Dear WGTH:

I'm sure everyone here knows it was Fabrizio's intention to ill Michael and NOT Appolonia. We do hear him specifically asking Michael if he's taking his wife with him in the car and Michael, not yet knowing that Appolonia wants to drive...says no. Fabrizio upon being told this assumes it's all clear to plant the car bomb, figuring only Michael will be killed. By the time he realizes that it is Appolonia who will be blown to bits...it's really too late to do anything but run. He can't do a thing to stop her, because he'd then be admitting to his own guilt and pretty much committing suicide.

And of course Fabrizio came under Barzini's finger...with the promise of being brought to America.
