"Call up the locksmith,
Tell him we need him quick
We’ve got a million keys,
None of them seem to fit
While you’re on the phone,
call up the clocksmith,
Cuz I could use some time,
Even the slightest bit
Let me open up and start again,
And break this safe around my heart
I don’t know how to let you in,
And that’s what keeps us apart
And that’s why I need time
I said I need you"

- Jay: -muffled- Hello?!
- Al: Jay Merit?
- Jay: -laughing heard from the background- Shut up, alright?! I can't hear! -the voices die down and he clears his throat- Who's asking?
- Al: Al Motta. Your fa-
- Jay: Pops! How is everything in sunny Cincinnati? How's the wife?
- Al: Enough with the nonsense jabbering, Jay. I've talked to my daughter. I know you went and asked her for money.
- Jay: Ole Sugar? We're great pals! You didn't tell me the future face of Chicago was such a damn /spitfire/.
- Al: You'd be surprised of your similarities, but in the end..you're nothing like her. My Sugar wouldn't /dare/ degrade herself as much as asking a total stranger for a dime.
- Jay: Well...-clears his throat- I suppose Big Sis has a /lot/ to learn from me. She's going to help me out. Told me herself! It's not coming straight from your banking account, but she's still helping me. Are you /sure/ she's your daughter?
- Al: After this..you leave her alone. She doesn't need someone stalking her every move waiting for her to leave her wallet out of reach.
- Jay: That's a damn shame. Then who'd be around to pick it up for her?
- Al: I mean it, Jay.
- Jay: And what are /you/ going to do about it, Mister CEO? How'd you even get my number??
- -end call-
nickyduval:
Yup. My parents have been taking care of her for me.
That’s really awesome of them. Cas right? It’s been forever since I’ve seen her.

- Sugar: Why the /hell/ did you not even think to inform me that I have a /brother/?!
- Al: ..Sugarbee? Is that /anyway/ to talk to your fa-
- Sugar: I could care LESS right now! Daddy, you lied to me! You told me the break-in to your house was random!
- Al: It /was/ random. I'd never met him until that day. What was I supposed to do? I knew he'd be going for you next. I'd only hoped he hadn't found what he was looking for.
- Sugar: Yeah well, I guess he did. I came home from New York to him waiting on my doorstep!
- Al: Listen, sweetheart-
- Sugar: I didn't give him any money, Daddy. I'm /not stupid/. I have been living by myself for a /long time/ and I learned a thing or two. I did offer to try and get him a job.
- Al: Now Sugar-
- Sugar: I may not /want/ to know him, but family still means something to me. Remember me? Your daughter? I would have liked a heads up that my apparently existing asshole of a little brother was coming to bum me for money!
- Al: ....he's got a wild tongue, doesn't he?
- Sugar: God, he's /such/ an prick! With the sarcasm and the..weird change of words to make them his own. He gets under your skin!
- Al: Sounds a bit familiar..
- Sugar: Yeah, he sounds like /you/.
- Al: And /you/. He looks like your mother.
- Sugar: Funny, he said the same thing about me.
- Al: Only you've got a bigger heart. -muffled voices heard in the background- Listen, Sugardarling, I have to go. Keep me informed and /don't/ give him any money. Do you understand?
- Sugar: As always.
