Chapter 3: A Nice Quiet Afternoon. (Yeah Right!)
After Lorraine walks out of the Baker house, Vinny sees she looked angry.
"Hey baby." Vinny said when Lorraine came across the street. "Hi." Lorraine said. "This is my wife Lorraine. Lorraine these are our new neighbors the Shenks." Vinny said introducing Lorraine to the Shenks. "We've met." Lorraine replied. "When?" Vinny asked. "When my family first moved here four years ago." she answered. Lorraine looks furious now. "Can I talk to you for a minute?" Lorraine asked grabbing Vinny's arm and taking him aside. "Like I have a choice." Vinny said sarcastically. "That woman is Tina Shenk." Lorraine told him. "I know." Vinny replied. "She hates my family." Lorraine then told him. "She's the one that tried to get your family kicked out of this neighborhood last year?" Vinny asked. "Yes." Lorraine said. "It can't be. She's too nice." Vinny told Lorraine. "To you." Lorraine replied. "Vinny we'll see you later." Tina said as she, Bill and Dylan went back to their house. "Bye." Vinny said trying to be polite. "Don't talk to her." Lorraine told him. Vinny's cell phone rings. "Hello? Hi Aunt Marie." Vinny said as he answered his phone. Lorraine rolled her eyes and went inside her and Vinny's house. "No, I'm not moving back to New York. Even if there was a house up for sale next door to you. Yes I'm fine. I know you did all you could to teach Lorraine how to cook. I got to go. Bye. No, I seriously have to go. Aunt Marie I have to go now. No, Lorraine is not standing right next to me. I know you warned me about her. I really have to go now. I'll talk to you later. Bye." Vinny said as he hung up his cell phone. "I swear that woman could talk my ear off at times. Now, I know why my Uncle Frank is always at The Lodge." Vinny said about his aunt.
Later that day Vinny and Lorraine are relaxing in their living room. Vinny hears something outside. "Oh no!" Vinny yelled as he looks out the window. "What is it?" Lorraine asked. "Your brothers and sisters are coming over here." Vinny replied as he locked the front door. "I'm going upstairs. You're starting to become crazy." Lorraine said as she was going upstairs. Vinny sees someone try to open his door. "It's locked!" Jake yells as he tried to open the door. "I guess we can go home now." Sarah said as she walked back to their house. After a few minutes Vinny looks out the window and sees no one out there. "Who you looking for?" someone asked Vinny. "My wife's brothers and sisters." Vinny replied. "Just look behind you." the voice said. Vinny turns around and sees Lorraine's brothers and sisters standing in his house. "How did you guys get in? I locked the front door." Vinny said in shock. "You forgot to lock the back door." Jake replied. "You really should lock your back door." Kim said. "People could just walk in here." Jessica said. "Thanks I'll remember that." Vinny replied. "How do you like Evanston so far?" Mike asked. "I hate it." Vinny replied. "Why?" Mark asked. "I'm a Lions fan and I live in Bear Country." Vinny answered. "What does that have to do with anything?" Kim asked. "Alot." Vinny answered. "Again, what does that have to do with anything?" Jessica now asked. "The Lions play in the NFC North and so do the Bears. I hate every team in the NFC North except for my Lions. I especially hate the Packers." Vinny again answered. " The Packers play in Green Bay not Chicago." Mike answered. "I know that." Vinny replied. "Dude enough talking about football." Jake said getting annoyed. "Football is my religion. I couldn't think of my life without football." Vinny told him. "What about Lorraine?" Kim asked. "Yeah, what about Lorraine?" Lorraine asked coming down the stairs. "You're the only thing in my life besides my car that's more important than football to me." Vinny replied. "What do you love more me or your car?" Lorraine asked. "I love you more." Vinny answered without hesitation.(Vinny's not dumb. He told Lorraine what she wanted to hear.) Lorraine looked at him amazed that he loved her more than his car. "I can't believe you said that?" Lorraine said in shock. Vinny just thought to himself 'Oh god. What did I do now?' "What do you mean by that dear?" Vinny asked calmly. "Dude you treat that car like it's your baby or something." Jake told him. "Well your sister is carrying my baby now." Vinny replied. "That's so sweet." Lorraine said. Vinny now thought to himself 'Smooth move Vinny. We might see some action tonight.'. Lorraine thought to herself 'He's not seeing any action tonight because he told me what I wanted to hear.'.
