I really don't think Fredo was that stupid to betray Michael again. I think he was too relieved that Mike had forgiven him and that he was allowed to return. Fredo would always be in the position to do damage to Michael, but I think he wouldn't have tried it again. Especially if Michael kept him out of the family business.




Disagree.

Fredo seemed quite unrepentent about his reasons for betraying Micheal. Being banished from the family could easily have worsened the resenment he already felt for Micheal and this could have manifested itself in another betrayal. This time he would have much less to lose also.
