When it comes to Fredo i think people dont realize that he was just a pawn in Roths game. He never gave any information to willingly hurt mike. Was Fredo stupid? Absolutely. Did he have some resentment? Of course. Did he want to hurt mike in any way? Not a chance. He thought he was helping mike out even though it was obviously a bonehead move. I dont think he "had to kill Fredo". Some people argue that if he didnt do it he would appear weak but i dont buy That. I mean for chrissakes this is the same guy who whacked out all of the heads of the five families,moe greene,a police captain,and roth....i seriously doubt anybody would fuck with mike again no matter what he did with fredo.



I felt bad for Frankie. He was loyal to mike until he was manipulated by Roth. His death made sense because he was a old man at that point and he knew that was part of the life plus his family would be taken care of.


Roth of course needed to die. He was his biggest threat and obviously smarter which mike knew.
