[00:00:00]The first betrayal happens during dinner at 11:52 p.m.

[00:00:04]Nobody reaches for the wine after the boss finishes talking.

[00:00:08]You sit quietly near the end of the table, pretending not to notice the bodyguard checking exits every 30 seconds.

[00:00:15]At first, you were just [music] another runner collecting payments from corner stores and moving cash through Queens after midnight.

[00:00:22]Then the collections stop coming up short.

[00:00:25]Older captains start trusting you with shipments, safe house [music] keys, and names nobody says out loud.

[00:00:32]By 29, soldiers stand when you enter rooms. Judges answer your calls before sunrise.

[00:00:39]Entire construction unions move because you tell them to.

[00:00:44]Then the whispers start. One cousin disappears after a federal raid. Another starts wearing a wire beneath expensive suits.

[00:00:53]Your closest friend begins arriving late with his hand near his jacket pocket.

[00:00:58]Every toast feels fake. Every handshake feels measured.

[00:01:03]By the time you become family, everyone already expects you to betray them, too.
