Cooking the Books part 1:

Louie: Boss said to come and “lend you a hand”, and I assume he meant literally. *opens duffel bag*
Mendoza: Eech, no, I meant figurately.
Louie: Oh man! Now what am I gonna do with this severed hand? *thoughtfully rubs his chin with severed hand*
Legs: I told you we should have brought cannolis instead. It would have been a much better icebreaker.
Louie: Okay, okay, just lend me a shovel an’ forget about it.
Mendoza: Now, do you have the merchandise?
Louie: Perhaps. You got the money?
Mendoza: Not yet. But this town looks so soft I bet I won’t even need a weapon to acquire it.
Louie: Sounds good. Just steer clear of any raccoons you see. They’re a real menace in this city. They got those scary masks and everything.

• Make Mendoza Try Weaponless Crime – 4 hours
• Make Louie Watch for Raccoons – 4 hours

Reward: 100 $$s, 10 XP

Cooking the Books part 2:

Mendoza: Now that I’ve got an influx of cash, it’s time to begin recruiting new henchmen. Any chance you’re interested in joining my operation?
Louie: Sorry, but me and Fat Tony are tight. He drove me and Frankie The Squealer to the airport.
Mendoza: That is a true friend.
Louie: Yeah — and he helped me throw that lousy snitch into the airplane propeller.
Mendoza: I suppose I’ll have to begin recruitment with entry-level positions.
Legs: I’d recommend the Springfield Penitentiary. They’ve got some great candidates ready to start on the ground floor. And even lower. A few of them are already tunneling under the gate.
Mendoza: And how do I arrange the interviews?
Legs: Just tell them you’re part of our work release program. They give you candidates for “work” if you “release” the guards some cash.

• Make Legs Vouch for Mendoza – 4 hours
• Make Mendoza Recruit Evil Henchmen – 4 hours

Mendoza: I’m impressed. This town has no shortage of hardened criminals.
Louie: Yeah, incarceration is one of this town’s most lucrative exports.
Mendoza: Any particular reason why?
Louie: Springfield has the highest prison population in the country. They need guys to make all of those “Bort” license plates.

Reward: 100 $$s, 10 XP

Cooking the Books part 3:

Fat Tony: Greetings, Mendoza. I trust my associates have been helpful?
Mendoza: Most certainly. Now, shall we get onto the business of shady business?
Fat Tony: Whoa, whoa. Slow down, will ya? I am Italian, after all. I never talk about “this thing of ours” without a plate of “this baked ziti of ours”.
Mendoza: I was wondering why we were meeting at Luigi’s. This seems like a very public place to discuss criminal enterprises.
Fat Tony: Yes, but the ziti here is to die for. Isn’t that right, Luigi?
Luigi: It’s a very good, yes, and there’s a plenty to go around. No need to hurt any of the cooks this time.
Fat Tony: Yes, it would be a shame if you made the pasta too “al dente”, then I will be forced to yank out their “dentes”.
Luigi: That’s a spicy threat.

• Make Mendoza Enjoy the Baked Ziti – 4 hours
• Make Fat Tony Enjoy the Baked Ziti – 4 hours

Fat Tony: So, we are in agreement. You get the north side, while I get the south, yes?
Mendoza: And in exchange, you’ll have access to my international cartel.
Fat Tony: Which includes your tricked-out cigarette boat named after your sister who you have a creepy relationship with?
Mendoza: Uhh, yes. But more importantly we control politicians and police forces around the globe.
Fat Tony: That’s great, but when you’ve been around as long as I have, power starts to get old, so now I’m trying my hand at fine dining.
Mendoza: Perhaps Springfield was not the best location to expand to after all…
