What does Chifano say to Braden?


The scene where Braden goes to collect the money from Chifano, and Chifano says something in Italian to Braden. What exactly did he say?

I know capiche means understood, but the words prior to capiche.

As a born Italian I can tell you that Chifano's pronounciation of that word he says is quite wrong.

He says: "How 'bout, uhm... a bahfangool... capiche?" which shall be meant as "How 'bout 'vaffanculo', understood?"

Vaffanculo means simply "f... off"
