The following is a script of the mission Ladies' Night in The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Script

Luis: Yo, T.

Tony: Where have you been?

Luis: I got here as soon as I could, bro.

Tony: Oh man, Luis, Gracie. Luis, Gracie!

Luis: What about Gracie?

Tony: They got Gracie. She's gone. Evan's dead, now Gracie.

Luis: Fuck Evan. Who's got Gracie?

Tony: I - I don't know!

Luis: What are you talking about, bro? Where is she?

Tony: Some guys at war with her father, I guess. I don't know!

Luis: Hey, Gracie's pretty tough.

Tony: She's a princess!

Luis: She's a tough princess.

Tony: If they fucking hurt her...

Luis: Yeah, they'll have you, me and a mob family to deal with.

Tony: You never liked her. You never did. You never liked anyone.

Luis: That's not true. I like her.

Tony: No, you didn't!

Luis: She's my favorite coke whore.

Tony: Aw, and what makes you so good, huh? If it wasn't for me, you'd be selling dime bags on a street corner. I made you.

Luis: Yeah, and she and Evan made you into a junkie. Okay? I mean, she's not a bad person, okay? She's not a murdering greedy psychopath, like me. She's all heart... you know, if you can get past the accent. Okay, but she made you into a useless old queen, too whacked out on blow and pills to notice this business is going to shit.

Tony: Ah, here we go, huh, here we fucking go, huh? Oh, I see it in your eyes. You're embarrassed of me. You see me and think "Oh, this is it," this is the moment to put me down, this is the moment when the apprentice takes over, huh? Oh man, you think I'm done. You're not so fucking tough, Luis.

Luis: And you're not so smart, you dumb junkie fuck.

Tony: Oh yeah, fuck you Luis!

(Tony aims a pistol at Luis)

Luis: Come on Tony, chill out.

Tony: You're right. You're right. You're not the one with the problem. I am.

(Tony aims the pistol at himself)

Luis: T- Tony, what the - what the fuck are you doing?

Tony: No. I'm holding you back. I see that now. I see that now. You're the closet thing I've had to a son. I'm sorry, Luis. I love you. Goodbye.

Luis: Tony. Come on, man.

Tony: Goodbye. I love you.

(Tony pulls the trigger but it doesn't fire)

Tony: Shit! Shit!

Luis: Fuck!

(Luis disarms Tony and knocks him to the floor)

Luis: What the fuck is wrong with you, you dumb prick? Huh? Get up. Get up, so I can kill you myself. Get up!

Tony: Okay, okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I just - I just couldn't take it anymore.

(Luis helps Tony up)

Luis: Come on, get up. Get up your old bastard. Huh? Come on. Let's go find Gracie. Okay? Jesus Christ.

Tony: Oh, shit Luis.

Luis: Jesus Christ.

Dialogue

Tony: We should go and get the Ancelottis' chopper. It's just on the other side of the Booth Tunnel.

or:

Tony: The Ancelottis said I should use their chopper. It's at the heliport on top of the entrance of the Booth Tunnel.

Luis: What we gonna do with a chopper?

Tony: What do you think we're doing on this outing? We're looking for Gracie.

Luis: You got any ideas where we might start doing that? It's a big city, Tone.

Tony: I may be semi-suicidal, but I'm not completely stupid, Luis.

Luis: You ain't even semi-suicidal, T. You're just over-dramatic. I wouldn't be surprised if that gun was just a movie prop.

Tony: We've been in enough shit recently for me to carry something a little bit more dangerous than a prop gun.

Luis: You'd think you'd know enough with all the shit we been in to take the safety off a gun before you use it.

Tony: Fair point. I'll get a post-it note for the next time. "Disengage before suicide attempt."

Luis: "Self-indulgent cry for help", you mean.

Tony: Okay. I need your help, Luis. You're all I've got left. You happy now? I said it. Well done. You win, jackass.

Luis: Okay, bro. Where we looking for this girl then?

Tony: There's some lowlifes in Dukes who might be involved. Losers even by current mob standards, which is saying something.

Luis: You from Dukes, ain't you?

Tony: I try to forget about that.

Luis: Okay. So we head over there and do what? Land on the roof and ask them where they got Gracie?

Tony: We just got to follow them. See if they take us anywhere interesting.

Luis: Okay, bro. Let's hope for the best.

Tony: Who knows what they could have done to that girl? She could be dead at the bottom of the West River now.

Luis: Or she could be driving some son of a bitch kidnapper crazy. I wouldn't wish that nasal whining voice on the worst guy out there. Gracie's got my backing over some chump hood from Dukes.

Tony: You're right. That could be the smart bet.

Luis: Her old man said something interesting to me, by the way.

Luis: Oh yeah, what did he say?

Tony: He's blaming us for this whole thing. Either we get her back or we're dead.

Luis: That's definitely interesting. How the fuck did he get that in his head? I barely know the girl.

Tony: It's the diamonds, Lou. Rocco's had a word with him.

Luis: Motherfucking guido hejo cabrone.

(Tony receives a photo of Gracie)

Tony: Shit. I just got forwarded a photo of Gracie from the kidnappers. The girl does not look good.

Luis: Hey, who knows. Bound and gagged might be the look for guido sluts next season. Anyways, look at the bright side, at least she's alive.

or:

Tony: Shit. Rocco just forwarded me a photo of Gracie. They've gagged her.

Luis: I bet they have. Bro, I want to gag the bitch most times I see her. Joking, man. I was joking.

Tony: This is where they keep the chopper.

Luis: Come on, hurry up man.

Tony: Take us over to Cerveza Heights. Their house is over there.

Alternate Dialogue

Failing the mission

Chopper destroyed

Tony: The Ancelotti chopper. Shit, Lou, the old man loved that as much as his daughter.

Luis: Does it really matter if there's another thing them guys are pissed at us for? I'm sorry, T. Later, bro.

Kidnapper escapes

Tony: That guy could be anywhere now. Poor little Gracie.

Luis: So what if we lost him, man. They're gonna put in a ransom demand and Ancelotti will pay up. I'll see you soon, ok?
