Extract: I'll go a step farther: Maybe running the brothel was part of Fredo's "Mickey Mouse nightclub" resentment--he served a rough and humiliating apprenticeship learning the casino business under Moe Greene, but Michael apparently isn't letting him anywhere near his casino empire,or including him in the Havana deal. A step even farther: Vito had contempt for Tattaglia because he was a pimp---what is Fredo now?
Was Fredo “learning the casino business under Moe Greene" or was Fredo banging cocktail waitresses two at a time!
"rough and humiliating apprenticeship"?!
Fredo: Extracts:
Moe and me -- we're good friends, right Moe? Huh?
Wait a minute, Moe -- Moe, I got an idea --
Mike! You don't come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Greene like that!
- Geary set up Ref: J Geoff Malta Transcript - Inside a Fredo's club [one of many?]
Fredo and Tom walk in and shake hands with the Manager
The Manager says “Freddie, good to see ya” like he hadn't seen Fredo for awhile
Was Fredo continuing his old tricks! leaving the Manager, to oversee, the players got their drinks!
It looked like Fredo was in charge -- uh – everything! Otherwise why would Michael say
Extract: I don't want to see you at the hotels --
He may not have been included in the Havana deal, Tom wasn't either
It looked like Fredo was running or involved in the casino empire – “big casino-hotels, brothels, Fredo's specialty! Entertainment - the whole operation
That was no Donship!
