TONY
Unfortunately, he is pretty much
the highest authority.
MELFI
I think I see your problem.
TONY
Do you?
MELFI
Perhaps you should, "Render unto
Caesar the things which are
Caesar's..."
TONY
That sounds familiar. Where have I
heard that before?
MELFI
(grinning)
It's in your book.
TONY
Now my brain is on fire. What book?
What are you talking about?
MELFI
The Bible. I think it's in the
Book of Matthew.
TONY
My book?
(beat)
Ah, gotcha. The Jesus thing.
The atmosphere has relaxed a little with MELFI's joke.
MELFI
I mean to say that perhaps it would
be wise to work with this powerful
colleague to achieve a win-win
situation.
TONY
This guy is only interested in a
win situation. And that would be
his win, not mine or anybody
else's.
INT. OB/GYN OFFICE - DAY
BENNY FAZIO and his pregnant wife ANNABELLE are sitting in
waiting room. BENNY is talking on his cell phone.
BENNY
Chris, I know! I'll be there.
We're still waiting on this bitch
gyno to get here. Her fuckin'
Lexus broke down on the Turnpike.
(listening)
Yeah, I can see why he'd be pissed,
but please help him chill.
(listening and becoming
agitated)
OK, OK...what the fuck, man? My
unborn kid's health could be at
stake here. I'll get there when I
get there!
BENNY hangs up and shoves the cell phone into his pocket. He
sits back with a concerned look on his face.
ANNABELLE
What's wrong, babe?
BENNY
(evasive)
Nothing. I gotta get back to work
as soon as possible. They're
pissed at something.
ANNABELLE
(suddenly angry)
Yeah? Tell them to go fuck
themselves! My baby is more
important than any shit they need
you to do.
BENNY
(shocked)
What did you say? Listen to how
you talk. Why ain't you got no
class?
ANNABELLE
(now nervous)
I said--
BENNY
Shut the fuck up and pump out the
kid so I can get some pussy again,
for crissakes.
(to doctor's receptionist)
Tell your boss to call triple A and
get the fuck in here already!
EXT. MORTON'S COUNTRY INN - DAY
CARMELA pulls into the parking lot of the inn and finds a
parking space. She gets out and enters the inn.
INT. MORTON'S COUNTRY INN DINING ROOM - DAY
CARMELA enters the dining room and looks around. She spots a
blonde man seated at a table in a dark corner. Their eyes
meet and he nods to her. CARMELA approaches the table and
sits.
CARMELA
(nervous)
Jeff, how are you?
JEFF
I'm fine. Thanks for coming, Gina.
I've been looking forward to this
lunch for a long time.
CARMELA
So have I.
(beat)
What's good here?
JEFF doesn't answer, but stares at CARMELA with heat.
CARMELA (CONT'D)
(smiling)
Hello! Are you OK?
