GARDNER:
(a little nervous) I've heard a lot about you, Mr.
Corleone.
MICHAEL (O.S.) Sit down. Francie.
The couple sit themselves on the sofa opposite Michael.
SANDRA:
They would like to set an engagement date, and...
MICHAEL:
Let them speak for themselves.
VIEW ON MICHAEL, calm, thoughtful. One can tell that he has special affection for his niece.
FRANCESCA:
We love each other, Uncle Michael.
And, we want to be married. I came to ask for your blessing.
There is a loud KNOCKING on the door; then Fredo's voice.
FREDO (O.S.) Hey, Mike...guess who's here?
Neri goes to answer it, cracks the door open.
NERI:
Not now, Freddie...
FREDO:
Tell Mike Frankie 'Five-Angels' is here.
NERI:
Not now... Neri closes the door, and Michael looks at the nervous young man.
MICHAEL:
Francesca is my oldest brother's daughter. He died many years ago, and ever since I've felt much more of a father than an uncle. I love her very much. I'm pleased and impressed that you had the thought to come to me before going on with your plans. It shows me that you're a considerate man, and will be good to her. What are you studying in college?
GARDNER:
My major is Fine Arts, sir.
MICHAEL:
How will Fine Arts support your new wife?
GARDNER:
It's embarrassing to say, sir, but I'm a major stockholder in the family corporation.
MICHAEL:
(smiling) Never be embarrassed by your wealth.
This recent contempt for money is still another trick of the rich to keep the poor without it.
(warmly) Of course I give you my blessing.
Let's set the wedding soon...it will be my pleasure to give the bride away.
They all smile, and rise.
MICHAEL:
(continuing) ...and take a few courses in Business Administration just to be on the safe side!
