Frank Pentangeli, who did not die in the attack by the Rosato Brothers, has made a deal with the FBI, and will testify against Michael. Tom Hagen and Michael discuss the problem, observing that Roths strategy to destroy Michael is well planned. Michaels brother Fredo has been found and persuaded to return to Nevada, and in a private meeting he explains to Michael his betrayal: upset about being passed over to head the family in favor of Michael, he wants respect and his due. He helped Roth thinking there would be something in it for him, but he swears he didnt know they wanted to kill Michael. He also tells Michael that the Senate Committees chief counsel is Roths man. Michael then tells Fredo: Youre nothing to me now. Not a brother, not a friend, nothing, and privately instructs Al Neri that nothing is to happen to Fredo while their mother is still alive.
At the hearing in which Pentangeli is to testify, Michael arrives accompanied by Pentangelis brother, whose presence causes Frank to recant his previous statements about Michael. When Pentangeli is pressed, he claims that he just told the FBI what they wanted to hear. With no witness to testify against Michael the committee adjourns, with Hagen, acting as Michaels lawyer, loudly demanding an apology.
At a hotel room afterwards, Kay tries to leave Michael, taking their children with her. Michael at first tries to mollify her, but loses his temper and hits her violently when she reveals to him that her recent miscarriage was actually an abortion to avoid providing another child into Michaels criminal inheritance.
