We meet Ellen, a loyal bingo player of St. Clementines parish in the Bronx. Ellen's game is interrupted by a call from her young assassin, Camille. After some confrontation between the two, Ellen orders Camille to dispose of a body. "No questions asked." Camille is forced to bring along an inexperienced "wise guy," Tommy G, on this late night mission to teach him "the ropes."
The scene shifts to a remote swamp somewhere between NYC and New Jersey. The assassin and the "rookie" drag a bag with the body in it through this muck filled swamp. In a scene reminiscent of The Sopranos Pine Barrens episode, the two complain and bicker about breakfast cereal, communion, and snakes. When they finally reach the dumping spot, the real cat-and mouse begins between the killer and "student."
