Summary
The day Frank Columbo met Eugenio Franchitti was a day blessed by God: God and all the real angels and saints, specifically Adjutor, Philip Neri, and Barbara. The war was going full swing; on the beach there were the leftovers, the women and boys and girls, and the oldest Franchitti kids who hadn’t shipped overseas, Geno and Cecilia, first cousins. Frank hadn’t noticed ’em at first, either of ’em, the tall and lanky boy and girl with skin like gold and eyelashes like fringed velvet burlesque fans, physical traits the magazines said you could shell out for but the Franchitti kids had ’em in spades all natural; but once he had he couldn’t stop noticin'.

Summary
It's not the best move to burst into his office first thing the next morning and demand, "You're royalty?" with probably a little too much glee in her voice, but Liz couldn't care less. This motherfucker has a coat of arms.
Finn startles so badly he almost falls out of his chair, eyes wide for a moment before settling into their normal squinty belligerence. "The correct term is 'aristocrat,'" he says. "And how did you not know this? It's hardly a secret." He still looks shifty, though. More than his usual, default shifty.
"Because the minute you weirdos start talking about dukes and duchesses, I feel like I'm trapped in a shitty off-Broadway production of The Lion In Winter."
