I realize traditionally the bride's family pays for the wedding, but that's usually because they receive a dowry. Did Michael have enough money in Sicily to pay the dowry, or did he receive money from his family? Surely if he received money from his family, that could be used as proof in a court of law that they knew about his whereabouts.
Did he call out sick because he knew a hit was coming and he didn't want to be there? Was he told to not be there?
Surely him not being there didn't help the assassins. If anything, him being there would have aided them.
Fredo sucks to be sure, and wasn't much protection... but if Paulie was in on it, having him there would have helped to ensure the hit went off without a hitch.
Unless Paulie was innocent.
This sub used to be awesome, where even after decades intelligent, interesting conversations were had about 2 (3?) great films. And then for some reason the shitpost storm happened. It was funny for a minute. Some were clever. Some (most).... not so much.
I'd hate for this sub to turn into r/sopranos, where every post... no matter how interesting or insightful... is just met with, "OP never had the making of a varsity athlete."
This is a plea, I guess. To whom, I don't know.
I open and I close. When I close I clean and ensure there are preps enough to support the the first hour after open. Every other prep should be done by the openers, who have 3x the amount of labor as the closers.
Closers clean so the openers can prep.
