Step with the Evil Shirts on <> suave spokesperson.
Besides, Step strikes me as someone who's honest and trustworthy. We can't have someone like that representing the Family! Perish the thought! We need a smooth talker, an exaggerator, a liar. Think Pat Robertson or Tony Snow.

But he's a student. You can't put "hard-working" next to a student!.

Well, you see, that disqualifies you immediately. The consigliere's job is to be the polite face that makes the offers. The weaponry guys only come out when that fails. Plus you don't look like Robert Duvall (Unlike me.
)
Tell you what, you can be Luca Brasi. Don't make any long-term plans.

I cannot believe that I'm now picturing you as a cat sitting on a toilet reading a newspaper. Jelena is also inextricably becoming Garbo despite my certain knowledge she doesn''t quite look like that (apart from the whole casual elegance part. She's got that bit down)

Also, breaking the sternum, by kicking it or other various method, can stop the heart. That's one of the manuevers that I appreciate immensely.

For a man that knows so much about weaponry you show a surprising lack of need for any.
