‘You contemptible pig! I remained celibate for you. I stood at the
back of a cathedral, waiting, in celibacy, for you, with three hundred
friends and relatives in attendance. My uncle hired the best Romanian
caterers in the state. To obtain the seven limousines for the wedding
party, my father used up his last favor with Mad Pete Trullo. So for me,
for my mother, my grandmother, my father, my uncle, and for the
common good, I must now kill you, and your brother.’
‘YEEEEEEEEEEEEAH! Can I get an AMEN?’
