Now
both
of
them
turned
their
attention
to
Kevin
Moonan
,
who
was
trying
to
shout
.
The
man
holding
him
from
behind
did
so
easily
with
one
huge
muscled
arm
.
The
other
hand
he
put
around
Moonan
's
throat
to
cut
off
any
sound
.
412
Paulie
Gatto
jumped
into
the
car
and
started
the
motor
.
The
two
big
men
were
beating
Moonan
to
jelly
.
They
did
so
with
frightening
deliberation
,
as
if
they
had
all
the
time
in
the
world
.
They
did
not
throw
punches
in
flurries
but
in
timed
,
slow-motion
sequences
that
carried
the
full
weight
of
their
massive
bodies
.
Each
blow
landed
with
a
splat
of
flesh
splitting
open
.
Gatto
got
a
glimpse
of
Moonan
's
face
.
It
was
unrecognizable
.
The
two
men
left
Moonan
lying
on
the
sidewalk
and
turned
their
attention
to
Wagner
.
Wagner
was
trying
to
get
to
his
feet
and
he
started
to
scream
for
help
.
Someone
came
out
of
the
bar
and
the
two
men
had
to
work
faster
now
.
They
clubbed
Wagner
to
his
knees
.
One
of
the
men
took
his
arm
and
twisted
it
,
then
kicked
him
in
the
spine
.
There
was
a
cracking
sound
and
Wagner
's
scream
of
agony
brought
windows
open
all
along
the
street
.
The
two
men
worked
very
quickly
.
One
of
them
held
Wagner
up
by
using
his
two
hands
around
Wagner
's
head
like
a
vise
.
The
other
man
smashed
his
huge
fist
into
the
fixed
target
.
There
were
more
people
coming
out
of
the
bar
but
none
tried
to
interfere
.
Paulie
Gatto
yelled
,
"
Come
on
,
enough
.
"
The
two
big
men
jumped
into
the
car
and
Paulie
gunned
it
away
,
Somebody
would
describe
the
car
and
read
the
license
plates
but
it
did
n't
matter
413
It
was
a
stolen
California
plate
and
there
were
one
hundred
thousand
black
Chevy
sedans
in
New
York
City
.

Tom
Hagen
went
to
his
law
office
in
the
city
on
Thursday
morning
.
He
planned
to
catch
up
on
his
paper
work
so
as
to
have
everything
cleared
away
for
the
meeting
with
Virgil
Sollozzo
on
Friday
.
A
meeting
of
such
importance
that
he
had
asked
the
Don
for
a
full
evening
of
talk
to
prepare
for
the
proposition
they
knew
Sollozzo
would
offer
the
family
business
.
Hagen
wanted
to
have
all
little
details
cleared
away
so
that
he
could
go
to
that
preparatory
meeting
with
an
unencumbered
mind
.
415
The
Don
had
not
seemed
surprised
when
Hagen
returned
from
California
late
Tuesday
evening
and
told
him
the
results
of
the
negotiations
with
Woltz
.
He
had
made
Hagen
go
over
every
detail
and
grimaced
with
distaste
when
Hagen
told
about
the
beautiful
little
girl
and
her
mother
.
He
had
murmured
"
infamita
,
"
his
strongest
disapproval
.
He
had
asked
Hagen
one
final
question
.
"
Does
this
man
have
real
balls
?
"
416
Hagen
considered
exactly
what
the
Don
meant
by
this
question
.
Over
the
years
he
had
learned
that
the
Don
's
values
were
so
different
from
those
of
most
people
that
his
words
also
could
have
a
different
meaning
.
Did
Woltz
have
character
?
Did
he
have
a
strong
will
?
He
most
certainly
did
,
but
that
was
not
what
the
Don
was
asking
.
Did
the
movie
producer
have
the
courage
not
to
be
bluffed
?
Did
he
have
the
willingness
to
suffer
heavy
financial
loss
delay
on
his
movies
would
mean
,
the
scandal
of
his
big
star
exposed
as
a
user
of
heroin
?
Again
the
answer
was
yes
.
But
again
this
was
not
what
the
Don
meant
.
Finally
Hagen
translated
the
question
properly
in
his
mind
.
417
Did
Jack
Woltz
have
the
balls
to
risk
everything
,
to
run
the
chance
of
losing
all
on
a
matter
of
principle
,
on
a
matter
of
honor
;
for
revenge
?

Hagen
smiled
.
He
did
it
rarely
but
now
he
could
not
resist
jesting
with
the
Don
.
"
You
're
asking
if
he
is
a
Sicilian
.
"
The
Don
nodded
his
head
pleasantly
,
acknowledging
the
flattering
witticism
and
its
truth
.
"
No
,
"
Hagen
said
.
419
That
had
been
all
.
The
Don
had
pondered
the
question
until
the
next
day
.
On
Wednesday
afternoon
he
had
called
Hagen
to
his
home
and
given
him
his
instructions
.
The
instructions
had
consumed
the
rest
of
Hagen
's
working
day
and
left
him
dazed
with
admiration
.
There
was
no
question
in
his
mind
that
the
Don
had
solved
the
problem
,
that
Woltz
would
call
him
this
morning
with
the
news
that
Johnny
Fontane
had
the
starring
part
in
his
new
war
movie
.
420
At
that
moment
the
phone
did
ring
but
it
was
Amerigo
Bonasera
.
The
undertaker
's
voice
was
trembling
with
gratitude
.
He
wanted
Hagen
to
convey
to
the
Don
his
undying
friendship
.
The
Don
had
only
to
call
on
him
.
He
,
Amerigo
Bonasera
,
would
lay
down
his
life
for
the
blessed
Godfather
.
Hagen
assured
him
that
the
Don
would
be
told
.
