  2. Take the boat at the south-west pier and stop the wise guy.

Salvatore’s call

Salvatore calls the payphone in Belleville: some wise guy has found out that the Sicilian mob are behind the Forelli-Sindacco feud, and the war suits the Leones fine. Take that blabbermouth out. Salvatore has left you a boat at the south-west pier.
