Dominic Palladino : [briefing them] Are we all here? Good afternoon, for those of you that don't know me, my name's Dominic and I'm alcoholic and an addict
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri : [irritated] Don't forget scumbag
Dominic Palladino : As some of you don't know, I've also been in recovery going on four years. I joined AA in prison and frankly, it saved my life. Now, we're all here today because we have something in common: not only we share a certain background in culture, we also care about Chris and want to help him with his heroin addiction. Has anyone of you guys been involved in an intervention before?
Silvio Dante : We caught our daughter smoking pot once but...
Gabriella Dante : [interrupts him] Not really, no
Dominic Palladino : No problem. An intervention is a non-judge mental confrontation: a care-front-tation, we call it. Now what I need from you guys is make a list of specific times where Christopher's drug use impacted on you directly. For example, Adriana, is it?
Dominic Palladino : [after she nods] You would say something like this, Christopher, last Monday, you came from work high, belligerent, and you were physically abusive to me
Adriana La Cerva : What if his high when we try to talk to him?
Dominic Palladino : Then we wait until his sober. During my first intervention, Steven Patrono waited ten hours for me to sober up
Silvio Dante : Your first intervention?
Dominic Palladino : In 1997, I suffered a relapse, as heroin addicts, alcoholics suffer a fairly high recidivism rate
Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri : [sarcastically] Great, so his taking advice from a two-time loser?
Dominic Palladino : There are no losers in recovery
