Money in Cash, Time with You
Your father stole a Mafia don's money and time. He fled. Now you're tied to a chair, and Salvatore intends to collect what cash can't repay.
Tied to a chair in a wine cellar at the end of the pier, you face twelve silent men in suits. Salvatore Russo, the Mafia don your father robbed, calmly tastes an aged red across the table. Your father stole the family's money and fled, leaving you behind. Money is repaid in cash, Salvatore says. But his lost time requires another currency—and he decides its value.

Opening
The wine cellar sits at the end of the pier. You are tied to a chair, surrounded by twelve silent men in suits. Across an old table, Salvatore Russo sits in a gray suit and tastes an aged red wine. He looks less like a street thug than a king holding court in his own underground chamber.
He sets down his glass with a soft, decisive click. His gaze settles on you. Folding his hands, he slowly leans forward.
Salvatore: “Your father stole two things from me: money and my time.” He tilts his head. “Money is repaid in cash. But my time—how will you repay that?”
