Sadly, it also showed how Fredo was not part of Family matters nor Family business nor....And Fredo -- well -- Fredo was -- well --

Poor Fredo copped it left, right and center from everyone on everything

The deleted scene with Sonny's daughter, her beau, and Michael (one of the best, IMO) has a deleted scene of its own:

In "The Godfather Saga," shown often on US cable TV, at the very end of that deleted scene, Michael turns to a hulking young man wearing a plaid sport coat and says, "How's the football, Santino?" "Fine, Uncle Michael," he replies. That young man is Sonny's second son, seen for the first and only time. We saw his first son, Frank, in the scene when Vito comes home from the hospital, giving Vito a get-well. card. The "Saga" is GF and II, in chronological order and with all the deleted scenes spliced in where they belong, far and away the best version.


Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.
