Nice try.
Like their buddy Roth...the Rosato Bros. had bigger goals than tormenting Frankie with false information during what would've been the final 15 seconds of his life. One need only pay attention to Frankie's initial complaints to Mike at Tahoe to understand that.
Anyway...he'd already been slipped the 'C'-note, the insult of which was torment enough.
