The Long Arm of the Godfather Page #2

---

- That's a...

...like a counsellor, an advisor.

Very important for the family.

You like your lasagne?

Don Corleone.

I'm honoured and grateful...

...that you have invited me

to your daughter's wedding.

On the day of your daughter's wedding.

And I hope that their first child

will be a masculine child.

I pledge my ever-ending loyalty.

- For your daughter's bridal purse.

- Thank you, Luca. Most valued friend.

Don Corleone, I'm going to leave you

now, because I know you're busy.

Thank you.

Signora Corleone!

No!

Senator Cauley apologised for not

coming, but said you'd understand.

Also some of the judges.

They've all sent gifts.

What is that outside?

Johnny! Johnny!

I love you!

He came all the way from California.

I told you he'd come!

- He's probably in trouble again.

- He's a good godson.

Johnny, Johnny! Sing a song!

You never said you knew

Johnny Fontane!

- Sure. You want to meet him?

- Great! Sure.

- My father helped him with his career.

- He did?

How?

- Let's listen to this song.

- Michael...

Please, Michael. Tell me.

When Johnny was starting out, he was

signed to a personal service contract...

...with a big bandleader.

And as his career got better and better,

he wanted to get out of it.

Johnny is my father's godson.

My father went to see this bandleader.

He offered him 10,000 dollars

to let Johnny go...

...but the bandleader said no.

So the next day my father went to see

him, but this time with Luca Brasi.

Within an hour...

...he signed a release

for a certified cheque of 1,000 dollars.

- How did he do that?

- Made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

- What was that?

- Luca Brasi held a gun to his head...

...and father said that either his brains or

his signature would be on the contract.

That's a true story.

That's my family, Kay. It's not me.

Beautiful!

I'll take care of it.

Tom...

I want you to find Santino.

Tell him to come to the office.

How are you, Fredo?

My brother Fredo,

this is Kay Adams.

- Hi.

- How are you doing?

- This is my brother Mike.

- Are you having a good time?

Yeah. This is your friend?

I don't know what to do.

My voice is weak. It's weak.

Anyway, if I had this part in the picture,

it puts me right back on top again.

But this... Man won't give it to me,

the head of the studio.

- What's his name?

- Woltz.

He won't give it to me,

and he says there's no chance.

Sonny?

Sonny?

Sonny?

- Sonny, are you in there?

- What?

The old man wants you.

One minute.

A month ago he bought the movie rights

to this book, a best-seller.

The main character

is a guy just like me.

I wouldn't even have to act.

Godfather, I don't know what to do.

You can act like a man!
