A very intriguing episode of the television program titled “Murder, She Wrote” that was networked on CBS Television and ran from 1984-1996, with Made For Television Movies that followed in 1997, 2000, 2001; and in 2003.
I find the remonstrant behavior of a young Mafioso by the name of Carmine Abruzzi disturbing, especially when Carmine (portrayed by actress Cynthia Bain) intentionally bumps into one of the hostesses employed by Dr. Seth Haslett’s (portrayed by actor William Windom) favorite restaurant in Boston, calls this hostess a ‘jerk’; freely sits down at the table of her choosing, and demands that the young waitress employed by the restaurant gives Carmine Abruzzi the most expensive champagne the restaurant has on their alcoholic beverage menu, no ifs, ands, or buts; whilst the young waitress is giving Carmine a dirty look. Carmine sternly and loudly reminds the young waitress to not give her the look, otherwise Carmine herself will dump the champagne all over the waitress’s work uniform. Angela Lansbury’s character Jessica Fletcher and actor William Windom’s character Dr. Seth Haslett-who are seated at the very next table to the left of where this Italian-American gal by the name of Carmine Abruzzi is freely sitting; are in a state of shock and awe over this remonstrant girl’s behavior, and are thinking to themselves “what gives this gal the right to storm on in, remonstrate to both the hostess and the waitress; and sit at the table of her choosing. What could possibly be going on with this gal?”
Spoiler alert: my thoughts on this episode can be summed up by this picture:

If he tells them all about his friends, they’ll put him in witness protection so his “friends” can’t find him but Carmine won’t talk to no foot soldiers. He’ll talk to the boss or no deal, so they take him down to the parking garage to transport him to the FBI office. Before they get to the car, a couple of goons jump them, knock the FBI guys unconcious and hustle Carmine into a waiting limo that speeds away.
Life Lesson #61 – Nothing good ever happens in a parking garage. Except perhaps gaining valuable information about exposing a…
