Canaries Are Known For Singing

(Tiffany's, a bustling soul food restaurant. The Alfonsi's, Evelyn and Tomasso, sit at a cozy table with Ray and Alesha, enjoying a lively conversation and delicious food.)

"So, Alesha, we're so grateful for what you've done for us. Getting Evelyn off from those charges quickly and swiftly. I see it's an reason why you are so well-revered." Tommaso says.
"It was my pleasure, Tomasso. I'm just glad I could help" Alesha replies

" After we left the courthouse, we forgot to thank you. That's our mistake. Hopefully this makes up for it." (she gestures to a briefcase on the table) We've got a little something for you, Alesha." Evelyn says
"Ah, what's this?" Ray questions

" Your payment, Alesha. Ten million dollars" Tommaso replies

" You sure? I don't charge this much. " Alesha says
" Very sure. Now we don't get in trouble much but having you as an asset and a friend would certainly help. " Tommaso agree
" Well I really appreciate it. And Evelyn can I have an word with you" Alesha says
" Sure , let's step outside " Evelyn replies

" Evelyn, can I ask you something? Alesha says as she gets inside The Alfonsi's car. Security opens the door for both of the women to sit in the backseat.

" Of course, Alesha! What is it?" Evelyn replies
" Do you guys kidnap people.?" Alesha asks
"Oh, Alesha,we do a little bit of everything. Don't tell me you brought me out here just to ask me that" Evelyn replies with an chuckle

" An friend of mine needs your service. " Alesha replies

" Patricia or do you call her Pat" Evelyn replies knowingly

" Yes but how did you know" Alesha replies with an small hint of fear in her voice
" Before I enter the room with anyone . I already know everything about them. You are no exception. I had to vent you and look you up. To make sure that you were the best choice. I had to know everything about you. " Evelyn replies simply

" Touchè I do the same thing with people. It's funny when someone does the same thing to you." Alesha replies

" Anyways , why does Patricia need my services?" Evelyn questions
" Her husband is cheating on her. And she needs you to kidnap his mistress. I don't know how she wants you guys to do that but I said I'll put her in touch with you too" Alesha replies
" Ok , we will do it. Give her my number. " Evelyn says before she and Alesha exit the car

Switching to the Cartel Office
"I want you to take care of my husband's car.. I want to send an message to him. " Pat says firmly

" How do you want that message. Slash the tires , bust the windows or You mean, like, torched? " Vinnie questions

"Percisely. I need you to torch it" Pat replied

" We can do that. How much are we talkin'? Marco , the other henchmen replied

" In this envelope, there is $5,000 dollars. That's $2.500 dollars for you each.
"Ok, give us the money and consider it done" Marco replies
" You will get the money when the job is done." Pat replies
" That's not what we said over the phone. We don't work without the money first. Kinda like an prostitute" Vinnie replies laughing
" Yeah , we not the type of people to stiff. It could end pretty bad for you." Marco replies
Pat pulls out 2 guns , one of each hand and points them both at the henchmen and begins to speak
" Listen. You too may be bigger than me but with an fucking bullet in the head and you will fall down the same like anyone else. Don't fuck with me. I'll call you and tell you when I want it done." Pat replied

" Yes ma'am" Vinnie replies
" Tony?" Pat questions as she requests one of the guards
" Please escort this two men out." Pat says to Tony
Pat hands them a photo of the car and the address before Tony escorts Vinnie and Marco.
