But it s not always true.Arlene appeared in the bar one day, not long before Franky Albertino came back to town, hoping that she d find a man called Jack. Franky was hoping that people might have forgotten the mess he d left behind him the first time around. Franky s problem had always been women. Women and money. What Arlene s problem is isn t clear.
