I raised my daughter
in American fashion.
- One day, she went to see a man.
- [Purring]
He got her alone in a room,
held her down in a chair.
When she resisted,
he stuck her with a needle.
Then, when she was helpless,
- he took-a pliers, and...
- [Sniffs]
Look at her, Don Cortino.
Look.
I'm familiar with
this Doctor Mendelbaum.
He's not a dentist, he's a butcher.
He put caps
on the Turteltaub twins.
- I saw them. They looked like beavers.
- [Meowing]
In fact, I have a cord
of wood they cut.
- I'm all set for the winter.
- [Clanging]
- [Cat Yowling]
- [Groaning] Whoops-a-daisy!
[Clattering, Banging]
Ah. I found my keys.
Huh.
I must own a car.
- ## [Dance Orchestra]
- [People Chattering]
A beautiful girl, Don Cortino.
A daughter who has brought
only happiness into our home...
- for seventeen years.
- [Vincenzo] Ugh. Horrible.
Can't really blame the boy.
Aah! Aah!
[Screaming, Clattering]
[Screaming, Crashing Continue]
Get out of here, you bastard.
What is it you request?
[Sighs]
## [Music, Chattering]
[Cat Yowling]
[Whispering, Indistinct]
U-Uh, that's my bad ear.
[Whispering, Indistinct]
I was wrong.
This must be the bad ear.
Don Cortino,
I want justice for my Angelina.
All right, Bonifacio.
All right.
I will do this thing for you.
[Gasps]
Thank you, Godfather.
[Whistling]
Thank you.
[Anthony Narrating]
Diane was my first love.
We were made for each other.
About the only disagreement we ever had
was when I went to war.
While I was off fighting, she was
working for the world peace movement.
But despite all that, when I got home,
I guess she was a sucker
for a guy in uniform.
Oh, Anthony, I'm so nervous
about meeting your family.
If they don't like me,
I'll just die.
[Man]
Hey, Tony!
[Laughing]
Big war hero!
- I got you a souvenir.
- Aw.
Oh, wow! A North Korean.
Tony, I mean, l...
I don't know what to say.
I want you
to meet Diane.
Diane, this is Dominick Clamato,
my father's most trusted friend.
- Hi.
- Bella.
Lugosi.
Marron. Hey, you guys!
Look what Tony brung me.
- [Delighted Gasps]
- I bet you never seen
one of these before.
[Diane]
Anthony, isn't that Cesar Marzoni?
The man's a criminal.
What's he doing here?
[Tony]
Maybe he does business with my father.
[Diane]
What are you saying?
Look, I'm not my father,
Diane, just as you're not your father.
If we were our fathers, what we did last
night would only be legal in Arkansas.
[Tony Narrating]
It was like I never left.
- These were the faces I grew up with.
- Good to see you, Anthony.
It wasn't just me and Joey and Pop,
it was Frankie Totino,
Look who's here.
Hey, Anthony. Welcome back.
- "Fatso" Paulie Orsatti,
- Try the veal piccata.
Who was Benny "Big Features"' brother...
he controlled the unions.
- Then you had Nick Molinaro,
who ran the North Side,
- 'Ey! How you doin'?
Jumbo "The King
Of Big Screen TV" DeNuzio.
Yo, Tony. I'll knock 20% off
that Trinitron for you.
- There was Al "The Mailbox" Spaducci,
- Miller Lite.
- Johnny Love,
- Who's the pretty girl?
And Charlie "Big Red-Ass Baboon
On His Head" Petrella.
- Catch ya later.
- [Baboon Chattering]
[Man]
The Don will see you now, Mr. Gorgoni.
Pop, this is Sal Gorgoni.
Don Cortino, it is an honor to be
in the presence of such a great man.
Your flattery brings
a redness to my hair.
Cigar?
- [Meowing]
- Very fresh.
- [Angry Meowing]
- Uh, thank you. No.
Please. Sit down.
Now, what is so urgent that
you come to see Don Corduroy...
on the third anniversary
of my stepson's liposuction?
It is a known fact that you
have the judges in your pocket.
- The politicians, they dance like...
- Mm.
- Like puppets for you.
- Mm. Mm!
You control the courts.
If you agree to share
your influence,
I will make you a partner
in my new business.
Suck my big Italian
sausage, you magootza.
You make us partner?
[Scoffs]
You'll have to excuse my son.
- [Fire Roaring, Cat Yowling]
- [Vincenzo Gasps]
[Vincenzo] What sort of business
are we talking about?
I can make us bigger
than the Almighty Himself.
Shut your slimy guinea pazatz!
Nobody's bigger than Sinatra.
[Vincenzo] Joey's a good boy,
but there's always been something...
about his personality that,
ah... how shall I put it?
He's f***in' nuts!
[Gorgoni] This was brought in
at a great expense, from
our friends in America Del Sur.
Ah, non-dairy creamer.
Good investment.
Drugs, Don Cortino.
[Vincenzo] I thank you
for your offer, Mr. Gorgoni, but...
Well, answer me this.
Where is the future
of this business?
Drugs don't taste good.
You can't put them on cereal.
Why would anyone want to invest
in something like that?
[Groaning]
I hope you don't live to regret
this decision, Don Cortino.
Now, if we're finished, I'd like to get
back to my stepdaughter's coronation.
- [Applauding]
- [Scoffs]
- [Squeaking, Popping]
- [Sighs]
## [Woman Singing Opera]
## [Singing Opera In Italian]
Godfather.
- Congratulations.
- Oh...
- Hey, Pop.
- Hey!
- I missed you, son.
- Ah. I missed you too, Pop.
- ## [Opera Continues]
- How was the war? Did you have fun?
- I want you to meet Diane.
- [Cheeks Snapping]
- Hi.
- Oh. Tastes like chicken!
- Tony!
- Hey!
[Laughing]
My big brother got married, huh?
- Who is she?
- Some Italian girl.
- Who's this?
- Oh, this is Diane.
- We went to Vassar together.
- Hi, Joey.
Anthony's told me so much about you.
Psychopath, right?
- Yeah.
- Hey!
- Oh, he seems so nice, honey.
- Get back here or I'll shoot
you in the face!
- Easy, Joey. Easy, easy, easy.
- ## [Opera Ends]
Guido. Say hello to Guido.
Hey, scunge.
- Say hello to my present.
Somethin', huh?
- How ya doin'?
Don Cortino?
Don Marzoni from Las Vegas.
Don Cortino. You honor me
by inviting me to your home.
about what you're doing in Las Vegas.
[Vincenzo]
You know, you look familiar.
Uh, this is a friend of mine.
Pepper Gianini.
Oh. Gianini.
Any Sicilian in you?
Not since last night.
[Guests Applauding]
[Vincenzo Clearing Throat]
Marriage.
The bond that binds us together.
- [Guests Murmuring]
- Myself, I've been married
to the same...
wonderful woman for 42 years.
- [Guests] Aww!
- Of course, sex stopped for us
about a week after the wedding.
As it should!
I love my Rosa as much today...
as I did the first time
I forced myself on her.
- Mm.
- Mm-hmm.
But, uh, how about
this one here?
- Breasts like cabbages.
- [Guests] What?
And how about that ass? You could
play canasta on it. [Chuckles]
So, Joey,
remember this old Sicilian proverb:
"Man is like a piece of cheese."
[Man]
Hear, hear!
[Crowd Applauds, Murmurs Approval]
- Piece of cheese?
- Piece of cheese.
## [Orchestra:
"Santa Lucia"]## [Music Continues]
Say hello to my little friend.
- Ooh! Ah! Ooh!
- [Shocked Screaming]
Ah-oo-ee-ah!
- [Man] What the hell's that?
- [Man #2] It's the jitterbug, guys.
