Part II Confusion - 10/08/05 05:03 PM
Have a few questions about part II. I want to get them straight, especially with this whole Pentangeli business.
So a few of the key players in this episode include: Michael, Frankie, and Hyman. So Frank doesn't like Hyman Roth. Michael is doing business with Roth as he spreads the Corleone empire to the west coast.
Michael assures Roth that everything is fine between them, and basically Pentangeli will be rubbed out. This isn't true. Roth's men make an attempt on Frankie's life, but make it look like Michael did it. Thus Frankie doesn't trust Michael and starts lashing out against the family, and that's where the hearings come into place.
Have I got this right? Is it totally skooed? Part II is probably the one I have most trouble understanding. Feel free to add some parts I may have left out.
