The first level in the gangster Mafia hierarchy, according to the movie Donnie Brasco. In that movie, Al Pacino explains that there are four levels of Mafia guy: [Connected guy], [Made Guy] (aka Wiseguy), Skipper, and Boss. [Connected Guy] is a guy who is vouched for by a Made Guy. He is referred to as a friend of mine by said Made Guy, but is not yet part of the Mafia yet.

Being connected refers to people who are in touch with their surroundings, a sense of [true self], and have a deep, [instinctual] empathy for fellow human beings. They are often perceived as odd or eccentric by others but are extremely intelligent and often misunderstood and underestimated.
Connected people will frequently feel deep sadness, crippling frustration, an un-expressable rage and/or [proactive] rebellion when presented with the un-justices of the world, prejudice, discrimination, [fickle] bullshit, and the cruelties and [atrocities] committed by their fellow human beings.
Some people believe that everyone is potentially connected, depending on whether they open their minds to their capacity to connect to themselves, fellow humans and the world around them; whilst others will maintain that tests have shown only 2% of the worlds population demonstrate the associated qualities and characteristics of someone who is connected and is a result of genetic trends and programming.
Many connected people have been burdened with the term gifted and talented, whilst this term identifies their inquisitive minds and ability to learn, it can act to [segregate] someone from their peers, and encourage them to develop a sense of social awkwardness, perceived [aloofness] and/ or extreme bouts of arrogance.
