#THE GODFATHER 2 EXPLAINED FULL#
Back home, Vito hears a man shouting from across the alley, and when he opens his window to see what the ruckus is, gets tossed a cloth bag full of guns. This is Don Fanucci, associated with the Black Hand gang. What they find is a mob boss shaking down the theater owner.
Vito goes off with a friend of his to see an Italian-language vaudeville show, and go backstage so that the friend can flirt with the leading lady in the show. We flash back to 1917, where we see Vito with his wife and an infant in their apartment. On that note, Michael kisses his head and leaves. Michael has gone to say goodbye to his son Anthony, saying he has to go away on business. When it comes time to pull the bodies out, Michael has already disappeared, and it's Tom who issues the command. Outside, two bodies are in a stream with their throats slashed-likely the men who tried and failed to kill Michael. He gives Tom power over everyone in the organization and entrusts him with care of Kay and the kids. Michael meets with his consigliere Tom Hagen and tells him that he considers him a brother and is trusting him to run the family business for the time being. As everyone sits in the living room, bundled up in blankets and shaken, Michael and Kay exchange an icy glance.

Quickly, guards mobilize around the property to find the shooter. The room is full of smoke, but they're unharmed. Suddenly there's a hale of gunfire, and Michael and Kay take cover on the floor. Kay asks why the drapes are open, and Michael stares at the window confused until gunshots start ringing. It's the last moment of domestic bliss will see in the film. He admires a picture one of his children drew for him while Kay lies in bed. After the party, we find Michael in his room settling in for the night.
