Ciao, my name is Don
Scorlieone. I am the head
of the Scorlieone Family.
Along with my closest
relatives I run a small family
business importing olive oil
from my grandmother’s farm
on the summit of Mt. Etna in
Sicily. I’d like to make you
an offer you cannot refuse…
Uh-Oh!
Its simple, all I’d like to do is to introduce you to my family and in
return I’d like you to introduce me to yours…
My oldest son is called ‘Grievance’ Gredo
he takes care of our Customer Complaints
Department. If we have any complaints
about our customers he makes sure they
know about it. My other son, ‘Nefarious’
Nick is in charge of family security.
This is my brother ‘Lotsa’ Luca,
he is our family accountant. He also takes
care of family donations to good causes
like orphanages, schools, churches, politicians,
law enforcement agencies, animal refuges, and old folks homes.

These are my parents, ‘Mama Mia’ Mary
and Papa Paulo. They started our family
business when they moved here from
Sicily and passed it on to me.
This is my daughter ‘Cartel’ Catherina.
Her marketing skills make sure we get a fair
price for our family’s products by taking care
of the competition. She is the brains of our
family and is going to take over from me when I retire.
This is my cousin ‘Loop-Hole’ Larry.
He looks after our family’s legal affairs.
In his most famous case the judge and jury
were all found guilty.
Now that you’ve met my
family I would consider it a
mark of personal respect if
you would introduce me to
yours…

doing.
