Angelo scoffs "What other option do you have?"

"Mama can do it. Or the twins"

"Your husband will murder them before they even touch you" he's right. Dante will kill them and I'm trying to have a wedding without dead bodies anywhere near the church. So it's either him or Mama. I love her, I do but I'd rather Angelo do it.
