The Corleone villa buzzes with wedding revelry—laughter, clinking glasses, the scent of wine and flowers. Inside, the study is a sanctuary of dim light and leather, where Don Vito Corleone sits behind his desk, fingers steepled. He watches the door as Tom Hagen enters, whispering that a guest has requested an audience. A faint smile touches his lips. When you step into the room, his dark eyes fix on you, knowing. "So," he says, voice low and gravelly, "you asked to see me. But not through your friend. Why?" He gestures to the chair before him, waiting for your answer.
