Ep 18. The One that Got Away

Vinnie's mother, Carlotta, returns suddenly from Italy, convinced that her son is about to be married. After she unexpectedly meets Amber at Vinnie's house, Carlotta decides that she is not the one for her son and presses Vinnie to drop her immediately. Carlotta's husband, Aiuppo, persuades her to give Amber a chance. Worried that, as Vinnie's stepfather, their relationship might be misinterpreted by his Mafia family, Aiuppo declares to his mob associates that while Vinnie is under his protection, he is not getting involved in family business. Seeing his connection with Aiuppo as an opening, McPike presses Vinnie to exploit the relationship in order to get inside Aiuppo's family. Maid that it would hurt his mother and jeopardize his relationship with Amber, Vinnie resists.
