Mrs. Frisbee is questing! Episode 1/25

Mrs. Frisbee interviews for a job as a shop assistant. "I never knew I was interviewing for a job with the Mafia!" she said. "I'm leaving!"
"Wait!" said Don Corimmicci. "Don't go! I want to go legit!"
"He really does!" said Bessio, his trusted adviser.

A Mafia Don needs a heart of stone. But Don Corimmicci's heart is wooden. Frank Piglioni has sent him an eraser - a threat to rub him out! Bessio recommended Retail Therapy; use a shop as a front for a protection racket to pay off Frank, then go legit selling honest goods as fast as possible.

Mrs. Frisbee looks at Don Corimmicci. He looks so scared and pitiful. Maybe she can help this failed crook go legit. "OK, but I come as a package with my close friend, Bluey Pursoni!"

"What kind of a friend is a purse?" scoffs Bessio.
"He's my financial advisor!" says Mrs. Frisbee. "Let's see whether he can help you."
"This is a hard time to start a shop," said Bluey. "Many have gone out of business due to the virus. To go legit in 2021, you need a cash cow."
"How do we know we can trust you?" asks Don Corimmicci.
"My clips are sealed," Bluey replies.

"Here's the latest," says Kit. "The Nissan QashQow. It's an ATM."
"Automated Teller Machine?"
"No, All-Terrain Moocow. You can use them on polished floors, carpets, tiles, anything."

"About a hundred pounds of grass," says Kit.

"Naw, she's been gettin' advice from some guy called Bluey Personi!" says Frank. "A real tough guy in mob finance. I'd better accept his terms."

"NOW what do we do?" asks Don Corimmicci. "We got the shop, but we never thought what we would sell!"
"Doesn't matter," says Bessio. "As long as people come in and out a lot, it's good cover."
"Then sell things you want yourself," says Mrs. Frisbee. "How about clothes made from really great fabrics?"
"How'd you know I'm always itchy?" asks the Don.
"It's written all over your desk," says Mrs. Frisbee. "On your name board."

Here's the deal," Don Corimmicci tells Mrs. Frisbee. "You take the GM, you pump the cow's tail, she makes FnC, you give them to the marks."
"Marks are only good in Germany," says Mrs. Frisbee.
"No, the marks - er, the gamblers," says Don Corimmicci.
"What does the house skim off?" asks Mrs. Frisbee.
"I dunno," says Corimmicci. "What's usual to skim when cows are involved?"
"Hmm, 2% sounds good to me," says Mrs. Frisbee. "Semi skimmed."
"These guys are robbing themselves!" says the QashQow.
"Just be sure to feed her grass," says the Don.
"Do I get to drink the milk?" asks Mrs. Frisbee.

Scaredy Cat daren't look.
"I resent that!" says Officer K-9.
"I'll go quietly," says Corimmicci.

"How's things?" asks feared mob enforcer Vincenzo Brasi.
"Terrible," says the Don. "So far I have accidentally gotten myself two legitimate businesses before I even start a protection racket."
"I thought you were going straight?" says Brasi.
"Yeah, but I gotta look like a tough guy until I've paid off Frank Piglioni," says the Don. "That's why I hired you. Hey, you dumb Mutt, you've got that uniform on inside out!"

"You mean I now run three legitimate businesses and I can't get busted for anything?" asks the Don.

"Well since you put it like that, I believe you!" laughs Mrs. Frisbee.
"Here's 20 GM, you've deserved it," says Bessio.
