With ALL due RESPECT SB, that's where we differ on this interpretation. I've always felt that the loss of his job combined with the shakedown of Abbandando lit the fire in Vito's and killed by the Pezzanovante of the old world. And he was not going to let that happen to his family in the new world. It was then that he started to realize no one ever stood up to this Fanucci and the wheels in his head began to turn.

But this is what makes The Godfather Trilogy and these boards so great! We all love the same movie, watch the same movie and yet we all see it differently!
