Hagen
nodded
and
went
out
.
He
wondered
if
the
Don
was
keeping
a
check
on
him
also
in
some
way
and
then
was
ashamed
of
his
suspicion
.
But
now
he
was
sure
that
in
the
subtle
and
complex
mind
of
the
Godfather
a
far-ranging
plan
of
action
was
being
initiated
that
made
the
day
's
happenings
no
more
than
a
tactical
retreat
.
And
there
was
that
one
dark
fact
that
no
one
mentioned
,
that
he
himself
had
not
dared
to
ask
,
that
Don
Corleone
ignored
.
All
pointed
to
a
day
of
reckoning
in
the
future
.
But
it
was
to
be
nearly
another
year
before
Don
Corleone
could
arrange
for
his
son
Michael
to
be
smuggled
back
into
the
United
States
.
During
that
time
the
whole
Family
racked
their
brains
for
suitable
schemes
.
Even
Carlo
Rizzi
was
listened
to
now
that
he
was
living
in
the
mall
with
Connie
.
(
During
that
time
they
had
a
second
child
,
a
boy
.
)
But
none
of
the
schemes
met
with
the
Don
's
approval
.
Finally
it
was
the
Bocchicchio
Family
who
through
a
misfortune
of
its
own
solved
the
problem
.
There
was
one
Bocchicchio
,
a
young
cousin
of
no
more
than
twenty-five
years
of
age
,
named
Felix
,
who
was
born
in
America
and
with
more
brains
than
anyone
in
the
clan
had
ever
had
before
.
He
had
refused
to
be
drawn
into
the
Family
garbage
hauling
business
and
married
a
nice
American
girl
of
English
stock
to
further
his
split
from
the
clan
.
He
went
to
school
at
night
,
to
become
a
lawyer
,
and
worked
during
the
day
as
a
civil
service
post
office
clerk
.
During
that
time
he
had
three
children
but
his
wife
was
a
prudent
manager
and
they
lived
on
his
salary
until
he
got
his
law
degree
.
Now
Felix
Bocchicchio
,
like
many
young
men
,
thought
that
having
struggled
to
complete
his
education
and
master
the
tools
of
his
profession
,
his
virtue
would
automatically
be
rewarded
and
he
would
earn
a
decent
living
.
This
proved
not
to
be
the
case
.
Still
proud
,
he
refused
all
help
from
his
clan
.
But
a
lawyer
friend
of
his
,
a
young
man
well
connected
and
with
a
budding
career
in
a
big
law
firm
,
talked
Felix
into
doing
him
a
little
favor
.
It
was
very
complicated
,
seemingly
legal
,
and
had
to
do
with
a
bankruptcy
fraud
.
It
was
a
million-to-one
shot
against
its
being
found
out
.
Felix
Bocchicchio
took
the
chance
.
Since
the
fraud
involved
using
the
legal
skills
he
had
learned
in
a
university
,
it
seemed
not
so
reprehensible
,
and
,
in
an
odd
way
,
not
even
criminal
.
To
make
a
foolish
story
short
,
the
fraud
was
discovered
.
The
lawyer
friend
refused
to
help
Felix
in
any
manner
,
refused
to
even
answer
his
telephone
calls
.
The
two
principals
in
the
fraud
,
shrewd
middle-aged
businessmen
who
furiously
blamed
Felix
Bocchicchio
's
legal
clumsiness
for
the
plan
going
awry
,
pleaded
guilty
and
cooperated
with
the
state
,
naming
Felix
Bocchicchio
as
the
ringleader
of
the
fraud
and
claiming
he
had
used
threats
of
violence
to
control
their
business
and
force
them
to
cooperate
with
him
in
his
fraudulent
schemes
.
Testimony
was
given
that
linked
Felix
with
uncles
and
cousins
in
the
Bocchiochio
clan
who
had
criminal
records
for
strong-arm
,
and
this
evidence
was
damning
.
The
two
businessmen
got
off
with
suspended
sentences
.
Felix
Bocchiochio
was
given
a
sentence
of
one
to
five
years
and
served
three
of
them
.
The
clan
did
not
ask
help
from
any
of
the
Families
or
Don
Corleone
because
Felix
had
refused
to
ask
their
help
and
had
to
be
taught
a
lesson
:
that
mercy
comes
only
from
the
Family
,
that
the
Family
is
more
loyal
and
more
to
be
trusted
than
society
.
In
any
case
,
Felix
Bocchicchio
was
released
from
prison
after
serving
three
years
,
went
home
and
kissed
his
wife
and
three
children
and
lived
peacefully
for
a
year
,
and
then
showed
that
he
was
of
the
Bocchicchio
clan
after
all
.
Without
any
attempt
to
conceal
his
guilt
,
he
procured
a
weapon
,
a
pistol
,
and
shot
his
lawyer
friend
to
death
.
He
then
searched
out
the
two
businessmen
and
calmly
shot
them
both
through
the
head
as
they
came
out
of
a
luncheonette
.
He
left
the
bodies
lying
in
the
street
and
went
into
the
luncheonette
and
ordered
a
cup
of
coffee
which
he
drank
while
he
waited
for
the
police
to
come
and
arrest
him
.
His
trial
was
swift
and
his
judgment
merciless
.
A
member
of
the
criminal
underworld
had
cold
bloodedly
murdered
state
witnesses
who
had
sent
him
to
the
prison
he
richly
deserved
.
It
was
a
flagrant
flouting
of
society
and
for
once
the
public
,
the
press
,
the
structure
of
society
and
even
soft-headed
and
soft-hearted
humanitarians
were
united
in
their
desire
to
see
Felix
Bocchicchio
in
the
electric
chair
.
The
governor
of
the
state
would
no
more
grant
him
clemency
than
the
officials
of
the
pound
spare
a
mad
dog
,
which
was
the
phrase
of
one
of
the
governor
's
closest
political
sides
.
The
Bocchiochio
clan
of
course
would
spend
whatever
money
was
needed
for
appeals
to
higher
courts
,
they
were
proud
of
him
now
,
but
the
conclusion
was
certain
.
After
the
legal
folderol
,
which
might
take
a
little
time
,
Felix
Bocchicchio
would
die
in
the
electric
chair
.
It
was
Hagen
who
brought
this
case
to
the
attention
of
the
Don
at
the
request
of
one
of
the
Bocchiochios
who
hoped
that
something
could
be
done
for
the
young
man
.
Don
Codeone
curtly
refused
.
He
was
not
a
magician
.
People
asked
him
the
impossible
.
