it got to point that both Massino and Casso had thought to absorb what was left of the family.


The commission wanted to defunctionalize the family and let Lucchese take the remains. Massino got 'em out of it however.


The whole thing is how strong you are and how much power you got and how fucking mean you areā€”that's what makes you rise in the mob. Every day's a fucking struggle, because you don't know who's looking to knock you off, especially when you become a captain or boss. Every day, somebody's looking to dispose of you and take your position. You always got to be on your toes. Every fucking day is a scam day to keep your power and position."
