"Ok, we have one day until we bust this ring, does everyone know what they're doing?" Liv rushed into the meeting with the whole squad.
"Yeah, Rollins 'n I got out front." Fin swiveled in his chair, to face the direction Liv was walking in.
"I'll be inside, with the glasses, and I won't be carrying." Carisi turned to the middle of the big table. "And Liv, you are in the van."
She shook her head and held up her hand. "There is no way in Hell that you are going in unarmed. And Rollins, you got an unmarked car, right?"
The younger woman rolled her eyes. "Yes. I just..." she stood. "Why is Carisi going in alone? I won't be able to tell if he is okay. This whole thing makes me nervous." She leaned on the table, waiting for Liv's response.
"I understand, but I will be watching, and if anything goes wrong, you and Fin will be right there. We are all nervous. Let's go over the whole plan." She sat down, and shot Rollins a look, causing her to shrink down into her chair.
"Ok, so Ima go in, and hang out, then wait, and gather some evidence. I'll take a few laps around, then I'll create a scene-"
"But not to big a scene..." Rollins interrupted Carisi. "Just enough to disrupt the party, but try don't have them draw their guns. And no more then 2 drinks."
"Yeah... but what kind of party is this? Will he have to go to a back room with a kid?" Fin was obviously just trying to break through some tension.
"I don't know, and neither does Tony. That is why Carisi is going to play by ear, and he knows the drill." They all looked at Sonny, who was a slightly shade of red as he shook his head. "And what did we learn about Juliano?"
"He has been in and out of Rikers for drug dealing, possession, assault, the whole thing. He's one bad dude." Fin leaned in his chair, and sighed. "And that's just one of them. There could be anyone at that house tomorrow."
Sonny surveyed the room, hoping to gather evidence for this case. This wasn't like any of the parties he had ever been too. Carisi had to ask the madam for a "turn" and she gave him a number. While he waited for his number to be called, he could drink, talk, or eat.
Carisi didn't fit in compared to the other shorter men. Most of the men had the same amount of muscle as Sonny, and he could easily take them down, but the security was different. Dominick's blonde hair and pale face made ot difficult for him to get in past the armed guards. Most of the security was extremely muscular, and they all had at least one handgun.
"109..." The woman called out.
Sonny stood, suddenly very nervous. "That's me." He called out, drawing the woman closer to him.
"Oh, ok. Are you sure this is what you want, I mean, you're a grown man now, you can have anything." The woman grabbed his tie and twisted it, gently pulling herself closer to him. The woman was young, and pretty, but no less a monster. Her deep red lips grew close to Sonny's ear. "Anything." She repeated and bit Carisi's ear, causing him to push her slightly away.
"Boris!" She cried out. "This man is touching me!" She cried out, causing Carisi to take multiple steps backwards.
"I did nothing of the sort!" He shot back, watching a large man sneak behind the madam. "Ya know what, I'm done! I'm leaving!" Sonny yelled out, realizing that he was greatly outnumbered and these men could easily beat him into a pulp before Rollins and Fin had a chance to get in.
"No, stay a while, please." The man said. His smooth voice was a perfect distraction, allowing someone to sneak behind Carisi and pull both of his arms tightly behind his back.
"Now how about we teach you some manners." The man stepped in front of the woman, and smiled. He looked around. "How about we do this somewhere else, we don't want to interrupt the... party." The man behind Carisi pushed him forward, causing him to almost fall.
After climbing a flight of stairs, the man directed Sonny into a bedroom and pushed him on the bed, releasing his hands. The other man came in and shut the door.
"What did you do to that woman?" He started to slowly pace in front of Carisi.
"Nothin' man! I swear! She came onto me." Sonny was nervous, and you could hear it in his shaky voice.
"Look, I believe you, but boss won't, ya know. So lemme ruff you up a bit, and we can all forget about this. Sound good?" The man smiled again and stopped slightly to Carisi's left, and punched him.
Carisi's glasses were on the floor, broken. He was hit on his left temple, and then he was punched again, in the nose, causing it to gush blood.
"I get it!" Carisi yelled out, pinching his nose. Again. This time, in the stomach, causing him to throw up. The man drew back his arm once more but paused. There was a muffled sound coming from downstairs, and when the man opened the door, he look terrified.
"Run!" He called out to the other man. "Just jump out the window!" The man followed his orders and jumped, leaving Carisi and the man who had beaten him up.
"You're a cop, aren't you?" He sneared, and pulled his gun.
Carisi didn't answer, he didn't have time. The man drew back his gun, and slammed it into Carisi's face. He fell back onto the bed and passed out, as the man jumped out the window.
