Would it really take more then two hours to get from there to the restaurant? I know he;s joking, but for the rest of you...
It wouldn't.
They found 1 1/2 Hours ahead of time.
A new unidentified Button Man could go to the restaurant, take a leak, plantt he gun, and be gone!
You'd THINK Sollozzo's men would stake the place out though!
Sollozzo said it himself: You think too much of me Mike, i'm not THAT smart.
Actually, in the Novel, the guy at the table next to Sollozzo was a Sollozzo accomplice, but NOBODy suspected Mike, when he saw Mike shoot Sollozzo he forze and Mike pointed the gun at him but the man was obviously unarmed! Also, not even McCLuskey thought of this, when he saw Sollozzo shot he expected Mike to turn himself inand relinquish the weapon, he never expected Mike too Shoot HIM!
