A horrified Woltz gives Fontane the part. In retaliation, The Don’s henchmen sever the head from Woltz’s prized racehorse and place it in his bed. Woltz refuses because Fontane stole his trophy girlfriend. Don Corleone sends Hagen to convince Hollywood film producer, Jack Woltz, to cast Fontane in his new picture. When Genco passes away, the Don appoints as new Consigliere his adopted son and lawyer, Tom Hagen. Later that evening, Don Corleone visits his dying Consigliere, Genco Abbandando, in the hospital. He agrees to solve their problems but chastises Bonasera for his foolish faith in the legal system. The Don meets with Bonasera, Fontane, and Nazorine. He is therefore a “man of respect” to whom people come seeking extralegal justice and other services in exchange for pledging their everlasting loyalty to their Godfather. The Don has amassed great wealth and power through his control of criminal rackets such as gambling and extortion. Don Vito’s youngest son, the World War II hero Michael Corleone, sits with his non-Italian girlfriend, Kay Adams. Fredo Corleone, the middle son, dutifully mixes with the wedding guests. The hot-tempered Sonny Corleone sneaks off to have sex with his mistress, Lucy Mancini.
Also attending the wedding are Don Vito’s sons. The Godfather, Don Vito Corleone, the Sicilian-American boss of the Corleone Family, one of the Mafia’s Five Families that dominate organized crime in New York City, is hosting the wedding of his daughter, Connie Corleone, at his lavish Long Beach home. The Baker knows that only Don Corleone can help. Meanwhile, Nazorine, a New York baker, wants to prevent his employee, Enzo, from being deported back to Italy. His voice and career failing, Johnny takes his problems to his Godfather, Don Corleone. In a Los Angeles hotel, celebrity Johnny Fontane drunkenly strikes his second wife, actress Margot Ashton, for cheating on him, but he cannot bring himself to hit her beautiful face.
Furious, he decides to seek true justice from Don Vito Corleone. An undertaker, Amerigo Bonasera, watches a judge suspend the sentences of two men who savagely beat his daughter.
