Mob Wives Chicago: Classy ’til the Bitter End

Meanwhile, Nora’s been released because the cops had no reason to detain her.  The funeral director comes and talk to her.  She asks him why the cemetery told her she was trespassing when she was supposed to be there during the exhumation.  Another funeral director takes her aside and listens uncomfortably to her lunatic ranting of government conspiracy.  He tells her that he’s going to look at the body first and tell her whether or not she’s going to want to look.

The crane pulls out the casket and the funeral dude pulls it into a garage and shuts the door.  She never gets to see them even open the casket, which was her whole point.  The funeral guy doesn’t want her to see him because he’s been decomposing for 4 years.  He guarantees her that the body was autopsied, but that his eyelids, nose, and lips are gone and really doesn’t think it’s healthy for her to see him.  Well, you obviously don’t know her very well because she’s not healthy anyway.  Let her see him.  She’s already nuts.  She’s not leaving until there’s a positive ID made on his body. 

Renee is relieved to hear C-Wow laugh about the phone debacle.  They toast over and over again, because they’re too drunk to know what the fuck is going on.  Pia and C-Wow share that they’ve missed each other after their fight.  Awww, it’s all so sweet.  But wait.  Leah wants the girls to hear her out on something.  Maybe one day Pia and Renee can be civil about Nora.  Pia’s and Renee’s faces drop, but they take it in stride…for them.  Leah tells us she’s not giving up on this one.  Have fun, Leah.

The pathologist shows up and tells Nora that he’ll make an ID.  He has photos of The German from birth all the way through his late years, but he’s not seeing that this is the guy.  He’s worried that the corpse is thin, because The German was a fatso.  Didn’t he die of cancer?  You don’t see too many people die from cancer who are overweight at the time of death, do you?  I don’t take to looking at cancer-riddled corpses, so I don’t know this as fact, but that’s my impression.  He can’t say who the corpse is or isn’t, because he’s too thin.  He takes DNA samples so that they can get a positive ID.  She’s upset because she’s still not getting answer.  I’m pretty sure that even with the DNA sample, they’ll find out that his original DNA samples from when he was alive will be missing. 

On the boat, C-Wow shares with the girls that right now, Nora should be exhuming her father’s body.  This is Pia’s and Renee’s reaction…

Leah seems to be done with this subject, because she points out that they already talked about this in the limo. 

Back at the funeral home, the director tells Nora that they can’t cremate him today, because there’s no positive ID yet.  Nora doesn’t want to wait the couple of weeks it takes for a DNA result.  Obviously, she’s never had to find out the identity of her baby’s daddy.  Doesn’t everyone know that DNA tests take forever?  Hell, they won’t hurry those things up to save someone’s life.
