In many ways, Kay is the character that I despise the most.

Kay knew from the opening scene in the first movie EXACTLY what the Corleone family was capable of and she knew that Michael was a part of it when she married him. Then, knowing everything, she went along with the evil for years, but would still try to show moral outrage when it suited her.

Yes, I couldn't agree more. When Michael rejected Kay by marrying another woman, it was clear that he didn't love her, yet knowing that, she agreed to marry him after the death of his wife. How does Michael propose to Kay? By telling her that he wants someone to bear his children. How does she get revenge? By killing one of his children.
