It looked as though JF was not happy to comply with Mike's "request." Then MC invokes the deity, asking that Johnny do it for his godfather.

"Do you know who I am? I'm Moe Green! I made my bones when you were still going out with cheerleaders!!!"

"Michael...you don't come to Las Vegas and talk to a man like Moe Green like that!"

"Fredo. You're my older brother and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against family again. Ever!"
