Just imagine Fredo or Santino in a similar situation, wanting to meet a particular virtuous woman and having to get past her dad & big brothers to do it.
Maybe such a scene can be written into the tv series....

Fredo - Umm Fabrizio, you're my most trusted body guard, so go tell Apollonia she is really my kind of dame. Tell her that Johnny Ola has told me about some really hot night clubs in Palermo that I can take her to. Johnny knows Palermo like the back of his hand. Also let them know I am a Corleone and that I have plenty of money and power.
Sonny - (when he sees her for the first time) Hey --you! Come here! Yea, you in the purple dress with the nice boobs, come on over here baby and I'll show you how a Corleone does it!
(she turns and runs away, and Sonny follows her to her father's bar/restaurant. Sonny goes inside and sees the father and her brothers)
Where is she? Hey I am asking a question here where is she? Hey...you know who I am?? (He slaps the father across the face).
I aksed a question. I want a god damn answer right now!
(One of the brothers raises his rifle and shoots Sonny in the head) Sonny falls to the ground dead.
Scene fades, telephone rings in the Corleone Household...mama Corleone answers the phone with a screaming baby in her arms, and she passes it off to Tom Hagen.
Dissolve to Don Tomasso on the telephone in Sicily
Signor Hagen...Brutta notizia dalla Sicilia. Tu fra, Santino e morte.
Hagen then waits until night time to tell the Don, and when he does the Don gives two instructions : "Call that undertaker, we need him now, and get word to Michael. Perhaps now he'll think differently about the family business.
Then the plot just kicks in.
