Mafia II is a gritty drama and chronicles the rise of Vito Scaletta, the son of Sicilian immigrants. As the game progresses, Vito joins the Falcone Crime Family and becomes a "made man", as does his best friend Joe Barbaro. The story begins with the player character Vito returning home from World War II. Vito had joined the U.S. Army as a way of avoiding jail time for a botched robbery. Vito reunites with his old friend, Joe Barbaro, and the two quickly embark upon a life of crime. Their criminal ascension starts with Mike Bruski, a car mechanic who needs a certain type of car to chop for parts, and will pay $400 for one that the police are not tailing. Soon enough, Vito, Joe, and Henry Tomasino find themselves battling with, for, against, and around three crime factions: the Falcone, Vinci and Clemente families. 0:00 - Chapter 1 The Old Country 9:25 - Chapter 2 Home Sweet Home 50:44 - Chapter 3 Enemy of the State 1:32:01 - Chapter 4 Murphy's Law 1:45:47 - Chapter 5 The Buzzsaw 2:15:40 - Chapter 6 Time Well Spent 2:45:00 - Chapter 7 In Loving Memory of Francesco Potenza 3:13:53 - Chapter 8 The Wild Ones 3:53:08 - Chapter 9 Balls and Beans 4:24:43 - Chapter 10 Room Service 5:09:45 - Chapter 11 A Friend of Ours 5:45:15 - Chapter 12 Sea Gift 6:10:15 - Chapter 13 Exit the Dragon 6:30:00 - Chapter 14 Stairway to Heaven 7:24:50 - Chapter 15 Per Aspera Ad Astra
