Irv tries to turn Rosalyn away, but she keeps turning back giving Edith the hairy eyeball, as Edith gives it right back.

ROSALYN ROSENFELD (CONT’D) I know who that is Irving.

Off to the side, Richie steels himself with bump of cocaine before walking inside the old resort, his eyes dilate.

CARMINE POLITO: So this is the lobby. Now mind you, a week ago this place was a mess, but what existed was this plasterwork. Look at the detail.

This is beautiful. My sons are craftsmen. (to son, Dominic) Please, tell them what you did.

DOLLY POLITO: Tell them everything you know. The trompe l'oeil.

DOMINIC POLITO: Birds, sky, clouds, wood. Trompe l'oeil -- "Trick of the eye." CARMINE POLITO: We can restore all of this, you see? You save 50 million -- look at me -- fifty million right off the bat -- I waive the law I helped write. It said casino construction must be ground up new, we don’t do new. We renovate.

DOLLY POLITO: We don’t do new. We renovate.

Carmine leads all of them through the very crowded lobby as he talks.

Irving listens intently, moved.
