What's really going on
Pino's pitch is economic, but his anger is about race and shame. He is tired of working in a Black neighborhood and embarrassed that his friends mock him for it, and he wants an exit he can call sensible. Sal refuses the business logic and reframes the question around loyalty and pride: "I mean, for Christ's sake, Pino, they grew up on my food. On my food. I'm very proud of that." He also punctures Pino's idea of friendship with a blunt test, "Do your friends put money in your pocket?" The scene ends without a compromise: Sal insists the pizzeria is here to stay, and Pino stays resentful. It leaves the family and racial fault lines that the film later explodes.

You really think you know what's best for us, Pino?Sal challenges his son's assumption that he has the right answer for the family, framing the sell-the-shop idea as Pino deciding for everyone.

このシーンについての質問
Why does Pino want Sal to sell the pizzeria?
He says they should get out while they are still ahead, and he wants to reopen in their own neighborhood, Bensonhurst. Underneath, he is tired of and ashamed about working in a Black neighborhood.
Why does Sal refuse to sell?
The shop is his whole life and the only work he knows. He is proud that the neighborhood grew up on his food, and he still believes most of the customers like them.
What does "here to stay" mean when Sal says it?
It means the pizzeria is not going anywhere and will keep operating. Sal uses it to close the argument: the shop stays, no matter what Pino wants.
Is Sal right to stay, or should he have listened to Pino?
Sal never engages Pino's racial anger, only the business and loyalty sides, so he may miss how much his son wants out. The film lets both men hold their ground, and Sal gets the last word.
Who are the friends Pino complains about?
They are people from his own Italian-American neighborhood who mock him for working in Bed-Stuy and tell him to go feed the customers there. Sal says they are not real friends because they laugh at him.
