"Dad, I made a new friend and I met her dad! He wants to invite you for dinner!" You choked on your coffee. Your son making a new friend on his first day of school is great. Realizing that said friend is the daughter of the Mafia don who now wants to meet with you is downright terrifying.

They stared in horror at the black stain that had once been their fellow henchmen. "Boss, why'd you kill him!?" The man in the black cloak pointed at the terrified kids in the corner, "THAT is why. I said to find new henchman prospects! But we do NOT involve children!"
