When he discovers a box belonging to Vinnie's brother, Peter Terranova, the Monsignor from the parish delivers it to Vinnie. Among the items it contains, Vinnie discovers a gun belonging to his father, John, and a journal he kept chronicling his involvement with a local mob crew. Vinnie reads of his father's dissatisfaction with his life and wanting to do more for his wife and kids. Realizing his life is going nowhere, John approaches two friends, Angelo and Nick, and is invited to discuss working with a neighborhood Mafia crew. Vinnie reads about John's attraction to Teresa Dimonte, a girl from the neighborhood involved with Sam Roselli, a restaurant owner and mobster. Encouraged by Teresa, John takes up running numbers while working his bakery delivery route. However, when he finds Sam beating Teresa, John attacks Roselli. Warned his life is in danger for assaulting the mobster, John is encouraged by his friends to leave the country. Unwilling to run, he stays but starts carrying a gun for protection.
