She quickly disappears behind her door. Fanucci laughs, continues up, singing to himself. The MASS outside is always in evidence.
INT. HALLWAY - NIGHT Vito climbs down from the attic, and finds Fanucci's rear door open. He slips in, and makes his way past the open windows, out of which pour the music and chanting of the Mass. Slowly and quietly he pulls them down, shut.
He moves quietly to a glass door, and peeks out.
WHAT HE SEES:
Three young women, Fanucci's DAUGHTERS, laughing and talking.
VIEW ON VITO:
A slip up. Tessio had said they were out. He steps outside to the alley where he can look into the apartment.
ANOTHER VIEW:
Fanucci opens the door of his apartment, and enters.
CLOSE VIEW ON VITO He begins to wrap the gun.
VIEW ON THE DAUGHTERS Their father greets them with a kiss; and a little religious gift he has bought for each.
CLOSE ON THE GUN wrapped in this primitive method of a silencer. The VIEW TILTS to Vito, caught in the dilemma of having to kill all or none of them. Then something catches his eye.
WHAT HE SEES:
A small gray alley cat is attracted to the young man, comes up to him and rubs itself against him. Vito rubs the animal, speaking softly in Sicilian, then, gaining its confidence, lifts it up and carefully lets it into Fanucci's apartment.
He steps back, holding the gun. We HEAR some Italian shouted in the house; a loud sound from the cat, and some of the thumping footsteps of Fanucci.
VIEW ON VITO:
holding the wrapped gun, waiting.
WHAT HE SEES:
The white blob of Fanucci opening the door and cursing in Italian as he throws the cat out.
VIEW ON VITO:
squeezing the trigger; the muffled, but still LOUD BLAST resounding in the building.
VIEW ON FANUCCI:
He holds onto the door frame, trying to stand erect, trying to reach for his gun. The force of his struggle has torn the buttons off his jacket and made it swing loose. His gun is exposed but so is a spidery vein on the white shirtfront of his stomach. Carefully, as if plunging a needle into this vein, Vito Corleone fires a second bullet.
Fanucci falls to his knees, propping the door open, giving a terrible groan. We begin to hear the VOICES of girls inside the apartment.
Vito quickly opens his wallet, removes the two hundred, quickly fires one last bullet into Fanucci's sweaty cheek.
Now the towel the gun was wrapped with catches fire, literally on Vito's hand; quickly he throws it to the ground, stamps it out...and disappears upward.
EXT. THE ROOFTOPS - MED. VIEW - NIGHT Vito moves like a cat along the rooftops; we HEAR the conclusion of the Mass down below.
CLOSE ON VITO:
Pausing; we can SEE the great spectacle of lights and candles on the streets below.
He empties the gun of bullets and smashes the barrel against the side of the roof ledge. He reverses it in his hand, and breaks the butt into two separate halves against the chimney.
He smashes it again, and the pistol breaks into barrel and handle, two separate pieces.
He then moves along the rooftop, dropping the two separate fragments into various air shafts.
EXT. THE STREET PROCESSION - MOVING VIEW - NIGHT The Priest, having completed the ceremony, follows as the Monstrance is carried off through the streets, as the Choir sings.
EXT. THE ROOFTOPS - MOVING VIEW - NIGHT Vito is a dark figure, moving with agility across the rooftops.
