The Meeting with Sollozzo:
Spoiler:
SOLLOZZO
My business is heroin, I have poppy
fields, laboratories in Narseilles
and Sicily, ready to go into
production. My importing methods
are as safe as these things can be,
about five per cent loss. The risk
is nothing, the profits enormous.
DON CORLEONE
Why do you come to me? Why do I
deserve your generosity?
SOLLOZZO
I need two million dollars in
cash...more important, I need a
friend who has people in high
places; a friend who can guarantee
that if one of my employees be
arrested, they would get only light
sentences. Be my friend.
DON CORLEONE
What percentages for my family?
SOLLOZZO
Thirty per cent. In the first year
your share would be four million
dollars; then it would go up.
DON CORLEONE
And what is the percentage of the
Tattaglia family?
(SOLLOZZO nods toward HAGEN.)
SOLLOZZO
My compliments. I'll take care of
them from my share.
DON CORLEONE
So. I receive 30 per cent just for
finance and legal protection. No
worries about operations, is that
what you tell me?
SOLLOZZO
If you think two million dollars in
cash is just finance, I congratulate
you Don Corleone.
(There is a long silence; in which each person present feels
the tension. The DON is about to give his answer.)
DON CORLEONE
I said I would see you because I've
heard you're a serious man, to be
treated with respect...
(pause)
But I'll say no to you.
(We feel this around the room.)
DON CORLEONE
I'll give you my reasons. I have
many, many friends in Politics.
But they wouldn't be so friendly if
my business was narcotics instead
of gambling. They think gambling
is something like liquor, a harmless
vice...and they think narcotics is
dirty business.
(SOLLOZZO takes a breath.)
DON CORLEONE
No...how a man makes his living is
none of my business. But this
proposition of yours is too risky.
All the people in my family lived
well the last ten years, I won't
risk that out of greed.
SOLLOZZO
Are you worried about security for
your million?
DON CORLEONE
No.
SOLLOZZO
The Tattaglias will guarantee your
investment also.
(This startles SONNY; he blurts out.)
SONNY
The Tattaglia family guarantees our
investment?
(SOLLOZZO hears him first, and then very slowly turns to face
him. Everyone is the room knows that SONNY has stepped out
of line.)
DON CORLEONE
Young people are greedy, and they
have no manners. They speak when
they should listen. But I have a
sentimental weakness for my
children, and I've spoiled them, as
you see. But Signor Sollozzo, my
no is final.
(SOLLOZZO nods, understands that this is the dismissal. He
glances one last time at SONNY. He rises; all the others do
as well. He bows to the DON, shakes his hand, and formally
takes his leave. When the footsteps can no longer be heard:)
(The DON turns to SONNY.)
DON CORLEONE
Santino, never let anyone outside
the family know what you are
thinking. I think your brain is
going soft from all that comedy you
play with that young girl.
(TWO OFFICE WORKERS are carrying an enormous floral display
with the word "THANK YOU" spelled out in flowers.)
DON CORLEONE
What is this nonsense?
HAGEN
It's from Johnny. It was announced
this morning. He's going to play
the lead in the new Woltz Brothers
film.

The Hit on Don Corleone:
Spoiler:
DON CORLEONE by the fruit stand; he is about to move to the
car, when TWO MEN step from the corner. Suddenly, the DON
drops the bag of fruit and darts with startling quickness
toward the parked car.
DON CORLEONE
Fredo, Fredo!
The paper bag has hit the ground, and the fruit begins
rolling along the sidewalk, as we HEAR gunshots.
Five bullets catch the DON in the back; he arches in pain,
and continues toward the car.
The PROPRIETOR of the fruit stand rushes for cover, knocking
over an entire case of fruit.
The TWO GUNMEN move in quickly, anxious to finish him off.
Their feet careful to avoid the rolling fruit. There are
more GUNSHOTS.
FREDDIE is hysterical; he tries to get out of the car;
having difficulty opening the door. He rushes out, a gun
trembling in his hand; his mouth open. He actually drops
the gun.
The gun falls amid the rolling fruit.
The GUNMEN are panicked. They fire once more at the downed
DON CORLEONE. His leg and arm twitch where they are hit;
and pools of blood are beginning to form.
The GUNMEN are obviously in a state of panic and confusion;
they disappear around the corner as quickly as they came.
The PEOPLE about the avenue have all but disappeared:
rather, we catch glimpses of them, poking their heads safely
from around corners, inside doorways and arches, and from
windows. But the street itself is now empty.
FREDDIE is in shock; he looks at his FATHER; now great
puddles of blood have formed, and the DON is lifeless and
face down in them.
FREDDIE falls back on to the curb and sits there, saying
something we cannot understand. He begins to weep profusely.
