And speaking of making threats:
Michael obviously hadn't learned from his father when he was holed up in Sicily. He tells Sr. Vitale who he is, what he's doing there, and then says that some people would pay a lot for that info but then his daughter would lose a father instead of gaining a husband. Not too swift...
Chalk it up to his inexperience TB.
Seriously though, you are right. And his boasting that info to Vitelli only supports my post over in the GF Trilogy pertaining to how Michael sat there and bragged to Kay about the power that his father and his family had. Again, as far as I am concerned that line to Kay, (paraphrasing) "It's my family Kay, it's not me" is a bunch of bullshit. I firmly believe that while wanting to be his own man, deep down there was something in Michael that aroused him in knowing how powerful his father was and how if he chose to he could one day wield that same power!
