Benvenutu Consigliera,

That scene that you are describing really is supposed to show you how far removed sicilian culture was at that time and how WASP-y Nevada was. I think Frankie states "a room full of musicians and not one italian amongst ya".

I love the scene where Santino makes a jest out of Michele's offer to kill Sollozzo and the police chief. "You come outta there and bam! shoot his brains out over your nice Ivy League Suit!" or something like this.
