`` You gon na give me the money, ya bastard?'' Joey asked waving the hammer threateningly. He was still fairly new to the mob work, but hell did he love it. 
 
 `` I told you, I ca n't. You've asked for more and more money each month. I'll go out of business if I pay any more!'' said the poor man being held in a chair by Joey's associates. 
 
 `` Well, alright. Do n't say I did n't give you a chance...'' Joey said with a shrug. Truth be told, this part made him nervous, he had never had to do THIS before. Usually enough bluster and intimidation worked. 
 
 Joey swung the hammer down into the poor man's knee with all of his might. 
 
 `` Ow! Oh... wow. I mean that hurt and all... But wow... That was a little underwhelming'' the man said hesitantly 
 
 Joey's associates snickered at his inadequacy. 
 
 `` Shut up!'' He yelled. `` I'm still new to this alright.'' 
 
 `` Oh deary... It's alright. We all mess up from time to time! You just hit him in the wrong spot, is all!'' 
 
 Joey turned to look and standing in the doorway was an elderly woman. She was wearing a red hat and a purple dress. 
 
 `` What in the hell lady? I'd turn around if I were you.'' Joey said, thoroughly confused. 
 
 `` Oh now... Did n't anyone ever teach you not to swear in front of a lady!?'' The old woman gasped as she walked towards the man in the chair. 
 
 `` Right, now watch what I do.'' The woman said as she grabbed the hammer. `` Just. like. *This*.'' She said sweetly as she swung the hammer down with a sickening crack and the man's agonized cry. 
 
 `` There we are! Right as rain!'' The old woman said in a singsong voice, giving Joey both the hammer and a wink as she walked past. All he could do was stare, mouth agape.
