00:36:22I am the sole full-blooded heir to the Romano family.
00:36:27You're just half.
00:36:32Who's the bastard now?
00:36:34No.
00:36:38Where are you going?
00:36:52I have some potential business partners to meet.
00:36:55Look, we don't have to decide about our marriage right now, but...
00:37:00Our partnership shouldn't have to wait.
00:37:03At the pre-negotiated price?
00:37:06No price.
00:37:06I want to restore my family's legacy, and...
00:37:11I need your help to do that.
00:37:13Together, we will take down Luca Trevino.
00:37:28What?
00:37:29You started to like your soul.
00:37:31Do.
00:37:37Do.
00:37:48We're going to do business together.
00:37:50We need to try our whiskey.
00:37:57Have a spare glass?
00:37:58I've heard of you alone right now.
00:38:03I understand.
00:38:04Everyone in your family wants Eddie to be the next Don,
00:38:06even though you're the oldest brother.
00:38:09Did they send you here to mock me?
00:38:12I know what it's like to see your younger sibling having more than you,
00:38:15even when they don't deserve it.
00:38:18How would you like to take back what's supposed to be yours?
00:38:20Yes.
00:38:20Yes.
00:38:28What should we drink to?
00:38:32New ventures.
00:38:41I'm actually starting to believe you're not Lila Romano.
00:38:45At least not the one I was going to marry.
00:38:48Why?
00:38:48She was a vulture.
00:38:52This town is full of people like her.
00:38:56And what about me?
00:38:58What am I like?
00:39:05You're unlike any woman I've ever seen.
00:39:06So, I've always wondered,
00:39:15why aren't bootleggers called bootleggers?
00:39:19You really want to know?
00:39:21Yeah.
00:39:23School me, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:24Okay.
00:39:24Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:25Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:25Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:26Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:27Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:28Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:29Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:30Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:31Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:32Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:33Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:34Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:35Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:36Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:37Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:38Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:39Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:40Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:41Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:42Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:43Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:44Thank you, Mr. Giovanni.
00:39:45That's why.
00:40:11Why are you looking at me like that?
00:40:13I can stop.
00:40:15Don't.
00:40:38The glass.
00:40:40Screw the glass.
00:40:45Don't.
00:40:46The glass.
00:40:47Don't.
00:40:48Do.
00:40:49Do.
00:40:51Do.

00:41:52Transcription by CastingWords
00:42:23Good morning, Ms. Ramona
00:42:24Morning, Mr. Giovanni
00:42:28How'd you sleep?
00:42:33Barely had me
00:42:34What's wrong?
00:42:40We're about to enter war with Luca Trevino
00:42:43Being associated with me will put you in danger
00:42:49Are you worried he'll come after me?
00:42:52How can I not be?
00:42:54I mean, it's not like he hasn't tried to kill us already
00:42:57It's a child's plan compared to what he'll do
00:43:01That's how I lost my mom
00:43:05I'm only ten
00:43:08But that's what they'll do
00:43:11They'll go after the ones you care about first
00:43:14That's your weakness
00:43:17I am not going to be your weakness, Eddie
00:43:21We'll do this together
00:43:24Luca Trevino is moving on our territories
00:43:39And he's moving fast
00:43:41We need a solid plan to counteract
00:43:43Do we have to fight?
00:43:45Is Truce not an option?
00:43:48Why would he settle for last when he has the power to take everything?
00:43:52If we want the Giovanni name to mean something
00:43:54We need to fight
00:43:55What do you have in mind?
00:44:04What about an export deal with someone out of state?
00:44:09Stupid girl
00:44:09This is not the time to try and make money
00:44:11It's a necessary time
00:44:13Luca Trevino is scaring business in town
00:44:16Someone out of state might be more willing to deal
00:44:18Cash allows us to hire more men
00:44:20And if I ever look at Trevino
00:44:22I try to steal or destroy all of your boos
00:44:25This way you can offload some of your boos
00:44:27My connection in Chicago
00:44:31Can help us set up a deal with the biggest mob there
00:44:33That was brilliant, Ms. Romano
00:44:39Why don't we do that?
00:44:45I don't care what it takes
00:44:46I won't let her have the last laugh
00:44:49What do you want, Vivian?
00:45:02Eddie called
00:45:02He wants you to meet him at that address tonight
00:45:04Tonight?
00:45:07Why didn't he tell me?
00:45:09I don't know
00:45:10Don't all mobsters like to have, like, last-minute meetings?
00:45:15What do you really want, Vivian?
00:45:16I'm only trying to help you, dear sister
00:45:20Seeing you at the meeting earlier today
00:45:23Made me realize how much of a fool I've been
00:45:24Your talent is going to bring us great success
00:45:28I'm not falling for your tricks
00:45:31Look, you don't have to trust me
00:45:34But your dear Eddie is going to be waiting up all night tonight
00:45:37For a partner who can't even show up on time
00:45:40Eddie?
00:46:01Eddie?
00:46:03Good to see you again
00:46:04I'm surprised the two of you managed to get out of the speakeasy
00:46:09Why?
00:46:11It wasn't hard
00:46:12Quick, aren't you little fox?
00:46:18Now
00:46:18Tell me everything I want to know about Eddie's operations
00:46:23I don't know any of it
00:46:25You know a liar when I see one
00:46:28So don't take me for a fool
00:46:31There's a lull in the Giovanni family, isn't there?
00:46:36This location is supposed to be a secret
00:46:38Last chance
00:46:40Tell me about the operations
00:46:44Or I'll do something to you very...
00:46:48Unholy
00:46:49Screw yourself
00:46:52Well
00:46:56I'll certainly enjoy this more than you will
00:47:00Let her go
00:47:03Eddie
00:47:09You've got some nerve
00:47:21You want to play the white knight
00:47:23Don't get hasty
00:47:28It's all business
00:47:30No
00:47:35You made it personal
00:47:37Eddie
00:47:51They've destroyed our supplies
00:48:04They've destroyed our supplies
00:48:11What are we supposed to do?
00:48:15You hurt?
00:48:17Most of your supply got destroyed the day before the delivery
00:48:20And you're asking if I'm hurt?
00:48:22Yes
00:48:23Are you hurt?
00:48:25No
00:48:26I'm fine
00:48:26Good
00:48:28Now we can worry about the Chicago deal
00:48:31Luca knows about the deal
00:48:33And he also knows that if we fail to deliver
00:48:36The Chicago mob is going to come after us
00:48:38Call his boss and the lie
00:48:40No, we'd lose all credibility
00:48:41You got a better idea?
00:48:46As a matter of fact
00:48:50This is where Luca keeps his stash
00:48:54How'd you know about this?
00:49:03Found this at my house
00:49:04It's a list of all the contacts the Romanos have accumulated over the years
00:49:07Made a few calls
00:49:09And someone who knew sold me the address
00:49:11Just like that?
00:49:13You know, the name Romano works even better than I'd imagine
00:49:16Looks like Wild Boo's in Chicago after all
00:49:23What do I do with the rest?
00:49:28Is it called in here?
00:49:29A-M-I-D-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O-R-O
00:50:59Vivian?
00:51:03What the hell?
00:51:09Miss Romano, what are you doing here?
00:51:11This is the Giovanni house.
00:51:12Yeah, I learned to knock.
00:51:14Well, I can't say I'm surprised, but really, in Eddie's room?
00:51:17I do it wherever I want.
00:51:19Yeah, we're not breaking the law, are we?
00:51:21Shut up, you American Pie villain.
00:51:24What does that mean?
00:51:26Don't speak to me that way.
00:51:28I'm your fucking sister.
00:51:29What?
00:51:32Eddie and I were ambushed by Luca Trevino tonight.
00:51:35I suspect you two are the moles.
00:51:37That is a wild accusation, Miss Romano.
00:51:46This isn't like one of your little books, Lila.
00:51:49This is real life.
00:51:50Do you have any evidence?
00:51:52Our two families are united by a friendly bond.
00:51:55But if you want to accuse me of something as grave as treachery without being able to prove it, the consequences can be severe.
00:52:01Hear that, Lila?
00:52:02It's not too late.
00:52:03You can still apologize and maybe we'll still let you go free.
00:52:06Oh, how generous of you.
00:52:08You think this is funny, Miss Romano?
00:52:11Admit your faults, or you will regret it.
00:52:14I promise you.
00:52:15I think it's very funny watching two rats trying to dig themselves out of trouble.
00:52:20That's it.
00:52:21I have tried being the bigger person, but you just never learn.
00:52:25This is why nobody fucking loves you.
00:52:27That's enough.
00:52:29You want proof?
00:52:31I have proof.
00:52:32Eddie, look at you.
00:52:39You look great.
00:52:40Can't say I'm totally surprised, Nikki.
00:52:42But in my room?
00:52:44You said you have proof, Eddie.
00:52:45What proof?
00:52:46I don't think you are the moles.
00:52:48That's not possible.
00:52:50We've been here the whole time, haven't we, Nikki?
00:52:52That's right.
00:52:53I respect you, brother.
00:52:55I'm not going to let some outsider come in here and accuse me of something that I would never do.
00:53:00I went to the phone company, Nikki.
00:53:01I paid them a fortune to trace all the calls made to Luca Trevino.
00:53:05Turns out, the only call made in the past few hours came from the phone.
00:53:09No one will.
00:53:10You would do that to your own sibling?
00:53:13You are a shame to the work of gentlemen.
00:53:16So what?
00:53:17Anyone could have gone in my room and made that call.
00:53:20You going to let her talk to me like that?
00:53:22Me?
00:53:23Your older brother?
00:53:24Being loud doesn't make you right.
00:53:27You are a traitor to your family.
00:53:29Liar!
00:53:29Liar!
00:53:31You crossed two lines, brother.
00:53:38One, you turned your back on your family.
00:53:42Two, you tried to hit my woman.
00:53:46Now, I'm not going to exile you from the family because you're my brother.
00:53:51But you're going to stay in your little corner, be a good boy, and stay out of my fucking way.
00:53:56This is not possible.
00:54:07How could anyone want you over me?
00:54:09You're just a worthless piece of trash.
00:54:12Ha!
00:54:13No more fishy business, Vivian.
00:54:14I promise you, or I promise you, you will regret it.
00:54:20My woman?
00:54:29Just came out.
00:54:30Considering leaving the family, Lila.
00:54:45Leaving the family?
00:54:47Leaving the family business.
00:54:49Nikki's out of the running, that's for sure.
00:54:54You're guaranteed head of the family.
00:54:56Isn't that what you wanted?
00:54:58Yeah.
00:54:59That was my dream growing up.
00:55:02Then why quit?
00:55:06Is it because of what happened today?
00:55:07Yes.
00:55:11I'm not a scared man, Lila.
00:55:15I've lived my entire life on a knife's edge, and I never even flinched.
00:55:20But earlier tonight, the thought that you could have gotten hurt scared the hell out of me.
00:55:27Oh, Eddie.
00:55:28I'm terrified of losing you, Lila.
00:55:32And fear makes a man weak.
00:55:33Okay.
00:55:37But love makes a man strong.
00:55:43I love you.
00:55:45I love you, too.
00:55:58You know this war is only going to get worse.
00:56:00I know.
00:56:01The storm is coming.
00:56:03Let it.
00:56:04You have my back.
00:56:05I have yours.
00:56:12That's all I need.
00:56:25You're late.
00:56:30You failed to deliver.
00:56:32You were supposed to kill her.
00:56:33Look at you.
00:56:39You want your brother killed.
00:56:42And you want your sister dead.
00:56:45What a family, eh?
00:56:47Enough with the jokes.
00:56:49We're moving on to the next stage of the plan.
00:56:51The father was a great man.
00:57:01Thank you, son.
00:57:03As you all know, our leader, the great Don Giovanni, passed away in the hospital this morning.
00:57:10Unfortunately, there's no time to mourn.
00:57:16We're at war with Luca Trevino.
00:57:18And we need a new leader.
00:57:20Normally, we'd cast a vote if we didn't already know who to vote for.
00:57:25That seems unnecessary.
00:57:27I'm proud to announce our new leader, the Don Eddie Giovanni.
00:57:35Thank you, son.
00:57:37I object.
00:57:40What is this, Nicky?
00:57:48I'm still part of the family, am I not?
00:57:50My vote still counts.
00:57:52You never learn, do you, Vivian?
00:57:54Learning is for losers like you, which I'm not.
00:57:57First, you try to get me killed.
00:57:59What do you want now?
00:58:01The great Don Giovanni started this family.
00:58:03May he rest in peace.
00:58:07And as his oldest son, I will not sit back and watch you and this broad destroy his legacy.
00:58:13How dare you say that?
00:58:15You accused me of treachery, did you not?
00:58:17Well, guess who called the associate of Luca Trevino a few days ago?
00:58:26That was to find the location of Luca's stash of booze.
00:58:29Oh, that's not what you told me.
00:58:33You colluded with Luca, hoping to have Eddie killed.
00:58:36He promised you half of everything.
00:58:38And guess what I found in your top drawer?
00:58:42A handwritten agreement with Luca Trevino.
00:58:46That's a lie.
00:58:47Admit it, sister.
00:58:49You told me you were doing it for family.
00:58:50I know I promised I'd keep your secret, but I just can't have this weighing on my conscience any longer.
00:58:59Seems as though the tables have turned again.
00:59:02Huh, sister?
00:59:05Do not believe these two liars.
00:59:08This is a setup.
00:59:09They're the ones including Luca Trevino.
00:59:11And how do you plan to prove that?
00:59:13And you'll have to do it today.
00:59:15We don't want you to spend all day forging new evidence.
00:59:18There's no place for you in this family, Lila.
00:59:21I despise you.
00:59:33Vivian, you are such a moron.
00:59:35What did you just say?
00:59:37If Luca wrote this letter yesterday,
00:59:39why is the ink still wet?
00:59:45And why would I hide it in my drawer?
00:59:47Was I trying to get caught?
00:59:50What would you have done?
00:59:52Burnt it.
00:59:55I would have burnt it, too.
00:59:58If Luca really wrote this letter, it proves that you were with him this morning.
01:00:05Well, that was just a silly little joke.
01:00:09Just trying to see if you're still sharp, sister.
01:00:12Well, congratulations.
01:00:13I always, I knew you could do it.
01:00:21I shall run this family with Miss Lila Romano.
01:00:24If anyone objects to that, speak now or forever hold your peace.
01:00:36Thank you, sister.
01:00:43You killed her.
01:00:50I'm going on to change.
01:00:52I'll be back.
01:00:53I'll take it.
01:00:55But I'd like to reopen the discussion about her marriage.
01:00:59I thought you couldn't stand me, Mr. Giovanni.
01:01:02If I can't stand, then you must be on top of me.
01:01:14I'll be back.
01:01:32What's this supposed to mean?
01:01:39It means those bullets are coming for you.
01:01:47How did you know where I live?
01:01:52You must have done something so despicable that your own sister hates you so much.
01:01:58What can I say?
01:01:59Peter's going to hate.
01:02:02The first time I met you, you were scared shitless.
01:02:06Now look at you.
01:02:07The eyes of a gangster.
01:02:10I'm not going to give you any information if that's what you're here for.
01:02:13Oh, no.
01:02:15I'm here for you.
01:02:20Come work for me.
01:02:22And I'll give you everything you ask for.
01:02:25Then why would I do that?
01:02:26Because I have all the power.
01:02:29Isn't that what you see in Eddie Giovanni, anyway?
01:02:38You know, I've seen a lot of women in my days.
01:02:43But none quite like you.
01:02:47How touching.
01:02:48Oh, I haven't even started yet.
01:02:55What do you say?
01:02:57Go fuck yourself.
01:03:00See, the rest of your beauty was as hard as your mouth.
01:03:05What?
01:03:05Not make another move.
01:03:14Don't you dare look up.
01:03:17I thought you were a proper gangster, Eddie.
01:03:20Now look at you.
01:03:22Losing your temper over a woman.
01:03:23If she so much as loses a single strand of hair off her head,
01:03:29I'll break every bone in her body.
01:03:31Is that a threat, Eddie?
01:03:35Drop the gun.
01:03:36Put those on behind your back.
01:03:40Or I'll shoot her in the face.
01:03:42Don't listen to him, Eddie.
01:03:43I'll shoot her in the face.
01:03:53It's going to be fine, Lila.
01:04:02No!
01:04:09You fucking bastard!
01:04:10I'd shoot you.
01:04:16But I guess it'd be more fun letting you watch each other die while I set the house on fire.
01:04:22Just like you did my warehouse.
01:04:32Goodbye, slave to love.
01:04:35I'm here.
01:04:44I'm here.
01:04:45We need to stop the bleeding.
01:04:49I have an idea.
01:04:52What?
01:04:53The bullet hasn't gone too deep.
01:04:58Use your mouth.
01:05:05Hurry, we're running out of time.
01:05:14This has got to hurt.
01:05:15This has got to hurt.
01:05:35You thought I was going there.
01:05:58You're not going anywhere.
01:06:00You're mine.
01:06:05Oh, God damn it.
01:06:21Come on, Lila.
01:06:28Let's get you out of here.
01:06:28Let's get you out of here.
01:06:35Eddie.
01:06:50Thank God you're awake.
01:07:00Have you been taking care of me all night?
01:07:02I wouldn't have trusted anybody else.
01:07:08Plus, I think the entire town thinks we were killed in that fire.
01:07:12My house burnt down?
01:07:14We'll build a new one.
01:07:17I'd love it.
01:07:22I found this...
01:07:26after the fire.
01:07:27I found this...
01:07:28after the fire.
01:07:32Any plan for the payback?
01:07:39Oh, yeah.
01:07:49This wouldn't have worked without your help.
01:07:53Vivian, your willingness to sacrifice your own sister...
01:07:56I'm a deaf sister.
01:07:57Never liked that bitch.
01:08:00Fair.
01:08:01It was your idea to set the family house on fire.
01:08:04Trapping them inside.
01:08:06Thank you for that.
01:08:08As long as I get a new house.
01:08:11Into you, Nikki.
01:08:14I know a power-hungry man when I see one.
01:08:18You're not afraid to kill your own blood for your own ambition.
01:08:22Of course.
01:08:22As long as I get to be in charge.
01:08:26To the new Don of the Giovanni family.
01:08:29And the new head of the Romano family.
01:08:33And to the new master of the city.
01:08:36We're gonna make a lot of money together.
01:08:42Will you count me in on that?
01:08:47Will you count me in on that?
01:08:48Yeah.
01:08:52Daddy, you're safe.
01:08:57You're not my brother anymore, Nikki.
01:09:00I've paid the police a fortune to keep you behind bars for the rest of your life.
01:09:04How are you not dead?
01:09:15There were no other exits in that house.
01:09:17You know, the thing about probation houses is that there's always another secret exit.
01:09:23You wouldn't know that if you read more books.
01:09:26Ugh!
01:09:30Take them away.
01:09:31Okay.
01:09:34I'll make you an offer.
01:09:48What do you say, by the way?
01:09:55Come on.
01:09:56We can work this out.
01:10:00Oh.
01:10:02Please.
01:10:03Hey.
01:10:04I'll give you Boston.
01:10:06Philly.
01:10:07What about Philly?
01:10:24Don Giovanni.
01:10:30Don Giovanni.
01:10:30I'll see you guys outside for the party.
01:10:39Should I kiss the ring, too?
01:10:42If you wish to vow for eternal loyalty.
01:10:45Seems a bit grand for a bootlegger, don't you think?
01:10:48We own the country now.
01:10:50What more do you want?
01:10:53You know what I want.
01:10:53Okay.
01:11:00Skip the party and go to my room?
01:11:13Skip the party and go to my room?
01:11:23Spoken like a true gentleman.
01:11:25See you next time.
01:11:25I'll see you next time.
01:11:32I'll see you in bed.
01:11:35Pooegan jumps.
01:11:36See you next time.
01:11:37Okay.
01:11:41I've got a number of books for money.
