Roman looks out to a sea of people, most of whom had no idea how a podium had been assembled so quickly in the busy streets of Philadelphia.

Ladies and gentlemen, before we get to the news on Don Colin for this evening, allow me to preview it with several reviews he has received in his time on this earth:

"A stunning feat of nature." - Doctor who delivered him into the world, Danny Abramson, M.D.

"Amazing ability for colouring inside the lines." - First grade teacher, Jane Horowitz

"Unbelievable attention to male anatomy." - Fifth grade gym teacher, John Cantor

"Bombastic enthusiasm for the hula hoop." - High school principal, Abraham Edelstein

"Paul?  Incredible worker." - Co-worker on first job at the docks, Dick Chang

"*Jousting noise*" - Peer in 2nd job as mobster, YellowKnight

"Who?" - Fellow Godfather, Evangeline

"Seconded." - Father, Ronald Noriega 

Now that you've heard what people in his life have had to say, I imagine you're all wondering exactly why you're here.  Today of all days, Don Colin no longer exists.  Don't be alarmed, Darwinism hasn't taken hold of him just yet, by the skin of his teeth, I am proud to present to you here today...

My boy friend (note the space please), colleague, and man I respect most in this life... Hailing from Trexler Park, Pennsylvania, standing 6'10... GODFATHER COLIN "THE HURRICANE" NORIEGA!!!!!!

A light symphonic piece began to play as the crowd eagerly awaited for the new and exciting Godfather.

On hearing the news Clarence could not contain his joy, that could be seen by the state of his pants and he clapped furiously.

Fantastic words indeed godfather Roman, my word what a tremendous day it really has turned out to be.

Godfather Colin, I am humbled to be in your presence, well done is such an understatement.

Bloody well done!

Proceeds to leave swiftly to repair the pants he ripped on taking his hands from his pockets.

Heh, you all thought something else happened didn't you?, shame on you all!

"Such beautiful beautiful words. I'm delighted to see old Mrs Horowitz has made it to see this day."

Colin scribbles her name down in red and hands the note to his RHM.

"Thank you for these kind words and let me take a moment to thank everyone of the CB Inc. family. You all did me proud. You really did."

Colin starts to walk away but then turns..

"And Dick Chang you bastard! My name is Colin! COLIN! You'll remember that if I have to tattoo it onto your fucking chest!"

Demetrio notices the podium, he decides to walk in, he listens to Godfather Roman speech, once he finishes, Demetrio turned to Colin

Much love Roman. Colin deserved that prestigious rank because he works for it hard. Really, really hard.

Congratulations to the boyfriend of Roman, err I mean boy friend.

Upon hearing the light symphony begin Alyz couldn't help but sing.

God save our gracious Colin,Long live our noble Colin,God save the Colin:Send him victorious,Happy and glorious,Long to reign over us:God save the uh, Colin.O Lord, our God, arise,Scatter his enemies,And make them fall.Confound their politics,Frustrate their knavish tricks,On Thee our hopes we fix,God save us all.Thy choicest gifts in store,On he be pleased to pour;Long may he reign:May he defend our laws,And ever give us causeTo sing with heart and voiceGod save the... Colin!

When word reached me that Colin had reached the prestigious title of Godfather I had one thought:

"Great. Now my freezer is never going to defrost with hell having froze over and all."

Now that a few moments have passed since he took the reigns and I step outside into this beautiful, warm summer day it's clear that hell has not frozen over simply because Colin has reached Godfather. Most likely hell is ascending to take over the realm of Earth.

Congratulations Colin. You will make a fine Godfather...until the apocalypse takes firm hold and we all suffer in a pit of fire and brimstone.

Oh my dearest Colin, i am so happy to see you becoming a Godfather!!you really deserve it sir.

Hearing the great news, Eliaha jumps up and down, unaware of her fellow mafiosi looking at her with surprise, and gives Colin a proper and quite loud ovation. She then starts to speak.

Congratulations Colin!! I know you've been waiting for this for a long time, and it is more than utterly deserved.

I look forward to keeping on building Philadelphia by your side... Congrats again!!!

congrats Colin

Congrats Colin on such a high honor. Well deserved.

Spike smiles as Roman finishes his announcement and smokes a celebration cigar.  He then nods towards Godfather Colin's direction.

"Congrats, boss!  I can say without hesitation that you will do a great job as Godfather of Philly!"

Congrats Godfather. I know how hard you've worked lately to make that big step up and you truly deserve the recognition given to you today.

Long live Colin.

Sam Carollo steps out clapping and grinning.

It's not often you see your own Godfather so excited about the achievement of another, and only a fool would ignore it. May your reign be long and prosperous Godfather Colin. As your legions form up under you, may you find them as loyal and dedicated as Godfather Roman finds his.

Carollo raises his beer and steps back into the crowd.
