HAHAHAHA. You think that’ll get anything? She’ll just say. “YEP, IT WAS ALL ME. I DID IT, I MASTERMINDED IT! Am I free to go now.”
Lerner is a good soldier who will protect the emperor. Just like in Godfather 2:
Mr. PENTANGELI — Mr. PENTANGELI. Were you a member of the Corleone family? Did you serve under Caporegime Peter CLEMENZA — under VITO Corleone — also known as — “The Godfather”?
PENTANGELI
I — I — I never know no Godfather.I got my own family, SENATOR.
QUESTADT
Mr. PENTANGELI you are contradicting a sworn statement that you previously made to me and signed. I ask you again sir — you are now under oath — were you at any time a member of a crime organization — headed by MICHAEL Corleone.
PENTANGELI
I don’t know nothin’ about that.. Oh — I was in the Olive Oil business with his father but that was a long time ago that’s all.
CHAIRMAN
We have a sworn affidavit — we have it — your sworn affidavit that you murdered on the orders of MICHAEL Corleone. Do you deny that confession, and do you realize what will happen as a result of your denial.
PENTANGELI
Look the FBI guys promised me a deal. So I made up a lot of stuff about MICHAEL Corleone ‘cause that’s what they wanted — but it was all lies — uh — everything. And I kept saying — MICHAEL Corleone did this and MICHAEL Corleone did that — .uh — so I said yea sure, why not.
