5:45 pm Office in the Maglione Grand Casino.

       Darius sits at his desk puffing a Cuban cigar. Some poor loser just lost 25 large and now has a "loan arrangement" with him. He gets a knock to see Bruno his head of security enter "boss there's a Mr Trabotti and a Mr Gambino here to see you?" Darius raises his hand "bring em in Bruno thanks! everything still good?" Bruno escorts them chuckling "yep so easy old doll is offering services to make up her losses." Darius laughed "That's Mabel make sure she don't do anything in the can or other spots or she and her hook up are barred"                           Nicki_Trabotti and Carlo Gambino were good friends of Darius Maglione and they taught each other everything they knew and learned about life in a crime family.

"Nicki! Carlo!" Darius gives quick embraces and a kiss on their cheek. "Grab a seat and park it I got a bit of a problem. 

Darius pours them each a glass of scotch and hands them a Partaga which normally he NEVER shares​​.

"See I had a contract with Nicholas Ozer"ansky I would provide him workers for that multi unit apartment complex they are building on 9th street in the Bronx provided that A.: only my boys no outside people work this job and B: I get a percentage off it."

  Darius' face turned angry "son of a bitch hired an extra crew and claimed I didn't send the amount of guys agreed upon so the deal is off"

"I ain't taking that off of that slimy rat. But when I confronted him he told me to leave or make a phone call to a Lieutenant in the force to investigate this place and my other businesses here in NY along with Phily and Detroit.

"He's gonna regret double crossing me. how shall he pay is the question. Maglione looks at them as he downs his Canadian Whiskey

Nicki look up and grinned. I know just the way to hit these entreprenours. I can set up some accidents on some of his other building sites. Make him see that things can go real wrong real fast if he dont play by the rules.

Once a few guys got hurt from falling from "faulty" scaffolds and some of his materials fail to arrive on time. Then he should be easier to talk to.

I have just the guys to make this happen.

"excellent work Carlo. I can't wait to see what he does"Darius  smirks

3 days later- Maglione Grand Casino NY:  "Police! Open up!" Yells a booming voice before the door gets kicked in and 3 uniformed police officers walk in guns drawn.

Maglione puts his hands up  and replies calmly "officers..whats going on? I've done nothing but suckered some gamblers out if their hard earned cash. can we talk about this.?"  all while seeing the nane "LT.Oliver"on the first officers badge. Lieutenant Oliver nods to the others to leave "I got this boys stand guard in case I need you"

They leave closing the door and Darius offers a light to Oliver who withdraws a Lucky Strike Cigarette and put it to his lip

​​"I see you had a visitor Lieutenant and you are here to consider my..generous offer" Oliver nods speaking in a low voice. "You know Benny Martinez? I um owe him big! He threatened to kill my family if I put him or any of my boys put the squeeze on him. I...can't chance that my wife and little girl are my world it's why I risk my life doin this job"

Darius nods "yep I know Mr Martinez  he's not afraid to cut off a few fingers, break almost every bone in your body with a smile on his face or make you dissappear under ground or water. that wouid be terrible if you met any of those fates"

Oliver gulps and nods "so..you will...pay him off and I leave you be and I'll tell Ozeransky I got nothing on you and won't come up with anything if I do need to investigate any activities you do against him?"

Darius nods "see? I knew you would understand my view. By the way you mentioned family does Nicholas got any?"

Oliver sheepishly says "yeah a daughter who loves boys with money and wants to hit the big screen in LA. I think Nick said she's working fir Top Job Studios or something...she's just doing this until the old man kicks the bucket and get a big inheritance including the construction company."

Darius slaps Oliver on the back and nudges him to the door "Yes sir Officer Oliver ill keep everything clean I don't want this to he a weekly visit" Darius booms loud enough so the officers outside hear.

Darius sits back in his desk picking up the phone. "Top Job Studios Janet speaking how can I help you?" Darius replies "Tell the boss man Maglione wants to speak to him. he..owes me a favour"

 two minutes laterA gruff voice comes on "Darius Maglione! to what do I owe the pleasure?" Darius grins coyly "Dynamite..kid..listen ya got this doll named Stella Ozeransky that's yous just hired right?" I need her..taken care of.."

Dynamite thought for a bit and then remembered a beautiful yet work-in-progress actress, somewhere in her early twenties.

"Yeah," Dynamite said, "Blonde, brown eyes...I know who you're talking about."

@DariusMaglione's carefully placed pause told Dynamite exactly the kind of business that needed to be done.

"Do you want me to take her on a nice evening to the docks, maybe do some fishing?" Dynamite asked.

"No," Darius said, "Just keep her company somewhere...secure. I want to do a surprise party for her father who is a...business associate of mine. Give me a call once you have her. If you can do this, I'll pay you well for the job."

"Consider it done," Dynamite said, hanging up. He got up from his desk at the Paramount and went to his safe. He grabbed a duffel bag full of rope and tape, and grabbed his pistol.

He went back to the phone and called to his talent manager, Rosie, at Top Job Studios.

"Rosie," Dynamite said, "Have that new actress Stella Ozeransky meet me in my office there at the studio in an hour."

Dynamite hung up and went on his way to the studio.

Smoking a cigar in his office at Top Job Studios, he sat and awaited Stella's arrival. He was accompanied by his Lead Bodyguard, Boom. He had told Boom of the plan, that they would talk for a little bit, then take her on an "extended studio tour". Dynamite had an abandoned set that was set with soundproofing and away from the other active sets. 

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Dynamite and Boom looked up to see a lady with wavy blonde hair, flawless skin and slightly under six feet in height. Dynamite thought, "Damn, if he wasn't doing this job, he'd probably refer her to one of the auditions because she looks made for Hollywood as an actress." Nevertheless, he had work to do.

"Ms...Ozeransky?" Dynamite asked.

"Yes that's me," she replied, confidently and with a slight note of seduction.

"Please have a seat," Dynamite said, motioning her toward one of the sofas. "This is my associate, Boom, who helps me out with my day-to-day operations."

She looked at Boom and nodded before sitting down.

"How are you finding things here at the Studio?" Dynamite asked.

"It's all so new to me, but I've come here to try and make it big," she said. "I've been doing some rehearsals for the sitcom but haven't been able to see the whole studio yet."

Dynamite gave a quick glance to Boom with a slight smirk, then looked back at Stella.

"How about we do a full tour of the studio?" Dynamite suggested. "In fact, we can show you one of our sets currently being constructed."

Dynamite got up as Stella nodded her head. They all went out of the office, through the lobby and to the parking lot to Dynamite's Rolls Royce. Off they went, via the perimeter street inside the studio grounds. They pulled up to a big warehouse with a sign in front that said "Studio 21". Upon walking inside, Dynamite turned on the light and revealed the set which was set in for an old western movie. It looked like a small town where you can see the typical saloon, town hall, general store and a few other unnamed buildings. Stella was in awe of actually being on a movie set. While she was fascinated and mesmerized by the new experience, Boom shut and locked the door, duct tape and rope in the other hand.

"Sorry Stella," Dynamite said, Boom approaching Stella. "Your dad pissed off some very powerful people and you're going to be staying with us for a bit. And don't even try to scream because no one will hear you."

Dynamite returned to his studio office and called Darius, who picked up after two rings.

"I treated our VIP to spa day, so she is in good hands until you give the go ahead to pick her up," Dynamite said.

"Thank you for the update," Darius replied before hanging up.

Dynamite was in the studio with Stella who was tied up and a gag to cover her mouth. The phone rang and Dynamite knew exactly who it was. Showtime!

"Ozeransky?" Dynamite asked, gruffly. 

"Yeah, who's this?" Ozeransky asked, confused and already pissed off.

"Depends how much you're going to cooperate with Mr. Maglione...if you continue to disrespect him, I'm going to make sure your daughter Stella suffers a slow and painful death," Dynamite said to him, without a quiver in his voice. He pulled the gag out of her mouth and she began to scream.

"Help me!"

"You fucking bastard!" Ozeransky yelled to Dynamite over the phone. "You had better not hurt her!"

"Then give Maglione what he wants and we won't have a problem," Dynamite said, hanging up the phone.

As soon as the line was cut, Stella and Dynamite began to laugh. In the past few days, Stella spoke of how her father was always a cheater and hated the way he treated her mother. The only reason she stayed in his life was because she was after his money. Stella and Dynamite spoke of a plan to have him meet an untimely demise when the time came ready so that way he can get a small cut of the fortune while she walked out rich. But that was a plan for a later time, they would keep in touch.
