We've discussed it before but why didn't Castellano see it coming? Maybe not those particular events on that particular day but he should have known what was up.
I mean he ordered Ruggiero to turn over tapes and Ruggiero refused. That alone should have been enough to warrrant Ruggiero's execution and/or let Big Paul know he was losing authority. The Boss tells you to do something and you refuse? You negotiate? You ignore?
Seems like Paul should have arranged for Gotti's removal immediately after Dellacroce's death, if not before.
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming
Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
