Ma Cipriani began operating her restaurant, presumably with her husband, in [[1968]]. Ma Cipriani works in the kitchen of the restaurant: "While his (Toni's) mother slaved away in the kitchen, producing masterpiece after masterpiece" [http://www.rockstargames.com/libertytree/jul2001/story3.html]. Ma Cipriani continued to operate the restaurant whilst also raising her son Toni. Ma Cipriani beat Toni regularly, as a child and an adult, complaining that Toni is too girly and will never be as good as his father [http://www.rockstargames.com/libertycitystories/gta_lcs.html]. | Ma Cipriani began operating her restaurant, presumably with her husband, in [[1968]].

However, in [[1994]], Ma Cipriani loses all contact with Toni, after he killed a leading member of the Mafia. When Toni reappears, he does not immediately go to see his mother, which angers her. When he does visit, Ma Cipriani lays into him for not calling whilst he was away. She then compares Toni to his father and mob men in Liberty City, including [[Giovanni Casa]], saying that Toni doesn't match up to either of them. Toni then sets out to prove his mother wrong, by taking pictures of Giovanni Casa in a diaper chasing two prostitutes. However, this backfires with Ma Cipriani thinking less of Toni, with Ma Cipriani saying that whether Casa wears a diaper or not that he's still a better man than Toni. | However, in [[1994]], Ma Cipriani loses all contact with Toni, after he killed a leading member of the Mafia.

Ma Cipriani continues to berate her son Toni, by having him kill two groups of Triads, winning a street race, killing [[Dan Sucho]] and killing Giovanni Casa for not paying protection money. However, Ma Cipriani still does not think of Toni as a man, and eventually calls a hit on him, which Toni survives. She eventually calls off the hit after Toni becomes a made man (in the mission Making Toni). | Ma Cipriani continues to berate her son Toni, by having him kill two groups of [[Portland Triads|Triads]], winning a street race, killing [[Dan Sucho]] and killing Giovanni Casa for not paying protection money.

Ma Cipriani also phones into [[Chatterbox FM|Chatterbox]], a talk show on [[Liberty City Free Radio]] in [[1998]], complaining to [[Lazlow]] that Toni won't move back in with her. After being called Grandma, she threatens "Lazarus", saying that she just put a hit on his head. This is unlikely, since Lazlow was still hosting Chatterbox FM in October 2001. | Ma Cipriani also phones into [[Chatterbox FM|Chatterbox]], a talk show on [[Liberty City Free Radio]] in [[1998]], complaining to [[Lazlow]] that Toni won't move back in with her.
