Narrative

July 27th, 1951

Henry's Situation

Vito wakes up to someone at his door, and he's surprised when he sees it's Henry Tomasino. Henry asks if they can talk and invites Vito to have a drink with him. As Vito drives, Henry discusses his situation and asks Vito if there's any way he could put in a good word with the Falcone family and get him a job working for them. Vito agrees and takes Henry to meet Eddie Scarpa at The Maltese Falcon.

Along the way they discuss the destruction of the Clemente Crime Family and the death of Don Clemente. When Henry asks if Vito and Joe had anything to do with it, Vito will only say that they were taking care of something for their boss that day. Henry then suggests that he wear a better disguise next time because he saw the two from a mile away.

Meeting With Eddie

While speaking with Eddie, Vito learns that the Vinci Crime Family is planning to make a move on the Falcone family, but Eddie doesn't know their exact plan. Vito asks if they are planning to go after the rest of Clemente's men, and Eddie says that unless they try something stupid, Falcone has no immediate plans to. Knowing that, Vito asks Eddie if he would be interested in having Henry work for them.

Vito makes the introductions and Eddie immediately asks if Henry is aware of any plans Clemente and Vinci had against the Falcone family. Henry describes a conversation he overheard between Luca Gurino and Leo Galante where Luca was trying to turn Vinci against Falcone, mentioning how he was involved in some dirty business and how something should be done about it. Knowing Vinci is against drugs explains why they're planning a move on them.

Eddie decides they need to hit Vinci first by getting rid of Leo Galante. He explains to Vito that he wanted to keep him out of it, but he had nobody else who can pull the job off; however, with Henry now in the picture, it would be an excellent chance for him to prove himself to the Falcones. Eddie asks if Vito will go along and make sure it goes smoothly, but Vito turns him down, explaining that Leo was like a father to him in prison. Eddie understands and tells Henry he's on his own with this one and that he can hire some help if he needs it, but the job has to be done that day. Henry reassures Eddie it will be and leaves the bar to take care of it, after which Eddie tells Vito he has nothing else for him and asks that he drop by the next day.

Warning Leo

As he leaves the bar Vito decides he needs to warn Leo about the hit, so he rushes to Leo's house, where he finds him still dressed in his pajamas and acting confused. After some conversation, Vito gets Leo out of the house and drives him to the train station while they talk about the shady business Falcone is involved in and Leo's plans to settle his affairs in Lost Heaven before he heads off to retire someplace warm.

Eric Reilly

After dropping Leo off, Vito heads home to find his sister Francesca waiting for him. She tells Vito that she's having troubles with her husband Eric and she's tired of his constant drinking and cheating behind her back. After being pressed, she admits he occasionally hits her as well. She begs Vito not to hurt him, as she just wants him to talk to Eric and make him straighten up.

Vito finds Eric partying at a friend's apartment and confronts him about how he's treating Francesca. The two end up fighting, but he's no match for Vito. After knocking him down a couple times Vito tells Eric that he needs to start treating his wife better and stop all the partying and cheating, and if he ever hits her again he'll come back and kill him.

Later that day Francesca calls Vito to tell him Eric apologized and everything is better now. She asks Vito to leave him alone and he agrees, adding in that if Eric ever touches her again he'll kill him. This upsets Francesca, who states that she doesn't know Vito anymore and tells him to stay away from her and Eric from now on.

Losing Everything

As Vito sleeps that night the O'Neill Gang shows up and sets fire to Vito's house. The place goes up quickly, and with no time to even get dressed, Vito jumps out of the window and runs away as the gang opens fire on him. With nowhere else to turn, he goes to see Joe. After Joe shows off his apartment's new decor, Vito explains what happened. Joe makes a few phone calls and gives Vito a change of clothes, then the two head out to deal with the Irish at the Hill of Tara, the gang's hangout in Kingston.

He learns that the gang is now run by Mickey Desmond, but there are others who want to take over so to show he means business he's going after Vito as revenge for killing the gang's former leader Brian O'Neill when he was in prison. They arrive at the bar and take out the remaining members of the gang, but Desmond escapes out the back and Vito and Joe have to chase after him.
