And what is the interest for the Tattaglia family?
My compliments.
I'll take care of them, out of my share.
So I receive 30% for finance,
political influence and legal protection?
That's right.
Why do you come to me? Why do I deserve this generosity?
If you consider a million dollars in cash just finance,
te salud, Don Corleone.
I said that I would see you, because I heard you were a serious man,
to be treated with respect.
But, I must say no to you.
And I'll give you my reason.
It's true, I have a lot of friends in politics.
They wouldn't be friendly long if I was involved in drugs instead of gambling,
which they regard as a harmless vice, but drugs is a dirty business.
It doesn't make any difference to me what a man does for a living.
But your business is...a little dangerous.
If you're worried about security, the Tattaglias will guarantee it.
-The Tattaglias would guarantee our... -Wait a minute.
I have a sentimental weakness for my children, and I spoil them.
They talk when they should listen. But anyway...
Signor Sollozzo, my no is final. I wish to congratulate you on your new business.
I know you'll do well, and good luck.
Especially since your interests don't conflict with mine. Thank you.
Santino.
Come here.
What's the matter with you?
Your brain is going soft from playing with that girl.
Never tell anybody outside the family what you're thinking again.
