The first example coming to mind is when the kleptomaniac Jack Licavoli became boss of Cleveland while everybody expected Lonardo to be chosen. But then, maybe Scalish did in fact want Lonardo to step up, Milton Rockman allegedly lied to be able to place a "puppet" on the "throne", since he couldn't become boss himself, with no Italian blood. What I don't get is why did the whole family hierarchy allow Rockman to be alone with Scalish in such an important moment, when he was dying and naming a successor? Or did Scalish ask so himself, not expecting Rockman would "cheat"?
Willie Marfeo to Henry Tameleo:
1) "You people want a loaf of bread and you throw the crumbs back. Well, fuck you. I ain't closing down."
2) "Get out of here, old man. Go tell Raymond to go shit in his hat. We're not giving you anything."
