Frank, Tommy and others in “Unfinished Business”

Frank

Let me ask you fine gentlemen, which of these congressional candidates look like you?

Tommy

That's a gay Latino man and a semi-hot black woman, Frank.

Frank

Exactly. American men used to control everything. Look at a history book. We used to be the leading men. Now, we're marginalized. I attended a congressional debate this afternoon, and you know what I experienced? Reverse racism. It's all diverse gays and vaginas now. The tide is changing, gentlemen, and it's changing too damn fast, am I right? [Bar patrons chatter]

Frank

Give me a beer. I'll tell you something else. They're trying to take the Old Blue Brewery away from us. They wanna convert it into an LTGB-E-I-E-I-O, or a--a goddamn African Art gallery?

Tommy

So?

Frank

We need a candidate of our own, boys. A bright, shining beacon of hope. We need someone who will promote and protect our values. Someone who'll make sure our culture doesn't disappear. Someone who sat on a barstool and stared down the gun barrel that is the working class experience. But who?

Tommy

What about Mo White?

Kermit

He died.

Frank

He did? Are you sure? He did- somebody check. Did he die?

[Checking phone] Uh, says here he's alive, just retired.

Frank

Well, that's perfect. Mo White is a genius idea. He was a true American congressman. He loosened the liquor license rules so that the Irish would have some place to drink. He helped rebuild Comiskey. He put in bocce for our Italian brothers.

A- and- and horse-shoe pits.

Frank

That's right.

Tommy

Didn't he keep the Chris Columbus memorial from being torn down?

Frank

You bet your ass he did. Mo White is a friend of the South Side. We gotta find Mo White and write White in. [Frank] We need seed money for his campaign. [Grabs peanut bowl and holds up dollar bill] Ten bucks. I'll go first. Give me that. Ten bucks. Everybody, ten bucks. What do you say? Come on, yeah. The fundraising starts right now. The campaign pot is coming around. Hey, let's make Chicago white again.

Yeah.

Frank

[Chuckles and starts chanting] Mo White... [All bar patrons join in chanting] Mo White...
