Anthony Abetemarco & Detective Maria Baez: A Cup of Cops and Conversation
Anthony Abetemarco: Hey Maria, you got a minute? Coffee’s hot and gossip’s even hotter.
Detective Maria Baez: For you, Anthony? Always. What’s brewing today, besides that suspiciously generic coffee?
Anthony Abetemarco: Funny you ask. Was just thinking about this case. You know, the one with the counterfeit cannoli operation down in Little Italy. It’s as if they’re trying to personally offend my Nonna.
Detective Maria Baez: Oh boy, counterfeit cannolis? What’s next, fake lasagna? Really pushing the boundaries of crime there. But on a serious note, what’s our angle on this?
Anthony Abetemarco: Glad you asked. I think we’ve got a chef with a grudge and some peculiarly high-quality mascarpone. Sounds a bit like a recipe for disaster, right?
Detective Maria Baez: Or a family secret gone rogue. Maybe they didn’t cut Nonna in on the scheme, and she’s pulling the strings from behind a rolling pin.
Anthony Abetemarco: You might be onto something. Family and food—it’s a powerful combo. Remember, in our line of work, always suspect the sauce.
Detective Maria Baez: And never underestimate a yummy alibi. So, what’s your gut saying on this one? Feast or famine regarding evidence?
Anthony Abetemarco: If my gut had a say, it’d be demanding second helpings right about now. But on the case? I think we gotta follow the crumbs—no matter how delectable they might be.
Detective Maria Baez: Agreed. Let’s serve up some justice, one pastry case at a time. How about dinner tonight at that new Italian place? We can blend in, sample the goods, and see if they pass as the real deal.
Anthony Abetemarco: Perfect plan. See you there! And Maria, save room for dessert—we’ve got investigating to do.
Detective Maria Baez: You got it, Anthony. Can’t let any pastry crime go unsolved on our watch!
