Well, this isn't the "just one" question I could ask, but it is a question.

In GFII when Michael returns from Cuba and enters the motel room, he tells Neri and Lampone to leave. He then asks Tom a few questions one of which is about Fredo. Instead of answering him, Tom informs Michael about his bodyguard and Roth. I wonder why he didn't simply answer Michael's question right there and then. Of course, when he does answer about Fredo, he states that he "thinks" Fredo got out of Cuba and he must be in New York. Why the speculation by Tom. If Tom knows, he should just tell Michael; if he doesn't know, he should say that. .
