in this film the role of Jaime will be played by Dug

Mothers are like that.

( A bit of a smile, extremely amused. ) I like the sound of your mom.

( it's a difficult thing. After so long, talking to others about their parents is easier than thinking about hers. She knows for a fact, though, that Franco Bertinelli would have died before letting his daughter go on as a vigilante, that her targeting of the families that he was the leader of would not have been remotely acceptable. And her mother, she doesn't know; Maria Bertinelli had lived her life in fear, especially for her children. She wonders, sometimes, what her life would have been if her parents had lived; if she would have been married off to Tony Angelo or some other mobster's son, political alliances in the same way her mother had been married to the Bertinellis. She wonders if her brother would have made it out, if her father really would have ever thought her anything more than just a daughter, if she would have wound up a leader of the families rather than their destruction.

She's fairly sure she'd never have been able to become a teacher, at any rate, and she sips her wine. )


I'm impressed. ( That he managed to get them to be cool with it. And a little concerned that they're cool with it, but maybe it's more complicated than that. Jaime does seem exceptionally laid back, himself. Less damaged than so many of them, hopefully less isolated. ) Do they understand all the implications of what we do?

( The risks, the fall out. )
