- "Big mistake, asshole. . . If you had any idea what fucking Carlo's gonna do. . ."
- — Rocco's final words
Rocco is the main antagonist of the Mafia II DLC Joe's Adventures.
History[]
Background[]
He was the Underboss[1] of the Falcone Crime Family, and as such he had a lot of leeway to operate his crew and run rackets for the family. He's a sadist who takes pleasure in torturing people, and he has his sights set on taking over the family and running it himself.
Planning the Takeover[]
In 1950, Rocco decided it was time to make his move on Falcone. He begins by having Joe Barbaro take out two of Falcone's men he claims are crooked and a third he says is planning to move on Falcone. It's likely these men were just people Rocco wanted out of the way before he took over.
Sensing that Barbaro will remain loyal to Falcone Caporegime Eddie Scarpa, Rocco decides to have him taken out as well by setting up an ambush at the Uptown Parking garage. The plan fails and Joe senses something doesn't add up, so he heads to the Garden of Eden to discuss these recent events.
Takeover Attempt[]
When Joe arrives at the Cathouse and tries to discuss what's been going on, Rocco suggest they talk about it later and walks away. As he does, he instructs his men to make their move, and Rocco and his goons all open fire on the Cathouse, shooting Falcone in the shoulder, but not fatally wounding him. Rocco then tells his men to finish them off as he leaves the building, as Falcone takes cover and orders his men to kill every last one of the hit squads Rocco sent to swarm the building.
Death[]
Eddie and Joe manage to shoot their way out of the Cathouse, and then they follow Rocco to the Midtown Construction Site where he meets up with the rest of his men. Eddie waits outside in his car, while Joe enters alone to deal with them. After a lengthy shootout in which Joe kills all of Rocco's men, he finally corners Rocco on the roof, who tries to warn Joe about Falcone, before being thrown to his death by Joe, landing on the street below on the hood of a drunken Eddie's car, much to his shock.
