When his wife dies in an attack and Sonny is killed by some rivals, he goes back to the US and participates in an useless attempt of general reconciliation between the different "families". Here the young man falls in love with Apollonia.

Michael hides in Sicily to avoid revenge. Michael then, overstepping his impetuous brother Sonny and the temporizer Tom, organizes a meeting with Sollozzo and the corrupted police captain McCluskey and kills them both. The rejection raises a bloody fight between the two clans: Don Vito himself is seriously injured and the youngest son Michael saves him from a second attack. Sollozzo, on behalf of the powerful "family" Tartaglia, asks Corleone financings and support for the drug trafficking. He sends his stepson Tom Hagen in California to convince the producer Jack Woltz to hire the singer Johnny in his next film, but Woltz doesn’t agree, so Tom then forces him to accept with a "warning", killing his favorite race horse. As is customary, during the refreshments for celebrating the wedding of his daughter Conny with Carlo, the "godfather" Don Vito Corleone promises assistance and protection to his family and friends.
