I don't own of the Bakers mentioned in this fan fic.

Chapter 3: NY State Of Mind

At Frank and Marie's house, Vinny is telling Robert, Amy. Frank and Marie how much he misses New York.

"I hate Chicago." Vinny told them.

"Why?" Robert asked him.

"First of all I'm a Detriot Lions fan." Vinny told him.

"The Lions suck." Frank said to him.

"Just wait until next year." Vinny told him.

"Now, you sound like a New York Mets fan." Robert said to him.

"I hate the Mets." Vinny said to him.

"Frontrunner." Robert said to him.

"All because I'm a Yankees fan I'm automatically a frontrunner?" Vinny asked him.

"That's right." Robert replied.

"It ain't my fault they were in the playoffs every year for the past ten years. And won four World Series in that spand." Vinny said to him.

"What happened the last time they were in a World Series?" Robert asked him.

"They lost." Vinny replied with a scowl.

"Exactlly. The Yankees are losers." Robert replied to him.

"It's twenty six World Series to two." Vinny told him.

"It's character that makes a team not championships." Robert said to him.

"Keep telling yourself that Robert and maybe the Mets will have enough character to actually be over .500 after the Allstar game." Vinny told him.

"The Mets are going to be unstoppable this year." Robert told him.

"Enough sports talk." Marie told them.

"All right Aunt Marie." Vinny said to her.

"Hey Ma where are the cookies you made for Vinny's arrival." Robert asked her.

"They're in the kitchen Robbie. I'll go get them." Marie said as she went to go get them.

She walks into the kitchen and sees an empty plate with crumbs on it.

"Frank!" Marie yelled from inside the kitchen.

"You know not to leave your double chocolate chip cookies unguarded with me around. They were asking for it." Frank told her as she came back into the livingroom.

"Frank those cookies were for everybody." Marie told him.

"It ain't my fault those slowpokes weren't fast enough." Frank told her.

"It's all right Aunt Marie I wasn't really that hungry anyway." Vinny told her.

"Are you sick?" Marie asked him.

"No, I ate before I left Chicago." Vinny told her.

"Now, I know your sick since you ate your wife's cooking." Marie told him.

"She didn't cook what I ate. I cooked it." Vinny told her.

"You need to eat you look so thin." Marie told him.

"Aunt Marie I weight 245 pounds. I'm not thin." Vinny told her.

"I'll go heat up some baked ziti from last night." Marie told him.

"I ate it all the baked ziti late last night." Frank told her.

"Frank what didn't you eat in that fridge?" Marie asked him.

"The cake that Debra made." Frank told her.

"I'm not going to give that horrid cake to Vinny. You want it Robbie?" Marie asked him.

"That's all right Ma. You can give that cake back to Raymond." Robert told her.

"Yeah, Aunt Marie give it back to Ray." Vinny said to her.

"I'll just throw it out." Marie said to them.

"Maybe, Champsky will eat it?" Amy asked her.

"He wouldn't eat Debra's cooking. The last time he did he licked his ass to get the taste of his mouth." Robert replied.

"Then he licked Ray on the lips." Vinny said with a laugh.

"Yeah, that was funny." Robert then said with a laugh.

"What's it like to live across the street from Lorraine's nine younger brothers and sisters?" Amy asked him.

"Six of her nine younger brothers and sisters are all right. But, the other three are pissing me off. They really annoy me. Especially Jake and Sarah they always find a way to cause trouble for me. And the other one Mike is sometimes a pain but, not all the time. I mean he treats me like I'm one of his older brothers and I treat him like he's my younger brother." Vinny explained.

"That's so sweet that you treat her brother Mike like your younger brother." Amy said to him.

"I'm a nice guy." Vinny said to her.

"Sure you are Vinny." Robert said to him with a smirk.

"All right I'm a nice guy to people I like. And I'm a jerk to people I hate." Vinny said to him.

"Then why do you hate Raymond?" Marie asked him.

"I don't like Raymond." Vinny replied.

"How could someone not like Raymond?" Marie then asked him.

"A few people don't like Raymond, Ma." Robert told her.

"Who are these boys? I'll call their mothers." Marie said to him.

"Calm down Aunt Marie." Vinny told her.

"I need to cook something now." Marie said to them as she went into the kitchen to cook something.

"Marie make some pork chops with apple sauce!" Frank yelled to her from his chair.

Vinny just shakes his head at his uncle's comment.
