Act 1: Welcome to Jersey Shore
The scene opens over the beautiful Garden State. The sky was a bright blue, and the sun was giving its life giving light to the world. Birds flew against the clear blue sky, while the traffic on the 4 lane interstate moved quickly, going this way and that. The camera soon focuses on a black limo that is moving along with the rest of the traffic. The camera soon focuses on the inside where we find the Mafioso, heading toward the Jersey Turnpike turn off. They weren't far from home now. Just a couple more miles and they would be back to Jersey Shore. Joanne looks out the window letting her mind race with the news she had received before they had left Virginia. She had been thrown into a match against Julietta Lee and a new girl named Angel Kash, but Joanne knew she had the upper hand. They were in her home state, and she wouldn't lose, nor would she let her fans down.
Scarpaci: Only a few more miles until we get home.
Joanne just continues staring out the window, as the scenery goes by. The familiar sights were a welcome change to those that she didn't know. Jersey Shore could be seen below the interstate and it made Joanne smile. She was finally home.
Scarpaci: Sis are you in there?
Joanne snaps from her thoughts and smiles slightly.
Joanne: Yeah... Just thinkin' about the up comin' match this week.
Rude: How did you manage to get yourself into that match boss?
Joanne: I have no clue, but I'm not goin' to back down from it. Maybe they want me and Julietta to break in the new girl.
Reno: Or maybe they want to see how long she can stand against Julietta before you finish her off.
Joanne: Julietta is crazy if nothin' else, but she can hold her own in a match. I'll have to watch my back with her, and make sure she's not plannin' on puttin' a knife in it.
Rude: Or a dildo in your crack.
Joanne: Shut up!
Rude: You know she's a sex fiend...
Joanne: She's also a f***in' nut job.
Scarpaci: You know if she tries anything I'm willing to take one for the team.
Reno and Rude burst into laughter as Joanne holds back, snickering a little bit.
Joanne: Good idea. When Julietta comes at me, I'll put Scarpaci in front of me, and let her shove it straight up his ass instead.
Reno: Dude I didn't know you swung that way.
Rude: You think you know someone...
Scarpaci: F*** you guys.
Joanne: Don't be pissed off, we're just messin' with you. You know that. What do you guys say to stoppin' and gettin' somethin' to eat?
Rude: There's only one place to stop, and we're coming up on it now.
They turn off the main drag in Jersey Shore, and there in a strip mall was a rather large restaurant. The sign above the door read "SPEEDYS CHINESE AND PIZZA EMPORIUM". The limo stops in the parking lot and they get out of the car. The smell was heavenly, and it was something that Joanne had missed more than anything. The guys head toward the door with Joanne following behind, adjusting her suit jacket, and heads inside as the scene fades to black.
Act 2: Welcome to Speedys Chinese and Pizza Emporium.
The scene opens on Speedys, as Joanne and the boys walk through the front door. The bell above the door rings, as a chinese man in his late 40's emerges from the kitchen. This was the owner Speedy.
Speedy: Welcome to Speedys Chinese and Pizza Emporium. How may I help... Oh it's you. Where in the hell have you been?
Joanne: I've been in Italy for the last year. Didn't my brother tell you?
Speedy: No. He didn't tell me s***! We thought you were dead. But when he order, he order just for one.
Joanne looks at Scarpaci and sighs. He got greedy after she had left that much was obvious. Half of her men had left due to the fact they got paid less then if she had been in control, and now she had to find a whole new staff.
Rude: That's why most of them left. So what's up Speedy?
Speedy: Nothing much. Just trying to figure out how to put youngest daughter through college... Now that you're back I don't have to worry.
Joanne just smiles as they sit in a booth by the window.
Joanne: Just give us the usual order please.
Speedy: You know how long that take?
Joanne: It's just the four of us, so only a quarter of what we usually get then.
Speedy just nods, and walks back into the kitchen going off in Chinese, as Joanne leans back in the seat and stretches.
Joanne: It's good to be back.
Reno: Yeah it is. At least you have the home town advantage this week for your match.
Joanne: Yeah I know. I'm goin' to make sure that I win my match this week. I don't care what it takes but I'll brin' both of them down.
Rude: You haven't faced anyone like Julietta before boss...
Joanne: I know that, but I'm not scared of her. Sure she's a mental case but that doesn't matter to me. She's taken down a few people so what? That just means she has talent and skill, but I'm just a little bit better. I mean look at what I did to Maria last week... and then at Tara Fenix two weeks before that. I'm not goin' to stop until I get that Women's title around my waist, and I'm standin' on the top of the fed once again. If that means I have to take out a few people in the process then so be it. Julietta is just another steppin' stone to get to my rightful place.
Scarpaci: You know she does remind of someone that we know... I just can't place it.
Reno: Catalina perhaps?
Scarpaci: I knew it! She has a sister... Or at least a crazy ass twin...
Joanne: I doubt that. As for my other opponent this... Angel Kash, she has a Goddess complex like someone else in the fed. I wonder how Cleopatra is goin' to like the competition? Angel will learn her place fast around her, after I'm done with her. She thinks that she can come in here, and treat everyone like she's better then we are? She better think again. I'll make her regret ever comin' to the NCW! That pretty little face of hers won't be the same when I'm done with her.
Rude: That's for damn sure. I mean when you get in the ring, you just want to kick everyone's asses.
Reno: Maria didn't know what hit her on Saturday night. That was a great match boss.
Joanne: Yeah it was. I'll be back in a sec.
She slides out of the booth and heads down a small hallway towards the bathrooms. She walks in and walks to the sinks, and turns the water on splashing her face a bit. It was getting warm and she needed some air.
Joanne: Julietta, I've heard and seen what you can do to an opponent, but that still doesn't scare me. I've seen worse in my life, and I'm not goin' to let some crazed b*** stop me from winnin' this match. You may be tough but I'm a lot tougher, and will not back down when the blood starts to flow. Not mine of course but yours. So bring everythin' you have to the ring on Friday night Julietta, and see how long you can stand against me. You see when you face me it's not how can I beat her, it's how long can I survive against her.
She looks into the mirror as her dark eyes shimmer in the bright lights. She pushes back a piece of her long hair from her face and removes the suit jacket revealing the black tank top underneath. The summer heat was coming on strong and it wouldn't be long before they were putting out the lounge furniture around the pool once more, and enjoying the long summer nights by the dim lights of the pool. Joanne pulls her hair back away from her face, and puts into a ponytail before leaning against the sink.
Joanne: To Angel I just have one thin' to say. Bring it on! If you think you can stand against me then by all means meet me in the middle of that ring on Friday night, and we'll see how long you last against someone like me. Julietta in her own right is talented, and can handle her own, but me, I'm just a little bit better then she is, and a hell of a lot better than you. You see I've faced someone like you before and I beat her ass all over that ring. Do you know why? She was full of herself and underestimated me, and what I could do in the ring. On Friday night bring that pretty little face to the ring, and see why I'm called the Jersey Devil Diva. Like the creature of Legend I am feared, and when they say my name it is whispered, out of fear and respect for me. Of course what do you know of respect? Friday night, I WILL teach you respect, and remember, we are the Mafioso, we get paid to kick your ass! See you soon.
She heads back out of the bathroom and down the same hallway, seeing Speedy, carrying a rather large tray in front of him. She smiles and heads back to the table, where everything was being set out. She sits back down as the last bit of food was placed on the table, and grabs a set of chopsticks and digs in.
Reno: I never did ask you about that guy you were talking to the other day before Suspense?
Joanne: That was James Davis. Speakin' of which, I was kind of hopin' to talk to him after his match but didn't get a chance. I wanted to congratulate him on a job well done...
Reno and Rude look at each other and just smile. Time passes by and a few boxes sit on the table. There was plenty left, and it wouldn't go to waste. Joanne gets up from where she sits and pays Speedy leaving a rather large wad of bills on the table before walking out with the guys following behind.
Reno: When we pick him... how do you want to do it?
Rude: The only true way there is... Gangland style.
Gangland style... The best way of doing anything. We'll take the boss and Scarpaci back to the house and then we'll go.
Rude: Right. Let's go.
The plan had been set, and Reno and Rude were going to follow through with it. Joanne sits in the back seat, leaning back into the soft black leather interior, as the limo takes off towards the Canelli estate as the scene fades to black.
