IMO, and i'm not sure if anyone else has agreed, i think vincent took over as head and descided it would be best to have al neri as his consigleri. neri after all was getting alittle older. if there were hits needed the lesser guys could take care of it. also i think connie was there to give advice on smaller issues. kay probably went into saclusion, and poor anthony full of rage quit the opera and became a lawyer.
